"Why is there a swing here, does mas rei also like a swing?"

"No, this swing was just a few months ago, I prepared a special for you."

"really?"

"Hmmm. Because I'm serious about making you my wife someday."

"Mmmm, wait. Hehehe."

"Ok, it doesn't matter."

"Cista, Rei. Let's eat first." There was the sound of mama Rita screaming from the dining room.

We also had lunch together. After that we talked at length.

"Darling mama equally papa har want condangan continue to want to go straight back to purwokerto. Mama's gonna go to bandung to see you."

"Okay ma, be careful."

"So now we're in a threshing son." Dzaky Word .

"Yes mom is lazy to have boys like you."

"Huuft sucks. Bad mama, look at bad mama's reward."

"Papa's lazy to have boys like you. "

"What kind of parents are you."

Hahahahaha, our laughter filled the family room. That simple joke made a very strong warmth felt in this family, I so longed to gather like this with my family.

After an afternoon we drove me home.

"Mas I want to go home."

"All right, let me take you. But give me a hug first."

"Mas."

Yes that's how I got along with her, there's no dating status between us, but we're still on good terms. We are getting closer and getting to know each other. Moreover, our family had been close for a long time even though I had only met him for a few years. For me it's more convenient to relate to someone if we've known both of his parents. Because the one I believe that fruit will not fall far from the tree.

While with brother dzaky, we were also good friends. Although I often keep my distance from him because I don't want to make him more hurt. I see he's now stopped flirting with girls, unlike before. He's getting better now, so hopefully he can get a good girl someday.

***********

The day went by so fast, I felt like I was 16. Right now I'm 16 years old, I'm three months away from high school. I've prepared myself for the exam next month. All the materials and grilles given by my teacher always read over and over again hoping I can memorize it out of my head so that during the exam I can do all the problems without feeling any difficulty.

Reading for too long put me to sleep . The sound of the room door opening made me squirm.

"Happy birthday cyst Happy birthday cyst happy birthday cyst." Looks like my family along with mas reihan and kak dzaky in front of me gave a surprise birthday for me.

"You guys."

"Wake up from that chair and blow out your candle immediately." Kak Yahya's Order.

"Hehehe yes brother, cyst overslept again at the table. Sorry."

"Today I'm sorry, but tomorrow if I get caught learning to fall asleep at the table again you'll be punished."

"Make a wish first de." Said brother clara.

I close my eyes, I pray in my heart. Expect smoothness and ease in achieving goals and happiness for all my loved ones.

"Thank you for always loving me, keeping me a good parent to me, being the big brother I've always been with. I love you guys."

After blowing out the candles we gathered in the living room to enjoy the cake and warm drinks that Clara had prepared while joking, chatting to and fro. At dawn mas reihan and kak dzakypun say goodbye to go home.

"Cis, I brought you a gift" said mas reihan when he was about to go home.

"Wahh, good mas, I like his watch."

"I hope this clock will always remind you of me in every second you pass in this life. I LOVE YOU CYA."

"Thank you for everything, I love you too."
