My Soul in Grandpa's Hands
New Home



Aleta looked at the expanse of rice fields that stretched in front of her, with rows of coconut trees on the edge of the garden as a barrier to rice fields with settlements. Fence with wood material that dominates, surrounds the building of residential houses. Devan surprises him by buying a house about 3 km from the campus where Aleta studied.


"Do you like dear" asked Devan who was already standing behind him.


Since then he had been watching Aleta from a distance who seemed to enjoy the nature around him.


"Very like mas, Devan should not have to spend money to buy this house. After all, Aleta's college will not be completed for one year" Aleta said, looking into her husband's eyes.


"This house was bought not only for the sake of completing your studies, but also as a place to live if we want to visit this city."


"So we don't bother Ms. Rosna and the sisters of the orphanage." said Devan.


"Thank you mas, it turns out that Devan understands Aleta's wishes very well."


"Sister..., kangen..."


"Sir Aleta....,"


Suddenly there was the sound of the cries of the sisters who called out to him, while running to Aleta. Behind them was Rolland with a fluffy smile, walking leisurely, accompanying the five running children.


"Hi.. sisters, thank God, why are you here today." cried Aleta as she lowered her body and spread out her arms to greet them.


The five children immediately hit Aleta with a taste of kangen. A month later Aleta left the home, and had never even visited them. Happy tears involuntarily flowed in the corner of his eyes.


"Hai Koko.., you're kind of fat now, how's the school."


"Hi Siti, Ima, Amir..,"


"Wow Desi cute sister..already higher..,"


Aleta called her sister one by one, then kissed them.Devan and Rolland looked at each other then smiled and felt the happiness of Aleta meeting her sisters.


"Who are you here." asked Aleta as she led the sisters to the backyard terrace.


"Picked up Mr. Olland, use a nice car" said Desi plain with a cedal tone.


Aleta smiled and looked at Rolland.


"Thank you Rolland, today you are happy for your brother" he said.


"The one with the idea, Rolland just runs. So his thanks were revoked, returned to the mas" Devan said, teasing his wife.


"Have, still possessive. Defeat ABG dating alone." said Rolland sewot.


"Objective can be Rolland, as long as not Parno alone." said Aleta.


"Parno. The gardener next door?" ask Rolland.


" Paranoid, He.he.." said Aleta as she closed her mouth.


They then took the five sisters of the orphanage to sit on a rattan chair placed on the back porch.


"You wait here with Devan's sister and Olland's sister" Aleta said, then went into the kitchen looking for Puji.


"Bi.bibi..," cried Aleta called Aunt Puji.


"Yes non," said Bi Puji as he moved towards them.


"Dismantle the Snack dose that we brought, Bi. Bring it to the back porch for a snack for the brothers, all of you please make a drink for them."


"Yes non, the drink has been made Auntie, just taken out."


"Thank you Auntie" Aleta said back to the porch to see her sisters.


"Yes non, equally."


"Our happy step, if Aleta can have children soon. He's been very eloquent on how to treat a child." Devan thought to himself, and subconsciously the corner of his lips was pulled upwards.


Rolland noticed the change in his brother's face, then came the idea to tease him.


"Ehmm. from that smile of his own while looking at his wife, there is the idol of the heart."


"Awww." shouted Rolland feigned pain from being hit in the arm by Devan.


"Why, there is a mosquito on his arm, is it a tabokin help" Devan said without guilt.


Aleta and the sisters looked towards the two of them.


"Oh my God, these are both. It's too late, it's not a shame to see the sisters" Aleta said, jokingly looking at her husband and sister-in-law like a child.


"Ha.ha.ha.., rasain.rasain." ledek Rolland with a big laugh.


Devan himself was also amazed by his own behavior, what because married a much younger couple, so that makes it lately often participate childish.


"Rolland, that's why you weren't brought here." Aleta declares Miss Rosna.


"Mother's coming afternoon. At once accompany ustadz, because we will hold a do.a together. I want this house to be blessed, and it can be a comfortable home" Devan said.


"Aamiin..," they said together.


"What time mas, prayer with him. Then we have to make preparations first" Aleta said.


"Look, everything's set. We just sit around." said Devan.


Aleta almost forgot who her husband's family was. She recalled, their wedding preparations were only one day, but all the party preparations were very well available.

"Mother....Aleta misses mom." exclaimed Aleta as soon as she saw Miss Rosna get off the car. She ran and hugged Miss Rosna tightly. Ms. Rosna hugged Aleta back then kissed Aleta's cheeks and forehead.


"How are you son, I'm missing too." asked Ms. Rosna lovingly.


"Alhamdulillah good mother,"


"Thank God, his embrace was let go first. You're not ashamed of what Ustadz Ramli saw" Ms. Rosna smiled.


Aleta only realized that Miss Rosna came in the afternoon because she was accompanying ustadz who would lead the do.a together. He then saw three men standing behind Miss Rosna. With a blush Aleta said hello to the three ustadz.


"Assalamu alaikum, gentlemen, welcome to our hut. Please forgive me, because I was too emotional to see my mother, so I did not pay attention to the presence of the fathers here" Aleta said while cupping her hands in front of her chest.


"Wa Alaikum salam nak Aleta, we understand son. There is nothing to forgive." replied Ustadz Ramli with a wise smile.


"Mother and Mr. Ustadz have come yes, let's sir, ma'am .. go inside first." exclaimed Devan as he approached the page. Devan shook the hand of the three ustadz and kissed the hand of Miss Rosna.


"Mother is healthy" asked Devan.


"Alhamdulillah nak Devan, as you see. Mother Inshaa Allah is always healthy." replied Ms. Rosna.


Ms. Rosna looks very happy watching Aleta and Devan seem to have a harmonious and happy life. Remembering their marriage occurred because through an arranged marriage initiated by Cokro's grandfather.


"Where are your sisters." asked Miss Rosna.


"They're inside Mom, watching TV. So the sisters were not invited here all the hell Mom. Aleta is missing." Aleta.ask the other orphanage sisters.


"Lha if everyone comes here, who's guarding the parlour. The house must be there to take care of the child. Tomorrow, if you have enough rest, you can see them in the orphanage." Miss Rosna explained.


They all went into the house immediately.
