Mother to My Nephew
27. Rafa Milk.
The next day as usual Annisa woke up at 4:00 am before the dawn of the morning adhan reverberated, while Rafa was still sleeping soundly. Annisa checks out her exhausted cell phone batrey and dichangers first. Then Annisa tidied up the slightly messy room. Annisa takes care of the waste of food and used drinks. Unfortunately in the inpatient room there were no brooms and mop cloths, so Annisa could not sweep and mop the room. Annisa folds her dirty clothes and Rafa's and puts them in a clean plastic bag. Dirty food places he washed using dish soap and sponge that Annisa brought from home (deche experience if you stay at the hotel always bring dish soap with sponge 😁). After everything was done, Annisa took a bath and prepared for the morning prayers. Once finished bathing and berwudhu sounding adhan dawn reverberate. Annisa held a prayer mat and used her face while waiting for the adhan to be completed. The morning prayer is finished with Annisa starting to pray at dawn. Finish dawn prayers Annisa reads the Qur’an for five minutes. When Annisa folds up, Annisa sees Rafa is awake. Rafa was watching Annisa fold face down.
“Ehhhh sholeh child is awake,” greet Annisa.
“Mamah, want to pee,” says Rafa.
“Before, Mom save the face first, yes,” Annisa put her face in the bag and she carried Rafa to the bathroom.
