Flowrence very seriously read the question sheet on the table. His eyes were clear until narrowed so stressed he thought about the answer to the question on the sheet.
“Ekhmm, ekhmmmm!”
Flowrence remained silent as someone cleared his throat from the side. He's focused. So even if there's a dinosaur passing in front of him Flowrence won't care. At the moment Flowrence really was unwilling to be bothered. He's got a lot of thoughts right now.
“Hahhhh, long time I can die dry here. Yakk Flow, when are you going to finish a piece about it huh! It's been twenty minutes, but why are you only glaring at him. Let's quickly write your answer!” kluh Karl exhausted his patience waiting for his sister to solve one question he made. It feels like Karl really wants to replace the brain in his sister's head. Stupidly there is no cure.
“Sister Karl, Brother can calm down first no heck. Don't see if I'm working hard to find an answer to this. I'm struggling, Brother Karl!” sahut Flowrence without taking his eyes off the problem sheet.
“Fight ya fight, but not all this time also Flowrence. Jeez!”
Bern who was fiddling with his laptop seemed to glance at the glance as Karl incessantly nagged their sister. Tomorrow is a repeat of the class, so they invite Flowrence to study together because they do not want to be blamed if their sister gets a bad grade. Oya, maybe in this part the plot is deliberately advanced because the mother has been in uber-uber by the readers to immediately uncover who actually bears bad karma. So please be aware that the story becomes a little shorter. So don't demo again, huh?
“Kak Bern?”
“Hmmm,”
“Em, I seem to have lost my energy from not being able to find the answer to the question that Brother Karl gave me,” Flowrence said timidly. She turned to her sister while biting her fingertips. “Will Brother help me?”
“I've guessed,” said Karl exasperated. He then stood up while shaking his waist. His sister is really, that easy matter was not able to solve it. Karl doubted that Flowrence was not actually his younger brother, but a child picked up from the side of the road. Karl and his brother were so smart, but why could Flowrence be so stupid? Though the matter that Karl wrote was only limited to division under a thousand, but why could Flowrence still not answer it? Really, Karl is speechless now. His patience is gone.

“What Mom bothers?”
Elea popped her head after opening the room door. She then smiled as her three compact children nodded their heads.
“Mother, Sister Karl is so evil. My brother has been scolding me ever since. Isn't that right, Brother Bern?” flowrence said complaining to the mother about the attitude of her second brother who was so fierce. She had almost urinated in her pants in shock when her brother suddenly stood up and glared at her.
“Iya,” replied Bern briefly. He refocused on his laptop as his mother stepped into the room.
“Karl, don't be mean to your sister. Be patient, Flowrence isn't the same as you and your brother. So understand when he's slow in digesting what you're saying. Yes?” said Elea lovingly stroking Karl's cheek. This second son of his was indeed a little impatient when it came to dealing with Flowrence.
“Really?”
Karl nodded. He then glanced at Flowrence who was watching him with such an innocent look. Funny anyway, but his stupidity really makes people high blood. Huh.
“What kind of thing did you write for your sister, Karl?” elea asked with a smile. Although both were fifteen years old, but Flowrence still likes to behave like an eight-year-old child. Elea felt sorry for Karl and Bern. They must have felt depressed in the face of his sister's innocence. Hm.
“I made a division under a thousand, Mom. And Flowrence couldn't write down the answer. That's a real shame, isn't it?”
Elea's gaze then turned to Flowrence who was biting her lower lip while swiping both ends of her index finger. This daughter ..how could Elea possibly scold her just for not being able to answer the question given by her son. Her flowrence is so special, so it's no big deal for Elea if Flowrence grows up to be a less smart girl.
“Mother, will Mom scold me like Sister Karl?” ask Flowrence who feels guilty about his inability to learn. “Mother, I also want to be smart like my two brothers. But that I can't do. I tried so hard to find a way to make everyone proud, but failed. I also don't understand why I can be so stupid. I really wonder why I was born different from Brother Karl and Brother Bern. It's weird, isn't it?”
“Honey, you're not stupid. Do you know, you're the most special of your two brothers. You're soft as snow, and your face is as beautiful as an angel. The reason why you can't answer that is because Mom rarely takes the time to teach you to learn. So don't ever think like that again, huh? Mom is so sad now,” Elea replied with teary eyes. He looked at Karl so deeply. “Karl, your sister is not stupid. He's just too special, so he's not as smart as you and like your brother. In the future if you feel unable to teach him to learn, please do not scold him again. Poor Flowrence!”
Bern who was busy with his laptop immediately approached the mother and hugged her wholeheartedly. His heart was uncomfortable to see his mother look sad when talking about his younger brother's shortcomings. As for Karl, he was still stunned to see his mother's tears in her eyes. Feeling guilty, that's for sure. Karl really did not expect that his words would make the mother feel sad.
“Remember Mom's message well, Karl. If this happens again, you will face me!” bern said, staring at Karl. He doesn't like this kind of atmosphere.
“Iya, Brother,” said Karl obediently. She hugged her mother like her sister did. “Mother, I'm sorry yes. I promise next time I won't act fiercely anymore to Flowrence. Tonight I have made an unintentional mistake, please Mom don't be mad at me ya.”
“Which mother might be angry with you. You three are great kids who always make me feel proud. I'm talking like that just because I want to see the three of you always get along even though Flowrence isn't as good as the two of you. Please help Mom take care of her huh?” elea was full of meaning. It was not without reason why Elea was so unable to hold back her tears. Her heart ached too much at the thought that Flowrence would one day be harmed by her own brother. This is what makes Elea so sad.
“Kak, Mom, please hug me too!” whinek Flowrence as he extended his hands asking to be hugged as well. Because his legs are short, Flow so difficult when wanting to hug his mother and two brothers. It's sad, isn't it?
“Hahhh, basic girl slut. Come here!” karl asked Flowrence to come closer to him. After that Karl raised Flowrence's body and hugged her along with her mother.
The study room that had contained the sound of Karl's cry that was upset at Flowrence now changed with a voice of laughter full of jokes that came from the mouth of a mother with her three children. And so happy the four people, they did not realize if there was someone who was wiping his tears from behind the door of the room. Gabrielle, she felt so claustrophobic hearing the laughter of Elea with their three children. Truly, Elea suffered the most. He is like a referee who is forced to be fair in a game of life.
Elea, I love you so much. I hope you're steadfast through all these trials. For our kids, baby. Please be strong ….
