CHAPTER 52

🌹HAPPY READING🌹

Sela walked up to Zahra. "This is a picture of a woman?" tanya Sela saw a picture frame in her mother's arms.

Slowly, Sela took the photo.

Successfully, the boy managed to take his picture frame. Sela turned the frame. "Dad" muttered Sela when she saw the face of a man she had been calling Dad since yesterday.

Sela looks at Zahra and Kenzo's photo in turn. "What is the hand of God that Buna said?" zahra looked at the sky. It was as if the boy was asking and talking to his Creator.

"Is Dad Cela's real father?" continued Sela lirih. The boy looked at the face of Zahra who was still sound in her sleep. He could see his mother's slightly swollen eyes.

"Is Buna crying?" the monologue of Sela on her own.

"What happened? Why does Buna cry when it comes to Dad? If Buna hates Dad, why doesn't Buna hug Dad's picture?" ask Sela again who.

The boy slowly returned the picture frame to Zahra. He walked out slowly without nodding Zahra's sleep.

"Definitely not possible to buy it on Buna, Grandma is also impossible. Delicate cali tau cendili," muttered Sela after arriving at the door of Zahra's room.

"Sela," call Bu Sari who came to Sela.

"Huust, Buna is deaf, Nek," said Sela whispering with her index finger in front of her mouth. The boy gave the code Bu Sari so as not to sound loudly.

Ms. Sari smiled anxiously with Sela. After that he invited Sela to pray together without waking Zahra. Ms. Sari was sure, soon Zahra would wake up.

.....

"Buna makih tidul, Nek," said Sela after returning from Zahra's room.

Ms. Sari looked at the wall clock. Time had shown six o'clock past thirty minutes, and Zahra was still faithful in her sleep. Did Zahra think about what I said all night to fall asleep like this? He doesn't usually sleep until noon like this. If it is, may you make a good decision for both of you, Zahra. Inner Ma Sari wondered.

"Then, for today let Grandma inter-Sela, yes," said Bu Sari.

Sela nodded. The two of them left the house and immediately left for Sela's school.

While in his room, Zahra began to open his eyes when the sunlight was already very bright about his sense of sight.

"Astagfirullahalazim, it's already seven and a half" Zahra said in shock as she looked at the wall clock in her room.

Immediately Zahra got out of the room and went to the bathroom to purify herself. Zahra immediately carried out her duties as a Muslim

After the dawn prayer, Zahra exited the room. "Sela, Mother," said Zahra, shouting a little for Ms. Sari and Sela.

"Surely they are gone," Sela muttered after not hearing any reply from Sela and Bu Sari.

Zahra went to the kitchen to see all her donuts. "It was brought by Mom as well," said Zahra after seeing five boxes of doughnuts she had prepared last night was not there where she put them last night.

"I have to get ready for work" said Zahra and immediately prepared herself to go to work at the cake shop.

.....

Zahra and Bu Sari arrive in front of Sela's school. "So sure you don't want Grandma to take you to class?" ask Bu Sari for the umpteenth time.

For the umpteenth time as well, Sela shook her head. "Sela won't be alone, Grandma. There will be Anna" said Sela lifting Anna's doll.

Ms. Sari sighed softly and smiled. "Yes, then Grandma said to Panti, yes," said Ms. Sari.

Sela nodded. "Grandmother be careful, yes," said Sela took the hand of Bu Sari. "Assalamu'alaikum, Grandma" said Sela, kissing the back of Bu Sari's hand.

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Ms. Sari.

"God will show the way and answer the whim," muttered Sela cheering herself on. The boy continued his steps. However, Sela's footsteps came to a halt when a shrill voice called out her name loudly.

"Selsel."

Sela turned around and saw Shasa who was waving to her. A smile rises on the lips of the boy, it turns out that the one who calls is his own best friend. Sela walked over to Shasa who was accompanied by Dee and Kina.

"Acalamu'alaikum, Caca, um ...,"

"Call Grandma, son," Dee said when she saw Sela's confusion. This is indeed the first time Dee and Kina met with Sela.

"Acalamu'alaikum, Grandma, Aunt," Sela repeated to Dee and Kina.

"Waalaikumsalam," Dee and Kina replied simultaneously accompanied by their sincere smiles.

"Grandmother, Mama, Sela is my best friend" Shasa said, introducing Sela to Dee and Kina.

"Well, really? You're so pretty, son," said Dee, rubbing Sela's cheek gently.

"Telimaki, Grandma," Sela replied with a sweet smile.

Dee's gaze locked when she saw Sela's smile. This smile reminds me of my son. Dee's inner self was so glued to see Sela's smile.

"Sir, Ma, then Shasa goes to class with Sela alone. Grandma and Mama can go home" Shasa said with a sweet smile.

"You can't be mean in class, baby. Must study diligently, and with the teacher explaining," said Kina advising Shasa who is very, very talkative.

Shasa smiled sinlessly and nodded. "We go first, yeah. Assalamu'alaikum" said Shasa pamit. They shook Dee and Kina's hands in turn, after which they left with their hands together towards class.

"Umi," call Kina after the two of them are now living.

"Yes, son," Dee replied.

"Where are we waiting for my sister?" ask Kina. Because according to their plan, this morning they'll be waiting for Zahra at school. Dee's sure Zahra will be back here.

"We were waiting at the place yesterday to meet your brother, son," Dee replied.

Kina nodded. They walked towards the passageway where Zahra and Kina met yesterday.

While in class, Shasa and Sela were already sitting on their respective benches.

"Caca," called Sela to Shasa who was sitting next to her.

"Yes" replied Shasa.

"Can I go to your house?" ask Sela. The boy was thinking of finding out about his mother. He believes Kenzo must have stayed at home with Shasa because Kenzo is Papi Shasa. That way, he could search for all the answers that were currently in his heart and mind.

Shasa's eyes twinkled round hearing Sela's words. "Byeah, Sela," said Shasa cheerfully with a confident nod. With the arrival of Sela, it means she has a playmate later.

Sela smiled happily. "Look at Caca," replied Sela happily.

Hope Cela finds the answer. Inner Sela with full hope. So much hope that he wants to get it done soon.

The boy marks Shasa back busy with his pencil and drawing book from the side. If true Dad is the real father of Cela, Caca's proboscis is Cela's caudala. We're not just friends, we're caudala. Inner Sela pleased.
