Still In The Same Sky
Become Lecturer

Although Utari no longer has a fat body like when he just graduated from college, Utari still mengutinkan morning exercise. Moreover, the healthy lifestyle applied by both Mother and Father Lecturer at home which is now in his residence makes Utari easier to maintain his weight.

This morning Utari was running in the morning before she was active, 7 weeks in South Korea made Utari do the list for every day that she did.

As Utari is currently doing, after doing the morning run Utari will go to the library. Later after learning Utari will go to teach in some houses where he teaches and after that Utari teaches at the tutoring place and Utari comes home before sunset.

Time quickly passed, today Utari has arrived home. It was late in the afternoon, Utari was cooking food for dinner because soon Hana and her husband would be home.

"Tante, cook what? Is there cake?" ask little Hyejin to Utari.

"Dear, Auntie was cooking chocolate brownies. A moment Aunty took from the refrigerator first," said Utari sgera took a cake that is still intact has not been cut at all.

"Tante, said our mother to move to Singapore next month? Means I can't eat Auntie's delicious food like this?" hyejin asked with a sad look.

"Honey, when the holiday of the aunt will visit Hyejin or vice versa. Eomma and Appa Hyejin will definitely return to Korea once the holidays arrive, so it doesn't matter we will definitely meet again" Utari said, wiping Hyejin's head.

"Yes but long Ajummha, while there surely Eomma will be more busy working and I will often be left in daycare or not in tutoring as before Ajummha was here," hyejin said with a sad face.

"Honey, listen to me! Your mom and dad work for you? So Hyejin can't be sad, because Hyejin's mom and dad worked hard to make Hyejin happy. Now Hyejin may not understand but when Hyejin grows up Hyejin will understand why Hyejin's mother and father are busy working" said Utari who was a little confused how to explain.

Hyejin just nodded her head as the brownies made by Utari.

While Utari was sitting alone with Hyejin in front of the television room there was an incoming message from Kim Hana.

Hannah

My husband and I are not going home tonight. After work we went to my hometown to see my mother and father and my two in-laws. We'll be home tomorrow afternoon, I'll have Hyejin with you.

The message from Kim Hana immediately got a smile of sumringah from Utari.

Utari

Don't worry, Hyejin, she's safe with me. Enjoy the time Brother and husband with both parents Brother and in-law Brother.

After saying that Utari warmed up the dishes that had been cooked in this afternoon.

"Hyejin ah, let's have dinner. Your mother and father will spend the night at Grandpa and Grandma's place, maybe you will come home tomorrow" Utari said.

"Alright Auntie," said Hyejin who immediately approached Utari who was at the dining table with the absence of all the cuisine has been warmed and can be directly eaten.

Hyejin ate voraciously the dishes cooked by Utari. After dinner, Hyejin does schoolwork with Utari's help. Until 10 p.m., Hyejin fell asleep. Utari sighed and smiled, enveloped Hyejin and placed Hyejin's fabled book on the bookshelf.

Utari went back to her room, upon arrival in her room, sat on her bed and opened a photo gallery where there was a photo of the smiling Mother sitting on a swing.

"Mom, Utari kangen. Pray for Utari to be accepted to work immediately and immediately continue S2 here, so that Utari can pick up Mother from there to stay with Utari.

2 Months later

Yes everything is not as smooth as expected, Utari graduated as a Lecturer there but was accepted at University XY as a Student. Yes, on the advice of Kim Hana, Utari took 3 scholarship tests from different universities. Busy is for sure, but Utari does not want to be discouraged and complains too much. Utari wanted to live it quietly.

It's been a week since Utari didn't call her mother. Somehow the news of his mother there, usually Utari who called earlier just a week later Utari was quite confused in carrying out work and lectures. Moreover, Utari there replaced Hana as a permanent Lecturer and has many classes that are carried once gus.

To Mother

The phone came in from her number, Utari was sitting at her study desk with an open laptop complete with a glass of warm tea. Utari immediately answered the video call made by the mother.

"Assalamu'alaikum!" said Mom across there.

"Walaikumussalam Ibu, how are you?" ask Utari to her mother.

"Alhamdulillah, Son. Mom is in good and healthy condition. How's work going?" ask Mom back.

"Alhamdulillah smoothly Mother, I'm not selling anymore right?" ask Utari.

"Mother is still selling, son, Ibu Pegel-pegel's body if there is no activity! Especially if at home aja weight can be more up, later Mother difficult to walk," said Mother to Utari.

Utari just smiled hearing the words of the mother.

"Now what's Mother?" ask Utari to her mother.

"This Mom just came home from the Islamic prayer, just now at 8 pm Nak," said Mother to Utari.

"Oh yes the time is only different for 2 hours. Oh yes Ma'am, Utari wants to collect the promise to Mother," said Utari looking seriously at the Mother.

"What promise does Mother Unfortunately make?" ask Utari.

"The interest has been working here for 2 weeks as a Lecturer. Utari is also now doing S2 here, in accordance with the promise Utari wants to invite Mother to live with Utari here. Regarding letters and passports, everything that deals with correspondence was actually completed before Utari came here. So I just leave again" Utari said with a smile.

"But son, I don't want to. But you also just work and live at Kim Hana's house, I'm afraid later you even have to owe here and there just to bring Mom there?" mother said in a soft voice.

"Mother, about the house we're going to live in. Utari had bought her friend Kak Hana's house because she needed money fast, so Utari used borrowed money as a worker here and it was our private house. It is not big only has 3 rooms, so it is quite possible for us to take shelter. Regarding the cost of the mother do not worry, Utari got a round trip fee Indonesia-Korea from campus for file management as a freshly entered graduate student," Utari said.

"Mom's happy to hear it, son, well I'll talk to Maknin. Regarding our belongings in this X city, when will you leave, son?" ask Utari.

"How about two more weeks?" ask Utari to her mother.

"Alright in 2 weeks, at least I can breathe first to send our belongings to the hometown," Ibu told Utari.
