Fitri Raihana's
eps 20's
At night at Fandi's residence, in the kitchen.
Tonight Fitri helped Fatma and auntie cook in the kitchen. They made a special meal to welcome Fandi from out of town.
More precisely, the aunt and Fatma just sat down to see Fitri cooking. After Fatma and aunt peeled the ingredients, and cut the vegetables, they were no longer allowed to work by Fitri. The rest, Fitri himself took over cooking.
”Mistress, young Miss is already good at cooking. Did the young Miss secretly learn a cooking course?” His whisper to Fatma.
”I also didn't know that Hana was in cooking lessons. But if Hana took the course, Ardi would have told me. Never mind, Bi, I'm grateful my son can cook. After this, Auntie will only help clean the house. For cooking... will be expertly picked by Hana.” Fatma whispered back in her aunt's ear.
”Times should be so, Madam? Later Bibi's salary will be reduced if Aunty does not cook.” The aunt had a sad face to see Fatma.
Fatma smiled. ”Not to be sad, Bi. Bibi's salary every month remains as usual! Will not be cut, not one bit!”
”But, Aunty feels more unwell. Salary is high, his job is just cleaning the house doang. It doesn't fit!” Aunty felt dissatisfied also unkind to the host, where she worked. He did not want to eat a blind salary.
”No need to think that no! Does cleaning the house also include work? After all, Hana is a woman who will have a family someday, it is only natural that she does kitchen work. Otherwise, how could she please her husband later if she could not cook. Didn't Auntie know it's been a long time I wanted to teach her to cook but. she always refused and I can't force her because she's so weak.”.
”Iya. I know that, Mrs.”
Fitri had finished cooking, he held a fish plate along with the sauce and also a vegetable plate in both hands. He put the cooked food on the table. Fitri was confused to see the sad face of the aunt.
”Aunt why, Ma? His face looks sad!”
The aunt stood up and helped Fitri arrange the food on the table.
”Aunt is okay, Hana. Aunty was just a little moved to see Hana who was good at cooking,” replied Fatma lying.
Fitri smiled. ”Oh so.” He continued to prepare food on the table.
”Already, Non. Let Auntie put the food on the table. Miss just sit with Madam to talk.” The Aunt prevented Fitri from taking glasses, drinking water and everything else.
”It's okay, Bi. Every now and then Hana helps Auntie,” Fitri still prepare food on the table.
”But..” The aunt's words stopped when she saw Fatma's head. He also let Fitri prepare food and other necessities on the table. After all is done, the food is covered with a serving hood.
”All ready! Just waiting for papa to come home and we eat together,” said Fitri, her lips engrave her sweet smile.
”Ok! Then let's go ahead. We wait for papa there,” invite Fatma.
”Ok!” Fitri with pleasure.
They both went ahead, in the living room. Fatma turned on the tv and took the tv remote and sat down on the chair.
While Fitri, he was looking for his brother. His brother was not seen in the front room. He looked for his brother in the room. But there was nothing in the room either.
”Mama, brother where? In his room there is no.” asked Fitri.
”Try searching on the terrace of the house. Perhaps your brother is there waiting for papa to come.” Fatma replied but her eyes still looked at the television screen.
Fitri went to the terrace, her brother was also nowhere to be seen.
Is it possible that you're in the park?
In garden.
He stepped into the park. From far away, he saw a man sitting on a hanging swing. Fitri smiled as she approached the man.
”Kakak no longer think what?” fitri asked, he sat on another hanging swing. Ardi saw Fitri.
”Eh...Hannah. Already done cooking?”
”Iya. Just wait for papa to come and eat. Brother again think what?” Once again Fitri asked Ardi.
”Sister is thinking about what busyness will wait for sister tomorrow.. after these two days brother holiday.”.
”Oh, kirain sister is thinking about her lover sister who is at her workplace sister.”
”Love? Emang Hana ever see sister walking together with women?”
Fitri shakes. As long as I woke up from fainting until now, I had never seen my brother walk alone with a girl. Except, me and mama, he thought.
”Did you ever tell me about a woman to Hana, mama, and papa?” Again Ardi asked Fitri. Fitri shakes back. Ardi stood up from his seat. He stood in front of Fitri.
”Kakak has promised not to look for a girl before brother saw his sister this brother married,” he said, his hand stroked Fitri's head gently. Fitri. It's moved. His sister loved him so much.
”If Hana asks sister to find boyfriend now, will sister follow?”
Ardi shakes.
”If Hana is looking for big sister, will big sister refuse?”
”Depends! If the girl is beautiful, kind, respectful and loves Hana, mom, and papa, sister will accept it.”
Fitri. If I thought, Hana would have betrothed her brother to her friend, Alin. But, it's Hana. I don't know that woman yet. So, I haven't been able to trust my sister with him.
”Hum...? There is no brother. If you want, Hana will find the girls in Hana's college for sister. Brother want?” Tawar Hana's.
”You want to sell brother?”
”Hah! No, brother, where there is so! Hana is just offering it, let brother have also a lover.”
”No not wanting! Doesn't my sister love me? Then, why wait for another girl to love sister?”
”Bed, brother! We love, love, because of family. If another girl loves older sister, that girl will be a companion to life sister.”
Ardi smiled. Thank goodness my sister is normal. What am I supposed to be afraid of? his mind. He ruffled Fitri's hair.
”Kakak...my hair..” Complain Fitri while tidying her hair.
Brumm! Skiit! The sound of cars stopping in front of their houses. Ardi and Fitri looked at each other for a moment.
”Papa coming!” Say them both with pleasure.
Fitri rushed to run to the terrace of the house welcoming the arrival of Fandi. Ardi followed Fitri by a quick walk to the terrace.
Fitri sees Fandi, her father just got off the car. He approached the papa. ”Papa is home?” He kissed the back of his papa's palm.
”Iya, dear.” replied Fandi, he smilingly caressed Fitri's head.
Fitri grabbed the briefcase from his hand. ”Let Hana help bring,” he said.
Fandi smiled again, letting Hana do what she wanted to do.
”Papa.” greet Ardi. Ardi also shook his papa's hand. ”Come in Pa.” Ardi opened the door.
”Hum.” says Fandi. They all went into the house.
”Do you take good care of Papa's wife and Papa's daughter, Ardi?” ask Fandi to Ardi.
”Alhamdulilah! Ardi carried out Papa's duties well.” replied Ardi with pride, hitting his chest.
”Iya, Papa. Brother Ardi is very responsible.” continued Fitri.
”Good! This is the new son of Papa.” praise Fandi while embracing the shoulder of his son.
They arrived at the family room. Fandi saw his wife seriously staring at the television screen.
”Mama, Papa is home.” Hana let out a small shout as they reached the living room.
Fatma stood up, she saw her husband. ”Papa, just got home?” She did the same as her two children, touching the back of Fandi's hand.
”Iya, Ma.” replied Fandi.
”Papa, sit! Papa must be tired. After being lost tired, we just ate.” said Fatma.
Fandi nodded, he sat down next to his wife. His hands loosened the tie around his neck. Ardi sat next to Fandi and Fitri sat next to Fatma.
”How's Mama doing?” ask Fandi.
”As Papa saw, Mama is fine.” replied Fatma.
”Alhamdulillah!” sahut Fandi's.
”How is Papa working there? Is everything going well?” ask Fatma.
”Alhamdulillah, everything went smoothly.” replied Fandi. ”You all ate?”
”Not yet, will you wait for Papa.” Fitri answered.
”Oh, then..ayo go eat. Papa is very hungry.” invite Fandi.
”Iya, Pa.”
They all went to the kitchen, at the dining table. They all sat in their own places.
”Pa, this is all Hana loh cuisine, Pa!” fatma.
”Hah, yes? Is that right Hana?” ask Fandi to Hana.
Hana just smiled, responding.
”Papa did not expect, Papa girl is already good at cooking.” praise Fandi. Fatma and Ardi smiled at Fitri who was happy to be praised by her father.
They also take their own food. They eat in peace.
