Midway I'm on a Reno phone. After I picked up I told Eti to say goodbye.
"Ti, I go home first y. A Reno tell me to go home soon."
"OKs. TTDJ yes."
"Yoi. Tell noh Ama she doesn't keep on mojok. Mami nyari."
That is how close we are. We always call our parents to follow their children. To be more familiar.
*****
Arriving at home.
"Assalamualaikum.." I said as I entered and searched for my parents. Slender.
I searched every corner of the house but there was no one I met.
While waiting for the house, I also changed clothes and carried out my duties as a Muslim.
30 Minutes passed and finally the person I was waiting for came too.
"A, where are you from?" my many.
" Am Sil, are you home?" ask a Reno.
I glanced at a Reno for a moment before asking, aa already continued the words. "Ade in the hospital, mimih amah again there. This is just coming home. You cook it."
" Cash loba teing to teu kadahar. Gera the Hasan is retarding." continued a Reno.
(don't eat too much. Hurry Hasan Bentar back home)
" Muhun a."
Sisil went to the kitchen. Looking for what to cook. Usually, parents always have cooking ingredients that are purchased in the morning.
" Alhamdulillah, still aya bayem and tempe. Suffices. Nasi na is still his henteu aya. The hela temple."
It's mundane. From the age of 12 years Sisil has been able to do housework if his mother can not cook he is always the one who replaces his duties.
Independence is fostered from small and the circumstances that require Sisil not to feel a burden in carrying out his duties.
There are no exceptions. Even for punishment if the mother makes a mistake will never distinguish it.
This was what made Sisil a powerful person.
30 Minutes in the kitchen, all the meals that Sisil made were on the dining table. And so did the sister who just got home from school.
"Nembe uih, San? Kamana hela tos?" my many.
(Just come home, San? Where once?
"Muhun tea. Mimih kamana's? Usual ulin hela". replied Hasan.
(Yes tea. Mimih where? used to play first)
Just a breath I can do. It's common with my sister's attitude on this one.
" Where to shower and change clothes. Tomorrow I will wear my uniform. Mimih jeung abah aya in the hospital.
" Saha nu geuring?" Hasan asked so loudly.
(Who is sick)
" the Faith".
" Ooh, kunaon?" hasan.
"Isa. Gera bathe, pray, keep tah dahar. keep kitu anterkeun ieu mam ka a Reno in the rice field. Ngalayab teuing.
(Isa. Quickly shower, pray, continue to eat. continue again interjan this food to a Reno in the rice field. Don't keep going)
"Him.." Briefly hasan.
This is the day of this little family. Always colourful. Sometimes fights become a place to show affection for each other. It does not mean that we hate each other.
At a very early age. Sisil was forced into adulthood. Coveted his two younger brothers. Taking care of home. Even working all the time he does.
Adolescence that should be filled with interesting activities. He can't feel. Learning, working is his day.
