A Pair of Lotus Flowers

Lotus Flower Tattoo

Tomorrow when I was about to leave for school, Beni's brother was waiting for me in the living room.As usual he wanted to take me to school.Without breakfast first, I immediately asked Beni to take me to school immediately.

(After school)

"His graduation letter should be taken by his parents, right, Ra?" Ask Beni.

"Yes, brother" I answered gloomily.

"Yes, my sister took her graduation letter?"

"Don't take a brother, Nara later take it alone.Kak quickly go to campus, later in the afternoon do not have to pick me.I want to go first with Siska."

"Where's Nara going?" Ask Beni curious.

"Some, it's not a big brother's business anyway don't need to pick me up" I replied.

I immediately opened the car door and left.The atmosphere of my heart is indeed being messed up today.But I feel guilty also because it has been tiring to Brother Beni.

"Nara, how about going home later we take a walk first" Invite Siska.

"Where to walk?I also want to take you to the mall anyway"

"Gapain to the mall, mending you come with me aja.Kita make hehehe tattoo" Whisper Siska while grinning.

"Crazy lo, even though we have graduated High School where maybe I can get permission to use a tattoo" said I.

"Yes lo tattoo in a place that is not too flashy."

"Don't do it, just ask for anter."

"Oh, you suck Ra" Ejek Siska told me.

The graduation notice was already given to the parents of the students, because my parents were not there so I tried to meet my homeroom teacher to request a graduation letter.

"Mom, I want to take my graduation letter" I told my homeroom teacher Ms. Nina.

"Where are your parents, Nara?how did you even take it?"

"Emm my parents are busy mom, so I'm the one who has to take it myself."

"Oh that, it's already your graduation letter yes" said Ms. Nina while giving an envelope.

I slowly opened the envelope.I read slowly the contents of the letter and as I expected, I PASSED.There were no doodles at my school.So after the distribution of graduation letters, the children went straight home or celebrated outside.

"Ra,ayo we're leaving now" Take Siska to me.

"Lo sure you want to go to the tattoo?wearing school uniforms?"

"Where are you" I replied resignedly.

We finally went to Siska's house.The house is in the elite complex of South Jakarta area.But unfortunately the luxury house is only filled by Siska and her sister and some household assistants.Because both parents are always busy working abroad, their daily needs are taken care of by their domestic assistant.

"Nih Ra, you try my clothes !" Tell Siska while throwing her clothes on the bed.

"This is your shirt nothing normal?Time all open clothes rich gini.His arm is just next to it, just cover the chest doang.Gue shame make Siska..." I shouted at Siska.

"Ribet really lo, already use it there."

Finally, I was forced to choose the clothes that exist.Set black color with a little show part of my stomach.After finishing changing clothes, after changing clothes,we immediately went to the tattoo place Siska meant.Actually I was a bit tense because I had only first entered such a place.

"Lo still don't want to get a tattoo, Ra?Honey we are here" Siska said.

"Don't be, just enough lo aja.Gue just wait here aja?"

While waiting for Siska to make her tattoo, I tried to send a message to mamah and papah.I sent a photo of my graduation letter to the two of them.Papah immediately replied to my message with congratulations and do'a, he said,I feel guilty because before Papah left I didn't even want to see him.

Unlike papah, you just read my message.I do not know what it means, but suddenly you send a lot of photos.When I open the picture, I open the picture,it turns out that it is a mamah photo with his girlfriend who is still young.Even maybe his age is not much different from Beni's sister.

My heart beats hard because all the emotions rule me.I am very sad, but it does not make me cry.There is only a sense of resentment and hatred on my mother.

Siska tattoo is finally finished.Two pieces of tattoo stuck on his back and arms.I suddenly thought, do I also have to try to make a tattoo?I thought maybe the pain of a tattoo could relieve the pain of seeing a photo of my mom with her boyfriend.

"Sis, I want to try getting a tattoo too" I told Siska.

"Seriously lo, Ra?You're not gonna mrs?" Tanya Siska assured.

"Gue seriously, you won't be feeling comfortable either."

"So where do you want a tattoo and what?You see, my customers are still many" asked the tattoo artist who had noticed us.

"Gue wants a lotus bang flower tattoo, can you?yes, more or less rich gini" said I while showing an example of the image I was looking for on the internet.

"Well, how can you be calm, so where do you want to be in the picture?" Say it while preparing.

"Tattoo here bang" I said as I pointed to my right payu*ara.

"It turns out you're quietly drifting too huh?you can ask for a tattoo there" said Siska meledekku.

"Shuuut is noisy lo Sis, even though you yourself are telling to make a tattoo in an inconspicuous place"

The tattoo process began, I cried withstanding the pain of every needle that hit my skin.Finally the Lotus flower tattoo that contains the meaning of the spirit to overcome the misery of life and perfection was finished.I am satisfied with the results of the tattoo, I am satisfied with the results of the tattoo,now all I can do is cover this tattoo from papah.
