"Sin, instead of being dumbfounded, I'll call my cousin, I'll play basketball. We'll also draw two against two ok!"
"Yes, where's Wi?""Just a kid around here, his name is Agung, he's like we are still in 1st grade at junior high school."Geez, like hearing lightning, I don't think Bowi said his cousin was Agung. Is this Agung my best friend at Kindergarten first?
"Agung is the grandson of Mr. Slamet Wi?"
"Yes, how come you know the name Our Grandfather Sin?""Yes, he was my best friend from Wi Kindergarten. We went to school there, every time we came home to Kindergarten. We were so busy playing in this field every day until we lost track of time.""Come into my house, let me call her first Sintia, Catur, come on in.""Don't tell me there is me, I'm afraid he'll be embarrassed later Wi.""Yes, just slow down. We make a surprise ok Sin."Bowi to call Agung, it's true that we only play basketball for about five minutes on the basketball court for Mom's school, Agung has already arrived. Actually, I know that Agung's house is exactly five houses from Mom's school with the fence and white paint. But if I'm windless and the news of playing there all of a sudden, yes, if he remembers me, if he forgets what to do. I'm embarrassed now. Remember our Kindergarten days, Agung used to make me crowns, necklaces and rings made from grass flowers in this field. Campus Football Field, almost six years we have not met since the Kindergarten farewell first. And now I'm stunned, the same Agung with a different face when I remember.
"Gung here, we are here"
Bowi looks like calling his cousin. Agung came here on a bicycle. I can only freeze for a moment. While remembering Agung's face when he was in Kindergarten, now he looks very tall, white and still as handsome as when he was a child.
"Wi, are you playing basketball?"
"Yes, usual. Oh yes introduce Gung.""Must be your girlfriend Wi? Which one is it?""This is called Catur, the length is Catur Suryani. If that is the friend, the name is Sintia."After Agung and Catur shook hands, Agung's face was thinking, does he remember my name, he looked at me for a long time, looking a little confused. Does he remember Sintia, Kindergarten's friend. I started smiling sweetly at him. Agung gave his hand to me and we shook hands.
"Hi, great huh?"
"Hi yes ...""Do you remember, brother?"Bowi annoys us. And it seems that Agung is starting to try to remember something again.
"Isn't that crazy?"
"Yes Sintia is her name. Do you remember something? When you were at Kindergarten?"His face began to laugh, and looked red, I don't know what I could imagine, so I was embarrassed, funny and confused about what else to chat with him, really awkward. All that remained was embarrassment and embarrassment.
"This is you Sin? Is this true Sintia, my friend from Kindergarten?
"Yes Gung.""Oh Allah, it's been a long time since we met Sin."He asked me to tell a story, yes, discuss why not elementary school right in front of our Kindergarten, many of our friends who went to school with him before. But, it's a shame we didn't have long to chat, it seemed that mom and dad had gathered in front of mom's school, like it or not Catur and I had to get ready to go home and say goodbye to Agung and Bowi. But calm down, Bowi will give us our respective telephone numbers. I am happy, my little friends, one by one, I have found them again now, and the results are very strange.
Catur and I ran into Daddy's car, in Dad's car and Mom asked, Who were those who played basketball with us earlier, I just explained that they were happy to say they were Agung and Bowi, my friends from Kindergarten. The grandson of Mr. Slamet, my best friend and former boss of my daddy. But now Mr. Slamet has retired and remains a successful and famous landlord in our small town.
"Oh friends, but you were spoiled when you were in Kindergarten, right? Every day you stick together, playing in the field. Never go home unless Mom picks up, Narwan’s son and grandson of Mr. Slamet.
"Oh yeah, the one who used to like to wear Batman clothes, Mom, and Sintia wears her daughter's style.""Lol..."Catur laughed at me, so did Mom and Dad.
"Ohh Mom, just embarrass me."
Yes, now you can say that I am relieved and not curious anymore, unexpectedly today I can meet and chat with Agung again, imagining the day when Kindergarten separation used to be, sadly funny, now only Evi and Alex are left. I found where they went to school.
A few days later Agung called me, we began to talk often about lessons and hobbies. Now Agung, my little friend, besides being a bookworm, he really likes music. Being close and just getting to know me is already very happy, and it seems that he is not yet interested in pursuing a relationship other than friendship, so naturally, of course he is very focused on school and its activities.
It's been two days Masril has rarely called me, and when he comes home from school he rarely comes to see me to go home again, is he busy with student council activities at school as usual? Or maybe he's not feeling well and in the mood. Let it be tomorrow I'll greet him at school only. While returning together again as usual with friends. So there's nothing I should worry too much about.
The next day,
Time to come home from school, as usual I invite my friends to go home together. There are those who are dating, some are having fun chatting with each other if they don't go out with their boyfriends. This afternoon I saw Masril, and I invited him to go home together. We went home together, two different gangs, Hendrik and his friends, looked like Tika and Dimas were going home together too. The thing that I like about Masril is her sweet smile. It seems that Dimas and Tika are fighting, there is nothing wrong with dating, it's funny if you look around. But, we don't really bother and interfere with the problems of the two of them, after all, later or tomorrow we will definitely get along and look intimate again. We then went home to take the city transportation as usual, and the fun is that this weekend we will have a camp and week together. There is Masril and my friends of course. A new adventure in a location that I have never seen, could it be a rice field or a mountain, so I'll see you later but they said it was complete with rice fields, mountains and small rivers. Imagine how exciting it would be to camp with all of them.It's good today, it doesn't feel like it's Thursday, and tomorrow I'm going to go camping with friends, something I've been waiting for sure. There are Vina, Maria, Dedeh, Umi, Agustin, Rini, Nicky a lot. Catur didn't participate, she didn't like scouts, but she took part in the extra-curricular activities of Tai Kwon Do, with Yayuk and Yeni, two of our best friends, I called them three sporty women. Don't ask about sports, because they like them so much that it can even be said to be a hobby. I just prefer traditional dance and dance as a substitute for sports, yes, together with Nicky in my class and Yuanita, my best friend since elementary school. The five of us, Susi, Niki, Nita, Tika and Rina made a group to practice dance. There are Bedana, Bedana Lunik and Siger Pengunten dances. Almost every day during the 2nd break at school we practice some dance moves. Not infrequently we become a spectator for friends during our break. Let us be absorbed in our hobby. After all, our hobby is useful, entertaining and not detrimental to them. If my mom forces me to do sports on Sundays, at most I choose basketball and swimming or aerobics with different and loud music that I can do at home while practicing dance.
Ringing, the sound of the telephone ringing Ms. Sri has returned to her house, I feel lazy to pick up the phone again.
"Hello, good afternoon."
"Yes hello, can talk to Sintia.""Yes with Sintia.""Sin This is Dimas, I want to say that Tika and I have broken up now!""Ah really, isn't it like yesterday that you guys were still walking, why Dim?""Haven't you heard Sin's gossip?""Not yet Dim, what's wrong?""Masril and Tika's gossip has already been together, that's why Tika broke our relationship.""Seriously Dim, how come Masril and I are still walking?""Yes, try to investigate tomorrow when you were at school.""Yes Dim, thank you for giving Sintia info."Oh Allah, what else is this, it's always like this, every time I start to feel love and comfort in my heart. Is dating like this really annoying. But my friends are fine. Even the girl who often changes boyfriends because she gets the more handsome, cool and clever one is for various reasons. Already, I just ignore the bad news first, tomorrow at school I will ask them while looking at the facts, is it true what Dimas said. I continue to prepare my tools for tomorrow night, it's complicated I will go camping, so that everything can be seen with my own eyes.
The next day.
I purposely left not with daddy, I asked to get off at the terminal this morning, with the excuse that I wanted to take a notebook that was borrowed by a friend. Yes, at this hour they must be still busy at the terminal, if those who already have a boyfriend are sure to be busy making appointments, corner and ride city transportation together.Now that, I see Masril, let me sit here first, just hiding, keeping quiet, watching the clock so that I don't get late catching another city transportation to school. Saturated ... There you go, Tika. Sure enough, Tika greeted him, talked and left together with Masril, looking very familiar and not awkward, huh? Is it true that they invented? But why? how do you have the heart? Let it be, I have to calm down, I better find another city transportation to go to school. Arriving at school sure enough, Masril did not look for me, greeted him like usual days. Maybe something wasn't right between the two of them. I see Masril prefers to the school canteen, not far from Tika's class. Almost, I almost felt my second heartbreak.
Meanwhile, I heard that Iwan and Eni's sister have broken up, and Iwan will move to the Favorite Junior High school in our city. Same, I should also move according to the help of our daddy's connection. But if Iwan and I still don't say hello, what will Iwan think about if I also move schools with him. And I'm comfortable here, I already have lots of friends and even good friends, maybe later I better cancel my intention to change schools. When I came home from school, Masril really ignored me, I tried to be normal, felt nothing and felt comfortable going home with Masril and Tika. And this afternoon, we're going to camp together. Hopefully, Dimas said it wasn't true, maybe they just got close again because of something we didn't know. This afternoon, mom and dad took me to school, my scout uniforms and attributes were ready. Likewise with a change of clothes, toiletries and my needs for food and snacks. Lots of food that mom brought for me. Likewise pocket money, wh
The phone at my house rang, but it turned out that Iwan called me again. As if there were no problems in the past, he invited me to chat a lot of things, about my news, school, tutoring and my daily activities. I don't know what this is, what is certain is that Iwan, who was once ignorant, has now returned to paying attention to my days. Now there is no more stiffness between us, everything has improved, my friend, my best friend has returned to my arms again. All my complaints besides I told my friends that Iwan was loyal to hear me again. Sometimes he calls me Sin, Honney or other sweet calls, sometimes we spoil each other's words. Is this what is called Friends But intimate. If you say back there are no words, but if you say friends, closer and special than other male friends. Whatever it is I feel happy and comfortable now. As a result, I felt that I was single for a long time, my relationship with Iwan could be said to be limited to friends but intimate,
I also continue my activities. Fina and Maria practice marching, they don't have the talent to dance, it's different with me, Nicky and Tika, while the sporty gilr Catur is practicing Tai Kwon Do, with Yeni and Yayuk. For me dancing is fun, it can make me feel calm and happy. I started dance lessons since Elementary School. Learning the Menjangan dance and the prayer dance from his first origins. Now I am exploring typical Lampung dances, including the Bedana, Bedana Lunik, Sembah dances and Melinting dances. The name of our dance teacher is Sri Wiji, she is very kind, friendly and gentle. In the future, we will appear at various school events such as farewells or dance competitions between schools, isn't that exciting? After dancing, we gathered to go home from school, only Fina was not walking together towards my daddy's office, because her house was in the opposite direction to us. I, Catur and Maria purposely drove by daddy's car, saving money. W
This Sunday morning, my mother and I took my father to his regular doctor. O Allah, it is sad to see that you have to swallow such a large and large amount of medicine all the time. And daddy still strengthens himself to drive his favorite old car. "Dad, how much money do you still have?""Not many Mom, only a few more sheets.""Yes, be patient Dad. I hope there is a provision of Allah from the others.""Yes Mom.""Sin, let's just go to the supermarket, we can't take a walk yet. We'll buy bread and fruit for Daddy.""Yes, actually Daddy wants to take Sintia to the beach. It's definitely fun, sometime right Sin?""Yes Mom, yes Dad. Anytime if daddy is healthy." Honestly, after knowing my father's condition was quite severe, I was very afraid to ask for anything. Sometimes mom often offers me food, toys or clothes every shopping time, but if they don't insist on buying it, I won't ask for it. Poor mom and dad, you definitely have to spend a lot
It seems Catur met Miftah this morning, and this afternoon Miftah wants to visit my daddy at the hospital. I'm a little dizzy I study and do assignments at school, maybe because I don't get enough rest. After finishing school, I, Catur, Fina, Maria and several other friends visited my daddy. They are always united and always try to entertain and fill my day. Not long, they only took about 30 minutes to visit their daddy, indeed they were limited because he was quite seriously ill and needed more rest by the doctor. Looks Miftah coming, she smiled at me. Say hello to me, Catur and daddy. I don't know what he brought for my daddy various, maybe breads, pastries, milk and fruits. Really he was generous to me. And for a long time accompanying us, it looks like the adult side is starting to grow up, talking very intimately with my father. The clock didn't feel like it was 16.00 in the afternoon, Catur and I were getting ready to go home, so was Miftah. We sa
I'll have a dance competition today, it's quite a busy morning. I prepared some equipment such as a thin and comfortable shirt that I will use for my underwear when I get dressed up later. I didn't forget to put in some make-up equipment, a comb and a corset. The corset is the most important asset for us as dancers. So that the cloth and kebaya that we use can look neat and comfortable to wear. You can't miss it, you can take off my cloth later. "Sin, Daddy can't see Sintia appear right, sorry Daddy is not feeling well, and in the office there are some files that Daddy has to work on.""Yes Dad, it's okay.""But Dad still takes Sintia to school first, okay?" Daddy hurried to get ready, he gave in leaving early so he could take me first to prepare for the grooming for the next stage. While mom chose to go to noon on her motorbike. Because there is still a lot of homework. At 06.00 sharp, I arrived at school, it was very, very quiet. Only Wiji and Nicky's
"Sin, let's wake up already midday!""Yes Mom, just a moment yes Mom, still very sleepy.""We'll be late, let's take a shower! mom also wants to go to be a jury."The clock shows 05.00 yes, sure enough, as fast as lightning we have to get ready at 06.30 we have to be at the starting line and ready for the marching race later. Daddy kindly escorted us, although I'm sure it must be very tired and it's still too early for activities. But Daddy was used to getting up at dawn, even though he was sick or not sick, it was the same. Daddy is very obedient in carrying out his 5 daily prayers. Daddy is the perfect figure for me.When Line-Lining.We were almost too late, we arrived five minutes before the game's departure. The other friends were ready to line up neatly, we ran closer to the line. Tidy up hats, clothes and definitely tie shoelaces tightly. So that when the race does not fall and get stuck. Yeni served as team leader, she was already loo
Daddy's health continues to decline, this afternoon while joking with mom there are a few complaints and an implicit message that he tells us. "You're tired, every day you swallow the doctor's medicine, it's already big and there are more and more types!""Daddy , why do you say that? Be patient, Dad.""Yes Mom, it's been sick for decades until everything we have is used up.""Yes, be patient, Dad. Mom also knows that some savings, gold, land, motorbikes, cars have been sold, but all for the sake of Daddy, for the sake of my father's health, Mom asked Daddy to continue to be enthusiastic and fight his illness.""Yes, sorry for Sintia if Daddy dies now Mom.""Daddy, what are you talking about!""If later, Daddy is sick again, don't take him to Imanuel Hospital or Rajawali Bandung anymore Mom, Daddy is resigned, only a necklace is left, a necklace of remembrance of our dowry.""Don't say that Dad, hopefully there will always be sustenance la
