It was early in the day when I got up to get ready for work. I have to get up early so as not to get sick. I have no one else to rely on, so I have to do it. I have to take care of my younger siblings. "Sister!" I looked away from the mirror. I let go of my comb and approached Leo, who had awakened from his sleep. When I sat down next to him, he immediately grabbed my neck and hugged me. So I smiled and stroked his back. "I'm fine," he said, and I sighed. "I know I can't take you, youngest child. 'Don't worry. I'll leave it to Sister Ria,' I said, patting him on the back so he could sleep again." I heard a rustling noise coming from downstairs and knew my father was there. My father must have been drunk and on drugs again. I quickly picked up Leo and stood up. I also approached Cathy and shook her up. "Oh, get up! Get dressed and let's go. Daddy's here already," I said to her, and at the same time she heard Daddy breaking plates downstairs and quickly stood up. I put Leo to bed first, took his school uniform, and then dressed him. After that, I hurriedly packed his clothes in my bag and ran away with my school bag. "Gee! No more food! 'What a life!' I heard my father yell and I closed my eyes. "Hey, Emma ! You'll definitely taste me if you open it! Useless!" he cried, slamming the door. "Come on! Get off the window," I said. Cathy grabbed her luggage and her school bag and headed for the window we were about to pass. A wooden window that we can pass through because it can only be folded and is also suitable for humans to pass through. I picked up my Leo and my luggage again. I always have to run away with Cathy and Leo because I don't want to go home with their bruised bodies. I don't have enough money to buy even a small apartment, so I wish I could move out of my father's apartment. “It has to be cheap and within budget. So I'm doubling down on my money so I can save it and leave my father's power completely. I'm sorry but I hope he's not our father anymore. As Leo and I descended the stairs leading to the window. You can breathe easily. I immediately invited her to visit Ria’s house. “Sister…” Cathy called my name as we walked. "Hmm..." I saw her walking with me. "Sister, can I stop studying? I'm just looking for a job so I can help you," she said hesitantly. "Oh, if you don't want to get mad at me, don't do that. So I will work hard so that you and Leo can go to a good school. I'm going to be in big trouble after I graduate, so could you help Leo with his studies? If you have completed your education, you can easily find a job. "You're not like me, who's still in sixth grade and doesn't have a decent job," I warned her as she walked with his head bowed. Cathy is only 15 years old and we are 5 years apart. This Leo is only 5 years old. “Because you are ashamed, I know that you are tired of studying and cannot buy all that we want. I just want to help you," she said, making me smile. "Who said I'm tired? I'm a superwoman, sister?" Even if you work all night and pass out from hunger, it's okay. Look how sexy I am, right? ' I said, looking up here, stopping and hugging myself. "I love you, sister. Thank you, we have a sister like you," she said. pushed back. I laughed. "Of course Sister loves you too, so I don't have you." Forget . And pursue what you want to improve in your learning. "When you're done, you'll be rewarded for your fatigue and hunger," I told her. "Yes sister, I promise you'll be proud of me and like I said before, I'll take you to the beautiful places and fancy restaurants of your dreams," she said, and I was stoked. smiled. "Don't make any promises... I'd like you to, do you understand?" Ria’s house is only a few meters away, so when I spoke to her again, there was a car parked there, and this man must have gone home. I've been friends with Ria for many years, and I know her work isn't great, but she doesn't criticize her. She too has lost the strength of his family and she is lonely. She wanted to marry her to her rich old man, but she didn't want that and decided to make her run away. She's not a storyteller, so I don't know if she still communicates with his parents. "Ria! Ria!" I called from outside his house. After a while the light came on and after a while she came there and opened the door. When Ria came out wearing nothing but a nightgown, I immediately covered Cathy and Leo’s eyes so I could see almost all of her. "what the hell? Ria! Are you going out looking like that? 'I didn't listen to her. She said, "Oops! I'm sorry," and quickly walked in, so we both took off our blindfolds. I let out a sigh of relief as Ria came out again in a big jacket. "Why are you wearing it? “You still walk like that, don’t you?” I said, and we approached her before placing the bag on the wooden bench on his patio. "You know... I have to have fun and make money," she said. I shook my head. "Oh, did those two come first? Are they coming in?" she asked. "Yes, I'm sorry I fell again. She can't leave Cathy at her house and her dad might hit her again." No one but you can take care of her. "Why don't you want to leave your father's house?" "You know we don't have enough money to rent an apartment," I said, stroking Leo's hair as she leaned over. “If you want medal money, come with me. "I don't want that. I have no problem working hard for less money, but in our clean way. I still maintain my honor, and my brothers and sisters with their dirty work." I don't want to support you," I told him bluntly. "Hey! What you said made me more optimistic. After all, unlike you, who is still honorable and clean, I am already a sinner and unclean. Huh, me? “Life is dirty and there is nowhere to go,” she said, and I sighed. "Don't underestimate yourself. I'm not criticizing you because that's your job." “I know you can do this because of Elton,” I said, pointing to her son Elton. Elton was impregnated by her husband. There she saved money and murdered various men to fight in court for rights to Elton. "I don't know if I can get Elton, Emma. Especially when they found out I was a prostitute. "I have no right to take Elton because my job is dirty," she said through tears. I went over to her and hugged her. "Ria, fight for your son. It's not your current situation that determines whether or not you can be a good mother. Parenting is not a profession." But how much do you love your son and want to take care of Elton. Please tell them about it. I assure you that you will have a son. " "Thank you for your advice, Emma. Thank you for still being there and not judging me. 'You're the only one by my side when I'm in trouble,'" she said, giving her a hug. She let go and stared at me. “So you can always fight with your brothers here,” she added, which made me laugh out loud. "The drama is over. Of course, I'm your best friend, so I won't judge you for whoever you are," I told her, making her laugh. "Okay, that's right. I nodded and looked at Cathy and Leo. "I will go. Please be careful when entering the school. And Mr. Leo, you go home right after school, right? ' I asked, turning to Cathy. Because she was Mr. Leo's eldest son. "Yes sister, take care of yourself and don't starve," she said, and I nodded, smiled, and kissed their foreheads. I walked a few feet and then turned and waved at them. They waved too, so I left the squatter's house and left again to go to work.
