THE CLOSED SIDE
NEW HOPE
After dropping off his two younger siblings school, Rara now rides public transport to the Asih bu stall, according to the agreement yesterday Asih ma'am will introduce Rara to someone who will help her get a job.
"Stop sir" . Said Rara to the public transport driver.
"this is the money" . Continue Rara while giving money 10,000
"this is the change". Said the angkot driver while giving money 5,000 rupiah to Rara
"well thank you sir". Rara said
"same - same neng". Say the transport driver.
After getting off the public transport Rara immediately rushed to walk excitedly towards the Asih bu stall. After walking approximately 1KM finally Rara arrived at a one-to-one shop in the industrial environment.
Yes, the distance of the stall with the highway is quite far, actually there is a taxi driver but Rara is not possible to ride ojeg Money he has lived 5000 was just enough for the cost of going home.
In the shop there was a woman who was sitting pensively, after yesterday's incident met and chatted with Bu Asih recalled to her daughter who had now left her alone. His daughter's name is Sinta, he died because of a single accident at that time Sinta was riding his motorcycle at high speed because he hunted when going to follow SMBPTN but was ill-fated in the middle of the journey of motorcycle tires he rode exploded until the he was thrown a few meters down the road made him hit and fateful blood vessels broke due to the impact made him breathe his last at the scene, there were no tears Asih mom came back dripping because she remembered the shadow of her daughter back.
"Assalamualaikum". said Rara with enthusiasm, making the woman who had been entertaining immediately became shocked.
"wa'alaikumsalam, uh Rara's son has come". Replied Asih as she moved her hand to wipe away the tears on her cheek so as not to be seen by others, she did not want to show her sorrow to anyone.
Rara who saw it felt something strange on the Asih foam as soon as she asked.
"mom why ? is there anything that hurts mom so she cries ?". Ask Rara worried.
"eeemm. ti. ti. no son, I'm just a flick". Answer the nervous Asih
"if you have a problem Rara who listens to the mother's curses, just like yesterday's mother who listened to Rara's complaints". Said Rara while stroking the back of Asih foam.
Rara who keeps asking questions, starts to think life is full of mystery and everyone is given a test just that the level of the test is different, Rara can only take a deep breath and then slur it, and everyone is given a test, while on the other hand bu Asih is still silent.
"mother, do you need anything, do you want Rara to get you a drink" . Rara asked softly
"please get me a drink, son". Say bu Asih Lirih. Rara quickly took a bottle of mineral water and poured it into Asih foam, and was greeted by Asi maam then drank it.
After Asih's mother was a little quiet, she looked at Rara with a longing gaze like a mother who missed her daughter, yes right now Asih's mom really misses her only daughter.
"surely ma'am I'm ready to listen to your complaint". Rara nan replied giving a gentle look to the woman before her.
Without a stale foam Asih immediately overflowed his heart, how she felt when she left her husband with the condition he was pregnant with her child, her husband died when the age of the womb bu asih stepped 7 months, as he struggled to make a living to raise his son, that under the blazing sun his only puppets should he take around the industrial environment to peddle his wares until he had his own stall in the neighborhood, he said, however ill-fated bad luck befalls his daughter and must swallow the harsh reality when he has to shout out the fact that his daughter has left him for so long.
Rara who had listened to every word that came out of the woman's mouth was claustrophobic how not the woman shrewdness of her son and husband, and Rara lost both her parents, and her husband, indeed, until now both parents are still alive but they are busy with their respective lives, until Rara and her two younger siblings no longer feel the parental affection of protection from the father figure he never felt, since his parents separated, since his parents separated, did not feel the tears of Rara sekang had fallen habit of his cheeks that always show dimples when he smiled.
"mom can hold you". Rara asked without answering the woman she was facing had now hugged the girl both hugged each other and felt comfort.
" *Can I consider you my own daughter?" . asked the woman with a hopeful look.
" it's with pleasure that you can think of me as your own daughter, I'm looking forward to missing the mother figure in my life mom".Rara replied as she pulled her lips to show a smile on her face*.
With the feeling of the day they again embrace each other and express their feelings in that embrace. As if a new life was memorizing the two of them, a new spirit of strength made the two smile widely.
Without them noticing from earlier there was a handsome male figure watching the two of them, with such a gentle gaze, and such a sweet smile that he painted on his handsome face.
The man is Arfan, an employee at the company that has 3000 branches spread in the country they currently occupy, in the company that Arfan occupies a fairly high position, he said, he is an HRD so he has the ease to petrify people who need a job.
Bu Asih knows Arfan well, because Arga is a man who has always been the protector of his only daughter, Arfan and Sinta are friends since childhood when they were in adulthood they were in a relationship as lovers, and they were in love with each other, their relationship went well because they had the support of their parents. Dear dream to marry Sinta must be buried with her lover who has left her for a long time.
instantly the arms of the two were released when they heard the voice of a man who had been in front of them before you were not realized by the two.
"Assynoga". Arfan said with a smile.
"Mirhaka" . Say both together.
"Sorry ma'am if my arrival annoys you both". Said Arfan as he approached and got to the right hand of Asih and then smeared the back of the woman's hand.
"No son, you don't hook, it's your mother who's been interfering with your time". Asih bu
"Mom don't talk like that, I'm your son Mom, you've been considered like my own mother". Arfa.
Yes, although Arfan and Sinta had to separate because of the death that separated them both, but Arfan still often visited Asih's mother, because he had promised to take care and protect the beloved mother he loved so much.
