Unite In Love

Soothing Coffee (Part2)

Tok.Tok-sign.Tok.

The sound of knocking coming from the door leaf broke the silence and concentration of that beautiful figure. He massaged his head with his right hand while leaning on his great chair.

"Lake in!" He said in a soft voice almost inaudible. He was still massaging his head when someone came while carrying a tray of coffee that was still pumping hot steam.

Slowly, the beautiful netra began to open while staring at the face of the young woman who brought coffee. Honestly, he felt excited just by smelling the aroma of coffee coming out of the hands of the woman who stood firmly in front of him. Of course the woman was still standing because she had not given her orders.

"Put the coffee on the table by the couch." The handsome man ordered while pointing towards a table not too far from his desk.

"Good sir."

Without a second thought, the beautiful man walked straight to the sofa and enjoyed his hot coffee. The handsome face carved a smile, a smile that he rarely showed in front of the employees. Really, the coffee he enjoyed this time caressed his nose and tongue. He could not even give value to the pleasure that was in his hands.

"Take this money and enjoy your lunch! Thanks for the coffee. It's very delicious.

From today you are in charge of making me coffee. Stay like this, I mean it's like it stays like this, don't change. Neither sweet nor bitter, this is really my taste!" Said the man to the young lady standing in front of him. He really could not see the woman standing in front of him trembling from the joy of seeing her handsome face.

"You can go." Keep the guy up again.

At least, on this boring day I can still enjoy my favorite coffee. You're really lucky Ibra. Ibra muttered with a happy smile.

A second later he stayed alone in his office, although alone he really did not feel sad, because he knew it was not his own sad, sad, the sad thing is when you have someone who loves you so much and you love him so much but you prefer to leave him for reasons that are not worth it.

How's my past? Are you all right? I'm fine here, there are times when I suffer from reminiscing about the past. It's not that I'm a fool, it's just that the wound you left behind still hasn't healed completely.

This is how I repay you, making myself more successful than anyone else. And work harder than anyone. I want to shine like the moon, so that when you come back you will feel glare by my light.

I want you to regret. Sorry for preferring a useless career to me that will be by your side and make you happy until the end of my life. Ibra muttered to herself as she stared at the passing car on the highway. The cars looked like ants walking from his twenty-five-story office building.

...***...

I got home at exactly 15:00. Just setting foot in front of the door, my net was staring intently at my two favorite people. They look happy without me, even the crisp sound of my sweet son's laughter fills my sense of hearing.

"Auntie... Auntie can't eat this! This is special for Mommy."

"Is it just your precious Mommy? Aunts are precious too! After all, the pizza you keep like a pearl is a Auntie who buys it. If Aunt ate it just a little, your Mommy wouldn't know." Nissa seduced my sweet son while putting on her cute face, no matter how hard she tried my beloved son would never let anyone take away the things he had saved for me, including Nissa.

I was still standing at the door, watching the warm conversation of the two most precious people in my life. I myself do not know why they do not realize my existence, are they too late in jokes and laughter to not hear me open the door? I don't know, I didn't know that myself.

I wanted to say hello, somehow my mouth seemed to be locked tightly. I didn't want to interrupt my handsome son's conversation with my best friend, seeing the happiness that emanated from Nissa and Husain's faces making me shed tears, my words clenched on my lips.

"Mommy!" One speech Husain managed to disperse my reverie. My thin lips carved a smile.

"Mommy's home? Since when? What Mommy knows, Aunt Nissa is very naughty." Report Husain while blushing his thin lips. He folded his two small arms in front of his chest. Out of nowhere she learned like that, her black netra stared at my innocent face.

"Darling... Let Aunt Nissa eat whatever she wants. If Mommy's proud son is always healthy, that's enough for Mommy." Reply slowly.

"You should know, son. The thing that makes Mommy happy the most is when Mommy sees you and Aunt Nissa smiling. So Mommy's proud son should stay happy. You got it, right?" My side again while pinching Husain's nose slowly. The sweet child could only nod while holding my finger.

01.00 Midnight.

Usually at this hour I am still fast asleep and will wake up at 02.39 for Tahajjud Prayer. I don't know why tonight I can't close my eyes, as if something bad is waiting in front of me. Something I didn't want to go through even in a dream. My fear of losing my sweet son is far greater than this loss of life.

"Son, you need to stay by Mommy's side. Staying away from you is the toughest punishment for Mommy. Mommy doesn't want to go through Mommy's days without you being there.

Mommy loves you more than anything in the world." I said as I stroked the top of Husain's head who always slept beside me.

Husain is like the sun in winter, my heart feels warm just by looking at his smile. Had I followed Nissa's desire to leave Husain alone, I'd be sure I would be the one who would be gone, not in sorrow! Not in grief! Or not in regret.

What's wrong with you Lulu Andriana? Why are you bringing up the past? I muttered to myself while patting my handsome son's arm softly.

"I'm sure the Papa must be this handsome! My son is very handsome, whenever others flatter him I always blush in shame." I said as I stared at every inch of Husain's face. Everything looks like a beautiful masterpiece with no gaps.

His nose was stark, and his radiant-looking net calmed every eye that looked at him. Straight hair, black eyebrows and white teeth neatly arranged like ants going hand in hand. Added dimples Pipi that add to its perfection. And another one, Husayn's skin is very white, whiter than mine.

Beauty and Righteousness are the Grace of the Power, as beautiful as any person and as handsome as any one is all that is useless before the God who grasps the Soul, for the Lord does not see that, the Lord sees beauty from your heart. That is why I have always educated Husain in the best way I can, making him a patient, kind and grateful Son.

"Mommy... Why isn't Mommy sleeping?" Husain asked in a typical waking voice, he hugged my tired body tightly, his voice barely audible.

"Mommy just woke up, son. Sleep on!"

"Husain couldn't sleep if Mommy was still awake."

"Mommy hopes Mommy's handsome son will always be a submissive and kind-hearted child." I smiled as I briefly peeked at Husain's head.

"Is Mommy thinking about something? Tell Husayn, Husayn promises to always be the proud son of Mommy."

I smiled as I fixed the blanket that covered half of Husain's body. His little arms were getting closer and closer to his embrace. Truly, my heart is filled with infinite gratitude. Great happiness that is present fills the soul, hoping that this happiness will last forever even though I know there is no happiness without sadness in it.

Dred.Dred.Draw.

The vibrations from the cell phone I put on the nightstand paid for my daydream. I was afraid that Husain who had just fallen asleep would wake up again, whether the poor man dared to disturb in the middle of the night blind. However, I slowly grabbed the phone while flicking my thin lips.

What is Lulu doing? I know Lulu must be awake. Lais wants help, brother. Mr. Ibra just wants to drink coffee made by brother. Can you help Lais make it?

Ciihhhhh!

I grinned while staring at the phone with an annoyed look. When I was confused about what to do, Lais asked me to help teach her how to make coffee for a boss that I never even saw her face flat.

Fopping. I muttered to myself as I prepared to sleep next to my son, Husain Arora.
