Replying to Mother's Heartache

Part 4 Sales Preparation

"You have dared to fight me Ipah?, Have I eaten at Mother's house. Everything is not so bad." Father walked out of the house.

Brakes.

'Basar mami' said I in my heart.

"Astaghfirullahhaladzim says. Your father is really outrageous, take his good example don't take a bad example well, son."

"But like him there is no good example that can be taken ma'am" I replied accordingly.

"Now we pray maghrib adzan maghrib already reverberated. Wake up and your sister asks to pray!." Mom told me then I went into the room and did not forget to wake Bayu, wonder this child there are no fuss outside but still sleep soundly.

I walked into my sister's room one-on-one, just held the door handle and was about to call her.

"Babies..!" my sister opened the door.

"Wood, have you prayed?." I asked.

"Yes, my brother who always delays in praying!" he sneered at me and walked past me.

Ih, really.

Then I rushed to carry out the duties of three rakaats and fell down for a moment, I went out of the room and approached Mother who was printing the chicken milk.

"Hhmm kak this good content sirens on sale how well? Mom makes it pretty much, but for her student wallet is good at selling how much?."

"I sell Rp. 3000,00 aja Bu, Mom now make it not too much, make 20 seeds first for each me and Bayu, we have not sold the other." I gave a suggestion to Mom.

I'm afraid the merchandise is not in demand, I pity if the merchandise Mother does not sell while Mother has tried hard to make it.

"Well, I'll tell you, you know the situation and the conditions at school." Finally I helped Mom to make food, so the dawn will just stay in the fry and processed.

"Love, can I advise you?."

"Yes dong Bu, why not try hehe" I replied in a joking jest.

"Look, if your father's family keeps feeding us, if it's not too bad don't fight, not nothing, I don't want you to be stamped ugly by the neighbors for fighting the old man, but if your father's family has gone too far, I will support you against them, you better not respond." said Mother gently.

"I'll follow Mom's advice, I just don't want you to mind much because of my attitude, thank you Mom for reminding me." I replied.

It did not feel like Mom and I were struggling in the kitchen for almost an hour, there were three fried tigers and also two types of cakes that Bayu and I will bring tomorrow to school.

"It's over, Mom what if you say tonight Mom sleeps in my room? I'm afraid Mom was hurt by Dad." I told Mom who was washing the container used in production.

"Can you not be confused if you sleep with Mom?."

"No ma'am, let's go to the room!." take me after I finish washing the dishes and set the dishes to the shelf, Mom and I went into my room.

The house we place now is quite spacious, there are 4 rooms where one guest room while Bayu is on the 2nd floor.

"If Mom and Dad get divorced, do you mind, son?" asked Mom hesitantly.

"Me and Bayu did not mind if Mom decided to divorce Dad. I don't want to see Mom being tortured like this by Dad and his family. I'm very supportive if Mom decides to split up, "I answer with the excitement of money, instead I want my parents to just divorce.

"But how could your father change? I honestly love your Dad so much and I hope your Dad will change." Mom shed her tears.

"Mother if you love someone you have to use logic, let alone say that Dad and his family have been like that since I was a Kindergarten, and now I almost want 18 years old Mom, Are there any signs of Dad changing? Isn't it Mom?" I replied in a slightly emotional tone, not that I was disrespectful to the biological mother myself, but I was not completely finished with what Mom said.

"I totally agree that Mom decided to divorce Dad! rather than having to look at the mother who was always hurt by his father and family."

"We should sleep, if your Mother and Father are not in love, God will separate us, God will not wrongly give a wrong destiny to His servant." My mother replied, turning her back to sleep.

"Astaghfirulloh," I pacified my own heart against this Mother, I promised myself that I would not love a man of this size.

After a few hours of thinking about Mom and Dad's fate, my eyes started to get heavy and I finally fell asleep.

***

At 04:00 in the morning I woke up to the sound of the alarm I set, beside me there was no mother. I also sat down for a while to collect my life, after feeling collected I went straight to the bathroom and rushed to Mother in the kitchen.

"Mom, aren't we going to fry it?" I asked Mom.

"No, you leave at 6. I just started frying too." Mom said, Mom was in charge of frying and I wrapped up the finished cake last night.

"Daddy didn't come home all night, Mom?." I asked Mom. Not to forget also I chat with Mom while eating cakes and fried foods that taste very delicious.

"No, it's your father's habit that the storm must have run to grandma's house." Sahut.

I also just nodded to justify what Mom said, Dad is the type of man who if there is a problem always gathers in the armpits of his own mother.

"You wake up Bayu gih, Adhan dawn has been reverberating tell him to pray in the mosque." said Mother, I also did not obey what Mother's orders said.

Geck...

Geck...

Geck...

"Wake up!." I knocked on the door of Bayu's room, but there was absolutely no reply from my younger brother.

Tired of waiting in front of the door I finally opened the door to Bayu's room which turned out not in the key.

Kriee.

"Woodu get up!" I said approaching Bayu, Bayu was seen wearing a blanket up to the neck.

"Hey, Bayu wake up!." When I touched Bayu's body his temperature was very high even my sister was half shivering.

"Astaghfirulloh Bayu Why are you? Mom Mother! The fever is so high, Mom!" I was screaming for Mom in the kitchen.
