Indira, Malik and Akbar walk down the street
on the way to Malik's house. Silence was still created between them. Already
there is no energy left. Too many tears are wasted
make their energy drained.
Their only desire is to go home..
Go home to a small house that was always filled with laughter and happiness.
Malik's House.
The three of them stopped and stood in the courtyard
homehouse. From the inside there are many mourners who are still crying over the departure of Ms. Ma
Sri lank. Their feet were heavy to step inside. Fear of tears
who fell again.
Seeing his children have arrived, Bu Mega who
still busy meeting the mourners inside the house immediately stood up and
approaching them.
“Nak, there are still many people here. Let's mama, papa
same papi you guys who met them. You go home and rest at mom's house
yep. Mama's gonna ask someone to make anterin eat you.” Bu Mega holding
malik's shoulder, understood how heavy the burden he was carrying was.
Akbar nodded his head and guided the others
in order to immediately return to the house of Indira, which is only 5 houses away from there.
When it began to step, the voice of Bu Mega again sounded and made Akbar
put his hand on Malik's shoulder. Turn around to Bu Mega
“Acbar..”
“Iya mah.”
“Mama titip Malik with Indira yes son. Here you are
the biggest, you take care of them. Mama knows you must be sad too, but
I hope you can cheer up Malik and Indi. Don't forget to eat
dear”
Bu Mega rubbed Akbar's cheek gently. Lay down
hope that Akbar can entertain his friends. After nodding
chief, Akbar passed by leaving Bu Mega and went back to his best friend.
They walked towards Indira's house with
limp as if there was no buffer in his body. Arriving at the door,
Indira turned her head to Akbar. Pointing the flower pot that is next to
door with his head.
Akbar walked closer to the flower pot, as if
understand the meaning of Indi sign language. He felt the inside of the flower pot, and
stand up after getting what he's looking for. Akbar opened the door
using the key obtained from the flower pot.
The three of them walked towards the living room
use the remaining energy. Malik immediately broke his body
above sofa. Indira chose to enter the room and replace the
his clothes.
Not long ago, there was a sound from the front door
homehouse. Akbarpun immediately stood up to the source of the voice.
“Jang, this is your lunch. Bu Mega asked
please help me get him here. There are still many people in Malik's house, if necessary
call mamang yes.”
It turns out that the one who came was Malik's neighbor
bring 3 pieces of rice box Bu Mega. Akbar thanked the people who had brought them lunch. He also advised that Bu Mega not to worry about his condition and his sahabbat.after his guests left, Akbar immediately brought in and
put the lunch box in front of Malik.
“Lik, eat first. From yesterday we did not exist
the eat”
Akbar painstakingly prepared lunch for
his pals. He only prepared for Malik and Indira, but himself there was no intention to touch the food.
Seeing that his friend had no taste for food, Indira
just came out of the room directly sitting next to Malik. He raised his head
Malik and put it on his lap.
Without further ado Indira took the rice box
it's in front of Akbar.
“You want to eat for yourself what I bribe” Indira
started to spoon the rice into Malik's mouth which was still closed in his lap.
Malik just shook his head slowly
“You think, if you don't eat Ibuk
losing it?? No lik. I'm just as sad Akbar is too. But you don't
gini rich. You have to eat, if you get sick who wants to
ngurusin huh?”
Heard Indira's voice in a slight tone
upset, Malik starts to wake up and tries to sit down. He looked at Indira and
Akbar alternated.
“Sorry yes” Malik's voice starts to sound.
“aaaa. Open your mouth cepet” Indira spooning
a full mouthful of Malik, and Malik obeyed what Indira said. Saw
Malik had already started eating, Akbarpun immediately took another rice box and started
the meal. While Indira ate with the same spoon as Malik.
“You two should eat a lot. If it doesn't
eat, get energy from nowhere. We have to keep strong dong. Gini rich
continue, pity mom papa sama papi. They must be sad to see us sad. Motherfuck
also love it when we like this.”
Akbar Manggut-mangut hear the ravings of Indira.
Malik's mouth was still full of smiling food.
“You if you are rich mothers who are angry again
his son Ndi” Finally Malik let out his voice and looked at Indira with
muddied. It seemed like Indira's nagging managed to make her slightly rise up from
his sadness.
“haha, is it a bar?? Gapapa said
Mothers are also important that you eat. Come aaa again, open her wide mouth”
Indira feeds Malik again.
A few moments they eat while talking
it just takes away the silence between them. After the meal, Indira
immediately clean up the leftover food waste and return to sit beside
Malik.
“Ndi, tomorrow what day??” ask Akbar
“Friday. Why?”
“tomorrow we skip school yuk. All right, weekend
also a vacation. How?” Akbar offered a brilliant idea. Malik is only
nodding slowly as a sign of his agreement.
“why bar??” ask Indira curiously
“We go to lembang yuk. ngademin soul and body
we're. How?”?
Indira immediately enthusiastic to hear the offer from
Akbar. His face immediately shone when he heard the word Lembang.
Yes, Lembang is a favorite place for them, as well,
especially Indira. For them the villa in Lembang is the most
fun for them. Cool air, vast tea gardens, and
of course, the star binoculars are not far from the location of Pak Adi's villa.
“okedeh. I'll say mom is the same
cemented. How?” ask Indira
“You guys also ndi papi. Biar ramean's. Ye
want a lik??” Akbar's question was greeted with a smile and a nod of the head
from Malik.
Malik thought, perhaps by going to the villa
can refresh his mind. It can help his heart to
the departure of Ms Sri.
“Lik.” Akbar started to open the conversation again
‘hmm?”
“We are always there for you. Our parents were
your parents too. So never feel alone ya”
The warm smile given by Akbar makes
malik's heart was a little open. He realized that his mother's departure was indeed
it hurts, but it opens the end of everything. There are still many people with
sincerely love him.
They talked in the guest room for a long time.
Talk about simple things that can make them forget about sadness
which is being experienced. At least if they are together, the burden they feel
a little lighter.
