The Part 18
After three months of waiting, finally SK duty Novia out and a good distance from her home.
Novia thinks about Camillah and how the solution is because currently the age of Camillah is even 4 years it means she is ready to enter the Playground school who will later pick her up home from school.
"Ah later I talk to Irwan maybe he has a solution" he murmured.
Lately Irwan often went home at night because he had to help his mother take care of Mr. Ahmad whose disease always recurred.
As well as tonight, Novia had to wait for her husband to talk about Camillah, after her son fell asleep Novia came out of the room and chose to watch TV alone while waiting for her husband because Pak Wahyu and Ratih's mother had slept.
Before long the roar of the car engine could be heard entering the garage, Novia got up and walked out to greet her husband.
Irwan parked the car and turned off the engine and got out of the car and walked to the house, he saw Novia was waiting on the terrace and he stepped towards his wife.
"Assalamu'alaikum" he said.
"Wa'alaikumussalam" replied Novia and approached her husband.
"Millah where ? tumben deserted "...
"Have gone to sleep, my mother is equally poor" replied Novia.
"You want to eat or take a shower first" Novia asked back.
"You take a hot bath, you have eaten at your home" said Irwan and stepped into the room followed by Novia in the back.
After Irwan finished bathing and changed his clothes, Novia invited her husband to talk for a moment.
"Wan, I want to say something" while patting the bed next to her beckoned her husband to come closer.
Irwan approached and sat right next to Novia.
"What did you say ?" ask Irwan.
"My task is already there, automatically I have to go to work and the place is far away what about Millah who will take care of it" said Novia at length.
"And there's mom and dad Vi" said Irwan.
"Camillah it's time for Wan's school, now he's 4 years old like mom and dad won't be strong to take care of Camillah" Novia replied again.
For a moment Irwan was silent he seemed to be thinking about something and then smiled a little.
"How about we move into the house that was Vi ? near there will be PAUD Camillah can school there, mama would want to send and pick up Camillah" he said hoping Novia agreed.
"Hmm well, tomorrow I will talk first with mama and papa" said Novia.
Because they have found a solution, they finally sleep.
The next day after Irwan left for work, Novia explained about their plans last night to both parents.
Novia was worried that her parents would be offended, but unexpectedly his parents actually responded wisely to all Novia's decisions and he was very grateful to those who always gave support to him and his small family.
Similarly, Irwan, he also talked about his plans and Novia to her parents they agreed.
As planned to eventually move into the house they used to live in, Novia immediately enroll Camillah to school and take care of all her administration.
The first day of school, Novia was not so difficult because fortunately Camillah was a child who was not fussy and adaptable so that everything went smoothly.
After Camillah's affairs are settled, it is Novia's turn to prepare everything related to her duties.
The plan is tomorrow morning Novia will go to her place of duty to make observations because Novia herself also does not know the circumstances and situation of her place of duty.
Early in the morning Novia had woken up, cooked, bathed and prayed at dawn. At 6 am everything is ready including supplies for Camillah to school.
Then she woke up her son and bathed and put on her school uniform, while she also finished her bath and put on her work clothes.
Novia then went to her in-laws' house which was just next to where she lived.
"Assalamualaikum" said Novia then went inside.
And in sahuti bu Mini from inside "waalaikumussalam".
"Well, I want to leave Camillah well, he is ready and the supplies are also in his bag" he said.
"That's mah, again the same papa, today I ask for help first Irwan drove me there" said Novia.
They then walked towards Irwan and Camillah.
Novia approached her son "meang.today Millah grandmother yes, mama want to work first" she told Camillah.
And answered the spoiled nod of Camillah.
Novia kissed her son's forehead and said goodbye to her mother-in-law.
"Well, let's go first, baby, don't fuss, you're a diligent school, you know, you know, assalamualaikum." Novia gets into the car and Irwan starts the engine and slowly moves away.
During the trip Novia's heart like will be released, it turns out that the terrain is quite stressful to be able to get to his place of duty.
"O Allah is the abyss, be careful Wan.
Irwan just kept quiet and chose to focus on the steering wheel.
While Novia was incessantly reciting all sorts of prayers because this was the first time for her to go down a path like this.
They finally reached their destination.
Novia was silent for a moment to calm down, it felt like heart gymnastics for her felt calm Novia was getting off the car.
Before stepping, Novia's gaze swept in all directions and slowly walked into a building made of planks.
Novia was amazed, why it was quiet and where her students went.
"Excuse me, can anyone help ma'am ?" a middle-aged man approached Novia.
Novia was aghast then turned towards the voice.
"Oh sorry sir I'm looking for the principal and want to meet" replied Novia.
"Head of school today is having a meeting so can't come, mother what need ? ask again.
"I Novia Andini would like to confirm that I am assigned here" Novia replied.
"Oh, you can come back here tomorrow" he replied.
Novia then asked "sorry whose father ?".
"I am a citizen here and also tasked with cleaning the school environment" he replied again.
Novia grew curious and kept asking..
"Sir, where are his students and other teachers ?"
"The disciples here are just how many people, they come here if the teacher picks up".
"Then where is the teacher" asked Novia.
"They took turns coming ma'am" he said.
Novia now understands, meaning they do not routinely come every day just taking turns, yes maybe because of the condition of the students so that the teacher chose to take turns coming, he thought, and this made him a little relieved because he could still take care of Camillah.
After a long conversation, Novia said goodbye and sent a message maybe two or three more days she would come and meet the principal.
Novia turned around and walked towards the car...
"Let's go home" he said
"Have met the headmaster" asked Irwan.
"Not yet, today he could not come, and the teacher here also took turns coming" he replied.
Irwan only gawked in confusion..🙄
"The disciples must be picked up to the new house to come to hehe school" replied Novia while chuckling amusedly.
"Oh, funny as well" replied Irwan..
It's a new experience for Novia, as well as a guts-testing challenge.
