Talak After Shah

Surprise from Twins

On April 2, 2022

I woke up before three. The alarm on the phone is set less than five minutes from 03.00 am.

I, who was sleeping in Naura's room, immediately pulled the blanket out of her room, walked down the stairs, as I was about to enter the second floor of the mosque, next to the room, next to the room, I saw that room the lights were on

"The feeling before going to sleep all the lights I've turned off" my inner self

I quickly sped up my steps, and my steps came to a halt when in prayer I saw Adam reciting

I smiled looking at him.

I immediately entered the ablution chamber, washed my face and performed the evening prayer. When I recite, enter Naura and before long she has prayed right next to me.

I thought I was done, but Adam is not done yet. I let him continue frenziedly, I chose to go down, turn on the lights so that all the rooms were bright, walk towards the kitchen

Heats the rice and then starts sauteing vegetables and making vegetable soup, and heats the rendang that I cooked yesterday afternoon.

As I kept busy in the kitchen, it appeared to me and Naura

"Where's veil?"

Naura who was holding her grandmother just smiled at me

"Umak and ayuk just sit down, I'm all who prepare, just you guys sit sweet" I said as I walked back and forth to put the glasses and dishes

"This is the first sahur I prepared for Adam, I want everything I serve" I said in a trembling voice

"So special, bun?"

I looked up at him who was walking with my father

I smiled while nodding

"Your first birthday with mom"

Adam smiled and pulled out a chair for his ancestors

"The mother thought that the lights of the mosque were alive, and she knew there was adek"

"We've been used to motherhood, almost six years in Pesantren, so sleeping only for a little while is common for us"

I smiled proudly at him.

Then I filled up their plates, after finishing filling the rice for my parents and my two children, we ate

Especially for Adam, until the side dishes and drinks I give. Just like Naura when first sahur first.

"Call brother ya bun"

I nodded, Adam immediately picked up my phone, then sat back near me

"Assalamualaikum sis" said Adam when Mikail's face appeared

Mikail answered our greetings while lifting her plate

"What do you think sis?"

"Dong...."

We chuckled

"Who's cooking, son?"

There were many faces, they all called out to me

"Mother...."

I laughed at their behavior

"Woy's the mother's son, just sahur in the video call" led them to Mikail

There was a low laugh

"Where's brother?" ask Naura

"Woooyyy woyy there's a girl's voice"

Back when they were scrambling, I kept chewing while smiling at them

"Assalamualaikum ukhti.."

Adam immediately turned his head back to Naura

"Well, where's the girl, where's her voice, there's no form?"

"That's my father, maybe he's not currently wearing a hijab, so with my brother he's been eliminated"

"Congratulations, brother, do not be envious, me and eat sahur with mother"

Mikail looked chuckled

"Our notice you deck"

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

April 5, 2022

Adam had to go back to East Java again, this afternoon Naura and my parents drove him to the airport

I felt sadness when I parted with Adam.

How not, just four nights I cooked sahur for him.

"Later Lebaran adek home, mother do not be sad"

I nodded and wiped my tears.

"Tiketnya order long ago, son yes, so you can go home"

"Ready mother"

Back I hugged him, the three-year-old boy I always carried and I used to wipe his face was now much higher than me.

Slowly Adam went inside while carrying his backpack. Walk in a man's dress and a white peci.

I kept waving my hands at him, even when he got on the plane I was still glued to my place.

Until the plane took off, I took a deep breath while holding Naura

Ever since Adam came back to the boarding school, I couldn't reach him at all. Especially if he is testing.

For Mikail we will always video call when sahur and after breaking the fast.

"It's usual mother, our togetherness here is much more delicious than any menu open" he said when I saw sad after knowing the menu if open and sahur

Until finally it does not feel like fasting has stepped on the twentieth day.

I who always send food to break the fast to the homes I live in, today feel less well

Naura painstakingly took care of me, since morning I just lay down and have sent the head of the parlour a message, if today I can not deliver the menu to break the menu, I told the catering party itself to deliver.

At four o'clock, I usually make kolak or fried food for me and Naura break their fast, but this afternoon I told Naura to buy at the market shocked Ramadan which many opened along the way.

Naura who had taken a shower and finished her upadarus immediately took out her motorbike

"Sleep away"

I just cleared my throat because I was closing my eyes

The sound of the tadarus from the mosholas and the mosques was so loud that it was heard from my room upstairs, I took a phone not far from where I was lying, looking at the clock

Hours 17.35.

"Yes Rabb, where has Naura not yet returned?" my inner

Soon I dialed the number, but it didn't pick up. With a deep breath I put down the phone and walked out of the room with all my might

I slowly went down the stairs. This big house looks deserted because I'm the only occupant

Usually my father at five o'clock has come, so until this second also has not appeared, by taking a deep breath I continue to walk

I started the lights on the second floor, then went back downstairs

Arriving in the middle of the stairs I heard the voice of the person below. With purpose I listened

"English?" my inner

"That's like Defne's voice" I muttered increasingly, accelerating my steps down the stairs

"That is Mama..."

I closed my mouth as Serkan and Defne turned towards me

They both run ahead of each other. And when they got near me they hit me

I hugged the two tightly by unceasingly smirking the cheeks of both of them.

"Surprise.." yelled the two while hugging me back.

I smiled and rubbed both shoulders.

Almost a month without seeing them, I miss them so much

With great difficulty I carried Defne whose body was much more than Serkan.

Hand me my hand and then we go down the stairs

"Ukhti said mama was ill" Defne said as she placed her cheek against my forehead

"Mama is instantly healthy once she sees you"

Defne's back kissing my cheek

Seeing me object to holding Defne, my brother climbed up the stairs immediately he took over Defne and my brother kissed me on the forehead

"What pain do you have, baby?"

I smiled

"Sick gegana"

"What's that?"

"Angelah is languishing"

My brother laughed and kissed me again

Since Defne had been carried by brother, Serkan extended his hand towards me

"Oh, would you like to be carried as well?" I said while lifting it up

The four of us went down to the dining table, where Naura had prepared an iftar menu with my umak

Soon there were sirens from various mosques and mosques that indicated the time of breaking.

Hand over and Defne looked at each other

"What sounds is mama?"

"Oh, that is sound of signal to us over our fasting today honey, let's we eat"

My whole family immediately drank ice water, Naura gave me warm water nails

"Let's get healthy fast" he said

I'm nodding.

I then filled two bowls with compotes, gave them to Twins

"This is kolak, you must try it, this is very delicious"

With a curious face they scooped and put it in their mouths

"Delicious?"

Both nod.

Brother because it was four years in Indonesia so a little bit he already knows the tradition of Indonesian iftar menu that often uses kolak and fried foods

"Don't you tell me you want to come here?"

Brother smiled

"It's not a surprise to tell you, baby"

I looked lovingly at my handsome husband

"Am I the only one who doesn't know that brothers and twins are here?"

Umak my father and Naura nodded

"Papa asks" Naura replied quickly as my mouth opened about to nag him
