Jasminka/Orchid
I leave

The Inca improved a little though still looked weak after two days out of the hospital and rested completely at home.

today Alma is helping the Inca prepare for the needs of Jasmine who will return to campus.

The Inca forced themselves to cook Jasmine's favorite food, although Alma and Jasmine forbade it.

"this is all you can do for your children.

"tomorrow you cook and eat yourself in your hostel".

"so let it be for today, huh?. mama strong really. is there aunty Alma who helps mama". Inka convinced Jasmine

"you sit here sweet and be your cooking judge for today.

Jasmine who initially saw her mother cooking also finally helped her mother.

...----------------...

Alma and Inka prepare to deliver Jasmine to the bus terminal that leads to the city where Jasmine is studying.

"Jasmine.. ". call for Inca

"Let's catch the bus going away, son.

Jasmine exits her room towards the porch and closes the door and locks it, turning around and finding herself stared at by the two old men who are smiling.

Inka and Alma were stunned to see the appearance of Jasmine who had been veiled today.I don't know what motivation made Jasmine change her appearance to be like her.

Inka approached her daughter who became more beautiful and even looked cute with her hijab.

The Inca confirmed the location of Jasmine's hijab that was slightly tilted. she saw something lacking in the look of her hijab. then she took a small pin with a jasmine flower motif pinned at the end of her pashmin attached to her head.

Inca put it on Jasmine's hijab and attached it to her chest. Inka smiled at the look of her daughter's hijab was perfect, then she kissed her daughter's forehead softly

"you're getting sweet, baby". Praise the sincere Inka

"and more cute". added Alma complete the Inca praise for Jasmine

"ahh mama.. aunty. can aja.

they laughed a little that morning.

"sook off". Alma gave up the warmth this morning.

in the car Jasmine smiles happily there is something that changes her life, namely her mother who gave her guidance last night

fb off

after Jasmine finished the maghrib prayer, she listened to her mother recite the Quran. indeed it was her mother's custom after the mghrib prayer to recite the Quran.

it's just that in these three days his mother read the same surah and there is a sentence of qur an that his mother repeated with a sobbing tone.

Fabi ayyi aalaaa'i Rabbikumaa tukazzibaan

Which favor of your Lord do you deny?

Jasmine was so curious then searched on google about its meaning. His heart beats when reading the meaning.he is touched. all this time he is not good at gratitude.he forgets his rabb who gave him a favor that is not only a sustenance of food, money though not abundant. but he was given other sustenance in the form of neighbors and friends of good friends, even an extraordinary mother for him.

therefore today Jasmine decided to hijab as a form of gratitude and keep her aura so as not to be seen just anyone what else is not her muhrim.

his mother once suggested a hijab but Jasmine answered him always with the word "later"."

her mother never forced herself to look because the hijab business was a matter of the heart.

that word is always said by his mother, until finally Jasmine had to move to MDN because of college there.

until last night the sentence was ringing back in his ear, and he remembered his mother.

...----------------...

"mengapo did not use the Jasmine sajo train faster.in the case of aunty has booked tickets with uda Danang".

"yes. sooner the sample". Inka.

"i prefer to take a bus travel aunt than take a train. it is more comfortable anyway. continue to take the train not necessarily able to sit next to the window. you can't enjoy the view of another city." Jasmine was clearly smiling

"be careful yo on the street. find a partner who is a woman sajo. ask for a change of seatnyo". Alma advice

"do not carelessly eat and drink from others. Jasmine has brought her own earlier, right?. mama same aunty cook a lot earlier special stock you.

Jasmine smiled and nodded her head.

Jasmine looked at the Inca inside. she hugged him long ago and drowned his face in the recess of his mother's neck. The clear water flowed continuously.he could not help but feel the tightness that came crashing in his chest.

"Jasmine". The Inca called out to him and gently stroked his back.

still in her arms.inka took her daughter's head gently and cupped her sweet face.she smiled sorely at the sight of her daughter's wet eyes.

"Jasmine. take good care of yourself. do not forget to pray. njaji at least once a week if you do not want every day". Inka advised her daughter.

"it's steady hijab. don't take it off again, baby. take good care of yourself well. remain Istiqamah even though the situation is again difficult. ". continued the Inca

"remember this dear. as good as help is God's help.so never give up just because of our present circumstances.

Jasmine nodded her head in a nod with a smile as well as tears breaking

"mama also take good care of yourself.don't ga in chemo again if I don't exist.mama should continue to go chemo huh ma??. jasmine said with her lips that only Inca and Alma could understand.

"promise first".ink Jasmine

"yes mama Promise".Inka promise

they washed each other's tears and let go of hugs.

Jasmine bid Alma a farewell and hugged him for a moment

"be careful yo. take good care of yourself. keep the spirit of learningnyo".

"yes aunty. please take care of your mom?. force mom if mama does not want to be in chemo. tell me let me go home and stop college". Jasmine said while staring at her mother.

The Inca who was looked at like that. smiled and shook his head.

"Jasmine leaves ma. aunty.".

The Inca and Alma nodded their heads.

Jasmine boarded her bus and took a seat beside the window facing the Inca and Alma.

with a smile Jasmine looked at her mother from the window of the bus as the bus left the terminal and the city where her mother settled.

for some reason his heart was so sad for his departure this time, he felt as if this was the last one to meet his mother face to face.

along with the bus that runs the driver tunes a radio that still has a wave signal as his travel companion.

somehow coincidentally the song played by the radio operator is the same as his feelings today...

Jasmine was so washed away by the glance of her song that she also broke into tears when she remembered the mother. so much she cried in silence. she felt tired and fell asleep.
