This morning I set off in haste. I woke up late again. Quickly, I spent my bread breakfast this morning. I called my father to take me to school soon. Arriving at the school, 5-minute intervals bell was sounded. I ran to class. Oh yes, there are still many who have not I done my job.

Nina friend sebangkuku already sit in the chair while preparing textbooks. She smiled at me. "Almost too late again Siska?". I just nodded and remembered that I had not done my maths homework. As usual Nina would voluntarily lend books PRnya. "How could I forget homework Sis?" Nina chided me. "Overnight fun playing games so forget homework, Nin.", I cried while continuing to write my homework. "It should be before playing games or viewing TV schoolwork done first, Sis. So that your project is not neglected! ", Nina is always reminding patiently, and as usual I just nodded. Yes. He Nina. Nina is a friend of my best friend at school as well sebangkuku. He would patiently hear laments kesahku when I complained to family and friends. He was so good, even very good. So sincere. Although I was somewhat indifferent to his words of wisdom.

Nina can always drown my anger when I'm upset. And he also who never tired to motivate me to study hard to remember now, we have a class 9 which will soon be UN. "You should be grateful, Sis. Affluent parents and love you. Do not you waste the opportunity that you have. " That advice has always spoken to me Nina. And as usual I just smiled.

Today is July 14 is the birthday of Nina. I have prepared gifts started yesterday. With the savings, I bought Nina school bag, because I saw her bag already looks worn, the color began to fade. I want to surprise this morning, so I go in the morning. If Nina usually departing first, this time I want I the first to sit in class while waiting. But until the clock reads incoming Nina did not appear well. I began to fret. And until the end of class Nina really does not appear. I asked my friends why Nina was not entered. My friends no one knows.

Until a week Nina does not go to school, and I regret not ever ask her home address. I do not know his phone number. I Have No Idea. In this era of globalization there are still people do not have handpone. That's Nina is a simple, sincere, nice and were always there for me. I miss her even more after a week he did not come.

Finally I ventured into the office to ask the mother Riri my homeroom teacher about Nina's home address. After getting home address Nina after school I hurried to her house to bring gifts I have not had time to give it on his birthday. Entered his house a narrow alley and away from school. And that is great even though his home is far and had to take public transportation she always comes early. Her enthusiasm was incredible. Spirit to reach his goal to become a doctor. He always tells me want to be a doctor in order to help the poor who can not afford treatment. Neighbors may suffer economic factors.

I asked the neighbor Nina until finally I found the house Nina. The house is simple, even very simple. And when I knocked on his door while carrying out a mother of small children. Mother's face was so gaunt, and also look puffy. "Mom, what's true home Nina?" I asked cautiously for fear of the wrong address. "Yes, son, it is the home of Nina". I jumped in delight as it will soon meet with Nina. "Nina there, Buk?" I asked again. "Nina was washing clothes at a neighbor's house". I choked hearing Nina's mother greeting. "Since his father died Nina helps mothers make money. Usually after school she helped the mother. Due to last week ill mother, yes Nina who replaced me while. Actually, the mother could not bear, boy. But he was always forced the mother to rest. ", Nina's mother told him in a voice quivering with sad facial expression. Unknowingly tears dripping. Cheerful Nina, Nina is always looking to the future optimistically, Nina is always studious and always a champion in school, turns her life so miserable. But he never complained, never showing pain.

I am embarassed. I am embarrassed to tell him. I realized that my mother and father angry when my grades dropped, I should feel no dianakemaskan again. See Nina. She went to school without a father figure. Why is he still could toughen? Sometimes I just cry when the father went overseas. Nina has always said, "God has given considerable family fortune. And he ordered the mother to scold, so what? In order for you to be disciplined. You can still enjoy a lot of games, and it has been blinded. Love. Look, Sis. They are in there moaning and praying wading fate. Be thankful, Sis. You have parents complete and rich. "Now I realized. What is the meaning of his words. After seeing the state of the facts.

Nina came from a distance. When a few more steps to the house, I immediately hugged. "Nina, I miss you." I said softly whispered in his ear. I felt Nina's body is getting thinner, he may break due to fatigue and lack of work and also care for her mother. I give gifts vase days. "Thanks Siska, you still remember my birthday, I alone forgot because kesibukanku help the mother". I was touched when Nina opened the gift, and no bag in it. His eyes sparkled happily. "I've always wanted to have a bag of this model, but I can not afford it", Nina cried with joy. I am happy to see the happy twinkle in the eyes of my friend Nina. Happy. Behind the sadness and the hard life he lived he could get a gift from me to smile.

Nina home from home, I felt enlightened. That I should be grateful to have parents who complete and dear to me. Affluent life, abundant affection. What a fool I am if not grateful for this situation. I promise to abide by the advice of his father and mother. Must be diligently studied so my goal became architecture can be achieved.

Thank you, my friend Nina. Because of you now I realize that in life we ​​can not always complain, should be more grateful, and also we should not give in to circumstances.
