The Fortitude of a Mother
I want to see you not sad anymore

"Yes already, then you think about it first.Mommy also does not want to force you to stay in the mother's house" said her softly "Mother just does not have the heart to leave you alone, after all...I leave you the same mother son," he continued sad

"Yes..soni will think again.But why would mom want to leave this house? here are many wonderful memories that we went through together," he stared fixedly at the mother.

"Haahh, that's exactly son.which makes the mother have to leave this house, too many memories of the mother with your father here, it feels very crowded if you remember all that.However, if you live in the house of a brother disah, if you live in the house,at least I won't be too sad" his eyes glazed over every corner of the room, as if he were storing all the wonderful memories in his brain.

"That's it.." muttered soni.

Since his conversation with soni at that time, Mirah has not been able to make the right decision.He is still waiting for how soni's verdict, his responsibility as a mother who detained him temporarily remained in the house.

Although it is undeniable that sadness is still reluctant to go from his heart, especially, it is always clearly illustrated in his eyes every time he spent with the deceased husband in the house.

Tears flowed again, driving down the cheeks musususus.Padahat that time mirah was cooking, for their lunch.Sambut waiting soni and nana home from school, that day he prepared vegetables asem, fried tilapia, sambal terasi, terasi,fried tempeh and crackers as a complement.

"O Allah.Give me always strength, fortitude, patience, to live all these lives, as well as peace of heart.Put the amir kang in a beautiful place by your side," do'a mirah interrupted his sobs.

"Assalamu'alaikum...!" greetings sounded from outside.

Mirah answered her greeting, then rushed to open the door, and it turned out that her son had just returned from school.

The child was scrambling to kiss the mother's hand, but then their attention was diverted to the mother's swollen eyes.It is clear that he was crying, they did not question him, either,for fear of adding to the mother's grief.

"Heeemm, the aroma is very fragrant.Mother cook vegetables asem and friends 'yes, nana so laper nih." said the little girl cheerfully, while rubbing her small stomach ngusap.

"Ehm, dear nana.Into the room gih, save her bag and then change clothes.Continue washing hands to clean, then deh eat.It applies also to soni 'yes," she gave understanding with a gentle smile engraved on her lips.

Nana was just a whimper, then he and soni carried out the orders of the mother.

The three of them also ate with solemnity and voraciously, the mother's cooking did taste very delicious and delicious on the child's tongue.

"Feel the best mother" said soni, she spoke with her mouth full

"Thank you, son, the compliment."Mirah

After eating and cleaning everything, they immediately took ablution and performed dzuhur prayer together, followed by do'a together.

"Oh Allah, I want to see my mother not sad anymore, keep my family always," do'a soni in heart.
