I'm him & us
You're Wherever

Tonight has now greeted, Alif is still silent at his study table, he still does not want to talk to Arya, he thinks if the real father who is the cause of the mother back to go, he said, the mother must be angry and sad because the evil aunt, her evil father's friend destroyed their happy atmosphere, Alif sobbed with a look fixed on a photo in his arms

"Alif don't cry anymore dong, I'm sorry, I'm sorry father" said Arya slowly sitting next to her little son, since the arrival of Lia Alif became easier to express himself, said Arya, he will rebuke when upset and will laugh when he feels a happiness, this is clearly much different from his past self he even chose to be silent and become moody

"It's the father's fault, the mother has not wanted to pick up the phone Alif, the mother has already left Alif, the mother will leave Alif again Yah" he said as he brushed off tears and hugged his photo with the mother, he said, he tried to call but not even picked up and did not have any response

"Dad apologized dear, mother must be busy, I'm sure kok mother ngak will nggalin Alif, very dear mother with Alif Alif ngak can cry again, if you know Alif uring urin gini must be mother will be angry" said Arya in a soft tone, he immediately pulled Alif in his arms

"Hm better Arif sleep yes, so tomorrow can school quietly" said Arya slowly while holding Alif to immediately go to bed

"Well, Alif can't sleep, can't sleep well, Alif wants mother" he said with a slow sob, his mother disappeared just like that, not picking up the phone or replying to the message, for whatever sake he was very afraid if he had to return to feel the pain of a loss

"Well, are you going to leave Alif again, Alif a bad boy huh yah?, why would you not want to call Alif, or mommy would not want to see Alif again?, mother has not loved again the same Alif yes well" said with a tone so soft, heard the words of the child Arya even just took a heavy breath with regret, he said, but not for some time he laid his body on the mattress while hugging his little son tightly

"Alif sleep yes" said Arya stroking the head of Alif

"Alif wants mommy Yah, Alif wants mommy" he whined

"Tomorrow father look for mother yes, now Alif rest in order to be fresh to school" said Arya slowly while stroking the top of her child's head, even Alif immediately lost his smile after the incident last night, even he felt anxious and sad when Lia had not taught him since last night

"Really yeah? Dad, don't you lie to Alif?, if I lie again Alif won't want to talk to me again" he said in between sobs

"Yes father promise, now Alif rest yes" he said as he pulled a blanket to cover his son, slowly Alif's eyes closed, it didn't take long the little boy had fallen asleep soundly, Arya sighed softly looking at her son in silence, but it felt like everything was going so fast, even Arya herself felt that something was missing when Lia was not with them, during this time the three always spend time together, doing many things together until finally even cause a sense of comfort between one and the other

"Sorry dad, this is all dad's fault" he said stroking his hair slowly, Arya took a photo that has been embraced by Alif since,

Arya slowly came out of Alif's room to the long chair in the front garden of the house, Arya's hands like moving and by itself called Lia, even she could not look like Lia even for a day,

"Hallo assalamu'alaikum" said Lia slowly, the phone just connected

"Hm, what's wrong with you?" Said Arya quickly, she should not stutter, she was so worried about Lia that even lost contact just like that, it had been two days since that day, she did not expect that it would be like this

"You mean?" He said while looking slowly, a slightly ambiguous question managed to make Auliya confused

"Why didn't you come?" Arya said again, there was a sense of worry and guilt when Lia did not find him last afternoon, they had made an appointment but look even Lia did not come to make him feel more guilty

"I'm sorry, I have a very urgent business" Lia said rising from her seat, forgetting to have an appointment, in addition to the news about Riana, her phone also died and until now she even forgot to report

"Is it more important than Alif?, if you have at least some news, don't make us all worry" Arya said in a tone so desperate

"Do you know?, Alif insisted on waiting until night" he said again, Alif was even so excited to go back to see the mother, but even his spirit became faded when the one in waiting did not even have a sign to orient themselves

"I'm sorry, yesterday I died, then how is Alif now, good is it?" He said again, he clearly knew how Alif, he would definitely think if Lia did not want him anymore

"He fell asleep after a beat"

"Thank God for resting"

"Now tell me what problem makes you forget to pick up the phone from Alif, do you know Alif called you earlier, Alif even sent so many voice messages"

"Father Riana had an accident, and we had to go to Bogor to see the situation, Riana was very anxious, even we did not have time to go back to the boarding house, now Riana's father's situation is better and hp was just on the charger "Said Lia slowly, Riana's father was dying at that time as if he might have time to think about a cell phone

"Are you in Jakarta?"

"Yes, I'm still in bogor, maybe Alif called on the road" Lia said slowly

"When are you back then?, please don't disappear again, I'm worried" Arya said slowly

"this is the state of Riana's father has begun to improve and may return tomorrow or the day after tomorrow" he replied in a slow tone,

"Hmm well, come back safely, ah he is tomorrow you can video call with Alif?, he will not be able to calm down before making sure if you are okay" said Arya slowly, said, He could not impose his will on Lia, because he knew clearly where his position was, Lia's departure like this made him so anxious, but after knowing this he felt much better, he felt much better, at least he knows that Lia is okay

"Well" said Lia quietly, after saying a phone greeting on the break.

Lia took a slow breath staring into the silence of the night sky that looked very dark, the moon was lonely without stars accompanying, the greeting of the night wind was now felt so cold to the bone, slowly Lia closed the window to go to bed, there was already Riana who was busy with her phone

"Who?" Riana said softly,

"Aryans"

"What's wrong?"

"Alif cried all day because I forgot to tell you about us to Bogor" said Lia while laying her body on the mattress

"Hor did you know that you went with a slightly irritated look on your face, surely Alif felt guilty because his father's girlfriend insulted you, and do you know?, after you went Alif so diem, he said, and even very indifferent to his father, the rich child is very dear to you, if I see it anyway lo fit if you become a mother continued Alif" said Riana slowly

"Don't sleep, don't sleep," said Lia pulling the blanket and slowly falling asleep
