I'm Fragile, Lord

The arrival of Subono

Talita was moving chili seeds from a polybag to the garden next to her house.

After taking care of her mother until she finished taking the medicine, Talita immediately gardening again.

"Assalamu'alaikum" sounded the voice of the middle-aged father.

Talita immediately stopped her work, and headed to her house. Pak Subono looks like Talita's 10th homeroom teacher is in front of his house.

There is a bad taste because Talita does not give news of pain, permission even through her friend Talita.

How to give news while his friends Talita home far away from him.

"Waalaikum'salam, Mr. Guru. please enter Sir" said Talita let Pak Guru sit even though the seat is not worth to be called a seat. because only a long bench without any backrest.

"Sit down, sir. Talita make me drink first"

"No need to bother, son, I just want to come here to see your mother. You heard in your neighbor if your mother is sick"

Talita lowered her face, her tears started to pool in her eyes.

"True Sir, I'm sorry Talita did not ask permission or send a letter to the school. Not Talita does not want to school Pak_" immediately Talita tears shed too.

His great desire for school should be buried deeply.

"My mom _my mother needs me more Mr. Teacher_ hiks"

It feels heavy Talita told me she wants to stop going to school, if only her mother's husband would be responsible for taking care of her mother, she would still be able to go to school.

"Talita decided_ _ decided to stop attending school Mr. Guru. hiks" it was sad to make this decision. But inevitably Talita must do for the sake of kindness and affection to his mother .

Pak Subono only gave strength by patting Talita on the shoulder.

"Patience, son. I understand, that's why you came to your house"

It turns out that the conversation of Mr. Guru and Talita was heard by Anna's mother, when her mother Talita's tears also dripped.

"a _ a _ u _ i _ u _ in _ ta _ a _ af a _ na _ i _ u _ a _ _ u_ pu _ us _ se _ o _ lah"(my son, mother is sorry. Because mom, you drop out of school) heartbroken her mother with the decision of her son so noble.

Talita heard her mother voice immediately stepped into her mother's room and did not forget she immediately wiped her tears so that her mother would not be sad.

"Mother,_ mother_ "Talita holds her mother.

Talita knows her mother must be sad about their current situation but she wants to strengthen her mother.

Talita took off her Deck and said

"Don't cry, bu_Ita doesn't matter" talita said, shaking her head

"You go to school or not, taking care of the mother is the responsibility of Ita as her son Mother. Ita beg mom_ don't blame yourself Mom. It's our destiny, we can't regret it"

Talita wants her mother not to cry and blame her again because their current condition is not the fault of anyone including her mother.

The present condition is the destiny path of Allah SWT who tests his faith and if the trialed man can pass through it then Allah SWT will raise their degrees.

Before long Mr. Subono stepped into the room occupied by his mother Talita.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Mom. Introduce me Mr. Teacher Talita homeroom, my name is Pak Subono_" said Mr. Subono while cupping his hands in front of his chest and then lowering his hands again.

"I came here just to see the state of Mother and Talita, and there just happened to be a little sustenance. Contributions between Students and Teachers to Talita. We have heard of Talita's mother who is sick. For that we are all teachers who at Talita school took the initiative to make a small contribution. Hopefully it can be useful later. Regarding Talita who quit school, we leave it to Talita alone because no matter how we live Talita itself" continued Subono again.

"Don't refuse, son. We're all willing to help you"

"Thank you, sir, and tell everyone who has contributed my greatest gratitude. I cannot repay them, may Allah repay them"

"Aamiin, all right, son. You go first, I hope you can be stoic and patient to take care of your mother _ Mother Anna I'm sorry first. Assalamu'alaikum" said Mr. Subono

"Waalaikum'salam" Talita replied.

Subono left Talita's house.

After the departure of her homeroom teacher Talita, Talita immediately opened the envelope given by Mr. Subono in front of his mother.

"Thank God, Mom. Talita gets a donation of 1jt. This money will be used for our daily needs"

Talita clutched the envelope and a bright smile on Talita's face. At least there can be used to survive, buy medicine for his mother even though her mother's husband never came home.

Talita's mother also smiled but in her heart was very sad, when children of Talita's age studied but Talita could only work in the garden and take care of her.

If the incident did not happen that afternoon, Talita can still go to school or just play with her friends.

In his mother's heart he was the one who deliberately destroyed Talita's life so that Talita became like this.

Talita who saw her mother moody, she knew that her mother must still be sad too. Remembering Talita who is not in school.

"Mom, this is a woman. want to graduate school or not?! I will still be working in the kitchen. Maybe_ it's not yet time for Ita school. If you recover, Ita promises to continue school again. So Ita hope you will not be sad anymore.doesn't Science know the age limit?? yes, ma'am" said Ita reassured his mother.

His mother only nodded weakly asserting Talita's words.

"Mom, Ita continue working first huh. This is the envelope I'm keeping it"

Talita put the envelope under the carpet of her mother's bed.

"i _a _ son"(Yes, son) replied his mother in a clean slit.

Talita immediately kissed his mother's forehead and stepped into the field to continue to move the chili seeds beside his house to the fields he would cultivate.

Carefully and painstakingly Talita moved the chili seedlings not to let the seedlings be damaged.

Some time later azan dzuhur t'lah reverberate. Talita stopped his activities. For Talita, the call of God is more important than anything.

Talita cleans her body even though she will finish praying she will continue her work again.

After the completion of the prayer immediately Talita fed her mother, later after feeding her mother and drinking medicine she will continue her work again.

Talita feeds her mother as usual slowly, Talita so painstakingly feeds her mother.Talita occasionally tells her that her mother is more eager to recover.

Talita told me that if her mother recovered, she would continue her aspirations of becoming a teacher. That desire has long been aspired, for him a teacher is a noble task that seems willing to share knowledge for his students.

His mother also heard him occasionally nodding signs in agreement with Talita's wishes. Her mother's desire was very big. From now on, she would not trouble Talita by refusing to take her medicine.

After her mother finished eating, Talita immediately gave her medicine. Talita sees that her mother's medicine is already living today, which means that tomorrow she will go buy her medicine again.

Talita is grateful today to get a donation from her school, so she can buy her mother's medicine again.

After giving her mother a drink, Talita continued her gardening work again.
