Daisy, though,
I am a village girl who is still very innocent. To my innocence and innocence made me so often fooled. They, my closest people, deliberately took me to the city after forty days my father and mother died together from a heart attack.
I guess when they lived in a new place, they treated me like their real child, it turned out that my guess was wrong.
I was made a servant in their house. Clean all parts of the house, along with its contents. There was never a holiday for them. I was hired as they pleased. Sometimes if I didn't follow the rules they made, I would be reviled, scolded and insulted. I also often get punches and slaps on my smooth cheeks.
My mom and dad never treated me like this. They always spoil me. Happy when Mom and Dad were there.
No, it's not that I don't want to be grateful to live with my Uncle and Aunt. However, their attitude and treatment towards me, was like a maid.
My uncle and aunt, they're the ones who are. The house is also large with a yard that may exceed the size of the ball field in my village. Many vehicles. There's a car, and a motor. Not spared also harley motorbike they collect.
However, to hire a maid only, they are reluctant. Even hired me as his unpaid maid.

"Neng, you're going with uncle to town, huh? If you still live here, who will take care of you?" My uncle Beni Karyanto took me.
"If I come, then whose house is this, Uncle?" my many.
"Relax, someone takes care of it later. Uncle doesn't want you to live here alone. Besides, this house is too big for you. Think of a beautiful girl living alone in a big house. What if someone has bad intentions for you? Uncle doesn't want that to happen, Neng." Uncle Ben tried to explain it to me.
"Yes Neng, just come with us, huh? At least we can fulfill the will of your deceased and late parents. They must be happy if you come with us to town." Aunt Mey chimed in. Convince me to go with him.
After a long time they tried to persuade me to come to the city, and I finally agreed. I went with them, left my parents' house, and also left the Cianjur Village that I love so much.

"Hey, don't daydream too much! Look, dirty laundry piled up in the sink! Wash it off right away otherwise you won't get your dinner rations!" hardik aunt Mey, when I saw me daydreaming in the garden of her house.
I'm not a dreamy aunt, I just want to take a break here. I was too busy cleaning this house by myself. I need a partner to work with.
"Why stay quiet?! Quickly clean it up! Move, I'm gonna get some rest!" again, Aunt Mey yelled at me. His words were very sharp. I growled, but I couldn't fight. Because Aunt Mey's fat body makes me stop doing defense.
I shuffled from where I was sitting, then passed away leaving Aunt Mey to the kitchen, in the kitchen it was waiting for the dirty dishes to pile up.
My mind screamed, sick. Invisible wounds, the pain crushes my bones. I feel like I want to go follow my mom and dad, but I still have to be strong. I should be able to be a strong woman. My journey is long. I am sure, behind this incident, God must have given something to me. I believe that.

"Daisy! Where are you?" The sound of a crumb like a tin of rhombeng is calling my name. The owner of the voice was Razak, the eldest daughter of Aunt Mey and Uncle Ben. She acted as if she was the queen in the house. All sorts of personal needs, all of which I prepared.
From clothes, school shoes, eating and drinking I prepared. Otherwise, I'm gonna get me Aunt Mey's slap. You know what the slap looks like? Just try slapping your own cheeks, and that's how you feel. Sick right?
"I'm preparing breakfast for Alea. Wait a sec. I'll be right back," I said, answering his call.
"Hurry now! Don't let me fuck up." Razak threatened.
I'm nodding. Resuming my work. Make breakfast for Alea, clean the floor of the house, and the last one serves Miss Razak whose behavior is like a universal queen.
I'm bored, saturated. Can I leave this world, Mother? I'm so desperate, mom. They all tested my patience, Mom.
Dad, can you help me talk to God? If so, please tell him, just take my life, Dad. I'm tired, I'm bored. I really have gone crazy living at Uncle Ben's house.
Why didn't I run away? It must be hard for me to do that, Dad. Uncle Ben's a gang leader. There are so many people who will help him find me. Then if I run away, where will I live? This is really hard for me.

"Later tonight we'll be gone. Take care of the house, and don't do anything that will harm you! If until you escape, uncle will not hesitate to skin yourself! Understood?" Uncle Ben said in a threatening tone.
I nodded, and I lowered my gaze. I was afraid to look into his eyes. His eyes were red, it seemed like uncle often drank alcoholic beverages.
When they're done giving me an ultimatum, they go have fun. Going with his humps and their joking laughter I heard so loud and crisp. Ah, I envy Razak and Alea.
I'm entering Uncle Ben's house. I closed the door and immediately I put my body on the sofa. I can rest for a while tonight. While enjoying the leftover food my uncle and aunt ate. That was a little stale too. I had to eat it. Let it be okay, as long as my stomach is full and I am not hungry.

"My company's almost bankrupt" said Uncle Ben, as he was having dinner. I heard she was complaining about her company.
"Kok, can you, Pah? How is our fate?" ask Razak.
"This house, along with my assets, must be sold to pay the salary of employees who have not been paid for three months" he said again.
I saw Aunt Mey shut up. His face looks confused. However, a few seconds later it re-emerged while looking in the direction where I was standing.
"We live in the village, Pah. At your late brother's house" he said, giving a crazy idea.
"That's right, Pah. Uncle Johan's house is quite big. So we don't feel like losing our house" Razak said.
Uncle Ben was silent. He thought it was impossible to return to the village, because my father's estate was a rightful inheritance for me. He does not want to take what is not his right.
"No! Let us stay here. Then Dad thought about the next step. You guys finish the meal. After that, you're asleep!"
"Yes, Pah, yes" Razak grumbled with the lips she held forward.
I'm relieved, because Uncle Ben didn't go to my father's estate. Maybe Uncle still has fear while living in the village. Afraid that there is still his nemesis, named Kang Harjo.

Morning time.
Today was so bright, the sun was shining brightly as if smiling happily at me. Its bright rays crept up into the sky, warm. I feel the heat of the light.
Today, I started my usual activities to clean Uncle's house. As usual, prepare food and all sorts of necessities for uncle's children. Now I can sincerely accept their treatment, the scuffles and threats that come out of their mouths.
In the distance, Uncle Ben looks off the road in a hurry. Then sit in the living room. He rubbed his body on his soft sofa. Take a deep breath, then breathe it out. I thought, the problem facing Uncle looks very heavy.
Aunt May took her foot into the living room. She knew her husband had come from the office. Aunt May sat next to Uncle.
"What's wrong?" aunt May asked, while opening the shoes that uncle was still wearing.
"Someone wants to help my company. But, he was on terms, "uncle Ben replied.
"Whatis that? If it's easy, then follow it. After all, we, will be helped by her." aunt May gave advice.
"I have to give up my beautiful daughter to marry into a subsidiary that will help me later."
"Then, what's the problem? Razak, that's very pretty. And Alea too. They'd certainly agree if her future husband was wealthy, and also handsome."
"That's exactly it."
"What is that exactly?" aunt May is confused.
"The prospective husband who will be married, his form is very terrible! He's disabled. His face was awful" whispered Uncle. But I can still hear it.
Aunt May was shocked. His lips were gaping, completely shocked and unable to say anything. Feel it! my mind curses him. I'm content.
Shortly thereafter both of Aunt May's eyeballs, looking at me. Then came a crazy idea from inside his brain.
"Then we marry Daisy. Look, she's, right, very pretty. It is perfect if you are paired with it. Hows it? Do you agree with my husband?"
Uncle Ben thought. Finally, she agreed to Aunt May's proposal. With a sweet smile, Aunt May looked at me. Suddenly, his smile turned into a grin.
Especially this? What am I supposed to do? Why would they sacrifice myself just to save his company, without thinking about my future.
Mom, I want to go far. With you in heaven. []
