Teach Me (Naina)
Chapter 73

"God! Stop right there!" naina shouted when she saw a truck traveling at high speed.

The little girl kept running no matter what was going to happen in front of her. Naina panics, the plastic food she carries she throws and runs to rescue Halwa.

TIIN!

The sound of the truck horn echoing in tandem with the sound of the brake being forcefully stepped on, made Naina even more panic-stricken.

"God! Don't run!"

"Mother!"

The little girl smiled as Naina came running towards her. However, the truck that could not stop suddenly, continued to split the two. The big thing stopped between Naina and Halwa.

"CHUCKLES!" Naina screamed, her tears spilled, she couldn't stand it.

"CHUCKLES!" All the children in the mosque were screaming as the bus ran over ....

"Are you okay?"

Halwa shook her head, but she immediately turned her head towards Naina. The large body of the truck was very obstructing, he intended to approach his mother.

"Where are you going?" get someone to help him.

"Mothers. Mother was there, Halwa wanted to go to mother," she replied softly.

"Mother?" The male forehead that was none other than Bas frowned at hearing Halwa mention the word mother.

"Yes, Mommy. Halwa wants to go to Mom," she said impatiently.

"God!"

"God!"

Naina arrives behind the body of the truck along with the children at the mosque.

"Mother!" The little girl ran over and hugged Naina.

Throw Naina's body, all her muscles feel weak. He cried while clutching tightly to Halwa's body. Her heart was pounding and making a tightness, making Naina's cry sound hysterical and poignant.

To all the children of Alfin, staring at the meeting. They hugged each other, wanted to hug and hugged Naina. Bas smiled, relieved that little girl Alfin could be saved in time. If not, what would he say to his father?

"Mother!" call all the children full of longing.

Naina was still crying, unable to endure the hysterics in her heart. He lifted his face with tears. It was getting crowded to see all those kids. His tongue is mute, it can only stretch out both hands as a gesture for them to approach and embrace him.

"Mother!"

The cry of unstoppable novelty, there were many eyes watching the incident. Really, they got swept up in the meeting.

Bas thought, staring fixedly at Naina's face.

Is she the girl Alfin meant? I forgot to ask her name.

He muttered inwardly, biting his own lips. Think deeply about the girl they call mom.

"Mother, don't cry like gini. Halwa is okay," said one of the children while wiping Naina's tears, but the girl's cries did not stop. Precisely becoming more and more to make his body weak and slow.

"Astaghfirullah al-adhiim!" Ustad Hasan who happened to be there, rubbed his chest looking at the hysterical Naina. Aided by the police, they left the roadside and sat on the terrace of the mosque.

Adrian's wife, feeling anxious, immediately went into the store to tell her husband.

"Well, Naina ...."

"Why?" Adrian got up, and without wondering immediately got out of the store.

"What's going on?" ask the wife.

"So there was a little boy who wanted to cross while calling Mom. Naina wants to help him, but it seems like it's okay." The two stared at the crowd at the mosque, nothing happened and Naina looked fine.

"Who are those kids?" ask Adrian.

"You don't know, Naina said she wanted to see them" replied the wife.

On the terrace, Naina was surrounded by all the children. On her lap, Halwa sat while resting her head on Naina's shoulders. They smiled, happy twinkles popping up in all those little beads.

Except for Bas, staring fixedly at Naina's face confirmed her guess. Feeling all was well, Adrian and his wife returned to the store giving Naina time to gather with the children.

"Mothers. Where's mom going? Halwa misses Mom," the little girl asked, burying her face in Naina's chest.

"Not only Halwa, we miss Mother, too" said the others greeted the cheers of all children.

Naina smiled, rubbing the faces of some longing children. He misses her just as much as those kids.

"Mom misses you too. How's it? You're all right, aren't you? Sorry Mom, yes, because some days you do not nengokin" said Naina. Her lips were smiling, but both eyes were watering.

"It's okay, ma'am, but it's not just us who miss, Dad too. He said he went to look for Mom until now he has not come home" said one of the children, sighing quite heavily.

Naina raised her face, her smile receding from her lips. For two days he waited in the hospital, but the man never came again after promising not to leave.

"Where did you go?" ask Naina curious.

"We don't know, Mom. Dad said he wanted to take us to see Mom at the hospital, but not coming home until now," they complained, all of the faces looked sad.

Naina doesn't understand where Alfin is going. It was possible that he wanted to stay away from her because of the prejudice embedded in the young man's heart.

If you don't want to see me again, at least don't stay with your children, Alfin. They are not wrong, you make them victims of your feelings.

Naina smiled wryly, feeling sorry for the children left behind by Alfin. That was Naina's thought.

The bus understood even more after paying close attention to them. She was the girl Alfin meant.

I don't think he knew Alfin was in prison. I have to talk to him. He should know that the man who defends his honor now needs help.

"Mom has been out of the hospital for a long time, now I'm healthy" Naina said with a smile.

I don't want to remember that man anymore. He will live a new life with a new family.

"We think Mom and Dad don't care about us anymore. If you don't care anymore, who will we be the same? We only have Mom and Dad" they said with a sad feeling.

Naina shook her head, everything they said was not true.

"That's not true, honey. I will care about you all the time. If Mom doesn't come to look at you, it means I have work to do. You guys get it, yeah." Naina looked at them one by one making sure that all the children understood what she was saying.

"Yes, I bought some food, but it all fell there because I was freaking out." Naina recalled her groceries that she had dropped off just like that.

"Well, everything's a mess, Mom." A child who ran to the side of the road, reported his groceries.

"Let me get it," Bas's sergeant as Naina was about to leave.

The man went to pick up Naina's groceries, and brought them to them.

"He who?" ask Naina to the kids.

"He's Uncle Bas, dad's friend. Ever since dad left, Uncle Bas always came to see us."

Naina sneered inwardly, so petty was Alfin's mind. He handed over the responsibility to others, whereas he himself went missing.

"It!" The bus gave Naina some groceries, but the kids accepted them.

"Thank you" said Naina politely.

They sat side by side with a great distance. Pay attention to all the children who are cool to eat snacks. Bas smiled, it had been a few days that he had not seen those smiles on their faces. And that day, all the children looked happy.

"Mmm .. sorry, I .. what are you-"

"Darling! Not finished yet?" A man's call stopped Bas's speech.

"Ah, sorry. I have to go, next time we talk again" Naina said as she left.

"Start!" Naina replied while approaching all the children and saying goodbye to all.

"Mmm... hey, Alfin needs help," said Bas in a hurry.

"He can help himself." Naina leaves without wanting to know Alfin's business.
