Mother is Not a Night Woman
I'm trying it

The day has gone up in the evening. As usual, Via will tell Lyla a story before falling asleep. The little girl had yawned several times, a sign that she had become sleepy, but both eyes were still reluctant to shut.

"Mother .." call her while resting her head on her chest.

"Yes Dear ..."

"Mother don't see Om Wila again, yes... Later the mother will be colonized with Om Wila," he said while leaning his head on the chest of the mother.

Via smiled, then kissed the little girl's forehead. I want to laugh when I remember that incident. The hero who suddenly became very gentle since returning from Bali was completely different from the previous Wira. The woman then stroked Lyla's face tenderly.

"Lyla baby, you want to hear me, right?"

Lyla replied with a slow nod. "Mau mother's. Lyla's a good boy."

"Smart child mother ..." He kissed that adorable face again. "Lyla remember, you ever told me about the story of the Prophet Joseph?"

For a moment, Lyla rolled her eyeballs, a sign of thinking. Then then shake. Via always tells a different story every night, so little Lyla has trouble remembering.

"Forgot, Mother ..."

"Then, try Lyla remember ..., mother ever tell of the Prophet Joseph who was always colonized by his brothers?"

Little Lyla glared again. Trying to remember that story. A moment later, he began to remember. "Yes, Mother. Lyla remember. Prophet Joseph was banished to sumul ..."

"Well, my great daughter .. can remember now," Via again kissed the little girl's forehead. "Lyla listen mommy yes ... The Prophet Yusuf had a noble nature, even though he was colonized, banished by his brother, even slandered, the Prophet Joseph never took revenge. Because revenge is soiling our hearts. Joseph always forgave his brothers. Forgiveness is a noble trait. Lyla understand?"

"Call, Mother. No grudge should always forgive."

"Lyla wants to have a noble nature like the Prophet Joseph?" ask again.

Lyla nodded softly, "You, Mother ..."

"Lyla must forgive the wrong person. There is no revenge. God loves the same forgiving child." With full gentleness Via explained again. "Om Wira is Lyla's father. Just like the brothers of the Prophet Joseph, Lyla's father had also done wrong. Lyla should be able to forgive me. Can't be mad at me just keep."

Lyla's speechless. His face suddenly glum. The actions of the Hero are still recorded clearly in his memory which will always make him feel afraid. He realized that healing the trauma of a child was not easy.

"But Lyla is afraid of the same Om Wila, Mother."

"Why afraid? Daddy loves Lyla... I'd hug Lyla too." Via grabbed a photo inside the drawer of the nightstand, then showed it to Lyla. "Look, this is a picture of my father. This little baby that my father carried, Lyla as a baby."

Lyla noticed the photo where Wira was holding a newborn. Then look at the mother. "This is Lyla, Mother?" tanyanya pointed at the photo of the baby.

"Yes, Honey ... That was Lyla at birth. Look, daddy's carrying Lyla. It means I love Lyla."

"But why Om Wila lyla and Lyla together Mother?" Both of his eyes were back in tears, recalling the day that Wira scolded him for playing in a room.

"Father by accident, dear. That's why I want to apologize to Lyla. If Lyla doesn't forgive, her father will be sad. Lyla wants to be a forgiving child."

Lyla looked back at the photo. "Om Wila love Lyla?" ask her to make sure.

"It's a pity" replied Via nodding. "Lyla calls him father, not Om Wira. Lyla will forgive me?"

"You Mother ..."

"Yes Mother. Lyla wants to hug me."

The next day...

After reviewing the construction site of an amusement park, Wira and Ivan are taking advantage of a break at a cafe. The hero is looking at the photo of Lyla that has just been sent via the WhatsApp application. The little girl was playing in the garden behind the house with her Oma.

"What's wrong with you? I'm starting to feel you're a little weird, smiling to yourself" said Ivan, sneaking a cup of coffee.

"Via just sent me a picture of Lyla. Looky!" He showed the photo to Ivan. "my son is very funny, right?"

"Yes ... By the way, didn't you ask for a picture of the bundle?"

"You mean?" tanya Wira made Ivan laugh.

"I think you're smiling because you remember Via's face."

"You are this ... My relationship with Via hasn't gone that far. I was just starting with him."

Ivan was silent for a while before finally looking seriously at Wira. "Isn't Via a good woman? You're lucky to have it" said Ivan. "Wira, have you forgotten Shera?"

Suddenly the smile that adorned Wira's face disappeared. He took a deep breath, leaning his back on the chair. "You don't have to ask, Van! You know how I am."

Wira's remarks made Ivan scratching his head unclear. "You still love him?"

"I can't forget Shera. I'd be lying if I said I didn't have any feelings for her anymore. But now I have Via. I don't love him yet. But she's my wife. Moreover, he has sacrificed a lot for my son."

"Yes, there aren't many women like Via in this world."

"She's a perfect woman. Her tenderness and affection for Lyla was enough for me."

Ivan patted his best friend's shoulder. Ivan knows very well how the figure of Wira is very difficult to fall in love. But if you love, it will be hard to forget. "Try to love Via. And forget Shera. You always say no to Shera, but your heart says something else."

"Van, you know exactly what my relationship with Shera is like. Even Lyla's presence was something unintentional. Now I'm trying to start everything with Via."

"Goodoo. I'm glad to hear it" Ivan said.
