SPLASH OF HAPPINESS

A Sick Heart

Her night...

Tonight the sky looked cloudy as if it wanted to spill rainwater. Rara just got out of the ATM and took her salary. As it turned out, his salary was not what he expected. He stood limp when he saw the balance in his ATM. It's like the world ends this month. He bowed while holding several pieces of money hundreds of thousands. Only one point four million can he bring home. After a long wait for a month.

Just one four. How'this?

He was confused when he came out of the ATM. He also walked limp to his house. It just so happens that the distance of the ATM and the house is not too far. So Rara can walk to pick it up. Yes, even though he had to walk a kilo meter, Rara felt fine. He wants to save his costs.

The salary Rara gets this month is not much. He only received one point four million. Rara could not do anything when the measure of her sustenance was like that. He can only surrender.

Way by way he went to get to his house. Arriving at home, his older brother was waiting in the living room with his mother. Rara then said her greetings before entering. He smiled to cover up his sadness. However, the news was unwilling to tell his mother. Wishing her mother could understand Rara's current state.

"Mom, this is Rara's salary. Rara only got one point four." Rara recounted sitting near her mother.

His mother scrunched her forehead. "So how many months is this?" ask his mother to drown.

Rara handed over several hundred thousand bills to her mother. "Rara can only give five hundred to eat this month, ma'am. The rest of Rara wants to pay for water and electricity and also Danu's school." Rara explains.

Rara was upset. "Yes, how else. If he had been so loving."

It was not the thanksgiving that Rara heard, even such words. And the disappointed look he saw. The burden of life is getting heavier. He just wanted to expect a word of thanksgiving. It was enough to encourage her work tomorrow. But for the umpteenth time, hope is only hope.

"Shouldn't love him that much! Where is enough money for a month?! Think, dong!" his older brother is back.

Rara took a long breath. "Rara doesn't hold much, sister. The remaining nine hundred were to pay for water electricity and also Danu school. The rest is only about five hundred for working capital next month. Not to mention if asked to pay for lost goods. Rara didn't get much either." Rara explained.

"Search for extra money, dong! Don't eat just sleep eat sleep usually!" Her brother is getting worse.

Rara swallowed her saliva. He was so limp he heard it coming from his brother's mouth. Her own brother does not work. He also hitchhiked to Rara. But Rara felt powerless to go against her brother's words. The tears asked for permission to come out of hiding.

"Rara rest first, ma'am." Rara left with a wounded heart.

His mother could only be quiet. Can't say anything. His sister. "Daddy! Not useful!" Her brother snaps like that.
