Because Sari was so protective of Rashid's food intake, until Rashid turned 4, Sari had never allowed her son to eat food bought outside, every day Rashid eats home cooking made by Sari himself or by Bi Nunung.

As a result, when Rashid was invited to the phenomenal chicken noodle shop owned by Yanto's parents, Rashid really enjoyed chicken noodles specially formulated for him.

" Mom, please make Rashid, the noodles do not use flavoring" Sari said as the store clerk concocted noodles for them.

But still Rashid eats so voraciously, because even Rashid has a hobby of eating a variety of processed noodles, but Sari still limits Rashid only to eat processed noodles once a week.

" Wah... little brother again laper what do you do?", his father Yanto met them while they were all enjoying chicken noodles in a special room that is more private and comfortable, and the, separate from other buyers.

" Any Akung, can Rashid eat here again tomorrow?" Rashid asked while cleaning his mouth using a tissue, after the noodles from his bowl ran out without waste.

" Of course you can, as long as you and your father, you can't come here alone, you're far from Rashid's house".

" Rasyid continued to be able to stop by Akung's house at the end of the road there".

Rashid looked directly at the group, as Sari nodded her head, and Rashid nodded while looking at his father Yanto.

" Would Rashid want to come back to Mbah?, there later Rashid can play flour, someone is making noodles in the back", invited his mother Yanto.

Rashid again looked at his mother, asking for her approval to come back. And jumped straight from the chair as Sari nodded her head, giving Rashid permission.

After getting off the seat, Rashid in his father's apartment and his mother Yanto walked to the right and left of Rashid directly towards the back of the kitchen while holding hands. Every now and then Rashid's body is lifted up and swung by the two of them.

Eli looked at his father and mother-in-law happily, because it seemed like both of Yanto's parents were very fond of children, surely one day the child in his stomach would be very dear to his grandmother and grandfather.

Lucky when 4 years ago Eli was sad and hurt to see the attitude of Rizal who continues to buy time when Eli asked for clarity of their relationship.

Even to the point where Eli only saw with his own eyes, how Rizal's eyes when meeting with Sari, and how Rizal's behavior towards Sari who was clearly already the wife of others. Sari was still special in Rizal's eyes, that was what Eli could deduce from his observation.

Finally, after some dozen times Eli asked Rizal to propose to him, but Rizal still stalling for time, with a thousand and one reasons. Eli decided to step down.

True said Umi, if his age continues to grow, and not young anymore, why survive with a man who can not take the decision to commit to him.

After surviving for 2 years in a relationship with Rizal, finally Eli ended his love story with Rizal. Although sad, but it is better, than his feelings continue to be hanging.

And fate brings Eli and Yanto together during a landslide in Banjarnegara area, Eli who represents the hospital where he works as a volunteer medical team along with 2 friends, Eli, he met Yanto who also volunteered at the refugee post.

The two stayed for two weeks in the refugee camp, helping each other on duty and often exchanging ideas, bringing them closer and closer to each other.

Their status is both singgle and 'jomblo', making them free to meet, and more often meet after they both return to Purwokerto.

At the age of almost 30 years, they finally decided to get engaged to know each other, only 3 months after getting engaged, the two finally got engaged, Yanto felt Eli was the right girl to be a companion to life, as well as the mother of his children later.

Yanto invites Eli to marry, and Eli accepts Yanto's invitation. Both of them are adults, already have a job and income, Eli specialist college can still be continued even though they are married. Only a few months left, until Eli officially holds the title 'Doctor Eli Satyaningrum Sp.M'. An achievement that Eli himself sometimes still does not believe in his ability.

Sunday night, is the day Sari relax while playing with Rashid at home, while waiting for Musa to return from Jakarta, after becoming a lecturer on national television shows.

Lately, Umi and Abi also often come to the house, and play around with Rashid and himself. Makes the home more crowded and warm.

While bi Nunung every day focus on helping cook and care for Rashid. That alone has made bi Nunung sometimes feel tired, maybe because of his age that is getting older.

Umi and Abi also come to their homes more often, maybe a month can go back and forth up to 4 times from solo to Purwokerto, usually on weekends, because always miss the idea of playing Rasyid. Until a few months ago Umi decided to build a house in Purwokerto for her residence.

They had intended to stay at the house of Moses, but the house of Moses has been conjured into a medical clinic that is now increasingly visited by patients, because many who seek treatment to that place then recover, and then recover, and also the cost of handling is relatively cheaper than other clinics. This makes the clinic more widely known to many people.

Umi and Abi built a house not too far from Atmo's grandfather's house, just another village, but still in Purwokerto as well, a 10-minute motorbike ride has arrived, while from the house of Musa transformed into a clinic only takes 5 minutes riding a motorbike.

" Grandson Uti is getting older, Monday tomorrow Uti accompany to school yes, soon Uti and Akung's house is finished in the wake, so Rasyid can sleep at Uti's house if the weekend, soon after, Rashid would, right?".

" Let Rashid be able to have a sister, so if it's a weekend, just stay at Uti's house, will you?".

Sari immediately grimaced to hear the words of Umi, who gave the code so that Sari and Moses immediately added a baby.

Rashid nodded quickly, this time without asking for his mother's approval. Rashid is closer to his grandparents than his father, than to his grandparents.

Maybe because they rarely come home, despite frequent video calls and see grandmother and grandfather from the phone screen, but still Rashid is closer to Uti and his Akung.

One month passed, Uti and Akung had settled in Purwokerto, Friday tomorrow was Rashid's fourth birthday. Sari and Musa had planned to invite the orphans and Rashid's friends to the house in the afternoon.

To pray for Rashid and also to teach Rashid to share with disadvantaged orphans.

And Friday afternoon, Rashid looked so handsome in a white cocoa suit, with a white peci as well, handing out yellow rice packets and various snacks to orphans, and friends.

All of Rashid who has looked smart and handsome from an early age, will be the successor of his father to someone who struggles to teach religion and help others.

And in the prayers that were present at the anniversary event that afternoon, almost all prayed for health, safety and kindness for Rashid.

So did Moses and Sari who stood next to Rashid, looking at their son, and occasionally throwing glances at each other with happy smiles.

" Oh Allah....

Thank you for all the happiness you have brought to our family. Thank you for bringing me to Mas Musa, and for bringing Rashid into our lives".

Sari embraced Rashid, as did Moses who embraced them both with great joy.

...Finishes...

\=\=\=\=

Hopefully all who read this novel will also end with a happy ending like the story of Sari and Moses.

Don't forget to keep smiling, no matter how hard the trials we experience in life, because life is like a spinning wheel. Sometimes above and sometimes below.

It will not be possible for someone to experience sadness continuously, there will certainly be times when we feel happy.

See you in the next novel 🤗 Thank you for being faithful to read until the end of the story. And I apologize for all the filial deeds that the author has done. 🙏😊
