Trying to Care


"Anka?" Marina surprised. "What are you doing? We're not mahram you know even though I feel you're like your own sister" he explained.


Anka frowned and frowned. Doesn't Marina understand how I feel about her? "I ...."


Baby Farhan's back fussy. He started crying.


"Would we just go home?" ask Marina.


"Ah, no!" Anka grabbed the woman's hand. "We've already come here, don't we try to go for a walk?"


"But ...."


"Yuk, walk!" The young man pulled the woman's hand to follow her.


Marina was forced to follow the young man.

Abigail was strong working through the night. He did not expect that just thinking about the woman, he seemed to be filled with positive energy in him that was able to raise her from adversity. This is really amazing. In fact he can focus on discussing until 7 pm where he almost forgot the time if not because of hunger. He then stopped the meeting and promised to continue tomorrow.


The man then ordered the food through delivery and then went back to the apartment. There he waited for orders. This is the first time his appetite has returned. He ordered a large pizza and ate it alone. Quite satisfying because it leaves one piece that he then keeps in the refrigerator.


For some reason, something as trivial as this could make him happy.


He laid his body on the bed, crossed his legs and folded his arms under his head. It felt like he had just come out of a big problem pit and met a bright light that brought him out and that light was Marina.


Others may not believe it, but from today on he will fight for his happiness. He wanted to know his feelings for the woman and find his son. Just thinking of happy things will keep moving inside your head because after all, it is exhausting to think of something bad that has no way out.


He must learn to let go of the past, Alena and and her guilt. There is nothing more to ask because his wife is gone. While his wife had been freed from that sense, why was she still struggling there inexhaustible? It's not fair, is it? Now, she wants to be a little selfish by thinking about Marina and her baby, the happiness she can now choose. Let someone else say what ...


The man smiled to himself thinking that his thoughts had begun to change.


-------------+++------------


That morning the man was intending to go to Marina's apartment, but he didn't know how. Actually, I don't know how to start. Repeatedly he wanted to get out of the apartment door but back again he hesitated. Finally he could only pacing the door of his own apartment.


What does he have to say? 'Hello? Do you remember me?' Ah no, no. He rubbed the back of his neck. Why is the first introduction so difficult? Ah, I've already met him, haven't I, what else?


Ah, we're not familiar. Yes, not familiar. Because it's hard. Ah ... how this works .... The man was really confused.


What is reckless? Take her down to the cafe and have coffee together? The man rubbed the back of his neck. Why can't a highly educated man like me take a woman out? Be fat! It's only right my parents betrothed me to Alena. Ah, already. Don't think about it anymore. He grunted annoyed.


Long silent at last he let out a long breath. "Listen!(Listen carefully), everything has a theory ...," he told himself. Then he fell silent.


"Come and face it!" He then hurried out.


When he turned in the corridor, he found Marina's apartment visited by Anka, the young woman's neighbor so that finally the man continued his steps to the elevator because it was impossible to go to the woman's apartment anymore.


I'd better go to the police station first this morning after that I'll try my luck back by coming back here. The man looked back towards the door of Marina's apartment unit. The young man was no longer visible because he must have entered the apartment.


See you!


At the police station, it turns out Abigail is being asked a lot of questions and it seems that the police suspect her because there are repeated questions such as 'where the Father was at the time of the incident' or trick questions such as 'when your last meeting'.


Question after question passed Abigail and tried to persevere, focus and be honest. He was trying to be consistent with his answer. After a long time, the man was finally released.


After he finished, Abigail began to feel annoyed. He was not in the mood to go home to the apartment and then drive his vehicle to the office.


He then realized that day he could work well even with a messy mood. It took time for him to get through his dark days after his wife's death. Then he continued his work.

"Farhan .. uma uma uma, Farhan .. uma uma." Marina was playing with the baby, who was staring at her. "Mmh, ba .. miu miu. Mmh, ba .. miu miu miu." She played peek-a-lop with the baby but the baby still did not understand and just stared at the strange mimic Marina showed the baby with a serious face.


Because Farhan's baby never laughed, the woman unwinded by putting the baby on the bed and resting herself beside the baby while scowling, it made the baby suddenly laugh seeing Marina's scowling face.


"Farhaaan .. Are you happy to see Mami frowning? Mmh?" The woman was so anxious with the baby that she gently pinched the little baby's chin. Baby Farhan laughed again. Marina peeps her cheeks.


Marina sighed while looking at the ceiling of her room. "When are we doing this, Farhan?"


The baby's hands twitched and grabbed Marina's long hair. He pulled.


"Mmh, Mami's son started to, everything is being pulled. The ends will enter the mouth."


Justright. The baby, who had gotten Marina's hair in her hand, opened her mouth to put it in her mouth but she quickly pulled it.


"Can't be, dirty!" hardik the woman gently.


The baby is crying.


"Ck, it's hard for you to say." Marina. He took the baby out of the room and shook the baby's body to stop crying.


Then came the idea of watching TV. "Ah, how about we watch a cartoon, would you?"


Marina turned on the TV but the baby was still crying. "Oh, Mommy should how else is this?"


To coincide with that, the bell rang. Marina swiftly put on her instant hijab with one hand and opened the door.


"Why Brother, Farhan is crying?" ask Anka who brought lunch back.


"His been scolded by Mami, immediately the cry did not stop."


Anka who entered the apartment turned her head. "Maybe hungry too times, brother."


"Oh, is that it? I didn't think about getting there, did I?"


Anka laughing. He put his luggage on the table. "Here, Anka's carrying, Brother so that Brother can make his milk."


Marina hands Farhan's baby to Anka and then goes to the kitchen.
