After the Rain

A Strange Proposal

The night is getting late. However, Daniar was still unable to close both of his eyes. The star's request, which was so heartbreaking, had disturbed Daniar's mind.

There were too many things that made the child feel hurt. Maybe because it's also the Star asking Daniar to move. So that he could forget all the bitter things he had been through.

Daniar looked at his sleeping daughter. His hand stretched out to touch the forehead of the Star.

"Thank God, the heat has gone down" muttered Daniar.

When Daniar was about to get out of his bed. The door of the room suddenly opened slowly. Ms. Salma poked her head from behind the door.

"Ni, can we talk for a second?" pinta Bu Salma, slow down.

Daniar smile. "All right, Mom."

A second later, Daniar stepped out of the room. Daniar and Ms. Salma walked hand in hand to the living room. They also sit side by side.

A few seconds later, Ms. Salma changed her sitting position. He raised both his legs and sat cross-legged facing Daniar.

"Do you know, Ni. Hearing the Star's request this afternoon, I thought that maybe it's time we move out of this house" Ms. Salma said.

"I mean Mom?" ask Daniar, astonished.

"Honestly, I'm afraid that after the incident, the mental star will be disturbed. He believed that his father would never marry again. He always kept his father's promise. I'm sure, after knowing his father was about to get married, he must be disappointed, Ni," said Ms. Salma.

Daniar is silent. He still wanted to hear his mother's words further.

"Mother will not be able to see the joy of the Star taken away just because she is still tied to the memories of her father. In this house, of course, many memories that will always remember the stars. Therefore, we'd better move quickly, Ni. By the Stars and also for your future" continued Ms. Salma.

Daniar sighed. "Yes, Mom. Niar also had a chance to think like that," said Daniar.

"alright. If you agree, tomorrow I'll pay for the house DP my friend showed me. The house is small, but it is quite comfortable for us to live in" said Ms. Salma.

"How good is Mom. Whatever Mom's decision, Niar will follow. Most importantly, Stars can forget all these bad events" Daniar concluded.

Time keeps passing. With the help of his friend, finally Miss Salma get a rented house that is quite comfortable. She also brought her two children to move. While the stars, after being declared healthy. The star asked to change schools.

"But why, son? Isn't going to school there your dream?" asked Daniar who was surprised when Bintang whined he wanted to change schools.

"That's not Bibin's dream, Bun, but dad's dream. And now, Bibin wants to be Bibin himself. I don't care about Bibin's feelings. So, what Bibin cares about the father's feelings for," replied the cold Star.

Daniar could only sigh at the determined attitude of the Star wanting to change schools.

"Alright, tomorrow after Mother comes home from school, Mother will meet your principal and convey your desire to move," concluded Daniar.

A moment later, Daniar came out of his daughter's room. Not wanting to disappoint his son, Daniar finally followed the wishes of the Stars.

Forgive Bibin, Bun. Bibin just does not want to burden the mother with expensive school fees. Bibin knew, once you get married, things will definitely not be the same again. Bibin must begin to get used to living a simpler, inner Star while staring at the back of his mother who is beginning to disappear behind the door.

Since he knew that his father had a future wife. The star cut off all access to remember it. Secretly, he had blocked his father's mobile number on Daniar's HP. Stars do not want to be weak just because of the past. Therefore, he needs a new thing, a new place for his new life

"What?!"

Everyone was so shocked by Daniel's words that he didn't seem to mess around.

"Wait for Daniel. It's not that I'm not happy with Daniel's good intentions. However, the name of the marriage can not be grapak-grepek like this. Everything needs a process, and every process takes time. After all, getting married is not just about reciting the ijab qobul only. However, there are many requirements that you must prepare. Is it true that Daniel's son has prepared the files needed as a condition of marriage?" ask Ms. Salma full of investigation.

"Alhamdulillah, already ma'am. Daniel has made NA, has prepared dowry too. For delivery, Mother and Nisa do not have to worry.
