Longsuffering

Bathing

I slept in a fantasy

wrap the hope painfully

open your eyes and wake up

I'm lying around

pats a mirage

- Vishnu

Jakarta, Wita - Vishnu - Rumi - Adhis

Vishnu Pov

"Have you got the address? the place is safe, is it Ndra?", I asked Andra this morning. I have to make sure that Wita now lives in a safe place. This is the first time Wita has lived in Jakarta. The hard city is full of human fate fights. Although it is true, Jakarta is not a foreign city for him. There is a dark history listed in his life book about the disappearance of memories in the past due to the carelessness I once made.

"Sir, sir, I've made sure", replied Andra firmly. "Yes yesterday you didn't want to go home?" ask Andra to investigate. I let out my breath.

Wita. she is a golden veiled woman worthless. I am a fighter who must prepare all my ammunition and strength to win back his heart. Just like I trained in the past, now.. Wita elaborated an unbrimmed story for me to scratch a speck of heart.

Yesterday, my career consultation went on for a while, even though when I asked my other friends, they only spent a coma and a half hours. Unlike me who spent two hours and thirty minutes. I even prayed magrib late than usual.

I didn't think that yesterday would be my last meeting with Wita after this longing lasted too long. I express everything freely. He was a comfortable talkative for me. I can't stop thinking, is this the greatness of Wita? He is able to become another figure that is very charming. Listening, answering and empathy. While he?, tidying in the depths of the wound that I have not been able to treat.

The world seems to be, always paradoxical about reality. Smiling and crying, happy when injured, strong and weak, strong and fragile. My wife.is now playing a very swooping play in my heart.

I'm not a fool who can't take advantage of opportunities. True Andra said, I intended to drive her home but her refusal embarrassed me myself. "I will have a follow-up meeting with my team, sorry Mr. Vishnu, they are waiting in the car".

...

"Ndra has not succeeded" I finally admit my failure to bring my Time home. The wita always managed to bring me to my knees with all its charm. I'd love to tell him, this is my territory, you can't refuse my request. But my tongue was unable to refute whatever it wanted.

Sometimes I wonder where Vishnu who has the power to lead it. Which all his words and words can never be denied by anything or anyone. I seem to be too careful with what I'm dealing with. Wita. don't let go back from my grasp because of my carelessness.

"It's bang, focus work today!", Andra stopped my daydreams today. "Ready-ready! Mba Wita will be here soon, nemuin brother", said Andra.

"Eh.. how can I?", I asked in wonder, half in disbelief because as long as Wita here it is difficult for me to meet him.

"Yes could be laaaah, pan gapak again kangeen", Andra's tease that I returned with a ballpoint pen from my desk.

"Hahahahaha.naga naganya there are those who miss it hard" Andra taunted me. Damn it!, falling in love just know the taste of lo!!!

When I was upset listening to Andra's laughter as well as that annoying great assistant, I heard the carefree voice of a little child coming into my room.

"uh..Assalamu'alaikum", says.

"salaaaam", he replied.

The sweet little boy ran towards me. I stood up from my chair and greeted her with a hold of my little daughter.

"Aphis doesn't go to school?", I asked because this morning my son and my brother suddenly appeared in my office.

"Teu teu (no) read the announcement. Last night there was a chat from his teacher today. Drokor catiduran (sleeping) male watch drakor. hehehehehe". Hadeuh, my teteh this one does need to be given a trophy if the Korean drama chapter. His age is old, but his taste spectacle matters are young.

"Aphis has not had breakfast Wis, do not want ah diolo teh (persuaded)", complained Rumi tea to me.

Well, I have to admit conquering Adhis is not an easy thing. To Teh Rumi I must give her many thanks, worthy of gratitude with thousands of words of prayer for her. Because with his patience Adhis now does not feel the loss of a mother figure that I cannot present for him. But until when will this one sacrifice? I should have remembered very well about my promise to Kang Indra to be able to open a new page.

"This is the food, let Vishnu bribe", while stepping foot to the sofa while holding Adhis I ask for food supplies to Teh Rumi who had not had time to eat Adhis this morning.

I had not been able to sit on the sofa, and prepare the food, I heard the sound of knocking on the door in my room. Andra where?, I asked in my heart. Ko didn't say he was fitting out.

"God's Cause", I heard my voice cry out in surprise. Suddenly I walked towards the door that was blocked by a wooden partition equipped with displays of award trophies that I had won. I saw my brother hugging a woman I never stopped missing. Wita looked at me who was holding Adhis.

"Mother Witaaa.. ih kangen this really teteeeeeh", hey... What's wrong with my teteh? Since when did the student guardian who is commonly called mamah convert themselves to be the teacher of Wita?

"How are you?", Rumi's tea took off his embrace.

"Alright, thank God", he answered looking shocked at what greeted him. Let alone you Wita, I just do not believe in my brother's work.

Hearing Wita's voice, Adhis who was in my sling who had originally turned his back towards the door suddenly turned to the source of the voice.

"Teteh ga know that the mother of Wita is in cooperation with Vishnu's company", my brother chatted on the sofa of my work room after I briefly explained why Wita was in my office. While Witaku, just smiling in his seat while enjoying a warm embrace Adhisku who can not be separated from his carrier since.

"Yes already here atuh Adhisnya, can there want a meeting yes you guys" said Teh Rumi while persuading Adhis to take him. But the scene that makes me full was displayed by Adhisku, he did not want to escape from the arms of Wita even though Rumi Tea had persuaded.

"It's okay, let Adhis be here" said Wita made my brother smile happily.

"Athis mah gitu da for sure, if there is already a mother Wita forgot deh same mamah Rumi", teah Rumi goda. "Yes have brought you drinking water first for you guys" he continued again while stretching out of my room.

I can't deny, I'm happy with this view. I looked at these two women I loved, now right in front of my eyes.

Hugging Adhis in his arms does not necessarily stop Wita's intention to be in this room. He explained all the progress of the cooperation program carried out by his team to me. I watched and listened to it carefully. But my focus now stopped when Adhis whispered something to Wita's ear. I moved my lips without a sound to him. "What?", I whispered.

Wita just smiled at me. Ah.. Wita don't smile that way, I could die looking at her.

He then said quietly to me, whispering "Aphis is hungry he said".

He then whispered something to Adhis ear, the pleasant sight I saw. Adhis-Wita is like a pair of human beings who are in coalition to ignore my presence.

After receiving Wita's whisper, Adhis nodded and suddenly released himself from Wita's sling. Sitting next to his mother, on the same sofa.

"is there food?", asked Wita.

"Eh. there", I was amazed by his more relaxed tone with me.

I hand over the food that was stored on my desk to Wita. Open up that food. The food that Rumi Tea had prepared was in front of Adhis. On my long work couch Adhis sat cross-legged looking at all the dishes in front of him.

Wita handed over a pair of spoons and forks to Adhis, "Goodbye, read the prayer first", said Wita.

"Bismillah", said Adhis then eat the food that Wita provides. I was surprised to see the behavior of Adhis in front of me. Me and Rumi Tea had the hardest time persuading him to eat. Even Adhis had never eaten himself, he had to be persuaded and fed.

Wita continued her work report to me, I occasionally saw her moving around wiping Adhis cheek with tissue. Smiling at my daughter and occasionally justifying the eating container that Adhis was wearing.

Wita again explained some things about his work. And our focus stopped when Adhis said, "Mother ..is over".

I was surprised to see the appearance of Adhis, so suddenly I wanted to be angry with my little Adhis. But my intentions stopped when I heard Wita's laughter warm my heart.

"haha... Adhis never eats alone, right?" askinya. I did not expect, the sight that made me upset turned out to be a source of laughter for Wita.

Adhis now looks dirty with the chocolate that my brother poured into sweeteners for cheese bananas. While the rest of the rice and vegetables look messy on my sofa. Adhis clothes were wet from the milk spill. Perfect!

"Aphis brought a change of clothes?", he asked me by brandishing the doraemon bag that Rumi Tea always carries. He stood up, carrying my Lord in his car. "Bathroom?", he asked me. I flinched and immediately walked non-speaking to the bathroom in my office in the right corner.

I saw him enter the bathroom without hesitation. Take off all of Adhis clothes that look dirty. I could see that my Adhis body was sticky with the milk and chocolate he had spilled.

"Child soap?", he asked. I looked for it in the bag that I had been carrying. I handed it to him while he went to the bathroom. "Just wait outside, it will get wet, while please prepare a towel!", he ordered me.

I'm still confused by what I saw. I followed his orders, stepped away to prepare the towel he asked for. Then enjoy this beautiful view in front of my bathroom door. Oh my God, so this is what it's like to have a perfect family. I momentarily dreamed that what was in front of me was not a mirage that would momentarily disappear and I could not achieve its realization.

My wife.he bathed my little girl lovingly. Sometimes they laugh. Did he not realize that half his clothes were wet? I smile at my own smile. Is that how happy it is?

"Handlet?" it was now on the door lips to break the smile that I was curling on my lips. I'm giving you Adhis towel. He wrapped Adhisku's body, carried him and moved Adhis to my arms.

I then made him realize from all the activities that made him forget the role and arrogance he had been maintaining.

"You need a towel too".

"Eh?!!.", he glanced at his entire body which was now wrapped in a soaked shirt.
