Mother to My Nephew

20. Children's ERD

In the room Toriq took his white coat, wallet and mobile phone. After that he went back to Rafa's room. Rafa has finished changing clothes. Toriq approached Rafa and carried him.

“Mbok please prepare Rafa's clothes to take to the hospital,” Toriq told Mbok Sarmi before leaving.

“Good, Den,” replied Mbok Sarmi.

Hearing the word Rafa hospital protest.

“Om, Rafa does not want to go to cacit house. Rafa wants to go to Mamah,” said Rafa with a whine.

“Iya, Mamah wait for Rafa in the hospital,” Toriq replied.

Then carrying Rafa downstairs, in the dining room looks like Toriq's parents are waiting for him to eat breakfast.

“Breakfast first, Riq,” said Mother Pomegranate who saw her son was ready to go to the hospital.

“No chance, Mah. Rafa must be taken to the ER,” Toriq said and kissed his parents' hands.

Rafapun kissed Grandpa and Grandma's hands.

“Contact Granny. Rafa wants to go to Mamah duyu, yes,” Rafa said as he waved his hand.

Mrs Pomegranate and Mr. Syamsul drove Toriq and Rafa to the front of the house. Toriq and Rafa get in the car. Pomegranate Mother could only look at Rafa sadly. His grandson was so happy when he wanted to meet Annisa.

“Do we marry Toriq to Annisa?” pomegranate Mother asked her husband while looking at the departure of Toriq and Rafa.

“This friend said what the hell? Not necessarily they want to be betrothed.”

“If Rafa has grown up, surely Rafa also understands that Annisa is not his biological mother. Now what is needed is that your selfish nature must be eliminated. Just let Rafa stay with Enin and Akinya. Later if he has grown up he can choose who to stay with,” said Mr. Syamsul.

“If Rafa next chooses to continue staying with Enin and Akinya, how?” asked Mother Pomegranate sadly.

“Ya it's Rafa's right. Maybe Rafa is more comfortable living there,” replied Mr. Syamsul.

“That's what Mamah fears. Rafa feels comfortable living there and no longer wants to come to our house,” said Ms. Pomegranate.

“But Eninnya Rafa is not selfish like Mamah. They accept the reason Mamah why Rafa should stay with us,” refuted Mr. Syamsul.

“But Mom wants the best for Rafa,” reason Mom Pomegranate.

“That's Mamah said, but for Rafa it's not necessarily the best,” said Mr. Syamsul.

“Udah ah, anyway Mamah want Rafa stay here. Point!” exclaim Mother Pomegranate.

“Yes, it's okay. But do not regret if Rafa suffers,” said Mr. Syamsul then went back into the house.

Pomegranate's mother thought about what her husband said.

Is it true that Rafa will suffer if he continues to be forced to stay here? he said in his heart.

Pomegranate's mother immediately switched her mind, she went inside the house because she had to get ready for the hospital.
