RAYHAN

Being the second and only son of a man, Rayhan was a little overprotective on his three sisters. Rayhan from childhood was closer to mother than father, making the nature and habits of mother more decreased to Rayhan. His serious attitude and discipline were exactly the same as that of the mother.

Being the only boy in the family, does not necessarily make Rayhan spoiled and behave arbitrarily. He is more calm and nurturing. Anyone thought that Rayhan was the eldest son of the Budiwiyono family. The difference in age of only 1.5 years with the brother makes the difference is not too obvious.

From childhood, Rayhan often became a mediator for his brother. If there was a dispute between Karin and the twins, Rayhan always mediated, as he is today...

"Ashiiic... I came home from the saguri. Where sir, said he.." exclaimed Dina to meet the father who had just returned from the sack 40 days after the death of Mr. Karsono, their neighbor.

The Twins opened and took what they wanted.

"Niiiii. This is said to be mud cake, risoles, lemper same soes" said Dina opened a separate cake from rice dus and friends. Dini is taking a packet of rendang, fried chicken, potato fried sauce and stir-fried young corn mixed ati chicken ampella. Leave only fried rice and vermicelli.

"Yuuk ate Na."pajak Dini without regard to the others. The twins rushed to the kitchen to pick up dishes and rice that was still warm from the rice-warming container.

"Divided for dong, eaten together would be better." said the father to the twins with a smile on his face.

"Mbak Karin ate using pecel catfish that I just made yes. It's a shame that pecel catfish is not eaten. Mubazir later" said the mother while rubbing Karin's shoulder. As usual, I'll let the twins do that and ask Karin to budge. That's what's happened since childhood.

"There is food, divided equally, do not just eat alone. Homework is divided for, food is not shared for "sahut Rayhan while taking two of the four cakes.

Rayhan also took two of the four packs of vegetables and side dishes that the twins had not had time to remove from the plastic.

The twins could only frown without being able to protest over Rayhan's words. Rayhan is the type of person who is always blunt when talking. He will speak according to what he feels and thinks. Wrong is wrong, right is right. That's Rayhan's principle.

From childhood, Rayhan is a frugal child and able to see opportunities. Once when he was a child, Rayhan who was good at playing marbles, collected marbles that he got from the results of his victory. He then sold the marbles back to some of his friends. Even when there are skills lessons at school, he often brings more materials to sell to his friends.

Money from the sale, usually collected to buy goods that he wants, such as sports clothes, sports shoes or basketball. Mom and dad usually add a little lack of money.

Rayhan is not as smart as Karin in lessons, but Rayhan is a determined child of learning. Rayhan is the only one who immediately learned from childhood when learning time arrived. It was his perseverance of learning that made him almost equal to Karin's learning achievement. Karin is more lazy to learn even though she is smart.

Rayhan handed Karin a piece of cake and a packet of fried potato sauce. "It's mbak, yuuk eat." Rayhan told Karin. Karin accepted with a smile. Rushing Karin took the rice and dishes in the kitchen, for her and Rayhan.

They eat the cuisine together. My mom and dad were smiling too. At least there is Rayhan who will always be a mediator for their daughters. Rayhan will be the son who takes care of this family in the future, hope Father and Mother.

"Tomorrow before leaving, iron and wrap this shirt is Rin. This is clothes ordered by Rosmawati's mother, 5th grade teacher at the back of the house" pinta mother to Karin.

Yes, their home is located behind an Elementary School. As a child, Dini and Dina often go home, just to drink or urinate.

"The school bathroom stinks, ma'am. It feels nauseous every time you go there" said Dina when she once admonished why the twins often go back and forth to home.

In addition to that reason, the twins also often go home during rest hours by bringing their friends. That is the reason that makes the father and mother finally decide to move their children's school to Elementary School which is a little further from where they live.

Only Rayhan was the one who never too often back and forth back home. If most single boys are spoiled and selfish, it is not the case with Rayhan. Rayhan is calm, the only child of four children who almost never throw tantrums.

As a child, Rayhan, who was less fond of numeracy, once said to his mother, "Mom, what kind of work is not necessary to learn mathematics?"

At that time the mother only frowned while thinking, what work would think according to the qualifications.

"Work that does not need to learn mathematics... It seems like all jobs need to learn math. Mathematics is a basic lesson that should be mastered by everyone, Ray.." said the mother explained.

Rayhan just nodded his head and said, "There must be a job that does not have to pinter maths ma'am.."

Rayhan looked down at the mathematical PR he had managed to solve with great difficulty. PR from the lessons that become a scourge is scary for almost every student.

"What the hell Ray is. hmm maybe a rickshaw guy Ray. But right, the rickshawman must also count if giving back the fare of the passenger rickshaw.

"Then, Rayhan wants to be a rickshawmom. No need to do math. Ma'am is a math pinter. Let me just be an engineer... Yes, ma'am." said Rayhan memelas.

Mother couldn't say anything. Mother did not want to laugh even though she laughed at the request of her only son. Rayhan's plain gaze and words, make the mother look for the right words to chim in the words of the son.

"Ray, any job is good, but in learning, we must try and do our best. Rayhan is studying. Every effort, there must be a result. Rayhan just needs to study more diligently. Mother and father always pray, may Rayhan, mbak, Dini and Dina be proud children. A good child will understand" said the mother while gently rubbing the son's head.

There is no effort that does not produce results. It is our duty to try our best....
