I'm ending Our Nestapa
Chapter 31
Several types of food have been served on the oval-shaped glass dining table. How happy Nina and Nani who just this time saw a lot of good food presented in plain sight. Making eyeballs both do not stop exploring which foods they like.
“Come Nina and Nani want to eat what stay choose,” bargain Granny. He sat down near his two grandchildren.
However, the twins did not answer. They were waiting for his mother's orders. Afraid that her mother would assume it was wrong for Nina to go ahead. Because at that time Madam Mila once said with her judes, “Kalo you guys are given food, you should give me first.”
Pressure after pressure apparently gave a deep trauma to their souls. Although the mother has regretted her actions but the shadow of fear in the past still imprints on the children's memory.
Seeing his two grandchildren who did not immediately take food, their grandmother finally intervened to take rice and obey the wishes of which side dish they wanted. Ranita's mother knew that her two grandchildren were afraid of her mother.
“Nina wants what side dish? Fried chicken?”
Ranita's mother can immediately know what her granddaughter wants because when she was new to the dining table, Nina's gaze was first fixed on a few chicken thighs on the plate. Fried chicken that seems other than fried chicken that is often bought by Aunt Reva from stalls. The color looks shiny. With hesitation, the boy nodded.
“Don't be afraid of Nina. If you want this fried chicken just nod,”, said Ms. Ranita while glancing at her daughter who immediately lowered her head.
“If Nani asks what?” Nani's turn to be offered. However, he shook his head. After being enthusiastic to see the number of good foods, now I don't know why his appetite so down. Grandma asked, just shut up. It was undeniable that he also felt the same trauma as Nina.
Ranita's mother sighed softly. It's so sorry for them. From this, he can read that Mila's cruelty to her children has been going on for a long time to cause serious traumatic effects. As a mother who knew that Mila had tortured her inner and physical children certainly grew angry even though it was on her own daughter. But as a parent, he chose to vent his anger by giving him an example that Mila could later emulate.
“Well, now can Nina and Nani eat alone?” ask the grandmother.
Nina nodded.
“Can, Grandma. Nina can also feed Nani. Every day when my mother is not there. Nina the nyapuin.”
Hearing her grandson's words, immediately Mother Ranita widened. Didn't expect a child as small as Nina to be able to feed Nani. Really bad Mila. Wherever he is, so he does not pay attention to his children.
“What? so Nina can feed Nani? did your mother never bribe you?” Ranita's mother deliberately raised her voice by glancing at Mila again. On a wheelchair, her daughter looked deeper and deeper.
The whole person in the room was silent. Afraid of being the target of her employer's anger, Baby sitter soon passed after pouring water into several glasses. While Ranita's mother's speech, like a big rock that pierced Mila's head to the weight to look at her mother's face. This time Mila felt really embarrassed.
“But Nina, now Nina doesn't have to feed Nani anymore huh. Because now there is a Grandma who wants to feed you,” said Ms. Ranita while scooping rice. Snail the meat and then put it on the rice that has been scooped.
“Let's open your mouths wide!” pinta Ranita's. Her face was so happy to be able to feed her two grandchildren. Nina complies and opens her mouth, followed by Nani who also opens her mouth.
Attentively, Ibu Ranita fed her grandchildren one after another for several feedings until the rice was left half a plate. He was glad that his grandson ate well. It feels so good to feel this happiness. Nina and Nani are thrilled to have this incredible affection. This is how it feels to have a grandmother.
...*****...
Mila and her children have lived in an apartment for three months. Since they returned to their mothers, their lives have been assured, including their nutritional needs. Undeniably, Ibu Ranita spent big enough money to meet their daily needs.
Mila's treatment slowly on her children has softened. His hands were no longer stiff anymore to feed Nina and Nani. As he did this morning, in his hand was carrying a portion of food for Nina and Nani's breakfast.
“Come on Nina, Nani, watch her TV stop. You guys have breakfast first. I brought rice with cow's eye eggs,” call Mila. Walking closer to his son who was busy watching TV.
Got the call Nina and Nani compactly turned her head. On the faces of his two children, he looks excited.
“Asyik,” shouted Nina while clapping. “I know artificial cow's eye eggs Mom must be delicious.”
Praised by her daughter, Mila smiled. While in front of the two, Mila squatted to be as tall as Nina and Nani who were sitting on the sofa. Then take a spoonful of rice and slice the egg part of the cow's eye.
“Eits, who wants first Mommy bribe?”
Nina quickly pointed at Nani, which made Nani shake her finger. Mila chuckles at the behavior of her two daughters. He just realized that he has a cute daughter.
At Nina's request, Mila feeds Nani. Nina was on the second feed. And so on until the food was back again.
On the last feed, again Mila made a challenge. Who among his two children would eat that last mouthful?
“You guys are great, the food is finished. Just one more bite. Who wants to eat one last bite?” said Mila while lifting the spoon that already contains the last bribe and preparing to feed it into the mouth of his son who wants.
His mother's words were then responded by Nina who also pointed at Nani. He wanted the last bribe to be given to Nani.
And Mila complies with Nina's wishes again. His hand moved to deliver the spoon to Nani's gaping mouth. However, once in front of Nani's mouth, suddenly a mobile phone ringing. Until Mila immediately canceled the bribe and put it back on the plate. The plate then he placed it carelessly on the guest table. The run was scattered, immediately grabbed his cellphone lying on the mattress.
When she saw the phone screen, she called. What's my mom calling this early in the morning? Wasn't this the hours he started busy at the office? Not wanting to linger, he finally received the phone call.
“Halo.”
“Halo, Mba Mila?” ask someone from behind the phone. Mila immediately knew that the man was not her mother.
“Iya my own. What's up?”
“I am the secretary of Ms. Ranita, would like to announce that Ms. Ranita passed away,” replied the woman who claimed to be her mother's secretary. The news then made Mila surprised at once.
“What died? Don't joke, huh?” about Mila not believing in the sad news.
