Aunt Melinda

Is There a Burden?

Linda had just walked up to the door, when Danang came.

"Where are you going Linda?" asked Danang, who was passing by his sister, at the door.

"Eh... You have come. Ma'am wants to go out for a second. I want to buy food."

"Do not need to. This Danang already bought," said Danang, by showing the package of crackle that he was about.

"Oh..."

Linda's mouth was just breaking. He eventually retreated, then turned around. Walk after Danang enters. Because earlier, he blocked Danang's path at the door.

"Mother isn't human yet?" Danang asked, when he saw the condition of his father who was still the same, as when he stayed to go home this afternoon.

"So it was rumored. Now you're sleeping?" linda answered, explaining to Danang.

"Something, sir?"

Danang asked again, because he wanted to know. How was his father when he left.

"So. Father didn't say anything. Just shut up and look at us. But..."

"But what's Ma'am?" ask Danang quickly.

"He seemed to be looking for your whereabouts earlier. You're the only one who wasn't there."

The answer given by his mother, made Danang nod his head. He felt that his father wanted to tell him something.

But Danang doesn't know either. Whether his guess is right or wrong. He was just guessing.

"Yes, Mom. Let's eat first! Although in the hospital, we also do not have to be sick, just because waiting for people who are sick is also right?"

"Ihss... You can just."

"Hehehe.. You are this."

"Hehehe..."

Danang followed the crybaby, hearing the words of his mother and older sister.

Now, the three of them were enjoying dinner together. With the food that Danang brought.

Although the place is in the hospital, but they feel as if they are being retired. When Linda was not married.

Unfortunately, none of his fathers ate either. Even though there were three of them, because they were lying in the current state.

"No. You are going to work tomorrow! Ma'am who took off guard father. Tomorrow, please ask permission or take two days off. Go straight to HRD, to Pak Yus is okay. It's urgent."

"Ohhh, yeah. Two days, right?" tomorrow Danang change who take care of you. So, demand a cut tomorrow as well."

Linda nodded in agreement with Danang's words. Because the two of them, indeed had to take turns to look after their father.

"Today, Linda went home first to my mother's house. Mas Ferry and Erli were at home" Danang said, explaining to Linda. If the child and her husband are in the house of her mother. They stay at home.

"Yes. I also called Mas Ferry. Just be back again. It's still eight."

Linda looked at the watch on her wrist, and let out a long sigh. He actually wanted to accompany his mother and also Danang. To wait for his father.

But he must rest first. Because tomorrow morning, he also has to take care of his father. Accompanying her mother, who did not want to go home, even if only for a short time.

So, Linda and Danang alternately consciously. To take care of his father who is in a state of illness in the hospital.

When the clock was showing at eight o'clock at night, Linda said goodbye to her mother and sister. He'll be home first, and will be back tomorrow morning. Alternate with Danang who will go to work.

"Sir. Linda went home first, sir. You're healthy again soon."

A few moments later, after Linda came home.

Linda's mother asked her son. That's Danang. He wanted to ask about how it works in the factory, where both of his children work also in the company.

"No. Working in a factory is hard, right?"

"Why Ma'am?"

"It's okay. Ask away. How many work in the factory today."

Andang guessed what his mother really wanted to say. What possible...

"Your sister, he said he wanted to go out. What is the term.. re. ri.. what the hell, forget Mom. It's hard to spell_nya."

What Danang was thinking, was cut off just like that. Because he heard his mother's words.

Danang was surprised too, hearing the words spoken by his mother just now. She never knew if her brother had any plans to quit his job at the factory.

Especially with the position owned by Linda at this time. Not everyone can quickly be in a supervisory position. And, of course, with a large salary allowance.

Maybe, when compared to the salary he received, Danang was still less big than his brother.

"No. Do you see Linda often, if you're at work?" His mother asked back. About the situation inside the factory.

Danang nodded a few times. Because all this time, even though they are both in the same company. But I can't meet easily. If it wasn't for some very important interest, or making an appointment by calling each other over the phone.

"Never see that? One factory."

"The factory is big, Mom. That's just one village, right?"

His mother nodded in agreement with the words spoken by his son. He did know, that the factory where his children worked was very large and spacious.

Even arguably if, the land area used for factory land, is equal to one village, which is not too large.

In simple words, Danang tried to give an explanation to his mother. About the situation inside the factory. In the way they each work.

"Oh... So you're different at work with Linda?"

Danang nodded at his mother's question.

"How hard doesn't it work?"

Now, his mother again asked, about the work done in the factory.

"Depends on each one's work, ma'am. And most importantly, it depends on the person who lives it too."

"Often whatever work is done, if the person does not like and is not responsible. Yeah, it feels heavy."

"Just like Mom's work in the fields. I don't think it's heavy, do you? But according to others, it could be if mom's work in the rice fields is heavy."

Now, his mother nodded her head. He began to understand the meaning of the words spoken by his son.

"Hopefully, your mother is out not because of the workload she has. But because two want to take care of their home. Especially with Erl. Poor him too."

Now, replace Danang who nodded his head. Heard her mother's words just now.

She hoped that, what her brother's plan was, was not because of the rumors she heard at work.

She felt that, there was a burden of thought that her brother had.

Danang could only pray for his older sister, so that whatever she did. It is a decision made with careful thought. Not just a momentary emotion.
