A widow who for five years lived a straight life almost without gossip. Maybe because of environmental influences that are not so close to the crowds and neighbors. In addition, Puspa always take care of his association, out of the house just to be busy buying materials selling his canteen, household needs. Also go to a lecture event as well as some invitations of pilgrimage as well as grief. The rest of it, the activity slabs once.
His status actually never invited some villagers to offer and advise for him to remarry, because he married Dehen Suhardi when he was 19 years old. But not immediately get children, it took 5 years until they have Nandang Batuah. When her husband died, she was 34 years old. So now he is 39 years old, of course still including young for the size of a widow with two children.
For reasons of getting married because of economic demands to continue their lives was actually only natural he did. But, I don't know. Puspa felt quite happy living with his two children. So even though there are many offers and some bachelor and widower men want to approach him and want to interfere with him, he always does not give reproach.
The order from Camat ma'am has been completed successfully and smoothly. Tatik is satisfied and now has additional recommendations if there is a celebration or impromptu event in terms of making snacks and food for office affairs.
“Nan. We both choose clothes that are important for us to take to a new place. So that our place of residence will not be full of things that do not matter.” Puspa's advice to his two children.
“Iya mak.” Reply Nandang who actually feel at home living in the school environment.
“Mak... does mom have a lot of money?” Ask Andini who is more calm for the business of asking.
“Why ask so?”
“Ya. Try to buy a motorcycle, mom. Look forward to the mother selling further and further to the school cafeteria.” Andini's Advice.
“Halaaah your reason Ndin. Just say later want to bond with the same mother if to her school.”
“Eh. It has nothing to do with the times, Ndin wants to go to school, anyway every day also Ndin everywhere in bonceng brother. uwwwwweeek.” His tongue stuck out at Nandang.
“Huh..” Furious Nandang justifies ucapab Andini.
“Ya.. later after we move, mom try to find info maybe there are those who sell used motorcycles that are still worth using.?”
“Horeeee... have motor.” Girang Andini's. The truth has long been arrogant to see his mother everywhere just using his bicycle fist.
“Finding that info does not mean buy, dodoool.” Anxious Nandang on Andini who is already a pleasure.
“Nan... Don't be rude to your ade when you talk.”.
“Home mak.” Answer Nandang quickly. And their hands keep working start packing whatever they will bring to move immediately.
“Wah, there are also many marriage photos of same mother father.” Tukas Andini when his hand found a box that did store some collection of photos of his wedding with Dehen.
“Daddy handsome ya mak.” Praise Andini rubbing a photo of the father that he did not have long. At that time, he was still in 2nd grade SD.
“Yes, like a sister. Yes mak.” Nandang praised himself.
“Tuh... water in the cooking pot itself without on the stove.” Puspa.
“Kok can mak..?” Ask Nandang.
“Iya can. kayak you praise yourself.” Kekeh Puspa welcomed his two children.
“Mak... Why is Dehen Suhardi's father named? And it is rarely the same as the people in our village?” Suddenly Nandang was curious.
“Oh... what does mak mean?”
“Dehen means strong. If Suhardi it means charismatic, but it is not from Dayak.” Puspa clearly on them.
“Oh, have you ever been to Kalimantan?”
“But did not get time. Your father only once returned to Kalimantan after graduating from college, just stepping on the ancestral land, because your grandfather was married to a Javanese. So to tanahan here.” Puspa Story.
“If our name, does it also indicate the identity of the ancestor also mak?” Tanya Nandang was rather curious.
“Of course. Nandang is Sundanese. It means boy. While Batuah uses the Kalimantan Dayak language, meaning Lucky, cheap windfall, can also be interpreted as a blessing. So Nandang Batuah is a lucky boy, just like that said your father first.” Papar Puspa's.
“If Ndin?” Ask Andini yak lose curious?”
“If Andini has two meanings. In Javanese it means obedience. In the Dayak language it means sister. If Maharati attract people who are good ethics, polite and obedient as well. So Andini Maharati is a kindly sister.” Papar Puspa remembers their father's handwriting when their son was a child.
“Waaaw.. meaning good all yes mak.” Praise Andini proud.
“Of course. A name is a prayer, not just a sign of a calling. Names can also affect a person's destiny. So in terms of naming children should be thought carefully. After all, humans are given 9 months to conceive. Of course, it will be long enough to choose and ensure the name that will be embedded in the baby who will certainly be expected to be able to lift human dignity and dignity.”Puspa continued his wobble.
“Hmm.. so mak.”
“Before choosing the name of the child, what should be wary also is in terms of choosing a partner with whom we married.”
“Important yes mak?” Ask Andini.
“Very important.”
“Ah... later only mak. Andini new seventh grade mak, do not understand what a couple and married.” Cuek.
“Hahaaa.. yes also. But from now on, my mom reminds me that it's okay too. Your brain is still not full aliahs are still loose. Later to hunt late, mom said it. Suddenly my mother is senile, you're your kasian. No longer have a father, have a mother as if never gave up.” Kekeh Puspa's.
“But a couple aka soul mate is a secret of God anyway. Most importantly, you have to be a good person. Because a good man must be good. Hang out with good people, so that the possibility of you being a good person will be influenced by the environment around you.”
“Hooaaam... Ndin sleepy when you hear your mother talk that Ndin does not understand, mak.” Kilah Andini who is not old enough to be talked to about a mate and whatever that smells of marriage and life.
“Makin don't understand if it is heard not Ndin.” Tukas Nandang who does not like Andin like not wanting to hear the upbringing of his mother.
“Ya... women should wait for their soul mate only. While Nan's men, his responsibilities were heavier. Being the head of the family. Who became a priest, protected the family, made a living making decisions as well. But what is the power of fate like mother now. All the duties of the head of the family must be the responsibility of a mother.” Puspa suddenly shed his tears, remembering the husband who had left him. Nandang turned away from his seat, then hugged Puspa. Rubbing the mother's shoulders, as if to give strength to the strong woman who has given birth also doubles, as the housewife and the head of their household.
Seriate…
