Dusk In Memories
About Lara (7)

The old order did not come. We immediately ate a bowl of chicken noodles in front of us. It's delicious noodles, maybe because it's lager again really, yeah, I thought. I occasionally glanced at Lara. He looks focused on eating chicken noodles.

We finally finished lunch.

"Mo go straight home ato mo stop by where first?" askaku to Lara while walking towards the parking lot of the motorbike.

"Just go home" he replied following me.

I also drove him home. Without stopping anywhere else. Arriving at her house, I want permission to go home even though Lara was stale offering me to stop by her house.

"You want to go in first?" ask Lara.

"When do yes. It's been this afternoon" I said subtly.

"Okay, ati-ati on the street yes" he replied as he passed into the house.

"Eh, Lara" call me.

"What's wrong?" the answer turned towards me.

"May I have no hp ga?" ask me to go back while taking out the phone in my pocket

Without answering, Lara came straight to me and took her phone from my hand. He himself who typed and saved his phone number then immediately returned my phone without saying a word. Just smile and then turn back in.

I finally got the number too. Lara lara, I'm the same as you, my mind with a smile. After that I immediately turned on my motorbike and rushed to go home then changed clothes and immediately collapsed.

*Lara's house

Hmm, hopefully Ega can start diligent school. It's a pity that children like him if they have to drop out of school just because of truant mulu. I have a high dream. I hope he has high dreams too.

In Lara's heart hope. Although he was not an angel who could easily help everyone, but he had hope that at least one of his friends could help him. And he chose Ega.

"Ma, mama has always been my encouragement, my comfort, my best friend. Although it would be difficult to fight alone without my mother, I will try hard to make my dreams come true. So that my mom is proud. My mom is calm there. Lara promises to school diligently, will take care of papa, will always be a favorite child of the obedient mother. Lara kangen ma. Why you have to go so fast, Lara equally papa still need mama" said Lara lyrics while sobbing in the mattress.

Papa Lara who heard from the outside door of her room also shed tears. He had not expected the burden Lara had kept in her heart to be so heavy.

"I think you're okay, son. You still have that sorrow in your heart. Forgive me dear papa. If papa tries harder, maybe mama is still here with us" whispered papa as she passed into her own room.

The house that used to be so warm and full of happiness is now a house full of tears and memories. The house has now lost its heart.

Papa Lara was just an ordinary factory worker. Mama Lara is a tailor. Although the Lara family is a simple family, they never lack love. Their families are very happy. There is no giving up in their dictionary. Lara grew up loving and loving both her parents. That's why now he has a kind and caring nature.

But one year ago, Mama Lara was diagnosed with stage 1 uterine cancer. Initially treatment is done with chemotherapy, hoping to recover soon, but because of the large cost of treatment finally less than the maximum. Chemotherapy is only done when there is money collected. Cancer reached the final stage until finally Mama Lara could not be saved.

Grief enveloped Lara and her papa. But they both try to hide their feelings so as not to hurt each other. Lara tried to strengthen her papa, and vice versa. They just have each other. Although Lara's heart was broken to lose her mother, she knew her father's heart was so crushed to lose his life companion. Lara did not want her father to blame himself just because they had no cost for her mother's recovery.

Since losing her mother, her father has always looked moody, sometimes crying and raving while screaming to blame himself for giving this kind of hard life to his family. And Lara always tried to calm him down.

No one can defeat destiny. That's what Lara always has. It is because of that fate that he wants to fight hard to realize his dream, so that later he and his family can live more decent and not lacking anymore.
