What is birthday?” suddenly, without warning, this question came out of my mouth.
“Festival day in which one of the human beings celebrates his birth.” Obviously Sister Miya.
“Why should be celebrated?” I who do not understand suddenly wonder back to Sister Miya.
“There is no specific reason, but many people think that, if it can still be celebrated, why not. So the average human being chooses to celebrate.” Said Kak Miya again explained.
“Sister Miya ever celebrated it?” my many.
“Early, but it was a long time ago.” He pondered.
“When I was a child, both my parents were still complete, Mr. Theo's son also often played with me, we were different a few years, younger I was. However, there was the presence of a traitor who killed both of my parents. They also almost killed me if I didn't want to go with Mr. Theo's son. This incident, maybe about 14 years ago, right on my birthday, finally, from there, I never celebrated my birthday again. Wh-wh-what for? If only cause accidents and opportunities for others to sin?” Miya.
My heart was slashed, I thought Miya's life was easy, grew up in affection, and her parents died peacefully. However, it turned out that he had many stories that could not be clarified.
My eyes must be glazed now! How else, my heart was moved to hear Kak Miya's story.
“So how do you want now? How to celebrate?” ask Sister Miya.
“No need to celebrate, I'm afraid I'm going to kayak Kak Miya.” My voice was hoarse, all the sounds I wanted to make felt hard to get out.
“Kakak not only share stories, you do not be afraid so. After all, sister just asked, you like being celebrated for a party like how.” Said Miya again.
“I don't want a party, sis.” My speech.
“Should exist. This will also be included in your lesson, so as not to be surprised for such a big event. So, you have to determine, if you have an event you want that how.” Obviously Sister Miya.
“Not complicated but good.” My word. Yes, I like good but not complicated. Sister Miya seemed to think very hard, before she turned her head to me.
“What color do you like?” ask Sister Miya.
“Pink, blue, all colors!” myrag.
“Like pink means?” tanyakanya.
“Yup, bener.”
Sister Miya then invited me to clean up. For the day is almost back, and my work was done last night. So, in order to shorten the time and do the next task, Sister Miya tidied up our goods together.
The last task is to find a way out. Sister Miya said she wouldn't help me and just followed me. If you get lost is also okay, because he said, he was proficient with the streets here. I can believe it, it wasn't a year or two that he became an old grandfather's confidante.
“Good, sis.” I smiled sweetly, but I didn't know if this would look sweet in her eyes, or even annoying.
In less than an hour, Miya has finished her luggage. He told me to show you the way. I was confused as to which one to choose. I was worried because I wanted to get home faster.
“Straight, aja, Kak.” I walked first with Sister Miya behind me.
“OK. So, explain it, to Brother, you if you want to be like how?” ask again. I don't know how many times he repeated the same sentence.
“Yes ordinary, not a fancy one here and there, ngerepotin many people.” My answer is still the same as before.
A frustrated groan came out from his lips and sounded in my ear. I chuckled amusedly, while in front of me was already faced by the choice of the right and left roads. “Kak, where should we go?” I asked stupidly, already know this duty, and Kak Miya did not want to tell, I should not expect an answer from him.
“Yes don't know, don't ask brother. Ask your heart, want a way through mana.”
Sure enough, he kept his mouth shut and didn't want to tell me at all. I was frustrated. How I take steps. Keep in mind, the road in this forest has a road that is not like the wild forest in general. However, this forest is already forbidden to enter.
Weird, right? It is forbidden to enter but the road is rocky and has a direction like this. It should be covered in grass, right? I don't know, or maybe just lies the forbidden words? It could also be that this forest has an old grandfather, especially Kak Miya is very aware of this forest road. But I don't have any assumptions if it's true.
“Nona. Do you prefer open spaces or closed rooms? If the room is open kayaking on the beach and the like are directly exposed to sunlight, while the room is closed for example lodging places, restaurants, and others that are in the shade and closed.” Said Kak Miya at once explained.
It's also good, Miya explained, because I feel foreign to those words. Need to be reminded, my brain works harder many times than usual.
In addition to digesting what Kak Miya said, I also have to think about which direction I should take towards the way home, not funny if I get lost here until the afternoon, right? Plus I'm tired too, so I have to use my brain very cleverly.
“It looks like the room is closed. You see I don't want to overheat, rain, I like the graceful.” My brain wanders there and here. The shadow of being a princess in that day, is probably the shadow when doing this celebration.
And, yes, I think Sister Miya's question is very strange. If you want to be a princess in a day, why choose in an open room? Isn't that the same as turning yourself off? With a thick and long dress, should the heat? I don't want to!
“I think I understand what you want that was not clear from earlier deh.” Kekeh Miya. I suspect he has other abilities!
“Emang what?” I covered up my suspicions.
“Yes that's it... You don't need to know.” He chuckles a little.
“Alright.” I surrendered. Miya's sister is very difficult to correct the information.
About twice we went around in circles. When I'm tired, Miya doesn't get tired. He casually followed me without even grumbling a bit.
Finally, I could see the residents' houses after understanding the meandering grooves here. That is, if you choose right, then choose left, then right, and left again. And so on, until my sister and I got to the courtyard of the people's house. We stopped by one of the houses to ask for a drink.
