Merantau To Riau Islands

Go home or stay ?

Alda has returned to his hometown, he said he also wants to continue his education oe higher level. For my desire to go to this city, I want to find a fee for college and not charge my parents. Parents work for children. But, if I feel like I've grown up looking for myself, why ask my parents, I have to fight for the future. Our future, we seek it ourselves, not our parents or brothers.

Alya and Indira continue their contracts as regular employees, because they are extravagant, so for these three years they do not have much money. Shame to go home, they extended the contract.

Check the balance in the Bank, it turns out that there are also almost 100 60 million. My savings are the most from the rest. I go in a lot of overtime, work on Sundays and holidays after Ied prayers it's just a hajj pilgrimage because I don't go home. Get bonus craft and skill salary.

"Alhamdulillah, 60 million."

"A lot of it, Na." Alya. Alya and I have been friends for 2 years.

"Yes, I'm saving."

"Honey my money is only 5 million" said Aira.

"My money's 3 million." Alya.

"You shop mulu don't think savings. Tuh, see all the latest brands you must buy, want to send to many villages bangat. Want to sell again, dear fall will be cheap."

Return to the boarding house Alya and Indria briefly want to take all the items they borrowed. Initially the loss gives them the goods I just bought sometimes wear it not yet this has been borrowed. I decided not to shop for the future. It's just the bags, clothes and shoes I bought the same Alda he borrowed.

"Yes, Here. Nyesal bangat I tuh wasteful. borrow your money, Na, 3 million aja.  Later if I extend the contract I replace." said Alya memelas minjam money, this is the umpteenth time minjam money but I rarely love the reason for saving. Replace him if he has extended the contract. Unfortunately I'm no longer here. I have returned to the city of Padang. Yes, if they get a job. Find work today is difficult to many in PHK, and PHK season.

"Oh, I can't, I want to go home to college." They're both like Alda's boarding friends, like they like to borrow-minhours.

"Let's just change later." change, which yesterday has not been replaced let's be sincere. Well, sustenance is nowhere.

"Can't, Yes. This is still lacking in your time, the habit deh end is also not replaced. Change the money first!" Alya gasped to hear I collect thousands of money that they often borrow if counted many can also cost home.

"Later I'll replace the twofold." a thousand or so in this change want to replace the double, BASI.

"You're so mute, minhours every day but don't change, now want to replace double mending don't need to, I go first Bay." Take all the things Alya and Indira borrowed exactly as we did Alda's friend. Duh, everywhere live benalu always there.

"Eh, Nana wait!"

"Where is Al, Nana?" 

"This time no Aira."

"Mobile warms him. He's a tight-knit friend and the hardest to use. Sharp his instinct, like he knew his friend wanted to minjam his money before he ran away

"Yes, Biasa, the field man. People put the stingy."

The sound of their voices talking about me, I can still hear even though it is not clear because of the noise of the neighboring motorbike and others let them talk about what is important I get away from them. They're not like the people I first knew who were so kind and considerate, now the debtor. Debt, debt, debt there is no day without debt. Shopping habits make salary drop in place.

-------

All this time I've closed my heart to any man. Doctor Fernando only came when I blocked all his access. Ask why it's blocked? What was? Wh why? What harm?

Flashbacks

"Hi, Nana. How are you?"

"Hi, too, Mr. Good news, Father how are you?"

"Yes, like this, sir. Just fine."

"Oh, yeah, to the point. Why are you blocking all our access? What was? Wh why? Is it my fault for you?" Suddenly Bang Faisal appeared in front of me in the cafe on the 4th floor of the Mall top 100.

"I'm sorry, sir, there's no intention and nothing wrong. There's only one person who sent a picture of the two of us in the cinema to the HP Bang Faisal. He's mad at me for not being friends with any guy because Bang Faisal just wants me to focus on the future."

"I don't think that's the case, am I wrong with you?"

"There's nothing wrong sir, I just fucked Bang Faisal aja."

"I'm sure there's something you're hiding, to be honest, Na."

"There is no sir. I'm sorry, I've got the chat I want to go first."

-------

There's no harm in just focusing on the future. Bang Faisal has been yelling at me so it does not dare to neko-beko even a speck of mud. Doctor Nando's words in the movies didn't apply after that he himself didn't do why I had to sue.

Let it walk as it is.

"Bang, I'm going home tomorrow." Bang Faisal is making a small stall near here, because the contract has moved to the side of the road and the school makes residents compete to open a business here especially for those affected by PHK so that his wife does not feel struggling alone.

"No intention of going to college here?" 

"No, Bang, besides Abang does not work, kak shela himself is still a reluctant work Bang. Even in the city of the college field is no less good."  Currently in 2014 Thousands of employees both contract and permanent especially men in PHK are massive only women who are not in PHK, especially women who are not in PHK, So kak shela who works good luck still sided with them.

"Abang also work, nih want to open a business. You can help Abang sellan, in the village there is also Angga who takes care of Mother. Here brother shela work, Fatih forced Brother to take care that Brother was busy serving customers fear Fatih was abandoned."

"Don't be abandoned, either, Bang."

"You went to college. While helping my brother. Later you can pay for it. In the village there are many relatives who help Mother, but here it is not."

"I thought, Bang."

On the one hand I want to go home, on the one hand Brother told me to go to college here, worried. I can go to college here, but Bang Faisal doesn't work. I don't want kak shela to be burdened because of the existence of me here whose life I'm responsible for. I can look for scholarships until I get them. What kind of work will Bang Faisal do?

"But! What business do you want to open?"

"Children's snacks, martabak and ordinary stalls."

"Oh,"

Go back to my room and call Mom to ask for a solution.

"Hallo, Mom."

"Hallo, Na, how are you?"

"My news, as usual ma'am. Mom, how?"

"Alhamdulillah, fine. What's your verdict, Na. What, do you want to go home, is that still there?"

"Not yet, Mom. Brother said, I went to college here while helping two sales, sister shela work because Bang Faisal in PHK."

"You think?"

"Why do you think?"

"According to Mother it's up to you, want to pulanh yes already, want to survive there already."

"Emang, you don't mind?"

"Why mind? Mother's children are adults, can already find their own identity, Mother agrees - okay, the important thing is there is a purpose. Mom here is okay. There are Angga and relatives who help Mother. Bang Faisal is also open?"

"Yes. Yeah, I've, I've only survived here."

"If you don't have any money, call Mom, let me send you the money."

"Did you still have the money I sent you first?"

"Still, no matter what you wear. You, you know I have a business too, it's all for you."

"All right, ma'am."

"Assalamualaik."

"Getishalight."
