Anita had the children enter the room, forbade them to play outside, there were some children who were rather wayward and no jg n playing with rain water ,but after Anita reprimanded and got a sharp and cold gaze from Anita made them reticent, immediately entering the room.

The rain increasingly heavy with strong winds and accompanied by lightning that struck make the electricity temporarily cut off.

The deafening thunderclap sound made the child shocked and screamed in fear.

Each hugged Anita,

"Mother, fear." cried the boy named Desi.

"Come here, we gather here,."Anita rolled out a carpet that was very already provided .

Anita has not memorized all the names of the children under her supervision.

All the children approached Anita.

"The rain soon subsides, you have nothing to fear" Anita said slowly.

"Yes Ma'am" said Tito, the youngest among the children under Anita's supervision,.

The child under Anita's supervision sat in the first to third grade classes.

And for three days watching over the child until now there is no problem, but instead they like Anita, even though Anita never once smiled or joked with them like mbok Har.

But Anita always helps those who have difficulty in learning and provides explanations that make the child understand in the lesson.

The rain has begun to subside, the child has lost his fear of returning to play even in the room.

Anita caught a figure sitting quietly without moving in the corner of the room that had not been willing to come closer to gather with her friends.

Indeed, from the first day Anita worked, had known that the child named Rico was a loner, in the classroom there was no friend.

Rico is in third grade .

Anita approached Rico who was sitting in the corner looking out the window.

"Rico, why shut up, don't play with friends.?"ask Anita.

"Rico doesn't like Mom!" sahut Rico ketus's.

" What's going on Rico, mom's story there,"

Rico looked at Anita sharply, Anita who felt a sharp gaze that contained an enormous anger.

"It seems that this child has a problem." muttered Anita.

"If Rico told me, would you laugh at Rico?" tanyanya's worried.

"No Rico, tell me, I'll hear you." said Anita quietly while holding Rico's hands.

"Promise you won't laugh?"

"Mother promise"Anita raised her hand.

Anita looked at Rico who seemed hesitant to speak, Rico looked at her one person to make sure what Anita said was true.

Anita nodded her head"Tell me Rico."

"So Rico hit Rico's friend, in class."

Anita is shocked to hear Rico's confession, "Why Rico

hit her?"

"Because he's laughing at Rico, "The answer is plain.

"Why is he laughing at Rico?"

ask Anita slowly.

Anita sees Rico is rather sensitive and does not want to hang out with his friend.Rico is like harboring pent-up anger.

"He said Rico.ngga had a mama, he laughed mocking Rico, keep Rico beating him." he said innocently.

Anita fell silent, this would definitely be a problem if the child reported to her parents.

"Others he say?"ask Anita slowly.

"She said she was going to report Rico to her mom and dad." said Rico.

Anita took a deep breath.

"Why should Rico hit people? Rico can report to the homeroom, Rico can't be a vigilante." said Anita stroked Rico's head.

"Rico doesn't like him to call mama , Rico does not have mama Mom," said Rico with glassy eyes.

"Where is Mama Rico?"

"Mama Rico has gone a long way, but Rico can at any time visit mama." said Rico plain.

Anita did not understand what Rico said.

"Faraway?"

"Yes, mama's gone a long way since Rico was little."

Anita is getting clueless about what Rico is saying.

Rico looked at Anita who looked confused.

"Mother ..mom still has a mama?"

"Still Rico."

Rico was silent for a moment and sighed.

"How does it feel to have a mama yes, it must be very good, then what do you always want accompanied by mama." said Rico sad

Anita was stunned to hear the words Rico.

Suddenly Anita grabs Rico in her arms, a feeling of tightness fills Anita's chest, as if thousands of hammers were hitting her chest.

Gets warm treatment from Anita, Rico is surprised and indirectly lazy Anita hug.

Just this time Rico felt a warm embrace from someone.The embrace he always missed.

"Rico wants mama to be close to Rico, but can't be ma'am." Rico said.

"If Rico misses being able to find mama, like Rico said earlier."

"But Rico can't hug mommy mommy.'

"Why?"

"Because mama Rico is underground."

Anita's body immediately stiffened when he heard Rico's words.It's worth it Rico was angry when ridiculed his friend, because it was very painful to hear.

Anita kissed Rico's head.Feeling warm treatment from Anita makes Rico increasingly embrace Anita.

Anita also could not say what, every word that was about to come out of her mouth as if lost swallowed back, her heart was very sad, imagine Rico who faced all this alone.

"Rico, don't you be sad, doesn't Rico still have papa,?'

"Still Ma'am, but papa is very busy, Rico's home is just accompanied by his grandmother ."

Anita stared sadly at Rico who was in her arms.

"Tomorrow you must be called to school because Rico hit a friend of Rico, papa must be angry." said Rico worriedly.

"Rico must have been punished by papa ."

"Mom won't let Rico be punished papa, tomorrow I'll talk to papa Rico."

"That's true, Mom."

"Right Rico, I promise, and tomorrow I'll see the principal."

Rico looked at Anita, both clear eyes seemed to be trying to find the truth in Anita.

"Trust me Rico." Anita nodded her head.

"Thank you mom."

Anita noticed Rico's excited face.
