The Single Parent

Must Be Back Again

A week later...

Tonight Nia sleeps at the house of in-laws, tomorrow morning Mas Arif and Mas Deni leave for Papua.

"Sir, I go out first" said Mas Deni while we were in the living room.

"You too Nia?" manyu tease.

"Rin.. a day doesn't tease me that's not good," said Nia annoyed.

"He he he," I just laughed at Nia's annoyed words.

"Be careful" said Mas Arif.

Mas Deni and Nia went out of the house on Nia's motorcycle.

The sound of a motorcycle was turned on and slowly the sound left this house.

"They seem to be kasmaran" I said.

"Tomorrow, someone must be crying, just like you used to." Mas Arif teased me.

"When the hell, I forget," I said.

"At the airport" replied Mas Arif.

"He he he, I still miss Mas for years not seeing, uh met a week you've left again," I said.

"Now not kangen?" ask Mas Arif.

I smiled at Mas Arif's question.

"It's used to me, so the miss is now being held back" I replied.

"Aren't you the same as Rinda?" my many.

"Yes kangen Rin, you are always I miss," replied Mas Arif.

Vano is still fun playing on the carpet, yesterday bought Mas Arif lego from wood.

I put my head on Mas Arif's shoulder and Mas Arif grabbed my shoulder then rubbed the wrap and kissed me on my forehead.

"Rin... Your next leave, huh?" ask Mas Arif.

"Yes Mas, Mas if you can leave Mas when Rinda gave birth yes," I said.

"God, baby, I just want you two wives and children to be safe" said Mas Arif.

"Yes Mas, Aamiin." I said.

Time showed it was eight at night, Nia and Mas Deni had not returned, while Vano had started to sleepy.

"Have you not come home yet?" my many.

"They are adults Rin, not children, will also come home" Mas Arif replied as he stood up and walked towards Vano.

"You rest, Vano I move it," said Mas Arif.

Mas Arif carried Vano into the room, I was still sitting on the sofa in the living room while looking at the tv, my hands gently rubbed my stomach.

Shortly after, Mas Arif came out of his room walking towards me and sat down beside me.

I rubbed my stomach and kissed her.

"Son... Tomorrow I go to work, are you all right? when I come home, we see you born in this world, I can't wait for you to be born" Mas Arif whispered.

My stomach then moved, "Eh Mas, he moved, maybe he heard what you said," I said.

"Yes Rin" said Mas Arif, then kissed my stomach.

"Mas.;" call me slowly.

"Yes... What is Rin?" ask Mas Arif.

"Mas... next leave I can not give my obligation, I gave birth, maybe the next leave again can, do Mas hold no love for less than six months?" tanyaku seriously.

"I'll hold him Rin" replied Mas Arif.

"Later there someone teases you and Mas lulled," I said suspiciously.

"Rin.. believe me, pray for your husband when far away so as not to be tempted to other women, always pray for me to remain tempted by you," said Mas Arif.

"If tense continues how? it can't be distributed," I said.

"Yes, it was taken out, dear," said Mas Arif then looking at me holding both of my cheeks and gently kissing my lips.

"Darling..I love you forever," said Mas Arif slowly when he took off his kiss.

"Nia... Has the gate been locked?" my many.

"It's Rin," said Nia.

"You guys go ahead first, we're in the room, it's been a bit late" said Mas Arif as he stood up and walked towards the room, I followed him from behind.

We went into the room.

"Mas. let's go to sleep" I said as we lay on the bed.

"Yes Rin, you rest first, I want to prepare what I bring tomorrow," said Mas Arif while sitting in the bed then down from the bed take a bag and some clothes are also items that will be brought tomorrow.

The plane is tomorrow noon at one noon, so Mas Arif and Mas Deni leave in the morning.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

A few moments later, someone hugged me from behind.

I could feel that it was my own husband, we slept all three on the bed.

***

In the morning, everyone in the house was busy preparing Mas Arif and Mas Deni to leave for Papua, not with Vano who was still sleeping.

Me and Nia were cooking together in the kitchen, while Mas Arif and Mas Deni were cleaning the house.

"She... How do you feel?" I went to Nia in the kitchen.

"Cook this fast, huh?" ask Nia.

"He must be our man must be back here again, yes, two months, you are patient, we pray a lot that they are fine, he said, his eyes and heart were shut by God so as not to be tempted by the woman there" I said.

Mas Deni was seen down the stairs already carrying a backpack on his back and was neat.

Mas Arif has also been out of the room carrying his backpack.

I approached my husband and invited him back into the room.

"Pardon me last night did not carry out my duty, do not give this to another woman, Mas... Two more months I gave birth, Mas must be a long fast, patient no?" I asked while kissing Mas Arif's lips.

"Dear my wife, you are the only one in my heart there is no other woman" Mas Arif replied as we let go of our kiss.

"Rin... Have you booked transportation online yet?" ask Mas Arif.

"Yet, after this, Mas did not say goodbye to Vano?" my many.

Mas Arif went up to the bed kissing Vano's cheek, saying, "Vano... I'm off to work."

Vano wriggled and began to open his eyes then hugged Mas Arif and whispered, "When will I go home again?."

"Two months away Vano, the smart Vano huh," Mas Arif's message as he held Vano down from the bed and stepped out of the room, I followed him.

Seen Mas Deni was sitting side by side on the sofa chair, the look of their faces look sad, yes, long distance relationships are also vulnerable to problems and infidelity but with prayer with our feelings not to hurt a partner insyaallah long distance relationship will make a deep longing and family harmony when meeting unwind.

"Let's have breakfast together" I asked.

The five of us headed to the dining table, sat there and enjoyed the collaborative cuisine between me and Nia.

After breakfast I ordered the transport online, and got the driver. Now the time shows six o'clock more than a quarter, we headed to the terrace of the house sitting there while waiting for the car we ordered.

Nia looks crying and Mas Deni is calming Nia down.

The car arrived in front of the house-in-law, I hugged my husband and whispered, "be careful."

"You too dear" whispered Mas Arif.

Mas Arif bent his body to parallel with Vano's body and hugged kissing Vano's cheek.

"Vano..so a good boy yes," said Mas Arif.

"Father be careful, come home soon again," said Vano while kissing Mas Arif's cheek.

Nia and Mas Deni embrace each other seen Mas Deni wipe the tears of Nia.

Then Mas Arif and Mas Deni entered our car waving.

Nia hugged me and cried, I rubbed my back.

"Patience, and a lot of prayer, long distance relationships are painful when separated but become happy when we meet again" I said.

"Let's get ready for work" I said.

Then we went inside to get ready for work and we left for work together with two motorcycles.
