I Am Among Them

Don't Forget to Go Home

"You're a very sweet boy Gryfan. But you think it would be nice to call her Anin, okay?" mama lina's

"Hmmm.. Sounds good, too" Gryfan agreed to the baby's new nickname.

"Anin, what a cute name" said Gryfan quietly, smiling

"Hahaha alright son" said Mama Lina helplessly looking at her sweet son.

Suddenly his mind came to hide all the truth from Anin

"When he grows up, please hide all the truth, son. Don't ever tell me that she's not your real sister" said Mama Lina with a worried face and pleaded with Gryfan

"Well, ma" Gryfan also obeyed his mother's request, because Gryfan himself was a very obedient child.

Mama Lina and Gryfan went home. They decided to move house. So that Anin never asks about her past. Mama Lina also bought a house that is not so luxurious, with the proceeds of the sale of the house and some assets relics of Papa Rashid, his father Gryfan. To connect her life, Mama Lina opened a small boutique, and she sewed it herself. They went through everything together. Day after day, month after month, year after year.

It doesn't feel like 17 years have been missed.

It was time for Mama Lina and Anin to let go of Gryfan to continue S2 to Germany. Gryfan was studying medicine at the time. He received a scholarship from his campus, because Gryfan was one of the students who achieved on his campus. Not only smart and accomplished, Gryfan grew into a handsome man who became the idol of many girls. Without giving up the opportunity, Gryfan agreed. Although with a heavy heart Gryfan had to leave his mother and beloved sister.

In the crowd of airports. Mama Lina cried to let go of the son, while hugging his mother, Gryfan said "Have come.. We've talked about this before. Mama agreed to let me continue my education to Germany." said Gryfan took off his mother's embrace and wiped her tears.

"Yes ma has it.. He's only gone for a minute anyway. He would also not forget to go home, and forget about his smelly bolster pillow.. Hihihi." said Anin break the mood of sadness, make mama Lina smile a little and wipe her tears.

"After all, if he's not home, our lives will be quiet. We no longer need to hear the sound of a sullen person bathing in the bathroom.. Pfftt" continued Anin still continues to tease his brother

"Shut up.. I like it so much with my voice, so you faithfully listen to it carefully, hahaha." said Gryfan did not want to lose to his sister.

"Can't you stop mocking each other at times like this, huh? Normal older sister, in general, will be sad when going apart." said Mama Lina while hiring the two children, immediately making both children in pain

"That's ma. We're not normal.. Hahahaha.." said Anin directly embrace her brother. Then Anin turned her body. And now they are facing each other.

"Go brother.. Reach your mind, achieve your success as high as possible. Just don't forget to go home. Never forget, we are waiting for you at home. Make my mom and I proud to be your family. My prayers are always with you, brother." with eyes that looked at Gryfan full of hope, Anin hugged her brother and shed tears. Gryfan returned a hug from his sister.

It was actually very heavy she had to let her brother go. Because only Gryfan was the only man who always protected her, always comforting her, always trying not to make her cry. Even Gryfan was the only man Anin loved so deeply. Love as a brother of course.

She still remembers when she was told that her papa had died while she was still in the womb. He was devastated, and devastated. He hadn't even seen his face yet. Anin looked at her papa's face just from a photograph. (Of course it's papa Rashid's photo).

And when he was sad, only Gryfan comforted him. Make him laugh again.

Anin still remembered the words of her brother that could calm her heart

"lost, betrayed, let down, forgotten, abandoned. This is something that happens and happens often in this life. It is the path of destiny, and we cannot avoid it. It's just, what kind of attitude should we take to face all that. Don't give up, be strong and strong. And try to rise from adversity. If you want to cry, then cry, but do not dissolve too deep. Don't let the people closest to you feel the sadness you feel. Be a lamp of happiness for others. Smile at my brother."

Such a beautiful and soothing word. Thanks to her brother's words. Anin grows up to be a cheerful and strong girl facing all the trials.

Only her brother she trusted. Even Anin was closer to Gryfan than Mama Lina, probably because Mama Lina was too busy with her boutiques.

"Haven't have to be so whiny. Be strong. Take good care of your mom when I'm not around. Be a good girl, okay? I've only been gone a few years. Wait for me to come home..

Daann when I get home don't forget to change my room bed sheet. And don't wear my bolster and pillow when I'm not around, remember that.. Hahaha" Bisik Gryfan took off his brother's embrace and wiped away the tears that were dripping so hard.

"Yes.. Jaa.. Go there, do not go home if necessary, hihihi.." said Anin tried to smile, then embrace his mother.

After a long farewell, Gryfan left because the plane he was about to board, was about to depart.

The time showed at 12:30 Mama Lina also decided to take Anin to lunch outside, and talk about preparing for the university entrance exam.
