One Request

Eva's beautiful face is clearly visible fatter than usual when she last came to see him.

She remembered how strong Eva had survived to give birth to her baby. He recalled each of his encounters with Eva, who then made her cheeks wet again with tears.

The baby in Kiran's cradle looked calm and not fussy at all.

"Pity you dear, even for the first ASI from your mother you have not had time to sip. But calm down well, Aunt Kiran will always be there for you. Your mother must be happy to see your tiny face. Funny." Funny."

Kiran rubbed her little red cheeks, still hanging the remains of tears in her eyes.

"Cu, Grandma found this in Eva's room" she said, revealing two envelopes in her hand.

"What is this, Grandma?"

"Grandmother doesn't know either, but it's definitely Eva's."

"It looks like it's a letter, Grandma," he said, looking at the envelope. It contained his name and letters to both of Eva's parents.

"This is a surah for me, Nek, the other one for Eva's parents" he continued.

"Read.." ordered his grandmother.

Slowly open the white envelope in his hand. In the envelope there is a letter that is more or less like this.

*to. Kiran...

Ki, I'm sorry if I have to trouble you for so many times. I feel like I can only get here. I want to ask you something for the last time Ki. I beg you to take care of my son for a while at least if he is up to a year old. Then bring him home to my mother and father as a substitute for my return. Ki, I. I am so grateful to have known you and to have felt like your best friend. You are my best friend in the afterlife.

Also convey my respect and gratitude to Grandma who has taught me many lessons during my stay with him. You are my little family here.

I love you guys ....

I nitip my baby Ki, may he be healthy always ...

I went Ki ...

Greetings, Eva*!

His lips instantly shook, Kiran wanted to say something but stopped in her throat. He could only cry and cry, finding that a surah was Eva's farewell to him.

"Va...!" he said very clean.

He looked back at the other envelope, it was for his parents. Hopefully later if he fulfills Eva's request to bring her baby to her parents' house, they don't mind accepting the baby's presence. And hopefully also Eva's parents can accept that reality with a chest of air.

For a week he was in his grandmother's village and then he decided to return to the city with the baby Eva.

The plan is that he will go home first to leave this baby to his mother. She believes her mother can really help Kiran to take care of the tiny baby. Although he should be responsible for explaining all of that to both of Kiran's parents.

After getting off the taxi, he carried the baby into one of the houses that are fairly magnificent. It was Kiran's parents' house.

With a feeling of anxiety and fear, he also ventured to enter and meet his parents.

The bell rings and someone appears from behind the door. During this time he was also guilty of not telling this to his parents because Eva did not want many people to know about him.

The one who appeared from behind that door was none other than his own mother.

"Kiran.." said his mother in shock.

"LT....!" answer Kiran.

"What the fuck, son, where's that baby from?" ask her mother restless.

"Kiran can come in first, right, ma'am? tanyanya then without questionnaires mother first.

"Come on, come on in."

"What does this mean, Kiran? You're making me worry, you know not."

"Sorry Mom, it wasn't Kiran's intention to be like that. I'll listen to Kiran's explanation."

"Alright, let's go explain to mom." her mother asserted.

"A few months ago, there was a friend of Kiran who had been betrayed by her boyfriend. She is pregnant and her boyfriend is not responsible. Finally, because he was desperate and intended to abort his womb, Kiran also tried so that he did not do such a stupid thing. Kiran takes the two away from the campus environment and the neighborhood in which she lives. Kiran take him to Grandma's village. Mom, when I came to Grandma's house and told her everything, then she didn't mind and finally accepted my friend to stay there for a while, at least until the baby was born. But shortly after she gave birth to this baby, she died, Mom.." Kiran told her mother who still half-believes.

"Mom can ask grandma for the truth" he continued.

"Then why did you bring this baby here, son?" ask mother.

"I think mom can help Kiran to take care of her. Because his mother left this baby to Kiran until he was about a year old. After that, Kiran had to take this baby to her grandmother's house as Eva told me."

"Kira..."

"Mom wouldn't mind, would you?"

"Mom doesn't mind baby, you did the best thing for your friend. At least I'll help you take care of this baby. Let's help you carry."

The baby was handed over to her mother's soft hands. He had imagined this before, that his mother would definitely agree let alone he was very happy with the children

"Son, this baby is so pretty. Is there a name?"

"No, Kiran still doesn't think."

"Where would I love Hanum's name. Hanum means glory."

"It was also very good, ma'am." replied Kiran sparkling.

"What's your next plan, Ki?"

"Kiran plans to live here first, even though it must go back and forth between campus and a house that is quite far away."

"Well, I'm glad you're here too, son."

"Thank you, Mom..."

"Now you take a shower, let me hang giving this baby milk. It looks like he's hungry."

"Yes, Mom."

I see sincerity in the eyes of mother, sincerity of a mother. I am so grateful to have found the right person to take care of Hanum. At least Eva can smile now.
