My Love White Grey

10. Dio

"trrenngggg"Dio packed the can where it used to store rice.dio often did such a ridiculous thing.the voice sounded loud in the ear.he sat at the door and daydreamed.

"Why are you?"that was until I saw Dio's eyes glazed over.

"brother, torment, torment" Dio's tears spilled into my arms.

"say what's wrong?, does anyone bother you?or scold you?"I kept asking questions.

"no brother, no one scolds me and annoys me!"the boy scolded while explaining a bit of a whim.

"then what made you question Dio?"I wiped my sister's tears slowly.

"what are we eating tonight?in the can there was no rice to cook into rice"Dio finally answered the cause he was crying.

"don't worry, I'll cook dinner for us, come on!" Yana takes Dio into the house.

Dio's my little brother, he's the only friend who feels most at home with me, because my other brother is married, and some are out of work.

to be sure, the occupants of this house that is always there are only mamak, me and dio.because if the father, he will be home if he has returned from the land of the region.

"wait here, I'll be out front for a minute!"

Dio just nodded in agreement.

......................

"Yana,, wait!"someone called my name.

"Jeny, what's wrong?"Yana stopped him from stepping.

"you're going to the stall, right?"

"yes, what does Jen need?

"it's nothing, but we're good-natured, I want to buy something too"Jeny held my hand.

Jeny my best friend since childhood, we had one school when we were in elementary school, after that we only met when we came home from school, because our school . But sometimes I keep my distance from him because his mother Jeny once forbade him from being friends with me.

but I never told Jeny, not even to this day did Jeny know about it.

"what are you going to buy Na?"Jeny broke my daydream.

"oh, I want to buy eggs and rice! let's hurry !"I also accelerated our steps.

arriving at the shop we bought what we needed, and immediately left the stall.

"Na, tomorrow we're off! you come home, yes, I have some new novels at home" Jeny persuaded me with her new novel.

"Jen, I'm not against it, but tomorrow I have a job so I can't come to your house, but next time I'll come!"I smiled .

I'm sorry Jeny, I really want us to be like we used to be.joking around, reading the latest novel, funny story, book of novels and much more that I miss when we're together.maybe this is better, maybe,so that your mother will not be angry.

"you promised, you'd come to my house!"Jeny looked at me.

"yes I'm coming, hehe, heh"

'yes, I go first Jen" I left first.

actually what Yana was hiding from me, she was always avoiding me. Before she was all right! Jeny wondered in her heart.

"Dio, when you got home from school who was home?"I asked Dio after coming home from the stall.

"when Dio came home from school, nobody was home!"why is that, brother?Dio was curious.

"why is it that only our homes are dark, when I'm on tv, their lights are on.Why is our house dark?"Dio followed me in wonder like me.

out of curiosity Yana and Dio also came out to see the electricity meter outside, there was something attached, yellow and there was writing there.

"degh"

it turns out that the PLN cut off the electricity to our house because it was three months in arrears.

"why brother? Dio looked at me in wonder.

"The electricity in our house is cut off" she glazed over looking at Dio.

it was getting dark, and some people noticed our dark house and there was only a candlelight to help illuminate us.

"sister, are we getting our electricity back in tomorrow?Dio asked innocently.

"hmmmm, maybe! oh yeah, what time is it?my sister is getting hungry! Yana switched the conversation.

"it may be eight o'clock" Dio went to look at the clock in the front room.

"czech"the door opened there was someone who entered the house.

"go home"Dio shouted

"where's brother ?mamak asked as he walked slowly towards the kitchen.

"Sir, our electricity meter is sealed" my eyes started to glaze over

"huffffff"

"yes mamak know, maybe two or three days ahead of us like this.mamak blom there is money to pay the electricity bill that has been delinquent three months"mamak shed tears.

"we ate first, Mommy, I just finished cooking!"Yana deliberately diverted the conversation.

...****************...

Yana did not go to school because she was waiting for her graduation announcement.she did homework, Dio left for school by herself this morning.

mamak sat in the kitchen alone, many thoughts and burdens made the middle-aged woman a little older, her puffy eyes made Yana's heart even sadder.

"tok,, tok,, tok"

Yana ran to open the door of the house.he spirit ran to open the door, he hoped that the one who knocked on the door was his father who he had long missed.

"where's your mother?"

"degh", who had been smiling, hoped to meet his father at once quietly see a father who was looking for his mother.

"it's in the pack, please come in"Yana let him in.

the mother who heard me talking to a man at the door came straight over.

"why is the electricity in this house turned off?, how many months have you not paid the bill"

the owner of the house was angry.

"forgive us sir, we don't have any money yet, and then after my husband comes home we will pay it off" he begged with tears in his eyes.

"ah, you're always waiting, the rented house is also waiting!"the owner of the contract increasingly snapped at Mamak.

"you better get out of this house, you're gonna have to vacate this house as soon as possible" the father raised his voice.

"please sir, give us a little time.at this time we have no money.again our father has not yet returned to work, please have mercy on us sir"

I begged the landlord's father, I couldn't bear to see my mother being yelled at.I cried holding tightness in my chest.

"well, I give you one Sunday, in one Sunday you have to vacate this house" the father remembered us again.

"well sir"mamak said slowly.

the landlord left me and mamak.he even left without permission.

"Mak" I'm a mamak who's been crying since then.hope that he's calmer.

"what should we do Yana?where are we going?"my mother cried and kept asking me.

"Mamak calm the mind first, after that we just find a way out" I get a glass of water for him.
