CUTS
Keuranji Fruit....

After visiting the mass grave, they were invited around by Farris at Rendra's request.

“There was Papa maksa Mama y'all married?” rendra said as their car crossed the historic place on the beautiful coast.

“Mama was forced to marry Papa?” ask Anugrah curious.

During the trip, Anugrah was the most excited than Iskandar until the curse of Faris made the passengers of the car surprised and curious. “The background is Bang Fais really yes, Kak?”

Cut smile, “Same exactly.” Reply Cut immediately makes the Anugrah back splashy. “I'm curious to see papa Sister's face. I'm sure Papa Fais is handsome. My mom's taste is always that. If my Papa isn't handsome, Mama won't.”

“Your father is also your brother Papa!” Rendra.

“Then Papa Fais became my Papa too.” Reply Anugrah.

“If Papa Fais was around, he wouldn't want to have a chatty kid like you.” Rendra is back.

Either he should be happy or sad to see his youngest son has returned cheerful. But facing the curiosity of Anugrah is quite tiring also for him.

Occasionally they stop by to buy some street food typical of Aceh. Traditional cakes and some types of fruit that they just saw make Anugrah and Iskandar tempted to try it.

“I've seen a photo of this fruit on one of my friends from Aceh. His name-?” Iskandar seemed to think. “Promise, Son. Name of this fruit fruit keranji.” Say one of those sellers.

“We're like bringing two kids huh?” celtuk Rendra on Cut and Fais who watched his two sons chat while choosing and asking how to eat for the kuranji.

“Buy it don't do much!” disallow Cut.

“Grandpa alike Grandpa won't, Om? Let's all.” Ask Iskandar to Farris.

“You guys! They don't want to. Your mom just doesn't want.” Iskandar gave a piece of money ten thousand and then they went back on their way home.

“I want to take a shower to the beach, Om. When do we go?” ask Anugrah enthusiastically.

“You said you were curious about Papa Fais? We went to Grandpa and Grandma's house first. They are also in-laws of Aunt Reni.” Answer Rendra. For a moment the atmosphere in the car was a little calm because their two sons were busy eating keuranji fruit.

“It looks like Anugrah has been slightly distracted from the problem huh, Ma?” rendra whispered to his wife.

“Hopefully, Pa. Mama can't bear to see him sad continue. Thankfully, Iskandar has a brilliant idea.” Reply Cut.

“Mama with Papa what are whispers? Speaking of me, right?” asked Anugrah who immediately made her parents smile.

When the Cut family was happy, at the residence of Rendra's parents. Risma and her mother were lighting a stove fire in the hearts of Mr. Wicaksono and his daughter. “Before your Mama's grave dried, they've been sightseeing to Aceh. Really don't know the atmosphere.” Woe to the mother of Risma.

“Have they contacted you, Ren?” ask Risma to Reni.

“Not yet, nor did I have time to ask. Bang Adi also has not landed in Aceh so there is no news.” Reni was waiting for news from the husband who first returned to Aceh because of work that could not be left behind.

“You should reprimand Rendra occasionally. How could he leave his grieving father just to accompany his wife and children for a walk.” Risma's mother is getting heated up. While Mr. Wicaksono just sat down lethargic do not respond to anything.

“Ren, you better contact your brother!” mother of Risma.

As if provoked by the call made by Risma's mother, Reni immediately contacted her brother while away from her father.

“Hallo, brother when to go home?”

Rendra frowned in wonder, “Why? I just got to.”

“Kak kok can stay in Papa who is grieving again? Is Brother more concerned with his sister's wife than our Papa who is in need of the presence of his children here?”

“Reen! What the fuck is you calling me and lecturing me like this.”

“Kak,-“

Tutt…..

All the passengers of the car were instantly speechless hearing the voice of the commander who climbed several octaves. Never once did they hear the father's high voice like this.

“What's up, Pa?” ask Anugrah curious.

“Show? That's how Cut used to play in getting rid of the position of the late Mama from next to her son. He was so good at acting that Rendra believed in his wife. Just like me, Mama can tell you everything about your sly sister-in-law's behavior.” Reni who has not come home for a long time, of course, she does not know many things that have happened between her mother and her brother-in-law.

“Mama never told you this long.”

“Which might Mama tell you the same story. He doesn't want to make you restless and have a lot of thoughts there. You live too far away so Mama prefers to tell me who is always close to her. Do you know if Mama's pain also has something to do with your sister-in-law? Mama thought too much about your sister until she was depressed. Your mother hasn't visited your sister's house in a long time because she's uncomfortable with her. Moreover, your brother's devious wife jutsru influenced Anugrah to fight her grandmother. Just imagine how Mom felt when she came there? Mom like a stranger in her own son's house.”

“I didn't expect if Kak Cut was like that.”

“Do not judge people by their outward appearance alone, Ren. That's why you should stay here to watch your sister-in-law's movements. Have you kept your mother's jewelry well. Don't let it move on to your sister's wife later. You can only bite a finger as his biological child.”

Reni held back her anger and began to ignite emotions hearing many stories from Risma that she had not known. He was too busy with his household affairs to forget his mother who was far across the island.

“Assalamualaikum,” they said when they reached the doorstep of the residence of Mr. Fahri and Pure Mother.

“Walaikumsalam,” replied a woman wearing a negligee with an age almost the same as Cut.

“Helper Mak Wa,” whispered Faris in ear Cut.

“Mak Wa equals Pak Wa exists, Kak?” ask Faris.

“Ouh, Ada. Come log in!”

Cut remembers every inch of the house in his memory. This house does not change just the color of the wall paint that has changed. Household furniture has also changed a lot and the layout of the goods is not like before. The couple stared at their guests one by one. They were watching television in the living room.

“Buk, sir, there's Faris just as Wati doesn't know anything else.”

Cut approached Pure Mother and kissed her ex-mother-in-law's hand. “This Cut, Buk.” Pure Mother and Mr. Fahri were surprised. How not to be surprised if after a long time they have just met again.The last time they saw their ex-daughter-in-law was during the marriage of Reni and Bang Adi.

All who come shake hands alternately with a husband and wife. “This Iskandar?”

A mother's eyes will never lie. Pure Mother still holds tightly the hands of the grandson who is now an adult. “You look a lot like your father.” The tears also shed. Pure Mother and Pah Fahri moved and sad when staring at the beauty of his son in the figure of the grandson. Pure mother drew Iskandar in her arms. The guilt of having expelled the boy that night had not gone away in them. Sara regrets that come too late even prayers they always say in the hope of meeting the child again.

No one was unmoved at the sight before them at this moment. A very stifling sight of the chest. Mr. Fahri also hugged the grandson tightly. Iskandar felt happy, it turns out that all this time he was so expected by his grandparents. “Many grandchildren have been born but you are the special one. You are our dear grandson from the past until now. I'm sorry we haven't seen you in all this time. We can't go far anymore, let alone get on a plane. Forgive us, Nak.” Said Mr. Fahri sobbing in the arms of the grandson.

Now it's Anugrah's turn to shake hands with the grandmother, “I'm not hugged too, Nek?” celtuk Anugrah who got a small blow on his arm. Pure Mother laughed softly then hugged Anurgrah a glance. Rendra approaching, “Sorry, Ma because only now can bring home a grandson, Mama.” Said Rendra while kissing Pure Mother's hand.

“Thank you for taking good care of her and taking good care of her until she grows up.” Pure Mother sincerely said and hugged Rendra.

“No, Ma. Rendra had dumped Iskandar into the pesantren because of frequent fights in school.” Guaru Rendra broke the mood.

“You should thank your Papa. If you weren't thrown into the pesantren, what would you be now? Look at you now so handsome and already titled ‘haji’” everyone is laughing at the joke of Pure Mother.

When they tell a lot of things, Anugrah is actually venting her curiosity. He is currently opening a photo album that is still left after being hit by the tsunami. He compared Faisal's face to his brother's. “It is fitting that Big Brother is handsome, Papa Fais is handsome as well as even more handsome than Big Brother. Wow, my taste is not canned.” It was the Anugrah that made everyone look at him.

“You are right, Papa your brother is handsome but darling, I don't know where he is now? Is he alive or is he dead? No one knows.” Mommy Pure Silly.

“You guys stayed here, huh? What do you want to eat? Let Grandma ask Kak Wati to cook or we buy satay, want?” tawar the grandmother.

“Sate? Sate what? satay Madura or Sate Padang?” ask Anugrah.

“Sate Mateng's. Let Om Faris buy.”

“I'm coming!” sela Anugrah's.

“I too!” sahut Iskandar's.

BapakFahri gave up a hundred thousand to buy satay. “Papa don't want to come? Later curious, you know.” Goda Anugrah's. Rendra stood up and followed his son. He allowed his wife to talk a lot with his ex-laws.

“Papa not afraid Mama will reminisce about the good times with Papa Fais?”
