Towards child care.


"Assalamualaikum" said my greeting.


"Waalaikumsalam" answers from within.


I took off my shoes and opened the door,


Vano looked at me and ran to hug me kissing me as if I was tired of working so well-treated, thank you God You gave me a boy who always understood my condition to encourage my life, my condition, I hugged my kiss and I carried my son off the longing of a day not to meet.


"Mom Via, Ma'am Ana how is Vano a day this naughty huh? or fussy?" much


"It's usually a child's mother" replied Ms. Ana


"So Vano took a nap" said Ms Via


"Yes already Ma'am I say go home first" while carrying a Vano bag and shaking hands with Bu Ana, Bu Via and Bu Rika.


"Thank you Ma'am for looking after Vano" I said.


"Assalamualaikum" salamku.


"Waalaikumsalam" replied Ms. Via and Ms. Ana.


"Be careful" they said.


On the way Vano said.


"Mother asked to buy a car toy" he whined.


"Vano... Mother has no money at all


next month yes" I asked as I pasted.


"Vano asks now Mother" he whined while crying in my arms.


In the heart of O Allah cheapen this servant windfall I did not feel I shed tears, Vano still cried whining for toys.


All this time his father did not care about Vano he was busy with his own business.


I stopped by the side of the road because Vano kept crying and thrashing.


"Vano..sorry once Mother really does not have money, this is enough money for Vano milk, Vano do not want to drink milk?" said explain.


"If Vano asks for toys now the day after tomorrow can not buy milk want? mama payjian is still a long time" I said.


Vano just silently listened to my words I hugged Vano kiss gently while saying.


"Pardon Mommy yes Vano has not been able to buy toys for Vano"


"Mother if next month promise yes" he asked.


"God willing Vano pray that Mother can get a lot of money can nyenengin Vano" I said.


Arrive at home at half 5 pm


heating water for a Vano bath.


I bathed Vano while joking around as if the heavy burden had disappeared by seeing vano smile.


A week has passed the May 8th I've been waiting for.


Vano today is not in childcare but the same parents who happened to be relaxed today at home and I yesterday also asked permission from Mr. Farid not to go to work.


In the religious court sitting alone waiting for the call of trial I looked left front back left no father Vano


half an hour passed and there was no call and I finally headed to the cafeteria to buy some drinking water and went back to the court waiting room.


Shortly thereafter the loudspeaker called my name.


"Arinda Widya Arini and Ardiansyah Ma'ruf please enter courtroom two"


I did not find my ex's face in my mind if I did not come immediately I set my foot into the courtroom and my heart was filled with trembling hands, O Allah forgive the sin of this servant wrought this servant's business my prayer.


Inside the courtroom.


"Mother Arinda" asked the person in front of me.


"Yes right sir" I replied.


"Where's Ardiansyah's father?" ask the person in front of me.


"Don't know sir there's no communication with me" I replied.


"How can the trial begin" asked the prosecutor to the person next to him, and the one next to him nodded his head.


"Mr Arinda, do you really want to part with Mr Ardiansyah?" ask her.


"Yes sir" I replied with a quiver of my voice because of the guggub


"This Mr. Ardiansyah did not sign the divorce papers sent there means Mr. Ardiansyah does not want a divorce" said the prosecutor


My heart is God, what this man wants.


"Sir.please continue this divorce process" I asked.


"I've been separated from my husband for a year and during that time he never visited his son let alone provide for his son please continue, sir! there is no longer any hope for me to continue this household" I continued.


The prosecutor looked through my file again and whispered next to it.


"Yes Ma'am the trial can be continued again Mother can follow the trial again after two more weeks, later the trial schedule will be sent to Mother" he said.


The hearing was closed the sound of a hammer being knocked three times.


Soon I left the courtroom with an irritated heart.


I took the phone out of my bag to call Mas Ardi


"Where are you now?" ask me with angry tone.


"I'm in the parking lot the religious court answered


what do you mean by not signing files? you think I'd like to come back with you? I'm tired of living with you, I'm tired of you hurting me let alone you with my life?" ocehku.


"You go to the parking lot and I'll wait there" he replied.


Immediately I turned off my phone and headed to the Religious Court parking lot from afar I saw my ex sitting in a long chair and I approached him.


"What do you want?" my murmur.


"Sit down first" he said.


"No need" I answered tightly.


"Rin... Vano didn't bring it?" said.


"Can't it be nice if you take it straight with your girl you think I can't take care of what kid? continue every day Vano see his father come home bring different women? that yourwant? you proud of that? will you show your son?" I said with emotion.


It feels like I want to throw anything into his face that is like innocent, what dream am I living once in the world meet this kind of man.


Immediately I set foot on my motorcycle which I parked there and left the Religious Court with a bad heart no matter what it was that was important this trial was a success and continued for another two weeks.


After coming out of the religious court I went to the store to buy necessities for a month, when I got there I bought some milk Vano, pampers and so forth and immediately I paid to the cashier


milk and so on for a month has been in the cardboard in the heart of Thank God I hope the blessing I see the contents of my wallet live some of my money and still there atm a few hundred hopefully enough until the payday later.


Arriving at home, I saw Vano falling asleep in the room soft kiss her cheeks, the time showed at one o'clock in the afternoon.


"Bu Vano wasn't that fussy?" ask me to Mom.


"She often asks when you're coming home" my mother replied.


"How was the trial?" ask Mother.


"Yes that's how Ma'am is two weeks away from another trial carrying two witnesses" I replied.


I never told my parents what my divorce process was like and what my problems were like, I didn't want them to be thinking and sick.


"Have you eaten Rin?" ask Mother.


"Not yet Ma" I replied.


"Feed first!" pinta Mother's.


"Yes Bu did not pray duhur first" I said.


After the prayer I went to the dinner table I saw Vano still sleeping, after eating I laid my body beside Vano and whispered in his ear


"So pinter and sholeh boy!" while peeling his forehead.


If you can say I am tired of my life, let me feel for myself.
