College Or College Ah?

I need him (actually)

I told you this morning I had a show at home, actually it was true that there were a lot of my brothers who came to see Dad. Father's condition is quite alarming, understand Father is rarely sick and once sick must be treated and diagnosed with a stroke.

Dad had fallen in the bathroom, maybe it was the effect until there was a blood clot that froze and made him stroke. Mom was very worried, so Dad took a leave of absence and decided to bedrest. While Dad was on leave, Mom was busy working to provide for our daily needs.

Actually Dad and Mom's savings are enough, but that's for my sister's school reserves and the cost of renovating the house. So, you have to turn your brain to look for extras here and there.

My brother, I sell snacks and totebagku products. Fortunately, he was happy to offer it to his friends at school. Of course I gave him the percentages, so he could help me.

The result turned out to be good for my sisters' pocket money. They don't have to ask Mom for it. I can also save up for college next semester.

"Mom, I have savings... hefty 2millions, what if we open a wholesale? Or not a grocery store in front of the house? There are former storefronts that can continue to use the terrace as well" I said as we ate breakfast together.

"Yes ma'am agreed, anyways it's a long holiday let him have activities" ledek my sister.

"You should also help me get home from school" I said.

"Yes Mother is up to you, at least Mother can increase her capital so that not too few items" replied Mother.

"Okay, if so you clean tomorrow the same window the front room of the former garage was tidied. We made a stall there" I said, patting my sister on the shoulder.

Dad looks happy and relieved to see our compactness, I think this will be good for Dad's health because at least Dad will also have activities other than a total rest at home that is not typical of Dad that much.

Dad could occasionally keep a stall or help me there to count.

"Aah, I can't wait for you tomorrow" I said excitedly.

Her night....

I checked the incoming orders on stagram for totebag and pouch, thank goodness the results were decent. There are almost 30 pcs ordered in every 3 days. Hanifa must be glad that her business idea went smoothly like this.

Arika and Nunu also worked hard to promote our totebag, really good teamwork.

On the sidelines of my busy life, I miss Andreas. I do call him every day almost three times a day even more sometimes. But it felt like hearing his voice alone was not enough back then. Especially when I really need encouragement to be stronger in dealing with problems in my family.

Stroke that makes Dad can not walk for a while and also makes Dad can not talk normally very hit me.

Week pass....

I ran downstairs to Dad's room, I saw Dad was having a seizure and like shortness of breath. I immediately called Mom and ordered a taxi online to take Dad to the hospital.

"Ran, close the stall. Lock all the doors, send Recca to Aunt Irma" I said.

(Recca is the name of my youngest sister who is only 10 years old while a younger brother named Randy)

I was very panicked and tense at the time because during the trip Dad was unconscious. Randy was crying, but I couldn't cry in front of him because I was firstborn and had to stay strong even though I wasn't scared either.

Arriving at the hospital...

The doctor checked Dad's condition and said he had narrowed blood vessels. I asked Mom to listen to the doctor's explanation because I didn't understand.

Until when Mom came to us in front of the doctor's office, Mom said that Dad should be operated on immediately.

I feel my heart is getting sicker, seeing Dad constantly drop at home I have no heart especially now it turns out Dad had to be in surgery.

I reported Hanifa, Arika and Nunu in the chat room. They were also shocked and said they would visit this afternoon.

"Rain, we'll go there and send your name and room number" Hanifa said.

"Edelweiss Room number.7" I answered.

They actually came and gave me a warm hug.

"Rain's got a new story?" ask Arika.

"Yes, I didn't expect Dad to drop it either" I replied.

"Rain, you're ngabarin Andreas? You guys promised you'd tell each other if there was anything" asked Nunu.

I sighed, sat on the chair and lowered my head.

It was actually a week ago that I wanted to inform Andreas, but I was afraid that I would just interrupt his vacation. I don't want her to worry either and again every time she calls I have to always insist on holding back my tears.

"No, I'm afraid he's worried" .....
