Our Little World's

8. My sister

Mina and Aulia start wearing veils to school. Greeted by the whole class.

"Wahh follow Maryam" said Siska.

Mina took something out of her bag and thrust it at Siska.

"Nih, for you if you want to use" said Mina.

"Hawl?" tanyakanya.

Mina nodded. Siska accepted it and smiled, "I'll try"

Joseph came to class and smiled happily at the change of his two friends. So did Maryam, too,

"Aaaa" Maryam yelled happily and scattered hugs at her two friends.

"I love you guys" he said.

"...

A good friend is a friend who shows kindness..."

Maryam stood up and sat down from her stool, pacing back and forth to Salwa's table.

"I don't understand at all" he said resignedly.

Joseph began to grow sultry because of Maryam's intelligence.

"What the hell do you not understand? do not want to be diem really" said Yusuf annoyed.

"sorry"

Joseph remained silent and began to open his book.

"wanted an answer?" maryam asked Joseph who was seriously working on the problem and looking for answers.

"yet"

"It's so hard. Salwa can't let alone me"

Mina turned around, "Yusuf, you know the answer?" tanyakanya.

Yusuf shook his head.

"I don't like physics" said Maryam, drowning her face in the folds of her hand.

"it's easy to give up" said Yusuf.

Mary rose again and walked towards the table of Salwa.

"eh wait, earlier said you said according to Joseph Hendry the large GGL induction is proportional to the rate of change of current to time. Could I/t dong?" said Maryam while scribbling her book in front of Salwa.

"Yes yes I found the formula" Salwa opened the formula collection book.

"Well, let's try this. Means, GGL induction \= - L ×∆i/∆t" said Salwa.

Maryam smiled, after she finished working on her back to her stool.

"has?" ask Yusuf.

"already dong"

"how?"

"now, use this formula"

"o God, this?" Joseph wanted to convince.

"yes"

"i've been glaring at that formula time"

Mary laughed at Joseph's response.

The Maryam house.

"it's late tomorrow" replied his mother.

"duty for tomorrow ma'am"

"Yaudah, my spit is late in the afternoon" said his mother.

Maryam went straight away. That afternoon, there was a little crowded. He had to wait a bit to print his job. Maryam is a little worried because magrib is soon. Just after the adzan magrib reverberated, he finished printing all his duties.

On the way, he met two men who were walking. They looked at the ignorant Maryam.

"where are you going magrib-magrib?" ask one of them.

Their mouths smell of alcohol when they speak. Their clothes are shabby. Mary kept walking.

"wait wait wait, you're Badi's son, right?"

they know dad? bantin Maryam's.

"yes. what do you want?" ask Maryam defiantly. Thinking that the two men were afraid of his burly and sinister father was just as likely.

They smiled cunningly and drew closer to Maryam.

"It's a good opportunity to avenge his son" said one of them.

Maryam was surprised and ran away but too late. His hand was held and pulled. He shouted very loudly, but his mouth was fixed and his body was held very tightly. Maryam tried to rebel but the man's body was very strong, plus he was a drunken man who might be confused. Maryam continued to rebel and shouted.

"SILENCE OF THE SON OF SATAN!" said the man.

Mary began to cry and ran out of energy to rebel.

Duggs..

"Aaa.." said the man who did not smother Maryam.

Maryam's scars loosened, then slipped away. His breathing began to cramp, but he remained conscious and saw someone he knew.

"this kid's coming along"

"he's my brother"

With trembling hands and in a hurry he searched his cell phone and tried to remember the police number.

oh come on Maryam what the number is, please remember. Kenaoa I can't remember her bantin while remembering.

"Maryam run!!" said the man who had now been surrounded by the two drunkards, his face had several wounds.

Maryam gulped trying to stand up and ran as hard as she could.

"Tolooooong!" With the rest of his voice he screamed.

A person in cocoa and sarong clothes who seemed to have just returned from the mosque was walking and heard him screaming.

"sir, please call the police. There are those who were attacked by drunken thugs" said Maryam while hiccupping.

The man called the police immediately. The man called several other worshippers to help Maryam and went to the scene. The time until Akmal has been battered. All the people who surrounded the two thugs. Maryam approached Akmal who was lying limp on the ground. Fresh blood flowed from his mouth and nose. He gripped his stomach and whimpered in pain. A resident called an ambulance. Along with the police, an ambulance came. Maryam continued to cry in an ambulance to the hospital to see Akmal's condition. Akmal was unconscious on the way.

Maryam waited outside, daydreaming. Akmal's mother and mother rushed to Maryam. Maryam who saw the arrival of her mother immediately hugged her and cried.

"Actmal?" ask mama.

"He's been treated, unconscious" Maryam replied.

"Why? How can this happen" urged his mother Akmal.

Maryam began to tell Akmal's mother from her side. His mother still embraced him and tried to calm the two women beside him.

"Maryam, it's not your fault" Akmal said.

"Lina, let's see Akmal" his mother told Akmal's mother.

The room was quiet, as only Akmal was treated there. All the beds are empty with the divider curtains open. Akmal bed is right in the middle of the room. Akmal's hand in the cast. Upon seeing her child covered in wounds Lina began to cry. Maryam's mother held her.

"Dear, I can't see it like this"

Maryam looked at Akmal with sadness and guilt.
