Bonchap 2-1


This afternoon the weather in Jogjakarta city was very hot. Ruby's lunch hour is used to pick up Almeer, as Hiko is still on the beach. While Genta could not leave the cafe that afternoon was quite dense.


The little boy who had shown the beautiful seeds was very happy to see who had come to pick him up.


"Mama!" shout Almeer. He ran away leaving his friends in the play area.


"Assalamu'alaikum, dear," said Ruby.


"Wa'alaikumsalam, Mama." Almeer kissed Ruby's back. "Well, why don't you come get me, Ma?" Almeer looked around, didn't see any of his Papa there."


"Papa still has a job, can't pick up yet. Don't you want to go home with Mama?"


"No, ma. Al is really cool!" almeer said while jumping with excitement. "Al want to come to work Mama can? Look at the people who are good at pictures."


"May," replied Ruby, "take the bag, say goodbye to the teacher, yes."


"Okay, Ma!"


Almeer ran away to pick up her bag inside her classroom corridor locker. While waiting for her son, Ruby slightly pulled over to the waiting room, where some parents were still waiting for their child who was still playing.


"Almeer's Mother?" ask one of the women there. When Ruby turned her head, she was already the center of attention of the people there.


"Yes, Ma'am," said Ruby with a sweet smile.


"It's nice that Almeer has a new mom."


"Sir Hiko must rarely be here, huh?"


"Failed to get a cool widower."


"Hush!"


Ruby just laughed a little at the sound of some people there. Already she guessed, surely her husband became one of the reasons young mothers there diligently pick up their children.


"Have you known Mr. Hiko for a long time?"


"Alhamdulillah, already."


"This mother isn't his first wife, is she?"


Someone's question made Ruby's smile sadly stifled. He nodded his head heavily. If they knew about her relationship and Ruby before, they also knew the scandal that had befallen her in the past.


"Ma!"


Almeer's arrival made Ruby a little relieved. He is still not ready if Almeer's friends' parents intrude on his past. Especially if it sounds in his son's ear. Just imagining it made her heart hurt.


"Have you done with the teacher, honey?"


"Already" replied Almeer, turning to where his homeroom teacher was standing.


Ruby nodded slowly while smiling at the homeroom teacher Almeer. He also said goodbye to the parents of the students in the waiting room before leaving with Almeer.


Before going to the office, Ruby first invited Almeer to fulfill their obligations at one of the nearest mosques. Then they went to lunch. After spending time eating and telling a lot of things, they went to Ruby's office by using an online taxi. Not to forget also Ruby stopped by a minimarket to buy snacks if only her son later needed a snack.


Almeer. "I just want to take care of my mom from the bad guys" she replied.


Abriz cut down while rolling his eyeball. "You proved that he was the son of that shitty man."


"Akihiko Ibrahim. That's my Papa's name," Erat Almeer.


"Udah is already. Not the same father is not the same son, equally can not be friendly," complained Ruby. "Al's coming to Mama's room, yuk." Ruby invites Almeer to leave Abriz, before the two clash.


Almeer's arrival at Ruby's office also attracted the attention of employees, especially female employees.


"Sorry, Aunt. Al still has ablution, don't hold it" Almeer said when some of them wanted to pinch the child's cheek


Instead of leaving, the employees were increasingly anxious with Almeer's behavior. Not wanting to feel his son uncomfortable, Ruby immediately invited Almeer into his room.


Ruby didn't do her job. He actually accompanied Almeer to work on PR first.


"Almeer sleepy, Ma," complained Almeer after finishing his PR.


"Bobok's here, huh?" Ruby arranged the sofa cushions to be used as Almeer's bed.


Almeer took off his shoes and immediately laid down on the sofa. Praying before going to bed before closing his eyes.


"Emc ... Ma!" Almeer opened his eyes again.


"Yes? Why, Honey?" ruby asked by rubbing her son's hair.


Almeer commented on the sweet smile on her lips. "Al Seneng really can be picked up by Mama earlier. Al's ministers said that Mama is beautiful," he said.


"Alhamdulillah ... Mama's happy to be the one you're proud of, honey."


"Mama won't leave Al, will she?" ask Almeer worried. "Al promised to be a son of sholeh" he added.


Ruby clasped Almeer's hand and patted him softly. "God willing to separate us is death, dear. Mama will be in three places Al stands. In front to comfort Al, in the back to strengthen Al, and in the side so that Al does not feel alone."


Almeer grabbed Ruby's hand and kissed the back of the hand. "Al glad God sent Mama Ruby." The sparkle in Al's eyes represented his happiness.


"Sleep, Honey."


Almeer nodded and closed his eyes.
