Married With My First Love (Travel Story of Lantern Love And Scintillating)
25.Complicated Family
This morning Lantern headed to school with doubt, busy to strengthen his heart to really be able to meet friends Gilang at school.
He walked while continuing to think, would say what he was if Gilang's friends asked about who he was.
..."Aaarrrghh mas Gilang there-anya, why use to run away all the hell, the end even I'm bothered, I have to say what try if his friends are who I am!" His grunts while waiting for the bus to stop....
...*...
Gilang today was forced to be absent, because he did not bring his school clothes, he stayed in Beni's room all day until the time to go home from school.
Beni himself still went to school so that his parents who were out of town were not angry with him.
She was a little lucky because no one in her friend's house looked a little bigger than her.
...*...
Jullie's mother decided to take a break from work today, while waiting for news from the Lantern, also went out for a while with the driver she had called to go buy something to be given to Gilang,she felt guilty for forgetting her son's birthday.
Jullie's mother finally bought a new phone that was quite expensive, since long Gilang did intend to replace his old phone, but because of his father's hard attitude, because of his father's attitude,jullie's mother often thought back to give her youngest child something quite expensive.
Because he also felt, ever since Gilang received his sixteenth birthday gift at that time, which was in the form of a large motorbike that he really wanted, Gilang has been seen less eager in learning, and he has been less eager in learning,and just want to play with his friends.
But this time, because it was enough to feel guilty, he finally gave up some of his savings that were always set aside every month for the sudden needs of Gilang, because he was afraid if he had to ask his husband, just to buy an expensive cellphone.
...*...
Schoolgoing.
During the first break, Lantern ventured to find Gilang friends whom she had seen several times when they ate together at the bagin, although previously had to bother asking permission to take her phone from the homeroom teacher,then change the name of Jullie's mother with Aunt Jullie, not without reason, because she had to claim to be Gilang's cousin, then she had to prepare something so as not to look suspicious.
He feels like a spy today.
..."Huuhh, zest."whisper to himself....
Dikantin looks very crowded, there is no way Lantern to meet Beni and his gang openly if he does not want to be the center of attention.
Finally he chose to sit there without eating anything, only ordering one jumbo-sized thaitea glass while continuing to wait for Gilang's friends to leave from there.
After finishing his food and drink, they finally left there, also making Tera have to rush after him while carrying the rest of his drink.
Tera chases Beni and other friends who seem to be heading into the sport.
..."Eemmhh sorry, excuse me."he said from behind Beni et al....
..."You call us." replied Beni....
..."Yes brother, really."...
..."What's wrong,btw what class are you in?"...
..."Ohh I'm eleventh grade."...
..."Oh okay, what business do we have, like the first new cave lo."...
..."Eemh this is brother, brother friend Kak Gilang right?"...
..."Yeah, why?" Beni who continues to answer because other friends like not interested in seeing Tera, especially Jihan who seems to feel annoyed because there are people who know Gilang other than himself in this school....
..."Sorry brother, I'd like to ask, where is he now, so his mother nyariin him?"...
..."Sorry yes, I asked first,lo who is Gilang, why can you know his mother nyariin him?"...
..."Oh that, my cousin Gilang kak, this morning his mother called me to Gilang's house, because please ask Gilang with you?"....
..."Where is the evidence for Gilang's cousin?"...
..."This is my sister, I have Aunt Jullie's number." Tera showed Gilang his mother's number....
That's right Gilang's mother's number as Beni often sees on Gilang's phone.
..."Okay, while I'm Vidio Call Gilang, do you really make your cousin or not?"...
..."Yes brother."...
..."You guys go first, let me take care of this, because Gilang is in my house." Beni asks her friends to leave her....
Gilang raised a call from Beni.
..."Why bro?"...
..."This is something you nyariin, he said the cousin lo,gue want mastiin really not." Beni pointed her front camera at Tera's face....
..."Yeah, bro, bener, why is he?"...
..."Said lo nyariin's mother, keep telling this child nanya kegue, mending you go home aja deh, before your mother who nyariin nyariin school, can dizziness me."...
..."Yes, bro, you'll be home from school and I'll be home."...
..."Okay, bro, there you go, until I go home, just eat what is, don't look for the weird, huhahah." Beni disconnected her phone....
..."You already know Gilang where, then go home to school I immediately bring him home."...
..."Yes brother, thank you.",...
..."Okay"....
They split up there, Tera returned to her class with a little tense despite being calm because she knew the whereabouts of Gilang.
..."Hello ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you."...
..."Not tera, it's just that mom again waiting for news from you, how have you met friends Gilang?"...
..."Yes ma'am, I just met them, he said while Gilang was at his friend's house, later in the afternoon to be escorted home."...
..."Thank goodness Tera, mom is relieved, thanks a lot baby, has helped mom."...
..."Yes ma'am both."...
Tera disconnected the phone and then returned to save the phone in the cell phone storage box at the teacher's desk.
...*...
He would have been a mockery of one school if he knew that he was not Gilang's cousin, but only the son of an assistant who worked at the house.
He locked himself in his room and sat down on his little couch, and kept staring out to make sure Gilang had gone home.
...*...
Finally after half-five in the afternoon, Beni came to deliver Gilang, Beni went inside and apologized to Jullie's mother.
..."Sorry aunt, I just sent Gilang home, last night he stayed at my aunt's house."...
..."There's nothing, there's no need to apologize, because the wrong aunt, so run away and trouble you, you want to drink first."...
..."Emmh do not need a aunt, I rush home because my parents also want to go home, so I say yes aunt!"...
..."Oh yeah, thank you for taking care of your aunt, you be careful."...
..."Yes aunt."...
Beni returns home, and Gilang stays silent in front of his mother.
..."I'm sorry ma'am." said Gilang despite not daring to look at his mother's face....
..."Mom who apologized Gilang, because he was busy working, mom to forget about you, but if you know son, all mom do so you can keep living well, and stay at home with mom at home,ever since your two sisters left home, you've been afraid that you've thought the same as them, and left mom alone at home."Jullie's mom looks dappled...
..."I know ma'am, but that doesn't mean time for me is always sacrificed, ma'am, especially now, since there's a lantern in this house, my mom's always working hard with me, I know it's just not for me,but for Lanterns too."...
..."Forgive me once again, son, such a mother because the lanterns are good children, and mother considers her like your sister because she is dear to her,but dear mother the same you remain the most important, because you are a mother's child, you do not be angry and hate the lantern, he did not ask mother to be kind to him, he did not ask mother to be kind to her,but it's because it's a mother who wishes she could be like a mother's son, too."...
..."You also do not hate the same Dad, son, Your father is like that because you hope you can help in Dad's office later."...
"But mom, I never had any intention of getting into Dad's company, I don't understand mom, I just want to live my life like my sister's mom, they're free to choose where they go,but why don't I?"
..."I'm still not going to cooperate with you, but I promise I won't leave here, please help me ma'am."...
..."Crazyblonde."...
..."I'm gonna take a break mom."...
Gilang left his mother who looked sad there.
In any case, Gilang has the right to determine his own life.
But on the other hand they are getting older, what if they are no longer able to manage the company they have desperately maintained it.
Her mother can no longer talk much about her children's wishes.
She sat there until almost nightfall, and when her husband arrived, they immediately talked about what Gilang had said to her mother earlier.
..."Did you say you came home?" Ask Hermawan to his wife....
..."It's a mas, so it's ushered in his friend."...
..."Good, if you still know yourself."...
..."Mas, I'm asking for help, don't be too hard with Gilang, he still doesn't know anything like his brother first, he still wants to be free like other children."...
..."Ma'am, how free is he, he's been playing so much that he forgot to study, you see for yourself, his grades have dropped over the past year, how can he go to college in a good place?" Gilang's father was a good man, but there were times when it was about his children....
..."But mas, Gilang also has no desire to continue our business in the office, so he said that he will stay at home anytime, but still do not want to work in the office."...
..."I don't know what these kids are thinking, they're all stubborn with their own wills, have they forgotten where we're living them, why they're all avoiding office work."...
..."Already mas, we will not be able to force them to follow our will, I'm grateful because Gilang wants to stay home, we just pray that Andrian can still help us even from afar."...
..."Okay, but please pay attention to the boy, not until he feels unnoticed again, please tell him I'm sorry."...
It was his father's custom that he could never show his affection for his children, and always apologized through his wife
..."Ok mas."...
Jullie's mother stepped up to Gilang's room, leaving her husband who was beginning to look stressed, as he kept thinking about his work.
...*...
In his room, Gilang opened a paper bag that was placed on the nightstand beside his bed.
He looks happy, because finally he can have a cellphone that is quite expensive for most other students.
He opened the box carefully.
Holding her new phone, she opened the door to her room because her mother suddenly knocked outside.
..."What's the matter, mom, you told me, Dad, if I don't want to work at Dad's office.?"...
Mother nodded.
..."I'm here to tell you that your father is sorry for being rude to you, so next time please don't make your father angry again."...
..."Yes ma'am, oh yes this must be the mother who bought it, right?"...
..."Yes son, you like it, right?"...
..."I like it mom."...
..."Thank goodness you like it, forgive me, because it's too late to give you a birthday present."...
..."No, ma'am, thank you ma'am."...
..."Yes, baby, you don't be reckless anymore, yes, it's there to rest, don't forget to come down to dinner."...
..."Ready mom."...
They were all smiling at each other's places, as complicated as their families.
