Mother

Mother
7. Shadow Mother


Sasa arrived at the terminal about fifteen minutes after he boarded the shuttles from his home,


After that he immediately looked for a bus that headed towards his old house in one of the buffer cities of Jakarta,


Sasa glanced at his watch which had now left at nine o'clock, if he found the bus and set off immediately, then he might arrive at his old house about half eleven in the afternoon,


Sasa wanderlust looking for the bus he will ride, he will ride,


Fortunately, no need to wait long, he had immediately found the bus he was looking for that was almost leaving,


"Quick Saaa. hurry..."


Sayup sounded like there was the sound of her mother who was out of nowhere,


The sound was like being carried away by the wind, just faint-faced but still could be heard clearly by Sasa's ears, he said,


Sasa seemed to wander around again looking for the source of the sound, but clearly there was no Mother there,


Among the many humans passing by in the terminal, Sasa did not find any Mother in between,


Ah well, of course, her mother had been buried in the ground, but Sasa knew she was living somewhere else, and he was unhappy, she said,


He wanted Sasa to do something, only then could he come back,


Yes back, even though Mother returned in a different figure, Sasa did not care, the important thing is that Mother returned, did not leave her alone, she said,


Sasa can make up for his mistakes, he can be a child who according to later, Mommy will definitely be happy and at home if Sasa is so. Think Sasa.


"Miss,"


Suddenly a clap from behind Sasa stood up so surprisingly,


Sasa immediately looked back and saw a man standing there,


"You're up no?"


Ask the man, though,


Sasa who was asked by the man who turned out to be the Bus conductor quickly nodded, too,


"Yes sir, sure,"


Sasa said, who then rushed up to the bus that was already about to leave,


The atmosphere on the bus was quite full, Sasa was quick to find a seat, and,


There was one seat left not far from the back door, Sasa quickly sat there,


Shortly after Sasa sat down, the bus conductor also boarded, he then stood at the front door of the bus and gave a signal that the bus was leaving immediately,


The bus driver seemed ready behind the wheel, the roar of the bus engine began to get clearer, and more and more, along with the aroma of burning fuel and also the speed of the bus backwards from where the bus is parked to then be taken drove out of the terminal,


The bus conductor shouted the destination of the bus going anywhere, the noise of the bus engine and also the sound of many passengers chatting so dizzying,


But...


Sasa took off his backpack and moved it on his lap, as he was about to take out his phone, he accidentally looked towards the seat in front of him which was a two-seat hose near the entrance of the bus that had a conductor, he said,


Sasa looked surprised, so surprised he seemed to stand up and then immediately walked towards the chair,


The Mother...


He saw Mother sitting there and looked at her,


But...


When Sasa was near and patted the woman sitting there, the face was not at all similar to Mother,


"What's wrong, brother?"


Asked the woman, who was surprised to be patted by Sasa, who of course he did not feel familiar with, he said,


Sasa looked clumsy, he hurriedly bowed in apology for making the female passenger surprised,


"It's okay Mom, I was like seeing my Mother,"


Sasa said softly, but made all passengers who saw Sasa so pity,


"Where is Dik?"


Ask a few mother-mom passengers who surely their coco soul always thrashed, he said,


Sasa looked bitterly smiling,


"Died, Mother is dead."


Answer Sasa anyway.


"Oh, be patient, brother,"


"Patience son,"


And so forth.


The voices continued to be heard accompanying Sasa until he returned to his seat again.


However, as soon as he got to his seat, Sasa just had to come back surprised, because...


Jrng...


A young man sitting next to Sasa, who was wearing a hat and asleep leaning against the window of the bus, woke up and opened his hat,


"Ka... You're..."


Sasa looked at the young man who was seen raising his palm representing the word,


"Hi,"
