PDKT



This afternoon Wardah and Eza are going to Dad's grave. As promised Eza will deliver it. Oh yea! Wardah has not told Mommy about his whereabouts in Jombang. He wanted to give a surprise to his mother.


Where did the car he was driving at the moment. Suddenly out of the rectorate building where Farhan, this car has been parked neatly in front of the building.


"Whose car is it?" ask Wardah umpteenth time.


"People's car, it was minjam" replied Eza.


But since Eza was with him, there was not a single time Wardah saw Eza calling or communicating with other people. Whatever! What matters is that he can go to Dad's house right now. Meeting kangen after two months in Jakarta.


Eza stopped his car in front of the flower shop. Wardah took a sow flower and a bottle of mineral water. While Eza took a series of lily flowers are very beautiful. Hadian for his Father-in-law later. Haha.


"Later I change the money, Mas" said Wardah after they entered the car.


"I'm sure I'll have dinner for the fee" Eza replied with a sweet smile.


For a moment Wardah looked stunned to see it. This one creature of God is very unfortunate if missed,


"Ready boss!" answer Wardah with respect.

This is Wardah and Eza now. In the middle of the highway to the left right there are houses right last resting us. Wardah looks nervous about meeting Dad. He is usually alone or sometimes his family. But this time he brought a foreign man who was not yet known to his father.


"Quiet, patient, God has arranged our way of life as well as possible," said Eza stroking the head of Wardah wrapped in a headscarf


Wardah looked at Eza and nodded. He should be cheerful. You can't be sad because of him. Wardah started walking through the meal. The terrain to get to Dad's tomb is quite far too.


"Assalamu'alakum Dad Dedek," said Wardah after arriving at the meal his beloved father.


"I'm sorry, Dad, Dedek can just look now." he said again with a smile rubbing a gravestone engraved.


"Let me lead the prayer" said Eza. Wardah nodded and followed Eza who started reading Yasin's tahlil and letters. Wardah was stunned once, it turns out that there are also city people who memorized tahlil and Yasin. Masayallah...


Tears that he did not want to show at the tomb of the father, now easily broke out like a flood. Wardah cried in silence while rubbing the headstone of his greatest man. It's been years, but he's still not willing to go. Even though he tried his hardest to shake it.


Eza can't bear to see that. Wardah in his arms. The exclusion of Islamic laws that he has been holding. He couldn't see Wardah crying. Wardah's getting sobbing in the chest of Eza's field.


"I'll take you home?" eza said softly. Wardah nodded obediently.


Eza leads Wardah back to the car. Highlight Wardah's eyes catch a woman and a man she knows very well. Mother and Brother Yusuf. Aye! There's them. They are also watching themselves.


They're approaching Wardah and Eza. Eza who did not know Mother only thought if it was another visitor eating.


"Dedek kangen Daddy," said Mother.


"Yeah, Mommy knows that," said Mommy gently. Swiping his son's back full of affection.


Yusuf's brother hit Eza's arm spontaneously. Very familiar to that guy. Eza replied to her with an awkward smile. He just knew it was the Wardah family.


"Not to be awkward. Farhan told me everything" said Brother Yusuf.


"I'm Yusuf. His brother Wardah" said Brother Yusuf.


"I'm Eza Bang, greetings," replied Eza gerogi.

Awkward, groggy, dredeg, jumbled into one. Now Eza is driving a car owned by Kak Yusuf to go home. Her car? Let it be Eza's own business. Yusuf insisted on forcing Eza to come in his car. Okay fine! Who's afraid? Eza would of course. Although the three flavors were now mixed into one hot pot.


"Boss you're young" whispered Mother to Wardah.


"Gee! Mommy mah that, already want to have two grandchildren still aja ganjen," ledek Wardah.


"Hee, not for Mommy laah, for the girl Mother," whispered Mother again. And rest assured! Eza can hear it. He smiled to himself listening to Mother's words.


"Girl? Didn't Wardah ever get married? Or is the mother just keeping Wardah's mood from going down?" inner Eza who is now thinking.


"Son Eza returned to Jakartanya with Wardah or want to go home first?" ask Mommy.


"God willing with all my aunt, Mas Farhan also invited me at his wife's 7th monthly event" replied Eza.


"Try if you didn't call Anisa! Surely Mommy will not know if the dedek to Jombang!" mama said.


"Dedek does not want to give a surprise to Mother," whine Wardah.


"Yeah, surprise ajalah every home," said Mother hugged her child.


While in the front seat appeared Kak Yusuf interviewing Eza. From work to family.


"It is not that easy that you can be close to my sister Za," said Brother Yusuf shrinking the volume of his voice. Sontak Eza is shocked. It looked like it was fun to talk, why is it so scary now?
