Chapter 12

Aqilah and Azzam were happy when they came home with their mother and sister. Moreover, Attar now looks cheerful again. The little boy was eating voraciously while playing with his broken car. The atmosphere of yesterday's quiet house is now starting to feel crowded again. 

"Does Brother still have to go back to being a treatment, Mom?" ask Aqilah who sat beside Rinjani while massaging the shoulder of the woman who had given birth to her.

"Yes, until the disease is declared cured by a doctor," replied the woman in a creamy hijab.

Mother and the firstborn, prepared raw materials to make cassava chips, while Azzam wanted to play Attar in the family room. Occasionally the sound of laughter from the two boys and make Rinjani's heart feel calm and happy. In her heart, she always thanked the Almighty God. Because, thanks to Him he is still given the opportunity to raise his youngest son, with the earlier known hereditary diseases of his family.

Rinjani was very surprised when he heard the story of Aqilah, if the man who is often called om Bagas overnight stay at his house. His little heart was afraid of slander in the future. Although Aqilah has said that the man claimed to be a distant brother to Mr. RT and the people there.

"Next time do not let strangers into the house" Rinjani reminded his eldest son.

"But, om Bagus is not a stranger to big brother, ma'am," concluded the 9-year-old little girl.

Rinjani also gave an explanation why it should not be arbitrary to include people who do not have family ties to their homes. In addition to avoiding slander from others, also to keep themselves from the whispers of the devil. Aqilah apologized to her mother and promised not to repeat again.

The life of the Rinjani family goes on as usual. Attar took his treatment well because Rinjani always gave all the best for her son. Fortunately from the sale of chips and washing laborers, earning a considerable amount of money. Likewise, there is a donation of money from the residents to help treatment that cannot be borne by the purchase of drugs by the government.

Rinjani has lived 6 months as a single parent of three small children. There are so many things that he loves that he has been through all this time. Even so he felt strong and patient, because his three children were the source of his life.

Today is the class increase for Aqilah and Azam. Where usually all parents of students come to school to receive their child's report and the teacher will tell what developments the child has experienced. Then, what points must be considered by parents so that their children become better again the new school year later.

Rinjani's feelings are sad at this time, because last year there was a God who accompanied him when taking a report belonging to Aqilah or Azzam, who was still sitting on the bench in kindergarten.

When he recalled the moment with his family, the tears of the woman always shed without him being able to bear. Usually the most spirit God when going to school his son, he will help prepare all the needs of their children. However, now only himself and his two children prepared their needs.

"Mom, you will go up to the stage to recite a poem" Aqilah said excitedly.

Of course Rinjani feels very happy because her children are always trying to be the best in their class. Both Aqilah and Azzam usually get rank 1 and the Gods will give prizes to appreciate their achievements.

"Mom's happy that Sister will be performing on stage later. What poem will you bring?" asked Rinjani while putting on nice clothes for Attar.

The little girl simply shook her head while smiling mischievously to her mother. "Secret."

Rinjani just chuckled in response to the answer from her daughter. He had to be patient to know the content of the poem that was kept secret by him until Aqilah performed and acted on stage.

That day Aqilah went on stage and recited a poem about 'Mother'. The little girl stood on the stage watched by hundreds of people.

Moms, Moms,

You are the most noble woman on the face of the earth.

Moms, Moms,

You have been pregnant with me for 9 months and 10 days.

Moms, Moms,

So that I know how beautiful and glorious the universe of God's creation is.

Moms, Moms,

You are the one who raised and educated me to be what I am today.

Moms, Moms,

How great is your sacrifice to your children.

Despite so many obstacles and obstacles you face to support your children.

Your struggle is full of blood and sweat.

Moms, Moms, 

Forgive your children if things go wrong

Forgive your children who cannot repay all your kindness.

Moms, Moms,

Your love all the time, your love for life.

Moms, Moms, 

We all love you and love you.

Read the poem with great interest. Her tears were breaking from the beginning in voice. Not only did he cry, but many people there felt the same way. So too with Rinjani. The woman cried while holding Attar. He tried not to break the sound of his sobs.

Immediate applause rumbled across the school grounds. They really liked the look of Aqilah just now.

The distribution of the report has been completed and according to the predictions of school friends, if Aqilah will return to become champion 1. The little girl brought a lot of gifts because in addition to being a class champion and reading poetry. He also won the quiz given by the school. Champion craved and achievers in the highest grades of the sub-district.

Azzam also won 1st place as well as several MTQ and Azdan races. Besides that he also became a sharp disciple.

"I'm sorry mom, yeah, kid. This time I can't give you any gifts. Only prayer can I give you" Rinjani said bitterly.

The next day Bagaskara came to Rinjani's house. However, there was only Aqilah who was in the house. Rinjani is going to the hospital for Attar's treatment and goes with Azzam.

"So you're home alone?" tanya Bagaskara who is now sitting on the front porch chair of the house.

"Yes. Because Azzam said he would take care of Mama and Attar," replied Aqilah who sat in front of his guests.

Bagaskara was happy to hear the little girl's words. He knew that Azzam was a responsible boy and always tried to look after and protect his mother and brothers.

"Om, why did you come here so early in the morning?" aqilah asked and the man was surprised when asked like that by Aqilah.

What answers will Bagaskara give? Wait for it to go, yeah!
