After nearly two hours of talking with her best friend, Siska rushed home. He had to prepare lunch for his family, especially for his two children. Yes, although not close to his mother, Deni the youngest son of Siska always ate the cuisine made by the mother. And that made Siska happy. Although the blood relationship is still thick between the two even though it is real if her husband and his family try to make a distance between the mother and the child. So for the sake of his two children Siska tried to be strong and grabbed the heart of his youngest son slowly.
No one knows why to marry someone who clearly does not love her and even hates her so much. Siska's thoughts drifted almost 17 years ago as she struggled to make ends meet after she was just released from prison. The luxurious life he always felt when with his parents and Keysha can no longer feel. Until he had to fight hard to find a job to connect his life. His former status makes it even harder to get a job even if it's a rough job. And at times like that many offers for him to peddle himself from his old social friends. But Siska is not the Siska that used to be. indeed the prison kept him locked from the outside world, but there he found peace because his cellmate who taught him to know religion. Although they are also saints, it seems that their direction has touched them so as to try to become a better human being. And Siska was carried away.
So when out of prison women prefer to do halal work that drains energy rather than quickly get rupiah but in a haram way. So predictable, the woman was very difficult to get a job. Even Siska was desperate to scavenge for the sake of being able to buy a pack of rice to prop her stomach with halal money. It was when she scavenged that she met the lady Ratri. A clear reminder in Siska's memory at that time had been all day he scavenged, but the results were still very little. If sold, the results are not up to five thousand, not enough to buy a packet of rice and fresh tea drinks. Since yesterday he has not eaten and only stuffed his stomach with tap water that he found in the mosque where he worshiped and rested his body for a moment.
It was as sad as his life at the time. He also has no place to live and sleep in any place. Siska lost everything while in prison. Her parents' property runs out to hire a lawyer, coupled with the burden of debt due to her luxurious lifestyle, making Siska also lose her parents' house. Siska remembered that day, with a shaky step because he lacked the energy he still tried to find used goods for him to collect in order to buy something to fill his stomach. Suddenly he saw across the street there was a pile of cardboard that was quite a lot. And it made his eyes instantly sparkle.
Without thinking and looking left-right, Siska strode her feet in a hurry to cross. He did not want anyone before him to take the pile of cardboard. But that's why he ended up being wretched. Without him realizing if from the side there was a car that drove at high speed to be unavoidable when his frail body was immediately hit hard. What was even more sad than stopping, the driver of the car instead drove his car faster and left Siska at the scene. The deserted area made the car able to escape immediately. Maybe the driver of the car thought if he just hit a scavenger who would not be able to demand back so he did not feel at all guilty leaving the person he hit in the middle of the road.
As a result of the violent impact of the collision Siska was immediately unconscious. Luckily, another car was passing by and the passengers helped and took him to the hospital. Because it was so badly injured that if it was a little too late then his life would be lost. Siska had to undergo surgery first to save her life. And again the person who helped him was the one who bore all the costs of his surgery and treatment while in the hospital. And that person is Ratri's mother. Even during Siska's post-surgery hospital stay, the woman always came to see Siska who was known to have no family. And from there the two became close, and Siska became indebted to Ratri's mother.
Siska finally gets a chance to repay her debt to Ratri's mother when the woman asks him for her help to become the wife of her only grandson. At first Siska of course refused by exposing all the disgrace of his past because he did not want to be considered to take advantage of the kindness of the old woman. But in fact Ratri even more convinced if Siska is the right person for her grandson. And his track record of ex-con becomes an important point for the woman to still choose Siska to be her former granddaughter. Siska at that time did not understand the reason of Ms. Ratri, but finally she agreed to return the favor.
And when he was introduced to the woman's family and her grandchildren, she was also honest about Siska's past which led them to reject and ridicule Siska at once. They also assume Siska used the old woman to earn a luxurious living. But Ratri always defended her and even threatened her granddaughter to marry Siska. Got a rejection Siska was hesitant to continue to follow the request of Ms. Ratri. But the woman even invited him to meet someone who immediately made the mind immediately changed and steady to grant Ms. Ratri's request.
Siska exhaled slowly. The debt of life to Ms Ratri made her live a life of hell with her husband. The rejection at the beginning of the marriage did not make him give up. All for the sake of realizing the desire of the woman who had saved his life. His patience slowly produced results. Her husband who originally hated her so much slowly melted down and was willing to accept her. Until they had two children. But that all changed when five years ago Ratri passed away. Everyone turned around immediately. It turns out that the husband only lies in accepting himself and most painfully the man is still in contact with his lover without his knowledge and Ms Ratri. The husband's affair supported by his family makes the forbidden relationship can run smoothly for dozens of years.
And what hurt Siska the most was when her husband and family even brought her youngest son closer to the woman by always making a gap so that she was seen as a mother who was not good at caring for the son, he said, which makes the son consider him not a good mother. It's too painful to live together in that family but Siska is wet. She must keep her promise to Ms. Ratri if she will keep her husband and family away from the woman named Jihan. The woman who is loved by her husband and is the daughter-in-law of her dreams is Jihan. Only he and Ratri's mother knew the reason why she shouldn't belong to Suryono's family.
Siska parked her car in the yard. Then she rushed to the room to change clothes and went straight to the kitchen to prepare food for her two children. Yes, only the two of them are still willing to eat the dishes he made. But Siska doesn't care. For him if his two children want to eat the food he made it was very happy. And for the others, he doesn't care. If not for giving his promise to Ms Ratri to repay her bud, she had long since left her husband.
At school, Ayana and Dira get closer. Even Dira invited him to stay at his house this weekend. But Ayana who actually harbored problems in her family rejected the offer subtly. It's nothing.he couldn't have left her alone even if it was just last night. Without anyone knowing if every night Ayana always saw the mother who often cried alone. Although never asked the reason to the mother, but Ayana knew that it was all because of the work of the father. As a teenager, he was able to understand the problems of his parents. The papa's affair has been repeatedly questioned. And for some reason the whole family supported the depraved deed, so that they were more free.
Ayana knows that what makes the mother most sad is the attitude of the sister who actually accepted the actor and condoned the depraved behavior of her father. That's why he can't get close to his brother. There was a sense of vengeance for his sister. If given the opportunity to want it feels like he returned all the pain suffered by the mother. But what's the power is just a snot kid. He has no power to fight adults. When the bell went home from school, it sounded like the other students Ayana and Dira rushed out of the classroom and walked towards the school gate.
And today for the first time Ayana was picked up by the family car. Ayana who recognized the car that was usually only special to deliver her sister was waiting in front of the gate. After saying goodbye to Dira, he also stepped lazily towards the car that picked him up. When Ayana opened the door beside the driver she could see that in the back there was already the sister who looked busy with her phone. He was silent and did not say hello to his brother. After Ayana put her seat belt, the driver immediately drove her car.
"Mommy's son has gone home?" greet Siska when she sees her two children entering the house.
"Yes ma.." said Ayana with a smile and immediately embraced the mother.
Deni immediately stepped his foot into his room. Siska sighed softly when she saw the behavior of the son.
"Patience ma... someday everything will be fine." said Ayana while stroking her mother's arm.
"Yes dear.." said Siska with a smile.
"Now quickly change your clothes, then we eat together. don't forget to take your sister.." he continued.
Tok...
"Let's go down Den.. Mama is waiting at the dinner table!" the screams are on Deni's doorstep.
Without waiting for a response from Deni, Anaya immediately continued her steps into the dining room. Shortly after Ayana passed, Deni's room door opened. The ten-year-old boy also stepped footily following the brother. Actually, he didn't really hate his mom. But his treatment that he considered differentiating between himself and his brother made him disappointed. Unbeknownst to him if it was only incitement exhaled by the father and his family. What else every time he needed the mother when there was activity at school not the mother who came but aunt Jihan who he knew if it was his papa friend.
Without him knowing if all that has been arranged by people who want to separate a mother from her son. However, at lunch is actually the time he likes. My mom always cooks her favorite menu. He also always accompanied her and her sister ate together.
"Today's Sunday mama wants to take the two of you on vacation together... do you want to?" siska asked her two children when they had just finished their meal.
"You ma! where are we going?" exciting Ayana.
Deni looked a little surprised. She did not know that her mother would take her on vacation.
"How's Den? do you want to come?" ask Siska again.
"I. yes ma.." said Deni slightly stuttered because he was still surprised.
"Well... tomorrow we will go on vacation to the top...how?"
"Yey! that's just exciting.. thanks ma.." exclaimed Ayana happily.
Deni just smiled faintly. But his heart was also equally happy.
"Alright.. then Saturday afternoon we immediately leave.so mama hope you will immediately prepare so tomorrow after school immediately leave..."
Ayana and Deni immediately nodded their heads in agreement.
"But I hope you didn't tell my plan to Papa and the others, because they're going to aunt Naya's wedding reception..."
"So we don't go with them ma?" ask Deni.
"Yes, dear... Because this time you just want the three of us to go... do you mind?"
"Ga kok ma.." said Deni who began to show his smile.
Siska immediately smiled happily. Yes, he deliberately used this moment to get closer to his two children, especially with the youngest.
