Instantaneous Sweetness

Temporary Residence

Slowly the car's glass was opened.

‘’Monik? Where are you taking your baby?’’

‘’Ayu? I don't know, Yu. I don't know where.’’ is going

‘’ Arrgghh!’’

‘’That you are in pain, you just got out of the hospital, Monik. Swing up!’’ at once Ayu rushed to open the car door.

In my heart I also confirmed Ayu's words. Yeah, because my stitches haven't healed yet. The pain is still there, let alone I've walked this far.

‘’A—aku has been a lot of trouble for you and you have helped me a lot. Moreover, the additional cost of your hospital also pays,’’, I said slowly.

‘’Don't like that ah, I'm lazy! You see your baby, don't you pity?’’ he said while looking at my baby who was sleeping.

I also turned to look at my baby who was still in my arms. Ayu is right too. Who knows if he can find a solution for me so I can stay for a while.

‘’Ayuk up!’’

‘’Ta—but where to go, Yu?’’

‘’Later you will know kok.’’

He smiled as his hand opened the car door for me. Without thinking, I rushed to the car.

‘’Oh yes, what exactly is Monik? Why did you bring your baby from home? Is Om and Aunt angry again?’’ ask Ayu when she enters her car.

‘’Papa hates me again,’’ sahutku sober.

‘’What? How can? Not that Om Indra can already accept you and your child?’’ sontak made Ayu shocked for a moment.

‘’ I—iya, indeed before Papa had been able to accept the situation of me and my baby, but when returning home, the neighbors on insulting and berating both my parents, including me. And it makes Papa hate me again, I can not stay in my house again,’’ I said at length with a vibrating voice.

Instantly make Ayu shake his head,’’Ya Allah, Om Indra too emotional possible, Monik. It's all because of the insults and insults of the neighbors, I know Om Indra actually can not afford to throw you out of the house. He is a good man, don't hate your Papa huh?’’

I breathe heavily.

‘’I think so too, Yu.’’

‘’No, I won't hate Papa. These are all me.’’

‘’Thank God, you should be able to live this all yes. For the sake of your baby.’’ she rubbed my back gently and gave a spirited smile.

I nodded,’’ Thanks, Yu.’’

Ayu just smiled and nodded.

‘’So where were you going?’’

‘’Ndon't know, Yu. I don't know where to go,’’ said me while wiping the circle of tears that have fallen since.

‘’How can I find a place to stay?

I shook my head as soon as possible,’’No, Yu. I don't want to trouble you anymore. Da—and later I will definitely be expelled by residents again, let alone I bring a baby without his father,’’.

‘’Ngot a hassle at all. We won't be looking for a hostel, but you're staying at my Tantu house for a while. His name is Aunt Sisi.’’

‘’Ta—but, Yu—’’

‘’My husband's aunt died a year ago, he also has no children. Surely he's happy if you stay there.’’ Ayu cut my conversation.

‘’How about my status, Yu?’’ tanyaku.

‘’I will not try to hide your status, besides you just stay there.’’

‘’You will marry Andre, of course he will take you to stay with him,’’ he added later.

‘’Ma’af, Yu. I'm not sure if Andre wants to marry me as soon as possible. Especially now that Papa hates me.’’

‘’You are calm, in the way of Allah he wants to marry you as soon as possible. You have to be sure.’’

‘’And about Om Indra, I am sure he will return mema’afmu.’’

‘’Where? Aren't you sure you're staying at my Tante place? Look at that little guy, pity him, right? If you do not get a house to rest, how you and small will rest. Moreover, you finished the operation a few days ago.’’

For a moment I thought ,’’I want, Yu.’’

‘’Nah, so dong. Yuk, we go directly to my Tante house!’’ I nodded, Ayu immediately started the engine of the car.

The wind passed by and entered the gap of the car glass and hit my hood. Making eyes instantly sleepy, I looked at my little baby still asleep in my lap.

‘’This is how it is, son. Because Mama does not think about what the consequences are, this is how we lack knowledge about religion. Mama will educate you tomorrow, tell you to study religion if you live long. Enough Mama who is like this, even though you were born without a father but you are an innocent child. Mama wants you to be a sholeh child. And don't copy your Papa,’’ my inner self while looking at him wistfully.

‘’Monik, you can definitely change to a better one. I'm sure it is,’’ said Ayu who is focusing on driving. Sometimes looking at me.

‘’Help me yes, Yu,’’ said to me, he nodded and smiled, I saw a glimpse behind the rearview mirror.

A few minutes later, his car came to a halt in front of a simple house.

Ayu turned off her car engine, then rushed down.

‘’Yuk down!’’ take him while opening the door. I also went down slowly.

‘’Be careful, Monik!’’ I nodded while smiling.

‘’Alhamdulillah, we came too,’’ said Ayu smiled at the simple house owned by aunt Sisi. Monik hurried to get my suitcase in the car and put it down. I also returned to the suitcase.

‘’No weight, Monik? Let me help you carry it,’’ bargain.

‘’No, Yu. Let me bring you.’’

‘’Thank God. Uh, but you should know that my Tante is a woman who is sholeh and very diligent worship.’’

‘’You can learn with him, Monik.’’

‘’What? A—aku did not pantes stay with him, Yu.’’ as far as I was surprised.

‘’Hussh! Don't be so loud, you can't talk like that. Everyone has different sins, everyone has mistakes and everyone also has the opportunity to improve themselves, the opportunity to repent. You have to remember and understand that, Monik!’’ firmly Ayu who was looking at me.

‘’Iya, Yu. But I'm afraid he knows who I really am.’’

‘’You don't have to worry, I'll try to cover it up. And you are also just a moment here, I'm sure Andre will soon marry you.’’

‘’Believe deh. Yuk!’’ take Ayu back to look at my worried face.

Without thinking anymore I rushed after Ayu. I searched his house so wide and simple, but somehow peace felt by this heart when looking at this simple house. Is there a secret to make the house look peaceful and cool eyes see?

‘’Assalamua’alaikum, Aunt.’’

‘’Wa’alaikumussalam. Uh, Ayu!’’ the woman whom I had estimated to be thirty years old rushed to us who were still at the doorstep, she was still wearing a face. It seems after performing the dzhuhur prayer. Allah! His face is so stinging. Maybe it was the truth that Ayu said earlier.

‘’Kok didn't say anything to here?’’

‘’Eh, know Tan. This is Ayu's best friend, his name is Monik. And her husband is working,’’ Ayu explained.

‘’Ma’af yes, Tan. Not happy to be here.’’ The aunt just looked smiling.

‘’I Monik, Aunt.’’ I'm against that three-headed woman. He smiled for a moment.

‘’Ayuk take your best friend in!’’ bring aunt Sisi.

‘’Yuk in Monik!’’ I followed Ayu, but her aunt stopped stepping for a moment.

‘’Kok bring suitcase everything? Where are you guys going?’’ he asked with a surprised face and pointed at the suitcase in my hand. My lips moved for a while, wanting to answer her question but I didn't know what to answer.

‘’Oh this, Tan. Later we will tell you inside yes,’’ Ayu said, instantly I breathe a sigh of relief.

**

‘’Ayuk sit down first! Let Aunt make you a drink.’’

‘’No need, Tan. Look, can Ayu's best friend stay with Aunty temporarily. Then her husband will pick her up, Tan. Poor she has not been able to live, let alone she brought her baby,’’ said Ayu to the point, while nodding at the chair.

‘’Moreover he's also just been out of the hospital this week. The stitches have not healed as well,’’ added Ayu carefully. As soon as I was worried, what if Aunt Sisi asked my family. What should I answer?

‘’Yes Allah, help me who many of these sins.’’ I satin.

Aunt Sisi did not answer, but looked at me and also thought of something. I'm getting worried about it.

‘’Alright, Aunt even happy because there are no friends at home. Moreover, there is a baby,’’ he said with a smile. And his words can make me feel relieved and say

‘’alhamdulillah’’ in my heart.

‘’Alhamdulillah, thank you, Aunt ,’’.

‘’Sama-sama, consider this your own home.’’

‘’Still, Tan. I'm willing to accept Yu's best friend here. If so Ayu said yes, Tan.’’

‘’Sama-sama, eh really fast, Yu? Do you want to talk to Auntie?’’

‘’Mau to Grandma's house, Tan. Wake up, time is not. Later Ayu will be here again kok.’’

‘’Where is Grandma?’’

‘’Alhamdulillah quite recovered, Tan. But he could not take his own food, so Ayu wanted to take food for Grandma. Ayu will be here again kok.’’

‘’Alhamdulillah. Okay if so, be careful bring the car yes.’’

‘’Tante send greetings to Father, Mother and Grandma.’’

‘’Iya, Aunt. In the Lord, later Ayu sampein.’’

‘’Monik, I say yes first. Don't hesitate, consider your own parents. Right, Tan?’’ Ayu who was looking at me, immediately turned to look at Aunt Sisi.

‘’Nah, true what your friend said this.’’

‘’OK, Yu. Be careful with the car. Later or tomorrow to here again.’’

‘’Iya. Do not fuss here yes, son,’’ said Ayu Lirih while holding my little baby cheek.

‘’Ya, Tan. Ayu said goodbye first, assalamua’laikum.’’ He rushed up and grabbed Sisi's aunt's hand for reverence.

‘’Be careful yes, don't speed, Yu. Wa’alaikumussalam.’’ The aunt smiled.

Ayu rushed over, but she turned around again.

‘’Tan, take care of Ayu's best friend yes.’’

‘’Allah, I think Auntie is what was there. Yes, you are calm,’’ said aunt Sisi while patting her forehead slowly. I also laughed a little.

‘’Iya, because she will be a week more ready to give birth.’’

‘’Tante understands. You're worried Yu if your best friend is going to Aunty doom work?’’ the woman I just knew seemed to be chuckling.

‘’It's not so, Tan. Ayu just reminded me,’’ said Ayu while scratching her head which was wrapped in a veil. Making Aunt Sisi shake her head, while I just smile.

‘’Ya already, Ayu go home first, Tan.’’

‘’Astaghfirullah, how many times did it leave nih.’’

Ayu chuckled and hurried to step out of Sisi's aunt's house, momentarily missing from my sight.

‘’Rest there first, Monik. Ayuk Aunt anterin!’’ Aunt Sisi broke my daydream.

‘’Eh, yes Tan.’’

‘’Ayuk, don't hesitate yes. If you want anything just say yes, Monik.’’ I nodded and smiled, then followed Aunt Sisi.

‘’How would Aunt Sisi know everything I've kept secret? What if he kicked me out? Then where else am I going to stay?’’ my inner. And I'm trying to shake off all the bad prejudices that come to my mind.

‘’Nah, here is your room with your little one yes. By the way, what's your baby's name?’’

‘’Allah, I haven't been able to give him a name. Coming home from the hospital I have a problem too, what do I have to answer? Don't let him suspect me.’’

‘’Me—waiting for Papa, Tan. Just a week older,’’ I was nervous, trying to be okay, trying to hide something.

‘’You mean no names yet? Can your husband give his name through a mobile phone, if you do not let the aunt who nyariin how?’’

‘’Eh, what's the name of the Papa?’’

‘’A—Andre, Tan.’’

‘’Alright, later Aunty will find. Now you rest first, then eat yes. Aunt is cooking. Consider your own home,’’ said aunt Sisi.

‘’Iya, Tan. Thank you very much, Aunt.’’

‘’Sama-sama, Aunt stay first yes.’’ I nodded while smiling. He rushed out of the room. I laid the little baby into bed carefully, afraid that he would wake up. Then I went to the room that is now my bed.

‘’But simple. Neat, clean, peaceful and calm eyes look at the entire room space owned by Aunt Sisi,’’ lirihku slowly looking at all corners of the room. Yes, simple but clean, neat and peaceful when looked at by the eyes.

‘’Ta—but my heart was touched looking at Aunt's shady face, I'm sure her face is often wet with wudhu’ water and diligently worship. Yes, as Ayu said. I am not too late to repent to fix myself. Who knows the door of my heart is knocked because of seeing the worship performed by the Aunt every time.’’

Seriate.
