Santri Famiglia's

Sanubari's room lights are still on. However, the boy was already asleep in his bed. Aeneas smiled watching the sleeping Sanubari.

Kelana tells him that Sanubari is afraid to sleep alone in the dark. So, Aeneas left the illumination of Sanubari's room on. Then, he left Sanubari's room. Close the door slowly so as not to disturb the boy who is dreaming.

Aeneas walks to Sanum's room, which is just a few steps from Sanubari's room. He stood in front of Sanum's room door and then knocked on it. It did not take long to wait, soon after Sanum immediately opened the door.

*****

Early in the morning Sanubari was busy in the kitchen. The day before, Sanubari pestered Kelana to teach him how to use all the tools in the kitchen. No matter the adult man was tired of serving the hyperactive boy, the boy still took him around the house and asked questions.

Now the boy waited with a fiery smile a working microwave. He put in a frozen pizza that he had added with a lot of mozzarella. Though there is already cheese in the instant pizza.

His heart was pounding waiting for the process of warming the frozen food. He was like a man in love. All we are waiting for is food. He has been wearing heat-resistant gloves ever since.

Finally the long-awaited ting sound was heard as well. Open the microwave immediately. At that instant, a pleasant aroma came out.

"Hm, good!" Sanubari inhaled deeply the delicious aroma of the warm pizza he had just picked up.

A couple of dipping sauces later, Sanum and Aeneas together head for the kitchen. They were surprised to see the boy who had woken up first. At first Sanum wanted to go down to cook. While Aeneas follows Sanum because he does not want to laze in the room alone. However, the kitchen had already been colonized first by the boy once they arrived.

"What are you doing, Sanu?" asked Sanum who saw the kitchen was a mess.

Sanubari raised his head and said, "Buon giorno, Papa! Good morning, Mama!"

Sanubari had already asked Kelana before so that she could say hello to her father. Sanum and Aeneas return Sanubari's greetings in their respective languages simultaneously. The two of them were standing near the dining table where Sanubari was creating.

"I made breakfast for Papa and Mama."

(I made breakfast for Papa and Mama.)

Sanubari's English was not bad in school. If the basic level of English is only the level of elementary school children, Sanubari can apply it. He had heard of Jin communicating with Aeneas in English. So, Sanubari thought of learning to communicate with his father using his little knowledge of English as he could not yet speak Italian.

Sanubari's ability came as a small surprise to Aeneas. Apparently Sanubari's a pretty smart kid. He smiled and sat down.

"What is this?"

(What is this?)

Aeneas saw three round-shaped foods sitting on the table. All the surfaces of the food are brown. It smells like pizza but there are other smells mixed in.

"Piza with mayonaise, hot sauce, ee .. um. aaa .. nut .. nut .. nut .. nut."

(Pizza with mayonnaise, spicy sauce and ee .. um. aaa ... nut .... nut ... nut ... nut ...)

Sanubari. He said it while thinking. It seems that he was tearing up his brain to find the phrase sambal pecel. He doesn't know his English. After thinking for a while, Sanubari finally unconvincedly said, "nut sambal."

"Nut Sambal?"

Whatever it was, it seemed like Aeneas no longer thought about it. He took a piece of pizza and tried to bite it.

"Tasty."

(Brand.)

Such was Aeneas's comment. He kept eating it. It feels a little different but not too bad. So, he finished the creation of his son.

"Mamak, let's try tasting too!" take Sanubari to her mother who just stands while looking.

Sanum sat down and began to pick up a piece as well. In the middle of the breakfast, Kelana came with four people. Two men and a woman. Kelana introduces them to the Sanubari family.

Argentino, Moreno, Bela and Natasha—the four of them are household assistants who will help Sanum take care of his big house. All four can speak both Italian and Indonesian.

Sanubari offers his pizza sambal pecel to all of them. They all ate together and the four new employees started working. Not much to do on the first day. The women just clean up the mess Sanubari made and start cooking. Sanum helped the waiters cook.

"Young Master, from now on you have to learn to master five languages" Kelana said as she put some books on the table.

"I've mastered Indonesian, Javanese, continue to learn English. There are two more languages." Sanubari counted with his finger.

"Your native language is not counted. Your mandatory languages are English and Italian. The rest are three languages, you're free to choose."

"What's? Why do I have so much to learn?" Sanubari raised his eyebrows.

"You are young. Learning at your age will be easier and will definitely last a long time. Just like when you learn Indonesian. Didn't you once not speak Indonesian but now become fluent from learning it in school? That's language. It would be better if introduced early on. I'm sure you can."

"But five is a buahaaak" Sanubari lamented in a contrived tone.

"Spirit! Love your potential when wasted. Worry not! There is still time to play for you. Monday to Friday we have three hours a day face-to-face. I will give the target of memorization and written tests as well as oral every day. Learning hours will be shorter if you can master the learning material per day more quickly. Want to increase learning hours can also be," explained Kelana then smiled.

"I want to spend some time playing. It's nice for adults. Be smart, do not need to learn, can have a lot of money anyway!" Sanubari pouted out her irish taste.

Kelana laughs. Sanubari is too what it is. The boy had already grown up in a heavy environment. However, the souls of his children were still pure. That's something to be grateful for.

"There is nothing instant in this world. Even a genius if he does not want to learn, he will lose to someone who tries hard and is determined. Adults also need a long process to achieve an achievement. It used to be Mister's father, Mommy Master, I was once a child just like you."

"Oh, Uncle also once felt very eager to learn but then the spirit was lost and lazy to attack?"

"Yes, because the kids still can't balance emotionally. Setting the mood is hard. Even adults have trouble stabilizing it."

"Difficult, huh? But I don't think we'll get bored quickly and feel lazy when work gets money. I want to just work, but I don't have to learn. Why learn? Just chasing grades and diplomas, getting money is not, tired of the mind yes."

"Young Master, life is not about money. You are not short of money at all. You want what? Just ask your papa then he will give it."

"But with money we can live well. Like at the moment. Back when I was the same when I didn't have money, we lived hard. Want to bury hard grandpa, sell broken thugs, oppressed if you can not give money. Eating should be bad." Sanubari poured out his heart. He was down with a sad face.

"Money is only a small part of life. Money can be used to buy many things but it can never bring happiness to you."

Kelana's explanation made Sanubari think why it could be so. The Sanubari know that rich people can buy anything they want, travel anywhere without fear of running out of money. Who is unhappy when they can have fun at will like that. Kelana's description sounds strange to Sanubari.

However, Kelana still painstakingly gave an explanation to the child. Rich people can still be thieves because greed has made them slaves to money. Rich families can be scattered because of the problem of money struggles. Parents can sell children just because they want to enrich themselves.

Many problems arise when humans become slaves to money. There are only three things money cannot buy. Sincerity, tranquility and life.

Having a sincere family will certainly be different from a paid family. Moreover, families often bring up how much money they spend for a member and ask continuously how much money that member has given to the family as a reciprocal. Having such a family is not at all pleasant. Anything is measured by money.

A sincere family with no strings attached is true happiness. If by any chance the sincere family has a lot of money then it is a bonus. Kelana gave the example of the Sanubari family itself as a sincere family.

Sanubari. Aeneas never met Sanubari but his father was willing to spend a lot of money for him. He also did not limit his desire. Sanubari's mother was also always there for her under any circumstances. Sanubari felt more valuable than money. It has a gift that cannot be judged nominally. That is, the whole family is back.

A lot of money can not guarantee a person can live a quiet life. Sometimes a person's life can be threatened just because of money. Not only criminals, families can become enemies in a blanket when money has officially become the master of the heart.

Money also cannot guarantee that a person can live eternally or escape death. Once a life is lost, money can no longer make up for it. No matter how expensive a doctor or scientist is to be paid, the life that has been taken out of the body can never be put back into the body.

"Don't you think adults don't have the burden of mind at all! Everyone has their own burden according to their age. How we handle that burden. People who always think negatively will feel that the burden is heavy and easy to fall. If we think positively, the burden will be light. Humans are destined to continue to hope even though often what we get is not in accordance with what we expect," Kelana said.

Sanubari is just a mangosteen. There was a lot of advice he could take from Kelana. His thoughts gradually began to open up. However, half of Sanubari grew tired of the lecture being too long.

Kelana realized this. If he continues then the next one will only be considered a radio broadcast passing by the boy. He also took the initiative to cut his explanation.

"Okay, this is the last one."

"Has the study hours been reduced?" asked Sanubari suddenly enthusiastic again.

"Three hours was already a shorter time than ordinary school. On Saturdays and Sundays you are also off. It only lasted for six months. After that, I'll find Tutors of other subjects for you and your study time will increase. I'll give you a week to think about what language you want to learn. All the materials that I master, I myself will teach you. However, if it's beyond my ability then I'll find another teacher."
