The Single Parent

Both

The time showed at eight o'clock in the evening, Vano had already slept from half past eight

"Rin, I'm going home first, okay? your bike I brought, tomorrow I'm here again" he said, I nodded my head in agreement and went inside looking for my parents

"Mom, Arif is coming home" I said

"Pity Rin, let's just sleep here there's Faris' room" said the mother

"Mom talked to Arif himself" I said

"Where is mom?" much

"Your father is sleeping like he is" said the mother as she walked outside the house

"Arif sleeps here" said mother

"Arif came home ma'am, not good with the neighbors, tomorrow here again" he said

"Be careful" said the mother

"Yes ma'am, I brought your bike, Rin, which key? tannya

"Awhile mas, I took it inside" I said as I walked into the house then walked out giving bicycle contact to Arif, "be careful" I said

After the Arif mas came home I entered the room as well as the house and the door was locked, I put my body on the bed saw a ring tightly coiled on my ring finger, o Allah Almighty, for all that you have given me, may this be my barokah, my inner Aamiin, I see Vano sound asleep, I kiss his forehead, his cheeks, howling, remembering the time mas Arif wanted Vano to call father instead of om, smile I remember him, I hugged Vano, soon the phone voice disperse my daydream, mas Arif video call my inner, I took my hijab and I lifted

"It's home" I said

"Rin. is still missing" he said.

"He he he, it could be this Arif mas" I said with a laugh

"Tomorrow where is Rin's plan?" tannya

"Not anywhere in the house, I'm mas" I said

"Tomorrow I'll go there" he said

"Dear on, let's take a break, you must be tired today" I said

"Yes, I love you" he said

"Love you too" I answered and placed my phone on my bedside table, drowsiness began to attack me and I finally fell asleep

The morning after the dawn prayer I sat down casually in front of the tv together with Vano

"Rin... Arif will be here?" ask mom

"Yes ma'am, only Rinda doesn't know what time it is?" say

"I'll go to your house, how's it going?" mother said

"Are you going to follow?" mother said again

"What do you need to do besides visit Mbah?" much

"Aunt Rin's rice harvest again, the same father mother went there to help" said the mother

"If Mas Arif has not come the same mother left first yes" I said

"Vano joined Mbah uti, want to see the rabbit Vano first, mother and father will go there" said Vano

"He... Vano, when do you start calling Arif dad?" ask mommy wonder

"Yesterday, it was Arif who told me" said Vano innocently, smiling mother heard Vano

I saw mom and dad getting ready to go to the house, Mbah,

"Rin Vano prepared his family, with me first, Arif's clock is not here yet" said the mother

"Perhaps still sleeping Arif tired mom, I have prepared Vano's family already in the bag of mom" I said as I took Vano's silver bag and took him out put on his bike father

"Vano went with Mbah uti huh?" I said as I put the jacket on to Vano, then Vano walked outside

"Not Rin's sling pack" said the mother

"Vano just sitting in the middle of the mother, it's getting more pity on the mother" I said as I lifted Vano put behind the father

"Be careful" I said as I waved to them

Not long after that, Arif came to the house with a car

"Kok deserted Rin, where is everything?" ask me Arif

"What does Mas Arif want to drink?" much

"No need for Rin, this is water" he said

"Rin you get ready yeah, let's go for a walk" said mas Arif later

I entered the room changed clothes to go out with mas Arif, after all neat I met mas Arif

"Let's go now" I said

"Hey was so sprightly" he said as he stood up and walked out of the house, I followed him from behind and locked the house and the fence, then opened the front door of the car into the car

On the way

"Mas... Where are we going?" say

"To the beach that we used to go there" he said

Yes I remember there when Arif first expressed his love for me, smiling to himself I remembered that

"Hey...why smile for yourself?" tannya

"Remember we used to be mas hehehe" I said as I glanced at Mas Arif

The journey of about half an hour from the house to the white sand beach, arriving there did not change much here, but there are some more stalls than before, after the car in the parking lot, but there are some more, we got out of the car

"Well, Rin are we there?" pinta mas Arif's

mas Arif showed us the place where we used to sit together in the chunk of stone, and until now there is still

"Mas.. this chunk of rock is our silent witness" I said.

"Yes Rin, I used to say love here, now that we come here you've been proposed to me, will be my wife again" he said as he embraced me

"Yes mas, funny yes it used to be hehehe" I said and laughed reminiscing about the moment

I lay my head on the shoulder of the mas Arif looking off the beach both here on the white sand beach

"Mas... mas is ready for the money, said mas ask to be celebrated? say

While stroking the headscarf on my head, Arif said

"I canister Rin from my salary, God exists" he said

"Mas Arif plans invite how many people? where's place?" much

"Bingung also I Rin with the concept of our marriage later" he said

"You have Rin's idea?" continued

"Actually Rinda did not want to be in the mas enliven, Rinda wanted him at the wedding ceremony as well as the scripturenya" I said

"Who's Rin at home, who's good for such an event?" ask me Arif

"Don't know I'm a mas, in my parents' cramped house, Arif's mas house?" how

"Mother may not agree, she's not willing to have her plants damaged because of the many guests" she said

"Oh yes mas, how about in a hotel in a fork near the same square? there is a wedding package for guests of about three hundred people, it's the same food" I said

"It's okay, sometimes there you ask the price" he said

"Yes mas, the concept is relaxed, we can walk to meet guests chatting with guests" I said

"It's good Rin" he said

Looking at the vast ocean to hear the waves, we enjoy this togetherness, a beach full of memories for us

"Mas.." I said slowly lifting my head off his shoulder and he took off the hug on my waist

"What's up Rin" he said as he looked at me

"Mas... want to go to the house?" say

"When?" tannya

"Now you are" I answered

Mas Arif stood up as did I, he hugged me while whispering

"I still want to be with you, baby"
