Andre escorted Hanna to the side of the road, and he just saw her without coming down. Hanna was greeted with a warm hug by her three children
"Mother where have you been? How long was she going to be home?"asked the eldest who was only five years old, Hanna looked at her older sister with a smile
"Mother's got business, are you crying?"
"No" answered all three at the same time
"Smart kid"Hanna patted her three kids' cheeks gently"Now tell me what's the same Aunt?"
"Thank you Auntie"
"Smart child, now you go home and remember don't be naughty, pity your mother" said Miska by looking at her sister who looked so tired.
"Yes Aunty"how anxious the three of them, the eldest way first while his two younger siblings hold Hanna's hand while jumping for joy.
"Thank you mbak"Miska just nodded her head with a smile, actually she wanted to ask where her sister went, and why after returning to the house her eyes were so swollen, something must have happened. But the intention was he undo, because there will be questions from his three nieces that are funny funny
"Are you hungry?"
"I'm so hungry mom" very innocent answer from the mouth of her second child
"What do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat noodles, mother" replied the youngest by looking up at Hanna with a smile
"Well, I'll cook you noodles, but you have to take a shower first"
"Yes mother"he had to sacrifice their happiness for his own happiness, it was too selfish. They're not wrong, they're just victims of his father's selfishness, and that doesn't mean he'll have to sacrifice those who don't know what.
"I can't leave them, I can't be selfish, so how do I get to live for them?"Tama the firstborn opened the door and turned on the light
"Tama"
"Yes Ma'am"
"Mother ask for help, take a bath with your two sisters yes, mother will cook for your dinner"
"Yes Ma'am"Tama was so mature at the age of her who was still in say toddler, painstakingly she brought her two younger siblings to the bathroom, while Hanna was busy cooking in the kitchen even though her heart was raging
"You're done?"hanna asked when she saw they were tidy with her clothes, the three of her nodding her head while smiling"Then we eat now"good boy, they sat down holding their plates. Hanna scooped the rice into her third plate
"Now eat, but before you eat pray first"Tama leads the prayer and after that they eat, they are so greedy even if the side dish is only with instant noodles. Hanna's heart was so filled to see those who never complained of anything she cooked.
"Mom why don't you eat?"ask Tama
"Mother isn't hungry, you eat right after that go to sleep"
"Mom should eat, if not eat surely my sister who in the stomach of the mother will starve"Good name, Tama who is submissive, Tama who is considerate even though her age is still too early. Hanna rubbed the five-year-old's head gently
"Mother will eat later, after the mother has taken a bath"Long dinner has passed Hanna who is still sitting by looking at the money a hundred thousand given her sister
"Hanna"call Miska by holding the back of her sister who was washing dishes
"Ahhh"serrite Hanna was surprised by holding her belly
"What are you thinking?"Miska stared at her mere puppet sister"You have a problem? Tell me how time can reduce the burden on your heart, remember Hanna is currently pregnant do not because you stress the baby in your womb will also be stressed"Hanna is still silent"You don't trust me?"this isn't the first time she's been betrayed by her husband"Remember Hanna we're brothers"
if he told his older brother whether his older brother would turn on him or instead support him, he was still speechless by looking at his belly that was starting to enlarge
"Do you hesitate to tell me?"Hanna was still silent"Of Hanna don't just shut up"Hanna was still silent without the slightest reaction"Where are you from? Why are your eyes so puffy? Did you fight with your husband?"Hanna took Miska to the dining table
"Where should I tell you all about it? My chest feels so painful"
"Tell me, the next time you tell me, your burden will be less"
"Mas Tommy, mbak"Hanna couldn't hold back her tears, her heart was so sore
"Tommy is acting again?"Hanna nodded her head"Why can't a man like Tommy change, don't you remember him currently containing his flesh and blood?"
"Mas Tommy's in jail"
"Ha"Miska was surprised"What did he do to get to jail?"
"Mbak fraud case"
"Have he married again?"Hanna was crying with her head nodding"A guy like her has to be castrated, he's Han's veneer"
"I'm really confused right now"
"What are you confused about, right? Without you reporting him to the police, he's under arrest"
"How about the rest of my life, huh?"Hanna held her chest"How do I meet my daily needs, mbak Miska know my current condition"Miska settled her sister with great pity, as long as Tommy went and did not tell me, Miska is the one who meets the needs of her sister and her three children. Miska's heart is so sad to see the life of her sister, do not be able to buy new clothes to eat every day Hanna had to try hard, then how the next step while her sister's husband is currently in the police station.
"I'm confused" replied Hanna while covering her face with both hands" I was confused, how can I support them, mbak"Miska rubbed her sister's crying shoulder"Should I give up all three of Tommy's children to his family?"
"If it's his one way so they're guaranteed his future why not?"
"But I can't mbak"
"Why?"
"I already love them, ma'am"
"If it's only because of affection but their future is threatened it's free Hanna" Miska looked at her sister who was still crying"You can see them whenever you want"
"I won't be able to answer their questions and cry when I leave them, madam"
"Over time you will get used to it, you also have to think about the baby who is still in your womb, the future you also have to think about. Right now don't you think about her future, for her birth expenses, her living expenses after she was born also start you think about"Hanna looked at her sister"I can help charge for your birth later, later, but I also can't promise to help you when he's born. You know, I also have a family if I just help you with your spending money, I can afford it but when?"ask Miska"I don't mind helping you, but your three children are not your responsibility let alone me. They're just your stepchildren not your husband's family and your husband's ex-wife handing over her full responsibility to you, but if her father is able to provide for you it's your new responsibility"Miska spoke at length"You know for yourself how many months your husband has gone, has he ever supported you and his three children? You can be fine Hanna, but you can't be fooled by a husband like Tommy"
Hanna was silent while thinking, what her brother said was right, all this time she had been too good to take care of her husband's three children even though she was never given a living born. He is still grateful that his three stepchildren do not drink milk, do not wet the bed, nor do they demand much and they are too good. That's what makes him able to accept them like his own son.
