Winarsih Waiting
Episode 15's

I kept crying while hugging my father and asking him not to leave me. 

"Dad... Daddy.. Don't go, Yep!" I shouted as my father tried to let go of my embrace. I sniffled, and kept calling dad. 

"Win…. " A voice called my name. 

"Win, wakeup. You haven't eaten since" he said, patting my face. "Yes, God! Win, you have a fever, Win." That voice sounded panicked, did I hear wrong? 

I slowly opened my eyes, my eyes like they were not open. 

"Win, are you awake? This is eat first." It was Bu Sukma's voice, I rubbed my eyes to see. 

"Why are you, Win? I'm worried there's nothing with you. You keep screaming! Your body is hot again." Now I can see it, even though my eyes are only open a little. 

I met my dad only in dreamland, but it felt like it was real. I really was crying. 

"So you were dreaming, huh? Sampe shouted call dad. If you can tell, what was your dream?" asked Bu Sukma, now his gaze saw me pity. There was no longer the cynical and hateful gaze like before. He even gently stroked my hand now. 

"Eh... You ate first, you must be hungry right? You didn't eat this lunch." Bu Sukma's attention now made me feel something inside my chest, it felt like I wanted to explode. Not because I was angry or sad, but I was happy, getting attention from him. Is this what it feels like to have a mother? 

"Behold, I'll grab some food for you, yes," she said before stepping out of the room. Yes, God, what's wrong with Bu Sukma? Why is he suddenly so attentive to me? Just this morning I saw his cynical gaze, but now it has become a dear look. What's wrong with her? 

"Here you eat, you must eat a lot, let your grandchildren be healthy!" Whahuh? He called my son a grandson? Really this? Now my tears are back, ah... why have I been crying so easily lately? Weepy! 

"Here, how dumb!" Bu Sukma thrust out the plate in his hand. "sorry mother, yes!" he said again, as I just looked at him, confused. 

"Ke– why are you apologizing?" tanyaku. 

"Have, you eat first, let there be energy later the same story mother." Mother held out a spoonful of rice, about to bribe me. 

"Let me alone, Mom!" I said, then took the plate from Bu Sukma's hand. 

I also eat well. I am already very hungry. It turned out that the clock had shown almost at half-four in the afternoon. As I recall, I was calling Ms. Tri. I don't know what happened after that.

"This, nemenin Win again eat. I think he has a fever again" Sukma explained. 

"Fever? How can you, Win? The wind, huh?" looks like Mira's worried about me. 

"Let him finish eating first, Mir!" Bu Sukma slightly glanced at his daughter-in-law. Mira smiled. Then he left, while Bu Sukma still faithfully accompanied me. I don't know what got into him.

*****

After finishing eating, Mba Mira and Bu Sukma still faithfully accompanied me. 

"Mom, why are you apologizing?" manya curious. 

"Mom's attitude has gone too far with you yesterday. I'm afraid you're just benefiting your daughter-in-law, just don't know how to express it. This Mira is a person who easily believes in people, easily pity and pity others." he said while looking at me, maybe he wanted to dive into my heart, whether there was bad intentions on them, he said, and of course he will never find it because I never intend to deceive them. 

"We were, to be exact, these people were cheated. There was a woman coming to this house, somehow she got here at first. By ourselves. In pregnancy too. But she's still pregnant young, only three months in. He said his parents were incapable people, he said at the tip of the island of Java. He said he wanted his son to be born to be adopted as they were, because the woman could not afford to pay. " Bu Sukma's eyes glare. 

"Maybe because my human child really wants to have a baby, although not a biological child, they immediately believe it. So the woman stayed here until she gave birth. The cost is all Mira and the God who bear. The kid's cute, the girl, we all love the kid." Bu Sukma was silent for a moment, now his eyes that had been glazed, began to drip clear circles.

"Mother actually lives in the city, only once in a while here. So, when the baby was born, the mother came here, but could not stay long, because it could not leave Ratih, the brother of God, too long. He was still in High School. So after Mom came home, Mira and the gods were working again, well that's a woman to throw tantrums. He'll stay home alone. Back then, he left without excuse, take his son and besides he also stole Mira's jewelry and precious metals, there were many. Mother doesn't know exactly either. Anyway all the dismantled, valuables that can be brought, he took all. When they came home, they found the house in disarray, there was no woman and her child. At first we thought the house had been robbed, the woman and her child we thought were kidnapped. But luckily this house used to be using cctv, and it turns out the woman was the culprit and she was helped by a man." Bu Sukma sighed. Now I'm starting to understand why his attitude towards me is a little bit annoying. 

"When she's here treated like a queen, everything is served. Previously he also asked for ten million dollars, he said to make his mother's capital to open a small shop. But all is lost. Whether bod*h or too good these two are, I don't understand." The mother now looked at me gently, even she smiled at me, this is the first time Bu Sukma smiled at me. 

"Everytime, when they tell you about you, mom does not agree, I don't want to be disappointed a second time, but this is even insistent! There is no kapoknya, so I agree as long as you live here. I have to watch, don't want any more help!" Now the mother took a slow look at her daughter-in-law's nose, and Mira smiled. A beautiful sight in my opinion. The pair of in-laws and daughter-in-laws loved each other. 

"This, if remembered again about the incident, always answer 'nothing ma, God is good and fair. Don't think about unnecessary. Let God work next, we can do our part, do good to anyone. Even if the person is evil as we.' quarrel.en want it not uwel-uwel this child," With a funny expression, Bu Sukma imitated the voice of his daughter-in-law, making us laugh. 

"So far, we're worried that she, uh even the mother who was lectured. Basic, my mother's good daughter-in-law." said Bu Sukma, squeezing Mama's hand. Seeing that, suddenly something flowed warmly within my chest. What an amazing sight, I smiled looking at them. I am so happy to see their togetherness. If I had in-laws, would it be like this? My inner.

"Then, why did Mom suddenly change?" I asked, when Bu Sukma did not speak anymore. The middle-aged woman's facial features changed slightly, but she kept smiling.
