BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL

BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL
68. Shopping With Mom



This morning, my mother reminded me of our promise last night. But before I left, my mother took me to sports. One of the things I never did after graduating from high school. I remember very well, just exercising because there are hours of exercise lessons at school, the rest really never exercise, even though it is just jogging around the housing complex.


Apparently in the Ken family, exercise is one of the habits that they always do every day.


If for Ken, I often see him exercising lightly every morning before the move. Just run around the house, treadmill or just independent fitness at home. Even Ken has his tools that until now I do not understand the name and usefulness.


What surprised me was the confession of his mother who stated always exercise routine. It's appropriate that the mother looks fresh even though she has entered the head of six.


Actually, Ken also invited me to participate in sports during the first week of our marriage. But because I always refused, he finally gave up too.


"Nak Rara should start exercising regularly. Just a morning walk around the house, or if lazy out can be a treadmill, yoga or gymnastics. Believe me, with Rara regularly exercising then the health of Rara will be awake. The bonus, can be brighter and look younger because the body is fit." said the mother.


"Yes ma'am, Rara will try." I agreed to mother's invitation.


We both started to get out of the house. The plan is to jog around the field in the complex park. But apparently I miscalculated, because the field is not as small as I imagined.


Just run a quarter of the field it feels like the feet are sore. The itching spreads all over the feet. Maybe the effect of never exercising before, and when it starts immediately shredded without heating so that my energy is immediately drained.


But I can't just lead, let alone ask for a break because I'm reluctant to see a mother who is still excited, even has almost one around the field. In the spirit of forty-five, I forced myself to keep passing.


"Huh huh hah!" my breath began to roam, even though the stone was half a field. With my eyes half closed because I was so tired, I saw my mother still running, entering two rounds. "No, I can't lose. Anyway I have to run as much as possible. You can't see I'm weak. I have to be strong. Come on Rara, show me, make your in-laws dazzle. Although you don't like sports, but you can run a few rounds like mom!" I said, encouraging yourself.


"Son Rara, still running?" ask mom, while balancing my steps.


"Huh, yes Ma'am. Rara also wants to run three rounds like mother." I said, with a breath of breath.


"If you are not strong, do not force it."


"No, insyaAllah Rara is strong. Rara can do it."


"Yes, then. Continue running. I want to finish a little bit of work before we go shopping."


"Yes, Mom."


"Mommy told Tati to accompany nak Rara ya." mom gave a signal to Tati's mom who sat on the sidelines to accompany me to run in the morning. She was asked to follow you by car.


"Mbak Rara turned out to be strong as well as the run "Reveal mbak Tati.


"Yes dong." I said. "Please mbak, later the story is also the same mom, how I really feel to finish this run." My love from the heart, though it will not be heard by Tati.


A little more to the finish line of the first round. But everything turned dark and I fell to the ground.


***


Still dark. Slowly, as my eyes opened, I saw a faint shadow. Ma'am Tita, he's beside me.


"Mbak Rara, are you awake? Thank God, I am really scared of why. Want to go home for help but do not dare also leave mbak alone, I am afraid of why-napa" said Mbak Tati. "Where no one passed by earlier."


"Duh, dizzy." I held my forehead. "What's wrong, why am I sleeping here?" I asked, trying to sit down.


"So Rara fainted."


"Huh, fainted?"


"Yes. Miss Rara forgot? Rara ran away again, then suddenly fell. I immediately chased Rara, then tried to move the mother here."


"Bak Rara's sick, huh?"


"No. I just don't get used to running in the morning. Especially so far."


"Oah. Rara should talk dong, don't force yourself. I don't have to obey everything I do. The Ken family is a hobby of sports. Or if Rara wants to exercise, can start from a light first, do not immediately gass. I didn't feel like this twice."


"Two times? When's? I just fainted once."


"One more time it's not Rara, it's Monika."


"Oh."


"Oh, I'm sorry about Rara. I just remember."


"Yes, that's okay." I said, trying to get up even though the head was still cuddling.


"Where is Rara going?"


"Go home dong."


"Oh yes already."


"Eh, wait a minute. Ma'am Tati had to promise not to tell me what happened when I passed out to anyone, yeah!" my door. It feels ashamed if mom or anyone else knew about the incident just now.


"But there will be no problems that arise later, right?" tati looked hesitant.


"God does not exist. I was just exhausted, understandably, never had a sport, it was directly porsir. That's why it dropped." I explained what I was feeling. "If there is a problem later, then Tati just calm down, I will not make Tati in trouble."


"Rara's every mbak. Hopefully there are no problems ahead of him. Now let's go home mbak, so that mom does not wait long." invite tati.


"Yes, ma'am."


Although still limp, I immediately got into the car led by Tati's mother, after which we slid towards the house.


Arriving home, it turns out mom is ready to go shopping, while I still feel weak.


"How's Rara, we're leaving now huh? I'm waiting in the car." said the mother, pointing at the car. "Bak Tati, it'll be between us."


"Yes ma'am." I immediately went into the house feeling anxious.


"Mbak Rara, if still limp should just talk to the mother so as not to mind later." proposed mbak Tati.


"No, I don't want to. Let it. Now get ready to go. I don't want to disappoint my mother. We're walking now, mbak."


Hurry me right to the room, pick up a beige dress with a matching color hijab. And then change clothes immediately.


"Great seal." I can only complain in my heart. Only Tati knows what happened when I fainted.


"Bak Rara sure it's okay?" tati asked, as we walked towards the car after changing clothes.


"Yes, that's okay" I replied, passing forward to meet the mother who was waiting in the car.
