“Hopefully given smoothness yes pak”

Rio again continued to sell, there was a person who hit Rio so as to make Rio merchandise fall. Someone fell on the ground and someone fell into the god, Rio was shocked and saw the person who hit him but unfortunately that person instead continued walking without giving any compensation to Rio. Now the sale is a little.

“Yes Allah, the tissue and the nuts stay a little” said Rio held back his tears “The man instead left and did not apologize” Rio took his tissues and nuts that are still clean and can be sold again

Rio so not eager to sell, Rio decided to go home because it was also almost afternoon. On the way Rio just lowered his head, he did not know how to. Of course Rio had to replace all the wipes and fallen beans. Rio counted the tissues and fallen nuts, the tissue that fell 4 pieces and the nuts about 5. Rio had to pay around 30 thousands, Rio had no money. The money in his piggy bank was up to buy his father's shoes, there was only money from the sale yesterday 15 thousand, his intention would be Rio love his father.

“Assalamualaikum” says Rio went inside the house

“Waalaikumsalam, have you gone home son?” said Rio “Why sad his face” asked Ningsih

“Tisu and Rio nuts were falling bu, Rio sales stayed a little. The money from yesterday's sale can only be 15 thousand, less 15 thousand for bu” said Rio

“Don't be sad later ask the father the money must be father love” said Ningsih calms Rio

“But..” Rio had not had time to continue his talk Ningsih had already cut in

“You took a shower first let the mother who spoke to me later”

“Iya bu” Rio obeyed Ningsih's words and passed to his room

Shortly after, Surya came and put his tricycles in front of the house.

“Walaikumsalam dad” replied Ningsih

“Rio has gone home bu?” ask Surya

“It's been well, but Rio was sad because his wares fell and Rio definitely had to replace them. Dad will love Rio 15 thousand yes so he is not sad anymore” said Ningsih

“Iya later father love, thank God today can be quite a lot because the father was between passengers a bit far so given a lot”

“Iya ma'am, daddy bathe”

“This makes Rio” Surya give money 15 thousand to Rio

“Money? What do yah?” ask Rio

“Say you have to replace the tissue and beans that fell earlier. So this is to pay instead” Surya replied

“Thank you, you don't feel sad anymore yes maybe not your sustenance so you don't need to be sad to linger still the spirit of ya” said Ningsih advising Rio

One week later

Rio and Kayla had already taken the grade-level ascension exam and were all declared to be taking the class, Kayla was very happy. Tomorrow Rendra will bring, Kayla and Mayang will go to Bandung according to his promise to Mayang, to meet with Bela and all the holidays and celebrate Kayla's rise to the sixth grade.

Sri who is preparing the clothes of Kayla and Rendra, Rendra has chosen some clothes to put them in the suitcase. They will go to Bandung for a week, Sri did not come because they feel unwell fear even troublesome there. Mayang had invited Sri but Mayang understood that Sri had to rest here. In Bandung they can eat out if Mayang does not cook.

Rendra did not drive alone because he brought Mayang, if his mother wanted to go out so that the driver could be delivered, there was no way Rendra could always take his mother, because Rendra also had to go to the office. Rendra is worried that if Mayang drives himself, Mayang's age is not too old.

A child's concern for his mother is also great, if a mother is worried about her child for not coming home late last night she cannot sleep. A child can also worry about his parents, of course all that exists because of the love and affection that grows in his heart. That feeling must be nurtured from childhood, nurtured with genuine care and love.

Like Rendra who always get all that, even though he had lost his father, Mayang never willing if Rendra did not feel complete affection. So even now Kayla, even though she was not cared for and raised by her mother, she never lacked the attention of her grandmother and father, let alone Sri who was always there for Kayla. Sri is only a maid, the Mayang family never treated Sri badly, especially Sri who always took care of Kayla since she was a baby.

Kayla and Mayang can walk if Rendra is in the office, if Rendra can take a taxi or ask to pick up Erik because Erik's house is one way with Rendra's apartment.
