Destiny Love Maira
New Friends (Erika)



Erika was sitting on a city park chair with her sad face. Sitting alone with a heart that is truly restless and afraid. Tears had just dried up after almost an hour of crying there.


Erika doesn't know what to do now, she wants treatment, but where's the money?


Should he go home and ask his parents?


Erika immediately smiled bitterly and shook her head slowly. His eyes water again and dam water if he remembers his parents.


Erika missed, but her longing was not avenged. Erika wants to go home, but she has been kicked out of the house, no longer even considered a child.


Where will Erika complain? Where will he share this pain?


Although this pain also came and came from his own family. His kidneys were forcibly taken and also the evil they asked him to do.


And now, to go back asking for a little pity, is that possible?


Even to just ask for college, they are so angry. Moreover, asking for money for medical expenses for his illness. Which will definitely not be cheap.


Once a week has to wash the blood, it requires a lot of money, from which Erika gets her. His salary for a month is only two million. It was also just enough for his daily needs. Although there is a kitchen at home, Erika does not know cooking. So all rely on the results of his little work to eat.


And now he's got to get treatment, where's the money.


And if not treated, his kidneys will get worse. And maybe he could die too.


Oh Allah...


Erika's confused.


If he continued to live, he would only live in everyone's hatred. But if he dies? Will they all be happy??? Especially his father and mother.

Erika's tears spilled on her face. Why is this sick, God.


So hurt...


Erika was fine if she was called this fast.


Erika only hoped that if she died already in a forgiven state.


But what could it be, if everyone hated it. Will God accept this repentance?


And again, if he were to die, would he die in solitude?


Does anyone care for the body???


Astarghfirullah...


Erika immediately spoke Istighfar many times and wiped her tears back.


Why does he doubt God like this.


"Yes Allah... Sorry ... Sorry" muttered Erika who was still sobbing.


Never mind...


Resign, let all God determine. It's okay to be called quick, it's not better.


Most importantly now, Erika had to better prepare herself for the day.


May when God takes his life, he be well and accepted.


Aami...


"sister..why are you crying?"


The question of a child made Erika gasp. He immediately turned his head to the side and looked at a girl of about six years old with a fir face and a dirty shirt.


"Are you sad anymore?" Ask the girl.


Erika smiled and shook her head.


"Don't be sad, later if sad to be caught by evil om" he said in an adorable voice.


"What are you doing here? Not school?" Erika asked as she wiped the tears on her face. His voice still sounded stingy and hoarse. Even his sobbing is still heard occasionally. But the arrival of this little girl turned out to be able to divert her sadness.


"I didn't go to school, again waiting for Abang ngamen. Tuh" pointed at the intersection of the red light, making Erika also immediately turned her head there. Where there was a little boy who was singing with a makeshift instrument.


Erika looked at the little boy fixedly. He sings from one of his other camp cars.


"You're not in school. Where are your parents?" Ask Erika again


"We don't have any parents. Want to go to school with no money" answered this little girl so innocently.


Erika immediately felt touched to hear him.


"No brother?" Ask Erika again.


And the little girl immediately shook her head.


Erika was stunned, she looked back at the little boy who was still busking there. And somehow arrived Erika's heart became sad again.


If she had only looked down on them, Erika now knew why they were there.


Oh Allah...


At times like this you send this child to him. What that means is that Erika should be able to be grateful. If he wasn't the only one poor in the world..There is still something much harder.


Look at these kids, they don't go to school, they don't have parents. And must work to survive. At this small age.


Erika should know and be more grateful for her life. Even though he was at his worst at the moment. But at least he has never felt the luxury first, even if only limited to falsehood.


Tears fell back on her face, making the girl cry again.


"Aren't you crying again?" Ask the boy.


"No, my sister doesn't cry anymore" replied Erika.


"Whose name are you?" Ask Erika. Trying to cover up her grief again.


"I'm Ayu sis" replied the boy.


"Where do you live?" Ask Erika again


"Where, sometimes played, sometimes under the bridge there" said the boy again.


Oh Allah...


It's so sad to hear it.


"Just....!!" The cry of the boys running towards them made Erika turn her head towards him.


"Don't like Deket Deket same people. You must be bothering this brother, right?" Say the boy while pulling ayu away.


"Sir, Ayu just a lot, why is this brother crying" Ayu replied.


The boy looked at Erika.


"It's not bad, brother. Sorry my sister yes" he said sounding so mature, even though he was still very small. Maybe ten more years.


"What's up. Your sister is not naughty" replied Erika.


"Aren't you getting any money?" Ayu asked, but the boy smiled and nodded


"Udah, look get four thousand. We will buy bread" he replied.


Uhhh again Erika's heart was sliced hearing this.


"You haven't eaten yet?" Ask Erika


"Not yet, from last night. I don't have a lot of money, so I can't buy rice. Just buy bread" said Ayu


"huss, be grateful. It can't be" said the boy.


"Sister has not eaten, we eat together with yuk" asked Erika.


"Do not, brother, we can buy bread" the boy refused. And can Erika see if Ayu immediately bowed sadly.


"What's up. You can tell your sister where a good place to eat but cheap, so we can eat a lot" asked Erika again. His glassy eyes continued to look at these two children. He felt that their fate was not much different.


"But I'm not good brother" the boy bowed sadly. He seemed to bear such a heavy burden at such a small age.


"What's up. Brother is just like you. My sister has no one else. You don't want to talk to your sister, do you?" Ask Erika. His sad face was not a lie. And it made the boy look at his sister who looked at Erika with pity.


"Don't have any friends?" Ask Ayu.


"Nobody wants to be friends with my sister" replied Erika.


"Pity brother" Ayu said to her sister.


"Erika's sister's name" Erika immediately stuck her hand at the boy.


"Akbar sis" replied the boy, he really hesitated to shake Erika's hand.


"We're friends, yes, today I'm sad, and I need friends. Want it" asked Erika with her face.


"Aren't you ashamed of us?" Ask Akbar.


"No" answered Eric


"Yuk we go" asked Erika who immediately moved from her seat.


"hore.. have a beautiful sister friend" cried Ayu so excited. Akbar who had been hesitant now began to smile, even he let Erika hold his hand and go to the food stall five feet on the side of the road.


Erika was very happy to meet these two children. Besides being able to give him a life journey. They could also divert Erika's sadness and fear about her condition.


And finally, that afternoon Erika ate with the two children on the side of the road. He was no longer awkward, because for two months Erika had only eaten cheap food like this.


They ate voraciously, even Erika no longer paid attention to the healthy food she had to eat. He doesn't have enough money for that. Perhaps now, he only wanted to share with this child whenever he had money. Yes it's better than raising money for his treatment that it's not clear whether he can recover or not.


And without Erika noticing, if ever since, there was someone watching her from afar. Dare not to approach, only dare to stare.


Looking at the wonder, why Erika had been able to change.


Ervan..


He still had no idea what he saw today.
