Healing
150. Time to Go

This morning our family woke up for the morning together, a new thing that we had never done so far. Usually we pray alone, and the little Syifa is also the hardest to wake up usually does not come at dawn.

I still give him freedom because the Syifa umuran is still very small to be disciplined to worship. But I often tried to invite him and give him a little knowledge, although in the end Syifa only woke up for a while and then slept again.

I don't know why there is a very happy feeling when you see this very rare and moving scene.

The sight of hugging each other and bowing to the older ones, I was lucky because my children could do positive things that even I had never taught.

Shaka's departure to Jogja today seems to make our hearts all intertwined with each other, like there is a common thread that binds our hearts to love each other more.

Surely me and Yoga will miss Shaka very much. He was one of the biggest reasons that brought me and Yoga back together. Because it was Shaka, who became one of my considerations to receive Yoga back even in a forced state.

Shaka is the source of strength that I had when I was in a time of adversity, he who made me never afraid to feel tired, and he is the one who became my greatest hope since long ago until now.

" Dad, mom... Shaka will have to go to Jogja, not Shaka disapprove of father and mother to take Shaka to get there, but later Shaka leaves and goes straight to campus after putting Shaka's things in the boarding house "

" I have to work because it's not a weekend, so if you want to know where I'm going, and how it's going, you and your mom just come in this weekend, or whenever you have a lot of time, Shaka will send the Shaka boarding address".

" Or if not let Kak Juna deliver you to Shaka boarding houses, because said Kak Juna's mother will take Shaka to Jogja".

It turns out that my son is very mature mind, even he has been looking for a boarding place before he got there. Indeed, technology today makes it so easy for humans to do this and that from a distance.

Pogung area, where Shaka ngekos, said Shaka who is close to the campus, and does not need to drive home from the trip, because the walk will only reach the campus within 10 minutes .

" Well if that's what you want, this weekend mom and dad will visit you and see where you're sniffing. But remember the message of father and mother, keep yourself there, even if you are away from father and mother, you can call father if you have difficulties. We can find solutions together" Yoga said.

Simple, but meaningful words are very deep. Somehow I felt that Shaka's departure for college in another city tightened our inner bond.

My son's new life will begin after we have breakfast together this morning. So will the new routine that Syifa and I will live.

I intend to find a place of tutoring for early childhood like Syifa. Not because of anything, I was just looking for a way so that Syifa did not feel so lost her brother after Shaka left later, because Shaka usually every day always played with her after school.

That's why I had to keep Syifa busy with her new routine. By including her to the tutelage Syifa will have new activities and new acquaintances who will distract her so as not to continue to miss her brother.

When we had breakfast, Juna came with mom and dad, I took them to breakfast together. They came to take Shaka away.

It was Juna who I trusted to deliver Shaka to Jogja, because Yoga was busy with his work, but I could not let Shaka go between the family drivers. That's why I asked Juna to deliver it. At least later I can ask Juna how the atmosphere and environment Shaka ngekos.

Not to mention that Shaka needs someone's help to arrange things in his new room, which is why, Juna is the most appropriate person I ask for help to deliver Shaka.

" It's all in, it's not a lot of stuff I carry, just basic daily needs, because the others I can buy myself there later Brother", I haven't answered, because the others I can buy myself there later, Shaka answered Juna's question first.

Juna nodded in understanding.

" Take the car carefully, do not have to speed, prioritize your safety, slowly that is important to get to the destination" said the mother who has been filled with water since.

" As busy as any activity you will be while studying there, you must still remember to pray and eat, take care of yourself and your own health while there, your family is far away here, you are not, can't take care of you if you're okay. So from today on, you are in charge of yourself. Don't worry people at home. Boys should be able to be independent", Papa does not want to lose to mama, even the message given is longer.

As for me, since then, I can only nod my head when my mother and papa convey the message to Shaka. My throat feels like it's stuck. Breakfast was just a few mouthfuls, but the vegetable side dish soup that berkuah, should stay neken without ngunyah, but somehow to swallow it feels so difficult.

Sadly, of course, but I must not show my sadness, Shaka went to fight and learn to be better. So I have to support him, and show that I am sincere and support him.

As she was about to leave, Shaka greeted everyone, even holding me for quite a while. I can still force these lips to comment on a smile, though maybe my expression looks very strange, like the Joker, a forced smile.

A speeding car takes Shaka and Juna away from this house. The wave of our hands ushered in Shaka's departure, in our hearts each calling for the best prayer and safety for my son Shaka.

Tears can no longer be held back. Mama hugged me to enter the house, as if to strengthen me who felt sad to be left behind by my son. Though himself also needs to be strengthened, because I really know how close mama and Shaka are all this time.

Shaka never changes his outlook on mama, he still considers mama to be his mother, not his grandmother, because Shaka still wants to feel the same affection as before. I don't mind it, because my mom has been Shaka's mom for 14 years.

If there was a question for me asking if time could go back in time, and I was given a chance to repeat to make a choice, I will answer I will change my choice by refusing to ask Yoga to do the forbidden thing, because indeed I regret making a fatal mistake as well as stupidity in my youth.

But if anyone asks regret or does not defend the life of my son Shaka, I will answer very loudly, if I have no regrets at all. Although it used to have to live with full struggle, in an environment that requires living by working hard to be able to continue living. I will keep my son Shaka.

Now all the hardships and hardships that I and my family have been through are over. I hope that we will live happily until the end of our lives. Although people live, of course, have to feel difficulties, but I hope that me and my family will easily pass through all the types of difficulties that we experience.

...Finishes...

We imitate positive things as learning materials for all of us. Living in this world we should always be faced with problems and choices, we must be responsible for the choices we have made. And we have to be optimistic and think positive if we can get through every problem that happens in our lives.

Do good things, then we can hope to reap good results as well.
