Za, this is God's favorite biscuit, this one's milk. Then these sleeping pajamas. If it rains wear long sleeves."
Eiza simply nodded while listening to the messages from Keylin, her brother. He understood Keylin's possessive attitude towards the child like a young mother in general. After all, Keylin had only left God for a few days.
"Don't forget after dinner, help God brush your teeth" Keylin added.
"Yes, brother," answered Eiza.
"Continue the schedule of the school God should not be lost. Remember he's in at eight and he's coming home at ten."
Eiza nodded back. He did not understand why a three-year-old child like God had entered the school every day. As he remembered back then when he was the age of a God, he was still playing with dolls and running around. He has not memorized letters and numbers let alone learn English. The children of the present generation are very different from themselves.
"How, Honey? Have you finished giving Eiza a message?" ask Denis smiling sideways. Because he saw the face of his sister-in-law was already turbid like a water comberan.
"almost done. Just show me the drugs and phone numbers that are important just in case."
"Don't take it long, honey. We have to leave in an hour."
Keylin immediately held Eiza's hand towards her room.
"Za, this is paracetamol for fever reducers, this one is a disposable compress. It's wind oil, and...."
"Sister, I can read it myself. I am twenty-one years old. How could I not know about the medicine," Eiza cut in annoyance. He wondered why his brother was acting as if he was going to go to the other country. In fact, he will only go to Palembang for three days to attend the wedding of cousin Denis. Keylin and Denis were asked to be witnesses to the wedding.
"Silver just make sure. This book has an important phone number. From pediatricians, electricians, water gallons to healthy caterers it's all here."
Eiza squeaked while patting her own forehead. Keylin still recorded the phone number in the book. Though his brother just bought the latest mobile phone output by Denis.
"There's more, brother? If Brother does not go, soon God will wake up crying because he does not want to be left," threatened Eiza. In fact, he was tired of the many suggestions and messages that Keylin said. Even her mother during her life never spoke that long.
"Yes, my brother is leaving now. Soon Sister Siti will come, you tell her to clean the house as usual."
"Ready, boss," replied Eiza.
"Za, we're leaving. If there's anything, don't hesitate to call us" Denis said before leaving home.
"Titip the God yes, Za. Love her and take care of her for Big Brother" Keylin said suddenly.
"Deg."
Eiza's heart rippled to hear Keylin's words. I don't know why he gave her the last message. But Eiza hurriedly brushed off that thought. He chooses to.introduce Keylin and Denis up to the car.
Looking at the ever-friendly couple, Eiza smiled to herself. Yes, they are the perfect couple. Eiza secretly hopes that one day she can build a happy household like Keylin.
Since her mother died three months ago, Eiza has indeed lived with Keylin and Denis. It was also at the request of his brother. So Eiza had gotten used to helping nurture her nephew, the God. It's just that the biggest challenge this time is that he has to take care of God alone on the sidelines of busy applying for a job as a teacher.
"Spirit, Za," Eiza murmured as she walked towards the room of the Gods.

"Tante, can't you eat this?" the Lord asked, showing him a chocolate bar. The voice of the God cedal always sounded funny in Eiza's ears. It was unexpected that these small things turned out that God was very observant in finding the chocolate that Eiza hid in the drawer.
"No, no, no. The god just recovered from a cough. Mama's forbidden God from eating chocolate."
"But the Gods want to," whined the boy. Eiza immediately snatched the chocolate from the hands of the Gods.
"Mama and Papa are going home today. If God is wayward, later God will be pinched with Mama. Wanna?"
"No way, Auntie," answered the Lord shaking his head.
"Smart kid. We eat apples now. Aunty take it from the fridge."
Eiza was relieved because during these three days the Gods were rarely fussy. He can also do his job without any hindrance. Now it's just waiting for Keylin and Denis to return home.
"Mbak Siti, what time is it?" eiza asked the maid at Keylin's house.
"Four eleven, Non."
"Kok Kak Keylin hasn't nyampe yet?"
"Maybe it's stuck in the street, Non."
"If the toll should not be too jammed, Ma'am," replied Eiza. He placed a plate containing apples on the dinner table and began to feed the God. Right at that moment there was a ringing phone in the middle room.
"Let me lift, Non," said Ms Siti out of the kitchen.
Eiza still continued to feed the Gods until there were no apples left. But he was surprised by the voice of Mbak Siti who half shouted. Suddenly, Eiza carried the God and took him to the living room.
"Mbak Siti, what's wrong? Who's that call from?" tanya Eiza looked at the face of Madam Siti who was deathly pale.
"Mistress and Master...."
"Sister Keylin and Brother Denis why, Ma'am?" eiza asked impatiently. A bad feeling suddenly ambushed his heart.
"This is from the Police Officer, Non. They said Mrs and Mr.. accident on the highway," Mbak Siti replied stammering.
