Bandung.
Early in the morning, Arumi had prepared breakfast for her husband and granddaughter.
It was Monday, the first day Ashraf left for school.
At first Ashraf did not want to go to school, because he wanted the Father to take him to school. However, Arumi continued to persuade Ashraf until Ashraf finally agreed to go to school without being escorted or accompanied by his beloved Father.
“Breakfast Grandma has prepared, let's have breakfast!” take Arumi with you after combing her favorite grandson's hair.
“Sapin!” ashraf Pinta.
“Ok! But, Ashraf ate that much huh!” exciting Arumi.
“Good, Grandma,” replied Ashraf.
Arumi smiled as she held Ashraf's small hand. Then, the two together headed towards the dining room.
“Ashraf where have you been? Grandfather had been waiting for Ashraf from earlier,” asked Herwan by putting on a scruffy face.
Ashraf laughed off looking at his grandfather's face and revealing his well-groomed hair.
“Iya Grandpa knows,” said Ashraf when he saw his grandson's hair is neat.
The three of them ended up having breakfast together before going to school.
A few moments later.
Mr. Udin had just finished heating the car engine to deliver his employer's children to school.
“Wah already handsome his little boss Pak Udin,” praise Pak Udin when he saw Ashraf who just came out of the house.
Ashraf timidly hid his face in his Grandpa's stomach.
“Kok even shy cat like that?” asked Mr. Udin to tease Ashraf.
Ashraf only smiled shyly at Mr. Udin's temptation to him.
“Cake!” ask Ashraf to get in the car.
It was not only Arumi and Herwan who took Ashraf to school. One of the bodyguards hired by Abraham also took part to ensure the little boy was safe from those who had malicious intentions to him.
“Come, Mr. Udin. We're leaving now!” herwan Pinta.
Mr. Udin agreed and rushed to Ashraf's school.
On his way to school, Ashraf decided to sing a children's song.
Arumi also sang with her voice as it was.
When they were stopped at the red light, Ashraf shouted as loudly as possible when he saw the woman who resembled his mother passing right in front of him.
“Mother! Mother!” ashraf called his mother and tried to get out of the car. However, it was immediately prevented by Arumi.
“Ashraf, what do you want?” asked Arumi in surprise.
“Nek, there was Mommy there. Come on Nek chase Mommy!” pinta Ashraf while tugging Arumi's hand to immediately accompany him down to pursue the woman he thought was his mother.
Ashraf cried and shouted in the car. However, when the lights were green, the car rushed towards Ashraf's school.
“Huhu... Huhuhuhu.” Ashraf kept crying and kept calling his mother.
Others, however, did not believe what Ashraf had said.
Even if it was Asyila, it was very unlikely and if it was true why Asyila did not come home to see her family.
“Ashraf must have seen wrong,” said Arumi while removing Ashraf's tears that continued to flow.
“That, Mother. But, Mommy does not wear a veil,” explained Ashraf.
“It's clear it's not Mother Asyila, Ashraf. Mother Asyila could not possibly not wear her veil,” replied Arumi who was already convinced that what Ashraf saw was not her only daughter.
Ashraf who was crying hysterically, slowly stopped his tears and hugged his Grandmother tightly.
“Already, it's okay. Ashraf can not cry, soon we arrive,” said Arumi who had tried to hold back her tears to see the sadness and longing of Ashraf who was very deep on his beloved Mother.
“Nek, when will Mother come home? Why did Mother long go?” asked Ashraf who did not know how many times he asked and continued to ask when his mother could go home to see him.
Arumi tries to divert Ashraf's questions by pretending to cough.
“Uhuk... Uhuk...”
“Grandfather, ask for drinking water for Grandma!” pinta Ashraf is very sensitive to the situation of his grandmother.
Herwan agreed and handed him a bottle of water to drink by his wife.
“Grandmother is sick?” asked Ashraf so attentive to Arumi's health condition.
“Grandmother later do not forget to take medicine yes,” said Ashraf.
That's how they distract and question Ashraf who always asks about his mother.
However, no matter when they continue to lie about the existence of Asyila who has drowned in the open sea.
They arrived at the school gate of Abraham. As usual, Mr. Udin, Herwan and Arumi will return home. While the bodyguards Abraham hired would wait and guard Ashraf until they came home.
“Learn ya good dear,” said Arumi.
Ashraf assented excitedly and some of his friends had already come to him to enter the classroom.
“Grandpa, Grandma. Ashraf school first yes, Assalamu'alaikum.”
“Wa’alaikumsalam, don't be naughty yes dear. Learn yes smart,” reply Arumi.
Ashraf waved his hand and entered the classroom together with his friend.
“Please take care of our grandchildren! If there is something suspicious, just catch it,” said Herwan.
“Ready,” reply si bodyguard.
At first, the teachers as well as the other children, felt strange about the arrival of the bodyguard.
However, everything went well when Abraham came to explain to the teachers with the presence of the bodyguard as a guard for his baby, Ashraf.
They also understand this and school activities run as usual.
On the way home to Abraham Mahesa's residence, Asyila's parents looked very sad.
When they remember Ashraf, they accidentally see a woman who looks like their daughter.
“The love of Ashraf, for not seeing our daughter for a long time, Ashraf hallucinated thinking the woman he saw was our daughter. O Allah, if Asyila was alive she would have come to see us,” Arumi said while leaning her head on her husband's shoulder.
Mr. Udin, who knew about Ashila's death, still could not believe it.
She knew that Asyila was a very good woman, both her speech and all that was in Asyila there was no such thing as minus.
Arumi continued to cry while talking about their daughter. Herwan chose to be a good listener for his wife.
That was all Herwan could do to keep his wife stable.
“Mas, how about we hire people to find our daughter at sea?” ask Arumi.
Herwan quickly rejected his wife's wishes. It's nothing, Herwan doesn't want them to continue scraping that very sore wound.
“No need, it will be very painful if the result is the same as yesterday. Enough we send Do'a every day so that Asyila's spirit is calm there,” Herwan replied.
“But...”.
“Please do not discuss this issue again, let alone discuss it in front of Nak Abraham.
Until this moment, Nak Abraham is still very hit and vent it by capturing the bad guys. As long as I know, the work of Son Abraham is very dangerous and very dangerous for his life. Mas do not want the mind of Nak Abraham to multiply and forget our two grandchildren who are still very small,” said Herwan.
Arumi bowed in embarrassment, she shouldn't have said that. Losing her daughter, she could not think clearly.
A few hours later.
Ashraf was playing with his friend on the playing field, the atmosphere of the little boy was very happy when his friends invited him to play and joke.
“Ashraf!”
Out of nowhere, Ashraf caught the voice of a woman who had just called him. The little boy rushed down from his swing and turned his head around.
“Ashraf!” The call was once again heard and very clear, to the point that one of Ashraf's friends said that he heard a woman calling him.
Ashraf ran small and suddenly he was surprised to see a female figure standing before him with a big smile towards him.
Ashraf was silent for a moment with a astonished look.
“Mother?” ask Ashraf to make sure.
The woman standing before him at this moment could be said to be almost similar to his Mother. However, he did not wear the hijab and his body was slightly contained.
“Ssuuttt, don't be hard. Later the gentlemen hear us,” said the woman while pointing towards the bodyguard who was standing while turning his back to them.
Ashraf gave a small nod and suddenly the bell rang again, forcing Ashraf into the classroom to continue his studies.
“Come in, I'll wait for you here,” he said.
Ashraf smiled widely and rushed into the classroom to continue his studies.
