Final Letter

The Son of STS2

" Kid, tomorrow-tomorrow mother promises will not be late again to pick you up, mother does not feel good to trouble others first enter school anyway" said Arumi while stroking Rafa's hair.

"They are good ko Bu, I like to be here let alone there is a son's father" said the innocent son who made Arumi wrinkle his forehead because of the name Rafa, who called others father.

"Rafa, who's calling you? Don't carelessly call others dads, fear they don't like being called that."

"Say Arka, Rafa can call his father by the same call"

"But still can't raf.."

"May ko Aunty be okay,Rafa can call my father father father" said Arka chimed in Arumi's speech.

Arumi is surprised by the arrival of a child of Rafa's age and an adult male who can be sure is his father. Since when were they there? Arumi immediately stood up and slightly turned to Rafa to ask who they were.

"That's Arka Rafa Bu's friend and next to him is Son's father"

Arumi nodded her head.

"Good afternoon Auntie, introduce me Arka and this is my father" said Arka introduced herself and also her father

"Good afternoon Arka, Pak Putra. Introduce me is Arumi the mother of Rafa"

The son just nodded and remained standing in his position.

"Before I want to say thank you, because the father has invited my son to come with the father, because of my negligence who was late to pick up Rafa" said Arumi regretfully.

"It doesn't really matter to me, because I'm often late to pick up my child. But at least get someone to take care of her while at school like a nanny or someone nearby. Today may be the fate of your child a little lucky because my son advised him to come, I can not guarantee tomorrow-tomorrow. I hope you pay more attention to your child again" said the circus son makes Arumi and the two children a little surprised especially Arumi and Rafa.

Arumi was saddened to hear the words of the Son. He does not know what his struggle to survive is like, it is easy for him to hire others, but for Arumi of course not.

While Arka was embarrassed by the father's words, how could the father say not to wear it with surfing without taking care of the feelings of others.

"I'm sorry sir. I promise that nothing like this will ever happen again, and I will give my son the understanding to no longer trouble others. Once again thank you sir, son Arka. We're going home" Arumi said, leaving both.

After the departure of the two, Arka returned lonely, and regretted the words his father had spoken.

"Why are my words so wise in hurting others. Just now I was happy to make a new friend, but dad had ruined it" Arka said without looking at the interlocutor.

"Dad doesn't mean to be so childish, father just doesn't like it when he sees a parent abandoning his child unattended.."

"Why father can conclude like that, it could be that his mother is busy or there are other obstacles. What if Rafa doesn't want to be friends with me anymore?" said Arka makes the son go wrong

"I'm sorry, dear father. What do you have to do to fix everything?" The son tried to persuade his son, because he always tried to make the child happy just his puppet.

Arka seemed to think, and before long she found an idea to fix everything.

"Alright, I'll forgive father's attitude today, but there's a condition"

The son scrunched his forehead.

"What terms, dear?"

"Hmmhh, we have to apologize directly to Rafa and his mother. Tomorrow take the time of father, we have to come directly to Rafa's house" said Arka made the son a little surprised. He felt he had done nothing wrong, he just said what he thought was right.

"But son, does it have to be like that?" sahut son of doubt

"Yes dad. If you don't want it, it's okay, I don't care, I'm not being picked up by my dad, but there's still a driver and ayu babak who look after me" Arka's threat that makes the son can not dwell, because from the beginning he was trying to take care of his own child despite still relying on others.

"Well, let's go to your friend's house, but now you promise me you won't be angry anymore"

***

Elsewhere Rafa and Arumi have arrived at his house, after cleaning up Arumi immediately prepares a meal for Rafa and Aldi.

"Mom don't go back to mom's work?" rafa asked carefully, because she knew her mother was upset.

Arumi just shook her head, she was afraid of talking too much and hurt Rafa. However this is not Rafa's fault, but the words of the man who is the father of Rafa's friend are painful.

"Eat" said Arumi briefly

"Rafa has eaten Ma at Arka's house" Rafa said shortly after Arumi stopped his movement to pour rice into Rafa's plate and left the dining table.

Rafa is surprised to find the attitude of the mother, He will try to apologize so that everything returns to the way it was.

Rafa knocked on Arumi's door many times, even his bated cries could no longer be contained. When Rafa is knocking on Arumi's door, Aldi just returned from school.

"Why you boy?" ask Aldi with his favorite call

"Uncle, mom seems angry with Rafa" said Rafa complaining

"What did you do wrong?" ask Aldi

Rafa shook his head.

"You're how, there's no way your mother's suddenly angry just because of a trivial matter"

"I just went with my schoolmate to his house, because my mother was late to pick me up" Rafa recounted the events that he thought were the cause of Arumi's anger.

Aldi was astonished, how could Sangkaka be angry just because of such a thing.

"Are you sure just because of that?" ask Aldi back

"Yes uncle"

While Arumi was holding back her tears hearing the conversation between Rafa and Aldi.

"I'm sorry Rafa's mom, you're not wrong. Mother is just too tired with everything, even both hands and mother's trust to take care of yourself is not easy. "

"Yes, let your mother be a little calmer, and we'll talk together. Uncle will clean himself first, uncle's body stinks of sweat. You do not sit on the floor like this, sit on the sofa" said Aldi while pointing right to sit not far from the room of the brother.

"Good uncle"

"Smart kid"

When Azan magrib reverberated, Arumi came out of his room,the first thing he saw was Rafa shortly Aldi out of his room in full outfit like Koko and black material pants over his ankles.

Seeing the face of the brother who was a little swollen, eventually Aldi prefers to invite Rafa to go to the mosque.

"Boy, did we go to the mosque in front of the complex you want? home we buy your favorite kebab" invite Aldi to his nephew to avoid awkwardness.

Rafa refuses, but he is finally ready.

Both are now finished performing Maghrib prayer, when Aldi and Rafa are using their head sounds someone calling one of them.

"You pray here?" .
