The Regrets of the Child and Husband
Pas 8

She was the weakest of all creatures, but at the same time she could become such a strong and formidable figure. Especially when it comes to children.

The cries from outside the room made Aliyah flinch. He suddenly grimaced while holding his head as his body was forced to get up.

Eyes blinked. The room that was light now turned dark. Aliyah was shocked when she realized the sky had turned black. Aliyah only realized, it turns out she had fainted after the departure of Amar.

"Astaghfirullah, Gaffi, Amri" cried Aliyah in panic when she heard the screams of her two children.

While enduring the pain, Aliyah gushed out from inside the room. It turned out that the middle room light had lit up. Then he immediately went to the source of the sound where the cry came from.

Aliyah was stunned when she saw Nana who was already holding Amri. But the boy was still crying loudly maybe because he never found himself making Amri continue to cry.

Nana scowled wryly as she looked at Aliyah, "where is the mother? This is Amri from earlier crying, but mother did not come out as well," said Nana. Aliyah immediately grabbed Amri into her arms.

"This is what the hell? Why did Gaffi and Amri cry so hard that his voice came out?" ask Amar who just came home.

Just now that Amar was standing in the doorway, his eyes instantly widened upon seeing such a messy house.

"Astaghfirullah Aliyah, what are you doing? Is the house like a ship broke? This is what makes me not feel at home. It is better that I spend my time outside, than at home just for me," said Amar because Amar and Gaffi's toys were scattered everywhere. Not to mention the water that came out of nowhere. Amar's eyes widened when he saw the clothes of Aliyah, Amri, and Gaffi just like they wore this afternoon. "You guys haven't been in the shower?" Amar immediately stomped his temple. His head suddenly ached looking at everything that looked chaotic in his eyes.

"Yes, Dad. Masa' from earlier Amri nangis but mother did not wake up. I was already knocking on the door of the room, but mom didn't open the door and went out. Mana Amri and Gaffi cry very fast again," Nana's fight makes Amar more upset.

Amar was increasingly nagging, but not as usual, Aliyah will try to defend herself and explain the matter of what happened, so this time she was silent a thousand languages. Even he immediately took away Amri just like that while holding Gaffi's hand towards his room. It did not take long, finally the crying of both of them subsided. In Gaffi's room, Aliyah immediately bathed Gaffi and Amri alternately. After that, he sat Amri on the sofa and began to drift without saying a word. His voice was only heard while talking to Gaffi and Amri.

"Mom, mamam" said Gaffi. The sister who heard the brother asking for food followed. Amri likes to follow what Gaffi does.

"Mom, mamam, Mbu, mamam" said Amri made Aliyah smile knot.

Amar who had been sitting in the living room just looked astonished at Aliyah's attitude. Aliyah seemed to not care about her existence at all, not as usual that even though she was strict, then Aliyah would still treat her well.

Dinner arrives, as usual Aliyah will serve her family members well. Only, Aliyah remained in her silence. He didn't say a word. Even when Nana asked, Aliyah only answered her potluck and then she went back to silence.

Lately the side dishes at the dining table seem varied and more delicious than usual. This made Amar and Nana so hungry to eat. If usually they often protest with that side dish - that's it again and that's it, then this time not. They ate all the food without any wonder at all.

"Well, this new gini is called cooking. Next time cook like this so we will eat at home. I've been given shopping money while still cooking it-that's all. If the gini is delicious, I will not say where the money I am packing," said Amar after finishing eating.

The night scene is quite varied. From shrimp chili, fried chicken, then kale, and do not forget the default. Without them knowing, Aliyah can shop for the menu because she has extra money from the wages of washing clothes neighbors. Not one house, but three. It's a shame how tired Aliyah really is. But he was silent. He's mumbling. He doesn't want to talk. Especially complaining because everything is free. All they want is there and enough. Affairs lack of where, how to know and where to care.

Huh, what a fate of poor Aliyah.

It was getting late, but Amar could never close his eyes. The side of her bed was still empty. Though it was 10 pm, but Aliyah did not go into the room. Moments of time keep changing. Even now it has been shown almost at 12 pm, but Aliyah has not yet entered the room.

Amar. Wanted to follow and ask, but prestige. But there is no Aliyah, her eyes do not want to be closed. Piqued. He kicked the blanket on the bed until he fell under the bed.

Amar tried to close his eyes, but why did he not go to sleep as well.

"Dam. Why can't you sleep too?" upset ass.

Amar rolled to the right and to the left, looking for a comfortable position, hoping his eyes soon fell asleep, but it turned out that until the hour showed almost early in the morning, he could not fall asleep. Amar let out a rough breath. Then he glanced to his right side, there was usually Aliyah sleeping there, but maybe Aliyah fell asleep in Gaffi's room while putting Amri to sleep, he thought. Then Amar grabbed Aliyah's pillow and hugged her tightly while closing her eyes. Either because it is too sleepy or there are other things that make Amar finally able to fall asleep soundly.

The morning came, as usual after Amar took a bath, so his work clothes were neatly lying on the bed. But because he had not seen Aliyah since after eating until this morning, he then shouted as loud as possible.

"Aliyaaah," he shouted. In a hurry, Aliyah entered the room. By shaking his waist, Amar asked Aliyah to find another shirt.

"My maroon shirt, where?" ask Amar. Aliyah immediately went to the closet and took what Amar wanted and put it on the bed. After that, he turned back around to go back to the kitchen. Amar who saw Aliyah change until stunned in place. Aliyah's silent attitude turned out to be able to disturb her calm.
