uncomfortable

during the trip, I just kept looking at the window, I don't know there was anxiety and discomfort that filled my heart and brain, I know, I shouldn't have to worry, because I'm going to go and go with my own family, but I don't know, the unpleasant and uncomfortable feelings continue to haunt these thoughts.

arriving at the budhe house, budhe is my mother's older brother, and om Huda is her daughter-in-law, husband of budhe daughters, om huda works as a PNS, and, he served as the principal of one of the high schools in his city.

when I got out of the car, Budhe had greeted me with a friendly and warm smile, I was welcome to come in and take him to one of the rooms in his house, budhe asked me to rest first, but I don't know, I don't know, why is this feeling getting so bad, I feel like something bad is going to happen to me, O Lord, may my prejudices not be true.

because I felt awkward and unwell, I chose to get out of the room, and meet budhe in the back room, I saw budhe was sitting relaxed while watching tivi.

seeing me out, Budhe frowned and asked why I did not rest, I also only replied if I was not used to sleeping during the day.

finally, I talked to Budhe a lot, talked to him, about whatever it was about the past budhe with his sister, including there was a story of my mother there.

do not feel the time is very fast passing, chatting apparently does not remember the time, because it is fun to chat unconsciously if the time has crawled late afternoon, but has not been heard adzan ashar, but has not been heard, but the look of the clock on the wall already showed at four in the afternoon, in a hurry I went to budhe to carry out my five-time obligation first, after which I intend to help clean the yard, and then I intend to help clean the house, I realize, here I'm just hitchhiking, so it's inappropriate, if I'm lazy.

after doing my duty to the owner of the universe, I hurried to take a broom, and began to sweep all the courtyards of the house is very spacious, yes the house budhe is very large and nice, indeed, it seems that they are very wealthy people.

the two-story house was quite large, and I was alone cleaning it, tired of it for sure, but when I remembered my purpose here was to continue school and to be able to help my mother reduce her burden, I try to stay positive so that my soul remains sane.

after finishing sweeping, mopping and watering the plants, I decided to take a shower, first of all I was willing to enter magrib time, when I went to the bathroom, I wanted to go, there was a voice from Mbak irma that made me stop my steps.

mbak Irma is the wife of om Huda, more precisely my budheku daughter, at this hour mbak Irma just appeared, there is no way she just woke up, because of her neat appearance, it could be, so, he just got home from traveling.

mbak Irma asked me when I came, she was also quite friendly in welcoming me, and it appeared that her stomach was also bulging, "is she pregnant"? I asked in my heart.

the lifestyle of the rich is indeed different from those of us, whose time is just struggling with how to fight to be able to meet the needs of life, let alone the road, rest as if it had been our dream.

Nb : here the character om Budi changed his name with om huda , because there are considerations to change the name of the character and of course to maintain the privacy of the actual character, thank you 🙏
