Final Letter

Uniting Father and Mother STS2

Arumi's patience finally makes Rafa want to enter the school, the day before Arumi had registered rafa to enter the school, it so happens that Tu at this school is Arumi's neighbor.

Rafa tailed behind Arumi avoiding the eyes of the people, after arriving in front of his class, Rafa immediately occupied the bench in the number 3. I don't know why the boy was still silent and didn't dare to open his voice.

"Rafa mom stay, will you come home from school mom pick up again?" Arumi is honestly hesitant to leave Rafa, but today there are many orders to be done.

"I'm afraid Mom" said Rafa, who has not found comfort in class

"But I have to go to work soon. I promise I'll come back to pick you up "

"Well, you can go" And Rafa let her go, because she knew she had to make money.

"Smart kids, smart schools, we'll take a weekend out to the amusement park, you want?" entertain Arumi so that Rafa is not moody.

Rafa just nodded his head, while Arumi immediately left the school.

Hours of learning will soon start Rafa is still in his down position and avoid eye gazes with the people in the class. Suddenly someone was sitting on the same bench as Rafa.

"Hi, introduce my name Arka" said the arka introduced herself by giving her hand to shake hands

Rafa was still focused on lowering his head, until he finally saw the figure of Arfa who did not give up on getting acquainted with him.

"My hands are achy please accept my introduction" Arka complained because she had not received a response from Rafa

Rafa receives Arka's hand.

"What's your name?" ask Arka

"A__ku Rafa" said Rafa nervously

"Oh so your name is Rafa, why do we always keep our heads down, you're like a scared person?"

"Ti__it's okay, I'm just not used to it yet"

"Do you have any friends?" ask Arka curiously

Rafa shook his head.

"Are we friends from now on?" arka asks Rafa to be her friend

"Do you want to be friends with me?" ask Rafa hesitating

While Arka was so strange with the question that Rafa gave.

"What do you mean?" ask Arka wonder

"People don't want to be friends with me just because I don't have a father" said Rafa again lowered his head for fear of hearing Arka's answer.

"Geez, are they that bad? if you are afraid of not having friends, from now on I will be your friend if necessary I will share my father with you" said plain arka but very touching.

Rafa looked at Arka as if asking for an explanation.

"From today onwards we are friends."Arka assured.

"Are you serious?" rafa asked still can't believe, that on her first day of school will get good friends.

"Of course"

The first day of school was passed with great joy, clearly drawn on the face that was still plain and funny. Rafa chose to leave first, because his mother told Rafa to wait at the security guard post, said the mother to make it easier when picking up.

While Arka, choosing to wait in the school waiting room with mbak Ayu, soon her father will pick her up. Today Arka and Rafa's parents seem a little late to pick up, the school atmosphere is already quiet there are only a few janitors and teachers who have not left the school.

Long wait finally Son came to pick Arka.

"Honey, I'm a little late to pick you up, so there's a meeting that can't be delayed" Putra explained a little for fear that Arka will sulk and get angry.

"Yes it's okay, let's go home" said Arka briefly because he felt tired because he waited too long.

As they are about to leave the school grounds Arka still sees the whereabouts of Rafa who has not been picked up by his mother.

"Well, wait it looks like it's my new friend" Rafa's intrusion calls on his father to stop his vehicle.

"Who's son?" asked the Son while turning his gaze to what Arka saw.

Arka opens the window of her car, and greets Rafa who starts to get bored waiting for her mother.

"Rafa, are you still here?" ask Arka to surprise Rafa who is almost sleepy.

"Ehh Arka, my mother hasn't picked me up yet, it seems like she's busy with her job" Rafa knows that the mother often gives her understanding if she's late coming back from work, which she's very busy with, it must be none other than the busyness of the mother.

"Hmmh, how about you come with me, we play first in my house, then I will take you home" Arka asked Rafa "Let's yah?" ask Arka for permission

"Yes already, take your friend into the car, but before that let me talk to the security guard. Dad's afraid his mom's looking for your friend

"Yes, dad."

The son also spoke at length with the security guard and left his business card, the son thought that his parents must be panicking because they did not find the whereabouts of his son.

"I put my business card and this is my personal number, later if the child's parents are looking for it just give this business card, even my address is written clearly."

"Okay sir, I believe. I believe the child is safe with the father" said the school security guard

"I've already said yes sir"

"Please sir,"

Rafa is in the car. Arka was not alone when he was not with Rafa, at this time he laughed more and joked.

"Whose name are you, son?" son asked as Rafa and Arka were joking.

"Hhmhh, my name is Rafa om" he said shyly

"Oh Rafa, meet Arka's father"

"Yes,om. I'm troubling you?"

"No ko, just om curious already this afternoon you have not been picked up. Your father must be busy, right? just like om" said Putra did not know that Rafa does not have a father.

Rafa lowered his head, the 5-year-old was saddened by the question that again made him insecure. But a moment later Arka immediately put her index finger on the lips and then drove the father, not to talk more. The son was astonished by the child's behavior, and finally the son realized that his words had offended Rafa.

"I'm sorry my dad, he doesn't know you don't have a dad. Don't be sad I'm just like you lost one of my parents, I lost my mother, and you lost my father. How about we unite my father and your mother so we both have a father and a mother?"

The plain words of the arc made Rafa who was looking down straighten out his view, as if agreeing with Arka's opinion. While Putra was surprised by the words of the child, how could the question be Boomerang for himself.
