Mother, Abah and Indri had already left in the middle of the still dim sky. At about half-time at 6, Adwi pulled out her motorbike to drive her in-laws home. He also asked his friend to be able to piggyback Abah.
They deliberately went away secretly, little Laila was still fast asleep on the bed. When he wakes up, he may cry and look for the three people who have been taking care of him for a long time. But Mother and Abah could not stay any longer, the fields and fields they could not leave behind. In addition, Indri also had to go to school.
"Serrrk! Serrk!"
As a wife, Anjani's job at home is to take care of household affairs. At 7, Anjani sweeps his yard.
Right next to the house, there is a garden whose trees are not too lush. There are only asem trees, mangosteen, and some medium-sized wood trees.
There, Anjani can see the neighboring house which is also a stilt house. The house was on a plateau higher than Anjani's house. The land there is a step, and so on, the neighboring house Anjani in front is in the lower plains of Anjani's house.
Arriving behind the yard, Anjani finds something.
"This what?" Anjani.
"Maa? Maaa...?"
From the room of the thin house Anjani heard Laila's voice, it seemed like Laila had woken up from her sleep. Then Anjani put down her broomstick and rushed into the house.
Laila was sitting where she was sleeping. With his face still tight to his sepet eyes trying to look around.
"Maa..? Maa..?" Laila was looking for Mom.
"You call Mama Darling?" Anjani felt moved, she thought Laila was saying the name of mama.
"Mama, don't be aware." Said Laila who was still not fluent in speaking.
Anjani immediately understood, Mother told him last night that while in the village, Laila continued to call her neighbors as mama. Maybe when he played, he saw his friends calling his mama.
Mother often leaves Laila to her neighbors. Unexpectedly, Laila called her neighbor as mama. Mom felt bad, she forbade Laila to talk like that. Mom said that Laila's mom was on the plane.
Every time the sound of the drone sounded, Laila always rushed outside and searched for the plane in the sky. After Laila found her plane, Laila immediately shouted to her mama.
"Mama, hurry home!" That's what Laila always shouted.
"It's Mama Darling, Mama's home." Anjani tries to introduce herself to Laila. But Laila turned and looked at the window.
"Huu..." Laila was about to cry.
"My thing,"
Suddenly Laila cried and hugged Anjani tightly. Anjani does not know what makes Laila cry, but she keeps holding Laila in her arms.
Eventually, Laila fell asleep again. Anjani laid Laila on her bed. Anjani is still curious about something she found in the backyard.
Anjani took out something from inside her skirt pocket. An envelope of mail, already on fire but still leaving the name of the sender. 'Lilis' was obviously the name of a woman.
Anjani does not know who Lilis is, the letter must have belonged to Adwi, where perhaps a neighbor whose house was far away accidentally burned the letter just behind Anjani's house.
Anjani's heart felt bad, he kept the letter back while waiting for Adwi's return.
"A, how much do you work? We used to promise to compete who could make the most money. I want to know who won." Anjani ignored the letter for a moment. He was curious about the hard work achieved by Adwi.
"I don't have any money, I'm here miserable. Dizziness me, you're there no news. Livestock with wood are all abis I use for treatment." Adwi said cynically.
After 3 months of working out of town, Adwi came home and stayed in his village. He took over his job which was replaced by his father.
Goats and the wood that Adwi had in the garden, all of which he sold out. Likewise, the dowry that Anjani left as a sign of his love for Adwi, now the thing is gone.
The Adwi motorbike is now different from the previous one. He sold his motorbike at a fairly expensive price and bought a used motorbike that was much cheaper.
Anjani just wipe the lips. He was disappointed, all this time Adwi who he expected did not give anything at all. Anjani left because he wanted to build a nice house. Working together, separated by such a long distance, it turns out that only Anjani is fighting alone.
Although previously Anjani was still grateful to have this simple house, but now Anjani also suspected that this house was made from his own sweat. He did not believe everything Adwi said. It was as bad as what pain suffered by Adwi until he sold all the wealth he had.
"A, I work there because I want to make a nice house! But why did Aa even let me fight alone?!" Said Anjani in a high tone.
Anjani could not hold back her emotions. Until now Adwi looks healthy. Anjani snapped at Adwi without wanting to know what illness he was suffering from.
"Are you the only one who fusses about it? I'm always there with Aa! I want to buy Megabarin Aa! But, how is the pain fitting employers ngebarang and jerk me who want to go to Ngabarin Aa? Aa know? I'm there working tired, tortured, scolded, just eat me hard A! Hicks. hyx.."
"Try Aa shadowin, I was there eating leftovers, every day I strengthened my mind which always got torment from the master. I miss Aa, same Laila, I want to go home, I want to run away, but I don't want to go home with nothing, I don't want to fuck you guys."
Vaporizing her emotions, Anjani cried. He turned off the stove in front of him. Not caring about his cooking, he walked and sat on a long bench.
"Who's this from?" Anjani wiped her tears and took out the letter from her skirt pocket.
"Not from anyone." Adwi replied indifferently. He just stood up and did not want to look at Anjani. The words of Anjani who was full of sadness earlier were not he ignored at all.
"Ohhh. That's all I love to play with girls there's no I'm here tea!" Anjani was very upset.
"Boro-boro, think one child is also dizzy." Adwi replied.
'When Laila was taken care of by Mother, what was the burden on her mind A Adwi?!'
