Injuries in the Family

Chapter 33

After breakfast was over, Nadine washed the dishes and passed to the previous room to check Hanasya who was still asleep because of the holiday time like this is often used to sleep longer. Nadine just smiled at the face of her sister who was still asleep, and after that Nadine just really entered the room. Sure, don't forget to lock it in a meeting.

Nadine who opened her laptop also continued several English tests, and several other language tests for her needs while studying abroad later and looking for a full scholarship place that covers everything. Nadine is determined after graduation, she will not trouble her parents again. His father, Gionino. The man wanted so badly to go from his sight as far as possible, that he was never seen in front of him again. Cruel indeed, but Nadine must be able to face this world.

After a long time struggling with the laptop, the phone rang displaying the name of Jihan there.

"Hello aunt." - Nadine.

"Hello ka Nad, this is Farid not the mama who called." - Farid.

Suddenly Nadine's smile expands hearing Farid's answer.

"Dear, what are you calling aunty?" - Nadine.

"Gpp, Farid with aunt. Aunty doesn't miss Farid?" - Farid.

"Kangen dong, what a miss!" - Nadine.

"To the house bang Ibal yes, ka. We play here." - Farid.

Instantly Nadine was frozen, it turns out that aunt Jihan and om Hadi were already in Jakarta. If it's like this, isn't Iqbal talking about those who quarrel?

"Hello, aunt Nadine." - said Farid across the street.

"Oh yes, later aunt if you have time there, baby." - Nadine.

After the phone call ended, Nadine struggled with her own thoughts. He closed his laptop, then looked at the wall clock in his room. Usually, when the holidays, Nadine's normal working hours begin at 10 am. Indeed he deliberately did that to be able to save as well, until his savings are more than enough to live in the country of people.

After getting everything tidy, Nadine came out of her room and rushed to go to work.

"You want to work?" asked David who was sitting in the living room while holding the remote in his hand.

Nadine who took a step down from the stairs finally said, "Hm." she replied.

"Oh, be careful."

Nadine just nodded, their awkwardness was indeed really felt. But David got along too quickly, and that made Nadine uncomfortable. Especially the man who he thinks is still a stranger. An online motorcycle wait in front of his house to go to the cafe.

Nadine stared at the crowded street, as she stared at the red light of one family in the car, joking. Spontaneous seeing that Nadine smiled in tears, fortunately Nadine had felt it since she was a child. "It's so beautiful, hopefully the child will always feel the happiness of his parents." Nadine's mind rubbed the corner of his tears.

Indeed Nadine grew up without the affection of her parents, but she would be determined to love her sister more than anything and promised Hanasya would not lack anything, so her sister would not have the same fate on her. Nadine immediately stared at some incisions in her arms as a sign that she could survive so far, which is why Nadine wore long arms continuously both at school and at home.

Gionino rubbed his face violently, looking at the windshield of the bank where he worked so many scribbles. He intended to go to the office during the day, but when he got a report of his office glass crossed out to make Gionino rise in blood and plus the boy said he was immediately taken away by his parents who only capitalized on apologies.

"I told you that Saturday should not open the rolling door!" reprimand Gionino on one of the guards working that day.

"Sorry sir, I intend to tell Dandi to clean this glass and I do not know that the customer who has a promise to withdraw the money brought his son here."

Gionino sighed violently, Dandi came in a hurry carrying a small bucket of water and a cloth like a canoebo to clean the glass. While the little boy they were referring to was watching them from the back of a parked car not far from the Gionino bank.

"Mama said, whatever the problem Karin can not be afraid and must face Karin." muttered the boy.

Karin stepped her feet towards the three men who were busy doing the activity, some were wiping, some were monitoring her, and some were helping her. "Just if next week it has to close its rolling door!" press Gionino.

Karin pulled the end of her waist-drapped collar Gionino, Gionino stared at the one that pulled her hand and instantly fell silent. Her round eyes, curly hair reminiscent of Nadine as a child, were very similar.

"Om.." said Karin.

"Where are your parents?" asked Gionino whose voice was softening.

"Inward, mama Karin again took the money." replied Karin, "Sorry, om, who did the graffiti Karin. Karin has tried to remove it, but you can't." he continued.

Gionino was once again silent, why did this child seem familiar to him? and it felt like something was stirring in his heart, to reprimand him alone could not. Gionino crouched down to flatten his height, then rubbed the child's hair.

"Hm, it's okay. Om, not angry. But don't confess to this again." he said.

Karin smiled and nodded with excitement. Not long after, the glass door opened showing a woman wearing a mask on her face. At once the moon's heart beats seeing her son with Gionino.

"Care!" call him.

The two humans turned around, staring at the Moon. Karin ran small, and immediately grasped Karinda's hand tightly. The moon gave a gesture of resignation, he did not want to be too intense and was afraid of being discovered by Gionino about his identity.

"Wait the fuck.."

The moon that heard that was just cursing itself, the Moon finally turned around. Gionino looked into the eyes of the woman before him, and handed something to the Moon.

"Fall down." said Gionino.

The moon stared at the hand that handed her the wallet, "Thank you very much." The moon replied briefly.

Karin smiled, "Dadah om, see you again!" karin.

The moon looked at her daughter who saw the interaction just now, somehow her chest was like pain and immediately brought her child into a car parked in the bank parking lot. Seeing Gionino who lived his ordinary life made Rembulan hold tightness in his chest, after getting into the car immediately remove his mask and open a little glass of his car to scavenge the air that was so stifling.

"Mama.."

The moon tried to calm down, "Mama's okay, I hope you don't talk to strangers anymore" she said.

Karin just looked down, she played her little nails. "Sarin accidentally crossed out the glass, but uncle was good. He's sorry Karin, and says mama also Karin should be able to face problems? The problem was Karin who made then Karin also apologized." he said.

After hearing that the Moon tried to sit down towards her daughter, "Hm, sorry mama. Mama's too scared to lose Karin again" she said slowly.

"Why lose again? Mama is Karin's again."

The moon hugged her daughter, she was only afraid that one day her nightmare would happen. After everything had improved, Moon drove his car away from the bank area to go home.

While Gionino was still silent in his room, he was still thinking about the child he thought was no stranger. Gionino was still thinking about the boy's eyes which were the same as Light, his wife.

Elsewhere, a woman is enjoying her time that she temporarily took away from the role of mother for one day. The woman stared at the sky from the balcony of her apartment room with a bathrobe still attached to her body.

"You don't want to take a shower?" ask someone in the room.

"No, my body still hurts."

"If so, I'll flirt in the bathroom." said the man.

The woman just chuckled, "You take a bath, I won't be fooled anymore!."

After hearing the door close, the woman still looked up at the sky. Today she did the thing she used to do before marriage, and remembering it only sighed for a moment. It's hard, but the name of the heart being played with must have its revenge as well, right? Let her heart both feel her name hurt.
