My Life Journey
39. family gathering
'' don't you want to go to work anymore?" ask me.
" no more holidays than red dates!"
" Ooh"
I rarely watch dates, unless I'm fit for work waiting for payday, patas andre and ari also have school holidays, it turns out red dates.
mbak mia was never long when returning home, at most two days have left again, so I asked why not go to work, because it has four days mbak mia at home.
" andre what class is he in now?" ask me.
" i'm in sixth grade!" answer andre.
" if you're ari?"
" i'm in third grade!" reply ari.
I never asked what class they were in, sometimes I just asked them what school they were in, because I was rarely home either, even when I was home I never talked about school,
usually we just chat about mind, who want to buy this, want to be happy mother in this way, we are always excited about the story of wishful thinking, I don't know when it will come true.
" my shoes are broken! I said I don't have any money!" said ari.
" later we buy, there's still a little money!
" do you want to buy shoes?" ask me.
" no shoes I can still wear, I just buy books said Andre.
they never ask or complain, while they can still wear it they will use it, andre the person is quiet if not bought or offered he will not ask, andre the person is quiet if not bought or offered he will not ask, in contrast to ari if ari friendly people like to joke if again need something must say whether bought or not, but he also never demands.
" do you have money to buy shoes?" tanya ibuk arrived.
" there's a little buk enough to buy shoes!"
"the money should not be exhausted just leave it for you to hold!"
" yes buk!"
so today we can get together, can joke, used to be a child we often spend time together, but when we were adults we rarely get together like now.
the next day I took her to the market, to buy shoes, we took a bus to get to the market.
after arriving at the market I told Ari to choose the shoes she liked.
" which shoes did you choose?" ask me.
" bentar mbak ari choose first huh?
" yes" I was waiting to pick my shoes.
" this one is just mbak!" said ari.
" sure that one?"
"yes, just this!"
then I pay for the shoes I have chosen.
" how many buk?" ask me while thrusting the shoes chosen ari.
" oh.that's 70 thousand mbak replied the mother of the shoe seller.
ari never demanded expensive goods, which is important to be used and durable, because if you do not have to go back and forth to buy again, we all realize that we are not rich, we are not rich, so it doesn't have to be stylish like other friends, after I pay for shoes I look for a bookstore.
" let's go find a bookstore first!
" yes, mbak!
now that I'm at the bookstore, I bought one park book and all the stationery, so they don't have to buy anymore.
