Thanksgiving



"I'm near the mother!" yell out Adam


"Me!" shouted Naura


"Me!" Mikail doesn't want to lose


I smiled to see my three children who wanted to sleep next to me


"Mother in the middle, you will be next to the mother of all" I replied


"But I'm right next door!" yell Naura fast


"Me too!" yell out Adam


"Where am I?" mikail replied sadly


"None beside me or next to me" Adam said


Mikail relented and chose to sleep next to her sister. I immediately stroked his head until he fell asleep.


"Still a bully" my inner self while continuing to stroke her head.


Tonight we sleep with a carousel in the middle of the house. Brother Yana and sister Angga and the family slept all in my umak house.


Except for the two young boys yuk Yana, they went home and had brought their own motorcycles


Due to my overachieving, I fell asleep as soon as my head met the pillow, as well as my three children.


...****************...


I wake up late, but usually never. My three children were still asleep, then I sat down and circulated my gaze. All my nieces are not clear where they go to sleep. Brother Angga and brother Andri are the same, just as hard.


I smiled at the irregular position of my two brothers. Then I got up and headed for the kitchen, it turns out my father and Yuk Diana were busy cooking. Um I was washing dishes


"Let me, umak just go back to the front" I said while taking a plate from my umak hand


Umakku complied and chose to sit while watching the three of us who were shoulder to shoulder.


The three of them were immediately busy asking me about how Arabic is and how I work. Everything I told you with enthusiasm. They were amazed to hear my story


At nine o'clock in the morning everything is in order, both cooking and washing clothes. My kids and brother are awake, and now waiting for their baths


"Where are we today?" ask after we finish breakfast


Zahra directly mentions tourist attractions as well as others. My three children have no comment, the three prefer to hug and sleep on my thighs


"What if on Sunday night we give thanks" said my father because he heard all his grandchildren were busy taking me for a walk


Umak and my brother agreed, so I agreed too.


After noon, my nephew took a walk. But my three children refused, they wanted to stay home with me all day. So the two sons of bachelors Yuk Yana and Zahra I gave five hundred thousand for them to serve. After receiving money from me, the three of them darted away


When me and my three children relaxed in the room while telling stories, suddenly outside the house there was a crowded voice.


"Neighbors here Ndah" said my umak when entering the room


Me and my three kids woke up and we got out. It turned out that in the living room there was my neighbor first, Miss Lis and the others


I immediately hugged them


"We know from Dian that you're coming home" Ms Lis said


I smiled towards him


Then we were busy telling stories, reminiscing when we were neighbors


When Miss Lis was about to say Andi's name I gave her a shaky code, I didn't want my three children to hear the ugliness of their father in the past


...****************...


I hugged Naura with haru when this morning my father and I drove her back to Pesantren


"Saturday afternoon you pick up, Insha Alloh" I promised


Naura nodded. After Naura entered class and I said goodbye to the head of the dorm, my parents and I went home


"You're the one who brought the car" said my father


"Father, I want to spoil the same general" I replied while hugging my umak


Finally my father gave up and drove his new car.


Long story short, finally Saturday morning at my umak house has been crowded with neighbors who rent for a celebration tonight


I am so grateful that my neighbors were so enthusiastic about helping us.


"How many brothers?" ask me on Andri's sister who was busy seeing people putting up tents


"Only our neighbors" he answered


"Room boy?" cut me fast


"Need to take them?" replied Andri looking at me


"Kok that answer, it is necessary sis, I do not want us to eat well not jump them" I replied sewot


"A lot of sat, not enough tents"


"Add more then" I replied


My brother raised his eyebrows hearing my answer


"Astaghfirullah" my brother replied in shock


I chuckled


"One of them" I said


My brother said then he was busy calling some friends and thank God two hours later came a pick up with a big cow


My neighbor came back to the scene when Angga said he would cut the cow for lunch and dinner later at Thanksgiving.


After an ustadz came and slaughtered the cow, my neighbor returned shoulder to shoulder to shoulder and cut the meat.


At four o'clock in the afternoon I picked up Naura at the boarding school with my two boys.


"Can you bring a car?" asked one of my mothers when I saw me open my father's car door


I smiled while nodding at him


"Insha Alloh can be ma'am" I replied


Then I immediately darted to pick up Naura. It didn't take long for me to arrive and after getting permission, I went back home with my three children


"The big step of the tent is mother" Naura said as we got out of the car and parked it on the side of the road


"A lot of money" I answered


Then we went into the house, Naura greeted everyone she met. They all praised Naura, especially her posture that was already high beyond my height


"How tall is Naura now, it's like your power pole" said one mother when Naura experienced it


"Last shaved yesterday 168 Grandma" replied Naura


They were amazed to hear Naura's reply


"New class 2 SMP is so high, how about SMA" they chanted


Naura and I smiled, and then I got Naura to eat


"Eat first son" I said as I sat next to him


When Naura took the plate in my hand, I refused. I chose to bribe him


Seeing me feed Naura, Mikail and Adam did not want to lose, they asked for a bribe as well


...****************...


The Thanksgiving event is already underway, I can see if this very spacious tent is full of invited guests.


After reading the Surah Yasin there was an ustadz giving tausiyah, finished with his tausiyah suddenly back there was an ustadz who advanced to give a speech


"We have never met and never know who is mother, but our home every month get compensation from him" he said


I who heard him looked embarrassed. Why should this be mentioned regretfully in my heart


"We, from all ten heads of the house, ask respectfully for Mother to go on stage, we want to thank you directly" he continued


I immediately closed my face while shaking it many times. All the eyes that knew me immediately turned towards me


Brother Andri came forward, walked towards me and took me up. I shook my head at him


"Why do I have to do this, brother, I told you not to let anyone know if I became a donor" said I lirih


"Where do you know, you're shocked too" my sister whispered


With heavy footsteps I followed my brother up the stage, after seeing me standing on the stage with my brother all the children of the orphanage dressed in white in sholawat.


My tears I could not hold as they broke, growing stronger when accompanied by a prayer from them specifically for me.


Finished with holiness, ten head of the house and his wife went up to the stage to shake hands with me. I cried more and more when hundreds of children came up and kissed the back of my hand. Until my father came up to hold me because he saw me crying as much as I could.


"It's rich, generous anyway" whispered one of the invited guests to his friend


"The rich widow, wahhhh which man dares to approach her now" his friend replied


"If Andi knew that Indah was a millionaire now, I'm sure she would divorce Indah" continued another


They compactly nodded and increasingly respect to see the generosity of Beautiful.


At ten o'clock the Thanksgiving was over, followed by dinner together.


What makes me even more moved is, when the invited guests come home, all the children of the home to clean the chairs, tidy up and collect all the leftover food waste and bottles of used mineral water


While the women took over washing hundreds of dishes. My neighbors who were originally going to wash the dirty dishes, got out of the way as soon as they took over.


After that, they cleaned the house. The house, the dirty dishes and the tent were all neat and clean by them.


When they came home I thanked them all. And when they all greeted me, I slipped an envelope that I filled with ten pieces of red money in their hands.


Likewise with the head mother of the foundation, I again leave my provision to them.


"Otherwise it's mom" they said as I gave the envelope


"The father of the mother who Allah entrusted me with" I replied


The mothers hugged me with haru. My family and I took them all the way to the bus we hired to take them to each other's homes


"Thank you brother, thanks to your help all the shows went well" I told my brother and my whole family


Then I took my three children and because the house was clean neatly, we again held the mattress in the middle of the house, sleeping together again
