My madam, my poison

Find a way out

"Goddessa. Zura Ma'am? Fabian Mas? Is this really you? What dream did I have last night suddenly meet you guys today?"

I can catch a twinkle in the woman's eyes.

Yep. I took Fabian to Bu Murni's house in the housing that was once our residence.

"Yes, Mom. It's me and um .. my ex-husband."

Pure Ma nodded in understanding. After knowing what happened between us, I don't think I need to explain when we officially parted.

"Lira? You are already big, Nduk," said Mrs Murni.

"Yes, Mom. It's ten months old."

"Mother misses you, Nduk, mayu."

I just let my good-natured ex-neighbor take over Lyra from her father's sling. After all when I lived here first, he often helped me keep Lyra when I was troubled.

"God, being so happy, I forgot not to invite you in." Pure Ma'am chuckled. He also invited us into the living room.

"What do Zura and Mas Fabian want to drink?" ask Mum Pure.

"No need to bother, ma'am. Actually, we mean to come here because we want to ask Mother for help" I said.

"As long as I can help, God willing, I will help."

"It's about Rayyan" I said.

"Who's Rayyan?"

"The baby boy who was in my wish is called Rayyan. He is the son of Fabian and Karmila" I explained.

"What's wrong with this baby, ma'am? And where's his mother? I don't think I saw Karmila."

From Murni's mom, I turned my gaze to Fabian who was sitting right next to me as a signal that he would answer the question.

"Ehm, my wife .. my wife's at the police station, ma'am."

"Astaghfirullahaldzim says. Fabian's not kidding, is he?"

The mood was silent for a moment.

"Is Mom willing to help me by nurturing and caring for Rayyan? I promise, if I have the money, I will reimburse all the maintenance costs while looking for a nanny" Fabian said.

Pure Ma'am also gave Lyra to Fabian, he then observed Rayyan's face that was still asleep in my sling.

"Pure Mother is crying? Did any of our words offend you?" I asked when I found that pair of neutrals getting wet.

"No, Ma'am. I cry because I am moved. Zura knows, right? For so long, my husband and I have been craving the presence of children. But God does not believe in us. I want to take care of this baby even if it's not paid. I promised I'd take care of him like my own son" she said.

"Alhamdulillah. God brought you up with a good man, son," I said.

"Can I hold Rayyan?" ask Murni.

"Of course, Mom." 

I also gave the baby boy to Murni. I could see happiness in her eyes. Even though it was just a deposit, he still considered it something so valuable.

"Oh yes, Mom. Where is Mr Hasan? Has he gone to teach?" my many.

My question was answered when the husband of Pure Ma'am suddenly appeared in the living room.

"Give the baby back!" the snapping on Pure Bu who was suddenly made us dumbfounded.

"Bather why?"

"I told you not to hold that baby!"
