Juan And Mentari

J&M - Part 14

In the morning Mentari and Iwan were ready to leave. After breakfast, the two said goodbye.

The star continued to sulk asking the Brother not to leave this house. And this made Mentari forced to delay his departure for a while. He wanted to persuade his sister first. Mentari did not want to leave his only sister in a state of sadness.

In terms of appearance, the Star is more inclined towards the tomboy. However, in other respects he is still a teenager who still likes to whine and cry when asking for something or when he does not want to be abandoned like now.

"Dear star, dear sister is very much with you. If possible, you will be with you and your mother forever. But, no matter how big brother is a wife who has to follow wherever husband goes. So, please, don't stop Brother from going with Kak Iwan huh. I promise you every day you'll call you and Mom. Brother also promises when there is free time Brother will come here to visit you and Mom," said Mentari. She hugged her sister while crying.

"So promise you'll do it all? I promise I won't forget me and my mom?"

Mentari. "Sister of promise, Bi. Sister promise. So, you don't cry anymore!" pinta Mentari's. He rubbed his sister's hair gently.

"Let's just calm the Stars, mother, I will certainly often invite Mentari to visit here," Iwan who stood not far from the Mentari also spoke.

"We believe in you, son. Mother drop off Dance yes, take care of her well, be happy with her. If he is wrong, gently rebuke him, never raise your hand to him yes" Ratih told his daughter-in-law, Iwan.

"Yes, Mom. I will definitely take very good care of her," Iwan replied with a smile.

Tin!

I heard a car horn coming from outside.

"It looks like the taxi we ordered has come" said Iwan. "Come, Tar, he's afraid that our bad luck will get stuck again. Papa's house is a little far away."

"Yes, Mommy" replied Mentari.

The star helped bring her brother's luggage to the front porch. He hugged his brother again.

Somehow Bintang felt his brother's departure this time felt different, not the same as their previous separation. But this is not the first time Mentari will leave home. Every college season comes back and Mentari must return to the country where he studied, they will certainly separate like this. But this time it all felt very different.

"Don't cry anymore, Bi. Remember that! Don't like to make trouble, learn the real thing! Didn't you say you wanted to be a doctor? Brother pray you can achieve your dream," said Mentari again.

"Yes, Brother. Stars will learn the real thing in order to get student duties. The stars will definitely become doctors. Just look! I'll inject Brother when Brother gets sick. Promise me not to get sick. You should always be healthy and strong." The star said that while crying. He had tried to hold back the tears from coming out, but in reality they fell freely on both cheeks.

Stars nodded. Mentari returned to say goodbye before he got into the taxi.

After the taxi her brother was riding in was no longer visible, Bintang let out a long sigh.

"Why?"

"It's okay, Mom. This house suddenly quiet. Though there has not been five minutes Kak Tari left, but I have missed him very much" replied the Star. "Somehow the departure of Big Brother this time made my heart feel uneasy."

"That's because you don't want to split up with your brother. Pray well for your sister's household. Hm?"

The star understood.

"Aren't you in school?" ask Ratih.

"School is, Mom. This is no longer the Goddess and Ana want to come to pick up," replied the Star.

Just as the Star finished speaking, the Goddess and Ana had already come to pick up. The star was soon bidding to go to school.

"Mas, where are you going? He said he'd go to your mama's house first, how come here?" asked Ratih when he realized the road by the taxi was not the way to the address of his father-in-law.

"We're not going there right now, I want to take you to my friend's house. When we got married he could not come because of business, and because he happened to be here again, so we stopped by here for a while," replied Iwan reasoned.

I don't know, Mentari felt something strange with her husband.

"Let's get out, we'll meet my friend first!" take Iwan when they arrive in front of a house.

Initially, Mentari was hesitant. But after retiring Iwan convinced him that they only stopped by for a while. The mentari agreed to go down.
