A Love for Khayra

No Meant

♡

The store began to quiet, it was 13:45 Wib.

After performing the zhuhur prayer, Khayra began to clean the table, while Mommy sat down while picking vegetables.

Khayra piled her dirty dishes into a large bucket, to wash in the back well of the shop.

" Dear sit here! " Today Mother feels, Khayra is more quiet than usual.

" Dear, does Bayu still bother you a lot? "

" Why Mother asks like that, is not the master Suwoto also still chasing Mommy. "

" Dear! " Mother sighed for a moment before continuing her words.

" Dear, Mother just does not want you to be close to a boy, later only to be disappointed, you are still too small to feel heartache. " Mother said withholding pain.

" Not all men are like that Mother! " Disputing Khayra bitterly, Khayra bit her lip.

Forgive Khayra, Mother..

Khayra passed to the back carrying a bucket of dirty dishes.

" Chaft.."

Mother looked at her daughter, her first little daughter, who was now a teenager.

Mother's disappointment with her love life with Khayra's biological father, which left a deep enough scar. Until now, the pain is still clearly visible, even though 18 years have passed.

Dear..

Enough Mother who feels this pain, Mother does not want to repeat the same thing to you, you will understand Mother's fear.

Mommy hopes, may you get a man who loves you wholeheartedly, protects you and takes care of you sincerely.

Hope you get the right and good companion. Mommy can only pray for your happiness, baby..

Bono and Blue said hello up to 3 times, Mother Hilda still did not hear.

" Asalamualaikum's chat.." Repeated them.

Blue and Bono looked at each other, until Khayra came from the kitchen because he heard people say hello.

" Navaloupe.." Khayra shakes Mother's shoulders slowly.

" I'm sorry you don't know.." Mother confusion.

" What would Blue want Bono to buy? just like Rara yes, Mother wants to go back. "

" Yes Mother. "

" Dear Mother wants to go back, please serve them! "

Khayra nodded, Mother passed to the back.

They catch the sadness on Mother's face, Khayra knows Mommy is sad because of the short chat earlier.

Sorry Mother..

Khayra does not mean to make you sad.

But until when is the Mother like that, wallowing in the trauma of the Mother's past, and consider all men the same in the eyes of Mother.

Khayra pensively for a moment, until the greeting Bono resuscitated him.

" Rara's.." Bono shook his palm in front of Khayra's face.

" Sorry.Well, what did you want to order? "

Blue looked at Khayra for a moment then turned away, clearly a look of sadness on the face of the wood.

Blue ordered some food, after wrapping it Khayra gave it to Blue. Blue pays with a hundred thousand bills, Khayra still silently gives change.

" Thank you! " Say Blue.

" Oh yeah, same.."

" We're back Ra, thank you. " Switch Bono, Khayra just nodded.

Blue and Bono left the tavern, Khayra sat in the tavern chair.

His head was leaned against the table, Khayra was confused, his curiosity about his father was getting stronger, but he knew this would hurt Mommy.

" Oh God..What should khayra do? " Whispers are smirking.

" Rara's Assalamualaikum.."

Arini came to the store, it's been a long time that she did not help Khayra in the store.

" Walaikumsalam Arini's.."

" Which Sepi Mommy? "

" Mother is behind. "

Arini nodded, " Already. "

" Why are you? cloudy so. "

" Mother.." Khayra covered her ayah's face with both palms.

" Mother is sad because of me, I have offended Mother. "

Arini's eyes are round, what's wrong with her best friend. Khayra has never been the least bit disobedient to the words of Mother, how could a Khayra make Mother sad.

" You have a problem with Mother? "

Khayra started sobbing, Arini sighed. He knew his best friend might not have done it on purpose, Khayra felt guilty.

" What about yesterday? "

Khayra nodded at his sobbing, Arini rubbed Khayra's shoulder.

" Speak to Mommy, apologize don't make Mommy cornered again, you don't know about Mommy's past, don't judge Mommy. "

" If you really want to know, ask Mother carefully do not force, maybe Mother is still not ready. Mother has her own reasons, you must understand that." Arini Imbuh.

Khayra nodded, rubbed the melted tears on her father's face.

" Thank you Arini, you always understood me. " They hugged, Arini took it off.

" Have wept, ugly knows! " Tempta Arini, Khayra smiled.

" Get Mommy, apologize! " Peach Arini, Khayra nodded.

Bono continues to pedal his new bike, along with Blue.

They had just delivered rice parcels and side dishes for Si Mbok.

Blue and Bono wanted to eat in the middle hut of the rice field they passed before going to Bono's house.

" That's Bro's hut, this way. "

They pedaled bicycles turning into a small road leading to a hut in a rice field owned by villagers.

Blue was amazed, with the view in front of him.

" Mother why? how does his face look so sad? " Say Bono is still pedaling his bike.

" There may be a problem. "

" Rara was silent too, dumbass. "

" I hope the problems they face are not too complicated. "

Blue is actually worried to see Khayra often silent and pensive. But what power, Blue does not want to interfere too much with other people's problems, let alone one's personal realm.

They stopped at the hut right in the middle of the rice field, opening the food they had bought earlier.

" Let's eat! " Take Blue.

" Hmm.The aroma of Mother's cooking is incomparable. "

They enjoyed eating while looking at the soothing green scenery.

" Bono, do you know the story of the Khayra family? "

" Not so know anyway, he just lives with Mother and Mbok Fatma. "

" Other families? " Bono shakes.

" Khayra was born here, from a small mother raised without knowing her father, that's the hell I've heard. "

" Have her parents divorced? "

" It may be possible, while here no one has ever come to visit the Khayra family. Mr. Eko and Ms. Ningrum, were also Arini's family who were close to them. "

Bono took a short pause, gulping down his drink.

" Mother is good, but a little closed. "

Blue turned to Bono, "I mean? "

" Yes, Khayra can not hang out with her boyfriend, only I am a boyfriend who has Mother's permission and can be close to Rara. "

" Why is that? " Blue knitted his brows, Bono raised his shoulders.

Blue is increasingly curious about the story of the Khayra family, although Mama and Mommy are friends. But there is no story about them.

Blue gazed far ahead, the expanse of rice fields greening.

Maybe the weight felt by Mother, making Mother insistent, forbidding Khayra to be close to a man, even to make friends though.

There is no way Mother does it all without reason, Mother as a parent, especially a single parent, has its own way to take care of her daughter Khayra. Although it seems a little curbing Khayra's freedom, but all for the good of Khayra.

Although Khayra also knew the limits in associating with those who were not his mahrams, Khayra always kept his distance.
