Zarina has completed her education in college with mediocre grades, not too high but also not too low. He is in a mediocre position.

As the fourth of nine children, she grew up to be an independent girl because from childhood she was educated by her parents so as not to be too hopeful for others.

Mr. Adnan is one of the members of the Indonesian National Army who has a firm and authoritative attitude. That character is also owned by Zarina but the difference is, he is a little stubborn.

His parents have a large land and a lot of livestock so that they can send their children to earn a bachelor's degree.

His two brothers, Samsul and Gedi, have also graduated and have become ASNs. Both of them became a teacher and taught at the High School level but were placed in different schools and locations outside the city. While Mira, the oldest sister just finished high school and now married even have three children.

Meanwhile, his sisters are in college and there are also still those who sit in High School and Junior High School.

Bachelor's degree has been carried out and used as capital to migrate to the city of Jakarta because there are close relatives, namely his father's siblings who will take care of everything in connection with the work to be undertaken.

Mr. Adnan and Ms. Dina, zarina's parents said that the departure of her son was hard because in the village where they lived there were no job vacancies except applying in schools to become honorary energy, the amount of incentive was not in accordance with the the weight of work and commonly termed with teachers willingly.

Arriving in Jakarta Zarina did not work as a teacher in accordance with the knowledge he had obtained but he instead applied for a job in several offices and after waiting for a long time finally he got a summons and was accepted at one of the offices as administrative staff after being unemployed for approximately six months.

He was almost desperate in the long wait. Coupled with just hitchhiking for free at relatives' homes, it makes him less comfortable, really, moreover, this aunt also has a daughter who is almost the same age as herself because it is only different a year and now has almost completed her study in college.

Tini, his cousin's sister has a quiet nature and sometimes shows a face that is less friendly. Want to just leave the house if you do not feel indebted because you have got a free ride for several months.

Zarina is very happy when she can work because half the time she spends in the office. However, do not forget he always wake up at dawn and clean up work at home and then leave for the office. In the afternoon he came home and was always greeted with a plate laundry that had been mountainous.

Elis' mother had three children, two boys and one girl. Tini was the first child. Her mother never told or reprimanded her son to do work at home so sometimes Zarina felt that she was really used as a maid in the house.

Elis and Gunawan's mother are a busy working couple. Pak Gunawan teaches at one of the universities in the city of Jakarta and his wife also works as a teacher at SMA Negeri Makmur. Both are also very active in some organizations so they are rarely at home.

Inevitably Zarina had to prepare food for family night as well because people at home would show a less happy face if there was no food ready at the table.

Since Zarina worked and had received a salary in the first month, Elis' mother deliberately did not prepare groceries at home so Zarina used her money to shop for kitchen needs.

"Waduuhhh, aunty's already paid, yeah!" said Ms. Elis with a smile they saw the refrigerator was filled with various vegetables, fish, and meat.

"Yes Aunty" said Zharin with a smile.

"Other times do not bother shopping, just save the money for business capital later. Nih, the new aunt plans to go out for shopping, ehhh. It turns out the refrigerator is full," said I elis pleasantries.

"Yes Aunty" said Zherin again.

One by one they came closer to the dining table and took food according to taste.

"Thank you Zarina, you've done some good shopping and cooking tonight!" said Elis' mother.

"Hard dong Bu, Zarina shopping, she's been hitchhiking for a long time in our house!" say Tini with a ketus. He was not happy to see his mother praise his cousin.

"Get your talk, Tini! Not good, by the way!" hardik Pak Gunawan's.

"Ohh, so well, everyone in this house is more concerned with Zarina than their own children!" tini said with annoyance. He stood up and pushed his seat violently and left them.

Zherin who had faced the food on the plate became sad. His eyes began to glaze over but he tried to hold back the clear, bulir did not escape and his appetite was also gone.

"Sorry Zarina, your sister's words should not be taken away!" said Mr. Gunawan.

"Yes, later if he is hungry will definitely return here," continued Elis' mother.

Zarina just nodded because she could no longer speak.

"Come, we'll eat, brother!" bring Fajar, the youngest child.

Dawn has a different character with her two brothers, Tini and Irfan who are quiet. Dawn often shared stories about her experiences at school with Zarina so that the two seemed familiar.

Zarina commented forcefully on the smile and tried to scoop the rice into her mouth. Although difficult to swallow but he also felt disrespectful if immediately stopped and left the dining table.

Irfan seemed to enjoy his food very much but he never commented until his stomach was full then passed leaving the dining table after sipping a glass of water.

Mr. Gunawan and Ms. Elis were also full and both of them left the dining table and went into the living room to rest while enjoying a TV show.

Zarina lives with Dawn still on the dining table. Dawn was still eating and Zarina waited patiently for her.

"Patient brother, dad!" the word dawn is sad. He wanted to see his cousin's brother hurt by Kak Tini.

"Yes Dek, it's okay, it's normal," said Zharin who tried to look relaxed when in his heart he wanted to quickly wash the dishes and go into the room to vent his complaints

Dawn smiled then parted and followed to the middle room.

Zherin collected dishes and other used furniture and washed them cleanly and after all the work in the kitchen was done she went into the room and cried. The shadow of his parents and siblings in his hometown increasingly made his heart sad.
