Contrition

At Nadia's family home...

Geck... Geck... Geck...

"Nadia, let's have dinner. Mother has prepared your favorite food" exclaimed Ratmi's mother as she knocked on her son's bedroom door.

After a few minutes of waiting, there was still no sound of his son answering his call. Ratmi's mother frowned in surprise because not usually the child was not out of the room all day after the incident last afternoon. Even her son missed his lunch. Since there was no sign of her son opening the door, Ratmi's mother tried to open the door to Nadia's room which turned out to be unlocked. He went in and kept calling his son.

"Nadias... You where?" exclaims Ratmi's mother who started to panic.

No sign of the presence of the child makes bad thoughts float in the brain of Ms. Ratmi. He was worried that what he was thinking came true, especially seeing the atmosphere of the child's room that looked dark when he entered it and the bed that still looks neat. Ratmi's mother walked towards the bathroom and there was no sign of Nadia there, then she headed for the wardrobe of the child. Ratmi's mother opened it and...

Degs...

His heart stopped beating, though, his legs seemed limp and could no longer stand until he had to hold hands on the wall near him when he saw his son's wardrobe that looked messy even a little clothes left. The assumption is true, if the only daughter was gone from the house because the backpack she gave and some of Nadia's favorite clothes were no longer in the closet.

"Dad... Father.." cried Mother Ratmi calling her husband who was waiting at the dinner table.

Deno's father who heard the screams from Ratmi's mother who came from Nadia's room immediately ran towards there. When he got there, he saw Ratmi's mother who had been sitting in front of Nadia's wardrobe with a sobbing cry.

"What's up, ma'am?" frantically Deno's father asked his wife and took her into his arms.

"Huhuhu Nadia went, yeah. Nadia left the house" said Ratmi's mother, sobbing in her husband's arms.

"No way Nadia left the house, ma'am. Maybe he again came out with his friend but did not care about us" said Deno's father with positive thinking.

"Where maybe Nadia went to her friend's house if her favorite clothes were not in her closet. Not even a big backpack. It's all our fault for pushing too hard on Nadia's marriage to Parno, well" Ms Ratmi said with great guilt.

Deno's father who heard his wife's words was of course shocked and looked at Nadia's closet nanar who already looked disheveled. They both felt guilty for their son. Forcing the will of those who ended up his son recklessly went away from home.

"Why did you leave when we haven't told you about the annulment, son? Why are you even desperate to leave us both old?" mumbling Ratmi's Mother.

"Calm down, mom. We look for Nadia together then after meeting we apologize to our children" said Deno's father to calm his wife even though his heart and mind were in a state of turmoil.

***

Nadia has now arrived in a city that she will live in to start her new life. A city that is the capital of a country. Here a lot of tall buildings towering with a lot of flats around it. A city called a metropolitan city with all its problems, especially the problem of unemployment. Lots of regional children who depend on life in this city even though their expectations are not as beautiful as reality. More and more migrants are arriving but not balanced with job growth. I don't know why Nadia chose this city to start her new life.

Nadia immediately looks for a contract for her temporary residence while looking for a job that is suitable for her. Shortly walking, Nadia saw a grandmother sweeping her yard and on the doorstep there was also a "contracted" sign". What a lucky first for Nadia because she did not need to go all the way to find a boarding house or contract.

"Excuse me, Grandma" greeted Nadia politely to a grandmother who was still busy with her activities.

"What's up, cu?" ask Grandma who then stopped her activities.

"You ask, grandma. Is this house really being contracted? Can I meet the owner?" nadia asked with a friendly smile.

"Yes, cu. It's my own grandmother's house, who wants this right-hand granny because it's the left-hand one for my grandmother" she replied with a smile.

"Gee... Then it's a coincidence that Nadia wants to find a contract, Grandma. How many months is this, Grandma? Oh yes know my name Nadia, Grandma" said Nadia while introducing herself.

"It's only cheap if the contract at the grandmother's place. 700 thousand only per month. Oh yes Nadia, also introduce my name Darmi or commonly called Grandma Darmi" said Grandma Darmi.

"Ready, grandma. That's why I took the contract" Nadia broke up after knowing how much her one-month contract cost.

"Yes let's go in first" invited Grandma Darmi who then walked ahead of Nadia.

Nadia follows Grandma Darmi to enter the house she will live in. Grandma Darmi showed me some of the rooms in the house that Nadia could use. Starting from the bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom.

"Thank you grandma" Nadia said to Grandma Darmi after she finished showing all the rooms.

"Sama-sama, I hope to stay here. If you need anything, you can go to Grandma's place. If that's the old granny" said Grandma Darmi and was adopted by Nadia.

After Grandma Darmi left, Nadia immediately cleaned the items in her bag to the closet that was already available. There are not many things that he needs to tidy up because indeed he only brings the important ones. After finishing the business, he immediately put his body on the mattress to increase energy so that tomorrow he can get more energy to find a job.

"Welcome to a new life, hopefully in this city I can get real happiness" muttered Nadia who then closed her eyes and ventured into her dreamland.
