"Papa came home, yes, kasian Mama at home, later if you have finished his salary, directly follow Ustadz Agam to the Mosque!"
"Ready, Papa." Ahkam kissed Zidan's cheek before entering the room.
Today the housekeeper who used to accompany Manda was unwell, so Zidan could not leave his own wife at home either. He will not calm down, and his mind will surely continue to be on Manda. Zidan is afraid of Manda why-why!
"Ahkam, how are you?" tanya Ustadz Agam before listening to Ahkam, this is the first time Ahkam came after his return from Singapore.
"Alhamdulillah, fine, Ustadz!"
"Alhamdulillah if so, Ahkam at which sight now?!" Ustadz Agam checked the recapitulation book of Ahkam. "Page 35, yes, isti'adzah basmalah!"
Ahkam retreated after being listened to and got an L grade, which meant smoothly, the boy was standing near the room divider, looking for Cila.
"Cila, cilaaa, Cila.." call Ahkam to the little girl who is folding the prayer mat. The little girl smiled as she turned towards Ahkam, she left the prayer mat she had just folded.
"Have you gone home yet?"
"Yes." Yeah." Ahkam stared at Cila for quite a while.
"Cila, if Cila is already big, like Mama Manda, Cila would not marry Ahkam?" ahkam said slowly.
Cila frowned. I don't understand what Ahkam means.
"Married what is it?"
Ahkam thought. She was also confused, what exactly was marriage like?
"Ahkam married Cila, Cila also married Ahkam. Like Papa Zidan and Mama Mama! Want huh?"
"Yes, Cila wants to marry Ahkam!" Cila smiled, even though she did not understand what the word marriage meant, what she imagined was playing with Ahkam until they grew up!
********
Ahkam took his bag to the living room, Papa Zidan and Mama Manda were sitting there, Zidan was feeding Manda the meatballs he had just bought.
"Well, how come there's lime on the meatball, Pa?" ahkam asked, looking into the bowl that Zidan was holding.
"Papa also don't know, this is what Mama wants, try asking Mama, why eat meatballs should pack lime as well?!" Zidan shook his head, he was also shocked when Manda asked for the meat to be used in lime! There is-there is only a request for pregnant women this one!
"Ahkam want to taste no, delicious loh!" said Manda, Ahkam who bargained, even Zidan who creeps.
"Emmm--"
Hap.
One small meatball plus noodles and the broth went into Ahkam's mouth. The boy looked at Manda, he kept chewing even though it felt so strange, the sauce was like lime juice!
"Enak right?"
Ahkam nodded slowly, then took the glass on the table, gulped the contents down to the toilet.
"Have a son, Pa. Try it now Papa's a taster!"
Manda turned to look at Zidan, since he had offered, but Zidan continued to refuse, citing fear that Manda was not full if Zidan also tasted.
"Want to too?"
"Emmm, here, here, let Brother bribe darling again!" Zidan directly pointed the spoon at Manda. Manda accepted it with a pouting facial expression, as Zidan was still unwilling to taste the meatballs.
"It's good, but why don't you want to be tasting, Ahkam!"
Uh. Zidan shook his head slowly. He rubbed Manda's cheek and smiled.
"Yes, I asked for the meat!"
While closed Zidan waited for the meatball to enter his mouth and ----
"Emmm, yummy, panties you like!"
Though what Zidan said when inversely proportional to what he felt, wanted it to feel like he was spewing this meatball right now. But for Manda's sake, Zidan willingly chewed and swallowed it.
"Well, same brother Ahkam who finished, Mama is full!"
Huh huh? Ahkam and Zidan looked at each other. What an accident is this!
"Dihabisin loh, do not let the slightest waste!"
"Yes, I'll finish up!" Zidan placed the bowl on the table and gave Manda a glass of water.
"So Ahkam met Cila. Then, Ahkam asked, Cila would not marry Ahkam?"
Manda or Zidan was surprised not to play to hear the words of his son. Manda glared at Zidan, didn't he say yesterday Zidan would talk about this with Ahkam?!
"Keep, what does he answer?" ask Zidan. Instead of forbidding, this is more appropriately called giving support!
"When you want to get married, Ahkam, Pa!"
"Astaghfirullah, my son, was a child who dared to make a child for marriage!" Manda pinches gnarled cheek Ahkam. He was really confused to have to behave and respond to this with what kind of expression? Should Manda scold Ahkam who did not even fully understand what he was saying?
"Then tomorrow if it's big Ahkam married her to Cila, is that it?
"Yes, Pa!"
"Yes, Papa helped doain!" Zidan smiled as he stroked Ahkam's head.
"Well, Ahkam now, just as Cila was a child, so study hard first, don't talk about marrying again, huh?!"
"OK, Ahkam also wants to go to school in the pesantren like Papa, want to memorize the Qur'an!"
"Well, that's great! Great daughter Mama!"
"Now, look at his schoolwork, have Ahkam done it all?!" ask Zidan.
"Udah, Pa, take a look at this!"
Ahkam picked up his bag, took out some of the paper assignments that Master Ma'am had given him.
"Duh, Papa's son is diligent and great!" zidan said after checking Ahkam's duties, everything was done well and correctly.
Ahkam smiled and hugged Manda's body. "Temenin Ahkam is broken, Ma? Mama's the head of Ahkam."
"It's here, Bobok here!" Manda patted his thigh. Ahkam put his head there. Zidan even smiled wryly, if it had been this way, surely Manda's attention was only on one Ahkam!
"Pretty spit on the heels of Papa's son!"
*********
Zidan came down the stairs with a big smile, the 31-year-old man was neat with a white shirt and black suit, his hair that had been still disheveled now has been combed neatly, he said, the fragrance of the perfume was clearly smelled to the next planet. A wide smile, as wide as a moringa leaf.
"Good morning, Pa!" greet Ahkam while smiling at Zidan who is now sitting at the dining table.
"Morning, Honey!" Zidan threw a smile back at Ahkam.
"Why why?"
"It's okay, Papa's happy!"
"Eemm, must be because I've been kissed by Mama huh? Dad likes to be kissed by Mama!"
"Susst, don't date her! I'll hear Mama!"
"Oh yes, Pa!" Ahkam shrank the volume of his voice. But it's useless, Manda has been listening to their conversation since.
"The father doesn't like to be kissed by Mama, but is jealous if you kiss Ahkam more!"
Ahkam laughed instead, the boy hugged Manda's waist as Manda put down her glass of ordered milk. "It's got Ahkam huh, Pa!"
"Yes, if morning has Ahkam, but if Malem has Papa!"
Manda just shook his head slowly to hear Zidan and Ahkam fighting over it like a favorite object that does not want to be shared with anyone!
"Student study yes, dear!" said Manda while wearing Ahkam bag. The boy nodded then kissed the back of the hand and kissed Manda's cheek. Since Manda was pregnant, Manda never again accompanied Ahkam, Ahkam also did not want, he said Mama same Adek Little rest a lot and stay at home only.
"His spirit works, baby!" Now it's Papa's turn to be noticed, too. As usual, Zidan pointed at both of his cheeks, asking to be kissed there. Ahkam has been throwing his face since, not wanting to see.
"Thank you for last night!"
"Hust, it's over there, it'll be late!" Manda pushed Zidan's body out of the house immediately, the man smiled as he played his eyebrows.
"Be careful on the road, Bang!"
"Yes, I love you, baby!!"
It was this morning atmosphere that always made Manda feel happy and grateful every time she opened her eyes, As she opened her eyes, Zidan and Ahkam were still by her side, the two people Manda really loves and loves, without the presence of both, Manda does not know how she will live her days without seeing them, without seeing their smiles, without seeing their smiles, without hearing their laughter, without hearing them argue over Manda's affection and concern!
