Hello, Smoky City..!


Finally we decided to bring Hamzah swimming this morning.  What about the smokes? The sky? Everything done?

Nope. The sky is still grey and the smokes are still there. Nothing changes. I myself was also too tired to be a grump for almost more than two months. Why have to be so grumpy when it does not make anything better, yet all gets worse.

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.
