Ning who was laughing suddenly remembered something. He also stopped laughing.
“Eh, – talk why the face kudanil like bonyok is that? The edge of his lips is also like a wound ..” he said who just realized.
“Arhhh .. what care I .. mending I sleep again ...” Ning went back to Nana's bed. Just as he sat down and was about to lie down, the sound of stomach rumbling back sounded.
The krukk krukk…
“Yeah, I have not eaten anything after lunch...” he said while wiping his stomach feels hungry. He wakes up and leaves Nana's room.
After closing the door Ning looked here and there like he was paying attention to the situation in the house. He who stood in the middle room, seemed confused between going to the front room or directly to the dining room.
“Kok quiet very anyway? What was it on sleep? Em, do I ask permission first to Madam Kinanti if I want to eat? But ... not good also to wake people to sleep ..” murmurnya dialogue alone.
Ning finally went to the dining room. And it turns out that there was Athar sitting holding something pressed against his face.
“Ih, why is the kudanil there too?” grumbled Ning with a slow voice.
He was about to turn around, but his hungry stomach made him keep his feet in the dining room.
“Master Om what are you doing here?” tanyanya Ning who then approached Athar.
“Ngompres face ...” answer by attaching an ice cube compress wrapped in a cloth on his cheek.
“Only Mr Om again fever?” he then sat down in different chairs, making him sit face to face at a rectangular dining table.
“Since when did the fever person compressed his face, Ning?” Athar asked back.
“Keep why?” tanya Ning was curious.
“Having beaten people ...”
“Teaching people who bonyok face Mr Om? Kicked or beaten?” Ning doubted Athar's remarks.
“Initially beat each other up ..” he said admitting.
Kruk kruk kruk …
“Whose stomach is that sounding?” ning asked in surprise, until she touched her own stomach.
“Of course my stomach ...” said Athar ketus.
“Hah?” Ning was surprised to hear that.
“Huh hah hah hah!!! It's all because of you!” Athar now blames Ning.
“Loh, why am I to blame?” ning said she didn't accept it.
“Where is my dinner?” said collect.
“What?” Ning just remembered.
“You forgot or pretended to forget?” Athar looked resentfully at Ning.
“Hehehehehe ..” Ning is even a crybaby.
“Quick cooking me something, I'm so hungry!!” her word.
“Ogah .. cook it yourself there!” reject Ning.
“Alright, the photo stayed I uploaded ...” Athar pulled a cell phone out of his shirt.
“Ihhh, you are usually threatened .. Yes yes I made something.”
Ning is forced to go to the kitchen and cook food for Athar who is waiting for him at the dinner table. She also cooked for herself.
“Nih ...” Ning served a bowl filled with his cooking and he brought another bowl for him.
“What kind of food is this?” Athar as if insulting Ning cuisine.
“Mi instant egg and mustard .. only that can be cooked quickly ... Have just eaten from hunger pda ..” Ning sat down to eat the instant noodles she had cooked anyway.
Athar who actually did not want to eat, was forced to eat Ning's cooking, because indeed he was already very hungry. The two ate without talking until they both finished their meals.
“Enak kan ...” said Ning who just finished drinking.
“Lumayan make a stomach wedge.”
“Lumayan is very fast to end ...” said Ning, but Athar did not pay attention to it and instead played his phone.
“Master Om ...” Call Ning.
“Hmmm ...” said without turning his head because his eyes remained focused on the screen of his phone.
“Nana that call Mr Om Dady or Papa anyway?” Ning, who had been curious for a long time, finally dared to ask Athar about it.
“Dady.” the answer is short.
“But sometimes Nana calls Papa?” ask Ning astonished.
“That's different again.”
“Hah? Meaning?” Ning was getting confused.
“Nana calls me Dady and the one called Papa yes the fucking Singgih ...” Athar said.
“What? How can?” Ning was surprised.
“Emang he's the father, how else?”
“Hah? That means Nana's son Bu Ros is the same Doctor Singgih? I think Nana's her son Mr. Om same Mrs Rosmala ..” Ning revealed the results of his own thinking.
“What?” now that it was Gilran Athar who was shocked, he immediately looked resentfully at Ning.
“Are you not sane? Brother Ros is a sister-in-law who is like a mother to me, who do I really have children with him? My brother is still alive ..” his cerocos is upset.
“Nana's policy is to call Mr. Om Dady, while Mrs Ros is called onty mama ...” Ning explained the reason.
“Do you not know that in English, onty means aunt?” teasek Athar.
“Ya know lah. .. I did not bego-bego very times .. But I call it onty mama .. Especially when I brought Nana to the house, Mrs Ros was very angry and sounded Nana from the big lady .. so I speculated myself ...” Nin said at length.
“Iya .. crazy speculation!!” sindir Athar's.
“Regularly time .. don't use soda!!” Ning snorted in annoyance, yet he was still very curious. “So Nana is whose child is it?”
“Massage my back first .. so sore ...” Athar instead diverted the conversation and charged his wages.
“Ogah ..” Ning twisted her eyeballs and poked her lips.
“Fotoya____” Athar wiggles his phone while smiling cunningly.
“Ck ... Yes Yes ...” Ning could no longer refuse Athar's orders. He got up and stomped his feet, then walked until he stood right behind Athar who was sitting on the chair.
“Kok stand aja .. massage dong ...” Athar protest that never felt someone massaging him.
“Iya, bauble ...” Ning also started her massage violently.
“Aww... who sincerely dong masijat his ... Don't be rude so ...” Athar protest, Ning also slowed his massage.
“It was too slow, like not massaged but just rubbed ...”
“Mouthful protest anyway !!!”
“I sent the picture to Kak Ros nih ...” anacaman back issued.
“Iya yes bavel ...” Ning finally massaged Athar properly, but in fact he was eager to claw Athar's face and plunge his hair bald blindly.
“Nah so dong ... good also massage ...” he said praising because he had started to enjoy Ning massage, until his eyes brushed sticky.
Ning who was feeling irritated just flicked her lips without answering. His lips were like kamit's cursing Athar, but making no sound. He only massaged for five minutes, then stopped him.
“Kok stop?” Athar returns to protest.
“My hands are sore, anyways I have to clean up our food waste ...” he said then melengos and took their used dirty bowls and glasses to clean in the kitchen.
Not long after Ning came back and sat down at the original spot.
“Master Om, why haven't you come home yet? Not living in an apartment?” tanyanya.
“I stay here, because it is impossible to leave you with Nana alone..”.
“Hah? Both? Yeselah .. here there is also Mbak Kinanti, Bu Asri the same Mr. doctor time ...”
“Doctor who? Doctor Daniel, hahaha ...” taunted Athar who remembered that Ning thought that Daniel was his son's doctor Bu Asri.
“Ihh .. You are !!! of course Doctor Singgih ..”
“It turns out that if you have slept you are really like kebo .. Until there was an ambulance just do not know ...” said Athar.
“Hah? Ambulance?”
“Iya, Bu Asri's condition does not allow to be treated at home .. hence he was taken to the hospital ...”
“What? Oh my goodness that bad condition Bu Asri?” Ning looks worried.
“Let's rest easy, Kinanti has informed me that Bu Asri has improved after getting handling.”
“Thankful ...” Ning breathed a sigh of relief, the two suddenly fell silent.
”Master Om ...” call Ning
“Hmmm ...”
“Actually what happened anyway? Mr. Om said that Doctor Singgih was Nana's father .. But he kicked Nana out of his room ..” Ning returned to the initial discussion.
Athar took a long breath. His face suddenly changed. Instead of answering, he went back to thinking about something.
“Hey, Mr Om... ko is silent anyway? Don't know what if I've been to the maximum...” Ning felt greget because she never got an answer from her curiosity.
“Nana's son Diandra and Singgih ..” Athar said.
“Diandra?” ask Ning astonished.
“So Nana's nephew Mr Om?” tanya Ning made sure.
“Hmmm .. But I love her so much and already think of her like my own daughter .. Because Singgih never paid attention to her.”
“If Nana's son is doctor Singgih and her sister is Mr Om, why did she throw Nana out of her room?” Ning was getting confused and astonished.
“Singgih ignored Nana because Diandra died after giving birth to her. He considers Nana as the cause of death of his beloved wife and refers to Nana as the child of the unlucky bearer. Because after Diandra's funeral, Singgih was fired from the hospital and clinic where he worked.” Athar explained the thing that kept Ning wondering.
“What?” Ning was surprised to hear that.
Suddenly he fell silent with his head down. Ning who was so enthusiastic wanted to know, now there seemed to be a sense of regret for finding out too deeply. It was as if she felt the sadness Nana felt. He has no parents since he was a child.
Athar, too, looked sad after saying his last words. Both of them were silent in their thoughts for a while.
Athar got up from his seat. “It's late .. You should sleep, Ning.”
“Hmmm ..” Ning nodded his head, he got up.
“You just sleep in Kinanti's room, I'll sleep in the living room.”
“I will accompany Nana ...” said Ning in a limp tone.
Ning then left the dining room, as well as Athar. Ning went back into Nana's room. He stepped slowly so as not to disturb the sleep of the little fairy. Ning lay down next to Nana to sleep.
“Your love Nana ... all this must be heavy for you .. But you are more fortunate, because there are still many people who love you ...” softly while rubbing Nana's head, so that no tears just drip.
***
The next day, after subuhan Ning did the household chores, from cleaning up, cleaning up to cooking. He bathed Nana and prepared her for school.
“Fairy sister, Where's Dady?” ask Nana who did not see Athar's whereabouts.
“Em, I think I came home at dawn ...”
“Dady will invite Nana to eat ice cream ...” Nana takes the appointment.
“It will still be morning ... later eat his ice cream after the little elf came home from school, yes ..”
“Iya ...” nod Nana who now always obey the words Ning.
“Ayok we eat first ...” Ning then took Nana to the dining room.
“Grandma same onty same papa where?”
“Em, they went to the hospital .. Today Big Brother who will accompany Nana school also play.”
“Horeee ...” Nana looks happy, because she thinks that Kinan and Singgih do work in the hospital. So he doesn't ask much more.
“Then we eat first yes ... Nana should eat a lot ...”
“Iya ..” Nana nodded and she ate with excitement.
Ting
Ning's phone rang indicating there was an incoming message.
Kudanil Mesum
“Please take care of Nana as long as Kinan keeps Bu Asri in the hospital.”
“Sopir will take you to school.”
“I'm doing a lot of work in the office.”
“I've deposited some money on the driver for the handle.”
Ning
“Iya.”
Ning only answered briefly. He then put his phone back in his pants pocket. He takes Nana to school and waits for her there.
After Nana finishes school, she bails out an appointment to buy ice cream. Ning also bought some ice cream that Nana chose from a mini market. They brought home his ice cream and ate it at home.
Nana who after school continued to play with Ning, finally fell asleep. Ning also took care of Nana's scattered toys and tidied them up.
“What is this?” Ning found a letter on her letterhead that read Nana's school name on the study table. He opened and read the letter.
Ting Nong's …
The sound of the house bell rang. Ning rushed forward to open the door with the letter still in her hand.
Czech …
Ning opened the door, and it was seen someone standing before him. The handsome, tall man made Ning stunned to see him.
“It turns out that doctor Singgih is very handsome .. Just this time I saw his face clearly ...” muttered Ning inwardly.
“Excuse me...” said that made Ning aghast.
“Iy Yes ...” Ning also shifted from the door goal and let Singgih enter through it just like that.
“Loh ... how much is his cheek like bruise?” ask in the heart.
“Do not overnight doctor Singgih who fought with the mangeil ..” he said guessing. He closed the door and locked it, then sat down in the guest chair.
“It looks like I've seen doctor Singgih before .. but where is it?” he murmured while remembering.
Ning stood back up as he saw Singgih returning from his room with a backpack.
“How is Bu Asri?” Ning ventured to speak to Singgih.
Stop stopping his steps.
“It has improved, but it still needs to be treated in the hospital.”
“Thank God then .. Nana just went to bed.” said Ning.
Singih walked back to the exit and ignored Ning's words.
“What are you going to go? Don't you care about your child at all? He is alone here and I cannot keep him continuously, because I also have to go home,” Ning said pretending to be leaving.
Stay silent at the door. Ning then walked up to him.
“Yesterday I saw Nana standing in front of your room door ... And she wanted to give this to you ..” Ning held out the letter she had in her hand. Just take the letter and open it and read it.
Stop folding back the letter and thrusting it again at Ning to be returned.
“Just give this to Daniel ...”
“What? Who is Daniel? You are the parent of Nana ... And the school event is intended for the child and his parents.” Instead of receiving the letter, Ning questioned Singgih's response.
“I can't attend.”
“Why?” ask Ning again.
“I have to go to work.”
“Because of work or do you not care about Nana?” Ning ventured to look at the man standing before her. Even though he had to take his head off, because Singgih was much taller than him.
“Nana is your biological child, your flesh and blood .. But why do you treat it like this?” he said with a sharp look.
“Pity him .. every sleep always delirious calling his papa .. He's lost his mother since he was born, and now you're the only biological parent he has.”
“You are only strangers and guests in this house .. So there is no need to interfere in my family affairs ...” he said with great affirmation.
“I know I am a stranger .. But I can feel what Nana is feeling ..” Ning sighed for a moment to keep herself calm.
“I know how it feels to be considered a pesky carrier since I was born, and it is very painful because until I grow up I always consider myself this brings bad luck to everyone close to me...” said Ning and then bowed his head.
“I was also not accepted by my father since I was born, because my mother died shortly after giving birth to me .. Until I was 6 years old, my father was only able to accept me … You know why?” Ning looked back into Singgih's silent eyes.
“Because deep down, he loved and cherished me as his own flesh and blood … And I think that's what happened to you too ..”
Stop looking back at Ning's eyes that began to glaze over. He threw away his face and stepped back to leave. Just as he pressed the door handle, Ning spoke again.
“I'm sure if your late wife is still around, she won't let her hard-earned child fight by betting her life be treated like this, please dig your wife's grave and you will find her crying blood seeing her daughter ignored even wasted by her own biological father ..”
“Please .. don't let Nana suffer a lifelong downturn for thinking of herself as an unlucky carrier for others .. She's your daughter, your flesh and blood and she loves you so much ..”
Ning could not help but hold back her tears that fell down just like that. It seemed to be a flashback to what he had experienced in his life.
“She has lost her mother, and now you are her biological parents the only one she has .. Don't make her feel like an orphan ..” Ning refrained from crying in that place, even though her tears did not stop dripping.
“Maybe now you don't want to accept it .. But never regret if one day when you want to admit it, but he rejects you and prefers to question others who give him love and affection.. It will definitely hurt more...”.
Ning then left just like that leaving Singgih who was still silent in silence after hearing all of Ning's words. He seems to have been unable to hold back his feelings that are very sad considering everything that had happened to him and now happened to Nana.
He just followed his footsteps where he took him away with tears, but still held his voice so that his stuffing could not be heard by others.
Now he stands in front of the sink where washing dishes in the kitchen. His tears did not stop flowing, but he still held his lips so as not to make a sound.
Suddenly there was the hand of someone who touched his shoulder from behind. Ning who sensed the touch immediately wiped away the water trace of her tears and turned around.
That person smiled at Ning and both of their eyes looked at each other.
Grepp …
Ning immediately hugged the man. And her tears spilled again.
“Cry if it can make you relieved ...” he said softly.
“Huaaaaaaa .. Huaaaaaa ..”
It was unexpected that Ning actually vented her grief by crying as hard as she could in the person's arms.
