A bright morning. Greeting their sun faces. Arouse a passion. What a beautiful morning. The beginning of a step. A step towards a more beautiful life.
The goddess has eyes, when the sunlight starts to enter through the open plywood gap on the eye bead. The woman tried hard to adjust the bias of light around her. Slowly he shifted his body to sit on the couch and slightly stretched the muscles that were so stiffly felt.
Goddesses rising. He swings his legs to approach Sita who is sitting on the edge of his mother's bed.
"Sita, is mom having breakfast?"
The little girl nodded slowly. "Not Brother. Sita forgets that the money from the busking of Sita yesterday has run out. Maybe Sita will busking for a while and after that can only buy rice for mom.
Goddess smiled knot. He reached into the pocket of the pants he was wearing and took some of the money he had prepared for this little girl.
"This is for Sita. Accept it!"
Sita who saw several hundred thousand bills could only open her eyes wide. "Sister, what's this money? And why so much?"
Just like Bhumi did, Dewi grabbed Sita's small hand. Opened the girl's palm and she placed the money sheet in her palm.
"From now on, Sita is at home to accompany her mother. Let the Goddess seek money. Sita can rest at home."
"But Sis...?"
The goddess gently rubbed the hair belonging to this little girl. "Yes, my dear. The situation on the streets is much more dangerous for you, just let Brother find the money."
The girl's lips could only be clenched. Unable to say a single word. Without further ado, Sita clutched tightly onto the body of the Goddess. "Sita has to say what, sister? Sister Goddess is so good."
"You're a good girl, too, honey. If you don't meet Sita, I don't know what will happen to Brother. Maybe Sister Goddess will be a homeless person in this city."
"Thank you Goddess, thank you."
"Samely dear."

The thirty-year-old man seemed focused on the guitar in his hand. Busy tuning the guitar to set the tone of the guitar strings correctly. The man took the tone to give an intro to the lyrics of the song he was about to sing.
"Keep through, forget about you. Tired of your heart, watch your attitude. Your way of thinking makes me doubt. There's no way this can hold."
Bhumi gasps when he will sing himself, there is another voice that first accompanies the passage of his guitar. The man could only smile knots still while continuing his quote.
"You are not everything. Not a place to stop my steps. After it all passed. Let the rain wipe your tracks."
In the end, the two sang together. Just getting to know each other a few days but the closeness of the two is increasingly felt. Cut the distance. And kill all the differences. Fusing, becoming one in a tone.
"Bang, I want to go down the street. Does bang Bhumi want to come?"
Bhumi's forehead is slightly wrinkled. "Has our last night's performance on TMII been exhausted?"
Hurry the Goddess shook her head. "Not Bang. Last night's results were even intact. But what am I supposed to do during the day like this Bang? I was bored of not doing anything. After all, we perform at TMII not every day, right? So if I don't sit around for a long time the money's gone too."
Goddess jerks. He who was previously busy making graffiti on a piece of paper, now he turned his attention towards Bhumi.
"What does Bang Bhumi mean? If not just in TMII, then where else are we going to perform, Bang?"
"There are three cafes where we will perform. And I hope you're prepared to give your best."
The two eyes of the Goddess were perfectly wide. "Three cafes? And that's all I'm the vocalist for?"
Bhumi is now staring at the Goddess's bead. "Are you not able? If you can't, let me perform myself."
Spring, the Goddess shook her head. "No Bang. I'm willing. I can Bang!"
"good. Candidates for a star must be good at taking advantage of opportunities. Who knows, from singing from cafe to cafe, there's a music producer who's going to get you involved."
"Bang Bhumi is sure if I can be a star?"
Bhumi moved from where he currently sits. He swung his legs to stand in the corner of the veranda. He took a sprayer to spray the aglonema plant he had with a little glossy leaf liquid.
"Have you ever heard that what is ingrained in our minds is something we will get?"
The goddess shook her head. "No Bang. I've never even heard of it."
"If you believe that one day you will become a star. Later it will become a reality. But if you have doubts, then it will all be mere wishful thinking."
"Is it really like that?"
"Yes, it's like that. Don't be afraid to dream. Because life can start from a dream. There are only two choices. We soon wake up to make that dream come true. Or do we stay asleep and lulled so that forever just be a flower of sleep alone."
A pair of Goddess's heart windows suddenly heated up. It forms dew points that make it a little difficult to breathe. There is a feeling of tightness in the chest that is difficult to fall.
Is the Goddess hurt by the words of Bhumi? Of course not. The goddess actually felt full in digesting every word spoken from the lips of this man. Strangers who he did not know at all but so have a big role in his efforts to achieve dreams.
"Bang, who are you really? Why are you so totally looking for opportunities for me, to be able to achieve that dream?"
Bhumi's forehead is wrinkled deep. "Who am I? Have we never met before? Do we have to repeat our introductions?"
"I feel like you're an angel God sent me. Your existence seemed to open the way for the realization of my dreams."
Bhumi smiled faintly. He felt that the woman in front of him was too hyperbole. "You're overreacting. I'm just an ordinary man not an angel like you said."
"But I feel like it's Bang. Ever since I've known you, I've come to believe that someday I can achieve my dreams and dreams."
"That's just your feeling. All of this can be the fruit of your patience, your sincerity in the face of all the injustice you have ever received. And I'll order you one thing."
"What is a Bang?"
"Be a good person. For it is your kindness that will also bring you good. Including being surrounded by good people."
Dropped already beads of dew in the eyes of the Goddess. For the umpteenth time this man's speech is able to penetrate the recesses of the heart. He put it in one corner of the heart. Stuck, impaled, he will never forget what Bhumi said.
