According to the plan of Carnation, before leaving he wanted to buy souvenirs for both parents. Anye went into a clothing store, he bought his father a cocoa shirt complete with a pecin, for his mother he bought a set of clothes. Then Anye went to the fruit market, he bought his father and mother's favorite fruits, namely oranges and sapodilla. After finishing shopping, Anye returned to the boarding house of Bu Ida to prepare while waiting for the arrival of Mr. Edi, Satya's personal driver.
While in the kitchen where the hostel is, the friends of Carnations who are again off work and who get a busy day shift make food for parents Carnations. They made a pickled mango, which happened to be the mango they took from the backyard of Ida's boarding house. Ida's mother also helped them cook the ungkep duck which according to the story Anyelir is one of the favorite foods of his parents. It just so happens that Ida maam himself keeps a few ducks so that the leftover food every day is not wasted. Ms. Ida has considered all the boarding children in her place as her own. Their compactness makes Ida mom feel entertained until the longing for her only child who studied in the neighboring country of Malaysia becomes treated.
Upon returning Carnation from the market he intended to meet Mother Ida and her friends to say goodbye because soon Mr. Edi arrived. But he was struck by the familiar aroma of cooking. He looked for the source of the aroma to the kitchen turned out he saw the food was neatly arranged in each container.
"Wah..mom cook delicious, Anye smelled a delicious aroma that is familiar from the outside. Turns out mom cooked a ungkep duck. And this pickled mango hemmm. What event do you want, Mom?"
"Anye dear.you will go home so we want to bring a little souvenir for your parents. Because at this time we have not paid any more understanding in the old month 😄😄😄 we can not buy something for them. It turns out that Mother invited us to cook this food, according to mother this food is one of your parents' favorite menu. Coincidentally, there are all the ingredients here so we just have to execute the rame-rame so that when you get home from the market everything is finished" said Diah.
"Yes son, I can't bring them anything either. This is all we can do and give to your parents".
"Thank you mom, Anye has been troubling me. This has been very valuable to us, your love is all a gift that is priceless to them".
"Oh yeah Nye, Tina left this for your parents too", Ani handed over an envelope containing a little money. "Last night he forgot to give it to me, so before he left for work he left it to me. And he said a greeting to your parents as well".
Anye accepted their gifts all in amazement. How much attention they all paid to him.
Thank you guys, thank you again mom.....Anye can't repay your kindness. Excuse me first ma'am, Diah, Ani and Rita because Mr. Edi the driver Anye boss is almost there. Anye wants to take the bag first in the room.
"Be careful, son".
"Be careful, Nye" said his friend at the same time.
Carnations also nodded. They brought the food that Anye would bring to the terrace and it turned out that Mr. Edi had been waiting there.
After taking his bag, Anyelir assisted his friends and Mr. Edi put the goods that Anye would bring into the car.
Ahead of the departure of Mr. Edi received a phone call from his Boss, it turns out Satya wanted to talk to Carnations before they left. Mr. Edi handed his cell phone to the Carnation.
"Hallo..ya Sat, what are you talking about? we'll be leaving soon".
"Well Sat, we're leaving first".
Anye waved to Bu ida and her friend before the car drove away from the place.
The journey to the village of Carnation takes about 6 hours. Carnations deliberately did not inform both parents because he wanted to surprise them. In the afternoon their car had entered the hometown of Anyelir. All the residents they passed by looked astonishedly at the incoming car. They wonder who came by driving a luxury car to their village that they have never seen. Anye accidentally did not open the car glass before she arrived. He did not want the residents to think strange about him because he was not ready to explain everything.
"Sir, we stop in front for a second huh. My parents are probably still downstairs, so let me catch up with them first".
Anye then got down from the car walking towards the rice field which is not far from where Mr. Edi stopped his car.
From a distance he saw his parents who were still working downstairs. Feelings of joy and sadness mixed into one in Anye's heart. He was happy to meet the mother Father whom he had missed so much. Sad because they can not be happy until they still have to work hard to make a living.
Anye continued to step her feet in the rice field, she did not care if her feet had to be dirty in the mud. He came closer and could not wait to call his mother and father.
"Dad.....Anye's home".
Those who hear the voice of the child they most long for turn their faces toward the sound. In disbelief in their vision, the two rubbed their eyes to convince themselves that what they saw was not wrong.
Anye immediately ran over to the two without caring about the mud that was dirtying her legs. He hugged his mother and father while crying. Her mother's father was crying too. Anye saw their tired faces, faces that looked increasingly older since she left. Their bodies are getting thinner probably because they miss him too much. Pity and sadness increasingly whack the feeling of Carnations.
"You come home, son, why don't you tell us. So we don't have to work today, we can cook your favorite food" said the mother, not wanting to let go of her embrace.
"Yes, son. If you know you're coming home, you're also sure to catch fish in the river so you can cook good food for you."
"Dad mother need not worry, Anye does not want father and mother tired. That Anye has brought the favorite dishes of father and mother, Anye's friends and the hostess mother where Anye lives who has cooked her. They want to give gifts to mom and dad."
"Then let's go home son, you must be tired after a long trip. While you clean your feet, Mom and Dad will clean up the work tools so we can go home soon.
