Centil Mas Adi's
Mom Wants to Stay Home for a While

Night Days.

Adi, Caca and Ms. Puspita were in the living room watching television. Joseph, meanwhile, was asleep in the room.

“Mas, tomorrow Caca will go to the market alone. Mas stay at home with Mom and Yusuf,” Caca said to the husband who sat on the right side of Caca.

“Caca sure alone? Do not want to be accompanied by Mas?” ask Adi to make sure.

“No need, Mas. Caca didn't want to until Mas why-why. Caca can kok alone,” reply Caca.

“Alright, the most important thing is Caca take care of himself,” said Adi who was worried about the safety of his small wife.

“Mas don't worry too much like this. Caca is fine, after all the market is not far from here,” Caca replied while tightly grasping her husband's left hand.

Puspita's mother smiled happily at Adi and Caca who were getting closer to each other.

“Nak Caca, Adi! I want to talk to you and I hope you can understand with Mom's decision,” said Ibu Puspita.

“What decision, Mom?” adi asked curiously as well as Caca.

“Mum wants to temporarily stay at home. I miss the atmosphere of home,” replied Ibu Puspita.

“Then, Mom until when to stay at home? Then, what about us? Mother also there must be lonely if alone,” reply Caca who is now sitting next to Mother-in-law.

Caca tightly hugged Mother-in-law as if she did not want her mother to live with her small family. Caca is very affectionate with her mother-in-law and is afraid that at home her mother-in-law is lonely.

“Nak Caca do not be sad, Mom is only temporary until Mom feels calm. InshaAllah after Mother is calm, peaceful and the heart of Mother is completely sincere. I will stay here again, with Nak Caca, Adi and also my favorite grandson,” concluded Ibu Puspita.

Caca's embrace is getting tighter, it feels very heavy if you have to part with Mother-in-law for a while.

“So, when will Mom come home?” ask Caca.

“Tomorrow morning,” replied Ibu Puspita.

“Why so fast, Mom? Why not next month?” caca asked with a whine.

Adi was stunned to see the closeness of his wife and biological mother. In fact, Adi felt that the biological child here was Caca and not herself.

“Mas Adi why shut up? Quickly persuade Mom to come home next month!” pinta Caca so that the husband persuades Mother Puspita.

“Caca dear, how else? It was my choice. After all, Mom came home only temporarily. After that, Mother will return to stay with us,” explained Adi who did not mind the decision of Ms. Puspita.

Caca let go of his embrace while smiling little.

“Alright, Caca won't cry anymore. Anyway, if I'm happy Caca is happy too. If indeed I want to go home because I miss the late Father Faizal, Caca faithfully awaits Mom to return,” said Caca.

Puspita's mother laughed at Caca's words that sounded a little exaggerated.

“Mom don't laugh at Caca, Caca it's very much the same Mom,” Caca said.

Caca's spoiled side instantly came out. The mother of Puspita and Adi understand the spoiled side of a Caca Lestari.

“Mom laughs because Caca looks so funny. It will be even more funny if there is a small Caca,” explained Ibu Puspita.

Adi and Caca glanced at each other at Mother Puspita's words, a hard-coded gesture to ask for a granddaughter.

“Kok silent?” ask Mother Puspita when she saw the reaction of Adi and Caca who was just silent sculpting.

“According to Adi, it is better to postpone it first, Mom. Adi does not want Caca hassles,” replied Adi who did not want to make his wife tired because there was still a very small Joseph.

“Don't take it too seriously, I'm just kidding. After all, Joseph is still a baby and pity if you have another baby,” said Ms. Puspita.

They continued to talk until 12pm. Then, Ibu Puspita said to rest because tomorrow morning he had to wake up earlier than usual.

“Nak Caca, Adi. Mom to the room yes, Mom's eyes are very heavy and want to sleep immediately,” said Ibu Puspita while walking towards the room.

Caca patted her husband's thigh and invited him to sleep.

“Mas, let's go to the room. We also have to sleep!” take Caca.

Next morning.

“Mommy just wants to go home. Is our discussion last night less long?” ask Mother Puspita.

Puspita's mother came back closer and hugged her daughter-in-law again.

“Caca dear, if this continues when will Mom go home? Sir driver's wits upset with Mom if not immediately go.”

“Mother there take care of health, if you feel unwell go directly to the health center or to the hospital. If you can't go alone, Caca will come home and accompany you on medication. You should also eat on time. If you are lazy to cook, I just buy a side dish so. If Mother...”.

Puspita's mother was anxious with Caca's mouth which continued to talk nonstop.

“Ssuutts.... Long Caca like a chatty Mom,” chirps Mother Puspita interrupts Caca's speech.

“Yes already, I'm leaving and don't forget to tell Caca after arriving home.”

Mother once again said goodbye to Adi, Caca and Baby Joseph. Then, get into the car because it has been awaited by the driver of the car online.

After Mother Puspita completely abandoned them, Caca looked down miserably and tried to look fine.

“Have not been sad, let's accompany Mas to sit!” pinta Adi who wants to sit on the chair accompanied by his wife.

“You guys Caca massage?” tanya Caca offered herself.

“No need, later tonight only. I just want to sit together and joke. Kan, today the stall is closed,” replied Adi.

Adi wants to spend time alone with his little wife. Adi was not wanted to be disturbed by anyone, enough he and his little wife. Adi also hoped that Joseph would not fuss.

A few moments later.

Puspita's mother had reached her home and quickly contacted her daughter-in-law.

“Hallo, assalamu'alaikum,” says Ms. Puspita.

“Wa'alaikumsalam, Mom is home?” ask Caca from behind the phone.

“Alhamdulillah already, Son Caca. This Mom is sitting in the living room chair, it looks like some in front of Mom will be busy cleaning the house,” explained Ibu Puspita.

“Mother at home should not be exhausted yes. If the body feels tired, immediately rest so that the body does not hurt,” Caca explained.

For almost 20 minutes they talked on the phone. Until finally, there was a neighbor coming and Ibu Puspita had to end the phone call.

“Nak Caca, I'll call you again later. Assalamu'alaikum!”

“Wa'alaikumsalam,” says Caca.

On the other side.

“Have you finished talking to Mom? In fact, his own son was not contacted,” said Adi put on a look of jealousy.

“Mother is unfortunately the same Caca and not the same Mas Adi. So, don't be jealous if you pay more attention to Caca than Mas,” said Caca smiled confidently.

Adi pretended not to hear his wife's words and instead deliberately walked away.

“Mas!” call Caca while running over.

“Mas wants to drink iced oranges. Can you please make me some orange ice?” ask Adi who wants to be a little spoiled with his little wife.

“But, not free loh Mas. Caca wants in return for a kiss here,” Caca said as she touched her cheek.

“Hmm... Then, it doesn't become deh.”

“Kok not so, Mas? You don't want to kiss Caca? No more taste with Caca?” ask Caca sadly.

“Astagfirullahaladzim, Kok Caca even think like that. Mas mean it is not so if only the cheeks, Mas want another. As here,” bright Adi while touching her lips.

“Can be set,” said Caca casually.

“OK, now Mas ask please ya Caca dear!”

“Good.Caca will make orange ice for us and Mas's job is to keep Joseph in the living room. Poor Joseph alone no friend.”
