A Relationship
Episode #71

Sarah and Safa came to Yumna, hearing Humita's account of Yumna's condition. When he got closer he was directly aimed at the body of Yumna who was injured. Sarah felt like she failed to be a mother, how could her daughter experience something like this.

"What really happened to you?" Tanya Safa approached towards Yumna.

"Yumna it's okay sister, it's just a small wound" Yumna replied so her brother wouldn't worry.

"So at school, when we want to get in the car suddenly there was a friend of his brother came and pulled his hand while dragging him into the school. Yas and Belva's sister tried to help her sister and wanted to call home, but her friend's sister instead strangled her sister to her neck wound, ma'am" Chirin Yasmin lowered her face.

Yumna only resigned when her sister Yasmin told her the true story.

"What?" They all scream in surprise.

"Sorry mama" Lirih Sarah hugged Yumna in tears and kissed her forehead many times.

Sarah cupped Yumna's cheeks to look at her. Sarah hoped Yumna would speak up and forgive her.

"I'm fine ma" Yumna said a little coldly making Sarah even more saddened by Yumna's attitude towards her.

"Safa help Yumna change clothes" Humita said.

"Nek Yumna can be alone. Oh yes Grandma Yumna came here with Belva she wanted to talk to grandma" Yumna said, turning her conversation towards Belva.

"After this grandma wants you to tell her what happened" Humita replied.

Safa takes Yumna to her room and helps change clothes. While Belva shook Sarah and Humita's hands alternately.

"Sit the Bell" Humita said.

"Emm mistress... " Nervous Belva.

"Mrs? Who are you calling madam?" Humita asked her frown.

Belva was confused as to what to call. Because he thinks he doesn't deserve to call someone who's far from him.

"Call grandma, just like Yumna" she said with a smile.

"Euh, grandma. Belva just wanted to say a lot of thanks, for helping the Belva family. From the start the economy and health of Belva's father, but Belva does not know what to retaliate with. If grandma allows Belva to work here and do not need to be paid as a sign of gratitude Belva" said Belva lowered her head and her eyes glazed over.

Humita approached Belva and sat down beside him. Humita held Belva's hand and raised her chin to look at her.

"Listen grandmother, it should be the grandmother who thanks you for helping Yumna pay the tuition, otherwise, maybe Yumna can not take the exam at school at this time. And you don't have to pay anything back, your job is just to learn and play. Don't sacrifice your teenage years for something as unimportant as work. You can work but later when you are successful, now you have to spend it with your peers" Humita said, stroking Belva's head gently.

"Thank you grandma" Belva said.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

In Yumna's room, Safa is helping Yumna from changing clothes and treating the injured area of the body.

"What actually happened to you? Why are you hurt like this? Who would dare to do this to you?" Safa asked Yumna while treating the wound on Yumna's neck.

"Awww, sister slowly" Yumna grimaced in pain as her wound was treated with Safa.

"Jawab just ask brother. This is also part of my sister who has been slow" Kesal Safa, because Yumna did not answer her question.

"Yumna is okay, sister, is not it common for someone to be bullied at school for trivial things" replied Yumna.

Safa stopped her activities and looked at Yumna. Confused as to what Yumna meant, Safa looked into Yumna's sad eyes and began to glaze over.

"Tell everything to brother, without you having to cover up" Safa said.

"Huh, what should I tell you, brother? Never mind my brother I do not want to discuss what has happened, anyways who have experienced my bully, who hurt me, who hurt me. If I tell you everything, will you be able to heal the wounds I've been through? Can you make me come back without feeling traumatized? What is called trauma can not heal feet, trauma is like paralysis for life. I've resigned my way of life in the future"Jawab Yumna looked at Safa as she shed tears that she could not hold anymore.

"What's wrong with you? Is it because you didn't sleep with your mom?" Tanya Safa held her sister's cheek.

"When I sleep with my mom or not, it doesn't change my outlook on me. I mean, you'd be comfortable sleeping with your sister or Yas, but it's different from me. I feel the affection of mom and dad is greater for you two than I am. But I have never been discouraged by their affection, yet I still have a grandmother who is so worried about my situation" Yumna replied to Safa's gaze.

"So I don't know if you've felt something like that all along. Brother will not demand you to forgive mom and dad for any deliberate or unintentional wrongdoing. You are already big, you also know what is good and not, which is sincere and not, as well as the affection of someone maybe you can also judge all that" Safa said.

"And for the affection of mama and papa, brother does not know his attitude towards us, which brother knows mama and papa affection towards us equally. You may be able to feel that too, but on the other hand you feel the other attitude from them" Safa said.

"Sister just wants to hear from you about the bully problem. If you don't want to talk about it that's okay" Safa said.

"I was bullied because I borrowed a book from the library...... " Yumna's Story.

Yumna recounted all the problems from the SPP money and the books he borrowed. She did not tell him about her so-called disability by Mikayla.

"If your mom or dad hasn't paid your tuition and other needs. Can you say the same brother, sister also have savings for any time of need. The next time you need something, if you are condoning your mom and dad tell your sister, or brother who will come to school to ask what to pay and not" Safa said.

"Yes, sorry Yumna. Yumna has been less open lately. Because maybe our family problems also come and go" replied Yumna.

"It's okay, let's go downstairs for lunch together. Maybe they've all gathered there" Take Safa to Yumna.
