Rendra, Kayla and Mayang are ready, they'll be home this afternoon. The trip is on and stuck because it is already hours home from work, so they take quite a long time on the trip.
After arriving at the house Rendra took Kayla into his room to rest, while Mayang brought his belongings. Rendra came out of Kayla's room and into her room, she cleaned herself to be fresher before dinner.
Sri prepares dinner at the dinner table, Mayang who finished first waiting for Kayla and also Rendra at the dining table.
“Where's kayla? Have you not finished your bath?” ask Mayang
“It looks like not mah, maybe still wear t-shirt” replied Rendra7
“We wait for Kayla first” said Mayang
Rendra nodded, they were waiting for Kayla, but it had been five minutes more Kayla did not show up as well. Rendra was worried, afraid that Kayla would happen in her room. Rendra approached Kayla in her room.
Tok tok tok tok
“Kayla, let's eat. Grandma has been waiting for” said Rendra
Several times knocking on the door with no answer, Rendra immediately opened Kayla's room.
Chequelek
The door opened and Rendra went straight to Kayla. It turns out Kayla was asleep, maybe she was tired, after going to bed immediately did not have time to eat dinner. Rendra lets Kayla sleep, she does not want to wake Kayla out of pity, Rendra comes out of Kayla's room and closes it again.
“Where is Kayla? How not to come down?” Ask Mayang
“Kayla is sleeping ma'am, maybe she's tired of me leaving it alone. Later let bi Sri between meals afraid he will be hungry so there is no need to go out of the room” said Rendra
“Ya already we eat only” invite Mayang
“Iya bu” replied Rendra
After finishing, Rendra went to the kitchen to ask bi Sri to bring dinner to Kayla's room, fearing that in the middle of the night Kayla would wake up hungry.
“Bi, please bring dinner to Kayla's room, no need to wake up just put it on her desk. Oh yes just go in because Kayla has slept” said Rendra
“Good tuan” replied Sri
Rio who was preparing to go to school, stuffed his books into the bag. Today's new teaching, Rio has 6th grade, he must be diligent to study because in 6th grade there will be a lot of practice questions for the graduation exam later.
Rio rarely sells during breaks, unless someone comes and buys his sales, during breaks Rio just waiting for the bell to arrive, sometimes he goes to the cafeteria and studies. Indeed Rio did not intend to sell at school, but if anyone bought Rio could not refuse. So Rio rarely sells at school, sometimes he goes around school to sell his wares, but it seems they do not really need except the tissue that sometimes they need.
The first day in the sixth grade, Rio was excited even though he was not wearing a new uniform, a new bag and new shoes, all that did not make his spirit decrease. Rio did not want to worry about the new items he would wear. To eat just mediocre let alone buy new clothes of course Rio can not afford.
Rio uniform is still good, so why buy it would just be a waste of money, Rio thought so. After all, he did not go to school for strange things, he just wanted to learn so that his ideals would be achieved and could make his father and mother proud. Even though his mother is gone, he hopes his mother will be able to see that he has succeeded.
Arriving at school, Rio chose the front bench to sit. If usually children are reluctant to sit in front, Rio wants to sit in front so that he can hear the teacher's explanation more clearly and can focus more on learning.
The entrance bell rang, the teachers entered their respective classes to teach, the students immediately entered their classes to start lessons.
“Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Westarakatuh” said the teacher who just entered the Rio classroom
“Waalaikumsalam Warahmatullahi Westarakatuh” answer all students simultaneously
“How are the kids? Healthy all?” tannya
“Sehat bu”
“Good, because this is a new school year and you are already in 6th grade and soon to be graduating, so I hope you keep the spirit of learning because you will face the graduation exam do not play too many Games, remember that the process you live will determine the results so through the process, understand all?”
“Paham bu”
“Then, I will explain the material today, you listen carefully no one chat with his friend, so that when I give you about you can do and not cheat”
All the students heard the explanation of the teacher who was in front.
After an hour or so of delivering the material, the break bell rang. He ended the material and told the students to leave class and rest. Except for Rio, he was still sitting in his chair and not out of the classroom.
Waiting for half an hour of rest, the re-entry bell rang which signaled that the break was over, all students returned to their respective classes. Rio who was reading the book, stopped and listened to the teacher for the next hour of study.
It was time for school to come home, the parents who had picked up were already waiting at the gate. Rio only saw that scene, he could have asked to pick up his father, but Rio realized his father was also busy and must be tired if he had to pick him up. He did not feel jealous to see his friends picked up by car or motorcycle, he sometimes wanted his parents to pick him up but Rio also had to understand the situation.
Rio walked down the crowded street, he continued walking towards the park to sell. Rio already gave the money he got from Mita to his father, his father kept the money as a deposit. Fear later there will be unexpected needs, therefore we must be good at managing money, although few who know later need.
Surya deliberately save money, he does not want to be too wasteful especially Rio will later go to school of course he needs money for Rio's school fees. Even though he hopes Rio can get a scholarship in order to reduce his expenses. Surya ate so much as it could make himself and Rio full it was enough. If later the money he saved was enough he would definitely buy Rio a good meal, rarely Surya eat good food, because Rio also understood about it. If his father had to leave money for later needs.
Like when Ningsih died, although he can get compensation from neighbors hospital fees also have to bear Surya, because the person who hit him has run away and is not responsible. Fortunately Surya still had savings, with money combined from neighbors, enough to pay for hospital fees.
