Accident
Mang Amo and his wife came while carrying rice baskets and side dishes. Yandri smiled, he fixed the mineral bottle that was on the mat to give it a place. A second later, Mang Amo kept his luggage on the mat. Likewise with the wife who put the tableware there.
"Bareng-bareng Mang, breakfast. Call the others, too" pinta Yandri.
"Aden is the same as his guests first, let us later," said Mang Ate, a worker foreman who will harvest fish.
"Ish, it can't be. Barengan aja Mang, let it be delicious," replied Yandri. "Come, everybody go up first, we have breakfast!" yandri's orders to the workers.
One by one, the workers went up and started to join in for breakfast together. The feeling that was initially reluctant, now began to erode seeing the attitude of Yandri so warm in treating those who in fact only a worker. The workers whispered to each other in praise of Yandri's hospitality.

Towards the dzuhur, the workers had managed to lift all the fish in the pond. The next process is to group the fish according to the type and size. Because the fish that Yandri planted enough produce, eventually this process also takes a long time. Even Grace is bored waiting.
"Yan, Akang go home first. Send the fish home. Can, right?" pinta Rahmat who repeatedly yawned because of saturation and drowsiness.
Yandri sighed for a few seconds. He himself was confused, who would deliver the fish to his brother-in-law's house. However, because Rahmat urged Yandri, Yandri finally could only nod his head.
"Yes, Kang. Yandri will try," he replied.
Grace smiles happily. With the reason that he still has a lot of business, Rahmat finally said goodbye to Yandri and his workers.

Time keeps passing. Azan asar has been reverberating. But her husband did not come home yet. Yandri had to go back to work today. As the time was getting late, Daniar finally decided to contact Yandri to remind his departure schedule.
Repeatedly Daniar contacted Yandri's mobile number. However, only miss veronica answered and said her husband's phone was out of reach.
"Is why isn't Yandri's cell phone active?" daniar murmured that his mother could hear.
"Try calling his wife Mang Amo, Ni. Maybe Yandri's phone is running out of power" Ms Salma said.
"Yes, yes ... why does Niar not think the same bik Zainab," he said.
Daniar back down the contact number on the phone. A moment later, he pressed the name of the Zainab bik on the screen. The phone is connected. For a few minutes, Daniar spoke with the Zainab bik. Seen an annoyed expression on Daniar's face, making Ms. Salma reprimand him as soon as Daniar disconnects the phone.
"What the hell are you, brother? Kok wry so his face," taunted Ms. Salma.
"Ih, Niar is upset with Yandri, Mom. Why also he used fish nganterin to the house of the brother of Aminah all," frowned Daniar.
"Yandri nganterin fish? Know where?" Salma asked again.
"Bik Zainab said. Said kang Yandri nganterin his brother's order fish," replied Daniar.
"Will the fish harvest be done, brother?"
"Therefore, they were hesitant again, but Yandri kang did not even exist."
"Yes already, there are also Amo mang who will be anxious. Haven't, don't have to frown at it. Ugly ah!" Ms. Salma again reprimanded Daniar's attitude.
"Niar kesel's abbot, ma'am. Those who need it, why don't they take it for themselves? Thankful to be loved too, still troubling. It sucks!" grunt Daniar, pissed.
"Ish, don't do it, ah. Not well," said Ms. Salma.
"Hhh ..." Daniar can only sigh. If only I knew what kind of behavior the Yandri kang family, astaghfirullahaladzim, inner Daniar while beristighfar.

Towards the magrib, Yandri had just arrived home. He rushed to the bathroom to clean himself up. After performing the magrib prayer, Yandri went to the kitchen to fry his favorite pufferfish.
"Bun, please get Dad's backpack ready!" yandri shouted from the kitchen.
The recently finished Daniar performed the magrib prayer, scrunched his forehead. Ish, what do you want kang Yandri to tell me to get his backpack? inner Daniar.
"All of Dad's shirts are blue, please put them in, Bun!" Back Yandri gave the order.
Curious, Daniar finally approached Yandri in the kitchen.
"Oh, Mother forgot, huh?" Yandri. "Dad has to leave again tonight. The permission to leave is only a day," continued Yandri.
Daniar shocked. "But it's night, Dad."
"Yes, I know. I don't have a choice, Bun. Instead of later having to reprimand Kamad, you can have a chili on his business," Yandri replied while turning the fried bawal fish on the pan.
"What can't be confirmed to extend the permit period, Dad. Mother is worried that Daddy is leaving for these nights," continued Daniar.
"Actually it can, but it's also complicated business later," replied Yandri.
"Ish, Dad ...."
Daniar started whining. Somehow his heart felt so unselfish when he heard that Yandri was about to return to work tonight.
"Already, Bun. Don't worry so, ah. Just pray that Dad will be safe until the goal," concluded Yandri.
Daniar's body felt weak to hear her husband's words.
Of course Mommy always prays for Dad's safety. However, which wife will not feel worried when she finds out her husband is traveling at night, Well, Inner Daniar.

Yandri's stubborn nature eventually forced Daniar to surrender. With an anxious look, Daniar led Yandri to the front fence of his house. Although the time has shown at 8 pm, Yandri desperate to leave also to return to work.
"Be careful on the road, Dad. If you sleep, pull over first. Don't push yourself too hard to drive" Daniar said.
"Yes, dear Mother," replied Yandri. "Oh yes, rice timbel that made the father of the mosque guard, do not forget, right?" tanyakanya.
"No, Dad. It's been combined really, the same package that makes Dad eat later," said Daniar.
"Yes already, thanks Bun. Then, I'll go first."
Daniar nodded. "Don't forget the news of every father's rest, yes," Daniar said.
Yandri smiled, "Okay," she replied. A moment later, Yandri drove his vehicle towards the main road.
Daniar is back in the house. He went straight to the room to rest. For some reason, her heart felt heavy when she let go of her husband to jihad. It wasn't usually like this, but now .. the anxiety was mounting in his chest.
Tired of feeling deep anxiety, Daniar finally fell asleep as well. I don't know how long Daniar slept. When he woke up, he picked up his cell phone lying on the nightstand. Daniar opened some incoming messages on his smart thing. Some had messages from some of the students' parents, and some from friends. However, what Daniar was looking for was a message from her husband.
Daniar opens the photo that Yandri sent. Yandri was eating with an old man wearing a white peci.
According to Yandri's confession, the old man was from Manonjaya area. One of the districts located in Tasikmalaya regency. He was a traveling toy salesman who slept at the mosque every night because he didn't have enough money to contract a house.
Daniar also smiled at the happy photo of the old man. Suddenly, he remembered his dead father. Daniar himself is proud to have a husband who has a high sense of empathy.
Until Daniar saw the best time in the photo. Daniar started to link his eyebrows together.
This photo was sent by Yandri at 00:13. That is, the next hour, kang Yandri should have arrived at his workplace, the inner Daniar.
Daniar saw the time on his phone screen.
At 04:00, but why hasn't kang Yandri sent the next message yet? Usually when he arrives, he will tell. Daniar is back in his heart.
Out of curiosity, Daniar finally called Yandri's number. For a while, the phone connection was not picked up. Daniar is getting restless. However, he was not desperate. Daniar called her husband's phone number.
"Hallo! Dad, why haven't you told me too? Has the Shah arrived?" cecar Daniar as soon as the phone is connected.
"Sorry, who is this?" ask someone on the other end of the phone.
Daniar scrunched his forehead when he did not recognize the voice of the person answering his phone. Anxiety began to approach Daniar.
"W-who are you? Why is my husband's phone in your hands?" ask Daniar, stammering.
"Sorry, Mom. Mother's husband had an accident."
"What?!"
