Nindi and the Princess looked at Erika who was sitting together with two small children. And what makes them not to think is, the appearance of Erika who looks so changed. He's been hijab-wearing and wearing a robe now.
Masha God...
Nindi and Princess really can't believe seeing this. It's been a few months they've never met, and they think Erika went to college out of town or out of the country. But it turns out Erika is still here, with a changed appearance as well.
This afternoon the princess and Nindi came out to look for the peek of Maira's wish. And it was unexpected that they even met Erika.
"Erika, it's you, right?" Nindi asked who was directly approaching Erika.
Erika looked awkward and smiled faintly looking at Nindi. Moreover, the Princess who looked at him with her ketus face. Making Erika really bad.
"Yes Nin" answered Erika.
"You've changed a lot. Masha Allah, I reached Pangling Lo" said Nindi who was right to look at the entire appearance of Erika.
Erika smiled bitterly and bowed. If he met Nindi, he would have remembered what he had done back then. The deed that caused him to go to jail and made his life change drastically like this.
But by the way, did Nindi remember again...
"You... remember it again?" asked Erika, quite doubtful.
Nindi nodded and smiled.
"Udah, Thank God. The day you came to see us. That day I remember everything" replied Nindi.
Erika smiled bitterly and nodded slowly.
"I'm sorry yes. Because of me, you went to the hospital" said Erika.
Akbar and Ayu just kept quiet and watched Erika and these two girls. They were scared when they saw the Princess looking at them.
"What's wrong. I've lost everything. I am also the one who is angry. I know you just want to bully Maira, but because I panic, even I slipped and fell" said Nindi.
Erika was stunned looking at Nindi.
Nindi knows if she's just threatening? don't you really want to harm Maira???
"I'm glad you're changing this way. But you are like this, right? don't you want to attend a school?" ask Nindi. She was indeed chatty, but it made Erika smile. Because with her nagging Nindi, she knew, if this girl was willing to forgive her actions first.
"Alhamdulillah, I am still learning to be better" replied Erika. Sometimes he glanced at the Princess who was also hijab.
And it felt like seeing them, Erika became sad. If only time could be reworked, perhaps he would definitely not make the mistake that made him hate by everyone.
It feels really bad, especially when you see the hateful and cynical gaze of his college friends first.
But Nindi and Putri, either because they are good or have forgotten. Their eyesight was ordinary and did not underestimate like the others.
"Who the hell?" putri asked while pointing at Akbar and Ayu.
"They're my sister's" Erika replied
"When did you have a sister?" ask Princess. Her gluttonous face made Ayu and Akbar afraid.
Erika smiled and rubbed Ayu's downcast head in fear.
"It's been a long time" replied Erika merely.
"Your adopted sister?" ask Nindi.
And Erika just nodded.
"Great cool. Where do you live now?" ask Nindi again
Erika was speechless, she was confused as to what to answer. But....
"Your father went to the hospital, right, when we want to go see him, along with Danar's doctor" said Nindi
And Nindi's words made Erika stunned. His father went to the hospital?
When's?
Dan.... why????
The princess looked at Erika in surprise. Why is he so surprised.
Erika looks excited. Akbar looked at Erika in confusion.
"Hey... Why Rik?" ask Nindi anyway.
Erika shook her head and smiled.
"No. Not what. What are you guys here for? The road aja? Tumben isn't the same as Maira?" asked Erika who directly switched their conversation.
Makes the Princess snort cynically. He seems to be evading. I don't know what this girl is hiding.
"Oh yes. We're going to buy a lick. Si Maira cravings to eat cilok here. Oh gosh. Yuk Put, mosquito again later the child" asked Nindi
The princess just nodded slowly.
"See you at the hospital tomorrow. We say goodbye first. Assalamualaikum says. Dah little sister" said Nindi as she waved at Ayu.
"Waalaikumsalam" replied Erika.
He smiled looking at the departure of Nindi and Erika.
It was so wonderful to see their friendship. Erika always wanted to have friends and friends like Maira, Nindi and Putri. But in reality, he only had friends when he was happy, but when it was difficult, everyone disappeared and turned to blaspheme him.
Not like the girl's third friendship. They are happy together, it is difficult for them to defend each other.
That's great..
If only he could be a part of it. Or they can't be their friends. Maybe Erika will be happy.
But.where is possible. It could be forgiven by them alone, he was already lucky.
Huh.
Sorry, God... Erika again complained like this.
Ah yes, Erika immediately gasped. Nindi said that her father was in the hospital.
What pain is his father? Is his heart beating again???
Erika's face turned anxious now.
"sister"
Akbar's voice made Erika gasp. He immediately turned to Akbar who looked at him in surprise.
"That was brother's friend?" ask Akbar.
Erika smiled and nodded slowly.
"They said my brother's father was sick. Why didn't my sister visit. Brother still has a father turned out" said Akbar.
Erika smiled bitterly and rubbed Akbar's head.
"Later in the afternoon brother wants to look. Now we go home yes, we buy your school supplies first" invited Erika who immediately moved and stood up from her stool.
"This one is okay, too, brother. Tomorrow is his shopping" said Akbar.
But Erika nodded.
"What, all through. Yuk" asked Erika again as she grabbed Ayu's hand.
Not to come faster. Only Erika was really hesitant. Should he come see his father or not?
Erika was afraid she'd be kicked out again. It feels really sad to remember that.
He misses, even misses. But if considering the treatment of his parents who could drive him away at that time, it feels like Erika's heart really hurt.
It's been a few months. And their anger should have died down.
Yes, accepted or not, Erika will visit her father later this afternoon.
Hopefully he's not kicked out by them anymore. Because really, Erika had missed them all as well.
Father, mother and sister. Living outside like this also made Erika feel lonely and sad. He was only lucky now, because with the presence of Akbar and Ayu, it could make his heart slightly entertained.
