Untold

I was born in a good place at first. Have a good family, have a place to live, I'm eating just fine without knowing anything. When I was a little, My mother always sang a lullaby for me and everything was so perfect when I think about it again. Then when I grow up, I live in a place with many people around. I go to university, go to Mall, spend money to buy a new bag and everything I need...or maybe not.

I tried to sit down in the food court while listening to the music from my hand phone that day. While waiting for my drink to come, a woman noticed me. She's not pretty like the other woman that sitting beside her. Pretty with make up, good hair treatment and other stuff. That woman was just plain without make up on her. She was mopping the floor and I could see her sweat everytime she mopped the floor. People passing by like there wasn't any person in front of them. The floor got dirty again and she just mopped it again and again and again... Can't count how much she do that stuff.

Same story passed by in my mind. That night, I wanted to order fried rice. I asked the waiter and guess who came? A little boy with a cap on him. I was surprised but he just smiled. I saw him took all the order, cleaned all the dish, even mopped the floor. Pranggg!! One of the glass fell off and broken into pieces. A man with a good suit call that kid. That boy cleaned it and that's it. No "thank you" came from that man's mouth. He didn't care and just talked with his girlfriend.

"Here you go". A waitress came and gave my drink. "Thank you". She smiled and left. Looked at my orange juice and then looked again to the woman. She still mopping the floor. Why the world is so cruel? Why they can have the same thing I have? Why she can't be angry to that people? Why it's so hard for them? Do the people think about their feeling? Why people don't notice? Why she can't be like the other woman? Why the boy doesn't play with his friends and go to school like my brother?

Why?

I drank my orange juice and closed my eyes for a moment. I guess God have the key for this problem. Everyone have their own stories and their own role to play. We never know. It's a secret and untold. So, human have to figure it out themselves with all the signs that God gives. It's weird isn't it? But, it's the truth.
