Story In July (End )
Day one - 3

Today there was no activity of any kind that I did just standing on the balcony of my room and then this cool morning breeze touched my face, my eyes sidetracked to a withered stalk of roses.

"Huh.., the flowers wither"

I picked up the kingpin and watered the nearly dead rose. When I was busy watering my plants, my eyes saw a mbok near the fence of my house, maybe he would leave out of curiosity I called him.

"Mmd!" the owner looked up at me and glanced at me.

"Will it?!... Aya naon?!"

"Where are you going?!"

"To market non"

"To the market...?!" I murmured, I thought for a moment.

"Is there anything you want to buy?!"

"the eum.. Old Mbok will not be on the market?!"

"It's not non"

"I'm coming, I'm getting ready for a minute "

"Ooh... Yes non"

I went back into the room to get ready and it didn't take long for me to run out of the room and also down the stairs, as I came down the stairs I passed my mamah.

"Where are you going?!" tanyakanya.

"To the market, same mbok"

"What are you doing?! in the market it's hot, it's smelly, it's noisy again, you've been put at home"

"Hah.. I was there just a little while, anyways I will not be there for days"

"Yeah it's up to you, but be careful in the way"

"Hm... Assalamualaikum"

"Commussalam"

After that I walked away from there and when outside I saw the faithful mbok waiting for me, then I ran to him.

"Yuk!"

"Yes non"

..._o0o_...

"What is half a kilo of cayenne?!" ask mbok.

"Twenty bamboo mums!" pause the greengrocer's mang, then his eyes glanced at me and mbok who came to his merchandise.

"Sok was chosen-picked cheap hilariously ma'am, tuh saleugeur keneh!"

"How many times is this?!" ask the other offenders.

"Thirty bamboo"

"That's.. How expensive is the mang?!" with other mothers.

"ih... Atuh ma'am, from there it's expensive"

"Namah tree 20 rebu"

"Eh.. Mother, or tekor abi bu!"

Come to think of it, the supermarket is more crowded than the mall.. How not, the difference is obvious.

If in the Mall we will not be able to bargain like this, while here between buyers and sellers they do not want to budge each other.

"Heh! can you slide a little?! do not here if you do not want to shop mah, narrow the place of death" quipped the fat-bodied mothers.

My eyes instantly pulsed with what the mothers said and in the end I relented even preferring to leave my place, only for those beautiful, charming and kind mothers.

And again there was one place that caught my attention, without my mother even approaching that place.

"But! how many pinch cakes?" my many.

"Thousand neng!" for a moment I was a little confused because the price was very cheap.

"I bought 10"

"Ready neng!"

Then a few minutes later the cake dealer had completed my order.

"It's neng!"

"So ten thousand huh mang..?" many ensure.

"Yes neng. So ten thousand!"

I gave my money to the vendor of the cake and after giving it I walked over to the mbok while watching the crackle containing the cake pinch, and suddenly...

DUKK...

I accidentally hit someone's back.

"Ah... Sorry I didn't intentionally" I said.

Then she turned her body around, and it turned out she was the Princess, the person I saved 2 days ago.

"Lohs.. Zahwa! who are you here, who are you?!" ask her while wailing.

"Sama mbok" my fingers at a glance.

"You..?"

"Oouh if I'm the same..."

"Put cepet dong! It's hot" interrupted a man who came from behind the princess.

"Eh, Zahwa are you here too?! what's the?!"

"Yes, I just..."

"Buy men... Shopping is bang! people go to the market to shop, even basic nanya that is not important" interrupted the princess.

"Did the main connect ajah already like a cable know not?!"

"Udah keyek cable know not?!" tejek princess.

On the sidelines of their quarrel my eyes were directed to a little girl crying on the side of the road, I ignored the two of them who were fighting and chose to approach the little girl.

"So, what's wrong with you?!" my many.

"Mom, Hiks... Hix... Mother" he said in a pleased tone.

"Where did his mother go...?"

"I don't know.."

With hesitation the little girl nodded her head and I gave her 2 cookies.

I was a little surprised because he ate it so greedily, maybe he was crying but. Why is no one helping him, calming him, or just approaching him.

"Well! whose child is this? your son is Wa?!" asked the princess who was suddenly beside me, hearing that I was upset.

"What he was crying about... He said it's rough" my finger at a glance.

"He was separated from his mother"

"Oouh normal times, I also know how this time your son"

"Judah we find a shady seat first, here is hot" suggested brother Rido, hearing that I nodded and took the little girl's hand.

..._o0o_...

"Want more?!" my many.

Instead of answering, but she was silent, petrified, I thought maybe she was still hungry, but she was ashamed to admit it, I gave her all and she smiled again and ate it.

"Whose name are you?!" ask brother rido.

"Ti-tiara" he replied.

"The name is good" said kaku and brother rido in unison.

My eyes glanced at him then he suddenly turned his eyes and cleared his throat, as if something was in his throat.

For a moment the situation turned awkward and to eliminate this awkward feeling, I also invited the little girl to chat.

"What class is it?" my many.

"You know, Tia Class 1 SD"

"Ouh...., but lok can separate from mamah?!"

"No idea, because I saw a fish. Uh.. Look next to Mama there's nothing"

"Other times if you go to the market or to a crowded place you do not let go of your mama hands well, you do not want to be separated from your mama again?!"

"No, brother"

"Revelation! You must remember well" the little girl I was born with nodded her head.

"Thank you Dad" hearing that I frowned.

"Thank you for what?"

"Thank you for advising me, because the word mamah if there are people who are good advice as much as possible should be accepted" his Jedanya at a glance.

"Because it's for our good"

I flinched a little with his answer and honestly I felt... Envy the little boy who was born to me.

Because his childhood is now filled with positive upbringing from his parents as well as me.

When I was his age every day was always filled with demands, threats, even toxic words from my parents.

Although now they have apologized to me and although now I always try to forget it, but still the shadows always come and haunt me.

Without me noticing my tears coming down on my own I could not hold it anymore, I hid my head behind the little girl and cried in silence.

"Near!" I faintly heard the voice of a woman who was shouting calling out the name of this little girl.

"Mom.." I was a little jolted with what he said.

"Mom!" he shouted, then forcibly removed my hand that was coiled around his stomach, the little girl ran up to his mamah and hugged him.

Roughly, I stood up from my seat and I saw the mama hugging and even kissing all areas of the little girl's face.

Indeed for others who see it maybe it is a very beautiful and full of days.

Yet another is with me who feels every kiss and warmth given by the mother, like a knife slicing through my heart.

"If I could also feel something like that" I murmured very slowly, not long after that I saw the mother approach me and then I quickly wiped my eyes.

"Thank you for helping me" I just smiled.

"Then I say yes..!"

Again, all I did was smile and the mother replied with a smile, and then she left me and Rido.

After the departure of Tiara and her mother not long after that the Princess came to us both.

"Lohs.. Wa! are you crying?!" jedanya.

"Abang! I told you not to make Zahwa cry!"

"Dwelling... What the hell is lo?! my man was dem-diem from earlier. It's a fitnah lo!" the sarcasm by putting on a julid's eyes.

"Well. continue Zahwa why can na.."

"No" as I was, the Princess then looked at me confusedly.

"Where are you from! buy an old drink where to buy it?" sewot kak Rido.

"Kayak who bought out of town aja lo" grumbled Rido.

"They..! you don't know bang!. The fight I made.."

"Hem..hem, handover ah!" sela sis Rido.

On the sidelines of their debate my phone suddenly sounded, I also shifted the green button to answer the phone call.

"Hem.. What's wrong mbok?"

"Where's non? mbok cariin from earlier but did not meet..!"

"Where are you now?"

"Ih... Non mah, mbok nanya non even behind nanya. kumaha ieu tea...?!"

"Yaaa yaa..! we meet at the base ojeg who was just over, mbok, okay?!" jedaku.

"Assynogaic"

"Eh..?! nong.."

Without saying anything else I also closed the call unilaterally "I go home first, assalamualaikum" pamitku, at first glance I saw those who looked at me cengo but I ignored their gaze.

"Wa-Waalaikummussalam" they answered in unison, I walked away leaving them without even saying a word.

Seriate...
