Naura Abiyasya
The Nau 81
" Yes mother, very good." she replied.
Tirta and Desi also laughed at Ara's words, because now Ara was like a child who just got a good meal. Mother immediately looked at the two for laughing, in an instant they were silent. The sharp eyes of the mother made both of them frightened.
Ara and Tata also spent the food on the dining table, after which they immediately went to sleep. Because you have ordered them, especially tomorrow they both have to go to school.
After the two left, Mother Puk invited Tirta and also Desi to speak in the workspace Tirta. Because the mother is afraid to be heard by Ara or Tata.
" Tirta, Desi, Mother did not expect that Ara arrived like that. Mommy thought he was like an ordinary child at first, but he was so skinny" said the mother.
" Yes that's how you are, even thinner when he first came here mother" said Tirta.
" Sure, she had a very bitter experience, and her stepmother was very cruel" said the mother.
" Mother became curious about her stepmother." added the mother.
" It just so happens that Tirta has a picture of Bun" Tirta said, showing a photo of Naura's stepmother.
" What, she who became stepmother Ara" said Mother did not believe, both just nodded.
" Mother knows him?" desi asked with a scared expression.
" Tirta you know that this mother is not your real mother" said the mother and made Desi shocked.
" Yes mother Tirta knows that, and Tirta does not matter about that. Because you always pay attention to Tirta, and sister Teresa. And mother never compared the three of us." he replied and now Desi added in shock.
" Desi, you know you must be surprised. But that's the truth, baby, but even so mother will not compare who among you. Because for the mother, you are the same" he said, and Desi immediately embraced her mother-in-law.
" Thank you mother" he said, who involuntarily shed tears.
" Mother, then what does stepmother Ara have to do with all this?" ask Tirta who is curious.
" In fact, stepmother Ara is the sister of Mami mu Tirta" said Mother and suddenly Tirta like struck by lightning.
" Mother's point, Ara's stepmother is my aunt." she asked to be sure.
" Yes really dear." said the mother who is now near Tirta and stroked her hair.
" I'm so ashamed of you, the person I've always been looking for. Who is the sister of my only mother, it turns out that the cutlery is the same as my brother." he said who did not believe, then immediately left his study.
Desi who saw her husband's behavior also became confused, she wanted to go out chasing her husband or stay inside. Because her mother-in-law was still there, she slowly looked towards Mother. Mother who realized that, she just nodded. Desi finally went to pursue her husband, and now she found her husband in the garden behind the house.
" Why are you crying?" I asked him who had just arrived at the park.
" It has happened, everything has happened. Now let everything go according to destiny, and for the mas itself. Just follow your heart, don't mind me and Ara. Because mas has a blood relationship with stepmother of Ara, I will not be angry if the mas want to approach him and also improve the relationship with him" Desi explained and make Tirta become increasingly divorced.
" Thank you, my dear Desi, I will try" he said with a smile.
" Now this is the new Tirta mas that I know, now I don't have to think about it anymore. And now we go into the yuk!" take her and they go straight to her room.

" Mother knows this hurts you Tirta, but Mother cannot hide it. Sooner or later, you need to know who you're meeting. Because you have to meet her, according to the message of your mother first." Inner Mother who now sees the view of the back garden from the workspace Tirta.
The day is getting late, and Mother is getting washed away in daydreams. Mother remembered the message from Tirta's mother, to always take care of Tirta and Teresa. He would not distinguish his two children from his, nor should he unite Tirta and Teresa with his family.
" I've kept my promise, but I'm not sure Tirta will accept it. Especially after the incident that happened, the incident that had scratched his heart. Because the incident has scratched the heart of his wife, and also his sister-in-law." Inner Mother while remembering the face of Mami the moon.
Father who did not find the mother finally came to the workspace Tirta, and father found the mother was standing staring outwards. Dad kept calling her mom, but didn't get a response. Dad finally approached Mother.
" Mother, since then I called why not answer" said the father by hugging the mother from behind.
" Oh dad, mom, I'm sorry" he said.
" What is your mother thinking?" ask dad.
" Mother suddenly remembered the same month" he said.
" Have you been, what makes you want the same Mami Tirta?" ask dad.
" So we talked about stepmother Ara, and it turns out she is the sister of the moon." replied Mother and made Dad shocked.
" No way, his sister that month was kind and meek. But her stepmother was a bad and cruel person." explained the unbelieving father.
" Mother was also startled by father at first, but that was the reality. And now Tirta is in a dilemma, he does not know who to side with. On one side was his aunt whom he missed so much, and on one side was his beloved sister-in-law." obviously mom and dad just nodded.
" Don't let Tirta, Dad also felt worried and did not believe Mother" replied the father by running his head.
" Father, let's tell Teresa or not. Because he really misses his tant, yes even though he has to meet in the current situation." asked the mother asking for father's approval.
" For now it is better not to tell Mother, we let Tirta calm down first. After Tirta had calmed down, only then did we tell Teresa." clearly Father and Mother just nodded.
" What you say is true, maybe it's better" said Mother while thinking about the words of the father.
" Have Mother not thought, mending now we return to our room. We've had enough here, this is the room where Tirta calmed down. Let Tirta wear it to calm down, because if she calms down outside Desi will definitely be anxious." explained Dad while taking Mommy to their room.
