The Sandwich Generation's

I don't know adab

Mas Jaka turned off the bike.

" Dad how he is" said kak Yuni after being beside the motorcycle mas Jaka.

" It's been handled by the doctor, there are spots in the lungs of the father." said I explained.

" Jaka will be able to pick up brother does not want to go to the hospital as well."

" Yes, I've been waiting for you to take Lisa first." replied mas jaka heard my brother Yuni's request.

" We left first, brother." I said to Brother Yuni.

Brother Yuni nodded and passed towards our house.

"What is the state of your father sa." asked Widya as we passed in front while we were choosing vegetables at the traveling greengrocer.

"It's better that my brother has spots in our father's lungs." I said.

" I'm sorry, I haven't been able to visit because I was waiting for my husband to take a vacation before I could go there."

" So, it's okay."

Mrs de yang from earlier was busy serving the buyer ask.

" Your father's in the hospital where's the deck.?"

" In the bude rsud." I said while offering money to pay for my groceries but unexpectedly bude refused my money.

" It's already taken deck." said Bude while pushing my hand that was about to give him money.

" Don't bude, it's not good for bude." I feel bad.

" What deck is not every day bude give thanks."

" Thank you so much bude may be selling sweet merchandise."

" Aamiin O Allah." after all paying for his groceries, Bude left.

" Yuuuuur sayuuuuuur." The distinctive bude sounding voice offered his trade.

I am grateful there are still many good-hearted people around me such as Widya's family and vegetable bude, for example, immediately weeding vegetables and fish bude and cooking before I go to work later.

Once the cooking is ready I have Dita and Arif eating

Previously I put food into the bushel to mamak in the hospital as well as I will send you when I leave for work later.

Already knew his father-in-law was sick bang Andi did not also show his nose stem .

"When has Johan come, Mama?."

"They came with Neni last night."

Neni is Johan's brother-in-law Johan's sister Luna.

" oohh."

" Bang Andi.?"

" Nothing, not even a nelfon." said mamak.

" Bas son-in-law doesn't know adab." I said furiously.

" Just leave it in the nose or not the same he has no effect" said mamak trying to be stoic.

Since the beginning of their marriage, I felt my family was underestimated once by the family bang Andy her husband, sister Yuni.

Just because our circumstances are all fitting when even my father and mother never once asked for help on them , instead, the father often quietly set aside the money he got from sewing wages to give to brother Yuni to just buy rice or snacks for his grandchildren.

The doctor came to control the father and said that the day after tomorrow the father was able to go home.

Because the trip to where I work far enough I immediately say goodbye to mother to go to work.

"Go first mom, if anyone needs a phone."

" Yes, my heart, son,"

Arriving at work I got a surprise friend of mine my fellow spg who worked at the mall collecting money to give to me as a rope of love I was deeply moved by their high sense of solidarity.

" Lisa's from us." Emi gave me a white envelope while I was putting bags and jackets in my locker.

"Is this Mi? ."I asked as I looked at the white envelope in my hand that Emi gave me.

" From us to the taxi fare when your father came home" Emi said with a sincere smile.

" Eeeits do not cry, spirit." said Emi while holding my hand to the stand.

Today the mall is not so crowded because it is not an automatic weekend end not many people come to my stand.

hff! I definitely couldn't reach my target this month.

How to reach the target if the mall visitors are deserted like a cemetery.

" Lisa, your sales have dropped once this month. "

Miss Hana my supervisor was surprised by my sales this month because usually I always reach the target that has been set.

" Lonely visitor ma'am," I said.

The previous month I always hit the target because I also offer my merchandise outside the mall.

Even sister Widya once bought 6 bras from the brand where I became her SPG as well as other neighbors.

But bra is not or any other type of clothing is not a primary need so it is not always in the search of consumers different from food.

" Visa's spirit." said Hana ma'am I nodded.

Shortly before the hour home I asked Emi for help my best friend and my coworker

" I can ask you no help."

"Please help me if I can work on it."

" Gini mi tomorrow my father's coming home from the hospital can we tuker schedule off.?

" Oouh yes already, tomorrow also happens to be off me at home."

" Thank you Mi."

" Yes, tomorrow if I have time to go to your house to look at your father.

" Thank you Mi" I said again.

****************************************************

" Bang in the sift what?." Ask Johan bang over the phone.

" Day, why deck?."

" Dad came home today help me be alone when kabu.t kabu"

" There's Yuni's sister she's not working either." - Elak bang Johan.

" Sort of not knowing the nature of her husband" I said annoyed

" Yes, you will come straight to the hospital."

After nearly ten days in hospital, his father returned home.

Like the doctor's message, the father must stop his smoking habit.

" Nach heard that the doctor also advised him to stop smoking."

" If you don't smoke it feels sour" he said

Until the father came home was the son-in-law did not know himself still did not show the trunk of his nose.

Even if you can not come directly at least berbasas through the phone asking the news of the father has made us happy and feel at the price but this is absolutely nothing.

Whether what his heart is made of is not he also has parents? .

"Suami kak Yuni came to the deck?" asked Mas Jaka when he happened to take a day off and came to visit us.

" There is no mas. "

" Athaghfirullah is what his heart is made of."

" From a stone, perhaps a mas, he died and I would not come to worship."

" Hussst is not good like that, pray for it." - sergeant mas Jaka heard me say that.

" My heartache is because we poor people deserve to be treated like this?." My words started to sob

" Dek , do not be sad there are still many good ones" mas jaka wiped the tears that flowed on my cheeks.
