METANOIA, A Wonder Place
Episode 1's
It's a story before I know what's been forgotten, that day I just
ordinary city girl, not too popular or smart in school, just one
what distinguishes me from the child in general, is the condition of my body that is weak.
I'm very susceptible to illness or fever when tired, even dust can make me sneeze overwhelmed, it makes me very rarely go to school, it makes me, and it is perfectly natural that there is
didn't recognize me, but it was my last day of school, so the doctor let me go.
He said, I might want to say goodbye to a classmate, or maybe party before graduation. But sure enough, I don't even know anyone this year.
Without a party or a farewell, I graduated with a lot of help, from my father and mother, and the teachers so I could graduate. Maybe they're tired of reading my sick license, or getting a call from the hospital, so it's better to just pass me. I feel sorry for them, sometimes.
Unlike my brother, Lavi who is super popular in his class, and even the children of one of my generation to know him, and if anyone knows me it must be because of Lavi.
My two twin sisters are no less popular either. Yes, our age is not too far away, and because of this zoning system we four stacked in one school environment.
Sometimes I feel jealous of my brothers, but I can't hate them, other than my brother and the twins, I don't think anyone else wants to play, or talk to me at school, and no
rarely will they ever judge me endlessly, especially the twins.
Arya and Arie are their names, made to sound similar for easy recall, at least
that's what I thought, when my parents named them, but I had prepared a long line of names, which I would submit as a reference to their names.
But my father just ignored me. He said, when I asked why naming them so “the classic and common names are so much better”, and it was just getting harder to tell them apart, in my opinion.
But it was then, now that seeing the two of them alone, I can immediately tell the difference. Arya has dark circles under her eyes that she tries to cover with makeup, and gets thicker every day. Almost every night too, I hear Arie nagging her to get to bed on time.
Trust me, it doesn't work for Arya unless you turn off the power at home, and she does
will nag a few moments and fall asleep already. Sometimes we do it if we have to.
For the sake of Arie who can not sleep, if Arya who is doing some experiments, or strange discoveries to stay up late. Yeah, it's gotta be done.
Unlike Arya, Arie is like Lavi, she is no less popular, and most annoyingly, if I can tell you the truth. He would follow me, or at least one of us if bored, or would probably talk non-stop non-stop all day.
But of course, no one knows about it, only we his family know the truth.
To others, she was a very cool young girl. With her tall body, and incredible self-confidence, she has modeled several times in several shootings, and Lavi has also occasionally. But she is very busy so it is not uncommon for her to turn down offers to be a model in some local magazines.
Honestly, for a man as popular as he is, it is rare to see him go to parties, or gather with his friends.
He just focused on his studies, and he succeeded, received in one of the famous universities in our city. It was amazing, and this time, he graduated with great appreciation. But this is the first time, I see him confused, what next step he will take.
Many companies offered him jobs, but none of them took him, nothing seemed to suit his interests, or perhaps, he wanted something new.
His gaze was empty, like it penetrated into my body's cavities. This kid used to be not so
annoying, and noisy as it is now, even Arya who used to be so, they are like swapped souls.
Suddenly, she turned her eyes towards the door of the room, like a dog that knew her master was coming, and mother knocked on my door and entered, mother asked me about my condition, and Arie walked out.
“Mom thinks, what if we move into your great-grandmother's house? ”
“Grandmother great? “
“Yes, great-grandmother of your father. We talked about it at dinner last night, and everyone seemed to agree.”
“So?“
If everyone agrees, it's impossible for me to disagree. “Home in the countryside, close to the forest,” said my father, who suddenly spoke from the doorstep of the room.
“Your mother thinks, maybe the rural air will be good for your health, and will probably help your kaka, to decide his decision.”
“And help your father, finish the old writing, not finish it,” timpal my mother.
I just fell silent, it felt like they had already made their choice and led me, to answer the same choice. “Alright, when will we move?“ Seen a sense of satisfaction on the face of the mother, and a breath of relief from the father.
“Maybe next month, the faster the better.”
“ Yes, but your father and ravi, will check the location next week first.”
From their explanation it seems that the place is very beautiful and not far from the city.
A few days later, my mother and Arya were busy, packing furniture and other items, and I helped as much as I could. However, these dusts only make me sneeze, every time my little nose starts to blush, and every time I sneeze, my mother's face seems more worried, so I stay away, and try to do something else to make it look useful.
At that time I realized, I did not see Arie helping, or hear the chat as usual, “Arie where?” Ask me as soon as I realize it.
“Maybe you should talk to her” said my mother, pointing to the house
tree outside the window.
The tree has been very big, since the first time I planted it as a child, with my father and Lavi. The tree continued to grow, until we could build a small tree house, made five of us on it.
I knock on the small door and open it, Arie sits in the corner of his favorite with a smartphone in hand.
Her face is sour, and at the same time also looks beautiful, but can I read in her eyes she is sad, “you do not want to move?“ Ask me, while placing my body in my favorite corner, which is currently bathed in the afternoon sun.
Arie just remained silent, and took a breath of caution back on his smartphone. “ If move, Arya and I also have to change schools.”
