The Plain Girl Beloved by Mr. Al
03# Walking
After Ayu and Nana go to school. Delisa was just getting ready. Seeing the neat Delisa Ahmad just approached him.
"Where are you going, Del?"
"I'm going to the pharmacy, brother"
"Well? you sick?"
"No, Brother. I'm not sick. But I'm going to the pharmacy to make up for my brother's medicine. Brother want to come?"
"He's a. Most of you are confused to do something at home alone"
"Yes, come on" Delisa and Ahmad just walked out of the house. Arriving outside Ahmad did not see a single vehicle they could use to leave.
"What are we riding, Del?"
"Streeting"
"Street?" ahmad reflex.
"She, walk. Why, sister? walking in the morning is good for our bodies"
"Yes, come on then" said Ahmad just stepped foot following Delisa.
"Del, where's mom's dad? how come you haven't seen him since you were aware?"
Hearing Ahmad's words, Delisa immediately stopped her steps while taking a slow breath. Seeing Delisa's reaction, Ahmad immediately felt bad.
"Is my sister talking wrong?" ahmad stared at Delisa's face.
"No. My brother didn't speak wrong. Mom and Dad died a year ago" Delisa said, trying to smile.
Hearing Delisa's words, Ahmad immediately understood. Ahmad just glanced at Delisa. Why Ahmad could see from the smile of Delisa's joy there was stored sadness and also a very heavy burden stored behind him.
"One knew then Dad died because of the pain he suffered for many years. After a few months of Dad's death, Mom also caught up with him. I fell asleep with TB because I was too tired to work. The doctor said she could recover by undergoing treatment at the hospital. Because we do not have money mothers choose to be treated at home and use traditional medicines. However, she never showed us her pain so we thought she was okay. But one day, my mother fell in blood. I saw it right away and took it to Nita's midwife's house. But, it's a pity that mother's life can't be saved" Delisa explained as she shed her tears.
"You're patient, Del. I promise you I will be a good father and brother to you. Brother will help you to raise Nana and Ayu" Ahmad tries to encourage Delisa.
Hearing Ahmad's words, Delisa immediately smiled. Why even though he did not know the origin of Ahmad's precepts, but Delisa felt very comfortable with him.
"But, we've come a long way. How come we're not there?" ahmad was feeling tired.
"We've just walked five hundred feet. While the apot is one kilo meter from the house" said Delisa smiling to see the sweat of Ahmad who had poured wet his shirt.
Delisa gave her father's late dress to use Ahmad. Incidentally, the late father of Delisa has the same body as Ahmad so that all his clothes fit on Ahmad's body.
"Ha... So we have to walk another five hundred meters, Del?'' ahmad said he did not believe. Because weary Ahmad chose to sit on the edge of the narrow market.
"If you are tired we just stop there" said Delisa pointing to the concrete bridge where there is a seat there can be used for them.
"Alright" Ahmad just stood up and stepped his feet that were very sore.
Arriving at the bridge Delissa and Ahmad just sat down while staring at the river flow below them.
"Wouldn't you drink?" Delisa tried to give her a bottle of water that she had provided from home.
"You drink first"
Ahmad stared in amazement at Delisa's natural beauty. There's not a little powder polish in there. Delisa's beauty is natural.
"Thank you, Del"
Delisa just smiled and drank mineral water from her bottle. Because his throat was already dry because it walked for five hundred meters and there was another five hundred meters long road that was willing to wait for them.
"Is there no public transport here, Del?" ahmad began to step foot again following Delisa.
"If public transportation is on the big road right at the intersection want to enter this village brother. Usually the village people who do not have a vehicle are either motorcycle or rickshaw to get out. But, the fare is expensive, brother"
"So Ayu took Nana to school how?"
"If Ayu and Nana use rickshaws but together with other friends. So, the cost is quite cheap and pay it monthly"
Hearing Delissa's explanation, Ahmad immediately understood. Ahmad tried to keep his legs even though it felt very sore. Unlike Ahmad who was tired Delissa even walked with excitement sometimes the beautiful girl also ran small when she saw the beautiful animal they passed.
"Sister, look at that bird. Pretty, right?" said Delisa pointing towards the bird that was perched on the tree branch.
Not feeling the end of their stay until also in the pharmacy, Delissa just gave a recipe that was given by Nita midwife.
"Sister, I'm going to buy a prescription for this drug"
"Tunghu for a moment" the owner of the pharmacy just received a prescription drug that Delisa gave. While waiting, Delisa invited Ahmad to sit in the waiting chair.
"Relisa?" several girls in ash-and-ash uniforms came to them.
"Hi.. You guys are home from school?" delisa said she saw a friend of hers who came home from school early.
"We came home early because today the division no test. You know not since you quit school the class situation is very quiet without you" Hearing the words of her friend Delisa just smiled forcedly.
"Who are you talking about, Del?" said friend Delisa staring amazed amazement Ahmad.
"Oh it. Meet him brother Ahmad. I introduce them to my friend Delisa" Delissa just introduced Ahmad to her friend.
"That's handsome. His hands are also very smooth" said friend Delisa cheered happily because she could shake hands with Ahmad.
"Mr. This is the cure" said the owner of the pharmacy broke the chiby chiby chat.
"How much, Ma'am?"
"Everything is one hundred and seventy thousand, Ma'am"
Ana just took the money in her bag. Ahmad looked at Delisa with an indescribable gaze.
"We went home first" Delisa told a friend of hers.
Delisa's friend immediately agreed, even though Delisa had to serve their chat first.
"They're your schoolmates, Del?" ucao Ahmad's.
"Yes, sis. But after Dad and Mom died I chose to quit school to be able to finance the school Ayu and Nana" explained Delisa honestly
