THE NOURA VAN KEMMERS

Jordan Winhern's

It seems that Mbak Siti is very smart at acting. After Mbak Rara moved from her room and preferred to sleep in Ratna's room, Mbak Siti increasingly aggressively took Mama's heart. He looks diligent and cheerful at work. His face no longer looked strange and mysterious. I noticed it in the kitchen. Siti's usually quiet mother now talks more with Mama. Definitely Mbak Rara became increasingly cornered with the attitude of Mbak Siti who was calm and showed as if nothing happened to him. It was as if he wanted to make up his mind what Ms. Rara told Mama about the strange ritual she used to do in her room every midnight.

I observed Mbak Rara who became increasingly wrong to see the change in attitude of Mbak Siti on Mama. Aah, I feel sorry for Rara. Mama also seems to have succeeded in "conquered" Ms. Siti. Ma'am Siti was able to lure Mama's heart to trust her more.

The busyness of teaching at school and also at La Vita makes my time more crowded. At school, I was involved in many school activities, as well as in La Vita. My teaching schedule is full from Friday afternoon to Saturday. I began to feel comfortable and enjoy teaching at La Vita. The atmosphere is pleasant, co-workers are fun and solid as well of course salary is tempting.

The rain has not yet stopped. It's getting louder. Just pause for a minute and then move again. I just finished my last teaching session. Finally finished too. I hurried to the pantry. A cup of black coffee will definitely make me fresher. When I opened the drawer to get my coffee and sugar, someone patted me on the shoulder. I was surprised, because I did not hear the sound of footsteps of someone entering the pantry.

"Not yet to come home Bang?" apparently Meener Jordan Winhern. His towering body made me look dwarf in front of him.

"Sorry Bang, made Brother surprised. I have Cruisant... It's good for a coffee buddy" Jordan thrust a plastic pack at me with two pieces of Cruisant bread.

"Yet. The rain is still heavy. It can hurt me to come home."

"Yes also Bang. In the transition season like this we must be clever to maintain health. Just a little care to maintain the condition of the body, can immediately drop," said Jordan. Then he invited me to sit on the porch of the pantry facing the side of the road.

"We're talking here, Bang. Enjoying coffee while listening to the gurgling rain is one of the best healing. At least according to my version," he said with a laugh.

This child is also fun to talk to. All this time he was quite friendly. Every time I meet or cross paths at La Vita, he always smiles and greets me first. Curiosity and want to ask back tickle, want to immediately ask him about the origin of his last name? it seems like the right moment. But how do I ask that, huh? and where to start?

He asked me about my daily activities. I told him that I was a music teacher at one of the State High Schools in Depok. He asked again about the excitement of teaching in High School and when I answered, he responded with his exciting experiences in High School first. He said that he had moved to Depok since the 9th grade. Following the Papa who served here.

"But your Indonesian language is pretty fluent too huh?"

"Yup. Bahasa Indonesia is no stranger to our family. My mom is from Bandung. Since I was a child, my mother taught me Indonesian. Papa is also quite fluent in Indonesian, it happens that Papa's ancestors used to live here long enough."

"Oh yes, it must be interesting to remember and relearn about the history of our ancestors," it seems that I began to be interested in prying about the history of his ancestors.

Then he told me about his family. His father was a journalist at an international news agency who had served in the country for the past few years. Her mother is a dermatologist who currently works in a family-owned clinic. When she was in the Netherlands, her mother worked in a hospital. She also shared that she has a twin sister named Josephine who is currently studying at Utrecht University majoring in law.

"I'm more interested in music, Bang. There is no interest in college yet" he said casually.

"look koq. Your music game is great. Really animating. Especially when playing classical music. It's amazing."

"I've been studying music since I was 4 years old. He began studying classical music at the age of 12. There was a sensation when I first came into contact with classical music, and since then I've been more and more interested in it."

"Wow, that's amazing. Why don't you go to music school then?"my many.

"Well, Bang. Although the parents object a little. They wish I could continue my education in another field."

Seriate.
