My Time With Mom

In the afternoon, Abi and Musa were still in a clothing store located close to Wage market.

" Umi wants to shop at the market, but has never been there, she is afraid to go, Musa temenin umi?", take Umi while holding Musa's hand out of the store. Umi also said goodbye to Abi, but Abi was busy chatting with Ardi about the lucrative business prospects in the Purwokerto area, not knowing if his wife and son went to the market.

Of all the possibilities that come to mind, in addition to the three businesses that have been done by Moses, the business that might provide large profits is in the field of culinary and cost services.

Especially if you can choose a strategic location, in the Purwokerto area there are many factories, schools, and universities that are mostly regional children from various regions. Of course, there will be many people who are looking for boarding or ready-to-eat food in the area.

Ardi's view of business is very good, if only he was not constrained by capital and skills of course all businesses want to do it.

It has been ten minutes since the departure of his wife and son, Abi just realized and felt lost. " Just know if Moses and Umi are not in the store, where are the two of them?", Abi asked the store employee.

The store employee who knew and heard if I had asked permission would go to the market, but was cuekin by her husband and chose to leave just like that, now giggling alone.

" Mom and Mr. Moses were at the market, already saying goodbye, but it looks like you are seriously discussing with Mr. Ardi" said the shop employee.

Finally Abi chose to get out of the store and into the car, opening the window glass while rendering his back relaxed. The breeze made his eyes feel sleepy, and finally fell asleep in the car.

On the market

" Umi want to cook anything?, shopping a lot, these two arms of Moses until filled with bags of groceries", Moses was the laziest accompany uminya shopping, and the most lazy,

" not in Cairo nor in Indonesia, just like, if shopping like to accommodate groceries for one year", Moses said.

" When in Cairo all shopping for restaurants you can be understood, but here, only the three of them will eat, but the Umi groceries are like supplies for a month".

" If it's heavy, put it in the car first gih..later come back here again", Umi saw the expression of Moses who tried to patiently carry so much of his groceries.

" Umi want to buy cake, pingin make cookies, umi want to make nastar, snow princess, kastangel, peanut cake, let tomorrow fit into your uncle's house bring fruit, hand, not with empty hands, yes time has not met for years, fitting met not bring anything", Moses finally headed to the car first put the umi groceries before, the, and back to the outlet where uminya had been living.

" Mi, Abi was sleeping in the car, it looks like Abi exhausted all day in the drive to get out there" ' Moses said when he found his umi again.

" Yes, we've finished this straight home, umi want to make a cake and cook rendang, Umi buy this nih", Umi shows empty ketupat, Umi shows empty ketupat, who bought it to the old grandfathers who were selling around earlier.

" A lot of umi, what to do?, later mubadzir dear", Moses protested because he generally bought woven rhombus skin from coconut leaves so much.

After buying the cake, Umi all bought the equipment, because at the house of Moses there were no baking tools such as mixers, baking pans and ovens.

As a result, Musa's car changed like a transfer person, full of basic groceries.

" Will mama want to make what cake?, Sari can not help, can only help clean the jar later if it is filled with cookies, hihihi" I said while giggling myself.

" No papa dear, you see mama, there is already bi Nunung who helps mama, we will make chocolate balls, cake and your favorite snow princess", usually before Lebaran mama will definitely order from one of his friends who has a pastry making business for Lebaran, from Malang deliberately bring the finished cake. Because mama usually accompanies grandma for a walk to the market to buy ingredients for tomorrow's Lebaran dishes, with me too. We usually walk three.

But this time the grandmother had rested quietly in another realm, already in ascertained and already visible from now on, the cheerful face of grandfather every time will be widened because the arrival of his son and grandson vanished somewhere. Surely the middle grandfather misses the grandmother who every want Lebaran must always have Grandpa fishing the biggest gurame to be cooked, as a lebaran dish.

H-1 Lebaran as it is now usually the aroma of rendang and yellow sauce will begin to fill the room. And pecel kecombrang as the last iftar menu on the eve of Eid. But not for this time, mama of course did not dare to tell grandfather to fish, and papa could not fish at all, finally mama just cook rendang, but also, and rica-rica papa's favorite duck. Without gurame and pecel.

Actually mama can also make gurame favorite yellow seasoning grandfather, as every year the grandmother cook, because every year mama always help grandmother cook the food, the food, but mama was afraid to make grandfather even sadder if he saw the yellow spice gurame.

Because a piece of the story about the yellow spice gurame that my grandmother once told my mother and me in the last year. Grandma tells how she used to love Grandma because of the greatness of grandmothers making favorite dishes of grandfather. Includes yellow seasoning gurame.

Grandma once delivered a message that I always remember until now,

" Sari's beautiful granddaughter. If you want to conquer a man's heart the most powerful way to get his heart is to conquer his stomach. Usually men will submit their hearts to women who can satisfy their birth and inner needs. If you have a family later, and want to keep winning your husband's heart forever, in addition to satisfying the mind also you must also satisfy his birth or stomach, do not let your husband full with food snacks outside. If you can cook, surely your husband will be more at home and love you more every day".

And I agree with the words of my grandmother at that time. Evidently by seeing a grandfather who has not been able to move on until now after the grandmother died, it has become a proof of how the grandmother made her grandfather so loved her with food that every day in her cooking.

Indeed, there is bi Nunung who helps to clean the house, but for cooking, grandma always does it herself when she is still healthy. After grandma was sick and finally died, bi Nunung so double clean and cook for grandfather.

Because of that, now bi Nunung and Soleh can be a full day at the grandfather's house, bi Nunung used to come home at 9 am and every 3 pm Bi Nunung will go home to his house which is not too far from the grandfather's house, but because now you have to cook for breakfast and dinner as well, then bi Nunung will come early, usually at half-six has arrived and go home can be up to 5 pm, and then you can go home until 5 pm, after cooking dinner.

Of course, grandfather increased his salary twice, also paid for his son Bi Nunung who is still a 12th grade SMK, I have never seen him myself, because Bi Nunung said his son was following fieldwork practice outside the city, and snekos there. Maybe on Eid tomorrow I can see the second son of bi Nunung.

I chose to get out of the kitchen, and go back to the room to lie down, it felt like my right hand was already very uncomfortable, the smell had started to sour, because it had been a week not exposed to water. And still have to wait 3 weeks until the cast is open, I can't imagine what it's going to smell like. Fortunately, school holidays are long and accounts do not need to interact with many people.

Maybe tomorrow when the Eid will be many neighbors who come to visit, let alone grandfather including elders or people who are quite reluctant here. I had to spray a lot of perfume so that the sour smell from my hands wouldn't get to other people.
