The Single Parent

The Single Parent
Staying In A New Place



The sun began to return to the stadium, I saw the vehicles began to crowded, the residents of this city began to return to their homes after a day of fatigue with his activities, not least with me also Vano, he said, I arrived at my parents' house, which was about 15 km from my workplace.


Entering the house, Vano got down from my sling and continued drinking milk while relaxing.


"Don't sleep in Arif's house?" ask mom


"Tomorrow the buk" I replied


"Mom, Vano's father and grandmother went to daycare to take Vano" I told him.


"Keep...?" ask mom


"I was called by his teacher Vano, did not say that I should not be taken there, it turns out they have gone, they brought clothes for Vano entrusted by the teacher earlier" I said


"Mom... I'm still lazy to relate to them, I'm also afraid that Vano was taken for granted while playing outside and his teacher was not watching him, how cute?" much


not yet mother answered the phone from my phone rang, I went to the room to take the phone, I saw her father Vano who called, why again Vano's father thought me


"Assalamualaikum" I asked


"Rin. What do you mean I can't take Vano" said Vano's father in a furious tone.


"Eh.... Why not? do you want to kidnap Vano? just see if it happens, I can sue you, already know my child custody who can, yes have to go through me first if you want to meet!" I said in an angry tone as well


"However he is also my son, why do you make it difficult to meet" he said


"You said he was your son? it's not wrong to hear, where have you been all this time? you just don't care about your son, now you say he's your son" I said fiercely


"Rinda... Can we say good?" said


"Can't!" answer me


"You think you'd like to take Vano without me, if you want to meet Vano you have to say I first, can't meet Vano at school, what kind of school do you think is the family reunion school? let him play with his theme there without us interrupting, if you want to meet me call me first" I said and called me directly I turned off, then went out of the room to take a glass of water to drink and drink it, take a deep breath, then go to mom


"Ardi called Rin?" ask mom


"Yes ma'am, let's think for yourself just to talk about bringing Vano, I know that Vano was in the nursery crying ran away to not want to see his father" I said


"Yes obviously so Rin, from a small Ardi did not want to approach his son" said my mother


"Keep now what does it mean to bring Vano" continued the mother


"Don't know mom, I'm dizzy when dealing with that guy, tomorrow I sleep at Arif bu's mas house, afraid if I meet me on the street or in this house, I'm afraid, right now he does not know my relationship with mas Arif" explained me as I passed leaving mother to the bathroom to bathe and pray Ashar


In the living room, Vano was still engrossed in watching TV shows ipin and upin while laughing cheerfully, I took a plate to eat Vano, I approached Vano


"Vano.. eat yes!" doorstep


"This is a soup made from Mbah uti yummy" I said


Vano opened his mouth and I wooed little by little while busy watching TV shows, did not feel the rice on the plate was exhausted


"Let's go Vano just one spoon a.." I said as my mouth opened and finally finished feeding Vano.


In the morning, I carry a big bag, I put it in front, and I carry Vano after saying goodbye to my parents, I go to work, mas Arif I have not called again, let it be later when it's at the office I thought


arrive at the daycare where Vano was at while I was working


"Mom Via. please keep an eye on Vano yes, worried about being kidnapped with her father" I said


"God willing, Miss Rinda" said Ms Via


"Vano. mother work first yes we will go home to grandma" I said.


"Oh yes Vano don't go out alone, if you want to go outside and ask for a teacher" I continued, Vano nodded and I kissed Vano's embrace


"Da da Vano" I said as I waved my hand, and Vano also waved her hand through the window with a smile.


Arriving at the office parking lot, I took my phone to Arif, Alhamdulillah raised my thought


"Assalamualaikum Rinda, what's wrong? yes kangen? goda mas Arif


"It's smart to tease this, say what you teach" he said


"This is what I called" I said


"What's Rin" he asked


"Mas I'll sleep in your house same Vano too, ask no hp aunt Linda" I said


"I sent ya to your wa" said mas Arif


"Yes, yes, be careful there, I love you?" say


"Love you too my bid, Assalamualaikum" said mas Arif


"Waalaikumsalam" I replied while turning off the phone


Until the office sits at work I put the bag beside and turn on the computer, I take my phone there is a message mas Arif


"It's hp mom 081 330*****" message from mas Arif


"Thank you, after this I call auntie" I reply


I kept the no on my phone and I called Aunt Rinda


"Assalamualaikum, this aunt Rinda" I said


"Waalaikumsalam Rinda, how are you when you come here" he said


"Alhamdulillah well, aunt how are you? it's healthy, right?" much


"Alhamdulillah Rin" he answered


"Aunty... Later I sleep aunty's house, it's okay right?" much


"Tante is happy Rinda, what time will it be here" he said


"Four o'clock more aunts, maybe about half five already there" I said


"OK aunty wait happens to be aunty at home at that hour" he said


"It's been aunty, thank you all Assalamualaikum" I said


"Waalaikumsalam" he answered, then I turned off the phone and started with work activities.


"Sapa Rin" asked Nia


"Oh. Arif's mother" I said.


"What a familiar look like?" tannya


"And have known for a long time, when I used to go to the house of Arif mas chat with his mother was like my own mother, later I went back there" I said


"Well, is Rin okay?" tannya


"It's okay at home just his mother mas Arif, I was actually avoiding my ex Nia" I said slowly


"You mean?" ask Nia


"The night he called I wanted to see me, it could have taken Vano, so while I was living there let him not know" I explained


"Oh... Your parents agree?" ask Nia


"Yes, even his mother Mas Arif who wanted me to live there before the incident Vano's father wanted to take Vano from daycare" I explained


Time to get home from work, I immediately headed for daycare, I carried Vano with a backpack and I rode a motorcycle to the Arif mas house which was only ten minutes from work, arriving at Arif's house, Aunt Rinda was watering the flowers in front of the house, saw me smile and said


"Just go in Rin, whatever Arif's room wants to be in the guest room"
