The Sound of Tears

Desperate Asa

"pratama sir and Madam Mentari. Mr. Pratama is the son of Mr. Michael, indeed they live in that house. But since there was trouble there about ten years ago, Mr. Michael has also died. The house was deliberately left by the owner and my husband was told to guard the house" explained Mr. Tur.

"Do the mbok know how the pratama master and the lady of the sun mbok look?" I asked who was more curious.

"if it's the mbok less know non, because they used to rarely come here. mbok know his Mr. pratama was the only son in the house.Except Mr. Michael who is famous philanthropist and often help the community around here" added mbok Tur explained.

"oh so yes mbok." I said slowly.

"who are these two? why ask who has a house that is non?"

" this is how my friend is looking for the whereabouts of his parents." said Karina.

"meaning non?" ask mbok Tour wonder.

Then I explained my purpose and purpose in coming to the complex, I told how the contents of the letter that was written by Ms. Siti.

"so... This non is the son of Mr. Pratama, is it?"

" maybe Mbok, Shella doesn't know the truth either. But Shella would love to meet them".

After talking for a few hours, then asked the neighbors about the whereabouts of my parents. But most of them are immigrants and some who have lived in the complex for a long time, do not know where and how my parents look.

It did not feel like the day had begun to afternoon, Karina invited me to immediately return to her boarding house. With sadness and a lethargic face, I was forced to end the search that day. I began to despair of finding out where my parents were. By ordering a Gi Car, we went home to Karina's hostel.

It felt like my body was helpless, there was no more clover in me.

"patiently, Shella, I'm sure one day you can meet both of your parents" Karina said, trying to encourage me.

"thank you, Karina, I don't know where else to look for them" I said. No tears have fallen down this cheek. Then Karina hugged me and tried to calm me down.

My phone suddenly sounded

"*hallo"

"Shella where are you? I've been

waiting for you in front of me since"

"who's this?"

"hey lady sucks, why did you forget my voice.I'm your girlfriend Hendrick"

"oh, brother Hendrick, I'm sorry, brother, you're wearing a new number here"

"while, sister, Shella is on the road, just sit back"

"where are you from*?"

Not finished the man spoke, the call was cut off.

"ciieee got a call from her new guy" Karina smiled at me.

"what the hell is Karina." said I who blushed embarrassed.

Shortly after, we arrived at the Karina boarding house. Hendrick was also waiting on the front porch.

"Hi Brother Hendrick" said Karina.

"hey.. where did you guys end up?" ask Hendrick.

"it's normal, sister.women .. there's business" replied Karina.

"what business?" ask Hendrick again.

"for a while, I stayed first" said Karina who stepped inside the boarding house.

"you've come from wherever Shella is" Hendrick asked me.

"oh that's out of books." I replied, I don't want Hendrick to be angry if I find out I went to the pioneer path.

"have you eaten?"

"not yet brother"

"it just so happens, let's eat out" Hendrick asked.

"wait a minute, sister, Shella call Karina first"

"oh.why must take karina anyway.we eat it alone" said Hendrick who looks upset.

"but brother"

"later to the night hunt... Karina borrowed your friend for a while" exclaimed Hendrick, pulling my hand into his car.

"okay" Karina's dance from inside the kos. Looks like he's figured out how Hendrick's moves.
