My Mother's Tears
Part 12 Visiting the house of Roro Kedasih

“You stupid base Mang..! come on kids bring Maryati with us.”

“No! I don't want to!” said Maryati while holding her brother's hand tightly.

“She doesn't want Ma'am,” replied one of Roro's children.

“Pull his hand, when need to drag him.”

Hearing his mother's orders, Roro's children try to pull Maryati's hand, until the little girl is released from her brother.

Maryati was screaming hysterically, she thrashed in the arms of Roro's eldest son. Roro must still not care about it.

The taste of haru can not be contained anymore, all Aryan employees cry hysterically, as well as Sulastri and Maryati, they were separated by their own aunt.

“Grandfather, please snatch Maryati from them Cake,” pinta Sulastri plead with Mang Burhan.

“Grandpa can not son, they are all strong, Grandpa helpless dear.”

“Then how about Dad's message to Grandpa.”

“Grandfather also can not do anything, son, huhuhu..!”.

Burhan was crying sadly, the pain in his heart at that time could not be expressed in any way.

After that day, all of Arya's employees seemed stunned, they could no longer work like the days they had gone through.

All assets owned by Arya at auction by Roro both in the form of plantations, houses and all shops owned by Arya, all sold by Roro.

Meanwhile, Sulastri continued to cry at the thought of his beloved sister. Mang Burhan along with Tini, trying to persuade him, so that Sulastri did not take revenge on his aunt.

Because all the assets owned by Arya were sold, Mang Burhan with Tini and Sulastri was forced to leave the house, not a few treasures were left for Sulastri, all of them were taken out by Roro.

“Now, we start living from the beginning again son,” Burhan told Lastri.

“Good Cake, as long as it's still with Grandpa, I don't mind kok.”

“But Lastri will stay in a very small hut.”

“By under the bridge I want a cake, as long as it stays with the two of you.”

“Oh dear,” said Burhan while hugging the innocent body of Lastri.

“Then, let's go back to Grandpa's village aja.”

“Good cake.”

Armed with the potluck, they both came out of the luxurious house.with Mang Burhan, Sulastri seemed to live a happy life, the little girl was very smart, she was very smart, he knew that Mang Burhan had nothing for him.

For that, Lastri never demanded much from his adoptive father.

Burhan and Tini's affection poured out on Sulastri, they looked so happy, so that Lastri could forget the sadness of his heart.

Together with Burhan and Tini, Sulastri was able to get Education in the nearest Elementary School. Although life is simple and not as luxurious as living with his parents, but Lastri seemed to enjoy it.

In the front porch of Burhan's house, it appears that Lastri often sat alone, when reprimanded by his Grandfather, Lastri often answered nervously, as if someone was being covered. Burhan understood that.

“Do you remember your sister son?” burhan asked Lastri.

“Iya Kek, Long time Pastri never met him, what is he doing now huh Kek?”

“Now son, Grandpa himself does not know, what he is working on at this time, it does not feel like we have been separated from him for almost a year.”

“Where, if we go to Bi Roro's house, Kek. Who knows we can see Maryati there.”

“By also, later if Grandpa has time we will visit your sister there ya Nak.”

“Why do I have to later anyway, Cake. Why not just now.”

“Now?”

“Yes, now Cake, come on, Lastri has missed Maryati so much, come on Cake.!”

“Well, all right, now, try Lastri ask permission first with Grandma, if she allows it, then we will go now.”

“True Cake?"

“Iya darling.”

“Alright, then, Lastri will ask permission first with Grandma.”

When Lastri was about to meet his Grandmother, Tini suddenly appeared from behind the door, while carrying a plate of wet bread Pastri's favorite.

“Grandmother allow it,” replied Tini while smiling widely.

“Wah..! is it true that our ngizinin grandmother met Maryati?”

“True son, remember carefully on the road, keep hold of Grandpa's hand, never you let go.”

“Good Nek,” replied Pastri cheerfully.

Must walk from Burhan house to Roro house is very far, Lastri did not mind, during the trip, Lastri never complained tired in the least, as long as he met his favorite sister, Lastri so sincere.

Along the way, Lastri seemed silent, not a word coming from his lips. Burhan, who saw his adopted daughter was silent, tried to ask.

“Lastri tired nak?”

“Ngak Kek, Lastri is not tired kok.”

“If we are tired, we rest for a while.”

“No need Kek, if we rest, later we can go to see Maryati.”

“But it's still day baby.”

“We continue aja Kek, Lastri is still strong kok.”

Hearing the answer from his daughter's mouth, Burhan could not do anything, he finally obeyed all the wishes of his adopted daughter.

“Is the house still far away Kek?”

asked Lastri who looked so weak.

“Have a son, just ahead there, look at that tall building, must be your Aunt's home.”

“Ooo.”

“Is Lastri still able to walk?”

“Still Cake.”

“If Lastri can't do it anymore, let Grandpa carry aja.”

“No need for Kek, Lastri is still strong,”, Lastri replied as he continued walking, must be weak.

After the two of them arrived in front of Roro's house which was plastered like a palace, Lastri immediately hung on the fence of the house.

Burhan who saw his adopted daughter helpless, he immediately hugged her, Burhan saw the face of Lastri was very pale.

“You why baby, Grandpa wanted to carry, you refused it, now Lastri is very weak right?”

“Ngak Kek, Lastri is very strong really. Where's Maryati ya Kek, why doesn't she look?”

“Maybe she's still inside your Aunt's house, goodies times.”

“How do we call it Kek?” asked Lastri not to understand.

“Tuh, there is a bell, we pull the bell, then the sound will ring inside the house.”

After the bell rang, then a twelve-year-old boy appeared and approached the tightly closed gate.

“You find who?” ask the boy to Burhan.

I'm looking for your mother son, is she home?” burhan asked the boy.

“There, but he's busy again, if there's no interest just go, this house does not accept beggars like you!”

Hearing the boy's words, Burhan and Lastri's heart ached deeply, had not seen each other for years, but the Roro children's attitude had not changed, they were all rude and arrogant.

“How arrogant are you! just so you know yes, in your palace-like house, my father's money is there.”

“Shut up! it's good you're talking, who are you?”
