While in another place, Habibah was feeling a great unease. Things that have never been experienced before.
Zelly who saw it so much worried. Given the content of Habibah is quite weak.
" dear... What was? What are you feeling? Is there anything uncomfortable? Or is someone sick? Shall we go check in the hospital?" ask Zelly full of anxiety.
" No mas. I don't know why my heart is suddenly so nervous. And I don't know why I'm worried about Zain's grandmother.
What is going on with him? He's afraid there's nothing, isn't he sick?"
". Hopefully nothing happens to him, just pray that everything is okay. Don't think too much. Remember your condition.
Positive thinking, maybe he misses you and Zain. Do not think too much, remember your condition as well.
Later you can call them to know the condition of his grandmother Zain. Okay well? Now take a break." comfort zelly.
Habibah was only able to obey the words of her husband, although in her heart she still felt anxiety.
In the next day, Habibah got a call from Qodir. Yes, it was reported that the mother was in the hospital because of her sudden condition.
Panic can not be covered from the face of ayu Habibah. With trembling hands and unbending tears Habibah contacted Zelly to deliver the bad news to Zelly.
" Take it easy, baby. I know you're worried, but you shouldn't be that sweet either. If that's the case, we can go there tomorrow to get it. But now you have to calm down, so that your condition does not follow the drop. If you're concerned how can we get rid of Zain's grandmother?" Zelly reminded Habibah with care and tenderness that would calm anyone who heard him.
That's the one that made Habibah feel bad for her husband. His understanding was too high on every single thing related to his past.
" Thank you, thank you for your understanding all this time. Forgive me that Bibah will always trouble you. And I'm sorry that Bibah can't repay him with the right kind...."
" Sthp... What the hell are you talking about, honey? You are my wife, not someone else. And as a husband, it's only natural to be there for you every time you need me. So don't ever say that again. If you still say it, I'm a stranger to you. And I'll be very disappointed.
Whatever I do is only for you to be happy, because if you are happy then I will also feel happy. Vice versa. You must remember my words, you are a part of my life.
If you want to use a language that is more like in love songs, you are half my life, my soulmate and aww.." Zelly has not had time to finish the sentence, Zelly, he's got a pinch on his waist.
Zelly laughed as he saw the look on his wife's face flushed with embarrassment. With pursed lips and drooping eyes. So adorable in Zelly's view.
Because it could not stand the temptation of her husband who continued to laugh while poking his chubby cheeks. Finally Habibah left her husband with a feeling of annoyance mixed with shame because it continues to tease Zelly.

Weekends that are usually sunny now look cloudy. And like the usual days, Habibah can not relax in the morning. Although there is already a coach who helps with homework, Habibah still intervenes to prepare breakfast for her husband and children.
After scooping the rice and side dishes for the husband and preparing to feed Zain. Suddenly, he heard the ringing sound of his cell phone that he put on the kitchen table.
" Let's go, baby, Uma get the phone first" Habibah told Zain.
" Yes, Uma. Zain can bribe himself. Kan Zain has grown up, has gone to school too." said Zain while pulling his dinner plate to be closer to his face.
Habibah rubbed Zain's fist with a smile, then left the dining room to the kitchen not far from the dining room. Moments later, Susan replaced Habibah to feed Zain.
The first ringtone had been extinguished, but Habibah was just about to check the caller's number. The phone rings again. And as soon as he noticed, it turns out that the one who called him was Qodir. I don't know why the worry in his heart suddenly strengthened.
" Assalamu'alaykum.." said Habibah as soon as he shifted the green button on the screen.
" Wa'alaykumussalam warrahmatullah...
Habibahs.... There's news for you." replied Qodir at the end of the phone. Qodir's reply suddenly invited a bad feeling in his heart and mind. His heart suddenly raced along with the subtle vibrations in his body that suddenly froze.
" Mama...." Qodir paused his amulet, but it was clear to Habibah's ears that at this time Qodir was regulating his emotions. It was clearly heard from the sound of Qodir's breath that looked heavy and stingy.
" What's wrong with mom?! Mama's all right, aren't you?" habibah asked impatiently in the panic.
There was a heavy sigh of Qodir before finally saying "Mama has come home.the dawn of mama has come home.." repeated Qodir heard a very clear sound vibration.
The thing that most feared habibah finally happened. The news that he never wanted to hear at all, finally today he must hear too.
Even Habibah could not hear what Qodir said on the other end of the phone. Suddenly everything disappeared from his sight and mind. He was suddenly dazed, even he did not realize when the cellphone he was holding had been released and fell to the floor.
Zelly who was enjoying his breakfast while accompanying Zain who was eating breakfast himself was shocked when he heard the sound of objects crashing onto the floor. With a swift Zelly immediately approached Habibah who was still in the kitchen.
" What's wrong, baby, what's wrong with you?" zelly asked as soon as he saw the state of Habibah who stood with a pale face and empty eyes.
Zelly grabbed his wife's tiny body gently, but his action was enough to resuscitate Habibah who some time his soul went somewhere. Once he realized Zelly was hugging him gently and warmly, Habibah could only let out her tears that suddenly felt frozen.
Zelly did not immediately ask what was and why else to his wife. He let his wife spill all that sadness in his heart in the form of a cry. Although her tears wet the clothes she was wearing. He doesn't care about it.
In see mbok Ratih who was just stunned near the refrigerator with a confused face watching his employer who was crying without knowing what the cause. Zelly just nodded his head as a sign that there was no need to worry about Habibah and then Ratih just returned the nod of his master with doubt in his eyes.
While Habibah was still crying until she felt weak and could hardly stand up, if only Zelly was not hugging him it could be made sure he would fall on the floor. Fortunately Zelly held him in her arms, so as soon as she realized the tiny body in her arms was weakened she hurriedly carried him into the room. Zelly does not want Zain to see his mother who is not okay.
After a while, Habibah finally fell asleep in Zelly's arms tired of crying. Zelly laid Habibah down slowly and carefully, worried that she would wake up.
In his swab slowly the rest of the tears that wet Habibah's cheeks. Stared fixed face that still looks cute even though his age is no longer a teenager. But, somehow Habibah's face still looks like a plain high school boy.
Zelly sighed slowly, she could feel what his wife was feeling. He understood how hard it was to lose such a meaningful person in life. He also knew, there was a special bond between Habibah and his mother-in-law. Although sometimes he felt a little jealous of the closeness between the two. Because during his time as his wife, he had never seen the striking closeness of Anata Habibah with his mother.
Finally Zelly left the room and before he left Habibah who was asleep, Zelly still took the time to cover the wife. Zelly looked back at the wife's face with a slightly chaotic feeling.
Zelly left his room very slowly he closed the door for fear of disturbing his sleeping wife. Zelly headed to the living room and sat on the sofa alone.
His mind was running around to and fro makrkan many things that suddenly filled his head. As Zelly drifted into her mind, there was suddenly a soft touch from a tiny hand belonging to Zain.
" Abahs... Abah why bengong? Where's Uma?" asked Zain with his adorable innocent face.
" yeah, honey.... Lets here.. Abah is no longer happy, my dear.. Abah was just wondering again, Abah's whiz kid misses not the same grandmother Zain? How about we go there to see him?" ask Zelly while lifting Zain into his lap .
" Zain doesn't miss.. Kl same grandma and eye Zain new kangen.." said Zain while staring at Zelly's face full of questions.
" Hm... How about we go see Grandma Masurai? Zain's grandmother is sick again, so tomorrow we look.."
" Who is Masurai's grandmother?" zain asked confused as he felt he did not know her.
" Masurai's grandmother was the mother of Zain's brother. Zain used to meet, only Zain was a kid. So, Zain doesn't remember. If you meet Zain, you will remember. Masurai's grandmother was very kind and very dear to Uma and Zain. So Zain must also love Masurai's grandmother. Okay?"
" Okay.." answered Zain, though he did not understand what Zelly said.
