The Primadona

Chapter 04 The Ballad of City Life

About 2 hours waiting for the return of the mother and the others, they finally came. I fell asleep in the living room because I was tired from the long journey. Mom was shocked to see me coming, she hugged me non-stop with tears in her eyes. My two sisters, they're all boys. Bram is already in the 1st grade of High School, while Tio is in the 2nd grade of Junior High School. They also hugged me tightly.

After my death, apparently Bram after school worked part-time at the tempe factory where I used to work. The results are enough to help mothers meet their daily needs, although I know the results obtained are not much. Mom told me about Edo, they had brought Edo to alternative medicine he said someone used me through Edo so Edo became like this. But I don't fully believe, there must be a medical explanation of what Edo suffered.

Regarding my heart, which I imagined before returning home, I will run after Edo who has begun to run smoothly in fact I was wrong. I see Edo's legs are indeed like no development. His gaze was often empty, his saliva was always flowing. My God, what another trial is this. Then Mother took out a bottle of water that had been given by the doctor.

"Mom, Edo will not heal if only given this kind of water continues. We need to get Edo to the doctor as soon as possible" I said expectantly.

"But here the doctor's a long way from Eli, we don't have a vehicle either. And of course the cost of the doctor is not cheap son." replied my mother in a sad tone.

Mother's answer has a point. It is true that our house is far from the doctor's office. It is true that doctors are not cheap. We also have no vehicles. The more heart this feels.

I was about to take Edo from his mother's arms, but Edo refused. Maybe it was because he hadn't seen me in a long time so he didn't recognize me anymore. I smiled bitterly. I tried to hold back my tears in front of my little prince. Even if he's not perfect, Edo is still my heart. My water runs through his body.

Hugging Edo, I whispered my apologies. I feel guilty for being an unworthy mother to my son.

"Mother's sorry, son, Edo's a strong boy. Edo's a good boy. All love Edo. Edo is healthy, baby, we will go for a walk in the city." I said smiling while crying.

After traveling for 5 hours, until I was at Mami Luna's house. Yuli and Mami were getting ready to go to the bar to make up again. Without much ado, I immediately joined them.

"Aiihh Mami's son is here again." welcome Mami sumringah.

We rushed to the bar. Inside the bar, I thought. Women who like to accompany the karaoke he said the payment is good, there are Rp. 100,000 are also paid Rp. 300,000 per hour. So per night their income is more than enough. I met one of the lady escorts.
