Be Our Mama

Be Our Mama

The next day, Ami, who had recovered from her illness, came with her family at a ceremony held by Sholeh's madrasah foundation, which was filled with lectures from a well-known kyiai, until the event took place without leaving a solemn impression. In an atmosphere of gratitude for all the gifts of God bestowed, until the foundation of religious education had many students.

After the tasyakuran event was completed, Usfi and Ima and their house assistant Dedah, cleaned up the house that was used as a place for the Thanksgiving event.

The large house was around the foundation office, some neighbors, and students helped clean the place. Gani and his brother-in-law, Alpin, also helped. It was late afternoon when the show was over.

Usfi approached Gani who was still piling up some dirty dishes and said, “Already, Bang! Do not need to help already many who ngerjainnya, pity Azam like sleepy tuh let alone mother just healed!”

“Keep, you told me to go home quickly, did you? Uh, same thing, ngusir, you know?”

“Yes, I did, just thought Azam was the same Mom, Bang! It's up to you to be considered ngusir!”

“Cuman thought of Mom as Azam, didn't think of me?”

Astarghfirullah's. Usfi was privileged in his heart, he did not know what to answer to this man. If it continues, it is likely that they will fight again and it is embarrassing, because there are still many people around them, so eventually Usfi left him.

Gani Kesel with the attitude of Usfi who suddenly left him just like that, without answering anything, even though he wanted to know whether the woman thought about it or not.

Meanwhile, all that Usfi and Gani did, did not escape the attention of Ima and Ami who whispered to each other, then nodded and they then talked something with Sholeh, the man sat down by himself, enjoying the coffee that has not yet finished.

The three old men spoke intensely for a while and, they only stopped after Gani approached. He invited his mother Ami—, to go home because the place already looks neater and cleaner.

Ami and his family return home after saying goodbye to the Sholeh family, at the same time, Gani and Usfi just act like they don't know each other, not even a word came out of their mouths, even if it was just a stale word before they left.

At night, Usfi took out his car which had been in the garage for a long time, although the car was well taken care of by Soleh and his aides, but very rarely used. When the Usfi brothers came home to visit their parents, they did not dare to use the car.

Usfi went to his house after saying goodbye to his parents, Soleh and also Ima also said that the house was often seen there were residents, indicating that Naura was often there. Sure enough when Usfi stopped his car right in front of his simple building first, it seemed the inside lights were on.

Usfi quickly knocked on the door of the house after getting out of his car, then, said his greetings. So surprised he was when the door opened, there Imad stood up while shedding tears. The teenage boy was surprised for a moment and immediately embraced Usfi tightly, not only Imad, but also Fadil and Noura appeared with the same facial expression.

For four years abroad, as many as four times Usfi also returned to his parents' home. In addition to the busyness, plane tickets are quite expensive, making him forced to go home only once a year, when Lebaran arrived. However, even though he never looked at the house, because he was busy helping his parents who had a lot of guests. Moreover, he could not leave his vegetable crops for too long.

“What's with you guys?” Usfi asked after the embrace of the two children came off. And, she tidied back her veil that was soaked by tears. While Fadil who is quite mature, just look at his brother while sitting on the sofa living room of the house.

“Tante heart! Never come here!” noura said while hitting Usfi's shoulder.

“Sorry, let's tell you why you're crying?” usfi asked as she rubbed Imad's head gently, ignoring the pain on his shoulder due to Noura's punch.

“Tante sit down first, deh!” said the man who is now in the second grade of High School. Imad his sister, now Junior High and Noura has entered the final semester.

Usfi sat close to her ex-husband's children. All this time, she thought the children had no problem because every time she contacted Naura, the girl always said she was okay.

Noura never told me anything, about Anwar's family. It is precisely Usfi who tells more about schools, plants and their struggles. Each time she shared the experience, Noura seemed enthusiastic, also responding positively, so she did not have bad thoughts with her ex-husband's household.

While what he saw now was something different, seeing the children crying, made Usfi's heart also shredded. They then told me how Marini's attitude, like to be arbitrary and also did not think about how the needs of the children.

“You said, same Papa?”

“Already!” the three children said simultaneously.

“Keep, you guys come here often?”

“Ya!” answer them simultaneously.

“Papa y'all know?”

“Nggqk! Papa's busy, still kayak first!” Fadil.

“But, if you ask for money with Mr Joko, do not you?”

“In love, Aunt. If Auntie did not say ask for money to Mr. Joko, we do not know where to meet our needs from.” Noura.

The children go back to the story if they use the house as an escape, if Anwar is not at home so they are free from the anger or scolding of Marini, who is busy taking care of her own child.

“Usually you guys are here until how many days?”

“Until Papa gets home, Aunt, at most two days.”

From their talk, Usfi also understood that Anwar still often went home, although he remained busy, unlike when he was still his wife, her ex-husband came home only once a week and was only home for a day.

“You have good strength and thought, Aunt salut, you are indeed good children, surely Mama is proud to have a patient child like you!” Usfi gave their support and praised their personality.

He knew how the children who suffered the fate had to stay in the mother, but, shortly afterwards had to go back to swallowing the bitter reality that the father had a new wife. There will be no problem if the new wife loves her husband's children sincerely.

“Tante, don't go again, please marry Papa and be our Mama again, Auntie would you?”

Usfi was silent to hear Noura's sudden and unexpected request because the girl was most fiercely hostile to him. Although, pity them but, Usfi still can not immediately agree. The decision to remarry is not as easy as asking for it. He had to first make sure that, the children's stories were true.

And, if Marini really doesn't care or Anwar doesn't understand, she'll try as much as possible to settle, without entering the realm of her ex-husband's domestic life. Because he was just an outsider who cared about Maisha's children only, according to his last message via his mobile phone at that time.

After ordering them to take care of themselves, Usfi said goodbye without answering Noura's request, he only advised the teenagers to talk about everything, in front of Papa and Marini, too, openly to parse misunderstandings, thus problems can be solved easily.

“So, this is also as your stock if you are an adult about, how to solve the problem ... Before doing something, you must see what is the problem, then look for what causes it, after that, try to get what can solve it, continue ... then you decide what will be the solution.”

“Yes Aunt! Thank you.”

After that, Usfi returned to drive home with a feeling of annoyance, until it occurred to call Anwar whose phone number is still stored, even his name has not changed, still written Mas Anwar there.

He pulled his four-wheeled vehicle over to the side of the road, while attaching the advanced object to the ear.

“Halo, Mas!” usfi said as soon as the phone was connected.

“Usfi! This is really you, right, Fi?” heard Anwar's voice so carefree from the other end of the phone, “Why did you suddenly call me, Fi? Are you kangen? Would you like to be my wife again?”

A series of questions from Anwar made Usfi keep his phone stuff for a moment from the ear, at the same time, the glass window of his car was knocked someone from outside.
