For Kahiyang

14. Memories of Childhood

The stubborn Kahiyang and the spoiled Hanna, quickly acclimated themselves. Satria continued to look at her daughter's closeness with Kahiyang.

So pretty. Satria monologued while the back of her index finger rubbed her lower lip.

"This is all sister's painting?" hanna asked when she saw some pictures of Kahiyang's painting on her phone.

Kahiyang nodded. "Yes, these are all my paintings. Ah, there's another one," - scrolling the screen, looking for something - "this is a mother's painting and this is a painting of a small time brother your age," Kahiyang showed two similar paintings. Kahiyang in elementary school imitated the painting of his late mother, Kiran.

"Well, same brother. It's exactly the same. Very good," - looking towards Satria- "Papa, look! the painting is great. Hanna also wanted to be able to paint like Kahiyang's sister," Hanna showed Kahiyang's phone screen from the top of her bed.

Satria nodded with a smile, Kahiyang stared fixedly at the married man.

Real handsome. Inner Kahiyang, then he changed his gaze in another direction.

Satria still continued to look at the misbehaved Kahiyang, smiling slightly.

"Yeay .. fun. Hanna wants to learn to paint. Brother Kahiyang want to teach me how to paint?" ask her to Kahiyang.

"Can. Later brother bring painting equipment for Hanna," he replied.

"no need. I will prepare the equipment. You can tell me, whatever I have to buy" Satria said.

"Alright .." reply Kahiyang.

For two hours Kahiyang accompanied Hanna and now Hanna was asleep. Satria is busy with her laptop.

Kahiyang silently watched Satria who focused on staring at the laptop screen with glasses perched on her nose. And again their gazes meet. Kahiyang spontaneously got up from the right side of the bed.

"I want to go back to the room" Kahiyang misbehaved.

Satria closed the laptop, got up. "I'm taking it" he said.

"No need. I can be alone. Excuse me," refused Kahiyang.

It doesn't feel good to be seen by other hospital employees, if they walk alone. Satria men who are much more mature and married can cause unpleasant rumors later.

"Wait a minute!" exclamation Satria. He grabbed his phone on the table.

Kahiyang turned her body. "What else is it?" tanyakanya.

"Your phone number?" satria's question hangs when she sees Kahiyang's facial expression. "For painting equipment" he continued.

Kahiyang reached out her hand, asking Satria's phone to enter her mobile number. Kahiyang left her phone in the room.

The sound of typing is heard. Satria continued to look at Kahiyang who was pursuing her mobile phone.

"Beautiful" chirped Satria unconsciously.

Kahiyang. "What's? what did you say?" kahiyang asked, he must have heard wrong.

"It's nothing." looks like, scratching the back of the head.

Kahiyang hands Satria's phone.

"This is not-" Satria's speech was cut off after seeing the contents of the typing.

"Yes, not my number. But I give details of what equipment should be prepared. Sorry, I can't give a phone number to someone who's not too close. Excuse me," Kahiyang passed, leaving Satria who stood staring at Kahiyang's back and long unraveled hair.

Kahiyang crosses paths with Earth right in the hallway of Hanna's room. The earth is looking for him.

"Said Mama, you met the old man! what's for?" tanya Bumi, holding Kahiyang's arm.

"Mama? since when did she become your mother? Don't be reckless and don't be so familiar! And it's none of your business I met anyone. Realize your position is only a doctor working in our family hospital!" Kahiyang jerked Earth's hand and then passed into the elevator. The earth is chasing, coming into it.

The earth cornered Kahiyang. "I told you you were my future wife!" he said aloud and then kissed Kahiyang forcibly.

"Suckers! I'm not your future wife!" Kahiyang pushed the Earth up against the elevator wall.

The earth came back to him and tried to kiss Kahiyang's lips again.

Kahiyang slapped the Earth. "You've crossed the Earth's boundary!" he then ran out of the elevator. Earth chased.

"Kahiyang wait!" The earth holds Kahiyang.

"Deliver! you don't see, there are a lot of people here? I'm disappointed in you!" Kahiyang jerked the hands of Earth again. The earth could not do much because rightly, many pairs of eyes were staring at the two of them.

"I'm sorry. I'm emotionless. I'm sorry, Kahi," Earth is walking on Kahiyang's right side.

"Don't call me Kahi! only my family can call me by that name! Conscious Earth! I've told you many times, keep your limits! We're just friends no more!" kahiyang said with a lowered voice, only he and Earth heard it.

"But I'm"

"Stop, Earth! I'm gonna take a break. You're back to work!" Kahiyang went into his room.

Brisia and Rozi were sitting together, observing the tablet screen.

"For a long time, son. Is everything all right?" ask Rozi. Kahiyang nodded.

"Why pout like that, Mama's son?" Brisia extended her hand. Kahiyang approached and sat next to Brisia while hugging Mama.

"Bad mood, Ma" she replied.

"Why? your apology not accepted?" ask Brisia. Rozi looked at his daughter.

Kahiyang shook his head. "Everything went well. But there was something else that made Kahi's mood bad," sinking her face into Brisia's chest.

Rozi embraced Brisia while rubbing the top of Kahiyang's head. "What thing? tell me about Mama Papa,"

"Emm .. about the Earth," - raising his head, looking at his parents - "The forehead is uncomfortable with the Earth. Can Kahi refuse to be friends?" ask him carefully. Kahiyang did not want to disappoint Papa Mama.

"Is the Earth doing things you don't like?" ask Rozi.

Kahiyang wanted to tell her about the events in the elevator, but she did not want to destroy Earth's career in her Papa hospital. It's certain that if Rozi finds out, the Earth will be ejected. Kahiyang does not want to destroy the future of others.

Kahiyang shook his head. "Not, not about that. Just uncomfortable, Papa," he replied.

"When you're comfortable or not, it's all because you don't want to open up. Try to be more open and welcome with a male friend. When will Papa's eldest daughter shut herself down?" ask Rozi.

Kahiyang looked at Mama for help but Brisia just smiled and rubbed her back. Brisia always respects whatever the decision of her husband. What Rozi did, all the best for his three daughters.

"For now, Kahi has not wanted to be close to men. I still have plenty of time, Papa. Kahi is 20 years old. Kahi has also not achieved the ideals of Kahi. Kahi wants to focus on college" said Kahiyang.

"Alright, Papa won't force it. But Papa asked, do not keep too much distance from the Earth. He's one of the best doctors that our hospital has. Papa hopes that someday you can be friends more closely," said Rozi. The sense of optimism approaching the Earth with his daughter does not fade. Rozi believes Kahiyang will be more open later.

Kahiyang. Better to say his father.

"What is your mom looking at?" Kahiyang grabbed the tablet on the table.

"That's a picture of our vacation to Paris. You are a little funny too. Our first holiday" said Brisia.

The little Kahiyang who had just entered the large Permadi and Wiryawan families. Their little family is on vacation for the first time as a family. Bitna who was a toddler was in the stroller and Kahiyang was held by Rozi wearing a Mickey Mouse hat. They were photographed in front of the Eiffel Tower.

"Kahi remember. That time Kahi almost disappeared because he saw a balloon belonging to another child," Kahiyang recalled that time.

"Lucky there is a kind boy who helps the beautiful daughter of Mama," continued Brisia while pinching Kahiyang's cheek.

"Ah yes, the boy is Indonesian. Papa remembers," Rozi added.

"But Kahi forgot what his face looked like. Now that brother must be very mature. He's really nice. Kahiyang was very lucky to meet him," he said.

"Mama's father was also very grateful to the boy. I don't know what happened, if your daughter didn't meet her. Mama must have been very sad," Brisia hugged Kahiyang, smirking her forehead many times.

The story of his childhood vacation made Kahiyang for the first time to have a Diary book. And promised, when adults will be able to meet the man who helped him.
