Between Maghrib and Isya

Miss Daddy

Actually I'm hard to get into the pesantren. I want to go to a regular public school. However, this was my father's last request. I just want you to be calm and happy there. Anyway this is the best for me.

After my mother told Umi Henni who was there to be registered, I would not want to have to go to boarding school.

"Darling... Next week you leave for Yogyakarta, because you will enter the boarding school", said my mother

"Yes ma", say me with a little sluggish

"Ma... Tomorrow Nara wants to pilgrimage to the grave of father ya ma", continued me

"Do you want me to?", asked my mother

"No need to ma. Nara herself", obviously I am

"OK"

Without saying much more, I went back to my room. After my father died, I spent more time in my room. I feel calm in my room. I was so lazy to leave the house.

"Assalamu'alaikum. Dad, Nara's coming", I said while I was next to my father's grave

"Uuhh why is it dirty father's grave, let Nara clean first yes well", continued me

While cleaning up my father's tomb, I also read Surah Al-fatihah. After the tomb was clean, I took the yasin in my bag and read it.

I am not very good at reading, but I will try and read as much as I can.

Not to forget also I read a prayer for my father and sprinkled flowers and water so that my grave looks beautiful and fertile.

"Dad... Nara's here. Nara kangen daddy. Good dad is good there?. Nara is lonely there is no father. Nara kangen father's voice. Nara kangen we have breakfast together at the dinner table, rebutan smoothies, Nara kangen everything. Why didn't you say goodbye to Nara before you left?. Forgive Nara for not being able to make my mom and dad happy. Oh yeah well, mama is very strong, Nara knows actually mama also broke her heart when the death of father, but mama still looks strong and strong so that Nara does not follow sad. Mama said Nara must be sincere so that father is happy and calm there. Now Nara is sincere. Nara understood everything. Nara knows everything. Oh yes Nara also wants to tell dad, Nara will realize the dream of father, Nara will enter the boarding school according to father's wishes. Actually Nara wants to enter a regular public school but Nara knows this is the desire of the father, Nara will make it happen so that the father is calm and happy there. Nara also knows, the choice of parents is the best choice for her child. Nara wants the three of us to be together in heaven" my story to dad. Which has no reply to what sound.

"Dad, Nara went home first. Nara will be here again. Poor mom alone at home. Assalamu'alaikum yeah", keep me up

"Assalamu'alaikum ma", greet me entering the house

"Wa'alaikumsalam" answered my mother

"Where? Have you met my dad?", asked my mom

"Udah ma's. Nara wants to wash her face first yes ma", answered I lower my gaze, so that mama does not squirm if I run out crying

"Ok baby, you ate it" said my mom

Tonight, my sense of missing to dad is getting bigger. I recall my memories with my father, seeing videos and photos that were taken. My tears are back to wet my cheeks

"Ayaahhh.", I said slowly.

"Nara's... Not sleeping baby?", asked my mother who arrived just entered my room

"Yet ma", answered me with a slightly hoarse voice because while crying

"Nara why?"

"Nara misses ma's father. Nara is watching a video with dad", I replied

"Uuhhh dear", said my mama while hugging my body tightly

I and my mom broke into tears while watching our video with my dad.

Tonight my mother sleeps in my room to accompany me until morning.

Fathering... I love you so much
