>Ara< school

It's been five months since Ara entered kindergarten school. Ari deliberately speeds Ara to enter school so that Ara does not get bored at home. Because from now on Ari is back busy with his work.

"How has the child, already decorated his letter?" Ask the teacher.

"It's over!" Answer all students.

Today is the day that mother, Ara and the other students are assigned to make a letter from origami paper for their mother. One by one his name was called forward to read his letter. And it was time for Ara's turn.

"Let's Ara read the letter" Ara nodded.

"Mommy, today is mother's day. Ara tau mamah is not the same Ara anymore. But Ara sure must have been horrified by all that Ara said. Mamah, Ara gk can love anything to mama, Ara can only pray to mamah. Ara always wishes mamah so that mamah there is always happy. Mama's heart is like a fairy godmother. Ara very dear to mama. Love you" One tear drop Ara's flowing. But quickly Ara removed it.

"The letter of Ara is good. Mamah Ara must be horrified. Ara should not be sad yes" said the teacher while stroking Ara's hair.

Ari had already told Aisha's death to Ara's teacher. Ari advised to take care of Ara during school and do not let Ara grieve because she remembers her mother. Ara nodded with a smile.

"Dad"

"Jaudah, now Ara is sitting" I don't think it's time for Ara to come home. Ara sits on the school park bench to wait for Ari to pick her up.

"Mom!" The boy hugged his mother.

"Well, how was school, son?"

"Seru mah, it was Laras and temen temen make a letter" the boy hurriedly opened his bag and showed something.

"This is a letter to mamah" Mamah of the child read the letter. Smiling happily at his son.

"Happy mother's day. The barrel is very dear to the same mamah" Then they embrace.

Ara could only be silent watching the intimacy of the mother and child earlier. Eyes warming. There was envy in him. He misses his mother, Aisyah.

"Ade" Suddenly Ari came while carrying a paper bag. Ara quickly neutralized her face. Ara smiled at Ari.

"Well, why long?"

"Sorry papah yes. It was stuck on the street" Ara nodded.

"owh yes, papah has something for Ara" Ari took out something from the paper bag he was carrying earlier.

"Nake?" Ask Ari.

Ara nodded while revealing her row of teeth. Ari smiled happily because Ara could already smile again. Actually Ari had already noticed Ara, Ari saw the gloomy face of Ara when she saw the intimacy of the mother and child earlier. Ari understood, surely Ara missed Aisyah very much.

"Fuck!"

"Hmm?"

"Today's mother's day" Ara said carefully.

"Ara has a letter! Papah read yes"

"Well, who read. It's mother's day, not father's day" Ara's face turned moody.

"You don't exist" murmured Ara very slowly.

"Ara want to give this letter to mama?" Ara nodded in spirit.

"Ara wants!"

"OK, come with papah" Ari carried Ara to her car.

>Cemetery<

After reading the letter, Ara's hand stroked Aisyah's tomb board. Ara tried to hold back her tears from dripping. Because Ara had promised Ari, that Ara should no longer be sad because of Aisha's departure. Ara covered her face with both hands.

Ari turned to Ara, Ari understood why Ara was covering her face. Ari opens Ara's hand for Ara to show her face. Then Ari grabbed Ara's tiny body into her arms. Ara was crying loudly, she could not hold back her tears.

"Pa pah ma - sorryin Ara hiks. Ara is not bi-I promise bu-make no cry hyks hyks" Ari increasingly tightened his embrace.

"No papa. Ara cry if not strong"

Silence Ari tears also flowed. Ari glanced at Aisyah's tomb board.

'did you see baby? Ara is weak without you, so am I. I miss you so much, Ari.

After Ara's cries began to subside, Ari let go of her embrace. Ari wiped away the rest of Ara's tears.

"The sky's getting dark, like it's gonna rain. Before going home, we pray for mama" Ara nodded and crouched down next to Aisyah's grave. His tiny hands were raised to ask God for prayer.
