Mas Duda Looking For Mom Milk
Apply Officially
It doesn't feel like nearly two weeks have passed. Anaya and Tama's routine is still as usual. They meet in the morning before Tama leaves for the office and also in the evening, Tama will deliver Anaya to go home. Everything goes as it should, even though the flowers of love in the heart are still blooming. However, as Tendean's father had told him, Tama tried to take care of herself, not to do more to Anaya before the yellow janur curved.
In the afternoon, before Anaya returned home, apparently Mama Rina approached Anaya and said something to Anaya.
“Anaya, tell your Dad well. This weekend Mama and Papa will play to your house,” said Mama Rina.
“Oh, yes Ma ... later Anaya conveyed to Dad. What time is Ma?” ask Anaya again.
“Maybe at 19.00, don't bother just us who came,” Mama Rina replied.
Anaya nodded her head, indeed the letters to register the marriage had begun to be taken care of Tama. It's just that, as a person who does not know what the wedding procedure is like, Anaya also does not know the details. Because, in the past, the marriage only happened under the hands.
“Good Ma .. yes already, Anaya back home yes Ma,” reply to Mama Rina.
“Iya .. be careful well. Tama was sent, right?” ask Mama Rina.
“Iya, wait for Mas Tama still above,” reply Anaya.
Indeed Anaya has officially called Tama with the name ‘Mas’, just to say it in front of others makes him feel embarrassed. So, there are times when Anaya seems to hold back laughter when calling the name Mas Tama.
The awaited also apparently immediately came down by holding Citra. Seen Tama who handed Citra to Mama Rina, then she said goodbye to take Anaya for a while. Along the way to take Anaya, of course, there are many chats or stories that they share together. Hopefully, days like this will change with days together that can be lived every day.

When the weekend comes ….
Less than 19:00 p.m., the Tama family actually came to Anaya's house. Tama's family by wearing batik clothes to impress polite. There are also parcels of cakes and fruits brought by Mama Rina and Papa Budi. This became the second time for the old man to wave the bride-to-be to Tama. In the hearts of both, hope that this is the last for Tama. Both can have a long day.
“Excuse.” Papa Budi knocks on the door and says excuse me when he is at Anaya's house.
Apparently not too long ago, Anaya herself who opened the door for the Tama family.
“Let's go in Mama and Papa,” he said.
When the eyes of Anaya met with Tama who was wearing a batik shirt and carrying Citra made Anaya smile. The same is the case with Tama who also observed Anaya who at that time wore a batik dress with matching motifs. Indeed, both agreed to buy batik that they will wear today, not to forget the little Citra also wears a cute little batik dress.
“Please enter Mas,” greet Anaya with a smile looking at her bride-to-be.
“Still,” Reply Tama.
“Include me Father Anaya,” greet Father Tendean politely and while shaking the hands of Mama Rina and Papa Budi.
“We are Tama's parents,” reply Papa Budi.
The first time was awkward. However, Papa Budi immediately headed to the core of the event, which was to come to propose Anaya officially. Yes, the arrival of Tama's parents to Anaya's house is to ask Anaya to her parents to be Tama's escort.
“So like this Mr. Tendean, our goal here is to apply for Anaya. Some time ago, Tama asked us for permission to remarry and apparently the woman he loved was Anaya. So let us come to ask and make Anaya our daughter-in-law and daughter. Accompany Tama and also love Citra,” said Papa Budi.
Tendean's father also welcomed the proposal that came for his daughter. “I as Her Father Anaya also thank Anaya for being well received. Anaya has been made a member of his own family and is also loved there. I don't care as long as Anaya is willing as well. Whatever Anaya's happiness was that especially for me,” reply Dad Tendean.
“Nak Anaya, are you willing to accompany Tama and also become Mama for Citra?” ask Papa Budi to Anaya.
“Iya Pa... Anaya wants,” Anaya replied by nodding her head.
This time Anaya felt that a good man would ask her nicely too. Will not commit fraudulent actions to obtain it. Anaya could feel that Tama and her family were good people, so it felt like her heart was completely moved.
“Alhamdulillah,” says everyone present at the place.
“Tama, Dad still same message. Love and happiness Anaya. I'm leaving Anaya to you. Father's responsibility for Father's daughter will be over and changed hands with you. Households must always have a problem, just make it as something that will strengthen you both. Make it a thing to mature you both,” Tendean's father told Tama.
“Good Dad,” Reply Tama.
“About when can our children's second marriage take place? Are there any special conditions on the part of the female family?” ask Papa Budi.
“We don't exist. It's just, Anaya has a special request related to the happy day later,” reply Tendean Father.
Anaya smiled and looked at Mama Rina, Papa Budi, and Tama herself. “Uhm, Anaya wants to get married on Citra's birthday,” he said.
What was conveyed Anaya was enough to make the Tama family became astonished by it. Is there a special reason until Anaya wants to get married on Citra's birthday?
“Why Anaya?” ask Mama Rina.
Even if you calculate the idah period, the marriage can take place in approximately two weeks. However, if you have to wait for Citra's birthday, the wedding will take place in a month.
“On the day when Citra was born, Citra lost Mom. So, Anaya wants every anniversary celebration of our wedding later, Citra can know that the day where she lost her mother, will turn into a happy day because Citra has a new Mother. Mother who also loved him with all her heart even though Anaya did not give birth to him. The grief of losing Mom was never irreplaceable, but Anaya wanted it on her birthday, Citra considering that she had Mama. Anaya will always love Citra and give full love to Citra. Even if later Anaya could get pregnant again, Anaya's affection for Citra remained the same, it would never diminish. It's Anaya's promise,” he said.
Oh, my God, what a good and airy Anaya heart. As a person who has lost his mother, the sorrow of losing his mother is indeed very deep. Therefore, in the future Anaya wants Citra to know that she is also a Mother who loves her. Anaya is not the woman who gave birth to Citra, but she is the woman God sent to nurture and raise Citra.
