The Sound of Tears

The Sound of Tears
A Song



While waiting for the order to come.


"sister Hendrick why order that?"


"why indeed?"


"no why, brother, just ...."


I'm not done talking, the waiter has come with food that has been ordered Hendrick earlier.


"let's finish your meal, I don't want you to get sick"


"Good brother" I said. This time I felt something was different from Hendrick. Although his style of speech impressed judges/jutek but sometimes he was so attentive to me.


'yes my god.why I became a baper as the strange man gini ya' murmured in my heart.


"why are you smiling to yourself? quickly finish the meal.Then you have to accompany me somewhere" Hendrick said in a cynical tone.


"start again. relapse of strange human disease ni people" I murmured slowly.


"what did you say?"


"oh. uh. not a sis, the cuisine of people here is very good" I said while speeding up eating. 'oh. why I became salting gini ya'.


After enjoying the food at the cafe. Hendrick paid it to the cashier. After that he invited me to leave the place, driving the xenia car that had been modified by the man to the Old City.


Arriving at the old town square, Brother Hendrick invited me to sit on a chair that had been provided there. The atmosphere of the old town this afternoon felt so different to me. It looks like some young people are playing music, there are also some small children with their parents sitting, traders, and many more.


While enjoying the atmosphere of the old city, suddenly a group of young people called out to me, then asked me to sing there.


"This time we call a beautiful woman who is sitting on a white bench there.her name is Shella daughter Amanda" said the man who seemed to be the same age as Hendrick's sister.


"hey man sucks, your name is called tuh" exclaimed Hendrick.


"what?me? where to?" many confused.


"once again sister Shella, welcome to contribute her golden voice here" added the man in black shirt.


"the hunt is there" said brother Hendrick pushing me to a small stage located not far from the position I am sitting in at this time. I don't want to have to go up on that little stage. Then the man in the black shirt gave me a microphone.


"Please, what song do you want to sing?"


Honestly, I am a little nervous right now. How not, it has been a long time since I have never sung in front of the crowd again.especially at this time without prior notice, I was asked to perform here. After talking for a while with the music player, I decided to sing a song called 'BUNDA popularized by Melly Goeslow'


*Blue album open


Full of dust and wear


I looked at all the pictures


Small clean yet tarnished


I also thought I was floating


Formerly loving


Remembering all the stories of people


They said I was always spoiled


They said I was always being cheered on


Beautiful tones


Always off her


A naughty cry from my lips


It won't be his pain


Smooth and holy hands


Has raised this body


Body and whole life


Let him give


They said I was always spoiled


They said I was always being cheered on


Oh, mom is there and there is none


You are always in my heart


I also thought I was floating


Formerly loving


Remembering all the stories of people


They said I was always spoiled


They said I was always being cheered on


Oh, mom is there and there is none


You will always be in my heart*


Unconsciously my tears fell, accompanied by the sound of applause from visitors who watched me sing.
