I just got home and looked at my two brothers sitting sweetly in the living room in school uniforms they hadn't changed. While I was watching the news on tv.
"Have you gone home, brother? Why not say hello when you come in?" Mama said as she headed to the living room while carrying a bowl of hot banana godok laced with brown sugar.
"Ah.. forgot ma," I replied lightly.
"Everything get used to my sister saying greetings every time she enters the house, the time must always be remembered mama continues," said my sister named Rani.
He is the youngest child in our family. He was interested in learning religion from childhood. That's probably because his childhood was spent more often with his mother, different from me who was always with his father, he knew playing and playing.
Rani is not only obedient to religion but unfortunately she also has something to lose, namely being able to see the subtle creatures that we usually call ghosts. At first Rani was very frustrated, she was really scared, even had to skip school because it continued to be disturbed by invisible creatures. But gradually he began to get used to it but his personal affection became more closed. Because a lot of friends are staying away from him because Rani is different from them.
That's what I don't understand, from a small child the children are already good at setting aside and cornering his friends who are different from them. Even making fun of and bullying her friend just because it's a little different. Finally what happens to the children who are set aside is an anti-social person.
But every shortcoming that children have is not their desire. They also want to have a normal life like their other friends. But alas, fate says otherwise, God gave them a burden even from them being small. And unfortunately my sister got the burden. Why not just me?.
Father and mother are two people who are opposite each other.Mama is so obedient with her religion other than with father, she never even prayed once from childhood. But even so he always told us to fulfill our duty as servants of God, namely obedient worship 5 times.
Dad often said that he was from childhood never taught his parents to pray, so this is the result now. But another is with us. Even though my father never prayed, he always forced us to worship and said not to follow in his footsteps.
But it seems like my little brother exactly the second child in this family does not want to listen to my father. He was determined not to pray. As for me, even if I am not so smart about religion, I still pray 5 times and close my aura, even if it is only sober. Because I'm afraid that mom and dad will be angry.
You could say I'm the only child my father and mother have never been angry with. I always wanted to obey them. I don't want to make them sad just because I didn't obey them. The other with my two sisters. They are more often opposed if what the parents tell them is not what they want.
As of this moment, just as I was sitting right next to my mother, my younger brother Rudi quickly rejected what my father had told him.
"I don't want well, especially if I'm already in 3rd grade Junior High, when do I have to change schools? The responsibility?" rudi's refusal.
"Okay, how about you deck?" Now I look back at Rani. Rani who was asked just shook her head while eating the banana godok that was served by the mother earlier.
"Huh..," mama sighed. "When is that your sister?" mom touched my thighs and smiled.
"What? Why brother? And what was that talking about?" I swear I was confused. Just come on all of a sudden mom tells me to do things I don't know what for. They should have clearly passed on to me before suddenly making me one of the candidates in this debate.
"Why should Risa ma'am?" I asked with a protest tone. Not to care for grandma in the village. The only problem is that from the time I was born until now I was 19 years old I was never far from my parents. I was afraid that I would suddenly be far away from them. Yes, although I am the oldest child, but in fact I am the most spoiled child and taken care of by my parents.
Not only where I go to school but who's my friend has to be in the parent selection. So if the number of friends can probably be counted using fingers. That's why I prefer to be alone because basically I do not have a broad association.
"Rudi is already in 3rd grade, there is no way she moved schools, while Rani she is still in 5th grade, she is still a child, where she can take care of grandmothers in the village. So your choice is to stay sa, you are also finished school and anyways you are big, surely can take care of grandma and keep home? Is it the same, huh..?" Mama said while rubbing my shoulder.
"OK on... When should Risa leave?"
"Tomorrow," replied the father briefly densely and clearly.
I nodded and forced myself to smile. I really don't want them to be disappointed. After the banana doll ran out on the table I went to the room, packed up the things I needed to bring with me during my grandmother's stay.
I don't know how long I've been there. A year? 5 years? Or even decades. I do not know, and also not in the mood to ask my parents, maybe now is the turn of an independent Risa and away from both parents.
"Risa's Spirit.... You can't be flabby" I said shouting in the room as I clenched my hands up.
"Why are you shouting Risa???" Oops.
"Eh... No ma. , '" I yelled again to answer Mom's question.
When packing things. I remembered something. " Oh yes.buy indomie ah... Let it be later in the village do not need to fiddle anymore," I said as I walked out of the room.
"Sir... Where are you going?" ask Rani, who has now changed her school dress to a casual fashion shirt.
"You want to go to the minimarket deck, come along?" ask me who answered nod by Rani.
"Yes, yuk," I immediately took the keys of the honda on the tv table.
"Home home do not go to my sister, remember tomorrow must go to the village," Mama's message to me.
"Sip ma," I also drove the bike to the minimarket with Rani behind me.
