The next day, after Dini and her mother finished breakfast, Dini expressed her intention to work for her mother.
"Mom, what if I'm looking for a job?" dini hesitated, she was not sure if her mother would allow it.
"What work Din? focus on school."
"Here can work anything after school, Dini also certainly can still focus on school" said Dini reassured his mother.
"Dear, you have to keep the focus of school to make you proud of your achievements, after you graduate high school and college, you can just work."
"So you can go to college and work, Mom?" ask Dini enthusiastically.
"But you have to promise mom, if education remains number one for you."
"Yes, Mom, I promise you."
"Here, you are the pride of your only mother, take care of yourself even if there is no mother here, mother always pray for you," said Mother Dini held back tears that were about to drip.
"Yes Ma'am, Dini will not be disappointed mother, Dini love the same mother."
They cuddle. The brightly shining sun was apparently unable to illuminate the Early heart that was enveloped in black clouds.
From tomorrow on, no soft voice calls out to her every day, no more simple loving dishes that I eat every day.
Millions of memories that will never be lost that he stored deep in his heart. Inevitably he had to toughen up to let his mother go. He should stand up straight with his sweetest smile. He did not want to break up with his mother leaving a cry of sadness, because he knew his mother was heavy to choose this path but still able to stand firm with the sweetest smile that was never seen from anyone but his mother.
After she finished helping her mother pack, Dini drove her mother to Andi's house. There are already Pak Joko and Bu Joko - Andi's parents who are ready to take Dini's mother out of town.
That day Dini and Andi were deliberately absent from school. Dini did not want to lose every second of moments with her mother before her mother actually went out of town for a long time. As for Andi, of course he will not let Dini feel his own slump. He wants to be with Dini always, accompany her at any time.
It was very hard for Dini to let her mother go. The tears that he had been holding back from earlier finally spilled out as well. His sobs were heartbreaking, the tightness in his heart was so painful he felt. He hugged his mother and promised to bring her back. Everything there was powerless to hold back the slowly shedding tears.
In the end, it is the separation that is still chosen, although painful, everyone will experience it. Although not the will of the heart, but circumstances that force go.
Now there's only Dini and Andi. Andi's parents had escorted Dini's mother to their brother's house outside the city.
"Let's go to Din!" bring Andi.
Just be quiet and obey.
"Have you eaten Din?"
Dini still silently did not answer, only shook her head.
"I make noodles with your favorite egg!"
He shook his head without making a sound.
He was always trying to strengthen his heart, but it wasn't that easy.
Andi sat beside Dini, hugged her, gently stroked her hair and said,
"Don't arrest Din."
She was crying in Andi's arms. He felt half his soul was gone.
Andi who saw Dini like that also felt the pain felt Early. He could only hug her, letting her drown in grief but only for a while. Andi promised himself that he would not let Dini feel alone, he would not let Dini cry with sadness like this.
"Din, if your mother sees you like this, your mother must be sad, your happiness is the source of your mother's strength, your mother chose this heavy path for your future."
"I know it's hard for you to accept this, but I'm sure you can, show your mother that you are the only pride that will never disappoint your mother" Andi continued.
"Can I be Ndi?" ask Dini.
"Can Din, I'm sure you can, I'm always here for you."
"I don't want to be alone."
"You're not alone, you've got me, you've got my parents too, they've taken you as my own adek Din."
"Here, you have to get up, this slump is not what your mother wants, you know what makes your mother happy?"
Dini shakes.
"Your happiness Din, that's what your mother always wanted to see."
"How can I be happy if you're not here?"
"Although far away, your mother must understand what you feel, the inner bond of the child and mother can not be broken by any distance Din."
Dini rubbed her tears that did not stop flowing from the corner of her eyes.
"Now, you have to get up, focus on learning, focus on school, focus on your dreams, I'm sure you can."
"Unless you want to marry a rich old virgin hahaha." ledek Andi.
Dini smiled and hit Andi's arm.
Andi was relieved that Dini could already smile again, at least the little dark cloud in her heart was gone.
They sat side by side on Andi's living room sofa.
Dini rested her head on Andi's shoulder.
"Ndi, you don't go yes" said Dini slowly.
Andi clasped his hands.
"I'm always here for you Din" replied Andi.
Being too tired to cry, Dini fell asleep on Andi's shoulder.
Slowly and carefully, Andi carried Dini to her room. He threw his body in his bed.
It looks so slick. His nose was reddened by a long cry.
Andi sat on his bedside and looked at the beautiful face of his beloved friend. He promised to always make that face smile, erasing all the sadness that took away his laughter.
"Din, if you knew how I felt about you, would you be angry? are you going to hate me? or will you even leave me? what if the love in a friendship is wrong? if so, why does this love exist? why does this feeling continue to grow even though I am trying to eliminate it? what can I do to make this wrong feeling go away? I love you Din, more than a friend, more than a sharing friend, I want you to be completely mine Din, but I realize it's impossible, and as long as you know, I know, this love hurts me Din, this love torments me," said Andi who unconsciously began to shed tears.
"What did you say Ndi?" ask Dini suddenly.
