I'm taking you off, Mas!

I'm taking you off, Mas!
Mas Will Go Home to Pick You Up



The end of the month arrived. As usual Afkar will transfer his salary to Yara. Afkar has not informed his wife, maybe when he arrives at the new boarding house he will tell Yara that he has sent his payday this month.


Afkar arrived at his rental at exactly 9 p.m. Usually at the very last night Isya, he went home to work. As for having to check the monthly stock of goods in the warehouse, Afkar requires overtime tonight.


Afkar laid his body on a soft mattress that he had not bought for long. Preparations to welcome the arrival of Yara and Dhiya.


Tired so felt, but when imagining how happy if the spirit of Afkar had been with him at this time. No matter how long and exhausted his work in the factory, will be lost instantly when he came home from work greeted by the two people he loved.


Afkar took his cell phone on the nightstand and then saw a photo that became wallpaper on his phone. Photos of the three of them together, Yara, Dhiya and Afkar. It was not boring to look at the photo, then kissed the picture. I can't wait for the moment when they get together.


"Yara's asleep yet?" Afkar looked at the clock on the wall of his room. Time shows at 11 p.m. "It's night, Yara must be sleeping.


Maybe after the dawn prayer just contact Yara. It's too bad to wake up because of my phone." Afkar rambles himself on his cell phone.


"My wife must be happy to hear the news that I will give you later!" Afkar smiled to himself remembering his plan. He can't wait to tell Yara that he has taken this weekend off to return to his hometown. They can regroup. Afkar will also take Yara and their children to the city. Stay in a remote place. Fight together to make their lives better.

After the dawn prayer, Yara heard her phone ring. Without removing the face, Yara immediately shifted the green button on her phone screen then gave the flat object to Dhiya and said without making a sound, telling her son that the father was the one who called.


"Accalamualaitum, yayah," greeted Dhiya with his slurred voice as he waved his tiny hand towards the camera. Dhiya, her beautiful daughter is awake. He looks to be wearing a mukena. Dhiya had just joined the dawn prayer with her mother.


"Due ... Beautiful daughter of father, very smart is awake. Follow the mother to pray yes," asked Afkar.


Dhiya nodded slowly occasionally glancing towards Yara. The little girl who was given the attention of the father looked timid. Dhiya was struggling spoiled on Yara's arm.


Yara first tidied up the prayer rug they had used. Yara carried him and sat the little girl on his lap. They sit on the side of the bed.


"Smart dad's son, want to get up early, want to help mommy, huh?" ask him again to Dhiya.


“Yes, Dad! Dede Tan want itut father te city, kayo dede lajin tayus doain dad's mother, Dede want to be invited father to kecana!” her son's lisp made Yara who heard kissed Dhiya's wrath.


Afkar smiled at Dhiya.


"You are the best wife and mother we have, Ra!" Afkar said as he looked at Yara. The woman he looked at could only sing a smile. He blushed in shame every time Afkar praised him.


Yara did familiarize and teach Dhiya who was still a child to wake up early and then join the morning prayer congregation with him. Yara also taught him to pray for his father, who was a few months away from them.


Dhiya also obeyed what his mother taught him. Even whatever Yara does at home is always followed by Dhiya.that is how having a daughter, Yara teaches her painstakingly and patiently.


"Yes, right said the mother, I want to pick up this beautiful father's daughter, Dhiya want me to pick her up right?"


"Nor ... Want ... ?” dhiya cheer is girang.


“A minute, Honey. Patience yes!”


Dhiya showed an index finger linked to his thumb. Code Ok, to Afkar while blinking one eye. His behavior made Afkar and Yara chuckle crisply at the cute behavior of their daughter.


He joked a long time ago on a video call. Yara, Dhiya and Afkar had been talking for almost an hour. Dhiya finally looks sleepy.


“Hoaamm"


Just a slow nod with eyes that were almost closed in reply from Dhiya.


Afkar smiled wryly looking at him. "Yes already, now Dhiya settle first yes mukenya! Mommy wants to talk to dad first, yeah, baby!” Dhiya tried to open his eyes. Even though he was sleepy, Dhiya still listened to his mother's words.


Dhiya got out of bed and took off the mucus he was wearing. Then fold the mukena. Although not neat, but Dhiya followed what he saw. As Yara tidied her face and put it on a small table beside the dressing table.


How Afkar can afford to live far away with them. Every behavior and behavior both make the sense of longing more heightened.


"So soon, Mas, I want to put Dhiya to bed first usually when the dawn prayer, he must sleep again! There is something I want to talk about with Mas,”, Yara said.


Dhiya got into bed after what he did was done. The little boy yawned, shortly after getting elusan from the mother, Dhiya immediately fell asleep.


Yara got off her bed. Yara does not want Dhiya to wake up again when she hears her mother still talking to her father.


Yara turned her video call into a regular phone call.


“Ay, today, after work. Mas will return to Mojokerto with car travel.”


Without further ado Afkar immediately informed Yara of the news.


“That's right, Mas?” Yara looks very happy.


“Yes, Mas have taken a week off to go home and pick you up.”


“Mas, have you told me about this?” Ask Yara. He doesn't want to


again blamed by Bu Nuri.


“Without your phone, Mas will notify them. Just relax, Ay!"


“Iya, Mas.”


The conversation lasted only for a moment because Afkar had to go to work. Afkar terminated his phone call. Soon he contacted his parents about his return plans today. Afkar also told him he wanted to take his wife and son with him to the city later.


"It's up to you, Kar! If Yara and Dhiya want to, you can't do anything. That's your household. You can only pray for the best."


Bu Nuri who was beside Mr. Setyo could only sing lips. He was visibly upset because he was banned from talking to Afkar for a long time because it was certain there was only nagging and nagging coming out of his wife's lips.


Bu Nuri waited for her husband to finish talking to Afkar he wanted to complain about Yara's behavior that rarely came to his house.


Bu Nuri also wants to complain about Yara who is still kekeh want to sell cookies. According to him it makes himself embarrassed in front of the wives of farmers who become customers grinding rice in his place. Because they talk about Yara who is still a sales spirit. Though her husband, Afkar is working in the city, which is definitely getting a big salary.


Without Bu Nuri knowing, Yara did that because she had obtained permission from Afkar.
