I'm ending Our Nestapa
Chapter 11
Instead of being touched by the tenderness of her daughter's heart, Mila rudely pushed Nani. For women, what is needed now is money, not just speech attention.
“Go far away. You son of a bitch!”
Nina looked bitterly at her mother. For the umpteenth time, his heart was slashed with the words of his mother that were always painful.
In a short time there were many people swarming. Some people helped and some people also urged the driver to take responsibility.
Avoiding the mass tantrums, the rider was willing to go out. Makes him want to be responsible.
“Mbak, fine ‘kan?” ask the man to Mila.
Mila was still busy cleaning the dust that was stuck in her pants and hands. Although not hit, there are still some parts of the body that blisters and feels quite painful. It's pretty painful if moved. Because when he collapsed onto the asphalt, his elbow and left arm hit the road quite hard.
“How well. You see the blisters. So dirty also ‘kan my pants. Next time I'll take a car in the terminal ati-ati, Bang," said Mila without seeing the man. He tried hard to blow the blisters that felt the most pain. To make the pain feel lighter.
“Mbak I'm sorry. This is not purely my fault. Ma'am is also wrong why run around in the middle of the terminal street like this?"
Mila was surprised to get that answer. Makes him unable to argue anymore.
The man smiled, then made peace. So that there is no revenge between the two.
"Sir, this is no money as an expression of my apology. Hopefully enough to ngobatin the blisters wounds in the clinic.” The man gave three pieces of pink money to Mila.
Looking at the money sheets before him, Mila's annoyance disappeared instantly. And without further ado, Mila immediately snatched the money. He thanked me and smiled widely. His head tried to look up out of curiosity to see the kind-hearted person. However, when he had looked at that face, he was shocked. It turned out that the person who was going to hit him was Zacky, Reva's husband.
“Mas Zacky.” Mila's eyes widened to see the figure of the man named Zacky.
Her best friend's husband gave a friendly smile. Nodding while confirming Mila's greeting. I don't know why Mila's face became red. Shame for nagging him earlier.
“Oh Mbak Mila. I'm sorry, ma'am. I almost hit Madam Mila earlier,” said Zacky with a thick jaw log.
And Mila just nodded. Suddenly his attitude became awkward.
“Om Zacky,” strangles Nina in between those conversations. Directly running closer to the figure who had been good with him all this time. With a feeling of happiness too, Nani also ran behind her brother.
“Wah there are Nina and Nani also here,” welcome Zacky when they are close. Then bend the body to align with the height of the children.
Look at them one by one. His forehead instantly shriveled when he saw their shabby clothes. What are they doing here in such tattered clothes. It immediately raised a question in Zacky's heart.
“Why are you here?” ask Zacky while stroking Nani's head.
Nina's head is down. He really wanted to tell me about what really happened. But when he turned to look at his mother, his mother was looking at him there. The gaze hinted at the prohibition not to talk. Again, Nina was forced to say nothing.
“Why, Nina didn't answer Om's question? What are you guys really doing here? There are many dangers to vehicles. How about you hit later?” Zaki looked at Nina fixedly as he brushed the child's bangs. She knew that Nina was in a very depressed state.
If Om Zacky knew, Nina was silent like this for fear of being tortured by her mother.
“We are playing here, Om,” replied Nina weakly, her head lowered. Forced to lie, in order to save himself also the younger brother.
“Main? Why play here? Danger you know. Many buses and other vehicles pass by.”
Nina's head continued to bow no longer dared to speak. To prevent, his daughter told him, quickly Mila approached and took him home.
“Come, Nina home. I've been sniffing out.”
For the first time Mila took her two children walking. He had to do this so that there would be no more conversation between Nina and Zacky. Three hundred thousand dollars was enough for him to pay extra and have fun.
...*****...
Arriving at Mila's contract, Zacky said hello to Nina and Nani who were busy playing dolls.
“Assalamu’alaikum. Wow it looks like it's exciting?” tease Om Zacky in the door frame.
They knew the owner of the voice. Their heads were compactly looking at the arrival of Om Zacky. Smiles on both lips. Excitedly, they ran to hug the man who had been so good to them all along.
“Hore ... Om Zacky come.”
The two children were hugged and kissed on both cheeks.
“Oya Where's your mother?” ask Om Zacky after being satisfied with them.
“There's inside. Again sleeping because this morning Mother just came home from work.” replied Nina while pointing to the room whose wall was only limited to white plywood. Meanwhile, Nani just followed her brother's movements. “Nina dare not build Mom, Om. Fear scolded.”
“Ya has just arrived. Let your mother rest. What matters is that your mother doesn't papa, does she?”
Nina answered him with a nod of her head.
"Yes Om Zacky, excuse me. Greetings to your mother."
Before Om Zacky left, Nina and Nani took turns kissing the back of her hand. As usual, he also gave Nina a fifty-thousand note.
“This is for you guys buy snacks.”
“Still, Om,” replied Nina while showing her tooth that is toothless one.
After giving money, Om Zacky left. Nina and Nani's sight was fixed seeing her departure.
After Om Zacky goes a long way. Sneakily. Unnoticed. His mother's hands pulled their ears hard from behind.
“Why don't you guys wake up Mom, if Om Zacky comes, huh?”
The earlobe made Nina and Nani grimace in pain. They cry to be released.
“Please freelin, Mom. Our ears hurt,” whine Nina held her mother's hand to let go.
“Jawab first question Mother. Why didn't you wake up when Om Zacky came. Huh?”
“Nina afraid to disturb Mom.”
And Mila was silent at her daughter's answer. The boy seemed to have learned from the events of the past. He once slapped Nina while trying to wake her up. At that time the landlord came to collect the monthly rent.
Remembering the incident, Mila also released the ears of her two children. The countless sickly jewels left red marks on their ears.
Not that there was regret in Mila's heart after remembering the incident, but now she has forcibly seized the money given by Zacky from Nina's grasp.
“Nina, here's the money.”
“Do not, Mom. This is our money. Om Zacky said, this is for Nina's snacks with Nani, Mom,” replied Nina who immediately maintained the money. Both of his palms tightly grasped the sheet that was very valuable to him.
However, Mila always relied on the ferocity of her clasps in seizing everything from her son. It's like a bad word that wins. Nina's small hand was pulled roughly. The money was then forcibly taken from him.
“Ekh Nina! Just so you know. Small children should not hold big money yes.”
His mother always said so. This is the third time, the mother took the money given by Om Zacky. Then Nina's head was torn off and she walked away. Like the past days, Nina could only cry while hugging her twin sister.
