Dreams for Real

Rio has arrived at the school, before going to the school, Rio stopped by the stall to pick up his goods. Because some days Rio is not selling, Rio also has not picked up the items that will be sold later.

"Eh anyone want to buy a tissue like a peanut?" Kevin said in a mocking tone

"What school wants to sell, if you want to sell there go" he continued

Rio ignored Kevin's words, there was no point in serving him, endless every day always looking for trouble with Rio. Being unresponsive by Rio, Kevin was annoyed and pushed Rio's body fortunately Rio could hold it back.

"Don't you hear me say what?" Shouts Kevin

"Are you talking to me?" Ask Rio

Hearing Rio Kevin's reply getting annoyed, but when he was about to pick up the merchandise Rio teacher came to make Kevin undo his intentions.

"Good morning to the kids" said the teacher

Kevin, Rio and his friends rushed to sit on their respective benches.

"Good morning sir" they answered

"Are you ready to learn?"

"Ready sir"

"Good then, because in a week we're going to take the class exam. From today we will learn and you will give practice questions so that later when the exam you can understand and can answer all the questions. Understood?"

"Eye sir"

"Please get the book out"

All the students took out a book and began to write what his teacher had written on the board.

All the materials and questions have been delivered, and it's been hours to go home from school. The teachers closed the lesson today and had all the students read the do'a, finished reading the do'a out of the class.

Rio intended to sell in the park, because before he was sick, Kayla once said she wanted to help him again. But he was sick so he couldn't sell. Will Kayla be angry and will not come because some days never sell in the park, or Kayla just waiting.

Arriving at the park Rio went around selling tissues and nuts, occasionally looking for Kayla, but Kayla was not in the park making Rio focus back on selling tissue and nuts.

"Buy the deck nuts" said the mothers who took their children

"You bought how many mums" Rio asked

"How much deck?"

"Two thousand mums"

"I bought 3 yes"

Rio took the beans in his basket and gave the nuts to the mother.

"It's mom"

The mother gave her the money and left Rio.

"Alhamdulillah" said Rio

Rio went back around selling. He remembered his mother's message that 3 o'clock had come home.

"From the afternoon, I went home. It can be 15 thousand" said Rio

Finally Rio decided to go home, he did not want to make his mother worry if he came home too late. Rio had also promised to go home soon even though the results were not much.

Arriving at the house Rio immediately look for the whereabouts of his mother to tell that he has returned home.

"Assalamualaikum ma'am" call Rio

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Ningsih who came out of her room because she heard Rio who had gone home "Capek?" Ask Ningsih

"Mom cooked earlier, all for dinner. You take a shower first and change clothes" said Ningsih

"Yes ma'am"

Rio went straight into his room and I was in his bag. Then he took a towel and went to the bathroom.

"It's over, let's eat" said Ningsih

"Yes ma'am"

Rio who was indeed hungry, he immediately devoured the food he had already taken, Ningsih accompanied Rio who was eating. Ningsih looked at Rio with haru feelings and was also happy. His heart was so sick to see his son had to struggle to help the cost of living, his income was not much but a little help Surya to buy food or other necessities.

 

At Kayla's apartment, watching TV accompanied by Rendra.

"Well, we're going home tomorrow?" Ask Kayla

"Dear, we go home tomorrow" replied Rendra

Kayla looks sad to hear Rendra answer, Kayla lowered her face to hide so as not to be seen by Rendra.

"Kayla why?” Rendra realized that Kayla had lowered her face, she approached Kayla and raised her face.

"Later Kayla there is no friend at home, Kayla is happy at home because there is a grandmother but here there is mama Bela who accompanies Kayla to play, Kayla is not lonely anymore" Kayla

Rendra was confused about how, but he and Kayla also could not stay here long because the company in Jakarta also needed it, his mother would also ask when to go home.

"When we play here again, Kayla will be back on the test so we have to study as well. Later if you have a papah school holiday will bring Kayla to meet with Mamah Bela ya"

"Dad promise yes, will bring Kayla here again" stuck out her little finger

"Yes father promised" Rendra hooked her little finger on Kayla's finger.

"Thank you for the reward" Kayla hugged Rendra “Tomorrow to go home at what time?” keep Kayla

“Maybe a little afternoon, if early in the morning afraid of traffic jam later even tired on the road” said Rendra

“Tomorrow we stop by the house of mamah Bela ya pah, Kayla want pamit”

“But it's your new job tomorrow, it's definitely not at home”

“Yah even though I want to say goodbye to Aunt Bela, yes already to the office only if so pah” Kayla shows her face melas

“Eemm yes already tomorrow to the office first” Rendra resigned and comply with Kayla request “We have dinner first yuk” take Rendra

“But Kayla is lazy out”

“Papah order only yes, later we eat it here aja”

“Iya pah”

Rendra took the phone in his pocket and ordered food. After waiting for a few minutes the food ordered by Rendra came. Rendra brought her ordered food to the kitchen and invited Kayla to eat with her.

Finished eating Rendra accompanied Kayla to watch tv in her room. At home Kayla sleeps alone but here Rendra accompanies Kayla to sleep, rarely Rendra can accompany Kayla to sleep and read a fairy tale before going to bed. He wants to enjoy this short vacation, if in Jakarta Rendra will be busy so this is the right moment for him to remember the childhood of Kayla who always slept together.

In a cafe there is someone who is waiting, he is looking for the whereabouts of the person who is waiting.

“Already from earlier pak” sapa Bela

“Not really, do not call sir not in the office just call your name if outside the office” said Erik

Yes, Erik waited for Bela to eat dinner at the Cafe, Erik invited Bela to just look for the wind. He also wanted to ask what kind of relationship Bela had with Rendra, because after the incident Kayla took Bela with Rendra made Erik restless. Therefore Erik invites Bela to talk with a more relaxed atmosphere.
