Not the Cinderella story
Hugging Session

After work, Irsyad picked up a cold drink in the refrigerator and drank it straight away.

"Dad, said bu uyu nda oyeh num beydiyi," Nadia scolded Irsyad.

"Ha. ha. nah loh, the same defeat of children. Can't drink standing up, Irsyad."

"Consider uyu num beydiiyi rich capi, father."

"Not a cow but a cow, dear father's son."

"Yes, capi."

"Cow."

"Cute."

"Ha.. ha.. emang learn the same teacher ma'am where have you been?"

"So I'm Biajay A, Ba, A, Ca."

"A, Ba, Ta, Tsa."

"Yes, Dad. A, Ba, A, Ca."

"The teacher's pretty, A. Nice as well."

"Keep on Irsyad's business what, mah?"

"There's nothing. Mamah just said that it was Nadia's teacher. Her name is Adinda Nursyifa, Lira's best friend."

"Yes, mamah as if Irsyad was going to be interested in that same teacher najai Nadia. The story's overrated."

"A, do not often angry with the same mamah or sensi mamah. Mamah sometimes likes heartache if Aa is rich. Mamah not only thought of Aa's happiness, but also Nadia."

"Yes mamah bahasnya so women continue. I need time, mah."

Nadia had gone to the living room with her favorite doll and a bottle of pacifier. Usually Nadia will fall asleep by holding a doll and also a bottle of pacifier on her lips and will fall asleep by itself. That's Nadia's habit of going to sleep. Not to forget the television featuring cartoons that will accompany Nadia to her sleep. It is easy to make Nadia sleep as long as the beloved doll is not lost.

Irsyad and Miss Maryam are still talking at the dinner table while Nadia is cool herself.

"I need time to open my heart again, ma'am."

"You know, A. But according to mama, Aa was not intent to open her heart again. No effort."

"Koq mamah said that."

"If Aa prayers should be reported?"

"Whatever."

"Emang Aa has not prayed for a long time. God doesn't love me, Mom. The proof is that when I love Eva, God takes Eva. I pray God take Eva, right?"

"Every human being must feel dead. Just a different time. God took Eva when she gave birth to Nadia because that was the time God set in taking Eva's life. Don't be arrogant, A. The arrogant man denounces and rejects the truth. And that, you're A!" Press ma'am Maryam.

"Yes I'm arrogant, Mah."

The eyes of Miss Maryam teary, heart pain saw the child continues to fall to face the death of the wife 3 years ago.

"Nobody hurts more than Aa continues to lament the death of Eva. Mama was sick when Aa was far from God." Ms. Maryam said that with tears that began to wet her cheeks that had started to wrinkle.

Irsyad can only look down he realized all this time wrong and there is no intention to rise in the face of life in the future.

"A, if Aa were far from God, how would Aa give education to Nadia. Nadia's responsibility is Aa. Look at Nadia, A!" Maryam pointed to the middle room. There Nadia fell asleep with an empty teat bottle and still held it.

"Will Aa be a bad example for Nadia? Does Aa want Nadia to fall into a mess like Aa is today?"

"Astagfirullah." it was the inner Irsyad who realized so great a mistake. Even now Irsyad has made the mother cry. How bad he is at the moment.

Irsyad stepped towards the mother who was crying. Irsyad hugged Maryam tightly.

"I'm sorry Irsyad. Irsyad has made mamah nangis. Irsyad lost grip. Guide Irsyad back, mah."

Maryam's mother grew sobbing in her son's arms.

"Silent friend Aa wants to start again. Mom didn't tell Aa to forget Eva. Mom just wants Aa back to the way she used to be."

Irsyad nodded her head in the arms of the mother even Irsyad was crying in the arms of the mother.

The crying event was over and Miss Maryam took off her child's arms.

"Sholat Isya first, A. Do you remember his intentions?"

"Still be."

"Huh.huh...huh..." Miss Maryam laughed as her hands wiped away the trail of tears on her cheeks.

Before moving to his room and performing Isya prayers, Irsyad first raised Nadia to move Nadia to her room.
