Something in The Public Transportation

 Tuesday, 4 of  January 2011. that time show around 7 P.M, I was still on my way to back home from my campus after finished my task which must done at 5 P.M at that time. Weariness completed my journey and was added with traffic jam in everywhere and  air polution which made me hard to breathe. In a corner chair of the public transportation, i was trying to wasn’t sleepy by turning some list of songs in my mp4. Half of the journey was through, suddenly driver was stopped his car for a moment because the hand wave of a women who was grip a hand of her son.

As usual, I shifted my seat position ,but something made me release the headset which attached on my ear immediately. I saw a women who had just entered into the car that I ride. I saw she was crying as she stroked her son's shoulder. Suddenly, the sound of a women who was crying when she talked to her son made all the passengers noticed to their covenversation .My eyes stare on them shortly after one of the passengers asked what had occured with the women and her son. Apparently, the child is a singer who always sing in a public transport that always deliver me  to back home everyday .

A women told that she had losted her son who 10 years old. She said that before she went to her hometown, she placed her son to the boarding school in Bekasi. But three days ago when she intend to visit her son, in fact the boarding school owner informed that her son had left a month ago. So, she tried to find her son began from Pulo Gadung and  finally Allah brough them together in West Bekasi area. After I heard these stories, me and all the passengers could only stroked our chest and tought "God, how come it’s could be happened". During the journey, my eyes still stare to the women who expressed her disappointment to her son.

At that time I thought, god, there are many people in out there who had things which more painful than the things which I had ever experienced so far. I could only pray, I hope her son will realize with mistake that he had done .And hopefully their  problem can be resolve with peaceful. Amen.
