The Faithful Heart

Decisions

That morning Hana drove her motorbike to hurry to school. As usual, the road looks crowded and passing a variety of vehicles. Hana was riding a motorbike with a soft hum. His face seemed to glow full of an aura of happiness. His heart was unceasingly grateful for the improved relationship between God and his mother.

"Tin tinnn's...!" Hana honks Yusuf who is riding a mega pro motorcycle at low speed seems not excited.

" Suf, tumben ride the motor slowly. It's like Laura's just like grandma's street." Hana aligned her motorcycle beside Joseph following Joseph's speed.

" Eh loe Han ngagetin only." replied Joseph briefly.

" Loe why? Very tired, sick? Not that spirit."

" No, it's just males."

"Really?" search Hana who was surprised by his best friend because usually Joseph always looks excited.

" Sin...!!!" the sound of a motor horn behind them.

"Oi if you want to talk do not on the streets dong, it is indeed the way grandma loe." shouted a biker who was disturbed by Hana and Yusuf who rode motorcycles in unison.

Hana rolled her eyes feeling careless and uncomfortable.

" Yes patient, if you can not wait to fly sonoh." ketus Hana.

" My husband first, see you at school." Hana increased the speed of her bike leaving Yusuf behind.

After a few minutes, Hana arrived at the gate. He rushed to the parking lot and parked his motorbike. When he was about to leave, there was someone holding his hand from behind.

" Later noon we go to school together, there's something I want to talk about." whispered the man near Hana's ear. After Hana turned her head she was a God. A look of dismay on the face of God.

" What's up? Everything's fine, right?" hana's search was full of curiosity.

" I'm fine, I'm already in class. Let's just say it." The god smiled and hurried away leaving Hana alone.

What's up, huh? The attitude of God is not as usual. His smile also seemed forced. I hope this is just my feeling.

" Good morning Laura." Hana approached Laura who was sitting sweetly on her stool.

" Morning Hana baby.... Yesterday, wherever you go, you don't go. No more news."

" He he sorry, yesterday there was a distant relative who died. My parents went there. Because of my rush until forgetfulness bring a cell phone." obviously Hana lied a little but the cell phone problem is true that yesterday after getting news from the God he and his parents immediately rushed to the place of the God until they forgot to bring the flat-shaped item.

" Innalillahi wainna divine rojiun. I'm sorry about Han."

" Yes Ra. Oh yes Ra, Joseph why? I met on the road just leaving like a very lethargic as usual."

" Cooking anyway? Yesterday was still normal at school. Let's try asking."

" What's up, Ra?" asked Rizal from the back bench.

" There is nothing, this is all Hana Yusuf said today to look lethargic."

" Huum, just look not excited like it usually is. Yesterday I didn't leave, what happened, right?" hana.

" Today in ordinary class, just the night I play games together do not want to. I called and WA was not answered either. He usually likes to play games, doesn't he?" rizal.

" Yes." answered Great Briefly.

" Long live, the talk came." Rizal's eyes looked at Joseph who walked into the classroom door. Suddenly the three people followed the direction of Great's gaze. And it is true that Joseph walked lazily without spirit.

" Morning Guys." Joseph greeted his four friends who were sitting in a group.

" Morning." answered the four compactly without letting go of their gazes.

" What are you guys?" asked Yusuf astonished.

" No, I'm fine."

" Why do you look so limp?" Hannah stood up and let Joseph sit on his stool.

" Yes, yesterday I invited you to play a game also do not want to." Rizal and the Great approached Joseph. Now Yusuf is sitting surrounded by 4 friends as if interrogated by a rare mare.

Joseph took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He looked at his friends' faces one by one with sadness.

" I want to change schools." Yusuf's voice trembled a little. He tried hard to stay strong when saying it.

" What?!" they were all four crowded.

" Loe seriously?" tanya Agung doubted.

" Loe's kidding, right?" Hana stared fixedly at Joseph's bead, hoping that what was said just now was just a joke. But what he found was a sad gaze in which contained seriousness.

" Why?"

" I have to move out of town, live with my Bokap in Jakarta. Yesterday I came and asked me to go home." explained Yusuf as flat as possible so as not to be too emotional.

" Why should I move? Not that you've been living with om and aunt loe here. And here everything's okay, right?" asked Laura who still looked shocked by the words of Joseph.

Joseph lived with Om and his Tantenya. Since the death of his mother 10 years ago, he was forced to settle in this small town because his father was too busy with his business and no one took care of him. Every month his father sent money for the living expenses and education of Joseph. His father focused on work, not even rarely had to go back and forth abroad. And at the end of this his father's business developed very rapidly, thus making himself one of the conglomerates in this country. Although not in the top 10 richest people or the most influential people, wealth and business cannot be underestimated.

And almost a year his father has remarried a beautiful woman. Although he had never met in person, but his mother often contacted him just to ask news. And from the conversation so far, Joseph could conclude that the woman of his father's choice was a woman of good heart.

" How else Ra, I really have to move with my Bokap. Maybe this is the best way for my relationship and my father to come back well. I've lived too long away from my home. It's time I went home. I also want to be able to enjoy life with parents, just like you." Joseph lowered his head. Trying to hide his sad expression.

I don't know who started, Joseph is now in the arms of his four best friends. The atmosphere became haru, they shed tears together. Without them realizing they had become the center of attention of his classmates. How not, the morning has been cuddling crowded plus a roaring event.

" It's been, don't have to melow kayak gini dong. Strange lookin' at friends." Agung unraveled his embrace.

" Do not have to slow down, do not have to see. See who has the most tears? LOE...!!" Hana tried to wipe away the tears that had flowed down her cheeks. Somehow he suddenly remembered the God and his mother. Perhaps the feeling of God is not much different from Joseph.

Together they remove the remaining tears and try to strengthen each other. Although they were sad, they tried to smile. After all, the separation must have felt very sad, let alone their friendship had been so close. They've gone through the joy of grief together. The relationship between the five of them was already like a brother.

" There you take good care of yourself, yes, do not eat late" said Hana still with a sad look.

" Yes, don't worry. Loe all here also take care of yourself. Stay compact lest there is a fight that can destroy this friendship." said Yusuf with a fluffy smile.

They hugged again but there were no more tears.

" If only you didn't have to go Suf. I am comfortable with you. Loe is always there when I need. Loe best understands me with Hana." Laura was still staring at Joseph.

" Ra's dressings are always there when needed." said Rizal.

" Loe that's yeah. Just a broken moment." Hana menonyor jidad Rizal so his head bounced back.

" Aouw, don't fasten my brain while sliding." said Rizal.

" Do you still have a brain?" added Laura.

" Have no idea all this time I can't think."

" Ha ha ha." they laughed together.

This is the kind of moment I will miss. Laughing and joking together. You guys are my best friends.

Joseph looked at the laughing face of his best friend one by one, as if recording it to keep it imprinted in his heart. His gaze stopped on Hana's face long enough, and a seyum appeared on her lips.
