Love From Space

Almost Wretched

After Maghrib, Brother Eci, Nura and also returned to make up. This is usually the interaction in the family.

Whenever there is a disagreement or quarrel in the family, Mother will be the mediator and peace agent for her three children.

"The family is like a broomstick. When it splits, it no longer functions as it should. Meanwhile, if it collects in a strong bond, then it will be a thing that provides benefits," said Emak gave a short lecture after the maghrib.

"Therefore, we must maintain unity and unity in this family. 'quu anfusakum wa gigaikum naaroo'. Take care of yourself and your family from the torment of hellfire" Mother quoted one of the holy verses in the Quran as saying.

Brother Evi, Nura and also Tio lowered their heads in solemn listening.

"Each of us has an obligation to look after each other in this family. So that we can be together again in His heaven. Following your father who left first,"

Mom paused her sentence for a moment. And Nura and her two brothers knew that Mother was thinking about their dead Father.

The third one is sad. Especially Tio, who never even knew his Father at all, because he was still in the womb when Father died.

While Nura who was over a year old also did not have any memory of his father. Only Kak Eci and Kak Lili still remember the appearance of the Father first.

"Make not sad. Nura promised, Nura will be fine with Tio and also Kak Eci and Kak Lili. Even if we were to come, Nura promised it wouldn't be long, Ma!" Nura's promise means it.

"Well, Nur. We make a promise, all dong. Time yes need to be talked about also the words 'if the storm,'nya? That's not his promise seriously!" Tegur Kak Eci while slowly elbowing to the side of Nura.

"Nura seriously, brother. Nura promised according to Nura's ability. Rather than Nura making empty promises right? It is the same as sins. PHP in people. Sins. Promise of debt, brother. Isn't that right, Mama?" Nura is looking for support for Mom.

"Yes. Your words are true too, Ra. But Brother Eci's speech also has its truth. You don't have to say the words 'if you make a fuss'. Just say it well. Say it like this, 'Promise will try to maintain the integrity of this family'. I see, Ra.." said Mother advising.

"Every word is a prayer. Who knows there are angels who accidentally pass you say bad words. What if that's what you're trying to do? Don't you want that?" Continue Mother to bear fruit.

Nura nodded stiffly. One new science for her again from Mother and Sister Eci.

Mother's advice continued until almost half an hour later. While the three children of the mother looked down solemnly listening to him.

That's how a family should be. Gather together to discuss every problem. To achieve prosperity and happiness in the family.

The next day, Nura and Tio left together for school. Along the way to the big road and waiting for the angkot to arrive, the two talked about many things.

"Is that lata Kak Eci was right yesterday, Sis?" Tanya Tio tetiba's.

"What about?" Tanya Nura did not understand.

"About a guy you like?" Tanya Tio was back.

"Don't talk about it again, can you?" Tukas Nura suddenly made a move.

"There seriously? Who's Sis? Come on tell Tio. Let Tio investigate the guy first. Not all guys are good, brother. And the average guy today has more of a crocodile than his pigeon!" Ucao Tio rush.

"That includes you?" The accusation back Nura.

"Ehh, that's not true. Tio is a loyal man, brother!" Tio was proud.

"Faithful to Sisil for what he meant?" Toda Nura while smiling ignorantly.

Tio seemed to be misbehaving and did not say anything.

"Haha! Come on, Yo! Your family said it had to be open. You are open to it too Brother!" The Temptation of Nura continues.

"Eh, there's an angkot, brother! Want to go the angkot!" Show Tio to the end of the road.

The man rushed to leave Nura to chase the angkot who was about to walk.

"But! Wait Bang!" Shouted Tio calling the angkot driver.

Nura came running behind Tio. The two are now busy running after the angkot that does not stop.

'The driver's a budeg or something? How not to stop too, being called!' rutuk Nura in heart.

Shortly thereafter the blue-white angkot finally stopped. Tio rushed up into the car, and managed to sit on the front door bench. Now he saw Nura who was still running around within about eight meters of him.

A moment later, there was a tense incident that happened and almost happened to Nura.

When Nura ran towards angkot, a motorbike from behind suddenly took the path to the left of the angkot. Indeed, the angkot stopped it did not reach the side of the road. Maybe think the driver is responsible. He'll be throwing his angkot again soon.

But, because the angkot position is somewhat in the middle that finally makes a motor pass to the left road next to the angkot.

Tragically, the motorist is like he did not see Nura who was running towards angkot. Due to the profile of Nura which was covered by a crowd on the side of the road.

No doubt, a collision happened. A collision should have really happened. And Tio saw clearly and confidently that the bike should have hit his older sister with a strong collision.

However, just like the incident on the train tracks last time, when his colleague, Heru almost got hit by a train, now the absurd incident again befell his sister.

Nura's figure suddenly disappeared from where he should have been standing earlier.

The motorcyclist who almost hit him stopped and turned his head. As if he was surprised because he did not hit the High School boy who was right in the path of his motorbike drove.

After making sure that he did not hit anyone, in a hurry the biker then finally re-engaged his bike. Leave the place immediately.

Meanwhile, Tio who was shocked, immediately came down from the angkot to look for the figure of Nura. After her gaze was floated around, she finally found Nura in the close arms of a man she knew very well.

Nura's position is now the distance shifted about five meters backward from where Nura was.

Nura's face looked pale. He also realized that he had almost been hit by a motorcyclist earlier.

'Am I dead? I am really dead now?!' pekik Nura in heart.

"Sir Nuur!" Call Tio, who immediately rushed closer to Nura and also the man who still hugged her to this day.
