The Metamorphosis Of Vani
New Neighborhood
During the quiet afternoon, Vani spent his time in the room, outside it was raining and made the cold mountain air even colder to penetrate the bones. No one would dare to bathe in such a state.
Armed with snacks and a red blanket with flowers motifs, Vani laid himself on the mattress. In this weather the internet network is very bad, but lucky Vani has downloaded as many offline games as possible. While lying down and playing games, Vani chewed one by one snacks that he bought yesterday afternoon at the stall located at the end of the road. I don't know how many snacks he put in his mouth. Since Vani village spent more time in his room, he was very bored and lonely to be in this new environment, lonely, lonely and have no friends.
Since dawn, Mamah has been busy with tea gardens in the back of the house. Mama started working little by little. After the tea seedlings have been planted all, you also begin to plant vegetables to eat every day. On the other hand Mamah planted cabbage, mustard and potatoes, while on the edge of the garden, mamah tanami papaya tree, the banana is in the corner of the garden, bordering the neighboring garden. Then lombok and tomatoes are planted in pots and placed exactly in the house. since long ago, Mamah very happy gardening. While in the city first, you diligently plant vegetables in pots. Besides mamah vegetables also like to plant flowers, so our house looks more beautiful and cool.
Vani who used to live in the city did not expect to move and settle in a corner of the village that is far from the hustle and bustle, frenetic city life decorated with glittering street lights. Sometimes this made him think of going back to the city. Life in the city is much more exciting than in the village. There he has good friends, who can accept Vani as he is. On weekends they always spend time together, sometimes they go to the movies, go to the mall, to karaoke or just sit in cafes on the side of the road. For him life in the city is very fun because he has many friends who love and always protect him.
Once when during sports hours there was a group of students from other classes were bulldozing Vani, Vani who was sitting alone on the sidelines, suddenly thrown a ball and hit his head. Vani who was shocked immediately stood up, then consisting of 5 people approached, then the most beautiful student of them pushed Vani to a seat. "What! Mo's angry! Agleva! Here if you dare"
Vani's teary eyes held back her anger and tears. "Ti.no, I just ka..kaget sa..saja" Vani's voice raspy and stammering.
"Sa..salahku a...what?" Added.
In a curvy tone and pulling Vani's hair, the prettiest female replied "You should be aware that you're standing here ruining the scene and hurting my eyes"
From a distance Vani's best friend ran and immediately kicked the prettiest student from behind, his body shrugged and fell forward, Vani's reflexes immediately helped the prettiest student to stand up. "You don't papa, do you?"
"Take me off! You can hurt me" snapped the prettiest student while pulling the strong hand Vani held.
Fights on the field are inevitable, but the most beautiful schoolgirl is not able to match the strength of Vani's friend who is a taekwondo athlete. Punches, locks and dings he got, until finally the prettiest schoolgirl had to kneel apologizing to Vani.
Vani's friends always defend him desperately, even the incident in the hangout of one of his friends until giving a hard slap to the child who dared to bully Vani. "You dare disturb Vani again! It's me fighting you! Understand!" With a pale face the legislator immediately ran away in a storm. Vani and the others laughed at the child's behavior.
The good times are now only memories, all happened after the papah textile business went bankrupt. At that time Papah sold all his assets and then decided to become a TKI Abroad. Mamah and Vani decide to stay in the village and work on a plot of tea garden owned by Papah's parents. While the two Vani brothers who have married choose to find a boarding place and remain in the city to continue their lives. Now Vani is only two with mamah, Vani is very lonely because he has no friends. In addition, it is difficult to get internet access here, making it even more uncomfortable. "Why don't we just go with the big brother in the city? In the city we can start over. I don't feel right here!" Complain Vani.
"Try to be a little patient my dear, look around you, beautiful right? Green hills, cool air and beautiful scenery! What's less than this place Vani?"
Vani just scrunched his forehead.
"So soon you will be at home here because next week you have started school" said mamah with a smile.
"Well! School?" Hearing the words mamah Vani's face immediately pale. With a fat body like this he felt that no one would accept his existence.
"Yes you will go to school, so prepare yourself and mingle with other children" asserted mamah broke Vani's daydreams.
For many people school is a fun place, a place to meet new friends, get acquainted, forge friendships and first get to know the taste.
Vani should be happy with a new school, a new class, a new teacher and new friends. But no matter what Vani's mind was contrary, he was afraid that not a single friend would be friends with him.
Especially with his condition like this is not impossible he will get bundled in his new environment. Vani is very afraid, in the new school there are no friends who can help when he is in the middle, no friends who come to calm his heart, he said,there were no warm hugs when he met and that made him laugh as he grieved. Now Vani is very sad because he has to solve his own problems.
While at the dinner table he just looked at the food, his face was not excited. The man sitting in front of him was astonished. "What's bad mama's cooking?"
Vani was shocked to hear the words of mamah. "Not mah, the most delicious mamah, only Vani a little afraid to go to school tomorrow mah."
"What are you worried about, son, is everything going to be okay?"
With a bowed face Vani told mamah, that he was afraid that later no one would want to be friends with Vani.
With beaming faces and sparkling eyes Vani eat food that is served mamah.
After everything was done as usual Vani washed the dishes, wiped them and cleaned the dining table. It feels so free when all the tasks have been done, it is time for Vani to go to the room and sleep.
The next day after school without saying anything Vani immediately entered his room, hobbling he climbed the steps step by step. The new school is later on by Vani, as he is about to meet his new friend, who, it seems that everything changed like hell after he got the bundle in his school done by bimbim the gang and siska lovers the gang. Getting an endless bundle in Vani's class makes Vani feel discouraged.
Mamah's face looked astonished at what her son was doing." It's his first day of school that Vani should be happy, right?". Sounded from under the stairs mamah called Vani, but Vani did not give an answer. An anxious mother went upstairs and went into her room. He found his son asleep face down with a sobbing sound that was held.
From the edge of the cot gently mamah rubbed Vani's head "Is everything okay, son?"
Vani is unable to answer anything, he just shifted position and put his head on the lap of mamah.
"Am I that bad, huh? Why is everyone insulting me just because I'm fat?" Vani said while stammering.
Mamah continued to stroke Vani's hair, holding back the tears mamah calm the youngest child, "You are not bad son, make mamah you are princess Mamah, the darling of mamah fruit mamah. It is impossible for God to give birth to his being without merit. You're special my dear, calm down." The sound of mama sounded heavy and raucous.
"They just don't know you, baby, all this will pass quietly" he added.
"Is that really mah?" Vani asked as she raised her head and with sparkling eyes.
"Dear, I'm sure everything will be fine because your friend is a good person" said mamah while hugging Vani.
Mamah saw a deep sadness in her son's eyes, what she had gained on this first day of school.
"May you hear the story on your first day of school, son?" Ask mama.
While fixing his position and putting his head on the lap of Mamah Vani recounted his first day of school. On this first day he had to feel his pain in the grove. He said that when he entered the classroom, on the blackboard there was a picture of a human but hands, feet, feet,the face and stomach are all made round and on the nose they replace it to resemble a pig's nose complete with spots on the upper cheeks left and right then below the picture is written the name Vani. "I was so angry, I wanted to hit the picture maker!' Vani. "But I remember the words mamah do not repay evil with evil, but repay evil with good and pray that those who do evil to you will open their hearts and be good." Vani.
"Nice, you are indeed the best princess mamah" said mamah as she developed her smile and wiped her daughter's tears.
"Well, Vani is hungry" he said spoiled.
"Oh yeah? Then let's go down and eat" take a full mamah excitedly.
The two of them left the room and headed to the dining room. One by one the stairs in the descent, actually this is very bad for Vani who has excess weight, which is very bad,but Vani really likes on the 2nd floor because he can freely see the view from the front window of his room.
Mamah prepared lunch for Vani. This time mamah cook kale with side dishes and small fish that mamah can from the pool behind the house. Vani actually does not like vegetables but because of the circumstances, do not want him to have to eat what he cooked.
Suddenly, as Vani was eating his lunch, he said, "It looks like you should start losing weight baby"
Sighing Vani replied "So right now mamah is following Vani like them too?" Vani's face reddened but still kept her words from hurting her heart.
"That's all for your good, baby. Don't you want to wear a beautiful dress like the other teenagers? Don't you want to have a lover? mamah said while glancing at Vani.
Vani's face immediately flushed red! In a hurry Vani finished her lunch. He got up from his seat without a word and placed his plate in the sink and headed to his room. As usual his body was limped_trained up the stairs, his sweat was pouring as he arrived at the end of the stairs. The breathless breath also bears witness to how exactly Vani's body wants to get a decent life.
The hard day he had gone through, he was not angry at mamah, he was not angry at his classmates, for Vani Mamah had given the best advice for him, even though it made him a little offended. His friends are not wrong because they do not know each other. “All will be well, maybe tomorrow they will be my best friend.”
The next day Vani was ready to go to school. He wears his gray white uniform, complete with a hat and tie. His shoulder-length hair he combed neatly and he decorated it with a small black bando. On the left shoulder is seen Armi green side bag. He uses black sneakers and white socks. At exactly 06:30 he left for school delivered by motorbike. The rural streets are not as smooth as the streets in the city, there are many holes and puddles there. Sometimes Vani had to get off the bike because the old motorbike was unable to climb on the climb before finally arriving right in front of the school gate. Rustic morning air is very cold not infrequently fur kuduk Vani stand. After arriving in front of the gate, you turn the motor and pass at the end of the road. The old motorbike seemed to have been relieved since its load had ended.
