The night changed with the morning. A chicken cigarette sounded in the ear of Bu Ningsih who had been awake from earlier. But there is something strange. Mia who usually has been up since morning and immediately clean up the house and cook, but this morning the house of Haji Hamid is still quiet.
Bu Ningsih's mind floated on Haji Hamid's voice he heard at two o'clock last night. His eyes looked towards Haji Hamid's room, still tightly closed.
"The fight until night anyway, so bad luck. Well, even though the bride has been a long time. But it's still like a newlywed." Bu Ningsih smiled at the thought of the two of them.
Feeling that there were no friends, Ms. Ningsih decided to clean up Haji Hamid's house and cook for breakfast. Though usually if there is Mia, Ms. Ningsih should not do any work. Mia treated Bu Ningsih like a queen. Between happy and bad for Ms. Ningsih. Because usually Bu Ningsih always do everything alone, especially after Mia married Haji Hamid.
In the past, every day Ms. Ningsih had to take care of a big, spoiled and annoying baby. Who else if not Mr. Baskoro. But after her divorce, Ms. Ningsih felt human. Live free and very comfortable. No one scolds him every day. Even now, it was precisely Mia forbidding him to do any work. The reason was that Mia did not want to see her mother soy sauce.
It is noble heart Mia. Although busy with her college assignments, but Mia can still share time with her homework. His status as a student did not interfere with his status as a wife.
It was 8am, Haji Hamid and Mia's room was still sealed shut. Ms. Ningsih had finished cleaning the house and cooking for breakfast.
"What time do they fight? How come the clock hasn't woken up yet?" mummified Bu Ningsih.
Actually the desire to eavesdrop on it is very large, making sure that they are really still sleeping. Or maybe they fought again this morning? Nah! No way! Bu Ningsih shook his head. Rejected his mind that drifted everywhere in the morning. Besides the feeling of wanting to eavesdrop on him, there is a sense of worry discovered by Haji Hamid. Bu Ningsih imagined that while eavesdropping, Haji Hamid suddenly opened the door. What reason would Bu Ningsih tell Haji Hamid? Could lose face.
Ms. Ningsih decided to go back inside her room. Watch a movie on a television screen attached to the wall of his room. Although Bu Ningsih did not know what event was interesting, but it was better than having to eavesdrop on Haji Hamid's room.
Again Bu Ningsih was mistaken with Haji Hamid and Mia. Actually, Haji Hamid and Mia have been awake since dawn. It's just that after the prayer, Haji Hamid held Mia to go wrong and cook first. Haji Hamid is still curious about his dream last night. Suddenly, the fear of the dream made Haji Hamid want to repent and stay away from Dev. Haji Hamid does not want if his life is a treasure in this world, must end in the heat of hell fire.
Mia did not approve or forbid it. For Mia, all decisions are entirely in the hands of Haji Hamid. Although there is honestly a sense of gratitude when knowing the good intentions of Haji Hamid, but Mia limited her expression. Mia was afraid Haji Hamid would be offended if the language had offended Dev.
"I'm confused how to convey all these decisions to Dev, Mia. You got any ideas?" ask Haji Hamid.
"No," Mia replied as she shook her head.
"Mia you don't seem happy to hear me repent?" ask Haji Hamid upset.
"It's not so, Mr. Haji. Mia was just shocked. Yes thank you if Pak Haji has realized all the mistakes that have happened so far. But Mia is also the same, confused to face Dev." Mia lowered her head in fear that her words were wrong and offended Haji Hamid.
But unexpectedly, Haji Hamid looks so happy to hear Mia's words.
"I'm lucky to have you, Mia. You're the right guy. You can accept all my flaws. Thanks for everything, Mia." Haji Hamid smiled looking at Mia.
Mia is so happy with all this. Like being given a special gift. His hopes and prayers have been heard by God.
"About Dev" said Haji Hamid.
"Don't tell Mia to tell Pak Haji. Mia doesn't want to" said Mia.
"Haha... Don'worry. I won't get you involved, Mia. I promise!" haji Hamid.
"Then what is the plan of Hajj?" ask Mia.
"For the time being, I'll still reply to all Dev's messages. But slowly I will begin to retreat and explain all my desire to return to the straight path" said Haji Hamid.
Either to give Dev time, or instead to try to get used to him to being detached from Dev. Because of the relationship that has been established for a long time, it is impossible to just disappear. There may be a lot of drama, but Haji Hamid will try to stick to his decision.
"Mia at least understands how Mr. Haji feels, that love can't just go away quickly. But one thing, if we are sure of what we are doing then everything will happen easily. God is always with us. Enjoy every process" Mia said.
"Mia, the correct lecture! After we finish college, I'll leave you. With my knowledge and some of my treasure, I'm sure you and Ms. Ningsih will live a decent life." Haji Hamid's tone of voice touched Mia's heart.
Leaving? What does it mean to divorce? The widow? The status that Mia was most afraid of in her life. Especially after getting used to living with Haji Hamid. Although during her marriage Haji Hamid never considered her as a wife, but the treatment of Haji Hamid made Mia very dependent on him.
The attitude of snacking and attention though sometimes annoying makes Mia will be very lost if Haji Hamid really leaves her. The loss happened because Mia felt the affection of a father from Haji Hamid. All the attitudes and treatment he never got from Pak Baskoro.
"Mia, why are you crying?" ask Haji Hamid.
"I'm afraid to be a widow, Mr. Haji." Mia innocently answered Haji Hamid's question.
"What?" asked Haji Hamid to hold back his laughter.
"Sir Hajiiiii, don't mock Mia like that" Mia said irritatedly as she looked at Haji Hamid's expression.
"Mia, listen to me! You're better a widow than a lifetime with me. I try to be good, but that doesn't mean I can be a good husband. Our age is far away. You're still young. You deserve a better husband than me. You have to live like a normal human being. Married and have children. I can't Mia!" haji Hamid.
The kid? Even Mia never thought of that. Yang Mia knows, college until the end with good grades. Working and making money to make his mother happy. But Haji Hamid's remarks made him quite surprised.
"Ah, Mr. Haji is already! Mia doesn't want to change that. Better Mia clean up and cook first. Mia's stomach was also rumbling. It's already 7" said Mia, pointing to the wall clock.
Haji Hamid nodded. Understand that Mia will not be that easy to accept all her decisions. But Haji Hamid is sure, as time goes by Mia will understand the circumstances.
"Yes," said Haji Hamid to invite Mia to come out of his room.
But just opening the door, Mia immediately closed it back.
"What's up Mia?" ask Haji Hamid.
"There's mommy. Haji sir first. Mia was afraid of being asked if 7 o'clock had just come out" said Mia.
"Just kid! What else am I. What will I answer? Bu Ningsih can kepo. You're the one who came out first, you're his son." Haji Hamid encourages Mia to come out first.
But Mia managed to escape and hide behind the tubub Haji Hamid. Now it's Mia's turn to push Haji Hamid.
"Sir Haji first. Haji has this house. After all, the mother would not dare to ask the tiger-assortment with her daughter-in-law, different from her child." Mia asks Haji Hamid to come out.
"So who wants to go out first?" ask Mia.
"You," replied Haji Hamid pointing to Mia.
"No, Mr. Haji." Mia refused.
But neither of them would give up. Haji Hamid and Mia no one wants to leave the room first. Finally they sat down again on the sofa thinking of a way to get them out without any strange questions from Bu Ningsih. That is why until 8 am this morning, neither Haji Hamid nor Mia had yet come out of her room.
