A bright morning, after finishing homework Anna and her mother prepare to go to Grandma's house.they bring souvenirs that have been bought yesterday.
" undaaa, undaaaaa"
There was a cry from 2-year-old Arkan who was crying hysterically in the guest room Grandma, Ibrahim and Grandma were trying to calm Arkan down.
Ira and Anna, who were in front of Grandma's house, got off the bike and went inside.
"Why are you crying?" Ira said while holding her sister's child.
The faces of Ibrahim and Grandma looked sad, not knowing what they were hiding.
Anna who held the gift for her grandmother put the package on the table.
while Arkan was still in Ira's arms, his cries began to subside.
Anna gives a package of snacks that she specifically bought for Arkan yesterday, seeing the snacks that many Arkans ask to be dropped from Ira's sling.
"Wah it turns out Arkan wants to snack" said Anna girang.
"Here let the big brother right" said Anna while reaching for the snacks that Arkan had chosen.
"Where Is Luci Buk?" ask Ira.
Abraham and Grandma stared at each other.
"Sit down first Ira, Come on Ibrahim you sit down too" said the grandmother.
Anna sat on the floor not far from the guest chair accompanying Arkan to spend his snacks.
"Ira, last night Susi left the house" said the grandmother with a sigh of disappointment.
"What's going on?" said Ira was shocked because all this time Ira considered her sister's household to look harmonious.
"Lusi wants Ibrahim to buy him a car" Ibrahim said.
"Car?" said Ira was shocked to hear the root of the problem of his brother and wife.
"Actually already a year ago Lusi wants to buy a car. his desire can still be Ibrahim hold by giving it understanding. yesterday when at his parents' house, Lusi brought it up again. last night unbeknownst to Ku Lusi left home. Arkan always wakes up looking for his mother because that's why Arkan is crying" Ibrahim explained.
"Did Lusi ask for a new car?" ask Ira.
"No." replied Ibrahim.
"How much savings do you have?" ask Ira.
"We just had 20,000,000 feet of savings."
Ira thought for a moment.
"Do you know about this?" ask Ira.
"Your father doesn't know, last night I watch the night, now your father sleeps in the room." replied Grandma.
Anna's grandfather was a security guard at PT. Palm Lestari is the largest oil palm plantation in their village. Anna's grandfather has worked at PT.Palm Lestari since he was 35 years old. now the grandfather power is still in use by the company because the grandfather is a diligent and trustworthy worker.
"How do you think this matter should be resolved, Abraham? did you fulfill Lusi's wish or ignore him?" ask Ira.
"Mm Ibrahim is confused, it is impossible for Ibrahim to buy a car. Ibrahim does not have a garden to increase income, while the current monthly salary of 4,700,000 Abraham has entered overtime money."
"What is the normal income you receive each month?" ask Ira.
"Yes, that minimum income can sometimes be higher than that" Ibrahim replied.
"Anna?" said Grandfather in a voice waking up his sleep with a smile and walking to the back room to wash his face.
"Anna please make room for this fruit" Ira said.
Anna immediately went to the kitchen to find a dinner plate for the fruit they had brought and arranged the fruits on the plate. Anna sat down next to Arkan.
After washing his face, Grandpa sat on the guest chair gathered with the others. Now the four of them are already sitting in a square shape.
"Where's Lusi?" ask Grandpa.
"Lusi went away from Yah's house" replied Ibrahim with a bowed face.
grandfather frowned, as if wanting to hear the information more clearly.
"Lusi, still strong on his desire to buy a car" said Grandma.
There was no change in Grandfather's face, but his mind said. "formerly Purwoto son-in-law who I rejected turned out to be a good man who was able to make Ira happy. even leaving enough treasure for my children and grandchildren while Luci the daughter-in-law I chose for Ibrahim turned out to be very disappointing." Inner grandfather.
During his time as a daughter-in-law at home Grandpa Lusi never wanted to boil drinking water on the grounds that it could damage his face if exposed to the heat of the fire and smoke of the kitchen. Cooking to eat her husband was not ignored by Susi. he was just busy with HP, gathering with the neighbors and keeping quiet in the room.
When the girl Lusi diligently works, she is not even ashamed to sell around the village.
Do not want the problem of Ibrahim protracted, finally grandfather voiced.
"How did you decide Ibrahim?" ask Grandpa.
"Ibrahim is trying to realize the wishes of Lusi Father, but Ibrahim still needs time because Ibrahim's savings are not enough."
"Well, you try to call Luci, find him, talk to him well, he still needs Susi Arkan" said Grandpa.
"But, what if Lusi stays in his stance?" ask Ibrahim.
Grandpa looked at Ira and Grandma.
" Ira, can you lend to your brother?" ask Grandpa.
Ira seemed to think.
Grandma seemed to understand the answer Ira would give.
"The legacy of Mas Purwoto is still 60,000,000 more Yah. but it is not possible to loan everything, because Anna's school requires a monthly fee. if Ira also loaned the money will be repayable every month" said Ira.
"How is Ibrahim, how much are you willing to pay?" ask Grandpa.
Abraham was silent while thinking.
"If brother Ira were willing to lend 50,000,000, Ibrahim would pay 1,500,000 monthly until the debt was paid off. would Ira be willing to help?" ask Ibrahim.
Ira thought for a moment.
"Alright, Brother is willing to lend you." replied Ira without thinking much.
"But you have to remember Ibrahim.it's orphan money, your nephew's money.Never cheat!" grandma said affirming.
"God willing, Ibrahim will be trustworthy in paying off the debt" replied Ibrahim firmly.
"Now the way out of your problems we have found. Look for the car information that you will buy.but you must make sure Lusi goes home first." said Grandpa.
"Yes, Father." replied Ibrahim as he stood up from his seat and prepared to step away.
"Where are you going to find Lusi?" ask grandpa.
"Ibrahim wants to go to his parents' house, because from last night Iusi HP is not active.maybe he went to his parents' house" replied Ibrahim.
"Alright go. but remember, before your car debt is paid off do not meet the wishes of Lusi if he still asks for the unnatural.this time let us surrender." said Grandfather firmly while staring at Ibrahim.
Ibrahim nodded his head in agreement with what his father had said.
Now in the room there lived five of them while eating the fruits of the field they continued the chat.
"How's Anna's school registration going, is it done?" ask Grandpa.
"Yes, thank God smoothly.the payment has also been completed" said Ira explained.
"Grandpa, Anna and mom have bought Hp yesterday. Where is Grandpa's HP? so Anna can keep Anna's and Mom's numbers on Grandpa's phone." said Anna.
"That's Grandpa's HP on the TV shelf" said the grandfather as he pointed at the TV.
Anna took Grandpa's HP and stored his number as well as Mother's number in Grandfather's HP.
"Where's Anna's HP, Grandma wants to see" said Grandma.
Anna walked up to Grandma's chair while holding Arkan.
"That's the same thing with Mom, let me be fat." said Ira.
Anna gives Arkan to her mother and then Anna sits next to Grandma, Anna shows her new HP to grandmother. Anna directs her front camera to take a photo with Grandma and Grandpa. Not to forget Anna also took a photo of her mother who was riding Arkan. They laughed at Anna's action that was seen showing off.
"Anna do not get because having HP affects how you learn, let alone get lost in cyberspace" said Grandpa warned.
"Anna also has to remember our calls here often.it's okay there Anna has to keep calling us" she added.
"Yes, Grandma. Anna will often give word. Pray Anna is always Istiqomah in kindness." said Anna while hugging her Grandma.
"Ira, are you going to stay in that house? actually We always worry about you. What else is beautiful you just live alone.do you have to live in this house?" said Grandpa softly.
Ira smiled a little.
"Either la Well, I also don't know if I'll be able to stay there alone" Ira replied.
"How about if you stay here, you can stay at your house during the day." Grandma suggested.
"Alright Buk, Ira will try." replied Ira.
"It turns out it's lunch time, it deserves my stomach hungry" said Grandpa.
" Let's all have lunch. Grandma had cooked a lot earlier." said Grandma spirit.
They ate lunch with gourmand. Arkan also ate fed Ira. since Anna and Ira came Arkan was no longer crying. let alone the snacks that Anna brought are still many.

Ibrahim sat on the porch of his father-in-law's house with Lusi. Luci sat sideways, unwilling to look at her husband's face, while Ibrahim faithfully sat straight to the Wife.
"It turns out you still care about me, have to wait for me to leave the house first you grant my wish. have you Mas, you treat me as if I am a matre woman. you know for yourself, our neighbors already have many cars.they also work in the same PT with you. you are sok alim, use events do not want all car loans." lusi said with an angry tone.
"You do not know our financial resources only depend on Mas's salary at PT. it. how about mas fired? surely the car we credit will not be repaid." said Ibrahim gently to his wife trying to give understanding.
"Trus why did Mas say he wanted to buy a car? where do you get money if you don't owe?" ask Lusi.
"Sister Ira is willing to give us a loan, but we have to repay it every month because Anna also needs that money, let alone Anna's school in the city" Ibrahim explained.
"Your brother is just a good pretender when the money has long been saved" said Lusi by turning his eyes.
"Astaghfirullah, have you been after Anna's late father's money? you know how they got the money.are you willing to trade your happiness for less money?" said Ibrahim with an annoyed tone.know the contents of his wife's heart that had been eyeing the money left by Anna's father.
Feeling trapped by her own words, Lusi finally chose to be gentle.
"I'm sorry Mas, I don't mean that.I sincerely love Anna, you know that all this time Anna also often helped me take care of Arkan.sorry "he said while prostrating before her husband who was sitting.
"Mas, I promise I'll help you pay off our loan debt as Ira. so that the debt is paid off quickly and Ira's brother can use the money for Anna's education expenses. I also don't want to be labeled as an aunt who abandoned her own niece." said Susi while grasping her husband's fingers hoping her husband is not angry anymore.
"Well, I keep your promise.Now let's go home to Arkan, he cried this morning." said Ibrahim, standing ready to leave from his seat.
Lusi seemed to smile with satisfaction, because the car that he had been craving would soon be owned.
