My husband, my Beloved (Revised)
The Extra Chapter
After finishing the prayer, Kaf continued to sulk not wanting to go to school.
"Try talking to Mother, why Kaf today did not enter. Kaf is not sick?". Rain persuades his son who is hiding behind a bedcover of Kaf's favorite cartoon images. Kaf remained unanswered, his head shaking under the covers. Of course Rain could not see. Rain caught a glimpse of his phone and it was already 05:30. Is that how you persuaded Kaf to go to school?
"Yes already, Mother to the kitchen first yes make breakfast. Kaf will be at home. Mother of school, Baba, Grandma Eyebrow same Enin to the restaurant. He said Kaf likes to imagine Grandma Aunt as Grandpa Odang if hehihi himself" Rain deliberately scares her son. Because in addition to Bibi, Mang Odang has also died. I don't know who said it first. Kaf became a bit of a coward after their departure. Kaf terlaly hangs out a lot with tea-picking moms, anyway.
"There will be tea-picking mothers. Kaf just went to pick tea". Kaf yelled behind his blanket, Rain only heard it faintly.
"Yes, Mother lost. Mother to the kitchen yes". Rain walked slowly away from his son. No Rain had reached the lip of the door yet, Kaf had already hugged her from behind.
"Ok, Kaf school. But it has to be delivered with Baba too".
Rain turned his body and squatted in alignment with his son's body. The sound of both cheeks adorable Kaf then frowned alternately.
"Ahmad Sakaf is a smart child, the school does not need to be delivered. If Baba doesn't work, then where will God lower his provision?"
Sakaf thought for a moment twirling his eyeballs.
"Hi, hey why is Baba koq so serious". Ega who had just returned from the mosque reached out his hand to be kissed by his son and wife alternately.
"Oh yes, Ba. Kaf asked Mr. Ustadz. He said Baba and the Mother can hold hands and hug". Kaf remembered something about the results of the answer given by Mr Ustadz related to the question about should not Mother and Baba cuddle?
Rain and Ega chuckled and kissed Kaf's cheeks together.
"Smart kid". Ega rattled his son's straight and soft hair.
"But Kaf is ashamed to go to school today". Kaf lowered his head.
"Then why, right Mother Kaf's own teacher". Ega grabbed his son's body and raised it on his shoulders and took him running around in the room.
"Yes, yes Kaf to school was not delivered Baba and not ashamed".
Kaf has been laughing it feels like riding odong-odong in the night market only.
🍂🍂🍂
Kaf and Rain were both wearing shoes when a little girl was still sitting on a swing by herself while propping up her chin with both hands.
"Bun, it's Frea". Kaf pointed towards Frea. He just sat on that swing without moving it.
"Frea". Shouted a woman wearing a knee-length dres without arms. The knock from his heels made Frea who had been looking down changed sumringah.
"Mommy". Frea soon sprinkles into the lap of the woman she calls Mami. Rain invites Kaf to approach them. Rain felt familiar with the woman who was holding Frea.
"Little?" Rain made sure that it was really Cecil.
"Rain, Loe's son goes to school here too?" Cecil brushed off the hair that was blocking his face.
Just Rain will say, Frea first explained.
"That's the rain Mother, Mommy. Teacher Frea". Children prefer to call Rain as Mother of Rain. They already understand that Rain is Rain in Indonesian.
"Oh My God, the world is so narrow it feels like you can meet Loe again". Cecil lowered Frea because he felt heavy for too long carrying her.
"It's not tea plantation, is it?" Cecil squinted his forehead.
"There's a house in it, we can talk first. Frea, Mother's beautiful daughter. Want to go to Kaf's house?" Rain looked at Frea who immediately jumped.
"Fre wants to, Mommy. Come Mam".
Kaf stared intently at the behavior of Frea who tugged at the end of Cecil's dress while whining and jumping around.
"Frea, if you ask for something, our mother has to be polite. Her soft words do not whine. Is that it, Bun?" Kaf turned to look at Rain who was smiling and nodded while rubbing his son's head affectionately. Frea was instantly silent and snorted in annoyance.
"Yes, I'm not in a hurry either. Come". Cecil's words made Frea smile again even though she was still staring vengefully at Kaf. Kaf just shook his head 'It's good I told you, even glared' Kaf muttered.
Then the four of them walked side by side towards Rain's house.
Cecil stared in amazement at the tea plantation which had many benches around its side. Especially when he raised his head up, he saw there was a glass building combined with wood. Although only looking from afar but it seems like the place is very fun.
"What's that place, Rain?"
"Oh that's our restaurant, it has been approximately 5 years opened. I'm not in the company anymore". Rain replied as they reached the courtyard of the house.
"Sit outside, Rain". Cecil pointed at the wooden chair on the porch of the house.
"Ok, you guys wait a minute. I'm the same Kaf into first". Rain took his son to change clothes immediately.
Cecil sat down while Frea was interested in seeing daisies lying in the courtyard of the house. There are butterflies that perch on a beautiful flower with yellow color.
"Fre you want to see that?"
Cecil nodded, this was the first time Frea had asked permission if she wanted to do something. What was the story of Rain's son the cause?
"Can, no Mam?" Frea clenched her hands under her chin, what does that mean?.
"Yes, don't go far".
"Yeay, thanks Mami". Frea gave a glimpse of Cecil's cheeks and immediately ran a small butterfly that perched on a bed of daisies. Don't be asked, the butterfly flew away as soon as it heard the pounding of Flea's feet. Frea put on a disappointed face, but was eager to see it up close.
Ega ran around carrying a white plastic in her hand. His gaze was immediately fixed on Frea who was crouching in front of the daisy flower and then turned to look at Cecil who was also looking at him. Slowly Ega approached Cecil.
"Cecil, Loe koq can be here?"
"Gue was going to pick up my son". Cecil pointed at Frea with his chin.
"So Frea who likes Kaf told me that's Loe's son?" I sat in one of those wooden chairs. Cecil just nodded.
"Ragga, Loe's been lying to Rain?" Cecil.
"What lie, Mom?" Rain from the inside carried a tray filled with drinking water and snacks immediately curious to hear Cecil's words. Cecil is still Cecil, if you can't talk slowly.
The deg!
