"Mother!" exclaimed Indira with a fluffy smile.
The person called mother turned towards the voice. Both eyes are blotched. His face smiled when he saw the pregnant woman who was approaching him.
"Mother ...." Indira squandered at the arms of the middle-aged woman who spread her arms welcoming her embrace.
"Dira, is this you, son?" The woman hugged Indira tightly. Channeling his longing for adopted children who have not met for months.
"Yes, Mom. It's Dira. Dira misses Mom." Indira releases her embrace to her foster mother named Santi.
The hijab woman then kissed Santi's mother's hand with reverence. Both of Indira's eyes glazed over. After months of not meeting, Indira really did not expect that she would meet with her adoptive mother while in the orphanage.
The woman who took care of him from the time he was a baby to adulthood. Indira leaves the orphanage after she grows up and gets to know Nathan.
That time, Nathan gives her a free place to stay so that Indira decides to leave the orphanage and work to help them and repay the services of Ibu Santi and the people who used to take care of her while in the orphanage.
"I'm sorry Dira, Mom. Dira never told Mom and also did not have time to visit the orphanage to see Mom." Indira said in a sorry tone.
"It's okay, son. I know you must be busy. I'm also sorry that I couldn't attend your wedding. I'm sorry, Son." Santi's mother rubbed Indira's head covered in hijab.
"Mom likes your current appearance. You're so pretty, Dira." Santi's mother smiled. Both eyes twinkled when he saw Indira's stomach that looked bloated.
"You pregnant, honey?" I u Santi rubbed Indira's stomach.
"Yes, Mom. It's been five months. Just a few months to go, I'll be a mother" Indira said with a smile on her face.
Indira admits, if she hates Nathan. However, she never hated the presence of her future baby who was now residing in her womb.
"Alhamdulillah! I'm so happy to see you healthy like this, Dira." Santi's mother smiled as she continued to rub Indira's stomach.
His eyes were fixed on his friends and some of the orphanage children who had seen the interaction between Indira and Ibu Santi.
Santi's mother introduced Indira to her friends and also the sisters of the home.
Meanwhile, Claudia who had noticed Indira looked surprised when she saw the middle-aged woman who was currently talking to Indira and looked very familiar.
Claudia rubbed her eyes to reassure her view if she did not see wrong.
"really. That's really true of him. I still very clearly remember the woman's face despite the years that passed," Claudia said as she was convinced that she recognized the old woman who was currently talking to Indira.
Claudia with a curious look rose from her seat and stepped closer to Indira.
"Dira, what are you doing here for so long?" Claudia deliberately provoked the conversation so that she could see the face of the old woman with the long hijab who looked familiar to her daughter-in-law.
Claudia just wanted to reassure once more if Santi's mother was the one she had met that morning.
A very sad morning to this day.
Both of Claudia's eyes widened as she clearly saw the face of Santi's mother up close.
"Mother's home?"
