The Rejected Promise


_Ins_


I stepped foot to the main door. Today I really left. Still can't believe, I'm gonna live a life like this. I drive my car slowly. Yes, I prefer to use a car rather than my favorite motorcycle, because many things I carry.


" Where should I go? " Lirihku


There's no way I'm going to Mas Tama's house, she'll be so upset to find out about my pregnancy.


After thinking for a long time, I decided to stay in the countryside. Far away from the city, I want to live a quiet life. And I also don't forget to change my phone number with a new one. I really want to live quietly.


I've reached the countryside. A village not far from where I come from. I started looking for a house contract that was complete with the contents. For about an hour I went around looking for a contract, I finally found it.


I can see it from a distance.


" Lot comfortable "Lirihku.


Not too big and not too small. It's right for me and my future son. Close to shops and markets. It would be so easy if I wanted to buy something.


I called the person who had a contract, and soon a woman came with a small bag.


" Maybe it's the hostess "I thought.

Now I'm done cleaning my house and doing all my stuff.


" Hufhh!, finally done as well" Lirihku.


I began to feel hungry, I looked at the clock turned out to be two in the afternoon. Busy looking for a place to live to make me forget lunch time. I must not be selfish now, not only am I hungry but my future son too. Rushing I went to the store to buy groceries and other necessities. I have to start living independently. Who used to be a mom, now have to do it yourself.

The silence and emptiness I felt tonight. Usually when night falls I eat dinner with Papa and Mama, watch TV together, or sometimes busy with work. Now that no one told me to go to sleep, no one forced me to keep learning. Being away from your parents is no fun. I fell asleep tired of crying.


On a clear morning, today I woke up at dawn, starting with sweeping the floor, washing my clothes yesterday and after that went to the market to buy ingredients for stock for a few days ahead. Also buy snacks, bread, and bottled drinks. A lot of what I buy today, especially on snacks, considering that pregnant women are said to always be hungry, especially at midnight.


When I got home, I cooked and took a shower.


I'd love to see my development. So I decided to go to the village midwife. Long time I searched for his place, now I have arrived at the village midwife's house.


It is quite modern here, the tool is complete. Now I can see my development. Said the midwife was only six weeks old. I smiled when I saw it.


"Healthy yes, you want your stomach, let Mama have friends later. " My words are stroking my flat stomach.
