Ten minutes had passed, mother seemed to have tired of crying while removing all the poison. His pain, the wound that made him unable to feel happiness, his disappointment was too great for Nanda.
As the eldest son, Damar can feel how the burden that had been borne by his mother. He still assesses the natural complaints of his mother. He had never known his mother's family, nor his father. From the rumors he had on his shoulder, his mother's family expelled his mother for marrying his father. His father's family never cared about his parents' marriage. Their existence is not something important, plus his father never took the initiative to introduce them to his family. As Damar knows, his family is just his parents and his three younger siblings.
"Bun, I'm sorry we haven't been able to make your mother happy." Damar knelt before his mother who was sitting in a chair. "Damar is not as good as the sisters, but Damar promises to try to make Mother happy. Likewise with the sisters, they also certainly want to make your mother happy, repaying all the services of the mother even though it will not be possible to be reciprocated. We don't want to see Mother sad. During this time Damar often burdened Mother and Damar regretted it."
The regret expressed by Damar, although it has not been able to be a medicine for Bu Anis, but enough to make him relieved. The forty-five-year-old woman only sighed, with a limp step she entered her room without saying a word. Damar knows his mother is very disappointed, even more than the disappointment felt compared to his cancellation he married Rana.

Damar to the terrace of the house, there was Nanda who was still crying accompanied by Dita. Damar approached, Nanda who saw the arrival of his brother immediately scattered in his arms. "Bang, sorry Nanda!" Sobs Nanda.
"Sorry for what, Nan? Your courage is not your fault. You know, for education problems you will never mess around, you must have tried as much as possible." Damar said wisely.
"Not .. not that." Nanda is speechless, but Damar thinks his sister is guilty of disappointing her mother. Damar understands and accepts. He was also in that position, even though he was earnest. Again, man can only plan, God determines the end result. Maybe this is God's way of reminding Nanda not to be arrogant with her intelligence.
"You can't worry, even if you haven't been able to enter a state college, you can still be a doctor. You can still study in private. Currently many private campuses are no less good." Damar said to his sister.
"But private college is expensive, bang." Complain Nanda.
"Why not, if his provision to be a doctor will surely love God the way "Answer Damar, strengthen his sister even though he actually does not have a picture of where he will get the cost from. She only tried to surrender to Allah, relying only on Allah in every affair and it was guaranteed by Dita who supported her husband's proposal.

As Damar proposed, Nanda re-enlisted at five private campuses. Starting from the best rated campus, even rivaling the state campus to a campus whose quality is ordinary with accreditation is still C. Nanda took all the entrance exams in earnest. He wanted to treat his mother's disappointment by studying hard. Nanda wanted to prove to his mother that he was still a child to be proud of. One failure is a valuable lesson for him.
Where's mischief? Nanda's face paled, but still tried to think hard. He felt he could do the entrance exam very well. Nanda was sure there was no answer he could not figure out. He can all. But why is the result like this? What's wrong? Nanda was confused again.
This smart girl who was usually always optimistic was now the opposite. He became pessimistic, even feeling his future was bleak. This year he will not be able to continue his education in the state or private sector. It will only be unemployed.
A white coat would only be a dream he could never achieve. Nanda was devastated, he even lost his life spirit. All the scorn even the words of his mother who humbled himself at the round press. He thinks himself like that. Only a useless child, stupid, arrogant, has no future even useless, just a burden of life. Even his mother had the heart to tell him to die!
"Bun, don't talk like that. Poor Nanda!" Damar said firmly. He was forced to return home from work after calling Sigit, only to mediate the quarrel of his mother and sister. More precisely his mother who called Nanda, even though his sister had no resistance at all.
"Yes Bun, Nanda is going to die" Nanda replied in a soft, barely audible voice.
"Maan!" Damar immediately hugged his sister who was still silent but slowly sobbed. "It's okay to fail now, there must be a silver lining. God willing, you can be a doctor. Brother is sure of that. You know you're the smartest brother, you're the pride in our family. You're the one who's gonna raise the family degree after you become a doctor." Damar said, cheering up his sister.
"Not Bang, Nanda is just a family burden." she started sobbing.
Instead of pity, his mother cursed. "Even, so from the beginning do not be arrogant. Look at it now. You are just a burden on the family. Just embarrasses this family. You are just like your father. Loadings. Loadings. The burden!" Shouted Bu Anis, while pointing at his daughter's face with explosive emotions.
"Bun, please," asked Damar again.
"What Mar? You just ignore this garbage boy. Family burden. He will not know how difficult it is for people to find money, he only adds to the burden. Hiiihihhh, mother is very upset, seeing her face is like seeing your father's face. Sibenan that life has ruined my life! Why siiih? Why is the shadow never lost. At least he also brought all his children who became the burden of my life!" Ms. Anis started to mess up. His emotions are out of control. Damar to the point of confusion calmed his mother. While Nanda continued to cry because of her mother's sharp words
"Shut up!" Finally Damar shouted to stop all this commotion. He's really dizzy. His shoulders were tired, his weight was heavy. He was confused to see his mother and sister. They were once two people who were like twins in nature and attitude, now on the contrary, like a mortal enemy where his mother attacked Nanda all out. Then what should it be now?
