Synopsis
The dim light of the fluorescent lamp in the corner of the room danced between the yellowish streaks spreading across the ceiling. The stale air felt like a heavy blanket hugging me tightly, choking my lungs every time I took a breath. But that didn't stop the gratitude that welled up in my heart when I heard the baby's first cry.
After nine months of grueling, obstacle-filled waiting, my daughter was born into the world. She was so fragile, her skin as delicate as flower petals.
I could feel her pain as she cried, as if her whole body and soul were protesting the harshness of the life that had just welcomed her. Yet there she was, my little angel, the most beautiful gift whose presence illuminated even the darkest corners of my life story.
My frail hand stretched out, welcoming her warm little fist. It was then that I promised, that no matter what obstacles would come my way, I would always be a protective fortress for her. No one would pull my shirt off, forcing me to face life alone like I had.
We grew up in a simple neighborhood, in a small village located at the foot of Mount Semeru. My father was a tobacco farmer, while my mother was just an ordinary housewife. It never once crossed our minds that life could provide more than just a scrap of rice and some vegetables on a plate.
