SUN FLOWERS

TIARA

The sun shines brightly in the morning, the clouds hanging like cutton candy reflect the pink and golden light of the king of the afternoon. Lantana walked vigorously down the stairs towards the dining room where her father sat enjoying tea and newspaper in his hands.

"Gini's day still reading the newspaper." said Ana

"Gee.. Father's daughter is awake.." Dad folded up and put his newspaper on the edge of the dining table "Where's his sleep? Wakeless?" tannya

"Hm? It's good." Ana replied after gulping down the milk she just poured.

"It's gonna be good, Dad.. Kan who boboin the king" said Mother from the kitchen

"What the hell is bun?" Lantana is confused by her mother's behavior

"Was.. Pretending not to remember, right? Be present.. When do you really have a husband, let it work with your husband.." judes mother

"Mother why, Dad? It's not a crime.." Lantana was getting upset that her mother had already started a fight with her. Dad just shrugged his shoulders while putting the fried banana he just put on the table into his mouth.

"Who would want to be the same spoiled girl as a gini? Even last night men would rather introduce themselves as bosses than as girlfriends.. She doesn't want to date you?" typical babble of mothers in the morning

"Dad.. Kuaci Ana out,, we go to super market yu.. It's sunday, all walks.." Take Lantana to her father after checking the quaci on the shelf without caring about the babble of the bunch.

"Relope.. What the hell's wrong with daddy's daughter." I agree

"Et.. Mother again said nothing horrified.." Mother began to rise the tension of "ampunn wrestling!! Is this karma from You because when pregnant I accidentally killed hemster?? So you give a kid who's like a hemster likes to eat kuwaci.." complained Mother. He smiled at his wife's behavior

Mother is actually a spoiled woman, because she is the only daughter in her family. He was always spoiled by his parents and brothers. After her marriage, she was treated with more pampering by her husband. But after Lantana was born, her husband became more affectionate with Lantana and rarely spoiled her. That's just my feelings. That causes the mother always ketus and cynical on Lantana. Moreover, Lantana was always defended by her father and always sorted what she wanted.

"How about a walk to a downtown amusement park? Three.." take Dad

"But home buy kuwaci ya yah.." Pinta Lantana

"Nothing..!! You have to do housework.. Your clothes are stacked in the laundry!! You can't eat kuwaci anymore either.. If you buy your mother throw it away!!" mother angry.

"Mother why the hell? How do you hate Ana? Ana's wrong what the hell is mom? Every day, I wash my clothes, too.. Who every day mengepel home also Ana.. Dong Ana wants to go for a walk.. Can't time??" Lantana Whine

"You dare ya ninggiin voice in front of the mother!!? You are a child who does not know how to profit.. Dare to argue his own mother.. The promise is not because.. Lazy-man! The angry!! And.--"

"Yes!! Ana is not a good boy..!" Lantana cut off the word of her mother. He stood up from his seat and ran towards his room. Then he locked the door of his room tightly.

"That right!?? The parents have not done talking about it in the snaps.. You bad boy..!!" mother is still angry

"Mother, honey.. Stop that.." Father calms the mother who has boarded the apitam. I know why his wife is angry. She was jealous because her husband always spoiled her daughter. "She's our only daughter... Don't be that dear, pity him. We go together huh.. Went where? To the amusement park? The waterpark? A zoo? Or what beach?" take dad

"To the beach.. We haven't been to the beach for a long time." Mother turned crisp with father's persuasion

"okay.. We go to the beach, let's take Ana first if that's it.." Dad was just about to climb the stairs, Lantana ran down with the clothes already neat. "Son, where are you going?? Daddy and Mommy are going to the beach, you have breakfast baby!!"

Lantana kept running and put her shoes on the front shelf of the door. Coinciding with that, the motorcycle taxi that used to pick up the housing residents after being on the phone, was waiting in front of the house. Lantana rushed out, but soon returned to kiss the hands of her father and mother after which she went with the taxi driver.

"Where are you going? Duuh.. Why anyway? Two women you love can't live in peace?" dad was frustrated because his son left without saying where he was going.

Mother put on a sad face for fear of being blamed. Dad immediately felt bad, he immediately persuaded mother again. "OK, okay.. Mother dear get ready.. We're going to the beach now.."

Mother immediately sumringah and kissed the cheek of the father, after that rushed to prepare the items to be brought to the beach. Dad just shook his head.

***

Lantana walked down a cobbled street in one of the city's parks. He repeatedly kissed the flowers around him and sometimes photographed them to get rid of the irritation in his heart. He continued to go around enjoying the hot air that was buffeted by the cold wind caressing his soft cheeks. Lantana sat on one of the chairs under a very shady tree. Rarely do people come here, because the position is far from a beautiful place. Lantana sat down and cried. He did not know the reason why his mother hated him so much.

After being satisfied with crying, Lantana took her feet out of the park and headed to the mall which was not far from the park. He bought ready-to-eat sunflower seeds in several flavors. After being satisfied he went home using public transportation.

Once at home, Lantana settles like a thief who wants to steal the contents of the house. The house was empty, the car was not in the garage. Lantana ran towards her room and rearranged her room. Empty some shelves and put the cubicles he bought into the drawer. After that she changed into more casual clothes, washing clothes while mopping the floor.. Yep.. Because he washed it in the washing machine, so don't wait, right?

The sun is moving west. The cold summer breeze wiggled the leaves of the lantana sunflowers in the courtyard. Lantana cleared her garden after drying her clothes. Some neighbors greeted him and greeted him back. I don't feel like the day keeps going into the evening. Suddenly a red sports car stopped in the yard of Lantana's house. Lantana stood looking at the car, in the typical style of a gardener with garden gloves attached to her hands and the ground adorning her face.

Vino got out of the car and approached Lantana who was still dumbfounded. "Why is that so??" heed

Lantana blinked her eyes and realized from the daydream. "Kok sir is here?" ask Lantana plain

"I have legs, free dong I go anywhere.. Dad any??" he said again

"Father same mother again to the beach.. Sir there needs to be a father?" lantana took off her gloves and washed her hands in a tap near the yard.

"Yes, I needed to be with you." replied Vino

"Need what? Let me tell you" Lantana bargained

"I need to be with my father, I want to ask permission to take his daughter for a walk." explained Vino

"Oh.. Is that..? I'll call dad in a minute.. Sir sit down, can I get you a drink?" lantana's next bargain

"I'll just sit here, you'll have permission from me." Vino ordered

"Okay.." Lantana walks into the house and picks up her phone that she put on the living room table. He's out soon. "What did you want to do?? Permission? Permission to take his daughter out for a walk? My dong?" Lantana panicked

"You're a long-standing connection.." Vino got up from his seat and pinched Lantana's cheek. "Who wants to go for a walk? There's permission for me.."

"Ih.. How impromptu..? I haven't had a shower, haven't ironed yet.."

"Sheath..! So the road isn't? I don't have to shower don't change clothes, gini is also beautiful.." Vino judged Lantana from top to bottom. Typical of spoiled home girls. Hot pant, flip-flops, pinched pigtails, and oversize t-shirts.

"Jude wait a minute, I'm gonna take a shower first.." Lantana Ngiprit ran to her room.

Ten minutes later he was down again. With neat clothes. Blouse peach, jeans that fit on his tiny legs, a small sling bag of watches and braids hair form a bando.

"That's a big shot?" Vino was shocked by Lantana's truly fleeting appearance

"And I said for a second." Lantana put the shoes on the shoe rack in front of the door

"Yes.. Usually, the girl for a while is about 30 minutes.. You didn't shower?"

"Oh.. Good though.. Yuk ready?" take Vino

"Short of a second, I want to open the door first.."

After Lantana locked the door, they left with Vino's car out of the compound.

"Master, can't you take me for a walk?" ask Lantana doubtfully

"Master!! I said what if we were just the two of us?" vin protest

"Oh yes I forgot.. So I have to repeat the question again dong?" lantana Reply

"Don't do.. Why would I take you away?" Vino asked back

"Yes.. You're afraid your boyfriend is angry.."

"Aren't afraid.." Vino smiled "my girlfriend's man took the road" he continued

"Where?" lantana immediately nodded

"More.. You should look here.." Vino shows a mirror hanging on top of the car

"Ih.. Apaan.. That's my face.." Lantana's upset

"Is that right?" Vino laughed at the silliness of Lantana who was not yet conscious

"I mean..?" Lantana still had a face that did not understand

"You're my girlfriend.." Vino can't stand it, so he ruffled his head over the lantana

"iihi.. What the hell? Play claims claims people only.." Lantana pouted while trying to release Vino's hand on her head. "What if I don't agree?"

"You have to agree, you can't.. It's an order" said Vino

"Ih.. I can't make dong.."

"No matter, you have to be my girlfriend.." Vino grabbed Lantana's hand and led her to the tip of her lips to be let out.

"Kok maksa? Gini really shot him." said Lantana with a view following the direction of his hand. "iihi.. Play a kiss.. It's not polite to know.." Lantana tries to let go of her hand but Vino tightens her grip.

"Well, you want a romantic?? Lantana, father's daughter, will you be my girlfriend?" Vino looked at Lantana. The car is currently stopped due to a red traffic light.

"Apaan.. Don't dong that.. Not funny to know.." Lantana turned her face away. He was sure that this time his face was like that of a boy.

"I'm serious.." convinced Vino

"Pure driving is true.." Lantana pulled her hand

The car they were riding in was darted back after the green light. The twilight sun dyed the sky at the western end. Vino takes Lantana to a recreational park in the city. Lantana looks happy watching the sunset over here. Her tiny face expands to form a smile with a lollypop in her hands. Vino sat not far behind him, watching the girl who was engrossed in a self-service.

'Am I ready to open my heart to another woman??' inner Vino on himself. 'Am I ready to get hurt again? But, this girl couldn't possibly hurt me right? He looks very spoiled and fragile. But he also looks independent, does not like to trouble others. A good girl.. But why was the mother last night so snug? Is she his stepmother huh..?'

"Hayoo's... Wagging what the hell? Seriously amicably??" suddenly Lantana was already standing before Vino. Vino nodded in shock. But soon he had put his cool look back on. "Think what? His eyes are already sinking.. Go home yuk.." take Lantana

Vino stood up and held Lantana's hand and took her to one of the fancy restaurants nearby.

"Cock it here?" ask Lantana plain

"And we're going to dinner.. I forgot that you hadn't eaten in the afternoon." said Vino after remembering Lantana's babble before he took her away

"Oh." answered Lantana briefly

Before long the waiter came to bring a menu book. Vino ordered some food as well as Lantana. After recording their orders, the waitress left them again.

"Aren't you permission of your father?" jonathan started the conversation. Lantana. "Why?"

"Actually, this morning I ran away from home.. I left without saying where I was going.. When I came home, my father was not home.. So all right? No permission." replied Lantana while looking down and playing nails on her fingers

"why did you run away? Any issues?" there was an anxious tone to Vino's question

"I fight again with mother." replied Lantana glazed over

Vino moved his seat, now he is sitting near Lantana. "Cup cup.. Why quarrel? You're a mother and son?" Vino gently stroked Lantana's head

"Either.. From the beginning, I didn't like Ana. He's always angry.. Especially if Ana is asking to be hugged by dad.. Or Ana is asking to be stopped by the streets of the same father, mother must be angry with Ana.." Lantana began to shed her tears.

Vino felt sorry for Lantana's condition. "Is she your stepmother?" ask Vino carefully

"No, mother is Ana's biological mother.. At least that's what everyone says." replied Lantana.

Vino grabbed the tissue on the table and rubbed Lantana's tears flowing down her cheeks. "Then, why are you always angry? You're naughty, aren't you??" vino Goda

"No...!! Ana's a good boy.. Ana always does homework. Ana always clean the house, nyci clothes, clean the garden, wash the father's car, throw garbage, ironing, and others.. Ana always obeys the same orders of father and mother.." protested Lantana with a spoiled tone "but, mother always scolded Ana.." he continued with a more lethargic tone

"You do all that? With your own hands?" Vino could hardly believe what he was hearing.

Lantana nodded again. "Ana wants to do whatever you want as long as you change well with Ana.. But my mother is always angry.. So Ana works, because if at home, must fight with mother." replied Lantana

The pramusaji came with their orders. Lantana hurriedly wiped her tears and got up from sitting down. He went to the bathroom to wash his face

"i went to the toilet first huh.." without waiting for Vino's approval, Lantana escaped from before him. Vino stared at Lantana's departure until her figure was lost behind the wall.

"Look!! Who do we find here..?!" a western man of Vino's age stood in front of him greeting in English.
