Muara Kasih Single Mother
Sweet Drizzle
"Handle Vi" said Pandu who reminded Ervita to hold on as she carried her motorcycle.
"Already Mas ... rear saddle handle really," he replied.
The guide smiled there, "Hand hold me can also do Vi," he replied. Maybe this time Pandu again gave the code so that Ervita would hold on to him. After all, Pandu probably wouldn't mind if Ervita held on to him, not on the motorcycle saddle.
When Pandu said that, Ervita felt her heart pounding. To his knowledge, all this time Pandu never said that to him, even keeping his distance and so appreciative of Ervita. What is the meaning of the man's words. But just think of it as the wind. Will not be carried away, or carried away by feelings (baper) because Ervita knows who he is and who Pandu is.
A few minutes drive, and now both of them have arrived home. Look Latang and Indi who play together in Pendopo house. As usual, they both played Little Pony dolls there. The guide took the time to ask Ervita.
"Did love Little Pony huh?" tanyanya while observing Indira who was playing.
"Yes Mas .. love Little Pony. He said later that his mother would buy Little Pony dolls, "Revita replied.
Pandu nodded his head and saw Lintang and Indi playing together. Seeing the arrival of Pandu and Ervita, Lintang walked and called his Om.
"Om Pandu ... play," he said.
"Yes, play with Indi ya Lintang .. get along together," he replied.
Little Indi also walked and seemed to ask for a sling to Pandu as well. "Oom Yayah" he said.
Pandu smiled and immediately carried Indira, even Pandu's hand moved and gave elusan at the top of Indira's head. When Pandu held her, Indira also seemed to focus her face on the shoulder of Pandu, with both hands wrapped around the neck of Pandu.
"It's fast, Ndu ... Pandu," said Mbak Pertiwi who suddenly came out of the house.
Pandu was silent, but he was still holding Indira there. Ervita who was standing in front of Pandu who was holding her son felt moved. Even a child as small as Indira can think that Pandu is his father.
Long enough Indira was silent in Pandu's arms, until finally Ervita also rubbed the back of her little daughter. "Yuk Indi already ... join Bunda yuk," he asked.
Indira shook her head, "Au Yaah," he said. Indira says she wants Dad.
"It's okay, Vi .. let me be the same. It's okay" he replied.
"Sorry troublesome," replied Ervita.
"Not bothered at all," replied Pandu.
Then Pandu slightly lowered Indira from his carrier. "Main yuk ... I love Little Pony, right? Play the same Mbak Lintang," he said.
"Ama Yayah" he said.
Pandu nodded his head there, "Yes, come .. yuk, here. Mbak Lintang, borrow the toys?" pandu.
Until that afternoon approximately half an hour Pandu accompanied Indira and Lintang playing, there were Ervita and Mbak Pertiwi as well. However, maybe because after the picnic and tired Lintang also asked for sleep. So only Ervita, Pandu, and Indi live there.
"Tuh, Madam Latitude bobok ... Indi bobo also yuk. Om Pandu is also tired," said Ervita.
"Bobok amayah" he said.
Ervita shook her head, "His father wants to work first. Indi same Mother yah?" his reply.
After being persuaded, Indira also wanted to. Ervita then carried Indira. When Ervita was about to enter the house, there was a Pandu who called Ervita's name.
"Vi .. later tonight well ... Indi usually sleeps at what time?" ask Pandu.
"Sometimes at 19:00 have gone to bed already Mas .. not the night of his sleep," replied Ervita.
Pandu nodded his head, "Yes already .. later tonight at 19:00, I wait in Pendopo well," he replied.
Ervita nodded her head. It's just, why now his heart is pounding. It feels strange, but precisely this makes Ervita increasingly clumsy and condescending with Mas Pandu.

The night ....
That night in Gudeg City, drizzle as if cooling the atmosphere of the night. Hadinata family who after a picnic and visit the beaches in Gunung Kidul also began to sleep.
While Pandu was waiting in Pendopo, but he chose the side that was in front of the house occupied by Ervita. The reason is of course so that if Indira wakes up and cries, Ervita can hear the cry of her son.
The clock had shown seven past ten minutes, but Ervita did not appear to be out of her house. Pandu also chose to wait, the man was already sitting on the floor in Pendopo. Apparently Pandu was also a patient person, because time had passed and he was still waiting there.
Then Ervita came out at half-eight in the evening. It was seen Ervita circulating her gaze and looking for the figure of Pandu, apparently there was not far in front of her eyes.
"Sorry Mas Pandu ... Indi just slept," he said.
"It's okay, I'm waiting" she replied.
Ervita also sat on the marble floor and took a distance from Pandu. It looks Ervita who already looks awkward, while Pandu is just ordinary, although of course the look of the young man's face looks different now.
"Germist to Vi?"
Honestly, it was an unfortunate question, but for Pandu it was much better than him to feel awkward.
"Yes Mas .. drizzle the speck," Ervita replied with a slight look up her face and saw every speck of rain falling.
"Sweet mistress," Pandu replied with a faint smile there.
I don't know what that smile means, which Ervita certainly did not dare to look at the young man's face. A more domineering sense of awkwardness now. Though usually Ervita feels ordinary, but why since Indira called the young man called Father, make Ervita's heart rippled because of it.
"Hmm, yes ... What is Pandu talking about?" ask Ervita then.
"Oh, that .. want a little chat anyway, Vi .. said he can talk to you," he replied.
"Yes, can ... Ervi could listen to stories from others."
Hearing Ervita's answer, Pandu smiled a little there. "Don't just love hearing other people's stories, Vi .. you're happy too" she said.
Ervita also glanced at Pandu, "Ervi happy kok Mas .. want what kind of happiness again, if Ervi was surrounded by good people here. Families are not made by blood, but by the heart. For all this, Ervi was very happy," Ervita replied.
It was a very honest expression from him, that he found happiness in the Hadinata family. Surrounded by good and sincere people. Those who do not judge him for the mistakes and dishonors he brings, but Ervita is considered like family there. For Ervita it was happiness for her.
