SECOND FATHER

Eps 7's

The night helped me sit under a guava tree using a plastic chair that I deliberately dragged from the terrace of the house with one hand carrying a cellphone and then sliding the monitor screen with lips occasionally on one another see some jokes.

I accidentally found Bayu's name through the social media homepage that I played, half-brother of Dad's marriage to his new wife. I smiled at the photo showing how he was embracing my shoulder at the time, ah it feels like I miss that child too .

Yes he is seventeen years old, we are good friends like a brother and sister should be. I wonder why we got that close and why can't I be friends with my second father?.

My breath is quite long, breathing a lot of air and .

Uuhhuukkk uuhhhuukkk!

I coughed long enough when suddenly the flower powder from the guava tree was blown in the wind and accidentally got sucked into my nose.

Uuhhuukkk

" aahhh, what a shit your life Angel ! Uuhhuukk!''.

My bait without being able to stop the influence also itching that attacks my nose to my ears, yes coughing long enough is not comfortable.

'' Angel? why you?"

Ask the man who just came by his motorcycle.

" Choke on the guava flowers!"

I said it then went as fast as lightning to find something that could ease the itching in my throat.

I don't comment anymore and then come in even though it's different lane , I came back after two glasses of water flushed my throat relieving the tickling sensation and now my eyes are releasing clear liquid until the liquid snot comes flowing from my nostrils .

" Angel?".

Now my mother's voice sounded worried, as if asking what was wrong with me.

" yes, ma'am ?".

" Angel just choked on Mom so don't worry!"

" Have you completed your task?"

Said mom as she walked into the living room.

" It's over but partly."

I answered honestly, completing schoolwork is not as easy as washing a fatty dish that is enough to use soap and running water can make it clean .

" Why are you sitting there ? let's finish your pr first later you can continue the event sitting under the guava again.

" Angel tired Ma'am, tomorrow will be a holiday give time to Angel relax Angel tired of school affairs."

I complained and left before my mother answered my protest.

I thought that my mother deliberately locked me up with a pile of textbooks without giving me time to calm the nerves that were always tense thinking about numbers and other materials.

Mother's attention is less and the mother's ban is more and more, without mother realizing I also need an event called a vacation.

Yes thinking about the holidays I intend to go visit Dad who is located quite far from my house, and with whom will I go ? let me think while I fall asleep !.

kriikk kriikk kriikk

Crickets crunching together fill the void of nature with the darkness of the night, becoming a melodious song after almost seven years of no sleep-sending fairy tales .

I close my eyes immediately tomorrow I can wake up and do the activities that are already in my head.

Before that I sent a message to one of the contacts for the morning route and maybe he too will be the ojek for my trip .

Yes I pray that there are no guests in this house so that I can leave without a complicated excuse.

Good night, may the good dream be upon you .
