Possibly Back?
Chapter 5 Celoteh Haikal
The sound of takbir echoed in the silence of the nuances of Subuh, reassuring the hearts of every person who was busy struggling with sodets and pans in their kitchens. Such is the picture of mothers before the morning on Eid Al-Fitr Day.
"Sister, Ade, wake up dear.., this morning we go to the mosque to pray Ied," called Rena while trying to wake her two children who are still sound asleep.
Hana slowly opened her eyes.
"What time is this, Mah?" ask Hana
"Hour 5 baby. Come on, wake up first!" sahut Rena's.
Hannah followed her mother's words. He got out of bed and went to the bathroom. After Hana was done, Haikal who had been awake earlier immediately rushed to the bathroom.
"Ih, you, Kal, not careful" said Hana sewot because Haikal hit him when he was about to get out of the bathroom.
"Abisnya Kak Hana lama in the bathroom, Ikal also want to take a bath" said Haikal.
"But no need to hit Brother also time," said Hana sewot.
"Sister, already! Ade you accidentally," said Rena.
"Tau tuh Kaka, "Haikal.
"What?! You were intentional, right?" hana asked while glaring towards her sister.
"Sister, Ade, already! Can't keep fighting. Moreover, this is lebaran, time to forgive each other," said Rena trying to divorce the quarrel of her two children.
"Yes, Mah" said Hana and Haikal almost simultaneously.
"Haikal, honey, take a shower! After that we have breakfast, then prepare to the mosque for prayer ied," said Rena.
Haikal rushed to take a shower following orders
the Mama.

Everyone was getting ready to go to the mosque. Haikal and Hana are already performing at their best. They wear clothes that they choose themselves from in their own closet.
As usual Haikal always showed off his cheerful face and active manner. Not to forget, he held Rena's hand so tightly. She was afraid that her mother would be lost and away from her. Until the entire journey to the mosque his hands were never the slightest he let go.
Indeed, since Rayhan separated Rena and Haikal for almost a month and locked Haikal in the mansion. Haikal looks increasingly spoiled and does not want to be far from Rena. Everywhere he wanted to always go with Rena. Not one bit, he wanted to be left by his mother. Luckily, Rena is not working so she can follow her youngest son's wish to go wherever he goes.
Haikal, the boy that Mama loves the most. Now you are everywhere always wanting to come with me, holding my hand so tightly. Will it be when your mother is old, you will always be like this. Being near Mama, accompanying Mama in her old days, holding the old Mama's hand tightly so as not to fall. (Rena's words in her heart immediately tears fell on her eyes).
"No, honey, Mom doesn't cry. Mama was only moved to see the children Mama is now big and has been able to perform fasting well," said Rena while wiping tears that had almost fallen from both eyes.
How not, thinking of old age, for a widow like herself is quite a terrible thing. Moreover, the wound made by Rayhan still feels so painful that it leaves the trauma for Rena to re-binding a sacred promise with a man.
There is a feeling of reluctance and fear to get married again. Although, some of his friends, even Mr. Rama, the headmaster at the place where Rena taught first, had wanted to match him with their acquaintances. Moreover, Rena is not an ugly woman. It has its own aura of beauty that can captivate the adam who is close to it.

The atmosphere of Nuansa Mall which is the grandest mall in XX City looks so crowded with visitors on this holiday. The mall is one of the many places visited by visitors who do not have a hometown. In the mall, various facilities are provided. Starting from a supermarket that is quite large and complete in which there are various kinds of household needs, such as kitchen utensils, toiletries, clothing, household furniture, etc, electronic goods and of course all kinds of food and drinks are also available there like a super market in general.
Not to mention, cinema facilities, fitness centers, and, and a fairly spacious and complete children's play area in the mall that makes anyone including Rena and her children choose to visit the place as a place to spend their free time.
Rena seemed busy pushing the trolley, moving some items that had been neatly lined up on the supermarket shelf into her trolley. Then, he returned the trolley to every corner in the supermarket.
When arriving at a place around him lined up several brands of television.From small to large, from LCD to LED ones, his little Haikal again chattered.
"Ma, Haikal wants to buy tv, okay? I haven't watched tv for a long time because there is no TV at Mom's house. In fact, in our house that we used to have three tvs," said Haikal who made Rena's heart more sad and angry at Rayhan.
How not, his children had once asked one of the three tvs in his home first to be taken to his current home. But Rayhan, without feeling rejected it.
I don't know, the more he came here since the divorce happened, Rena is getting no idea about Rayhan or indeed from a long time ago she never knew her ex-husband and only now his true nature is revealed. Rayhan ? looking selfish, he did not even think about the feelings and fate of his children anymore. In fact, the Rayhan he knew was a father figure who loved his children very much.
"Ma, how? Buy yes?" pinta Haikal again, awakening Rena from her daydream.
"Indeed buy tv, want to watch what the hell?" asked Rena kindly while sitting near her son in order to clearly see the face of the youngest son.
"Ikal want to watch the favorite movie Ikal, Mah, Legend Hero," said Haikal mentioning the name of one of his son's favorite television series while demonstrating the style of the hero when fighting his enemies.
'Legend Hero' is one of Haikal's favorite series that tells the story of super hero fighters who fight to get a hero piece that will be used to realize the dream of the winner of the fight. Although, airing at night, Haikal really likes the series. Not infrequently Rena had to accompany Haikal staying up late to watch his youngest son's favorite series.
"Haikal's Legend Hero is still there?Is the story not finished yet? Hasn't it been a long time, kid, it's been months, it's been March, April, May, it's been fasting, it's even been lebaran?" ask Rena
"Oh, yes, yes, Mah, it's been eloquent, it means Legend Hero and his enemies have forgiven each other already no longer fighting, no longer fighting anymore, so the story must have been finished, so the story must have been finished, it's over, isn't it, Mah?" sahut Haikal plain
That innocent Haikal speech only made Rena smile miris. Because the reality is not everyone has such simple thoughts, meaning this Eid by forgiving each other and stopping all hostilities that occur between them. In fact, even Rena herself until now has not been able to stretch her chest to forgive all Rayhan's mistakes.
