DEW PURITY

DEW PURITY
Liability



"So, Kanaya is racing again!" he said, shortly after hearing Haykal's words.


"Mama!" rafan said, afraid that Dewun is angry with Kanaya.


"Darling, calm yourself!" abra said soothe.


"Kanaya!" shouts Dew loudly, the sound of Dew echoing throughout the house.


Tap Tap Tap


"Why did mom call me?" kanaya said softly, Dewun asked Kanaya to sit down.


"He's at my house, lest he'd told me about the race last night!" inner Kanaya was upset, when she saw Haykal sitting right in front of her.


"Kanaya, you're racing again!" said the cold Dew with a slight tinge of emotion. Kanaya turned towards Haykal.


"Basic complainant!" kanaya's inner being was upset and angry.


"Kanaya, put your head up. Look at Mama, don't just shut up like a coward. A rider must be brave. Now, face your mother bravely!" debun said firmly, Kanaya raised her face.


The gaze of Dew like an eagle ready to pounce on its prey. Kanaya was not wrinkled, her bones felt weak. Kanaya realizes her mistake, a mistake that will make Kanaya's world go round. Abra has been silent without a word since Rafan and Kanaya were children. Abra never interfered when Dew educated them. Abra will not defend Rafan and Kanaya or ban Dewun from being tough and firm on them. Abra will only watch, reminding that Dew punishes beyond the faults of Rafan and Kanaya.


"I'm sorry Kanaya!" kanaya said softly, bowing her head. Dew stared fixedly at Kanaya, while Abra chose to distract her. It is undeniable, Abra participated in the Kanaya race. Without Abra realizing it, he was the reason Kanaya could race. The sports car presents Abra, being the facility Kanaya uses for racing.


"Tell me, what's your fault?" said Dewirih, Kanaya squeezed the tip of her hijab.


Haykal lowered his head, he felt guilty for positioning Kanaya on the wrong side. Supposedly as a teacher, Haykal was wiser. It's not just complaining to Kanaya's parents. But advised Kanaya firmly. Not to be in the race anymore. Haykal makes a deepening distance between himself and Kanaya. Not the sympathy he got from Kanaya. Except for the cold attitude that is becoming. Given Haykal the reason Kanaya was scolded by Dewun.


"Kanaya races on active days!" kanaya said firmly, Dewun nodded in agreement. Rafan and Hanna are shocked by the reason of Dew's anger. Reason far from everyone's shadow. Dew did not look worried or suspicious, considering Kanaya participated in the car race.


"You promised me you'd only race on weekends. Why are days active? Especially if you race at night. Mama is disappointed Kanaya, you broke a promise you said yourself!" said Dewirih, Kanaya increasingly silent. Kanaya feels guilty for breaking her promise to Dewun. It wasn't Kanaya's intention to hide everything. Only, Kanaya has promised to participate in the race and should not fail just because of the Dewun ban.


"Sorry Mama, Kanaya has disappointed mama. As a child, Kanaya chose to break a promise that disappointed her mother. But in the world of racing, Kanaya is a true racer who can't back down from a challenge!"


"You mean?" sahut Dewan softly, everyone was silent staring at the debate between Dewun and Kanaya. The debate is more towards discussion, not anger at Kanaya's mistakes.


"Kanaya must be willing to take to the streets, when there are challengers who ask to compete. Kanaya did all of that not for self-respect alone. But brave and not afraid of challenges. Mama once said, Kanaya must be a brave woman. But stay with accountability and still within reasonable limits!"


"Including breaking a promise to mama!" sahut Dew, Kanaya nodded slowly.


"I'm sorry Kanaya!" kanaya said softly, Dewun nodded. Dew turned his head towards Abra, then turned his head towards Rafan. Two men are able to protect Kanaya. But both Abra and Rafan, do not want to interfere with Kanaya's problems. Both believe that Dewun is able to give the right punishment for Kanaya's mistake.


"What punishment would you like?" said Dewun, Kanaya looked up at the Dewun.


"Kanaya will pick it up in the room!" kanaya said, Dew nodded slowly. Abra scrunched his forehead, there was a curiousity that swallowed his heart.


"Haykal, thank you for saying everything to auntie. Maybe you're wondering, why does aunty look so calm?" said Dewun, Haykal nodded along with Rafan and Hanna who nodded along. Abra looked calm, as if he already knew the reason for the Dew's calmness.


"Tante already knows Kanaya's habit of racing cars. Not once or twice, Kanaya took part in that dangerous match. But Kanaya is still the stubborn Kanaya. The more aunty bends him, the more he'll get in a fight. Finally aunt and om allowed Kanaya to participate in the car race. By the way, Kanaya's grades in school are not dropping. Kanaya will only race on weekends or holidays!" said Dewirih, Rafan stared in disbelief. He felt foolish to know now, a brother who did not know his sister.


"Isn't it dangerous, there's a risk Kanaya has to take!" said Haykal, Dew nodded slowly. Dew asserts Haykal's words. Rafan couldn't believe seeing the nod of Dew's head. A justification for Kanaya's wrong attitude.


"Auntie allows with unusual liability. Kanaya must fulfill her entire promise. In return for the permission that aunt gave. As a Kanaya teacher, of course you can see Kanaya's achievements in school. One of the conditions that I asked Kanaya. But if Kanaya breaks her promise. There will be big consequences!"


"What is aunt? Sorry if Haykal's curious. Whatever happened to Kanaya today? All because of my words that finally put Kanaya on the wrong side!"


"Wait a minute, you'll find out. Kanaya dared to break her promise, of course she was ready with her punishment. A racer would bet with his life. Then, there was no reason Kanaya was afraid to accept her punishment!" said Dewun softly and firmly, Haykal was silent. Haykal doesn't believe everything Dew says.


Haykal saw a family that loved each other, but firmly would be a mistake. Kanaya's cold and stern attitude, as if evidence of her being a true descendant of the Abimata and Adijaya families. His courage to admit a mistake, making Haykal in disbelief. If there is a child who bravely faces punishment. No crying or whining, no self-justification and feeling innocent. Haykal only saw the courage of a broken promise. Once again, Haykal was amazed by Kanaya's persona. A trait that Kanaya never wanted to show others.


"Why did I never know that? If my little Kanaya is a racer!" rafan said softly, Abra nodded in agreement. Rafan shook his head weakly, he really could not believe it. If spoiled Kanaya has grown into a racer.


I heard the breath of the Dew. A bitter fact that must be heard by Rafan. Lonely Kanaya who always longs for the warm embrace of Rafan. When was the last time Rafan hugged Kanaya? The warm embrace that Kanaya always misses to date. Rafan is getting deeper. Guilt was getting in his heart. When he tried to remember his last hug on Kanaya. A hug that had happened a long time ago and was now forgotten.


"I'm sorry Rafan!"


"There is nothing wrong or to blame. You two are both grown up. There is a different path ahead of you. Time is gone, it cannot come back. Kanaya's lonely feeling, will not be easily forgotten. And your cold attitude, won't change easily. But behind the word is not easy, there is a blood bond between you. Before the thick blood between you melts and becomes an invisible distance. Hugged your brother Rafan, understand his loneliness. Kanaya needs her older brother, especially at the age of adolescence. A relationship that won't be easy to get through, except with a strong faith!" said Dewun, Rafan can only be silent.


Tap Tap Tap


The sound of Kanaya's footsteps coming down the stairs. Both of Kanaya's hands were seen carrying something. Rafan turned his head towards Kanaya, he felt that something was wrong. But Rafan does not know, what punishment will Kanaya receive? Just like Haykal who was silent. He feels lucky to know the Kanaya family. Haykal heard a lot of affection. Although Haykal's happiness will be reciprocated Kanaya's cold attitude is increasingly becoming. Abra instantly resuscitated her body on the sofa. He never interfered, but the punishment Kanaya would receive was not easy.


"Mama!" kanaya said softly, Dew blinked both of her eyes. Both of Kanaya's hands carried something that would probably make her life a little heavy.


"Sit down!" dew Suhut.


"Mama, this is the ATM card that Papa gave me. While this is what Arya's grandfather gave, then this is what my mother gave. It's Kanaya's piggy bank and this envelope contains Kanaya's savings for a month. The pocket money you give Kanaya every day. It's a sports car key that Papa bought and a sports motorcycle key given by Arya's grandfather. Kanaya has brought everything, except the necklace you gave her. Kanaya wants to keep it!" kanaya said softly, while giving one by one luxury goods owned by Kanaya. Kanaya's hand is seen infiltrating behind her hijab. Kanaya tightly grasped the necklace of the Dew. The one and only luxury that Kanaya wants to have.


"Kanaya, what are you doing?" rafan said in disbelief, Dewun took one by one luxury goods owned by Kanaya. Abra sighed, clearly she felt sorry for Kanaya. But all that has happened, Kanaya must take responsibility for her mistake.


"Kanaya, mama won't take the necklace. On condition that you get up early. You have to prepare breakfast for everyone!" pinta Dew, Kanaya immediately nodded. A clear drop of Kanaya's tears fell. Both of his hands clasped tightly onto the pendant hidden behind his hijab.


"Thank you mama, Kanaya will prepare breakfast for everyone!" sahut Kanaya along with her falling tears.


"Mama, why is your punishment this heavy? Kanaya won't be able to!" rafan said defending Kanaya.


"Sister Rafan, Kanaya doesn't mind losing all that. As long as you don't take this necklace!"


"How are you going to school?"


"I can walk or ride with friends!" sahut Kanaya relaxed, while wiping her tears. Kanaya is crying not because she has no luxury. But the cry is more because of fear of losing the necklace giving Dew.


"Can't, mom has to give it all back!" rafan said loudly, Kanaya shook her head weakly while holding Rafan's hand.


"Sister Rafan, it's just a worthless treasure to me. I can live without all of that. As long as I can still meet you. I don't want to be away from you and this family. You're everything in my life, I don't need it all!" kanaya said, Rafan looked at Kanaya nanar.


"I'm sorry, brother, I'm sorry you've been ignoring you all this time!"


"Kanaya, grab this envelope. At least that's enough for the next month!"


"No need ma, Kanaya is wrong and must take responsibility!"


"Didn't you have to endure the lives of some people. Use that money for your obligations!" he said, then returned the envelope with money belonging to Kanaya.


"Rafan, you've been ignoring Kanaya all this time. Prove you can be a good sister. Meet Kanaya's needs with your income, of course with your wife's Hanna's permission!" said Dewun, Rafan nodded in agreement. The standing dew left everyone. Abra saw the back of the Dew away.


"Rafraid, believe it or not the most injured person right now? She is a mother, a mother who must be firm in order to educate and unite her two children!" abra said, then followed the steps of Dewun. Kanaya stands up leaving Rafan and Haykal.


"Kanaya!"


"What's up, brother?"


"Where do you want to go?" rafan said, Kanaya turned with a flat face. Kanaya turned to Haykal.


"I have to go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. It's so late, you guys haven't had breakfast yet. Let alone that snitch teacher, it looked like he was extremely skinny. She must have eaten less, because no one cooked for her!" kanaya said cynically, Rafan chuckled at Kanaya's annoyance at Haykal.


"Why don't you cook for me?" inner Haykal, while looking at Kanaya's back away.


"Prepare Haykal, Kanaya will act!" tease Rafan, Haykal sighed.
