A ROSE FOR MOM

A ROSE FOR MOM 39

Bu Suryo astonished. Why did Yu Siti ask so.

"Hide the fly over his lips? Well, I'm not so considerate, yes, I met just a glance, when Arum invited to Angga school. But why are you asking so yu?"

Yu Siti was at a loss to answer. He was too tired to ask that. Though he was still afraid to admit that his son who was given the man was twins. Bu Suryo thought it was just one. What if Suryo scolded her again like when he heard that she had given up her baby?

"Buk.not anything Mom, I've seen ..it's a girl like Nak Arum.. Yes, ma'am, I brought this food out first" said Yu Siti rather nervously, then came out of the kitchen.

"Yu Siti was acting strange today. Is he stressed because Arum left. Hm, I understand, he will always regret his son who was given to that person. But yes regret it, I am not the parents only regret. Duh, if the baby is still there, and is cared for here, it would be nice, I have yu Siti, have her son yu Siti..." bu Suryo muttered to himself while cleaning the table and the leftovers that had to be thrown away.

*** 

Yu Siti went to the street, handing out rice packets to rickshaw brothers and anyone she met and who would accept the rice packets. It is not easy to give it, and it must be careful that the person who is given it is really willing to accept it and needs it.  Once, he saw a half-old woman, dressed in shabby clothes, sitting on the side of the road. When Bu Siti held out the rice pack she was carrying, the woman refused.

"Oh, no ma'am, I already have rice at home." 

Well, yu Siti is very sorry. Actually, it means good, but sometimes people think that he is denigrated, considered despicable or poor.  Humpily, he apologized. After that he must more closely observe who really needs and who is not.

In a horde of rickshaw brothers, Yu Siti gives away the remaining 10 packs. With a face they accepted it, and repeatedly thanked it. But it is not the thanks that are needed, the joy of receiving it, is quite a relief.

Yu Siti walked back towards the house. He has not cleaned the kitchen, it is not good if later Suryo mom does it, although Suryo mom never let him work alone.

As he was about to cross the road, a car stopped beside him. The driver of the car opened the glass, and looked towards Siti's bu.

"Where's Lady from?"

Yu Siti was surprised, looking at the driver of the car.

"Sir Doctor ?"

"Where's Ma? Wanna gohome? Let me take you guys."

"No, Doctor, just from there, I'm on foot."

"What, don't you want to deliver?"

"Thank you Doctor, doctor sir, would you like to stop by?"

"Not this time, ma'am, I have to take her home. Next time I'll stop by."

Ms. Siti looked at the girl next to the doctor. A face very similar to Arum. Ms. Siti approached the car, but Bramasto's car was gone. Nervous bu Siti waved her hand.Begging Bramasto to stop, but apparently Bramasto did not see the wave of the hand. Lemas bu Siti, retreated to the edge and continued to stare at Bramasto's car which was getting away.

"That girl...that girl..is that her? The girl whose face looks like Arum's son? The doctor knew him? Well, why am I late to look at him." muttered yu Siti with an erratic feeling.

Regret continues to haunt him until he enters the house. He went straight to the kitchen, but the kitchen was clean, Suryo had cleaned it. 

"Yu, is it over?"

"Why did I do all this, I'll be tired."

"Nothing, you're a little unwell from morning, now that you rest, I'm going to fall in the room too."

"So I saw the doctor."

"Masa? Where is ?"

"Here you go, ma'am, but I can't stop by yet she said, I saw the same doctor as a girl, who looks a lot like Arum's son."

"really? That's Ratih's name, the same way Bram? Hm, it's good to be so. He looks like Arum, maybe Bram likes a face like Arum."

"Is he what you mean? Who can replace Nak Arum as Angga's mother?"

"Lha I didn't see, how do you know if she's right."

"I'd love to see it."

"Next time I'll ask Arum to bring her here."

"Really, ma'am, I was curious.."

"Yes, later after the break I'll call Arum."

Yu Siti was pleased. Hopefully he can meet the girl.

***

Bramasto deliberately passed by Suryo's house, so that Ratih knew that Arum had lived there for a year. 

"Sureo ma'am nagged me, it's past not wanting to stop by."

"Why didn't you stop by?"

"It's noon, you'll think I kidnapped Ratih."

Ratih laughs.

"So disturbing, now abducting..."

"Yes right. It's good to kidnap a pretty girl, but the kidnapped one wants to."

"Oh, I can.."

"If you don't want to have been screaming for help dong."

"By the way.was that Siti's mom?"

"Yes, forgot to call Ratih. That's Suryo's maid, but it's not considered a maid."

"I mean.?"

"Bu Suryo is very good. Yu Siti was found in a state of pain and helplessness, then helped, invited to the house and considered as family."

"What's so good is Suryo's heart? And the appearance of bu Siti is also not like a maid, right? Her clothes are nice, her face is clean and the remnants of her beauty are still there, right?"

"Right, it must have been pretty."

"Sometimes I want to ask Ms. Arum to take me to Suryo's house."

"Why not just ask me?"

"Yeah.."

"I can also deliver.."

"really?"

"Sometimes I'll take you there. Let Siti be shocked and think that Ratih is Arum's mom."

"Yes, he's never met me, if Suryo's mom had." 

"Well, it's almost home, stop by the diner for a second, okay?"

"Aren't we eating, are we still eating?"

"You buy gifts for your father..."

"Well, why bother..."

"Let's just let me be happy."

Bramasto stopped his car at a restaurant.

"Let's go down and choose what you like" Bram said as he got out of his car.

***

The days are running, passed by the Aryo family very happily. The confusion has passed, and a promise to be faithful and guarding is always whispered Aryo to Arum's ears whenever being alone in the room.

"Today I called Mr. Bram, never knew he was on the road with Ratih," Aryo said one day.

"really? That was so fun. Hopefully Ratih can really be his soul mate."

"Yes, stop being your soul mate, get Ratih whose face is similar to yours," said Aryo teasingly.

"Iih... doesn't he want the soul mate problem...Jealous?"

"It's obviously jealousy, isn't jealousy a sign of love?"

"Ibuuuu.". " suddenly came the cry of Angga from the next room. Arum got out of bed and went into Angga's room.

"What's Angga ?"

"I want to sleep with Mom, why is Mom sleeping with you now?"

"Can't you, you sleep with your father?" asked Arum while laying his body beside Angga.

"Mom usually doesn't want to.."

Arum laughed, that is. don't want.. right it's not the mother but Ratih's mom? If you dare to sleep in the father's room.hm. said inner Arum while stroking the head of Angga.

"Now I want to, I don't work anymore, so sleep in this house."

"If Angga is already bobbed.. I'm here ya." suddenly Aryo appears behind the door of Angga's room.

"No boleeeh.." cried Angga while embracing his mother. Arum slid his tongue towards Aryo.

"Awaasss you yes!" threaten Aryo with a laugh.

***

 

That morning Arum gets a call from Suryo's mom, he asks Arum to come, but along with Ratih.

"Yes, because yu Siti can't believe when mom tells me about Ratih's exact face with your face."

"Oh yeah, Siti's mom hasn't seen her yet, okay, Arum's going to surprise Siti's mom. How about Sunday tomorrow?"

"Not anything Sunday Rum, so that your husband has time to deliver. If you can take your mother. My mother and I met only briefly, but can't tell you much. We are now a family."

"Yes right Mom, it's so nice to be able to rame into Mom's house."

"I'm waiting for Rum, yu Siti is curious" he said."

"Well Mom, I'll say Aryo mas, and also tell Ratih ma'am."

***

 

Bramasto who came to Ratih's house on Sunday was not disappointed if Ratih wanted to be invited by Arum to Suryo's house. That was because Ratih then also invited him along.

"A few days ago did mas Bram promise to go to Suryo's house, well, that promise must be fulfilled this Sunday. Wanna?"

"Well, if I'm with Ratih, let me go to the end of the world as well."

"Hm. that's it," replied Ratih blushed...

 "It's not...But giniii.." said Bramasto as he gave his thumb.

Train smiled broadly. It turns out Bramasto is sometimes funny, sometimes adorable. 

When then a car stops in the yard, Ratih and Bramasto get out. He knew it was Aryo's car.

From inside the car, Angga screamed.

"Isn't that the fairy godmother?"

Arum took down Angga and ran towards Ratih. Ratih opened both hands, then hugged Angga.

"The fairy godmother is here?"

"Yes, the fairy godmother wants to go with Angga..."

"Fairy mother .. Isn't that doctor sir ?"

"Because the doctor sir is a good boy, the fairy lady came to the doctor" said Arum who also got out of his car. 

Aryo laughed as he brandished his two thumbs. Bramasto glares funnyly at his best friend.

"Will the fairy godmother go with us?"

"Iya Angga, we're here because we're taking the fairy godmother. "

"Can her fairy godmother boyfriend come?" bram said jokingly.

Train blushed.

"O. so it's true...Good."

Arum and Aryo laughed happily.

"Let's go.." cried Angga.

"Alright, we say goodbye to the same father" said Bramasto who then went inside. These few weeks have made Bramasto accustomed to Ratih's home.

"Nanti Angga with the fairy godmother yes, in her car doctor sir," said Ratih who looked very confused with Angga.

"Mother, can Angga come with the fairy godmother?"

"Bole, the fairy godmother seems to miss Angga."

They went together to Suryo's house. Bramasto brought his own car because in Aryo's car there is Nastiti's mother and Martono's mother, Arum.

Yu Siti briefly looked out of the house. Bu Suryo had already said that they would come together, and that made yu Siti impatiently wait. The heartbeat feels firmer, anxiety accompanies everything he does.

"Yu Siti, you're why, from earlier in and out of the house," said Suryo's mom who was sitting on the porch waiting for her guests."

"Are they really coming?"

"It must be true, their time will lie to us."

"Yes ma'am, I'd love to see their faces, how similar.. "

"Like like twins. Just look at it later."

"Yes, Mom."

"I just called, they're on the road. Said Dr. Bram was with them, too."

"Then I will pour the tea into the cups, let it be served."

"All right, it's up to you"

Yu Siti stepped back, pouring the hot teas into the cup, with trembling hands. A few missed spouts wet the table. Yu Siti cleaned it nervously.His hands were hot because some were hit by a hot tea spill.

"What am I. ouch.. calm down.. calm down.so wet all this.."

Yu Siti wiped the wet cups, placed them on the other tray, then poured them back more carefully.

"Truly he is, is he really.. O Lord, will you allow this time to meet with the children of the servants? And that's the answer to a servant's never-ending plea?"

All the cups prepared for the guests were filled, Yu Siti cleaned the table from the spilled tea water.

Then the dishes containing food were carried forward first, neatly arranged on the table. Seen by Suryo ma'am who was still sitting on the terrace also intermittently looked at the road.

Yu Siti walked to the terrace.

"Yu. food that you prepare, just put it on the table, all of you," said Ms. Suryo.

"Mom, there's tea left."

"Waiting for that is the most frustrating thing, Yu, it feels like a long time."

"Yes Mom.."

"Just sit here, not forward.backward, forward, backward."

"All right, ma'am."

Yu Siti sat down in the chair near the door. Stare towards the road with a restless feeling.

Then when a car came in, Suryo stood up, followed by Yu Siti.

And another car came in.

"That's Bram's car, '" exclaimed Suryo's mom.

Arum went down first, then opened the door for his mother and for her in-laws. Then take her closer to Suryo's mom.

"How are you, Mrs Martono, we've met."

"Yes right. This is Aryo's mother.bu Nastiti."

"Welcome to see Miss Nastiti, I am also Arum's mother" Suryo said.

Yu Siti stood up straight, which she was looking for was not yet visible. He doesn't care about the guests getting out of the first car. Perhaps the name Ratih is in the doctor's car, thought Yu Siti.

Then Bram went down, with Ratih, and Yu Siti widened her eyes. Looking at a beautiful face that is very similar. Unknowingly Yu Siti stepped closer to Ratih, looking at him sharply. 

"Oh my God, this is true.there is a mole above the left lip," whispered yu Siti slowly. His body trembled, then collapsed and almost fell if Bramasto did not catch him.
