“Ya already, let's have breakfast first. afterwards we go home..” said Eliana while preparing breakfast Kezia.

Kezia made no comment. Just sit up sweetly and open her mouth as a small mouthful enters her mouth. His mind is still spinning guessing who is the person who has paid off his hospital costs which is certainly not small.

A happy expression was clearly visible on Kezia's face when she got home. The atmosphere of the house is very much Kezia yearns for these few days. He is grateful to be able to return to this house, a warm house with loved ones.

To enter the Martin family home there are indeed several steps that must be passed and that makes Kezia forced to be carried to enter the house. Inside the house, Kezia sat back in his wheelchair.

“Pah, what zia is so heavy?” Kezia asked as she looked at Martin's sweaty face.

“Mah, zia tomorrow can school right?”

Eliana looked at Kezia's hopeful face.

“Siap mah!” sahut Kezia while doing a brief salute.

Eliana could smile in relief, because of her daughter who was so full of spirit. He is not ashamed to go to school even with his current condition. Though this is what Eliana most feared, Kezia became a person of inferiority. But it seems his fear was not proven.

“What tomorrow will you join UN dear?”

“Iya mah, zia will join UN as scheduled. And probably will work on the first day UN gag zia follow.”

“Spirit yes dear... Mamah do’akan all running smoothly.” Eliana clasped Kezia's hand.

“Okeeyyy ladies.. her room is done.” said Martin who appeared with a shirt full of pink, yellow and blue paint stains.

“ Really pah?” Kezia immediately steered his wheelchair towards his new room. Looks neat with a beautiful paint color combination. Admittedly, Martin does have a high artistic spirit. “There are still many rewards...” said Kezia while embracing his papa waist.

“Sama-sama dear....you like?”

“Yaa zia really like..”

Kezia went into his room. He looked at every detail of his room. Better and more refreshing. This time in the room was also on display Kezia photo as a child with Eliana, Martin and his late brother. “Pah, zia make coffee huh?” haggard Kezia turned to look at Martin.

Martin nodded. Eliana immediately approached Kezia and helped him prepare the coffee.

“Thank God, still giving me a chance to see my daughter..” softly Martin while looking at Kezia who is engrossed in making coffee in the kitchen with Eliana.

The atmosphere of the school is not as crowded as usual, because today only 3rd grade children who are UN. Martin helped Kezia get out of the car and put her in a wheelchair.

“You're ready baby?” Martin asked who was kneeling before Kezia.

“Iya pah...” sahut Kezia no doubt at all.

“Okeyy goodluck yaa.. later afternoon pick up again.” Martin said as he grabbed and kissed Kezia's head. Kezia nodded with a smile.

Martin grabbed onto Kezia's wheelchair handle and pushed it slowly. But from a distance, someone ran towards Kezia and Martin.

“Good morning om, morning key.” greet Arland politely.

“Good morning son Arland. Already arrived at school apparently.”.

“Iya... Can I help you get Kezia to om class?” tawar Arland sprightly.

“Oh okay, om titip zia same you yaa... It will be noon to pick up. Hope your exams are good.” Martin patted Arland on the shoulder proudly. Apparently, the young man before him was indeed very reliable.

"Ready om!" sahut Arland immediately

Kezia waved her hand towards Martin who passed by in his black sedan car.

“You're ready for key?” Arland stared at the black bead in Kezia's eyes warmly.

“Yaaa.. Come on I have gag patiently wanted a test.” said Kezia while clenching his hands vigorously in front of Arland.

“Yes god...your spirit is very terrible..” replied Arland while chuckling. Kezia only returned with a smile.

Arland pushed Kezia's wheelchair towards the classroom. Several pairs of students' eyes were in the classroom corridor, looking at Kezia who had just entered the school. Kezia turned his head towards Arland, there was a hint of doubt in Kezia's heart when he saw the gazes of the people around him. Kezia tried to smile and Arland replied with all his heart.

"They care about you." said Arland, who wanted to strengthen Kezia. Kezia just nodded and looked back to the front and convinced himself that he was okay.Indeed, we can not guess what thoughts are in the heads of those who look at him but we can manage the mind we always want to think about the positive things that Arland does.

“Hay key..” say hello Difa when Kezia has arrived at the mouth of his class. “How are you doing?” Tanya Difa while taking Kezia cipika-cipiki.

“Alhamdulillah I have improved..” Kezia said cheerfully.

“Fa, I tipped kezia yes..”

“Dong sure...Lo calm down..” welcome Difa. “Ayo key..” Difa replaces Arland pushing Kezia wheel. Arland waved his hand at Kezia, and Kezia did the same.

Not long after, the entrance bell rang. All the students were in their seats. An examination supervisor entered with a thick brown envelope in his hand.

“Good morning kids...”.

“Pagii bu...”.

“The test will start soon. Please turn off the phone and prepare your stationery.” Pinta Ratih who was then in charge of being the supervisor of the exam.

He tore off a small portion of the envelope and took out a matter sheet. Class leader Kezia came forward and helped share the matter.

“Please to start working, remember to do it carefully..” Ratih said.

“Iyaaa bu...” say to the students at the same time.

The students began to focus on the work before him. They read the instructions carefully and the atmosphere began to calm with the students who began to focus on working on the problem.
