SEVENTEEN LINE
Birthday Party-3
Aini
Am I wrong? Was I wrong to let my little friend experience grief on my own? Am I a bad friend? But I can't force Aldo to tell me about his birthday either. I know that Aldo is alone in his house right now. I know exactly the difference in Papa Aldo's attitude after the accident experienced by Aunt Rita Mama Aldo. I know Papa Aldo must have been devastated. But isn't Aldo hit too? Papa Aldo should pay more attention to Aldo. It is not even busy to be able to forget the accident.
I know exactly the friendship between Aunt Rita and Mommy. They even agreed to make their child's birth date the same and in the same hospital. That's why I was also close friends with Aldo, what else was Aldo's house not so far from my home. Aldo used to live in the same compound as me. If only Aldo had not moved at that time, maybe now I would have accompanied him at his home. I want to share my story with him too. I also wanted to tell him about the letter. But it seems like I have to wait until the time is right for me to tell her a lot.
“Aini? How come you haven't slept?”, suddenly Radit's brother appears from behind my bedroom door.
“Kak Radit himself why haven't you slept? Not that Radit's brother tomorrow morning has returned to Semarang?”
“Ih, even back your lot. Brother wants something similar you”
“What's a sister?”
“Hm, since I don't see Aldo, don't you see him? Or Aldo also again celebrate his birthday as well as you?”
“Kak... brother ever heard of brother Diaz gak?”
“No, since the end of High School my sister never had any contact with him again. But what you know is he went to college in Jogja right?”
“Yes, brother Diaz studied in Jogja. Since Diaz attended college in Jogja Aldo alone mulu muh at home, even sometimes Aini contact Aldo so he is not lonely. So Aini invited him over, but he didn't feel well. So he did not come, brother, and Aini also sure if Aldo must be alone again, abis on his birthday Papa and his brother is not home. Even Aldo said they also do not have the same words Aldo kak”
“Yeah, what a pity that kid. Hm, sister also want to nanyak another nih”, Nada talk brother Radit like teasing.
“What else sis?”, I said judes.
“You... Ummm... You've been dating Aldo?”
It's true, Radit's brother started again I like that. Ihh... You're Radit!!!
“Ha! What brother? Ih kok brother even that much sis?”, I reply with a manyun on my face.
“Abis from the event started earlier brother I can guess surely you again nyariin Aldo. Yes, brother guess right...”, Brother Radit's words were cut, well I can guess the temptation of Radit's brother.
“Not really big brother. We just sahabatan loh kak”. “udah ahh, Aini want to sleep brother. Sister out gih”.
I'd rather hasten this conversation than have to listen to Radit's constant temptation.
“Iya deh yes. Huuhh even though big brother misses you”, Brother Radit pinched my cheek with anxiety.
“Ihh sicktt tauuu kak!”
Brother Radit just smiled and went out of my room.
