Lara's Frame

Go to Mall

Don't forget the vote

The bell for school was ringing. My first day of school made a good impression. Although there was a little trouble in the canteen. But it's still a small problem and easy to overcome. At least no one bullied me like most kids who move schools.

The teachers also like me a lot. They taught me with patience so that I could understand. If I don't understand, they don't want to continue the material. There are even teachers who are willing to teach me first-class Junior High. There are also teachers who repeat the initial material of class IX. I entered school when I was in the second semester, which will soon face the UN.

My friends are very good to me too. They can all be invited to joke, laugh, play and more. If you can say, class IX-1 is a compact class compared to other classes. They also taught me. Especially Nacha. He was a very smart student in class. I was lucky to be able to sit with him.

Tet...

Already seen a black Mercedes Benz - owned by mama - just entered the parking area.

"Cha, Bel, what are you going home?" I asked Nacha and Bella who were still waiting in the school corridor.

"Ga know, Kay. Papa I suddenly can't pick up because of a sudden meeting," replied Bella as she held her shoulders up high.

"Kay, I'm with you, yeah. Can you?" timpal Nacha is hoping. "Mama called, said that there was a new patient in the accident. Mama trus nitip me same mama you, Kay," explained Nacha.

"Ooh, yes, Cha. It was my mama coming" I said, pointing to the parking lot. "Bella, just be with me. Won't you?" bargained.

Look Bella who is still struggling with my offer. Maybe he was still afraid that the driver would suddenly come to pick him up. "Okey," he said.

We also walked towards the parking lot. And as we got closer to the parking lot, a middle-aged woman got out of the car. Yeah, that's my mama. I thought, Mama didn't come to pick me up and just dropped me off at the driver. But, in fact, not.

"Honey..," said my mother hugging me. My mom embarrassed me in front of my friends. "We're going for a walk today, yeah." Mama let go of my embrace, and without feeling guilty had put her daughter to shame.

"But, Ma-"

"So Mama had the same permission as Doctor Fanny. He said, we can take Nacha, " said the mother who cut my conversation.

"Oh that." I glanced at Bella. Suddenly I remembered the Bella I was riding. His face was a little sad. "Ma, how's Bella?" I asked her to make her not understand at all.

"I mean, honey?"

"So Kayla nawari Bella to go home with us. But we're going for a walk" I explained.

"Yes, take it." Mama took a gulp at Bella who was to the right of Nacha and behind me. "You're Bella, huh?"

"Yes, Auntie," Bella replied, nodding her head.

"You're coming with us, yeah. Take a walk," take your mom.

It turns out that mom really. I thought it was just a joke.

Mama persuaded Bella to take a walk with us. Because at first, Bella refused. He was afraid of both his parents. Then she asked for Papa Bella's phone number, and she called him for permission. Papa bella confirms mom's request. How happy we are at the moment.

--o0o---

Mama's car has been parked in one of the magnificent buildings that is the largest mall in Medan, Ferrour Mall. It turns out this place was previously kept a secret mama. Yes, we asked, "where are we going, Ma?" But she replied, "it's a secret. Later you will know," he said, looking back and winking his left eye at us.

"Well, get out" asked Mama as she banged her front door. And get out of the car.

"Waaah, that's so big." I chuckled in awe, turning my head to look at this mall building. This is my first time - during amnesia - I came here.

Is this really our mall that Nacha explained at school?

They all snorted holding back their laughter when they heard me say like a village man.

"It's still not much, Kay. Ntar on the inside, you're amazed to see it," whispered Bella softly to me. "Waaah.., Auntie, this is the first time I've been here with the owner. Thank you, Auntie, for bringing me here." Bella was so happy.

Mama just grinned the horse and took us into the mall.

After a quick walk around the mall, we stopped by one of the papa-owned restaurants that are still inside the Ferrour Mall.

The restaurant waiter has come to greet us with menus in the Ferrour Restaurant. This restaurant is where mom and dad are dating. "Good afternoon, Miss Ferrour. Can I help you?" The waiter gave one of the menu papers to the mother and the other menu was placed on the table.

"What do you want to order, honey?" Mama observes the menu, maybe there is a new menu they created. "I ordered as usual, Mom." The menu that my mother had been holding earlier, was given back to the waiter. The waiter immediately understood what menu mama usually ordered.

"Ma, Kayla order food like a mama."

"Well, what's the matter, honey?" mama asked while holding her chin with her right hand. "Don't you know the menu?"

Yeah, honestly, I don't understand the names of the menus here. The menu here is all foreign. The name is like the names of French food, because it is a French restaurant. In the past, we ate French food called Foie Gras. Honestly, the food is bad in my mouth. Wasn't it! Not bad. But because my tongue still seems to be unfamiliar with French food. Since then, there has never been French food at home

I was confused as to why I felt so unusual about French food. Mom and dad don't know my taste buds? I have lived fourteen years with them! Or, does my tongue also have amnesia?

"Maybe the cuisine you choose matches Kayla's taste."

Mama smiled thinly, "Sorry mama, yes. Mama almost forgot that your tongue is still not used to French food."

Bella looked at Nacha, as if she was thinking about something that confused her - why isn't Kayla used to French food?- then stares back at the menu. She looks confused by the names of the menu here - this is her first time eating at a French restaurant - whereas Nacha is already used to the French menu.

"Tante, Nacha order beef bourguignon with mineral water, okay?"

"By dong." Mama smiled faintly, and Nacha immediately ordered her choice of menu to the waiter who was still standing. "Bella eat what?"

"Just like Nacha, Aunt." Bella grinned and nudged Nacha's arm, "That's what food?" he said a little whisper.

Nacha knew that Bella had never been to a French restaurant would have been clueless with the menus that were still unfamiliar to her. Nacha immediately told what beef bourguignon food was like. "That's meat, just like rendang," explained Nacha who immediately understood Bella.

"Okey, I'm staying first, yes, Miss." The waiter said goodbye - like going far away - to my mom.

The quiet atmosphere between us. All that was heard were the voices of the people who were in the Ferrour Restaurant. No one opened the conversation first. We are all busy with our own activities. Nacha and Bella are busy with her gadgets and I am busy with my daydreams. Mom, go when you get a call from Papa.

"Waaa...." The silent atmosphere between us suddenly left due to the thunderous screams from Bella. His crisp voice had made people look at us with that gaze; this-children-why-ribute-banget.

"Why the hell, Bel?" tanyaku and Nacha who suddenly feel compact. We looked at Bella cynically, because she had managed to make us ashamed of her screams earlier.

Bella grinned wide without feeling guilty, "Ga nothing."

The waiter came by delivering the food and drinks we ordered and placed them on the table. The departure of the waiter was at once with the arrival of the mother. Yes, mama has finished chatting with papa over the phone.

"Ma, papa hasn't come home yet?"

"Papa is still at Sukarno-Hatta Airport, Darling. We'll pick up papa at the airport, yeah."

I answered my mother's words with a nod. "Kayla is as heavy as papa."

"Om Kevin again in Jakarta, Auntie?" Nacha who heard our conversation asked my mother.

"Yes, Honey. There was a meeting this morning," replied the mother kindly. "Yuk, eat the food."

"This is what's his name, Ma?" I stared at the food right in front of me with a gaze; between-eaten-or-not.

"Kay, you don't know the names of French food, even though your parents have this restaurant." Bella's words were immediately greeted with her feet that Nacha stepped on until the sound sounded me. "Look...." Bella grimaces in pain.

Mama snorted softly and then chuckled, "Kayla amnesia, dear."

"Whats?!" Bella's body that had been slightly bent, now back upright because she heard the words of her mother. Yeah, she still doesn't know I have amnesia. "Sorry, Auntie, Kayla, I don't know." His body was back to how it was and his face really showed regret.

"Whispering very much to you, Belacan," whispered Nacha who could still be heard by anyone.
