The Other Me

The Other Me
Ema



Rushing Ema up to his house, without greeting the occupants who hung on the same roof he immediately entered his room which was located at the back in the corner of the house.


This 20-year-old girl pulled a suitcase from the top of a closet that she hadn't used for a long time. Fold and insert a few pieces of formal clothes, some daily wear and 3 pairs of pajamas. His suitcase is not fully filled because he only brought a few pieces of clothing, he filled the laptop again in there.


Ema went down with brown cloth pants and a white shirt that was inserted and clad in cream cardigan pulled her suitcase.


" Where are you going?" ask a girl in high school clothes who is sitting on the sofa of the family room.


" Work.." Ema answered briefly.


" Ma, Ema wants to go." The high school girl fights.


" I want to work dodol, a lot of it is my cut of your pocket money." threatening Ema.


" Mama Ema doesn't want to give me pocket money." the high school girl fought.


" Ema you're okay, my mother told me that your debt to the school mama is paid off so you can't go that way." said the middle-aged woman while robbing Ema's suitcase.


" Ema wants to work ma, the office is in business travel, Ema was chosen.." explained Ema.


" Don't believe me ma, he's lying, just don't want to give me the same money again so you want to move..."


" Thener it's Ema, they're your sister, why do you really want to go from home, why the same house?" ask mom Wonder.


" Mama says sister, I'm an only child mama if mama forgets, I want to go from here because mama is not like the old mama, if you don't marry again and have 2 stepchildren I'm happy to live three lives with mom papa, just because the man is rotten, and they are not my sister, I'm happy, they're the snakes that raise my salary every month..."


Plaques


"So your mouth, you big mama to be rich gini, less..."


" Mommy doesn't even care about me anymore and only cares about your new family, all this time I have to be avenged? Do I really want to live my mom?" Ema was already in tears.


" You are only born from your fault." explained the mother made Ema's heart like it was pierced by thousands of needles.


" Okay then, I was never considered in this house, oh yes, my mama's account number is still the same right, mama calm down, I will transfer every month anyway..." Ema passed away leaving the house.

Ema walked down the complex towards the main road. In the complex area there is no public transportation or ojek passing so that makes it have to walk about 5 minutes.


But even though he has been on the road ramaipun he has no intention to ride one of the public transportation. He only has 10 money in his hand, the ATM machine is too far from where it is, the handpon has no power, and now is a small drizzle.


Unfortunately for this girl. No, his life was not unfortunate because a black car stopped right in front of him.


" Sister, come on in..." Ema could hear the familiar voice but could not see because she was looking down and sobbing slowly.


" You want to keep the lady waiting." The cold voice of the master secretary of his big boss or the number 2 person in the office he interns.


" I'm sorry.." said Ema.


Ar opened the door and came down, ignoring Bruno who forbade him from being exposed to rain so as not to get sick. Inevitably Bruno came down with them and protect the two girls at odds of 7 years.


" Sister Ema why are you crying here?" ask Ar for worry. I don't know why he cares so much about the woman in front of him.


" Ema, can you take the lady inside and tell her a story?" bruno asked in a commanding tone.


" good sir... Miss entered first, it will hurt." said Ema, he then held the umbrella in Bruno's hand, with Ar's eyes, he ordered Bruno put Ema's suitcase in the trunk.


" So?" ask Ar.


" I was accused of leaving the house by my mother and stepbrother, my family is quite a mess..."


" No need to explain anymore? Is there still important stuff in your house, we can make you really stop by... Brother Uno, go to Ema's house now..."


***


" Mama, there are guests." shouted a high school girl whom Bruno believed to be Ema's half-sister.


" Told in, baby." replied the mother with a shout.


The girl let the two men in. Bruno and right behind his back is Ema there while Ar still receives a call from papi.


" Loh Ema, why else are you here, want to pay all your debts?" ask the mother who just entered the guest room.


"..." - ".Ema quiet.


" So you're the man who instigated him to leave here, you did my son rebel like this..."


" How much does Ema owe this family?" ask Ar who just came.


" Tens of millions, the debt he owed from when I took care of him until he went to college today." explained his mother.


" In this ATM there are 120 million, Ema take your goods that are left behind." said Ar while putting a card on the glass table.


Ema did not accept but when she wanted to protest to Ar about the debt money that her mother said was also the money that Ar gave but he was stopped because he was stared at sharply by Bruno.


He got up and went to his room. There, he took a bag that was located at the very bottom of his clothes containing his diploma and important letters that he took silent because he had been detained by the mother when he wanted to stop for several months then. He also took a gold necklace with Ema's inscription which he kept because his sister had wanted it.


He returned to the living room that was quiet for some reason.


" Have?" ask Ar.


" It's miss..."


" Let's go.." take Ar.

" Miss, don't we have to go to the airport now?" ask Ema, merwka is in the supermarket.


" The flight was delayed because of the weather that was not supportive, the lady also had to buy thick clothes because the place we were headed was snowing." explained Bruno.


Do not ask where Ae because Ema has not yet asked the direction of the audah to go to see and choose a twbal jacket that he will use later.


" Do you have clothes?" ask Bruno.


" I'm wearing clothes right now and I have my clothes in my suitcase, sir." replied Ema, confused as to what to answer the strange question of the man next to her.


" Stupid, thick clothes. You want to freeze to death in France and live your life. Next put this on..." Bruno gave a card containing the money.


" But sir..."


" Till the hotel later make a contract with the lady, I can't interfere." said Bruno then passed away leaving her, after which she followed Ar.
