Two weeks later Mama Marsha got the news that her Grandmother Mira who was in Semarang was sick. Mama Marsha's birth mother is Mama Ria, or Grandma Ria.
As a child, Mama Marsha also wanted to go to Semarang. However, as a parent, Mama Marsha is also confused with Mira and Marvel schools. Especially his daughter Mira, already in 3rd grade High School.
"Pa, Mama Ria is sick in Semarang. If I go back to Semarang, how about Pa?" mama Marsha asked Papa Abraham.
Although actually Mama Marsha's relationship with her own biological mother is somewhat not getting along. Mama Marsha is closer to her mother-in-law, Mama Diah. However, even though it does not get along, the heart of a child may not have the heart to see his own mother in pain.
"How long in Semarang?" ask Papa Abraham.
"Week to a month, Pa. Poor Mama, her son is just me" replied Mama Marsha.
"Well, I'll go back to Semarang if it's only a week. Marvel just let it go, Ma," replied Papa Abraham.
"Mira how's Pa? She's also in school and already in third grade" replied Mama Marsha.
"We'll call Mira first, Ma. Inevitably he was allowed a week to return to Semarang, "he replied.
Finally Mama Marsha and Papa Abraham went up the second floor to Mira's room. There both of them, want to talk about Mama Marsha's plan to return to Semarang. At least Mira is already big too, so can be invited to share by Mama and her Papa.
"Mira, Mama and Papa want to talk" said Mama Marsha as she entered her daughter's room.
"Yes, Ma, Pa" he answered by opening the door for his Mom and Dad.
"Mira, look. Grandma Ria in Semarang is sick. So, Mama and Papa intend to go back to Semarang. Mama will probably be in Semarang one week. Papa and Marvel. However, if Grandma's condition has not improved, Mama will be in Semarang first. Can you take a week off school permit?" ask Mama Marsha.
Mira looks at the faces of Mama and Papa. "Sorry Mama, Papa .. but next week there's exam practice, Ma. So, Mira has to go to school," she replied.
That was how it was in third grade. Lots of exam practice ahead of the National Final Examination. Mira also did not want to miss the lesson.
"So, how's Mira?" ask Mama Marsha.
Honestly, he was confused too. Leaving Mira alone in Jakarta was difficult for her. Because, all this time Mama Marsha also never left Mira alone.
Although Mira has said she can take care of herself, Mama Marsha still feels worried about her daughter. Then Mama Marsha also spoke to her beloved husband. "How better, Pa?"
"Mira we're going to her father-in-law's house, Ma. Our neighbor is also Mira's father-in-law. For one week," replied Papa Abraham.
At once Papa Abraham had an idea to leave Mira to the house of his father-in-law, the Agastya Family. Maybe because they have known the Agastya family for a long time, so they strongly believe that Mama Sara and Papa Abraham can take care of Mira.
"You were at Agastya's house for a week, huh, Ra? Mama Sara and Papa Belva are also your parents. They will take care of you" said Papa Abraham.
"Pa, but Mira shies," she replied.
"Not to be confused. They will take care of you. Later Mama and Papa will take you there well," replied Papa Abraham.

Next Day ….
Before heading to the station, Mama Marsha, Papa Abraham, and her two children came to the Agastya family residence. This time because they want to leave Mira for one week as long as they go to Semarang.
"Besan, can we get Mira for this one week? It was all because Grandma Ria in Semarang was sick," Papa Abraham told the two men.
"certainly could. Instead we are happy because it is believed to nurture Mira. Aman, this is also Mira's home," replied Papa Belva.
When given the mandate to look after Mira for one week, Papa Belva was happy. It was all because Mira was no one else to him, but rather Mira was his daughter-in-law.
"Sleep here, Mira. You use the room Eiffel may, would use the guest room may. Surely not able to room with Elkan well, waiting to graduate," replied Mama Sara.
"Why isn't Mira home alone?" ask Mira. Mira is not a cowardly person either. At home, it's no problem for Mira.
"Don't Mira. Here at least there is Mama Sara and Papa Belva who take care of you" Papa Abraham replied firmly.
Finally inevitably, Mira nodded her head. Must be at her in-laws' house for one week. There was Elkan who put a smile on his lips. Meanwhile, Mira looked confused. Being at the Agastya family home will actually make himself often meet with Elkan as well.
