RAINBOW FOR HURRICANE HANS

ANNIVERSARY

I moved to Asni's house in her village. Kampung bu Asni is still on the same island just different provinces. If we had been on the south side of the island, now my son and I would have lived on the north side of the island, in the village of Asni.

The trip to the village of Asni bu we traveled by road using a bus, 4 days trip we finally arrived there.

Asni's house is quite large, but unfortunately not taken care of because the children of Asni's mother are all married and no one wants to live in that house. The house is mostly made of bamboo and wood. Actually Asni wanted to give this house to me, but I refused because there was no right to this house.

I was thinking if I was going to buy this house instead of nobody staying. If I buy it automatically I will no longer hesitate to live in this house.

We got off the bus, I took the keys to the house, I read the prayer before entering hoping our lives were better here, I slowly turned the key. When entering the house, the house is quite dusty and many cobwebs there. There's nothing here but a mat rolled up in the room. House bu Asni only has one room, kitchenette and one bathroom, the floor has been cemented but still rough, only in the room that has been ceramic it was only half.

I opened all the doors and windows while cleaning the house, I saw that behind the house there was a kitchen for a wood stove. I thought, I better cook with the stove alone, in addition to saving the taste of food is also much better.

After all the rooms were clean, Hans and I decided to go to bed. Fortunately for me because Hans was not fussy when traveling or when he arrived at this house earlier.

.

Our first morning at Asni's house, I woke up very early to draw water in the well behind the house. I started washing our dirty clothes on the way, because if Hans wakes up later we'll go to the market to buy our things here.

Last night I was so worried that Hans couldn't sleep because we were sleeping on the floor on a carpet that I had covered with blankets so that it wouldn't get too cold.

''Good morning, new residents here?'' ask a mother who is drawing well water, maybe she is my neighbor here because on the left and right side of Asih there is a house as well.

''For ma'am, yes ma'am I live here, I just arrived last night'' I replied as I continued to wash.

''I am Miss Ratna, my house is on the right side of this house'' he said kindly.

''I'm Rainbow ma'am, I live here with my son ma'am, he's still sleeping''

After my laundry was done, I went into the house, and I saw Hans still asleep. I felt guilty for him making him have to live with me.

''Ma'am, I want to ask you where is the market?'' ask me on Ms. Ratna who was washing clothes in the mouth.

''Hans's mom wants to go black? If you want to be with me later, I happen to want to go to the market, said Ms. Ratna.

''Mom, thank you, '' answered me.

.

I washed my face and changed my clothes and Hans's. We'll go to the market to buy our needs here. I went to the market with my neighbor Ratna, in the public transport car, Ratna told me a lot about the Asih house that I live in now.

Ms. Ratna said, the house has not been lived in for a long time, the house has also been given Asih bu to some residents but they all refused to live there he said afraid because at home that's the husband of Asih bu died.

.

On arrival in the market I started shopping for our needs. I buy household furniture there is a mattress, plastic wardrobe, 6-piece plate, 6-piece glass, 12-piece spoon, 2-piece bowl, thermos for hot water, pot, pan, pan, belanga and bucket and basin to store water in the bathroom tsk forgot I bought also dipper.

After that I also bought some groceries, and ingredients to make a sponge, who knows if there will be someone interested in me making a cake.

I was waiting for Ratna's mom at the grocery store. Ms. Ratna was looking for a rental car to drive us home because our groceries were pretty much impossible to use.

An open tub car drove us home, I was quite happy because the money from the sale of cakes that I saved so far was enough for the needs of both of us, even still quite a lot.

.

I immediately tidied up all the groceries when I arrived home. We had breakfast earlier in the market so there was energy to clean up. Ms. Ratna and her son and husband helped me get my mattress and closet down from the car to the room. I thanked them, I gave them money to buy him a cigarette but he refused to say we should help each other as neighbors. I say a lot of thanks to them.

''Mom, are we going to stay here?'' hans asked me.

''Yes son, do you not like it?'' my many.

''No ma'am, I like the important thing I've always been with mom, I don't need anyone else as long as there's mom, I don't even need dad anymore, dad doesn't love us either''

My heart ached to hear his words soon I embraced my poor son. Our fate was almost the same in childhood, only I was left by my parents forever.

.

''Ma'am, tomorrow we can deliver the cake to our school, tomorrow there is a meeting for the parents of the students, can you make it?'' ask a mother when I'm sick of buying sugar.

''By ma'am, how many do you want to order?'' my many.

''150 pieces, can I kid?''

''Can ma'am, then excuse me ma'am, I have to go to the market to buy cake ingredients'' I said goodbye to the mother and the shop owner.

When I arrived at home, I called Hans, I changed his clothes and we went to the market.

.

I'm grateful that the school is quite satisfied with my cake, I received quite a lot of money from the school because they appreciate my cake 5000/fruit. Though I used to sell it only 1500/fruit, indeed what I made this time was a bit bigger, actually I refused but the principal said it was a fortune for my Son so I can not refuse.

My life and Hans we went through like everyone else, although sometimes he still used his papa, I just replied that his papa was busy working. I also never expected Hans to come again, never once did he call me when I never changed my phone number.

I have also bought Asni's house, although it has not been fully paid off.

.

Today's Hans' birthday, I'm having a little thanksgiving at home. I invited the neighbors.

''Excuse me mama Hans, there are people who are looking for a mother outside said a neighbor who helped me cook. I hurriedly washed my hands and met the guest in question.

I walked to the front of the house, I found two tall men standing behind me.

''Good afternoon sir, how can I help you?'' I said to them.

The two turned around at the same time, my eyes round seeing both my guests, it turned out to be Hans and Indra. I immediately turned around wanting to go back inside the house but Hans immediately hugged me. As hard as I can let go of his embrace but what power I have will not be worth it. Hans was crying while hugging me tightly.

''I'm sorry.I'm sorry baby, I've made a big mistake with you, I'm sorry' said Hans as he continued to sob.

''Mas, please let me go, I don't want people to misunderstand me'' I said softly. No longer do I feel warm in his arms, which there I feel uncomfortable.

''Papa... has papa come home from work?'' Hans came to us.

''Work?'' ask Hans.

''Yes, I said that if papa had finished work papa would come here''

Hans looked at me, I just kept quiet, I saw my son had brought him into the house. I just exhaled slowly while following them in.

''Mama's friend, this is Hans's papa, handsome isn't it?'' hans said he introduced his father to the neighbors who were helping me pack food for the event.

''Papa, today is Hans' birthday you know, papa must join the event of the same candle blow cut cake yes, all this time Hans just accompanied by mama''' my son said to his father.

I passed towards the kitchen, the mothers there looking at me with smiling faces.

''Hans's mother, it's true that his father Hans, is handsome like holywood actors'' said one mother.

I just smiled and sat down to help them. The neighbors still admired Hans. Ms. Ratna came to me.

''Your son is with your son and husband, it is not good to leave them, even if they are hostile do not show in front of the children'' said Ms Ratna whispering in my ear.

''Okay ma'am, I'm sorry to go there for a minute' I said.

''Go, let go of your longing that you haven't seen for a long time said one mother. If only she knew the problems between me and Hans.

''Mom, here. Papa said, papa will also stay with us here ma'am. Later papa will be bobo also we are ma'am, so there will be no bad people who dare to approach mother''' said my son.

I stared at Hans. It was as if he wanted to stay this was his home. Looking at my gaze he just smiled and hugged his son back.
