Mother to My Nephew

3. Juice Made in Annisa.

After finishing making the juice, Annisa delivered the juice to Roland's room. Annisa knocked on Roland's room door many times but neither opened the door.

Why not open the door too? Where's A Roland? What else is prayer or bathing, huh? Just open the door? Open no, huh? Just open it.

Bismilahirohmanirohim, whispered Annisa in heart.

Slowly Annisa opened Roland's room door.

“Aa..Aa Roland,” call Annisa while putting her head into the room.

Annisa looked around Roland's room looking lonely. There was only the sound of water gurgling from inside the bathroom.

Aa is taking a shower. Where do the juicers keep? The whisper of Annisa in the heart.

Annisa circulated her gaze around Roland's room. His eyes were fixed on the study table which was near the window of the room. Annisa kept the juice on the study table, after which Annisa quickly got out of the room.

Roland had just come out of the bathroom, he saw someone just come out of his room.

Wh who? whispered Roland inwardly.

But as soon as he saw the juice on his study table, he found out that Annisa had just walked into his room.

Want Roland to taste the juice made by Annisa, but considering he has not prayed ashar then later just taste it. He immediately prayed ashar.

At seven o'clock the Elly Mother family gathers for dinner together. Mr. Supardi had already returned from the office before the magrib adhan. So they can have dinner together. During the meal they did not talk much, they ate quietly

“How does Annisa feel at home not staying here?” ask Mr. Supardi after he finished eating.

“Pah, Annisa just arrived last afternoon, the time has been asked not to stay here?” chirps Roland.

“God willing Ua,” replied Annisa.

“Pah, juice made by Annisa is better than Bi Minah's,” Roland said.

Mr. Supardi turned to Roland.

“Bener, Land? Do you know where you are?” ask Mr. Supardi.

“Bener, Pah. Why Roland lied. Last afternoon Roland made in juice with Annisa,” Roland replied.

“That's because she asked Annisa to make juice,” said Ms. Elly while eating oranges.

Then Mr. Supardi's view turned to Annisa.

“Ua want to try juice made by Annisa,” said Mr. Supardi.

“Bby Ua. What juice do you want to make?” ask Annisa.

“Ua want soursop juice,” replied Mr. Supardi.

“Eh..Mah, the soursop is not there?” ask Mr. Supardi to Elly's mother.

“There is, complete all the fruit is in the refrigerator,” replied Ms. Elly.

Annisa stood up from her chair.

“Eh.... Where are you going Nis?” ask Miss Elly.

“You can remove Ua Pardi juice,” replied Annisa.

“Make two, Ua Elly also want,” said Bu Elly.

“All Annisa make juice for Annisa herself,” added Ms. Elly.

“Iya Ua,” replied Annisa then went to the kitchen.

After Annisa is nowhere to be seen, Elly's mother speaks softly to her husband and son.

“Pah-Roland, don't make Annisa feel sorry for her too often. Mama sent Annisa here to go to college and raise her family's degrees, not to be told. our ART is a lot, the time is still rumbling Annisa,” scolded Miss Elly.

“Papah just want to try the juice made by Annisa,” said Mr. Supardi.

“Roland pity Annisa, she is again confused no work,” Roland said innocently.

Elly's mother only sighed at the answer of her husband and son.

Shortly thereafter Annisa came up with four glasses of juice.

“Kok make four, Nis? One more for whom?” ask Elly's mother.

“Create Aa Roland. But this is soursop juice. If dragon fruit juice was already this afternoon,” replied Annisa.

Hearing Annisa's reply Roland's face became delighted.

“Wah...you really are Aa Roland's best sister,” Roland said.

Elly's mother sneered at Roland's words.

Mr. Supardi drank his juice.

“Wah. Everything fits,” exclaimed Mr. Supardi.

Elly's mom drank her juice.

Turns out exactly what Roland said, whispered Elly's mother.

“Thank you, Nis. Juice is good,” said Ms. Elly.

“Sama-sama, Ua,” replied Annisa.

Elly's mother glared at her husband.

“Papah…..Annisa wants to go to college, why is she even told to open a business?” mother Elly's Protest.

“Mah, Papah is just nawarin. Good time Annisa is interested in opening a business,” said Mr. Supardi.

“Thank you for the offer Ua. Maybe someday if Annisa is not too busy college, Annisa wants to open a business too,” said Annisa.

“Tuh Mah horrified what Annisa said. He also did not refuse to open a business,” said Mr. Supardi.

Elly's mother breathed.

“Mah, tomorrow Annisa whose college list is delivered?” ask Mr. Supardi.

“It looks like you were ushered in Mr. Maman,” replied Ms. Elly.

Elly's mother turned her gaze to Roland.

“Roland, you have a lecture tomorrow?” ask Elly's mother.

“There is lecture from morning until afternoon,” replied Roland while enjoying the juice made by Annisa.

“Can't you accompany Annisa buy form?” ask Elly's mother.

“What time?” ask Roland.

“From home at half past ten,” replied Ms. Elly.

“Roland finishes college in the morning at ten. Roland wait at the main door,” Roland said.

“Alhamdullilah. Nis, Aa Roland can nemenin you buy the form. So you are not confused to find a registration place. You see, the Roland campus is wide, later you get lost,” said Elly's mother to Annisa.

“Mah, even if lost is still in the campus environment. Will not get lost to Bogor,” said Mr. Supardi.

“Iihh ….Papah, Mamah is afraid that Annisa is disturbing,” said Ms. Elly.

“Low if someone disturbs Annisa, her name is also a beautiful woman. As long as they do not act insolently, let it not be heard,” said Mr. Supardi.

Elly's mother turned again to Roland.

“Just Roland wait until Annisa comes!” elly's Mother's orders.

“Siap, Mah. Anyway Roland take care of Mamah's nephew,” Roland replied.

The clock on the wall showed at eight o'clock in the evening. They went back to their own rooms.

The next morning after dawn prayers Annisa to the kitchen was about to help ART make breakfast.

It looks like Bi Minah is cutting red onions.

“You cook what, Bi?” asked Annisa while approaching Bi Minah.

“You cook fried rice, Non,” replied Bi Minah.

“Annisa help, yes Bi,” Annisa said.

Bi Minah thought for a moment. Then…

“Bby, Non. Non who makes eggs plugged,” said Bi Minah.

“Siap, Bi,” says Annisa.

Then Annisa began to make a splashy egg.

“This guy put where?” asked Annisa after she finished making a flat egg.

Bi Minah who was busy making fried rice, glanced at the flat eggs made by Annisa.

“Put on the dining table, Non,” replied Bi Minah.

Annisa keeps a cellophole on the dining table. Then he went back to the kitchen.

“Non, please keep fresh bread and jam, messes and butter on the dinner table,” said Bi Minah.

“Sorry yes, Non. Aunt so tell Non.”

“Eh. Annisa has been used to helping Mamah at home,” Annisa said.

Then Annisa brought fresh bread along with jam, messes and butter to the dinner table.
