Grace of Love

Hot Dish

Night covered in fog makes the air increasingly cold piercing the sanubari, how many traders still and then search for the remains of the rhizki that they might still be able to get.

“Can't Nindi eat a can? Looks good.” Imagine the taste until saliva meets the mouthful cavity of Nindi.

“Bby, briefly Brother ask Pak Bagas to stop.” Ivar grabbed a cell phone to contact Bagas who was sitting at the security guard post.

“Pak Bagas...” Ivar was stunned to hear Nindi's scream. “Please buy a can of yes Sir.” Bagas gave his thumbs up to the balcony of the room where Nindi was standing with Ivar. Bagas immediately ran out.

“Your voice can wound Nin.” Laughing feels funny.

“Hehehe....Later brother will hunt go the seller.” Answer with a spoiled voice. Ivar hugged the warmly tiny body of Nindi who was standing in front of him.

At first Nindi only noticed Bagas and the security guards ate a can from the balcony, seeing them eat while joking Nindi so wanted to eat a can. Moreover, seeing a puff of smoke from a bowl that must be very good to eat during cold weather like now.

“Bagas just wait there.” The screams of Nindi who now did not make Ivar shocked. He just smiled a little. Walk away from Ivar.

“Where are you?” Ivar asked confusedly.

“You ate a can of Brother.” Ivar frowned. “Nindi wants to eat at the guard post with bagas and others, definitely exciting.” His face looks very cheerful.

“Nin. Here only, outside cold.” Nindi pouted, the shadow eating a can while croaking was extinct already.

“Gas, take a ride on his can.” Ivar's orders made Bagas run immediately. Shouting mimicked Nindi.

Tok...

“Include Gas.” Ivar who is now sitting on the sofa of his room with Nindi.

Bagas entered carrying a tray, a hot can like Nindi's request is ready to serve. Slowly Nindi ate a can that looked very good. Just a few mouthfuls had already put the spoon back.

“Why? Not good dear?” Nindi. “Then why not spend?” Tanya Ivar who plays her phone but keeps an eye on Nindi.

“I don't taste.” Ivar occupied himself. Ivar tasted, and it tasted pretty good. “Abang just spend.” I want to protest but not dare.

“Abang would not want to eat a can of Nin, Nindi who had asked to eat a can until shouted loudly so.” Nindi Tersipu was embarrassed to remember her scream earlier. Nindi just shook her head.

“You sleep aja.” Ivar seemed to understand, starting to strangely request Nindi lately. Nindi had only walked a few steps, Ivar stood up.

“Let's go down...” Nindi's eyes sparkled. “Wear a thick jacket.” In spirit snatched his pink jacket. “Thank you Nin?” His name represents his current feelings.

Edwin who saw Ivar go down with Nindi lowered his reading glasses.

“Where are these nights Nak?” Ask in a soft tone.

“Nindi wants to eat a can in the guard post.” His daughter-in-law just smiled withstanding embarrassment. Ivar understood Edwin's sharp gaze. “Nindi already wear thick jacket Pah, just relax.” Nodding and continuing to read the newspaper.

Seeing Ivar and Nindi walking towards the post, all stood respectfully welcoming their arrival. Nindi smiled looking at the serious face of Mr. Asep who likes him to be seduced because it is very innocent.

“Let's eat with me, what are you saying? It's so exciting to watch from up there.” Nindi asked, which made Ivar look one by one at the faces of his employees.

Big question marks filled Ivar's head, as Nindi spoke to them like a friend. No one dared to sit.

“Come on Asep, Bagas, Mang Udin, Azam. Continue eating.” Upset Nindi who saw them still standing did not flinch. Ivar gave permission with a movement of his head. Seeing Nindi so happy, Ivar could not dwell.

“We again talkin Azam Non, he already has a girlfriend.”

Cie.cie...cie....

Laughter filled the security guard post that night. Sure enough they were very familiar after Ivar asked permission to see the park on Nindi. At first the silence made Nindi uncomfortable and continued to stare at Ivar, her eyes as if casting Ivar away. And it is so.

Ivar moved away giving them space to be comfortable, but he could not easily blend in like Nindi. Ivar noticed the flowers blooming beautifully in the garden. Occasionally stealing glances at his favorite woman who was gossiping with his loyal employees.

Seeing Nindi smile made her very happy. Perhaps they had been the ones who gave Nindi strength as long as she was not around, Ivar was lucky to have them who were always there when her family was in trouble.

“Already night dear.” Though only 10 minutes Nindi was sitting at the security guard post, for him it was very long. Ivar jealous.

“Iya Brother.” Rise up with the help of Bagas who sat next to him. “Azam spirit well.” Azam just blushed in embarrassment. “That's it, happy working. Rest yes if you are tired.” Take it politely.

“Thank you Young Master.” Shouted Bagas happy. Nindi who saw Ivar smiled curiously. What they discussed.

Tomorrow I give you a bonus for making my wife happy tonight.

The content of the message is like being able to lottery in the middle of a cold night but still having to spell hard to complete the task.

“Young Master well, it seems like never a smile. His heart is good as Mr.” Azam said no less happy, he is the newest among others.

“People are rich and different Zam, want to get out how much money is also a lot of money. Alhamdulillah..” Mang Udin chimed in. Remember the school bag at the school supply store the other day. Finally can also buy a bag that looms over it these few days.

“Now wash your face and sleep Yes Nin, quickly Brother accompany to the toilet.” Let him extend a hand. Nindi looks still lazy, stroking her stomach.

“Mau Abang gendong?” Nindi nodded. “You spoiled once dear.” She held her hand around Ivar's neck.

“He remembers it's been a few weeks since Brother was off duty?” Tanya Nindi was curious.

“Nindi bored well see Brother always at home?” The answer hurt itself.

“Not bored Brother, replacing the time Brother once seized from Nindi.” Dipped his face in the chest of Ivar's field.

“Abang did not snatch it dear, so now Brother redeemed it. Do everything Nindi wants while you're unemployed. Hehehe...” Chuckles himself.

“Abang unemployed but still a lot of money.” His account was never absent at the beginning of the month. The monthly ration that Nindi never used a penny because all her needs had been met.

“Nindi use for what dear?” Nindi Busy brushing her teeth. Reply with a wave of hands. “You're not wearing?” Nodding. “Why? You use your own hard-earned money? Huh...” Curious half to die. Ivar had never paid any attention to Nindi's expenses all along.

“This gate is, Nindi use for what?” The answer is done gargling. Nindi herself is confused. “Going to work at the shuttle, snacks outside are also rare. Nindi no time go shopping street Abang.” Obviously while walking back to the room. After shopping paid for Brother Edel.

“But can't be so dear, if you don't use it for what's your brother working so hard for? You have to help Brother spend the income of Brother Nin.” His whine was upset like a child.

“Abang can not, love Nindi just a little. Don't be too big a transfer. Not used either Brother.” Nindi gets excited to tease Ivar who whines at her.

“Nindi...tomorrow you have to shop.” Ivar checks Nindi's account which, if counted, he doesn't use a dime of Ivar's money. “Why is it still intact?”

“Nindi confused what to wear?” Ivar shook his head and finally hugged Nindi. Debate that has no benefit, wastes energy.

“Besok Brother take it to a special place with Hanna.” Ivar wants to avoid Maysarah who will arrive in Jakarta tomorrow. Hugging Ivar made Nindi feel she had the strength to fight Maysarah. It won't be easy, but Ivar will always be there for him.

Nindi who knows Ivar's intentions is relieved, she still can't afford to part with Hanna for whatever reason. Hanna and Nindi bond with each other. Maybe later Nindi should be ready, but not now. Hanna only knows herself as her family, nothing else.

Nindi would slowly open her heart but not now, Hanna would be the victim if it was too sudden like this. Many considerations, many want Nindi to do so that Hanna still feel comfortable.

"Well, I want to take Hanna and Nindi away. Ivar please help Ivar yes Pah, Ivar is afraid that the unwanted things will happen if Ivar does not take Nindi and Hanna away."

"Yes Nak. Papa agrees with your idea, son. Papah will try to talk to her." Edwin did not want any commotion to harm his grandson. In that case only her family would be the victims, Hanna was at the most disadvantage.

Nindi leads Hanna along. Their relationship is now as it was. Nindi no longer hid her shattered feelings. Hanna only knows Nindi changed because of her pregnancy, there is no other reason.

"We're going, huh Pah." After kissing Edwin's hand.

Edwin was still at home hugging Hanna, advising her gently as usual before her granddaughter left the house.

"Opah sarangheyo." Her little fingers formed love. He nodded at Edwin with a happy smile.

Hanna is currently enjoying watching Korean TV shows. Funny said. He loves to imitate what he hears and sees. They walk hand in hand.

“Hanna His eyes narrowed, his brain recalling who the woman he now saw was standing in front of him. Hanna looked at Nindi who was grasping at her hearing tightly, a slight pain in Hanna's hand.

“Nindi, patient darling. Adjust your breath correctly.” Ivar was afraid that Nindi would lose her sanity like she did yesterday. He stared at Ivar full of sadness, tears he could no longer bear.

“Nindi....Mother comes Nin. Hanna...” Hanna retreated behind Nindi. He was not used to being hugged by strangers he did not know. Hanna instead looked at the face of the woman who was so similar to her Mother. “Do not fear dear... It's Ne...”.

“Wait!!” His speech cuts off Maysarah's words. “Please don't say anything now, he will be confused.” Pinta Ivar gently, she looked at Hanna full of pity.

“What is this guest we are waiting for?” Ask Edwin who just showed up. “Please enter.” Edwin signals Ivar to take Nindi and Hanna away.

Maysarah and Ratih sat in the living room.

“Sorry because I was in a hurry Sir. I just don't want to miss my chance to fix everything.” Starting to sob, he looked very sincere.

“Let's talk from heart to heart like a parent. I know how you feel right now.” Edwin nodded in understanding of Maysarah's situation.

He's also an old man. He knows exactly how parents feel when it comes to their children.
