A Piece of the Past In White Grey
The Caterpillar Doll of Gara

The next night after dinner, Tasha seemed to rush into the room. He no longer has the passion to work in a boutique. The shadow of Gara in his small room made Tasha step undo the intention to enter the room. He went into the child's room. His eyes scanned the mattress, toys, study tables, and photos of the child on the wall. Tasha's tears fell out of her mind and dropped her tears. Because he did not leave, he just wanted to enjoy time with Raga, his father. Like the stories of his friends at school who are so enthusiastic about telling their vacation time with the papah.

Often Gara is sad because he does not have an exciting story about the papah. He only has a story of walking, working, playing, taking pictures with his brother. Of course envy appeared in the boy's mind.

“Why doesn't it feel like mommy is willing to share you, Gara? We live together without anyone else. It feels heavy sharing you with them.” The expression of Tasha's heart he uttered when looking at the cheerful photo of the child.

He slowly embraced the photo. Tasha is very afraid if it turns out that Gara will be more comfortable with Raga than she is. If it was because of her parents, it was Tasha's usual feeling.

However, the presence of Raga and the family makes Tasha a little unsettled. He was afraid that his position would be taken by those who had just come in his life and also the child.

“Yeah, Tasha. Not going abroad.” The sound was heard along with the door of the room that was opened from outside.

Indri who was just about to ask the driver to deliver a pillow of caterpillar bolster favorite Gara was surprised to see the child so sick crying hugging the photo in front of his chest.

Tasha did not make any sound at all. Indri to shake his head.

He asked the waiter to deliver the Gara caterpillar pillow to the driver and then he himself approached Tasha to calm the child.

While at the Dahlan residence, all were enthusiastic to see Gara who laughed cheerfully while riding the body of the papi. He continued to chuckle amused to see Raga transformed into a horse that walked the impression here. Behind the opa also became a horse chasing them.

“How to, handle Nak. Later fall.” shouted Rima reminded.

The middle-aged woman continued to perpetuate the rare moment with her mobile phone. He even took a selfie. Really presence Gara very reviving home. As long as Raga grew up there were no more voices of children in the house. And Dahlan and Rima are looking forward to the moment.

Being present brings happiness to all of them.

“Dad, Raga, already. Because I'll be tired again later. Come eat the snacks. Because, this is a snack that Gara asked for has become.” The three men came to enjoy it all.

Raga rubbed the child's forehead which seemed to sweat just from laughing endlessly.

Hearing that Raga did not immediately agree. He looked at his parents who understood the situation better.

“Kunny Oma, swim later after school holidays Because how? Gara has to rest a lot. I don't get sick anymore and get his hands injected again. Later if it's healed because say whatever you want. Well now mumpung again in told the doctor to rest, Gara wrote tuh anything that Gara wants to do so let's not forget. Isn't it uncle?” Raga nodded.

Now Gara calls him Uncle. It is sometimes difficult to tell a child who still does not understand. Just some time Raga was happy to hear her son calling papi. It has changed again.

Amidst the excitement of the Dahlan family, suddenly the waiter ran out to hear the sound of a car entering the courtyard of the house.

“What is Tasha?” muttered Raga was curious and very much hoped that her guess was correct.

Waiting until the waiter came back inside.

“What's up, Bi?” rima asked astonished to see the waiter carrying something in a paperbag.

“This pillow Mr. Gara, Madam.” he said while wanting to bring to the room Raga. However, Gara first voiced.

“Oma, Just go to the room. Aunt, can you ask for a pillow?” The aunt gave the pillow to the owner.

Raga was stunned to see her son walking with the waiter towards Raga's room while hugging the caterpillar doll. The joy on Gara's face suddenly disappeared seeing his doll. He walked without looking at Raga as he passed the papi.

Upon arrival in the room, Gara immediately lay hugging the doll with a face that bends sadly.

“How to miss Brother, Gara miss mamah and papah too.” he said in his heart.

The pleasure he got in this house was in fact unable to make him able to shift the names of the three important people in his heart. Slowly staying in the room finally bead the handsome boy's eyes pooled a sad liquid.
