Rima looked so jovially joked with David, though,even sometimes David was overwhelmed with some rima babbles that sounded tickle the ear plus his question that sometimes makes no sense.Such as one question that makes me also surprised to listen to him while wearing my hijab.
"Dad...?"
Call Rima.
"Hmmm...."
David answers his daughter's questions despite his eyes focusing on the laptop.
"Try to answer, between Nai's mother and Sahira's mother who first met with father?"
Tanya Rima still sounded ordinary.
"Mother Sahira...."
David's answer also sounded ordinary.
"Dad Huff, why don't you just meet Naima's mom first?"
Rima Protest.
"meaning?"
David asked confusedly, as well as me as a listener.
"Yes, if you first met Naima's mother first and married then gave birth to me, I will certainly never feel sad left by both parents when I was a child."
Rima's reply sounded so sad, that it hinted that she was actually beginning to understand what was happening in her memories for the past five years.
"I'm sorry, dear father...."
David immediately hugged Rima and could not resist tears of regret because he was also among the parents who abandoned Rima for fear of accepting the reality due to the incitement of Arya affair Sahira,although he lived Rima with an abundance of material but regret always followed him because he never gave the affection that Rima needed from her baby up to five years.
I who love Rima so much also feel the sadness of hearing Rima's actual words it is a complaint wrapped in questions.
Not wanting them to dissolve in sadness, finished wearing my hijab I approached them as if to melt the atmosphere.
"Hey....why is there a drama so early?"
"And David, hurry up and get ready when you're late for the office...."
I said as if I wasn't listening to their conversation.
"Yes, hurry up, father..."
"It's my first day of school and I don't want to be late."
Said rima releasing his embrace.
"Well...."
"Yes ..iya .., good princess."
"You're coming down first Dad's coming soon...."
David said to divert his sadness by laughing.
"Dad...."
"Fifteen minutes...."
Rima said a warning.
"Every princess.....!"
David answered like a royal soldier who obeyed the orders of his daughter's master.
With my hands together, we went down to the dining room.
Sahira was at the dinner table first.
"Good morning Sahira's mother...."
Sapa Rima while going down the last steps.
"Thank you from anywhere baby, didn't I tell you to go straight down to the dining room for breakfast."
Sahira asked annoyed.
"I'm from Nai's father and mother's room .."
Answer Rima.
"Didn't mom tell you to go straight to the dining room?"
"Why be a disobedient child?"
"Is this what Nai's mother taught you?"
Sahira asked with a high tone of voice heard.
"I'm sorry Sahira's mother...."
Rima lowered her head feeling sad because all this time no one had ever spoken in such a high tone to her.
"Sahira..."
"I think you're overreacting?"
I said try to rebuke Sahira.
"Naima, please don't interfere with him my son I want to teach him discipline so that he becomes a successful person later."
Deny Sahira.
"But you should also know, I'm the mother who took care of him since I know better what his needs are."
"And you should also know, if you want to discipline your daughter, you should also look at the right time for the things she has to obey."
I said firmly.
"What do you mean?"
Sahira asked again raising her voice.
"Please control yourself..."
"Before you teach Rima to be a disciplined child, you must first learn to discipline your emotions."
"Learn to be calm to be a good mother."
"You don't have to teach me..."
"I know better what's best for my daughter."
Reply Sahira.
"Sorry Sahira, I didn't mean to teach you but I'm trying to explain to you that discipline also has time."
"It's true that you ordered Rima to go straight down to the dining room.But you know what time it was?"
I was trying to explain what discipline is to Sahira.
"All I know is Rima's done packing and good to get down to breakfast."
Sahira replied that he would not lose.
"Six o'clock in the morning is a very early time for his breakfast,and so early that even the Mother had not finished preparing breakfast because everyone in this house had breakfast at exactly sixty."
"And that's the rule in this house, does not discipline mean that you have to follow the rules that have been in place and run before?"
I asked back and explained to Sahira.
And like checkmate, Sahira was silent and did not give any more arguments even though the look on her face was filled with an annoyed expression.
"Take your breakfast baby...."
I said approaching Rima and thrusting her two loaves of bread with her favorite chocolate jam that I made while arguing with Sahira.
"Thank you, Nai's mother, for defending me from Sahira's mother's anger."
Whisper the rhyme in my ear.
"By the same darling, it has become the duty of the mother..."
I answered and stroked her hair.
"Good morning....."
Greet Father and new mother-in-law strong from their room.
"Good morning grandpa..."
"Good morning grandma...."
Answer Rima....
"Wow...Darling you had breakfast?"
"Don't forget to finish your milk, princess...."
Said the father-in-law who always treated Rima like a princess.
"Alright grandpa....."
Answer Rima and sip her favorite chocolate milk shake.
David was down soon.
"Good morning...."
Sapa David went down the stairs but refused to go to the dining room.
"Rima baby, finish your breakfast, I'll wait for you in the car."
Said David.
"You didn't have breakfast David?"
Ask the mother-in-law.
"No ma'am, I had a meeting this morning with my client."
David replied, The real reason he was lazy to see Sahira's face.
"Hem..alright."
Said the mother-in-law who also understood David's reason.
"Rima dear, go to the car first mother will be ready for this bread for your father."
I tell Rima.
"Well, Nai's mother..."
Rima answered, standing up from her chair and wearing her bag.
"Rima darling..."
"Mother also accompanied you yes and will wait for you until the study hours are over after that we go shopping.You agree?"
Sahira offered to.
"Sorry Sahira, but in our school parents are not allowed to be in the school environment during study hours."
I said I refused Sahira's offer.
"Rima let's say hello to Sahira's mother and get to the car."
I told Rima to stay polite to the parents.
"Assalamualaikum Sahira's...."
Rima kissed Sahira's hand to say goodbye.
"My husband immediately finished your breakfast the same as David I was also reluctant to linger a long dining table with a human who had broken his veins."
Invite the mother-in-law to the father as well as giving insinuation to Sahira who just quietly enjoy her breakfast.
"Dad mother.we're leaving"
My pamphlets to my father and mother-in-law followed Rima after she finished making bread for David.
"Okay, baby.be careful."
Answer father and mother-in-law.
I also passed from before them.
Seriate.....
