Waiting Quintessence

Chapter 3

Maghrib's azan voice began to reverberate, Tania woke up from her sleep, "i fell asleep huh" he said to me, I smiled as he said, "your sleep is so good Tan, surely you are tired ya today" Tania nodded her head.

Before arriving at the terminal me and Tania down in front of the Permata Hijau housing, happened to be the housing where I lived in front of the Tania housing, from which we continued our journey with an online ojek.

"Assalamu'alaikum.", I said as I knocked on the door.

"Thank you" the voice of the little boy answered my greetings from behind the door.

The door opened with Bi Ning and Daffa at the door. Bi Ning is the one who helped to take care of this house and also to take care of Daffa, my son. Daffa Airlangga Pratama, a three-year-old boy, has a handsome face when he says I am his mother.

"Waalaikumsalam mbak Kinan, enter mbak" said bi Ning.

"Mother...Daffa kangen mother" Daffa immediately hugged my leg.

"Mother also misses Daffa kiddo" I said as I carried her and kissed her puffed cheeks.

"Aunty Tika where dear do not seem to be looking", I asked Daffa while my eyes looked for the figure I asked.

"There was a bun, Aunt Tika was on her night, Aunt Tika was busy again" Daffa explained.

"Ohh yes, but you don't bother Auntie Tika, dear" I said again.

"Dong bun, I'm a good boy, ask deh cama Aunty Tika, I'm a good boy right Mbah, I'm not naughty right mbah?" said Daffa to bi Ning, said Daffa, bi Ning smiled. Daffa I used to call bi Ning as Mbah.

"Daffa is not naughty kok Bun, Daffa is a pinter child, does not disturb Aunt Tika even Daffa nemenin Aunt yes dear," suddenly Tika's voice came out of her room and she approached Daffa and kissed Daffa on the cheek.

"Mother's hero is indeed a thumbs up" I said as I pointed my two thumbs at Daffa.

"Mother where souvenirs tuk me", suddenly Daffa said, "said mommy would bring souvenirs if come chekalang" said Daffa continued. Yep.. Last week I did promise Daffa some souvenirs but I forgot because just now when Ryan came home forced me to take you so no memory to buy something for Daffa.

"Sorry mother, dear, mother forgot to bring souvenirs to Daffa, nothing, dear, you are not angry with your mother, how about tomorrow we take a walk to the playground", I said to Daffa when I saw his disappointed face. But indeed Daffa is a good child, from a small he never bothers, never ask for anything strange, maybe Daffa understands with his mother's distress. Actually, if I bring chocolate, Daffa is also happy, but I forgot it.

"Makasi ya dear, the mother's child is smart yes, lop yu", I said.

" Lop yu tu mother," replied Daffa.

"How about now Daffa Temenin Aunty to the minimarket that just opened it" said Tika.

"Which Tan.", asked Daffa.

"That's a lot ahead there that when we pass that time again installed kayak balloons at the birthday event" said Tika explained.

"Oh yes Daffa remembers Tan" Daffa said.

"There are people who want to buy Auntie there and Daffa can buy ice cream, yes Bun" said Tika, I know Tika's intention may be to eliminate Daffa's disappointment.

"What.... ice cream, benel Bun can I eat ice clump?", asked Daffa with eyes sparkling with pleasure when he heard the word ice cream. Indeed, the one who usually forbid Daffa eat sweet at night, so he asked me, but tonight I allowed him to make amends.

"Dear, tonight Daffa can eat ice cream but not much, son, one yes", I told Daffa.

"makaci mama" he said with a laugh on his face.

"Mother, we go first, mother's drug," said Tika as she led Daffa toward her motor matic.

"Calamikum mama" said Daffa waving, he stood in front of Tika sitting holding the handlebar of the motorbike, I waved with a smile and said, " wa'alaikumsalam dear, be careful, son, inget can't be naughty there. And the motor finally started to run at a slow speed.
