I forgot

that wound ever existed

-Wita

Bandung, Wita-Aphis

Wita decided to bring the little girl he was carrying into his room. This kid seems to be thrashing. Wailing, taking turns venting his anger. Followed by Fitri's hasty steps, he went into his room and took Adis down from his carrier. Adis kicked everything in his face, throwing books, photo frames, flower facets, sofa cushions. Oh.oh.., as soon as he secures his work laptop, he puts it in the closet. In case of fear Adis ran towards his work laptop.

Then, Adhis hugged back, gently stroked the child's back. Let Adhis weep and wriggle, Wita's hand on Adhis's back continues to follow his gentle rhythm. Slowly, Adhis cries loosened.

“why?” whispers of Wita on Fitri

“tadi offered to eat after his schedule to eat, uh he did not want to. Same mother Zahra persuaded, especially Adis is still recovering from the flu. Adis even cry, angry with Mother Zahra, and lastly her condition as you see” explained Fitri slowly.

“oke” reply Wita.

Adhis still sounded a hiccup in Wita's sling. Tidying Adhis hair that looks messy, tied the curl hair with a hair tie that had been stuck in the irregular Adhis hair. Then the little veil of Adhis he put back on the pretty face of the girl.

“often this way?” ask again.

“this has been the third time bun, but today is the worst. Mommy saw earlier, mother Zahra until her condition was so”, while looking down Fitri replied embarrassed.

Wita took a deep breath. Fyuuuh.he was already lost for the second time.

“sorry bun, I think events like this will not be repeated again because it has been 3 days ago Adis started not raging again” Fitri confirmed.

“iyah is okay, just relax, hopefully this is the last” Wita gives a smile to Fitri.

“Mother Fitrri can go to class, Adhis let me be the same I used to” pity the teacher who was in class thought he. Other children are also a priority. “Nothing, later Adhis I deliver to class if the condition is calm”.

“mau play aiiir” whining Adis interrupted his crying that has begun to swallow.

“tadi said he wanted to ngajak Adhis play aiiir” he said again while crying.

“oke.. We play water, but Adhis drink first huh! Later let play strong water” smart child, still remember the words earlier apparently yes. Although he was raging, it turned out that his invitation to play water had become a valuable offer for him. Hhmzz…

Adhis harbors a sign of agreement. Not bad! He stood up and tried to release the sling of the Adhis. But Adis thrashed a clear sign of rejection. Okay, let's see when the girl sticks.

Wita decided to bring Adhis to the beloved mini pond mang Tatang the school garden stylist in his trunk. The pond in the park, precisely behind the teacher's room, became a favorite place for children to observe fish and various other animals. Chicken, rabbit, cat, hamster and bird. Ah, the park behind the teacher's room is a mini zoo at the school of pride.

Adhis threw himself into the fish pond, pulled the teacher named Wita was in a hurry. “mothers there ifaaan” shouted enthusiastically. Without the cue Adis entered the mini fish pond that has a depth equivalent to the knee of Adhis.

With carefree Adhis chasing the fish that meleokan their slippery body. Wita slightly stared in relief, seeing Adhis so spilled unconditional happiness. Free, free, free and happy. I don't know where the cry that echoed in the classroom and the study. It seemed, the energy that had to be released by the little girl who had been stared at earlier was indeed very much.

Let it be!!, he was glad to see it, for that is the meaning of happiness, laughing without imprisonment, releasing burdens without a dividing line, spilling tightness in the chest without a tinge of doubt. Unknowingly, the smile she let go of just like that for a little girl who had just subsided from her inflamed cry.

“bunda.. bundaa. I want tangkaap!!!”

Oh can be sure the fish that a few minutes ago were enjoying the fresh water with the circulation of water made by Mang Tatang is made by unsavory olleng. Fortunately, the fish are ornamental goldfish purchased by Tangang mang from the fish market last month, if the inhabitants of the pond were Koi fish sent from Japan, the fate of Wita now.

Mang Tatang, Wita fish will change.

5 Minutes had passed, Wita could not let the child linger in the pool. He knew his teacher told him that Adhis had just recovered from illness.

“where?” shouted Adhis who was sure to be drenched in the middle of the pool.

“mother has a fish that wants to tell me”

“ikana? telling stories?” asked Adis curiously while approaching Wita. The hand of Adis.

“we change clothes first yes!”

Immediately he reached into the phone in the pocket of his purple skirt, “teh Santi please ask for a change of clothes for girls size M yes, keep it on my desk! Thanks”

He took Adhis to a special bathroom in his room, dyed the child with water. Do not forget the liquid soap of the child that will eliminate the fishy smell of Mang Tatang's favorite fish.

Buried the child with eucalyptus and baby powder. Wuissh. segerr's. The money slammed into his nose.

“This beautiful if shower at home like who?”

“dimandiin sama mamah, trus if you wear clothes like aa”

She brushed her black hair slowly. The wet hair looks refreshing Adis cute face.

“where is bun? Fish who want to tell?”

“eh.. ko bunda forgot yes?, but Adhis eat first huh! Fear the fish did not want to tell the same Adhis. Ikan do not like to see children who do not eat”

Adis nodded slowly. Soon Wita contacted Fitri to bring Adhis food. While waiting for the idea of a fish that wants to tell a story. Duh. which fish. He has no idea yet.

He saw a glass bottle with a comet fish swimming in it. The small fish that Wita received yesterday from Fakhri, the little girl of Happy class who had visited yesterday.

“Haiy.. Adhis I'm a comet, a very pretty little fish. Have you taken a shower?” Wita started to tell stories in the funniest voice.

“iya” Adis replied concentrating on the bottle of comet fish that has been moved into the hands of Wita.

“You know I don't like helping people? I, the most beneficial animal on earth”

“wah, well, you like helping people huh? Kayak dolphin doonk”

“eit, I can help people so that people can one day and recover” quickly

“how do you get?” Adhis immediately turned to look at Wita with a question.

“so easy if it” replied Wita with the sound of comet fish continue his chat with Adhis.

“you just say the same mama, hey mamah make me vegetable soup for Adhis to eat. To adis quickly heal”

“Aphis has healed mother” replied Adhis evasive.

“waah alhamdulillah donk, tomorrow Adis want to be invited to pick guava fruit?”

“mau. want,,”

“Adhis in the household a lot yes, can eat the same meat, tempeh, tofu, or spinach, or the same gourami fish soup can also, can, so that tomorrow meet with Mother Wita Adhis body more fresh and healthy. Then we can pick guava fruit, how?”
