The Single Parent

Meeting Old Neighbors

A few days later, on Friday, after I picked up Vano, I went straight home to my parents' house, this morning already saying goodbye to my mother-in-law.

"Mother... Vano wants to eat" said Vano in my backpack.

I stopped by the side of the road, looking at the watch on my left wrist, the time showed at 15:20 minutes.

"Vano asked what to eat?" my many.

"Chicken kentucky kayak yesterday Mother" said Vano.

"OK" I said with a smile.

I drove the motorcycle to where Vano was referring to, after I turned off the motorbike in the parking lot available there, and entering the dining room heading to the cashier to order food, I saw Vano engrossed in playing plorotan.

Long enough to wait for the queue finally until it was my turn, I ordered some food and I waited for the food and drinks to be served, and then I got some, once the food was ready I paid for it and took it to an empty table close to the plorotan game where Vano was.

"Vano come" call me.

Then Vano walked up to me and started eating his favorite food.

"Rinda...?" call someone, I turned to the side to see who called me.

"Hey... Farida, how are you, let's sit down join us" I asked.

"You alone?" ask again.

"Yes, I ordered some food for a while, wait here" Farida said, then left me.

Soon Farida came to me with ordered food.

"Vano, you're a big boy, want to go with your aunt to your grandmother's house?" ask Vano.

"Mother, whose grandmother?" asked Vano with his face.

"Ardi's father's mother" I replied explaining.

Instantly, Vano shook his head.

"Vano continue eating yes" I said.

"Farida, don't talk about them in front of Vano like this, he's still afraid, there's been a case of Vano being forced to follow my ex, Vano crying" I told him.

"Oh, that's it" said Farida understood.

"Did he call you often?" ask Farida on the sidelines to eat us.

"Yes, a few days ago, what happened to him?" my many.

"It looks like he wants to marry Rin" Farida told me.

"Alhamdulillah then, who is the same?" my many.

"I don't know who he is, who I know he wears like you, and who you are" Farida explained.

"Hah, it's not the fault of that person" I said in surprise.

"Well it's Rin, I'm also a neighbor who feels astonished" Farida said.

"I used to dress this old-fashioned way" I said.

"Will he see me introduce the woman?" I went to Farida.

"It could be Rin" Farida replied.

"Say the hell want to change so, but I can't believe him completely, after all so, want to change in fact still repeat his mistakes" I explained.

"I haven't been able to meet Farida" I said slowly.

"Rin, are you married?' ask Farida.

"Yes, just now" I replied.

"Where's that guy?" ask Farida again with her rant.

"People here are Farida, but work in Papua there, every two months back home, only five days ago left" I said.

"Vano what about your husband?" ask Farida.

"Vano feels comfortable and happy with my husband Farida, so I want to marry this man" I said.

"Why so soon you decided to marry Rin, didn't you just get divorced?" ask Farida again.

"Yes, he he he, the end of my iddah period I got married, this is my girlfriend was ten years waiting to finally meet again" I said with a laugh.

"He's a bachelor or a widower?" ask Farida.

"Still single, he looked for me and met me again finally continued our relationship first, yes.

"Oh. so the story goes" Farida said.

"Oh yes Rin, be careful!" farida's Message.

Me and Vano joined hands out of the place and Vano I carried a sling with a backpack, after which I left the place to my parents' house, Vano fell asleep in my arms.

When we arrived at my parents' house, Vano was still sleeping, I fell asleep in my room, then I went out of the room to the living room to meet my parents.

"Rinda... Where's vano?" ask Mom.

"Vano sleep ma'am" I replied.

"Mom... Rinda's been calling Vano's dad for a few days" I started telling stories.

"What does Rin want?" ask Mother.

"Want to meet with Vano, but Rinda is still not ready to meet him Mom, Mas Arif also does not like Rinda to meet him since the incident in Childcare, Vano's father forced Vano to come with him" said explain.

"Kok tumben he remembered his son?" ask mother.

"Oh yes I met Farida, she told me that her father Vano wanted to marry Mom" I said.

"Who was that woman?" ask mom with a curious tone.

"He said she wasn't that woman, didn't know who, but she was dressed like me, and she was my age" I told Farida this afternoon.

"Would he want to meet Vano, to take Vano ya Rin, let alone the woman close to him now might be the same as your nature" said the mother there was a worried tone.

"Yes Ma'am, Rinda was also shocked to hear this news from Farida, I hope nothing happens Mom" I said trying to calm my heart.

"Have you told Arif?" ask Mom again.

"Not Ma'am, I'm afraid Mas Arif is worried there, while here I handle it first, hopefully he has no cunning intention to take Vano ya Bu" I said.

"Yes Rin, I went to the mosque first to pray congregation depart with your Father" Pamit mother.

"Yes Ma'am, Rinda at home just pray, Vano is still sleeping worried about waking up looking for me" I said.

Adhan maghrib reverberated, immediately I took ablution and performed the maghrib prayer at home, finished the maghrib prayer, when I opened the door, hp from inside my room reads, may my husband who calls, my mind.

Thankfully, it was Mas Arif who contacted me.

"Rinda... Are you at your parents' house?" asked Mas Arif when he saw me in the room.

"Yes Mas, I'm sorry Rinda was not the same permission Mas Arif, next time Rinda anywhere will be permission" I said.

"I'm not angry Rin, how's Father?" ask Mas Arif.

"Alhamdulillah all good mas" I replied.

"Where's the van, honey?" Mas Arif asked Vano's whereabouts.

My camera hp is pointing to a sleeping Vano.

"Sleep again, when I want to talk to Vano, miss me with Vano" said Mas Arif.

"Your wife is missing, aren't they?" tanyaku seriously.

"Obviously kangen is dear, baby open a little, I want to see" said mas Arif.

"Ih, parno is also your mind" I said.

"It's okay, I'm your husband, it's nice for the husband to get a reward" said Mas Arif.

I finally opened the little limb she wanted.

"Had You?" ask me with annoyance because of shame and dislike but forced to please the husband.

"He he he, thank you dear, love you" said Mas Arif smiling complacently,

"Rin... You don't miss me?" ask Mas Arif.

"Kangen throw away dear, but Rinda hold it" I replied.

"All for me later if we meet, less than one month and three weeks we meet" he said.

"Ha ha ha, don't you count the seconds and minutes?" ask me and laugh.

"No need Rin, Rin already yes, I want to go out with Deni, want to eat" said Mas Arif.

"Yes my hubby, be careful." I ordered, then the phone was turned off.

A few minutes later, Mom and Dad came home from the mosque.

"Mother, I got a greeting from Mas Arif" I said with a smile.

"Just call Arif, greetings back from us, he's fine right?" ask Father.

"Thank God be good, healthy sir, mas Arif there" I said.
