Not Muhammad and Khadijah

Episode 37's. Tica

Aina did not give up hope.

Various efforts were made to realize Adam's hope.

Even though there are no signs of pregnancy after more than 6 months of her post-pregnancy wine in nature.

But Aina remained optimistic and continued to pray.

Like her usual days, today Aina came home through the intersection of four places Tika sells newspapers.

But not found his little boy who used to run towards his car offers a newspaper to buy.

Out of curiosity, Aina yelled at a boy who was offering his sales tissue.

"Do you know Tika? a 5 or 6 year old girl who used to sell newspapers here? " ask Aina to the boy.

"Know Buk.. Tika has not sold for two days, her grandmother died! " answered the boy.

"Inna lillahi waiina ilaihi.. Okay. thanks yes.this is his money tissue, his change for you only! " said Aina again to the boy.

"Thank you Buk! " her answer then ran away from Aina.

Along the way home Aina thought of the fate of Tika, a child who resembled Ainara.

At night Aina complained about her anxiety about Tika to her husband Gege.

"After Umi, Tika was just living alone with her grandmother. If his grandmother died, who would Bi live with? " ask Aina to her husband.

"Abi doesn't know Umi either... Tomorrow is Sunday, what if we visit his house? Umi know the house? " ask Gege anyway.

"You must not be Bi.. But his grandmother once said that they live near the Red Light Interchange as well, In Gang Buntu right behind Serba Raso's restaurant "Aina answered to her husband.

"Yaudah if that let Umi Gak curious, Tomorrow we go there How? " ask Gege again.

Aina nodded quickly.

"Thank you my dear husband... Super good.. Super soleh's... Super handsome.... Super understanding... I love You!!!!!! " Say Aina while showering Gege with a spoiled kiss.

Gege just laughed happily enjoying his wife's spoiled manner.

Adam who saw the funny behavior of his parents immediately ran over and jumped between the two.

They laugh together too.

The morning after breakfast, Aina and Gege also Adam went to enjoy CFD (Car Free Day) located along Sudirman Pekanbaru road.

They walk, marathon and enjoy the fresh morning air with some Riau people who are present in CFDs.

"Adam wants to play odong-odong Bi..! " His word is on Gege

"OK..!! " Gege answered his Son.

Adam then ride Odong-odong is a children's game vehicle that is usually given to commercial vehicles, which are pedaled like rickshaws.  

The passenger seat is usually in the form of a horse, airplane or mobilan. And usually during the walk the driver will install a popular children's song so that children who ride odong-odong will feel happy and entertained.

Finished playing odong-odong, Aina, Gege and Adam then enjoy snacks sold along Sudirman street.

They ate Aina's favorite Canai Bread.

Returning from the CFD, as Gege promised, they tried to find Tika's residential address.

Right next to the Serba Raso restaurant, there is a small alley called Gang Buntu that only fit for two-wheeled vehicles only.

Gege then parked his car right in front of the restaurant that was not yet open.

Then they walk into the alley looking for Tika's home address.

Not far into the Gang, Gege tried to ask a mother who was waiting in front of his house.

"That's the house, sir. at the right end of the tree in front of Rambutan!! " my mother replied while showing Tika's house.

" Thank you Buk! " gege said before leaving Mother.

"Assynjoke!! " Say Aina when she gets in front of a small house made only of boards and looks partially weathered.

"Waalaikumsalam" Tika's voice answered from inside the house.

"Hubby.. Adam... father?! How do you know Tika's house? " task her with a face.

"When how are you? " ask Aina without answering Tika's question.

"Alhamdulillah healthy buk! But grandma died 3 days ago, "he answered with teary eyes.

Aina understood Tika's feelings, grabbing the little boy in her arms.

"Who lives with now? " ask Gege while gently rubbing Tika's head.

Tika just shook her head.

"Said Mr. RT, 3 more days Tika will be brought to the orphanage after all the paperwork is finished" he replied again still with tears dripping.

Aina was so moved.

She hugged Tika.

Unimaginable by the severity of the pain suffered by a child as small as Tika.

He is not even 6 years old.

But his burden of life was already so heavy.

"Where is Mr RT's house? " ask Gege again.

"There Sir! " tika replied pointing to a semi-permanent house that was fenced in purple wood.

"We go there yuk! " Take Gege to Aina and Tika.

They walked towards Mr. RT's house.

Aina held Tika's hand.

while Adam was in his Abinya's arms.

"What's up, sir? " ask Mr. RT when he sees Gege and Aina in front of his house.

"Assalamualaikum Sir. Meet me Gege, this is my wife Aina. We'd like to ask you a little bit about Tika Pak. It just so happens that my wife is quite familiar with Tika and her grandmother Almarhumah. Tika said in the next three days she will be transferred to the orphanage. Is that right sir? " ask Gege directly at Mr. RT.

" Right Sir. Because He is no longer his family. It was impossible for such a small child to live alone in the house. After all, the house that is left now is only a contract house, so that is why I and the people here agreed to send Tika to the orphanage only" replied Mr. RT also explained.

" If only Tika had we adopted how Sir? " ask Gege again.

Aina was shocked to hear her husband's words.

Tika is too.

Aina shed tears happily hearing her husband's words.

Gege smilingly nodded towards his wife and Tika.

Aina then hugged Tika who was crying happily.

"Of course it is possible, as long as the child is willing. We'll take care of the letters! " answer Mr. RT later.

"Alhamdulillah.. Thanks Sir! " Say Gege again to Mr. RT.

"I should be the one to thank you, sir, because you already want to adopt Tika. Because to be honest Tika is a good boy, but with our condition that is also very difficult like this, so we can not take care of him. Therefore we are very grateful if Father and Mother want to adopt it! " Say Mr. RT also on Gege and Aina.

"If so, From today on we bring Tika to stay with us sir. This is my business card, later for the requirements for the management of his letters please let me know sir! " Say Gege again.

"Well sir" replied Mr. RT.

"When you're a good boy, son.. May you be happy in Tika's new family.. Don't forget the residents of Buntu gang yes! " Say the word to Tika.

Tika nodded with haru.

"Thank you RT!! " he answered while kissing Mr. RT's hand respectfully.

Starting today Tika officially became part of the small family of Aina and Gege.

Adam who is already quite familiar with Tika looks so happy to have an adopted sister.

"Thank you Sir.. Buk..! " said Tika In the Car.

"From today call her Abi and Umi yes. like Adam!" gege replied with a smile to his wife Aina.

"Good Sir.. Emm.. Abi!?" said Tika stammered because she still felt stiff.

Aina smiled happily.

"Call him Abi.. same Umi...!! " Say Adam said to Tika.

they laughed in the car.

"Thank you dear!! " aina said sincerely to her husband.

Gege clasped his wife's hand while nodding and smiling.

They're so happy.
