Afternoon walk


" Everything is dear"


Reply to Natahan while rattling his hair


" Good Dian, man,


grandma's looking everywhere


from earlier it turns out here you cu"


A mother suddenly said.


" Dian cama mama papa Dian neyek"


The boy answered while holding tightly to my hand and Nathan as if he was afraid of being separated from us.


" The most beautiful granddaughter


and smart let's go home, baby,


mom is with her dad


there's some business here


if it's run out


mommy is the same papa for sure


also come home Dian"


The mother said to her grandson


" No au! Nyenye oong's


Diane cama aja"


Shouted the boy while crying loudly.


Seeing that I immediately snuggled her trying to calm her back down.


" My grandson ma'afin son yes


because it's disturbing


you two"


Said the mother.


" No papa ma'am, ma'am,


we both feel


totally disturbed


quite the contrary


we are happy with the presence


mother's granddaughter, we feel like we have a child"


Nathan replied with a smile.


" Dian is so boy


since my mom left, papa,


whenever we meet


young couples like you


he considers


both of his parents are back"


Said the mother.


" It's both parents


Dian went to mom?"


Ask Nathan.


" They died


kelna kecelaka'an


last year's bus boy"


Answer the mother with glassy eyes.


" Astagfirullah!"


I said Nathan and I were almost together.


" Now, mother and husband


who took care of Dian?"


Ask Nathan.


" I'm just the same Dian


because his grandfather died


before Dian was born son"


Answer the mother.


" Mrs ma'af when I've


reminds me of them"


Nathan said again.


" No papa son"


Hearing her story reminds me of the past


I also lost both parents and was cared for by my grandmother as a child.


" Dian we're lucky son"


Whisper my heart.


After several times persuaded ahirnya Dianpun stopped crying.


" Mom let Dian be with us first


we'll drive you home,


or if you're not busy


let's have a chat first


here be awhile


we'll take you home"


Nathan said again.


My mother wants to join us.


Ask Nathan while taking over the boy from my sling.


" Sian gak au es cem


Dian au cama mom"


The boy answered while hugging my neck tightly.


" Duh don't cry anymore, baby,


shame on the same team


they're on Dian's bath, Dian,


see someone selling balloons


Dian wouldn't buy this"


Said Nathan.


Dian's eyes glanced at the balloon and then looked at me.


" Dian want a balloon, baby?"


My toot.


He answered with a nod.


" You know, we bought a balloon!"


I went to Nathan


" Oh ma"


Answer Nathan.


We walked up to the balloon seller and bought some for Dian


The boy seemed to accept it


Maybe because we were too cool to play with Dian to not realize that the twilight sky began to show its reddish light indicating the night will soon arrive


Mas Nathan finally took us home to Dian's grandmother in the middle of the trip was heard adzan magrib reverberating


Not long ago we arrived in front of a wooden house painted blue


" Thank God we have arrived"


Said grandma Dian.


After parking the car on the side of the road we all four immediately went out to the house


After Dian's grandmother opened the lock


" Kid yok go in first to the house"


Bring her.


We went down and took the magrib prayer there


After the end of the prayer mas Nathan permission to go out for a while with Dian.


While they were away grandma told about their lives until the accident occurred,


We exchanged our respective phone numbers.


Not long ago Nathan and Dian returned with a bag of crackles containing several boxes of rice


We had dinner with Grandma and Dian


After praying isya and put Dian to bed we say goodbye to grandma to return home


" Don't be deterred to stop by


here"


Said grandma Dian.


" Grandfather, in shaa Allah


if there is time we will


nengokin grandma often


same Dian"


Said Nathan while holding me step towards the car


" Ashloraikum"


Pamit mas Nathan .


" Alaikumsalam!


Be careful on the road, son


I'll get to tell mom"


Said


" Yes ma'am"


My answer.


The car drove on the highway until it did not feel we had started to enter the residential area where we live


From a distance we saw the lights in our house were bright.


" Who are you


, who lit it?


Are the neighbors or


which they gossip about


was it that morning, really?


Ah never mind


what matters is that he doesn't


bothering us"


Whisperers of my heart


The end of our car was until the gate was wide open so we went straight into the yard


With peace of mind, Nathan invited me into the house which turned out to be also unlocked


When the door opened to my surprise I saw the order of the house that had changed in the blink of an eye


" Well, dear, sweet-hearted grandpa?"


Said Nathan.


" Who made it all?"


My toot.
