A Piece of the Past In White Grey
Chapter 2

“Where are you, Agatha? It's dark outside?” The question made me stop my footsteps when I was about to leave the house.

I saw in the direction of the television room Gara sitting watching while holding her phone.

“You to Sela's house, want to come?” ask me because Gara does know my female friends.

For none of them have not pursued my handsome brother. Every time they hear Gara coming home to Indonesia, they will all reasoned to invite me to group work or even just a regular meal at home while watching.

“No, come.” My hand was suddenly pulled by him out of the house.

“Loh Gar, he said no. Why pull my hand?” many wonder.

“Already, go in there.” My body was pushed into the car he opened while I heard my sister yelling at Mami who came out of the house looking at us.

“Agatha? The gara? Where to?” Tasha's mom yelled asking us.

“Ngantar Agatha to her friend's house, Mi.” replied Gara who also yelled.

Oh so I'll be taken to Sela's house. Finally I just lowered the car window and waved at Mami.

Mami Tasha who shook her head saw her two children back into the house. It was already dark when the time was seven o'clock at night.

It's sunday night. Where I made a pact with my friends to gather together at Sela's house.

“Still not kapok about yesterday?” ask Gara. My head immediately turned to Gara who was focused on driving.

I'm upset, of course I feel. How could he ask that while I was so traumatized that even my phone no longer dared to open because the man still sent me messages several times to apologize.

I deliberately chose silence without saying anything to Gara. Because I don't want my brother to cause trouble out of his anger.

“Kok is so anyway? Well obviously kapok, Gar. Very nasty.” I bent my face. Where it actually makes Gara rub rough my face.

Long story short, we arrived in front of Sela's house. The magnificent yet more magnificent house of Papi and Mami that we lived in.

I am grateful that besides having such a good family and dear to me my life is also so fulfilled. Tasha didn't even think twice about buying me a new car when I was in college. In High School, I was always in the driver's shuttle because Mami Tasha was worried about my social life which could cause reckless driving.

Papi Raga is not wrong to choose a wife like Mami Tasha. Even I myself often mourn the treatment of my biological Mother who can put me in the midst of the warmth of the Mami and Papi families.

I really don't know anything. I only know that Mom died while suffering from cancer.

“You're in.” My daydreams were broken when Gara said.

I waved my hand after saying thank you.

“You are well,” I saw Because I smiled at you. I met up with my friends tonight to make an appointment to watch a barbeque together at Sela's house.

“Hai everyone..” my sap with cheerful face. If I had met them I would have been really happy. At least tonight this week Mami and Papi at home are also happy because the house is quiet.

“Wah cepet very coming? Aren't you looking out for your Mami, Agatha? Where is agatha? Remember not to be fast. Don't exceed 80 speed well?” Dita mimicked the style Mami Tasha said to me.

They all know how much Mama loves me. Cannot be expressed with words. I'm really the luckiest kid.

There Veni, Sela, Dita, Endah, and Sisil laughed at me. Let them not be mocked for bad things. But because of Mami Tasha's great affection for me.

“Well it is not. There was Gara who sent me.” I replied casually but immediately got a response from all of them.

“Gara? Where is she?” I had expected that they would be hysterical by hearing my brother's name. My eyes rolled lazily hearing their questions.

“Agatha, let's try calling Gara here. Call me, spit,”

“Eitz wait. This is why call Gara anyway? It's the night of the week we collect yah?” i'm firm.

I shook my head to see the lethargic faces of those who were once so excited.

“Udah deh, life is still long right? Wait for my sister to finish college. Time want you guys to stick around? Later no longer kelar-kelarnya college.” said I moved to the place of grilling meat.

“Basic y'all on love in droves well?” my mouth is not out of thought.

I admit my sister is very handsome. It's the perfect blend of Mami and Papi that's very mismatched. Even the men who like me don't escape the help of Papi Raga's handsome face. That's why I have a pretty face. True said people, if we are long in the family of others gradually there will be a resemblance on our faces in the person. Many times people think that I am the biological child of Papi Raga. Although it's not like that. Only Mamahku had ever been a former Papi, but not with my origins which turned out to be the son of a mama and another man.

Until suddenly my activity of grilling meat stopped when I heard the sound of a cell phone ringing.

“Tha, Because right? Cepetan lift.” ask my friend.

I just sighed hearing my friend Endah say. A sense of regret when I had to mention Gara's name. Must be a long business tonight for the next few days. As long as Gara hasn't come home for sure they'll go back to acting crazy.

The one who called was Mami Tasha. Because of my sister because I forgot to tell Mami when I arrived.

“Halo, Yes Mami?” my broom when the call is connected.

“Tha...have you arrived yet? How come you haven't seen Mami? So you're going to Sela's house?”

“Iya it has arrived. Agatha forgot to tell Mami.”, said I who felt guilty about Mami.

After talking to Mami Tasha who gave a lot of messages when I was outside the house, now the call has been cut off.

“Cieeeee Mami's son..” That's the ledge they all threw.

I just smile because I'm Mommy's son.

We all enjoyed the night with a romantic movie that had a lot of funny scenes. The house was so crowded with us. Don't ask where her parents are. Sela is an only child where every Sunday night her parents would date.

Make no mistake even if they are old. But caring for the harmony of the marriage is very important.

Until the time goes on at exactly eleven o'clock in the evening.

“Yah deserted home?” Sela looked moody when we were all going back.

“Yaudah anyway. This is common, Cell. Your parents will be back again. We will also be in search of parents later if we go home overnight.” Dita.

“Iya. Oh yes Sil I go home yah? Are you getting picked up by the driver?” I asked for a ride because I couldn't bear to call Gara to pick me up again.

“Beres, Ta.” We got out of Sela's house.

Where the cars lined up in the yard of Sela's spacious house. However, Sisil's voice made me aware as well.

“Loh Agatha, it's not a car Gara well?” His forehead is pucker deep. My eyes are sharpened to see clearly.

“It looks like.” answered me

We all stepped up until I saw the engine of the car still on and I peeked at the person inside just lying asleep.

“Pak, this car from earlier here?” I asked the security guard.

“Iya, Non. So when Non Agatha entered I asked her why not come in? He said let it wait here aja.” explained Mr. security.

I felt guilty at once. Gara even chose to sleep in the car to take care of his brother who does not know himself. While inside there I was so cool without knowing she was outside.

“Gais, please don't disturb my sister this time. He must have been exhausted from before. I feel guilty.” I cupped my hands to all of them.

“OK deh, we go home yuk.” For the first time they all didn't bother to see Gara. I got into the car and woke Gara up.

“Apaan?” ask when you open your eyes.

“Come down, let me drive the car.” my order but soon rejected.

I am determined to bring the car back home.

“God, why are you so giving me such excellent people in the midst of my presence that it hurts them so much? I was the son of the woman who had hurt Mami Tasha even though in the end all the truth was revealed. If I'm not Papi's son,” murmurs I feel guilty.
