KIRANA (SUPERNATURAL JOURNEY)

PERSUADING KIRANA

The atmosphere that afternoon was very cold. Drizzle began to go down wet the green grass in the backyard. The sound of lightning still faintly boomed over the sky which was starting to blacken.

Kirana was sitting in front of the window, the window door was left open so she could see into the backyard.

Ms. Ratna and Bi Sari were still struggling with her routine, cooking food for dinner later. Pak Bahari was in the room while calling some friends asking about a good psychiatrist.Bagas from morning had gone to the city because this week there is a campus schedule.While Mang Nur today is busy taking care of the plantation so he not coming to Pak Bahari's family home.

Ms. Ratna has invited Fathir to come and have dinner with her family tonight. He asks Fathir for help to persuade Kirana to be taken to a psychiatrist. Fathir also accepted the request of Ms Ratna.

The drizzle did not prevent Fathir from coming to Kirana's house. He deliberately came from the afternoon because of the weather that allows heavy rain.

The sound of Fathir's motor was clearly heard by Kirana. The girl immediately got up from her seat and went out of the room.Kirana did not know the plan of her mother and Fathir.

Kirana immediately opened the door of the house when Fathir almost arrived in front of the terrace. He was very surprised by the arrival of Fathir who did not tell him first.

Fathir smiled broadly at Kirana. While Kirana was still amazed at the arrival of Fathir late in the afternoon, something she was not used to.

" Hi.how are you? " ask Fathir.

" I'm fine. Tumben you came here not to say. It's almost six o'clock away, where's the test. What was? " said Kirana.

" I deliberately did not chat you first, let surprise . I want to know your condition, because yesterday after you came home from school, I kept thinking. "

" So much attention, but thank you yesterday for saving me. "

" All together. "

" Yuk in, it's cold. "

Then they both went into the house. Kirana invited Fathir to sit in the living room.

" I brought a drink first huh. " said Kirana.

" Udah no need to bother." said Fathir while busy typing a chat to Bi Sari informing him that he had reached the residence Pak Bahari.

Kirana will still bring a drink to Fathir, there can be no guests not in love to drink. But just as he stepped towards aisle , Bi Sari had already appeared from there carrying a tray.

" This is my Aunt made warm tea" said Bi Sari with a smile.

" Thank you, Bi. "said Kirana slowly.

Bi Sari placed two cups of warm tea on the table. Then he went back to the kitchen. Kirana was still standing, she looked astonished because Bi Sari could tell there was Fathir here.

" Hey, what's so bengong? " ask Fathir.

" How did Bi Sari know you came here ? " Kirana asked back.

" Yes I chatted Bi Sari if I wanted to come here in the afternoon" replied Fathir casually.

Kirana immediately sat down next to Fathir, and invited Fathir to drink. Soon after, Ms. Ratna appeared from behind 'he smiled kindly at Fathir.

" Dining is ready, you should take Fathir to dinner with us" said Ms Ratna.

" Thank you auntie, so ngerepotin." said Fathir.

" No nicotine really, you are still a relative of Mang Nur. So you aunty consider part of our family.Especially you have helped Kirana a lot. " Said Mrs Ratna.

" Yes already if we go back yuk, the cuisine of the same mother Bi Sari delicious loh. "take Kirana to Fathir.

" Yes, yes, I want to call you in the room first. We will follow. "

Kirana and Fathir went to the dining room. There Bi sari has prepared a lot of delicious dishes. Kirana a little surprised, not usually her mother cooks this much.Especially Bagas is not at home.

" Wah seduces the taste of Bi's cuisine" Kirana told Bi Sari.

" It's Non's mother's cooking, auntie just help a little." said Bi Sari.

" Let's eat with us, Bi. "take Kirana.

" Thank you for the beauty.Bibi still have a lot of work in the back, excuse me. " said Bi Sari while returning to the kitchen.

Bi Sari does like to call Kirana with the name 'Neng' sometimes 'Non'.

" Let's eat. " said Kirana.

" It's okay. My mother told me to eat first. Maybe I overslept, it would be a long time if I had to wait. "say Kirana.

Then the two of them ate together. The cuisine of Bu Ratna and Bi Sari is not only delicious in sight but also very indulgent tongue.

Then Pak Bahari and Bu Ratna went to the dining room, and had dinner with them.

Since the presence of Fathir, Kirana seems to be getting better. Ms. Ratna and Mr. Bahari were happy to see her. It's not wrong to invite Fathir to dinner here thought Ms. Ratna.

After dinner, they gathered in the living room while watching television . They chat while watching television.

A few minutes later, Mr. Bahari received a call from someone. He immediately went into the room to receive a phone call. Likewise, Ms. Ratna, she was allowed to go back with the reason of wanting to help Bi Sari clean up and make rice timbel for supplies that Bi Sari will bring to her home later.

" It's night, you're not home? " ask Kirana.

" Come home, time is right here. Later I all send Bi Sari home, Mang Nur is not possible to pick up because of the soy sauce abis work in the garden. Kasian is Bi Sari when she comes home alone, " replied Fathir.

Kirana nodded her head, then her eyes returned to the television.Bi Sari did like to go home a little night, after her work was done. Though Bu Ratna does not require Bi Sari to work until night or target working hours.

" Kirana, I want to talk to you" said Fathir.

Kirana turned her head towards him without answering, she was just waiting for Fathir to speak.

While Fathir himself did not know where to start, he was afraid that he would offend the girl before him.

" I heard yesterday from some teachers. He said you were going to a psychiatrist, is that true? " said Fathir very carefully.

" You mean? "

" I-yes I'm just asking, are you going to see a psychiatrist ? "

" It's not people I'm still sane. Who said that ? "

" Some teachers advise you to seek treatment. If in my own opinion, it's also good to try.." Fathir has not finished talking, Kirana cut off his words.

" You're just like everyone else, I think you're the only person who believes in the same I'm not. " Kirana was disappointed.

" That's not what I meant. I promise you that I will help you find a solution to the problem that has befallen you. To a psychiatrist doesn't mean you're not sane. Maybe from there you can be calmer, you can tell everything to a psychiatrist, and the psychiatrist will tell all your complaints to your parents" explained Fathir.

Kirana thought of all Fathir's words. He also suspected that Fathir had come here deliberately told Mother to persuade him to be taken to a psychiatrist.

" What's wrong try first, who knows you become more relaxed after treatment there. Your heart is calmer because nothing is stuck, maybe even your parents will believe you later. "fathir continued to persuade Kirana.

" I thought about it first. "said Kirana softly and slightly sniffled with annoyance.

" Kirana.what you and my parents did was all for your good, Master and friends at school are waiting for you to be healthy and can go back to school.We all love you. Novi also thought the same way, "said Fathir a little lie by carrying the name Novi.

He knew Kirana would definitely believe Novi's words.And sure enough Kirana immediately rounded her eyes when Fathir mentioned Novi's name.

" Did Novi really agree that I should go to a psychiatrist ? " ask Kirana a little worried.

" right. Just try calling him later." Fathir said that he had previously compromised with Novi.

Fathir had prepared everything, and asked Novi to help persuade Kirana.

" All right I want. On one condition ", Kirana said.

Fathir scrunched his forehead.

" You and Novi have to take me to a psychiatrist. And if this doesn't work I don't want to be taken to another psychiatrist again, I'm treated there once enough" Kirana said.

" That's two conditions." said Fathir jokingly to melt the atmosphere that had been too serious.

" Whatever you are, how can you come ? " said Kirana.

" Of course I can if Novi is tomorrow at school I'm talking to him. "

Fathir was quite relieved because his attempt to persuade Kirana was successful.Then Bi Sari appeared, he was ready to go home.

Fathir and Bi Sari say goodbye to going home. Kirana and her mother drove them to the porch. The rain started to fall when they came home.
