Andina is aware of the talent Lala has that likes to sing. Admittedly, Lala's voice was nice and melodious. The atmosphere of the house is never quiet with Lala singing. Not a Korean song or a dangdut that he sings. Andina directed the child specifically to bring the religious genre in the form of Islamic songs and Prophet's prayers. Every class increase Lala always called the school to perform on the stage singing with gambus music as the current trend. Some fellow student guardians advised Lala to participate in a child singing talent contest organized by one of the television stations. Andina shakes.
Even Arya has suggested. "Honey, Lala auditioned. Love space to develop his talent."
"Bapi, if Lala is supported to sing the free genre, continues to be trained and trained, then every stanza will ring, seeping into the heart and mind. Can forget to teach and neglect in prayer."
"But if it is consistent in nasyid or in general religious music, the contents are salawat Prophet and solicitation of kindness. Every time it is trained and continues to be trained then the ringing and percolating It contains goodness and calms the heart. This is a trick to educate children to love Islam and love to sail."
Arya.
"Didn't we want children to succeed not only in the world but in the afterlife, did we?!"
"You're right, honey. More love." One kiss landed on the cheek.
Lala and Athaya's chatter disperse the pensive daydream of Andina recalling a conversation a week ago in bed, before Arya asked for her favorite ration.
"Call dong brother. I'm just gonna perform."
"Yes, be patient."
"Call who, baby?" Andina looked at Athaya who started sticking the phone in her ear.
"Manda, Mom. I promised you I'd watch me sing." Lala explained it.
"That's Manda!" Athaya pointed at the pink-tailed child with a picture of My little pony in the middle of the daze. Rushing Athaya over.
"Manda, look forward to Lala." Athaya pointed with her chin. Lala was seen waving her hands with a smile.
"Sir Taya, how are you? When do you come home from school?" While walking followed by her nanny, Manda with long hair braided two enthusiastically asked. Every time he played to Lala's house, he did not see Athaya again since entering Junior High because of school while attending school in Tahfidz boarding school in Tangerang region.
"Alhamdulillah. It's been 3 days, Papi's picked up and everything."
"Ish, Lala didn't say. I also want to take a pick up.pengenen see school Kak Taya." Manda pursed her lips in protest. Athaya just laughed, did not have time to answer to Lala and Manda excitedly hugged each other because the singing contest event was about to start.
"Lala same aunt the best anyway. Yaaaah." Manda thumbs up before parting ways with Lala and Aunt Andin who will be preparing for the back stage. It appears Memey's men are sitting in a gang while eating ice cream.

2 Cars drive from the mall to cafe zero. Previously Andina had contacted Celine, asking to be prepared a special room for a group of children who would celebrate the victory by eating. The duet of Allahul Kafi song received the highest rating from the jury so that it came out as the first champion. Albiru's catwalk action also won the 2nd champion award. What a fun action without a target that bears a gift. Lala and Al became the participants with the most supporters and were shocked.
"Yes. Eating-eating-" The kids so down in the cafe parking lot.
"Yuhuu. Eating at cafe mami akuuu." Memey turned to lead his army because he knew best the place that mama Andin mentioned.
"Si Willi, how did she do it?" Ricky and Arya follow the wives who walk in front of him.
"Bikin what?" Arya turned while frowning. Unconcerned the wives walking in front also turned their heads for a moment.
"That's time Memey. The boy can't sit still, the gentility is like a tenacious heat."
Placed.
Arya flicked Ricky's forehead. "Serious terminated. Basis-" followed by curling the neck of the person who is most often with him it.
"Beb, your husband-" Andina shook her head followed by a laugh at her best friend who patted the eel.
"Congrats, Andin." Celine welcomed the arrival of the group and embraced Andina as an expression of happiness. Willi was in the task of breaking up noisy children due to the seizure of seats.
"Thank you, Ci. But just a cry. Thank God, I didn't expect to win." The excitement is getting crowded with the arrival of Marisa and Rade who can only follow because they wait for Rendi and Satya who will leave for Jakarta.
Three tables are arranged tightly to extend in order to accommodate all troops. Food and drink filled the table. Time to start a meal.
"Alhamdulillah today we can gather together even though it is not complete." Arya also called Athaya who was busy chatting with Manda in the seat palin tip. "Sister, lead the do'a first!"
"I'm a Papi." Al showed his hands with passion. "Allahumma---"
"Ihh is wrong-" Lala cut while giggling. The others laughed at Al.
"That's a prayer for bobo, Al." Lala continued to whisper in Al's ear which was now a beard with a glowing face. Al repeated the prayer, this time correctly.
Silence is only created during eating. After that, the noisy children back on the air in the play area available swings, slides and seesaws.
"Sir Taya, let's play the slide." Manda approached Athaya who became the supervisor of the leaks.
"No ah. I'm not a kid." Athaya remains focused on watching Nana and Rezvan play seesaw.
"Sir Taya, tomorrow I'm going to Jakarta. Vacation at Oma's house continues to Bali with Oma, want a vacation at the aunt Nita hotel." Manda took something out of her pants pocket. "This is for sister Taya."
"What is this?!" Athaya noticed a glass-like object with yellow cherry blossoms inside.
"It could be a keychain or a bag." Manda practice rotating the upper circle so that it functions as a hook. "I bought vacation time to Japan with Papa. Now make Taya aja. We will not see you again, keburu kak Taya go pesantren again. Make mementos, hi hi hi hi." Shamefully.
"Thank you Manda." Athaya smiled happily. "Well, her name is Amanda Molek." He was amazed to see there was Latin writing on the back."

Just a day apart I missed again.
Andina took a long breath. He closed the door to Athaya's room after a long time in the room. Just by looking at all the trophies in the glass cabinet, fingering the jovial elder figura in a taekwondo uniform, slightly treating his longing.
"Ma, another month brother participated in the Junior High story telling competition. Doain yes."
The face of the spirit of the firstborn is still pictured when together yesterday in the boarding school. His father asked for the same prayer.
Downstairs he found Lala who was accompanying Al to play lego. His heart warmed to see the brothers seem to get along and love each other. Including Athaya who is also always seen protecting his two younger siblings. During the holidays, Lala and Al looked sticky playing always a three. Maybe because the old miss did not meet.
"If your mother's nyari is in the room. Mama's gonna take a shower." Andina rubbed the heads of her two children who seemed to focus on making transformers.
"Yes, Ma." Lala who replied without taking her eyes off choosing the color of lego to be installed. Al just nodded.
The cold water from the shower radiates strongly, as if a totok of reflection that refreshes the head and the entire body. Clad in a bathrobe and hair wrapped in towels, Andina came out of the bathroom after 15 minutes of body cleaning to welcome her husband home in 2 hours.
"Eh, Papi, how come you've come home?" Andina was quite surprised to see Arya was already sleeping on the sofa hugging her legs.
"Meeting the same Mr. Vishnu suddenly canceled. I got to the hotel." Arya patted the sofa to let Andina sit next to her.
"The son of Mr. Vishnu was arrested by the police. Drug cases." Arya hugged Andina's waist. Sipping the smell of soap on his wife's body.
"Kasian--" Andina sincerely empathizes with the news that would shock the family of her husband's relationship.
"Honey, our kids should all go to the boarding school." Arya turned to lay Andina down and she went up on it with both hands resting on the sofa. "The present times are worrying. Children must be given a strong religion." He began to open the knot of the bathrobe rope and insert the face into the chest.
"But don't be. Later Lala's with Al coming in!" Andina tried to hold Arya's face. "Bapi, hmph--" One******* escaped his mouth because of Arya's lip play at his weak point.
"The door's locked, baby." One sign of ownership was successfully made in his favorite part. His passion rose to the crown to hear the cry of Andina who escaped for the second time.
Arya looked up with eyes that were already foggy of desire. The face of his wife was full of love. "Honey, another 3 years Lala Junior High while hyacinth. Athaya entered high school as well. The house will be quiet there's only Albiru."
"That means?!" Andina closed her eyes enjoying the Aryan handplay that went down into the valley.
"We made a sister for Al so she'd have a playmate at home." His lips swept across the white and smooth neck, moving all the way to the auricle.
"Hmph, mode." Andina shakes. But the response of his body that jolted asked Arya to do more. She stared at the nanar with both hands clutching her husband's back firmly.
Arya smiled smugly looking at the wife who started 'sakaw' because of her actions. He threw his pants in any direction. Doing what needs to be done.
From the dark window glass with white curtains swing slowly blown by the wind from between the looster, it looks bright because it is only 3 pm and the weather is very bright. The cool air in the room turned hot and sultry. The appearance of 2 people who are fused with sweat condenses on the back and forehead.
"Mama--"
The bangs on the door sounded loud after Lala's voice could be heard calling.
"Why'd the door be locked."
"If it's still day, don't lock the door."
Lala's protest made Andina open her eyes. "Bapi, it's Lala--" her eyes that I'm asking Arya for understanding.
"Bag, baby. Soon nyampe." Arya doesn't care. His hard work to make his sister Al has only just begun. And he will continue to 'work' every day because all this time Andina uses kb calendar. So, say goodbye kb calendar.
"Mom--Open the door!" Al's voice that was almost crying was now heard. "Hwuaaa-"
"Mama--Papi--adak nangis." Lala banged on the door again.
Simultaneously, in the room there was a long groan with a stifled voice and the collapse of Arya on top of Andina's body. "But open the door, I'm going to the bathroom." Andina regulated her breathing which was still stingy. The same with Arya.
"I love you, babe." Arya kissed Andina's forehead, cheeks, and lips many times before descending. The more years of living together, the more love and unfortunately for the mother of her children. She felt grateful to be paired with Andina who was present to complete her life.
