Quarter Century Duda

Quarter Century Duda
Life Is a Lot of Surprises


Returning from the Orphanage, Tendean was about to question his wife. As far as Tendean used to be Dianti was a scholar psychologist. So, why can be a book author and close to children. It was a surprise for Tendean.


"Mother, why don't you just intend to be a psychologist? As far as I was concerned, you were always the student with the best GPA. I thought you were going to be a psychologist" Tendean said.


Mother Dianti then smiled. "I like kids, Mom. Even I took Child Development Psychology because I wanted to accompany children. So fond of the world of children, I thought about what my contribution to children was. Yes, I wrote a book, made a fairy tale that is not just a fairy tale, but there is a learning and planting of characters there. Then, the orphanage I was working with my partner. Now, my partner opened the Orphanage of Mother Love also in Makassar. Doing everything that becomes our passion is fun, Mas," story Mother Dianti.


Apparently the main reason why Mother Dianti chose to plunge into the world of children because she likes children. Do everything with passion. The expected result is very satisfying.


"Oh, so. Is it because you like children that keep you from getting married?" ask Tendean's father again.


"not too. Actually when Father and Mother were still there, he betrothed me with some of his partner's sons. However, I feel no reg. Besides, yes maybe I'm the stupid and naive one, still holding the promise of the young man who used to ask me to wait" Mother Dianti told me.


When it comes to the promise that Tendean's father once said. It made Tendean's Dad's chest tight. Didn't think he'd kept Dianti waiting for a quarter of a century.


Di, I'm going to continue my graduate studies in Jakarta. Wait for me in Bandung. Once, I'm done, I'll go back to Bandung and ask you.


That's the message Tendean's father once said. Ask Dianti to wait. Not expecting when he used to deny, instead Dianti stood in his place and waited for him.


"I'm sorry, Di .. I also didn't expect that when I denied, you were still waiting for me. I'm sorry," said Tendean's father.


"It's okay, Mom. Turn it on is full of surprises, so many flavors and many colors. It's okay," Mother Dianti replied with a smile.


"No, I'm married now. Status in KTP is also Not Married, not Widow. You are not careful," replied Mother Dianti.


Tendean's father nodded his head. Yes indeed he did not check the resident Identification card belonging to Mother Dianti when registering a marriage. Too focused on preparing the event and preparing all, to not read the state documents owned by his future wife at that time.


"Ah, right. Why don't I think about it. I'm the one who's not meticulous," Tendean's father replied with a smile.


"Already, Mas. Sleeping yuk. Already aging, the waist is a bit shrunk due to lack of lying down. My activities now often fall at home. So, most of the standing in the Panti made pegel waist," said Mother Dianti.


Now Tendean's father stood up and took a glass of water for his wife. "Drink first, then we will sleep. Try to drink water regularly. Lumbago can also be due to lack of drinking water."


"If you have a good doctor husband well, our health is considered," replied Mother Dianti.


"The husband should pay attention to his wife. Drink it slowly. Just got to sleep. I don't think you're so tired today" said Tendean's father.


"Hmm, why is it?" ask Mother Dianti.


Tendean's father smiled. "Regular, In. Someone needs it now" he replied.


Apparently the middle-aged couple could also. Not only have activities that are increasingly diverse in old age, but also have special activities to always foster love.
