Merapi Never Ingkar Janji 2 (The Return of the Sultan)

SS. 80. The New Hanifa

"Yes hello."

"Yes, I'm alone sir."

"Yes sir, fine, good sir."

"Thank you very much Sir."

Hanifa smiled happily and looked very busy after receiving a call from her mobile.

"Ma, Mama." Call it to Oma Ratri.

His hands were still busy rummaging through the contents of the closet in his room.

"What's the matter Ifa, who's yelling all the way to the back of her voice." Answer Oma Ratri.

"Ifa received your work, and his position is quite good, as the head of marketing." Excited speech.

However, Oma Ratri seemed to dislike the good news Hanifa gave.

The world of marketing is the world of Hanifa while still single. But the world seemed to drift away, ever since he let go of his bachelor.

And now, he missed that world back. Especially since the death of the husband, the more saturation of silence at home makes his energetic soul turbulent want to work.

From there, the company where he applied for a job, seeing the achievements he had achieved during his work in the marketing world, made a property company appoint him as the head of marketing.

That means, the old Hanifa has returned again and is ready to dabble in her skills.

"Are you sure you'll be working again, son ?" Tanya Oma Ratri still did not believe in her daughter's decision.

"Yes Ma, this is a good opportunity for Ifa." The answer, still with his busy life choosing which clothes he deserves to wear to come to the interview later.

"But Fa, what about Regina, she still needs a lot of your attention." The protest of Oma Ratri who was worried about Hanifa's busyness if he was active later.

Not without reason, all based on experience. In the past, when he was still working in the same field, he had exhausted his time to work. Not even Hanifa can attend family events.

Oma Ratri was afraid that it would happen again. Although Hanifa herself realized that the current Hanifa was not the Hanifa she used to be.

"Mom take it easy, I can definitely split my time for Regina." He tried to convince his mother.

"Mama hope so too." Said Oma Ratri who was slightly disappointed.

"But, Ifa apologized, because again Ifa had to trouble Mama to look after Regina."

"It's okay, son, Mama is happy that Gina can be with Mama every day. Although, actually, Mama doesn't agree with your decision to work." He said, still disappointed.

"Ma, all the Ifa did for Regina's sake, too. Ifa just needs Mama's do'a blessing, so that what Ifa does goes smoothly." Her request.

"Sure son, sure."

A mother's sincerity is second to none. Sometimes we are too selfish. When it is dead obligation of a mother to take care of us, but we still trouble Him to take care of our children.

"Thank you Ma."

Oma Ratri nodded and grabbed onto her daughter's body, both of them hugging each other releasing affection and affection.

"Oma, Mama, what's up ?" Asked Regina who was astonished by the attitude of Mama and Oma.

"Here baby, there's something Oma wants to say." Oma Ratri replied, waving her hand, inviting Regina to join.

With her half-running little steps, Regina jumped into the lap of Oma Ratri.

"Gina, from tomorrow Mama has to work. So during Mama's work, Gina's the same Oma ya." He said he gave understanding.

"Working ? Why Oma ?"

"Everyone in the world has to work, son, and so does Mama. Regina too, if Regina's grown up, Regina's gonna work."

This time Regina fell silent, without comment. Oma herself did not understand, whether she could accept the reason why her mother had to work, or indeed already understood the information that Oma gave.

"Did it work far ?" This time she asked her mother.

"No dear, Mama's workplace, one-way with Gina's school. So, we can go together." Hanifa replied trying to make her son happy.

"If Mama works, who's Gina ?" His complaint.

"And there's Oma dear, Oma will accompany Gina." Oma replied while gently hugging her grandson.

"Gina, Mama did all this for Gina, for Gina's future. The important thing is, Gina is good with Oma, can't be naughty, learn to be cool." Hanifa continued to give understanding.

Seeing Regina speechless for a moment, Hanifa hugged her daughter. No feeling of the clear details flowing on his cheeks.

'Forgive Mama Nak, maybe, if Papa is still there, Mama will not go back to work. Although actually, what Papa left behind is enough for us everyday.' Hanifa complained in her heart.

In fact, despite not returning to work, Hanifa still had income from what her husband left behind. But the name is human, sometimes it still does not feel enough, especially when talking about satisfaction.

"Bye baby, fine at school." Pamit Hanifa takes Regina to school.

Gina did not reply, lazily, she returned the wave of her mother's hand.

"If you go first, ma."

"Be careful on the Fa road, may all go well." Answer Oma Ratri.

"Aamiin, thank you Ma."

Hanifa drove her vehicle out the school gate, along with the arrival of Anita's vehicle.

"Sugar." Call Dya when you find her best friend.

"Yes."

Regina's cheer has returned, when she meets Nindya.

"Mama, Dya into ya ?"

"No, no , no ... Don't run." Mama Tata forbids.

"Yes Ma."

"Hare check, stock check, PR already settled ?" Ask Mama Tata back to make sure.

"It's all Mama."

"Okay, the rest have fun."

"Thank you Mama, emmuach."

"Enmmuach ... Be careful, son."

"Come on Gina." Take her to the classroom."

Mama Tata and Oma Ratri are still waiting.

Actually, Regina and Nindya had dared to be left alone. But because of the distance and time that required his parents to wait.

"Oma, healthy Oma ?" Sapa Tata's.

"Alhamdulillah, healthy son. How's your content ?" He answered again asking.

"Alhamdulillah, all healthy Oma."

"Thank God then."

"Oh yeah, Hanifa how are you, long time no see." Say pleasantries, or perhaps curiosity and

"Alhamdulillah, Ifa well Son. Maybe in the future, he'll be a little busy. So it can't be between schools."

"What's Oma busy ? Sorry, I mean, is Hanifa any new activities ?" Ask Tata marketing.

"Yes my son, starting today, Ifa is working. He's back in the marketing world, like he did when he was single." Answer Oma.

"Oh, thank goodness Oma. May what is Hanifa's hope be fulfilled." Comment Tata.

"Aamiin, thank you son."

Perhaps Hanifa had indeed managed to make her heart burn with jealous flames. But Anita was more able to calm her heart and still be kind to Hanifa and her family.

Tata believed and believed in her husband, that she would not be able to do something that would hurt her heart.
