Worshiping Mother, Forgetting Daddy
“You're lucky to have an older brother like Kinan”
Kinan was silent, on the doorstep of the room, he saw his mother walking limped into the kitchen.
Blindly leavened, with sleepy eyes he walked over to his mother.
the soles of his feet clashed with the coldness of the ceramic floor, the sound of the study of surah-surah was heard enveloping the dawn.
“Mother,Why?”kinan's voice made the Mother flinch, by stroking her chest, the Mother turned to look at him
”Jeez Kinan, you made me shocked. Why are you waking up at this time?”asked the Mother, while her hands deftly washed the dishes and dirty glasses that accumulate in the washing.
“Kinan kebangun” replied Kinan sober, he took his steps towards the dining table.
then sat there watching the mother who was busy struggling with her activities.
“Mother is out again today?”asked Kinan, his cheeks were now touching on the dining table, resting to fight his sleepiness that was slowly reappearing.
long silent, there was only the roar of the dawn breeze, as well as the clinking of the glass plates being heard,
finally the mother spoke
”today I want to register your school, so you follow ya”Jawabnya without looking at the Princess.
Kinan straightened his body, with a face of disbelief, he said
”Truly?! So Kinan is going to school soon?!”his words were loud as if his sleepiness was fading.
“Ssssstttt, Your aunt is still sleeping”pap the Mother, her index finger is in contact with her lips, gesturing for Kinan to calm down.
Kinan reflex closed his mouth with both hands
”iya, you sleep again. Later you even sleepy”terus the Mother again continued her words.
With a flowering stomach, as if there were butterflies flying, Kinan walked towards their room again.
He was impatient, and he couldn't wait to go to school again.
Slowly, time passed,
Kinan's eyelids twitched uneasily as he felt a touch on his cheek
”emhh” with his raucous voice he opened his eyes, that's when he met his mother
“You are very good, from the moment I woke up, but did not get up-wake”ucap the Mother, Kinan was sitting down, with staggered steps and a towel on his shoulders, he walked towards the bathroom.
Cleanse his body, so that he is ready to face this day again.
Shortly after he came out, shortly after opening the bathroom door, he was shocked when his neutrals met with Om Ferdi
“O-om”salam Kinan with his face down, then stepped away in haste, while Om Ferdi just stared at him cynically at a glance then refocused on his phone.
“AKKHHH”
however, a shocking thing happened, with a grimacing face, Aunt Naya stared fiercely at Kinan.
He fell on the floor because he slipped
”how the hell are you?! Huh uh?! What do you want to make a wretched aunt?!”shout Aunt Naya hard.
Kinan who realized Aunt Naya slipped from her hair, could only ask for forgiveness in his heart.
He was scared, his tongue was a tongue.
”why Kin-Jeez Naya you why?”Kinan's mother approached Aunt Naya,
as he tried to help, his hand was deliberately pushed away by his sister.
“Kak, you teach me this Kinan! If your hair is on a towel! Don't let go of kayak gini! If I get to why-why how?!hadehhh”an angry Aunt Naya with her voice that sounded explosive.
Kinan was fixated, his body still frozen in fear.
while his ears continued to hear the voice of his mother who said sorry.
again he made his mother ask for forgiveness for him.
With trembling steps, Kinan retreated towards the door of their room
”M-maafin Kinan,Tante”ucap Kinan then go directly into the room.
Inside, he saw the brother who looked frightened, he approached him and grabbed Aldo's body slowly.
his hands hugged with trembling.
His fear had not gone away, his taste was still tight in his chest.
scared, so scary.
that's how he feels.
Not long after, the mother went into the room.
THE PLAQUE!
THE PLAQUE!
“There's been your behavior every day”
The mother spoke in a pressing voice, her molars rattling with emotion, her hands constantly swinging up slaps.
Kinan cried, with great difficulty holding his voice.
more claustrophobic, his chest became more claustrophobic receiving the Mother's punches on his back.
“Hahhh” the sound of the mother's breath roaring loudly, from the tail of her eyes, can Kinan see the mother sitting on the edge of the mattress.
while breaking his hair, the face of spring turned cold in frustration.
“Udah, now you're ready! We will soon leave”pap the mother, then stand sorting clothes.
With a few breaths, Kinan also participated in preparing himself.
he can't wait to go to school, at least he won't be home until he gets home.
Time passed, with Aldo who was in the arms of the mother, they went hand in hand.
Kinan continued to pay attention to the complex road, looking for where Ojek was ordered by Mother.
however, gradually he could hear the sounds of children seeming to put each other down, he said,
and it's not wrong that it was elementary school.
Not far from Aunt Naya's house, only about a five-minute walk away.
in front of the brown school gate, the mother dropped Aldo off.
they walked to the administrative place.
Procedure for procedures and other things
”until I see you tomorrow huh Kinan”ucap a female teacher named Muslifah it to him,
finally registration is complete.
Holding the uniform in his arms, they walked back together.
with the smile he was trying to hide, Kinan continued to hug the uniform tightly.
”tomorrow wake up early, let's go with the mothers all nyari work again”ucap Mother.
Kinan was stunned, then he looked at Aldo who was between him and his mother
”then Aldo how is bu?”kinan asked, his steps halted, with his head looking up at the mother.
The mother who was in front of him turned around while looking at him confused
”ya Aldo at home aja same aunt Naya” replied the Mother, a confused look on her face shows that she does not understand the meaning of Kinan's expression.
“Why Kin? Something wrong?”ask her mother again
”eh really, really anything, Kinan replied while shaking his head.
However, his mind raged,
he was afraid that Aunt Naya would behave violently to Aldo. Moreover, Aldo is still small, still likes to be distracted and less careful.
His little heart kept praying,
whatever it is he said so that his sister is okay.
because today's fear haunts him so much.
If he could, he would rather take his sister to school than stay at the house of Aunt Naya.
The house he wanted to avoid,
because he didn't know how far Aunt Naya and Om Ferdi would go.
to be sure, he was afraid that it would be faced by Aldo, his sister who only knew how to play.
“Totally?”chirps the Mother, making her wake up from her inner talk
”e-eh yes, let's bu go home”ucap Kinan then he goes first, leaving the real Mother to understand what her daughter is thinking.
Jemari the mother held tightly to Aldo's tanga that linked to her
”You are lucky to have a sister kayak Kinan”ucap the Mother, to Aldo who smiled nodded.
