SHAUQ
Grizzled



The rainbow had already disappeared in the sky of Sham, turning into a gray that was so gloomy. Not wanting to eat, drink or even talk. His life is now silent and confined to the room. Parents do not know what really happened to this child. His body was indeed on his bed, but it was as if his mind and mind were flying in search of freedom. Where'd he go? Where should he look?


Empty looks were seen in both beautiful eyes that were so sad, lips that always bristled like a rose, have now withered, paled even his body was drying up due to lack of food intake. Angered by his son's behavior so weak, Aris went to his son's room while carrying various types of food and drinks.


“Technique! Spend immediately!”


Silence, no reply, no movement at all.


“Not like that,” said a woman who was so graceful. “What has happened to you, my son?” asked the woman while embracing the little young man in her arms.


“Uqzy, Umi, I want to meet him,” muttered the young man still with a blank look.


“Are you crazy, Syam? Yeah, looks like you're really crazy. I should not have kept this crazy boy,” furious Aris and left the Sham room along with a loud noise that was slamming the wooden door.


“Do you love her so much, Syam.”


“Very, Umi.”


“How about it?”


“Same. We always spend time home from school to play.”


“Is that why you always come home late?”


The young man nodded with a shy smile. For some reason if he discussed about the girl, the flower garden bloomed again in the little boy's body so beautifully. After all, he was already dissolved in loving the girl of his dreams.


“What are you doing?”


With enthusiasm and enthusiasm, Syam also told his mother everything from the first meeting to promising to always meet every day.


“We make poems together, learn to do tasks together, not only beautiful, she


“Syam likes to play? What if starting the day, Umi who will always accompany Syam play. Whenever and wherever.”


“Not umi, Syam only wants Uqzy.”


“Syam, you are still too small. Not yet able to understand what love, love, affection and friendship are. Maybe now your friendship is stretched,-“ the greeting is immediately cut off by Sham.


“No! We are not friends! We are lovers. A PAIR OF LOVERS, UMI,” firmly Syam who instantly made his mother wide. How a child speaks like an adult. Even this is braver than people. Truly, his son was a brave man who held fast to his stand.


“If so, can someone help?”


“True umi?”


“Ya, with one condition. That should obey mom.”


“Really? Fine Umi.”


“Now eat.”


“Do not ask for the impossible, umi. The appetite in me has disappeared.”


“Are you not ashamed, Sham? If you were to meet your lover under such circumstances? What if he leaves you?”


“Do not use that word umi! He won't leave me. And, all right, I'll eat it. But it's not because I'm afraid of losing him or that he's leaving me. I believe so much in our love. I obey umi's orders and please don't always have bad thoughts towards her, umi.”


DEGGG


Truly, his son had been deceived by a little girl he had never met. How annoying the girl was, that her son was so weak and strong at the same time. For now, seeing the appetite of Sham back again, has made the heart of the mother of Sham back. A beautiful smile was etched there.
