Episode 53

Not felt already early December 2007, Datin just finished shower in the morning when the HP rang. Yasmin's voice from across there:

“ Mother, when the mother to Semarang again, Yasmin has long not vacation together again. Bimo when is the holiday bu?”

“ Hello dear, how are you? How's your lesson, no problem, right? Said Yasmin wanted to read a poem about mother's day at school?”

“ Yes mother, how do you know? Yasmin won the poetry contest, continuing to perform the school ceremony towards the end of the year. Can you come later when Yasmin is performing? It was held on Monday, December 17, before receiving the report. Yasmin Tuesday 18th received the report and Wednesday 19th began semester break, and just entered on January 3rd, 2008 bu.”

“ I know dong, Yasmin son mom is pinter, there is always a report to mom. Here's how I'll try to be on stage, but go straight home Semarang again, because Bimo Tuesday also received a report. Papa how is Ias?”

“ Papa has been home a month a lot of nights, must speed to finish the job first, we will want the end of the year to Australia, Mother Bimo together right?”

Datin shocked, there was a planing event abroad why Judis did not get word, usually far away the day was excited. While Datin certainly can not come because of the handover of Manding house keys.

It's too bad that this sudden surprise is how he can come along. It's a real shocking surprise, and it's very imprecise.

“ Yes dear, I do not know the event yet, I can't seem to love, there is an event in Yogya. Ok tomorrow we talk if mom is already in Semarang yes.”

Why doesn't Judis know me? Some of the final phone calls are just short as necessary. It looks very busy indeed, and has never stopped by again when going to Jakarta. Busy what yes...Batin Datin, he only realized because of his busyness so late this is like lost communication with Judis.

Then he tried calling Judis, once.

SMS, BBM.

Monday morning on December 17, 2007, at exactly 07.30 Garuda aircraft carrying Datin had landed at airport A. Yani Semarang's. He took a taxi to Yasmin's school. He forgot to tell Carla, and Carla didn't tell Datin either.

Until the school is still at 8 am, but the parents of students are already at a gathering in the hall where the event is held.

Yasmin saw Datin running away and hugging her. Datin sees Carla getting out of the car, then approaches her.

“ Tin I picked you up at the airport, but apparently you took a taxi here. I forgot to know you, and Yasmin just told me this morning that you wanted to come. Call you haven't activated since you got off the plane?” said Carla

“ Yes ampuuuun, yes forgot. Sorry..maaf.”

“ It's 9 o'clock the event starts, let's find a seat first. That's amazing Yasmin, making her mother's day poem in aaaaam. It was meant for my mother he said. Champion one he is. Ich Tin, goosebumps me, Yasmin grows up to be a very sensitive person, which she writes is her heart. Little boy, new class 3 SD, try to see the poem later........for you it.”.

The event started at 9 o'clock right, started with a few remarks, then a student mars choir, a new poetry reading. Starting from champion 3, champion 2, then new champion I, Yasmin Yudistira.

Yasmin advanced forward, she saw Datin waving her hand while throwing a kiss away, making her stride even more steady. Yasmin gave the prologue:

“ This poem I dedicate to my mother, Sri Rudatin, who has always been there for me.” Yasmin said with a smile on her face to Datin.

Applause rumbled, Yasmin began to recite her poem:

My world was suddenly dark.

The sun seemed reluctant to crack.

The days I spent lamenting….. In the darkness I tried to creep.

In the midst of my despair….. A small dot of light came through my dark world……

The light grew bigger, came closer, and grabbed me….. The light illuminated my path, guided me, warmed me.

I want to know who the light is

That light is my mother's….. My mother never gave birth to me…. Stay away from me.

However…………………

His guidance, his warmth, his affection, and his love.

Moms……….. Thank you for always being there for me. Ilove you.

The applause was unusually thunderous, because the only poem intended was not for his biological mother but for someone who took the role of mother in the heart of the child.

Datin speechles, the tears can no longer be held, he sobbed. Carla by melting the tears tried to calm Datin's sob. Datin did not have the power to rise to the front to receive flowers from Yasmin. So that the teacher who guided Yasmin approached Datin. He hugged and kissed Yasmin the little angel. This scene was followed by dozens of pairs of eyes who attended the event full of days.

Finished the event, about half twelve noon. The plane that will take Datin to Jakarta will leave at 15:30. Datin with Carla, Yasmin and Keisya finally had lunch at a restaurant near the airport, while chatting as much as possible.

“ Carla, I don't think you know if you haven't talked to Yasmin's father in a long time. I just realized it's the end of the year. My phone rarely responds. Even listen to the end of the year in Australia.” Datin.

“ Oh...so, lha this where his papa Ias kok not present at Ias?” event ask Datin wonder.” I was curious, was Yudis when to attend Yasmin's events? It's not fair for this kid!”

“ These few months mas Yudis busy puol, and it seems a bit stressful or a lot of burden.” Expose Carla heart.

“ What's the problem huh?”

“ Not clear, mas Seno who might know. Oh yea…….Manding House is over? That said Mr. Gatot one of our contractors can info his men if bu Datin has appointed interior designer to fill his villa, very cool he said!” carla said that she was distorting the conversation, because she did not understand the Judis matter.

“ Ah so, I wish you good luck! Who wants to hold who there?”

“ I don't know. There used to be a Japanese, a partner in Kingu Ebi, but do not know again later.”

“ I ask for pictures of the picnic later, I want to join, but I can not because there is a handover of house keys and land purchase agreement for our main storehouse in Bantul.” Datin.

Alhamdulillah Datin can not join, it was not possible to know Datin the same mas Judis, eee.malah Yasmin leaking. Actually, Males also to Darwin, if there is Datin, there can be enough friends if you want to shop. Inner Carla.

Before boarding, before entering the Terminal Datin farewell to Yasmin :

“ Honey, if you are to Australia, you do not forget to pray five times and mendo’a mama. Mother this time can not join you because there is a job in Yogya. Yasmin is always close to papa huh! Take care of papa who is tired because of his work, so that he is tired if near Yasmin who is dear papa.”

“ Why don't you come? Not sure if there's no mom and Bimo. What's Yasmin doing there?!” Yasmin had started to lose her mood and was about to cry. The shadow of a fun holiday is becoming big.

Carla was already beginning to worry that a strike would have Judis wrathful.

“ Lho Yasmin?...didn't hear what mom said? Papa needs Yasmin, take care of papa who is a lot of work, tired, need people he loves is near him. After there anytime if there is a holiday, mom and Bimo can play right? Take care of papa this time, baby. Later in the new year we talk through skype, so mom can also see Yasmin again…. Ok?? Datin said while kissing Yasmin's cheek, and then went inside.

Carla released Datin's departure with a feeling of emptiness, sadness, like having to take off her next hand. During this time they were both compact shoulder to shoulder Yasmin's affairs. Although Carla did not know the exact cause, she did know that Judis made the decision to stay away from Datin. Seno does not want to tell Carla the reason, because Carla is very close to Datin. If the reason is already exposed to the snares of the bohai Minati. Not worthied at all.

Yasmin called Bimo right back, had a long chat. When his mother arrived home, Bimo immediately rained the question:

“ Ma'am he said Ias want to go to Australia yes, why don't we go with ma'am? I want to go together with playing. Why are we in Yogya mulu bu? I'm bored!” said Bimo.

Wah the enemy guerrilla guerrilla guerrilla child is bothered too, dikasi understanding does not make sense to them, but try me to talk to this genius, supposedly sijenius reason more mature than his age. Thought Datin.

“ Bimo, mom just came home, this is still tired, mom wants to take a shower first, then we eat junk food under yuk!” persuade Datin while presenting a paper like a charter, inscribed with his poem Yasmin the first champion, who would later be framed, and carded flowers from Yasmin in a vase.

“ Nice open the flowers, and this is what?” ask Bimo

“ Mbak Ias champion one make poetry in order mother's day at school, this is intended for mothers. Good yes.........?” said Datin.

“ Ich, mbak Ias pinter ya bu?”

After taking a bath, at about eight o'clock in the evening Datin and Bimo went down to Kem-chick to eat a burger. It was night time, but it was Bimo's favorite, so Bimo did not eat at home waiting for the burger Datin promised.

“ Nih Bim. I didn't bring any of those souvenirs.”

“ This Bimo really likes bu.”

Datin smiled and started the story: “ Bimo, papa Ias was there work in Australia, actually not only vacation, but papa Ias there work, because Ias mbak holiday then all brought.”

“ Mbak Ias same who will be there if papa Ias work.” Ask Bimo.

“ Mbak Ias it his duty to accompany papa Ias, if there is beside a loved one, tired papa Ias quickly lost. Like mother, if tired in the office, continue to meet Bimo mother's son who is gantheng and pinter, tired mother immediately disappeared. If it's left papa Ias, there's aunty Carla and Keisya who accompany.” Datin. But apparently this explanation contains a gap, which Bimo then used:

“ If so we can also play accompany mbak Ias and mbak Keisya if it fits papa Ias work right bu?”

Wah apparently wrong entrance I said, kesandung and ambyar Bengkul mami! Inner

“ Lha continue....yg accompany working mother in Yogya who?, if mother's beloved go. I have a big job at Yogya Bim, the future of the people we work with. How's Bim? Bimo will ninggalin mom in Yogya alone?”

Bimo was silent, he was sad not to be able to swallow his burger, but he would still accompany his mother wherever her mother decided. Bimo can already manage his emotions.

“ I'm with mom. But later in Yogya also play right bu?”

“ Yes definitely! Bimo will also be happy there will be a surprise, we do not nginep in Concat, but in Manding's new home, you can swim there! Ok no Bim?” said Datin……

“ Waaaaa.....bener mom? new home nginep? Is there a swimming pool? Aseeeeeeeeek ........!!”

Beres, no loss pay the burger, mission succeeded!! Datin's heart is pleased.
