Playground

A few years later.

Everything that happened in my life made me feel like a new person. I am cheerful, like a smile now replaced with me who is jutek, rarely smile and closed. Circumstances change everything.

Even kak citra was forced to harbour her desire to go to college for the sake of my education because kak clara could not afford to finance us both at once. So after high school, Kak Citra worked as a babysister in a very rich family in Bandung, not far from the house of Clara.

From then on I was only home with herman, even at night while during the day I was alone. Moreover, om herman is building his own house not far from this house, he wants to prepare his future well so that after marriage later he already has a house. So sweet, I want to have a husband like me, heheheh.

Now I am preparing for the exam, yes soon I will graduate from Junior High. Time passes quickly, right?

Tok tok tok.

"Cis, open the door with a guest."

"Yes, a little while."

I opened the door and saw someone who had been leaving me for years. He forgot that he had children and brothers here. The woman I hated was next to him.

"Who's cis?"

I quietly did not answer the screams of herman from the kitchen who was busy cooking with my prospective aunt named Tyara.

"Mas han."

"Yes de mas go home."

I ran to my room, locked myself in my room. I didn't want to see them, but why did you bring the woman to live in this house. I hate him more and more.

"Cista, open son. I'm sorry."

"Give time for him mas, after all that happened it must be difficult to forgive everything mas, let alone he was still very small at that time. I hate you so much now, but you are still my brother. So I will learn to forgive you but not for this woman. Until whenever this family won't accept him mas. "

"Sayank open it, it's auntie."

I opened the door, let auntie come in. He hugged me giving me the calm I needed. She will definitely be a good mother if you have children later, omku very lucky to find a woman as good as auntya.

"Darling, don't mind much, the day after tomorrow you have to test right. Your job is to learn, not to think about anything else. If you haven't forgiven your father then don't push yourself slowly, okay. "

"Yes aunty. Thank you." Thank you."

"Sama-sama dear, then aunty go home first huh. Don't forget to eat dinner tonight."

I just nodded my head. I grabbed a towel and I took my foot to the bathroom in my bedroom. After taking a shower I ate, it looked lonely maybe om herman has not come home after dropping off auntie. No matter what, I ate quietly before returning to my room to study. I should not be bothered by the presence of the father and the woman, should focus the test. Passed with satisfactory grades, amen.

*****

Graduation day arrived, thank God I got a satisfactory grade. Being ranked second in the province and ranking first in the County was a bonus because what mattered was my satisfactory grade. I can be accepted into the school I want.

I have decided to continue my education in Bandung, join kak clara to be away from the woman named mira. I started to prepare all the necessary files.

To be honest I've started forgiving you, it's just that she made me shut myself away from you. Either maybe this is just my feeling, if soon I will know aunt mira is not as good as I think. Because I eavesdropped on the phone a few days ago.

Flashbacks

"Yes, I approached the handoyo because I wanted the vast land, pretty much it could be sold for fun. I'm trying to find her certificate, she's very good at hiding her certificates."

That's what I heard when I just got home from school to take care of the papers I need as a condition for applying to high school later. At that time I immediately hid all the certificates that my family had in a suitcase that I would bring to Bandung without anyone's knowledge.

Apparently my concern all this time was true, aunt mira just wanted something from dad. I'm sure soon Dad will know the bad, I'm sure he'll soon disappear from our lives. I hope that my hope will soon be realized, Amen.
