When I was 10 years old, I have an awkward situation. I was so clumsy back then. Me and my family were on the way back to home after the family trip from Yogyakarta to Jakarta. We stopped by at the restaurant in East Java for a lunch. The restaurant was pretty comfort and fun, but it was full and crowded because it was a long-weekend. There were a lot of games like flying fox, picking strawberry, bathe a goat, to fish, and many more.

We chose the sitting area named 'Lesehan' in Bahasa Indonesia. Lesehan is like there are one short-table but there are no chair. So, you eat a food on the table and sitting on the floor. After we ordered the food, we sat and talked to each other. But, there were a cons that I don't like about the restaurant. There were a lot of FLIES! I can't stand them because it was so annoying and can make lose my appetite. So, we asked the waitress for a candle.

When the foods and the candles came, we were so ready to eat because we haven't eat anything before. When I was eating my food, my mom told me to tie my hair so the food doesn't get to my hair and I said later because I was too lazy to do that. But suddenly, I felt that there was a burnt sound beside me and the stupidest thing is like I don't give a damn and still focused on my food. After that, my mom was screaming that there was a fire in my hair and I was so surprised and screaming. Luckily, my brother sat beside me and saw that fire and blowed my hair. I was so relieved that the fire finally gone.

I rushed to the bathroom and washed my burnt hair. I felt very regret that I wasn't listening to my mom and I think that was a karma. My family laughed very hard after saw that situation and gave me some advice. My after-burnt-hair was so dry and smelly. The moral of the story is don't you ever be a hard-headed person and always listen to your mom
