Our Pride

It was two days ago when we accompanied Hamzah playing with his toys.  We sit together on the mat.  Then, he said something which tickled my curiousity.

 "Ibu Reni called me this afternoon, Bunda." he said.

I turned my face at once to him.  There was a big question mark on my face.

"Why she called you, Rio?"

I found no smile at his face which (for me) it  indicated something wrong there (thanks God it was not).

"She asked me with whom I study everynight at home? I answered with ayah."


"Why then?"I almost gave no chance for him to have a pause, even for a second.  I was eager to know what happen next.  Why his teacher called him.  What's so important?

"Ibu Reni told me that my grades are much better than before."

Suddenly I felt like I had two wings appear at my both side of my body so that I could fly.  I was extremely happy to hear what Rio just said.   

"She did? Seriously?"

"Yup!"

I couldn't be more happier.  So many dreams that my husband and I have planned for Rio.  It always be our topics before falling asleep at night.  Those dreams filled up my brain.  It took me so high to ensure my heart that we can bring Rio to his success.  We never ever stop support him as long as he has a will to reach the best for his life.  He is our son.  He's gonna be our pride someday.  Insyaallah!

Sampai Jumpa, Angga

Sabtu pagi, 24 Mei 2020, pukul 07.22 ia masih melakukan panggilan video ke ponselku, namun tak terangkat. Kami bertemu dalam panggilan video selanjutnya melalui ponsel ibuku sekitar pukul 09.00 di rumah Jatra, rumah yang melengkapi puzzle masa kecilnya, rumah tempat ia pulang tiga tahun lalu. Ada yang berbeda pada wajahnya di lebaran pertama itu. Lebih tirus dan pasi. Kulihat kilauan buliran keringat di keningnya. Rambutnya basah. Jelas ia sedang tidak begitu sehat. Pun begitu, setiap kata, senyum, dan deraian tawanya tetap menyegarkan. Kami saling memohon maaf. Ia berbicara sambil merangkul maminya.  "Uni, maafkan Angga lahir batin ya, Ni. Insyaallah kita nanti ketemu di Jambi,"ucapnya sembari melambaikan tangan gempalnya.  "Iya. Uni tunggu, ya." "Insyaallah, Ni,"pungkasnya sebelum ia menepi dan membiarkan maminya berbicara. Sapa, maaf, dan tawa mengalir ke satu-persatu pasukan Pakis 74.  "Uni, bisakan kami nginap di ru
