HAPPY READING
Una came out of Nadhif's room. Right in front of the door, the tears that Una had been holding out just like that. He wiped his tears when his eyes were met by the sight of the little girl who had always been his encouragement.
"Mother," call Hanum who has been near the stairs since.
Una smiled and looked at Hanum. "Hanum is awake?" asked Una. because earlier, after dawn Hanum returned to sleep because drowsiness still attacked Hanum's beautiful eyes.
Hanum nodded. "We have breakfast, yuk Bu before Papi comes down. Later if there is already Papi, would not want to eat breakfast because he saw Hanum, Mom. If Papi does not eat breakfast, it can hurt, right Bu," said Hanum with a cheerful face, but able to give sadness in the recesses of Una's heart.
Una nodded. "let's have breakfast, son," said Una holding Hanum's hand down for breakfast.
.....
While in the room, Nadhif was still silent. His mind was muddled after Una came out of his room. The clothes that Una had given him were still within his grasp. While his body is still covered by the towel he was wearing.
"You're getting a jerk, Nadhif," Nadhif said.
For the past four years, Nadhif has changed his habit of one night stands with women. But getting married to Una, takes it all back that way and falls into a life she hates so much.
Nadhif is wearing his clothes. When he finished, the man went out and came down from the room for breakfast.
Una and Hanum eat in the kitchen. Hanum, the boy heard footsteps approaching the kitchen.
"What's wrong with you, son?" una asked to see Hanum who was about to bring his fried rice dishes to their room.
"Hanum hasn't finished eating, but Papi's here, Mom. Hanum does not want Papi to see Hanum, it can make Papi disgusted," said Hanum.
"It's okay, Hanum just eat here. Not a disgusting human being, son," said Una.
"But Hanum's a bastard, ma'am. And Papi always says disgust with illegitimate children," said Hanum looking at the sad Una.
DEG
His heart stopped beating right then and there. Which mother does not hurt to hear the child she has raised, the child she has always cared about, is said to be an illegitimate child by someone who does not even know about her past. Seeing her son's sad eyes, made Una mourn his bad luck. "Hanum knows what a bastard means, son?" Ask Una hatu-hati.
Hanum shook his head to answer Una's question. "Hanum doesn't know, Mom. But Papi is always disgusted to say it. That's not a good thing, ma'am. Hanum went to the room first, yes," said Hanum and passed away leaving Una alone.
O God, do not let my son grow up quickly because of our circumstances. Inner Una on its creator. Truly, Una also wants her child to grow up like any other child.
......
Time has shown at two o'clock in the afternoon. Una has done all his work. His heart warmed to see Hanum now playing alone in the back garden. While Nadhif was busy with various documents in his office.
"I went no, yes," said Una hesitantly.
"If I don't go, my husband will be more and more lapsed in sin" Una continued muttering.
"Hanum," call the gentle Una.
Una who was busy with her swing, now stopped and turned to Una. "Yes, ma'am" replied Hanum.
"Mom went away for a while, yeah. I have business to do, I have to finish" said Una.
"Old mother?" ask Hanum.
"Later in the afternoon I'm home, son," replied Una.
"Mother, don't be long, yeah. How is Papi nyariin. Hanum did not dare to face Papi," said Hanum slowly.
Una nodded. "Mom won't be long. Hanum play comfortable yes, son," said Una.
Hanum nodded obediently. Before leaving, the boy kissed Una's cheek. Una who saw it smiled happily and kissed his son's cheek again.
.....
Una regulated his breathing and neutralized his heartbeat. I don't want to go back to that barbaric place. It was where the destruction of his life began.
Convincing her heart, Una stepped forward to enter the place. "What's up, Madam?" ask the guard when Una gets to the entrance.
"I want to meet Mami Flora" Una said.
The guard examined Una's clothes from top to bottom. "You sure?" the guard hesitated. As he looked, Una was a good person with clothes covering the aurat.
Una nodded obediently. "Very sure. Just tell Mami Flora, there is Una who wants to meet," said Una.
"Wait here, ma'am," said the guard. The guard went inside to see his boss.
After a few minutes, the guard returned. "Please, ma'am," said the guard to let Una in.
"There's Mami's room, ma'am," said the guard politely.
Una nodded. His feet opened the door. The first glance that Una saw was a woman in her forties, yet still looking very pretty with her make up, along with a few men surrounding her playing cards while smoking.
"Mommy," call Una.
Mami Flora, the woman looked up and smiled. "You're back here, Una?" he said astonishedly looking at Una.
"Can you talk to me, Mommy?" tanya Una looked at the surroundings without answering Mami Flora's question.
Mami Flora was silent for a moment. But after seeing Una's serious face, he asked the men who played with him to come out.
"What's up, Una?" mami Flora asked directly as they lived together in the room.
"Help Una into one of these whores, Mami."
Mami Flora who was cool with cigarettes in her hands, immediately stopped her smoking activities and put the cigarettes that have not been exhausted in the cigarette ashtray on the table.
"You don't joke, Una" said Mami Flora, who couldn't believe what Una said.
She looked at Mami Flora. "Una's not kidding, Mami," said Una sure.
Mami Flora looked at Una from top to bottom. "Are you going to sacrifice your hijab, Una?" ask Mami Flora.
Una. "Not Mommy. This is the identity of Una, and what Una does is not insulting the Una hijab at all" Una replied firmly.
Mami Flora sighed deeply. The chairman and owner of the club that night shook his head to Una. "Mommy disagrees. Aren't you the one who didn't want to be a prostitute?" ask Mami Flora.
Una. "Not a whore, Mommy. More precisely to be a satisfied bed Una's husband," replied Una who was able to make Mami Flora round her eyes in disbelief.
"Husband?" ask Mami Una.
"Nadhif," replied Una who increasingly made Mami Flora surprised.
"You don't joke, Una!" mami Flora said in disbelief.
"Una's not kidding, Mommy. Una does not want Una's husband to be more involved in sin with a woman who is not his muhrim, Mami. Una found Nadhif's customer card at Mami's club" Una explained.
"Nadhif is a regular here, Una. Even almost every day," said Mami Flora who increasingly made the heart of Una shapeless. Almost every day? That means that every time her husband must have committed that blasphemous sin.
"How can you marry Nadhif, Una? Then Hanum, your son?"
