Episode 22: Saka Ask for a Gift



“Mah! Mom!” Call Saka after the prayer with Hana.


‘’Iya, Dad. Why ?” Ask Hana.


“Saka kangen same Ayah” Saka about to cry.


Hana who heard him had been silent for a while, since his arrival yesterday from Jakarta Saka continued to ask when his father came home or said Saka missed his father very much. Hana can only explain Andre is working to buy a toy that Saka likes. The answer of the 4-year-old child made Hana very surprised and did not expect her child to grow up.


“Saka don't want any more toys! Saka wants Daddy to sleep with Mamah Saka.” Her request.


Hana tries to answer Saka as wisely as possible by asking him to continue praying to Allah so that his father, Andre, can meet with Saka as soon as possible.


“Mah, Saka brags again birthday.” Saka said after praying with Hana.


“Saka want what gift from Mamah ?” Ask Hana.


“Saka want to meet Dad Teh Shinta.”


Hana just fell silent. It is impossible to answer no but it is also very difficult to answer yes to Saka's request. Hannah replied that if Saka prayed earnestly to Allah, then Allah would grant all of Saka's requests. Saka just nodded and prayed once more to ask for the gift from Allah.

During the day, Ratih and Hana are eating their lunch while Saka is playing at Ovi's house. Hana tells about Saka's request that Andre come for her birthday with Shintanya Tea. Hearing that Ratih of course immediately refused, let alone hearing Shinta's name made him very furious.


“Teteh totally disagree, Saka is still a child he was talked to once also definitely already know.” Obviously Ratih.


“But Saka kangen same Mas Andre.”


“Hana. Now, you want to invite those diseases to your home ?”


“Hana can't think of Hana herself, Saka is more important than Hana's feelings right now. Yang Saka knows now he misses his father's figure a lot.”


“Now keep asking you, Are you up for ?”


Hana's speechless.


“Hana... My dear little girl is equally adept. Tetuh do not want to be adept teth this beautiful cry again.”


Hana smilingly looked at Ratih, the words spoken from Ratih really comforted her.

On the other hand, Saka is playing with Ikbal and Viola but Saka looks very moody making Ikbal and Viola ask why Saka is so moody.


“Saka kangen same father Saka.” Saka Stories.


“I know!!!” Ikbal suddenly remembered something.


Quickly Ikbal, the five-year-old was sneaking towards the living room.


“Kak Ikbal, we want to do ?” saka asked, whispering behind Ikbal.


Viola who still didn't understand anything just followed along walking around cheerfully. Ikbal glanced to the right and to the left to check the whereabouts of Ovi mama. Ovi is seen cooking in the kitchen, knowing that Ikbal hastily picked up his mother's smartphone.


“This disposable phone!” get Ikbal.


Saka still doesn't understand.


“Kak Ikbal if kangen the same papa Kak Ikbal likes the phone diem-diem pack this.”


Saka nodded.


Ikbal who can read by spelling directly looking for contacts named “Kak Andre” after meeting Ikbal hastily pressed the phone button.


“Halo..” Icbal.


“Hello... Ovi ?”


“Halo...” Ikbal again.


“Ikbal ? What's up Ikbal ? Mama where ?”


Ikbal who heard Andre's voice hurriedly gave his phone to Saka.


“Dad..”


“Saka ?”


“Dad..”


“What's up, son ? how can you call Dad ?”


“Saka kangen, Dad...” Saka was about to cry.


“Later Dad came home yes, Nak.”


“Tomorrow!”


“Insyaallah.”


“Besok birthday Saka, Father Pulanggg.


“Iya, Son. Saka want what gift from dad ?”


“Teh Shinta.”


Andre surprised.


"Dad Can bring Shinta Tea, right?"


Saka nodded happily.


“Appointment ?”


“Iya... Father promise.”


Suddenly Ovi who heard a voice from the family room shouted at Ikbal.


“Kak Ikbal! Main hape mamah again ?” Shouted Ovi.


Panicked Ikbal and Saka instantly turned off the phone and immediately ran into the playroom again.

In Jakarta, Shinta who had just returned from campus met Andre who had been faithfully waiting for him in front of the gate. Shinta immediately went in and told Andre to run his car immediately.


“Mas! Already Shinta said no need to pick up Shinta.”


“I also said right, I still want to pick you up.”


“But on campus no one knows about our relationship, later if someone misunderstands how ?”


“What's the reason?”


“Shinta is not ready. Shinta's friends also have nothing Shinta told you. But Shinta knows, Shinta's stomach also wants to grow so Shinta must immediately tell them that Shinta is married.”


Andre stroked Shinta's head gently.


“If you're not ready, it's okay. Slowly aja. There's still a month or two left. Remember what the doctor said, don't mind much.”


Shinta nodded. “Iya... Shinta didn't have much of a thought. Shinta even seneng Mas Andre ngijinin Shinta for college.”


“Oh yes.. earlier Saka called.”


“Saka ?”


“Iya, tomorrow Saturday is Saka's birthday. He asked Mas to make dateng.”


“Then, Mas of course have to come. Saka must have missed his father a lot.”


“And he also wants you to come.”


“I ? She still wants me ?”


“Iya... All of us met with Hana to talk about everything. You want ?”


Shinta nodded confidently. “Iya, Shinta would like.”


Suddenly Shinta's phone vibrates, Shinta immediately answers her phone which turns out to be from Ikmal.


“Halo, Mall ? What's up ?”


“Lo home ?” ask Ikmal.


“Yes, it's again on the road. Why ?”


“Lo forgot today we have a meeting ?”


“Oh yes, I forgot.”


“Lo why the hell is it always gini lately ? You have a problem ?”


“Sorry, Mall. Da... Lately I have a lot of business so many are not taken care of.”


“Now Where are you ? Want me to pick it up ? Do you know that today was a massive meeting ? Even though Lo has resigned as the chairman of the implementation at least Lo still has to join the meeting right.”


Shinta nodded.


“Yes, I'm there now. All you want is me talking.”


“Ya already, I wait ya.”


Ikmal hung up.


“Who ? Where are you going?” Ask Andre.


“Mas, Shinta can join BEM meeting for the last time ?”


“When do you get ? It's a malem, Shinta!”


“Older... Shinta also wants a farewell, Shinta also knows the capacity of Shinta's ability. Shinta will no longer be active in the organization so at least Shinta must say first if Shinta wants to stop.”


“Can't be tomorrow?”


Shinta shook her head. “Shinta please yes.”


Andre nodded, “Don't be tired.”


“Appointment!” Shinta replied firmly.


Arriving at the campus gate, Shinta got down from Andre's car followed by Andre who came down from the car. Shinta had warned him not to come down but Andre was determined to come down because he wanted to see Shinta walk to campus.


But, Ikmal was not expected to wait for Shinta to see Shinta who got off the car Andre followed by Andre who followed him. Ikmal was very surprised, and so did Shinta who saw Ikmal looking at him.


“Ikmal!” Shinta was looking at Ikmal who must be wondering why he could get off Andre's car.
