Bryan was preparing to take a shower when Nimas knocked on the door. The woman went into her son's room after receiving an answer from the child.
"Will I take a shower?"
"Yes. But still there is sweat. Mother why come here? Later nangis sister."
"Cong you say that? Mother's child is not just a sister, but a sister as well. Brother anyone want to talk to Mother? Or maybe you want something, want something? Mommy once told Sister not really, if you harbor feelings or there is something you want to ask, there are things that block, it must be said, must be asked, must be asked, because it can eat away at our good hearts to be bad. Because we hold it alone, we become guessing, guessing what really happened, because we do not tell the same story. So finally there is hatred and jealousy because our minds are wrong."
Bryan was silent.
"Mother should what let sister tell the same Mother? Brother wants to make Mother the same Father sad, yes the same attitude Brother who changed this? We know that Big Brother is quieter and his face looks sad. Why, what's up?"
"I'm upset because Mommy is the same Daddy cares more and loves the sister than the same me. Since sister was born, the same father Mother so reduced unfortunately the same I, so unfortunately only to younger brother. I think everyone has forgotten. When I was in the hospital, when my sister came home, it all left me alone to see my sister. Everyone focus on the sister."
Bryan finally opened his voice because he was bored since yesterday asked the same thing by both parents.
"Even this morning Mother did not realize that I was near Mother. Mommy just cares about the younger brother who does not cry negur, I nyapa me. I'm invisible, aren't I?"
"It's not. Yes Mother admitted Mother was wrong for this morning, Mother apologized. Mommy just wants Mira's sister not to disturb his sleep Dad. Father last night stayed up guard the sister who woke up changed. Mommy should what let sister forgive Mother?"
Bryan mute.
"Son, neither Father, Mother, you, all humans must have been wrong. There are moments where he is sometimes fair sometimes not, it is human. If indeed what you did was very hurt Brother, Mother apologizes. Mother same Father promised to try as much as possible to share the same time with sister and brother. Father's love for Mother is not likely to decrease or move to a younger sister. There are no parents who do not love their children. No one should think like that. Try to mingle with sister, mingle with others. Brother will feel the same affection as before sister was born. If Big Brother continues like this, Big Brother will feel alone and what you feel will continue. Now there is no sweat, I take a bath, yes. Mother wait, we'll have breakfast."
Bryan according. The boy passed from his mother and went into the bathroom. Nimas prepares clothes for his son.
Bryan took a bath with a slightly open mind. Just a little, because there was still something else in his heart. But he didn't have the courage to talk about it. He felt that the question was hard to say and might just be answered.
Finished with the ritual of bathing and dressing, the child and mother just went straight to the dining table which turned out everyone had gathered in the room that was always full of food. Nimas stopped his son's steps.
"Look at that, Brother Sister's family is dear to Brother, right? They don't eat if they haven't arrived. They want to eat together as usual. Before my sister was born this way too, right? If Brother comes down late, we're all waiting for Brother? It's still the same now, isn't it? That means what Mother asks."
"really so. It used to be fitting Brother was born also like a sister was born, everything so focus his attention to Brother."
Bryan nodded his head in understanding. The move continued after a short chat that fortunately could open Bryan's mind slowly.
Everyone behaved as usual, spoiling Bryan by serving the boy want to eat what and get it for him. While in the twins who also felt at the dining table with the box was asleep, as long as they were not disturbed by the boisterous adults who were chatting.
A week after that day, little by little Bryan returned as usual though not completely. Tomorrow is his birthday, usually, Father and Mother the day before his birthday, he will be asked by them to be celebrated where and what gifts? For his first leg, Bryan was not asked today anything related to gifts or birthdays. All of you are silent and seem to forget that tomorrow is your special day.
It wasn't the event or gift Bryan wanted. Just saying happy birthday and praying is enough.
"Good afternoon everyone, Nino came again. Look Om bring what to Om's favorite pounding." Nino and her father sit on the porch, joining Shaka and Nimas with their three children.
"Om gonna go get Grandma, okay? Sepong dong home if Grandma comes home." Bryan slightly ignored the paper bag offered by Nino.
"It's quieter where is Grandma's house in the village? Here, Bryan has a sister, Oma, Opa. There was a friend. Nih, Om bring by - by Bryan."
Bryan opened it, there were several pieces of clothing and also two pants. There were also some toys in the paper bag. Bryan was happy, finally someone remembered that he was tomorrow's birthday.
"Main, yuk Om!"
Without Nino's consent, Bryan drags the man into the house soon after, Nimas' father comes to the porch and brings one of his twins for him to bring into the house.
"Mas, how? Surprise for Bryan? It's the document, right?"
"This is what I'm going to take. Take a decor. Let's go to midnight and work with Nino."
Shaka then got up from his seat and turned his feet to the garage.
