...Mom's past story...


That Sunday morning, before sunrise. The atmosphere is still quiet, the sound of crickets is still heard everywhere. Seen one by one come rolling the farmers want to walk towards the green and still dewy rice fields prepare to work plowing the fields that are still muddy.


That morning before leaving for a long trip. Supri went to the front yard to heat up his car.


While Mom helps Maya prepare their supplies, and Tasia helps tidy up Maya's clothes into her suitcase.


After finishing, Tasia then looked at her brother who was still sitting busy dressing up in front of her mirror.


Maya who knows it immediately finishes it and tidy up her make-up kit.


"You why? I can't have my sister go, can I?!" tanyanya who from earlier saw the look on the moody face of her sister in the mirror.


Tasia shook her head.


"Who is sad?! What is Maya's sister?!" lying Tasia.


"Tasia was happy that Tasia could now be free from this chatty big brother of mine!" he said again as he spread his forced lips.


"Don't lie. It's obvious you were alone last night outside...!" Maya, when she caught Tasia last night.


No tears fell on Tasia's cheeks.


"Sir Maya...Don't go far, sister?!" suddenly hugged her brother in the back. "Honestly, Tasia will be sad to be left by her sister!" he said sobbing to hold back the crying.


Heard the sad expression from his sister's mouth. Maya could only be filled with silence as if it was difficult to get words out.


"You're like being left far away abroad. This brother is in Bogor of course still on the island of Java!" he said soothing, which still did not have the heart to leave his sister and mother.


"But Tasia later no friends vent again?" continues sad.


"This is already the era of advanced Tasia.later you can video call brother if for example want to vent" he explained.


"So, that guy feels so different! we were always one room together. But later only through the video, it feels like it is not real!" sad again.


"How do you want it? brother should stay here? What about Mas Supri if he continues? Sister is now a status of wife, different from when she was single, so wherever husband goes, yes sister also has to go!" lang Maya's.


"Listen to sister's message, you take care of me do not make mother soybean. Later brother will transfer money to you once a month, for the needs of the mother also to pay the rent a maid." the message, "And another one, sister saranin, to the mother's needs, also to pay for the maid's rent, mending you quickly come to work at the cafe Rizal" he added again suggested.


"But brother!" sela Tasia who is still hesitant with the advice of her brother, has not finished Tasia said her brother has interrupted her again.


"Believe my brother, Rizal is a good and honest man, he is diligent and hardworking. Brother feels sure you and Rizal must be a good fit later!" she said Maya again while stroking her sister's face with tenderness. "In addition, we will also earn from your own work without having to tire of trading alone." he continued.


Tasia nodded obediently hearing all the words of her brother with her eyes still glazed, then hugged her dear brother tightly.

His mother felt the same way, and for a long time they embraced.


Then Supri kissed the back of her in-laws' hands with love and respect, and they said goodbye and boarded her car. As well as in the car run, Maya also waved her hand at the car window towards them, Tasia and her mother also returned a wave of her hand.


After they left. Tasia's mother went straight into the house, towards her kitchen and was about to resume her work. Tasia followed her mother from behind.


Seeing Mom about to clean up their old dirty dishes breakfast hastily Tasia prevented that.


"Mom, what do you want? let Tasia be the holy one!" saith. "Mending mom rest, sister Maya pesen same Tasia earlier, mother today and so on do not have to do heavy work anymore" continued Tasia reminded her mother.


His mother smiled when she heard his daughter's words. Just this time she heard sweet words from Tasia's mouth.


Thanks to Maya and her prayers it finally slowly Tasia grew into a tender and mature girl.


"Yes already then." said his mother. "Mother is very happy that Tasia you are willing to change, so you will also quickly meet your future husband and get married like Maya" he said happily.


"What did mom say? Tasia didn't want to think about it yet.it's still very far for Tasia!" he said while turning on the water in the sink to wash dishes and dirty glasses.


"But soon you'll be 21 years old. If the village people like us, it is natural to get married at a young age like you" said his mother. Tasia simply shook her head while smiling at her mother's words.


"Mom..Ma'am, Maya got married yesterday at the age of 24!" chirping.


"Lho Tas, don't get me wrong you used to marry your father at the age of 16" explained his mother.


Tasia was shocked to not believe hearing her mother's phrase "Don't Mom?" when finished with the laundry.


Mother nodded slowly.


"Yes, my mother was not in school anymore.. While your father has worked and holds a bachelor's degree 1.


Your mother and father were married in 1985. your mother's age was 16 while your father was 23. we were only 7 years apart." he said.


"Mom can Tasia ask?" sahut Tasia stopped following her mother's story.


"Aren't you sad about your divorce?" ask him suddenly. "And actually why would you prefer to live with that woman instead of our mother?!" ask again enthusiastically.


Mother looked at Tasia carefully, sadness was evident from the appearance of her slightly wrinkled face.
