HISTORY REPEATS

After parking the motor matic. I opened the door violently. My hunting breath restrained my emotions, what I was looking for when I came home was Roy.

“Bi, where's Roy?”

“In his room Neng. Speak carefully, do not emotion yes.”

As if not hearing his words, I approached Roy in the room. Apparently he was crying while sitting on the edge of the bed.

He rounded his eyes, shocked as I entered.

I clenched my hands. Instantly sitting limp on the bed, my tears burst unstoppable. Roy hugged me and apologized many times.

“Mafin Roy, Brother. Excuse me. Roy was naughty today, and make brother sad.”

I tried to pull over his embrace, but his hands grew tighter and tighter in my side.

“Since when was a hitter? Did you ever teach me that?"

Roy took off a slow hug. He shook his head while looking down.

“Jawab!” I look at him giddy.

He just shook his head and still sobbed.

“You should answer your question honestly, so that Brother does not get angry with you.”

Aware of my words getting serious, Roy sighed and fixed his seat.

Suddenly, Bi Inah walked into Roy's room. As always, Bi Inah will be the mediator when we are in conflict.

“Anton and his gang, force Rey to work on their PR, but, Rey doesn't want to. Then they dragged Rey towards the quiet upstairs corridor. I, who was suspicious, quietly followed them from behind. I saw Anton and the gang pulling his shirt, and punching Rey. Seeing that, I became emotional and went back to beating them.”

Roy's getting down. He squeezed his fingers.

I closed my eyes.

“Then after that what?” ask me with a humbled tone.

“They are more. So, I lost and they beat me back. Rey ran to find a teacher to ask for help. We were all taken to the counselling room. And I was forced to make peace with them.”

“Peace? You and Rey didn't explain who was wrong and started this problem?” my many.

“Already. Counselors know who is wrong. But I was told to forget it. That's why the teacher was nice to me and drove me and Rey home.”

At first, my emotions were going away. The reason Roy hit Anton and the gang was just defending Rey. But, injustice appeared again, exactly like I was before.

They are victims of power. Anton is the same as Mika, they're siblings. He is the son of the biggest donor of the school.

Oh God, history is repeating itself.

“That's why, Brother doesn't want you and Rey to be schooled there. Because Brother used to be bullied too. But you and your brother are stubborn."

“Sorry Brother. I just want to go to school with a scholarship track as the smartest student, so as not to trouble Brother. But you don't have to worry, we're men. Must be resilient, especially someday, we will take care of Brother La.”

I hugged her crying, Rey peeking behind the door. I waved my hand telling her to join. We also hugged together.

Bi Inah was also moved to see it.

“There are bruises on some parts of your face. Already treated yet?” tanyaku later.

“It's the same Bi Inah," replied Rey.

Bi Inah smiled and rubbed their hair.

“Thank you Bi,”.

“Sama-sama Neng's. Now don't think too much. There will definitely be a way out of Allah.”

“Aamiin.”

“Neng, before returning to Caffe, bring lunch, all for Neng Verra as well" said Bi Inah.

I'm nodding.

“Roy and Rey let rest first, then later tell eat,” added Bi Inah.

While waiting for the cooking to cook, I sat down. Thinking of the twins whose fate is the same as mine.

I blamed both parents.

Still a mystery in my mind, Mama and Papa are so diligent to work, until Mama willingly often leave us for work.

But when they die, all the secrets are revealed, that Mama and Papa left behind a lot of debt.

Honestly, I'm worried, Roy and Rey are just as lucky as I am. And life will continue like this.

“Lho, how come daydreaming?"

Aunty's words broke my daydream.

“Eh, Bi.”

“This is the provision."

“Waah, thank you very much Bi.”

“Sama-sama, Neng.”

I hugged Bi Inah.

My bike went back to Caffe Consina. I promised Mas Alan I'd go back to Caffe if my sister's business was done.

Arriving at the Caffe courtyard, two luxury cars were parked. The only silver-colored Maserati who has no one, and Mika's Red Porsche.

I swallowed the saliva, I honestly felt nervous about meeting Mika again. It still hurts, what he has done. But, just bismillah, I tidied up my hijab and mask. It felt neat, I went to Caffe Consina.

Next.
