Honey For Amira
The presence of Dion


Farhan and Zia were already in the dining room. Ms. Aminah walked over to the dining room.


"Where is Mas Galih Ma?" farhan asked Bu Aminah.


"The magic is still inside. Not knowing whether he wanted to eat or not" replied Aminah. After that he sat mingling with Zia and Farhan in the dining room.


"Mas Galih doesn't want to come to dinner with us, Mom?" ask Zia.


"don't know. Maybe he's still full. Let it go. We eat first" said Aminah.


"Perhaps because I'm here, Mas Galih does not want to eat with us" said Zia looked sad.


Zia knows that Galih doesn't like her. Because Galih's attitude has always been cynical with Zia.


"Zia, Galih may be tired again. He just got home from work. He does not hate you, soon he will be here too" said Aminah Bu.


Ms. Aminah does not want Zia to have many thoughts that will affect the fetus in the womb.


"Oh yeah, we eat first. No need to wait for Mas Galih" said Farhan.


"Yes, it's."


Zia, Bu Aminah, and Farhan then immediately took their own food. After that they eat without a calamity.


"Zia, eat a lot. Don't think too much. Pregnant people cannot be stressed. Because stress can affect your content," said Bu Aminah on the sidelines of his chewing.


"Listen to Zi, what mom said. You have to eat a lot. Don't think of anything else now."


Zia simply nodded on the sidelines of his cud.


After Zia and Farhan finished their meal, they left for the room.


"Mom, I go to the room first yes," said Zia.


Zia got up from her seat. After that he walked towards his room.


"I went to my room, too, Mom" said Farhan. He also left the dining room, following his wife to the room.


Ms. Aminah is now alone. The food was not finished yet, and he still continued eating it.


They even went to the room. Why don't they wait for me here. The feeling, Amira was not like this. He will definitely help me, to clean up the dining table, said Ms. Aminah.


After Farhan and Zia entered the room, Galih came out of the room and approached his mother. He sat down near his mother.


"Mom, where are Farhan and Zia. How are you alone?" ask Galih while throwing his body on the dining table chair.


"They've entered the room" Bu Aminah's captor was brief.


"This hour has entered the room? after being full, they leave the mother that way, do not want to help mother clean up the dining table?"


"Already Galih. Its nothing. Let me do the dinner table. If you want to eat, eat. Mumpung mama's not done yet."


"Yes, Mom."


Galih then took the plate that was in front of him. After that he took the rice and side dishes. Galih then eats to accompany his mother to eat.


Galih thought, after Zia and Farhan stayed at her mother's house, it would make her mother's work grow.


Because after Farhan and Zia were in the house of Bu Aminah, Bu Aminah had to cook a lot, and wash dishes a lot. It's outrageous, if Zia doesn't want to help her mother-in-law do the dishes.

This afternoon Amira and Laila were still chatting on the front porch of their house. Laila and Amira's gaze was fixed on a man wearing a helmet and riding a motorcycle to the front of their house.


Arriving at the motorbike in the front yard of Amira's house, the man stopped the speed of his motorbike.


"Mi, who is Mi?" ask Laila.


"Nor does she know who that man is. He's definitely not your pade or Abi."


The man took off his helmet and looked directly at Amira. How surprised Amira was when she saw the man. And so is Laila. He was also shocked when he saw the man. They both seem to know the man well.


"That's right, Aunt Novi's subscription meatball boss. How come he's here, what's the matter?" laila.


"Boss meatballs?" Amira scrunched her brows in confusion.


"Yes Mi. That's you know, the person who the other day ever gave meatballs to Aunt Novi. He said to Umi. Says Aunt Novi, that man is Umi's friend? is that really Mi?"


"Yes. Umi knows. He's Mas Dion. But he's not Umi's friend nor Laila's time. Umi has no boyfriend. Umi's boyfriend is just your Abi."


"Yes. Abi and Pade too, right?" chirps Laila.


Amira sighed deeply and only glanced at Laila at a glance.


The man named Dion smiled as he walked over to Amira and Laila.


"Assalamualaikum" said Dion after arriving in front of Amira and Laila.


"Wa'alakiumsalam" replied Laila and Amira together.


"Amira, how are you? I'm sorry, I just got to come here to see you" Dion said.


Laila got up from her seat.


"Om, sit Om here. Or sit inside?" asked Laila who immediately let Dion sit down. Amira was silent.


I don't know what Amira is feeling right now, when she meets a man from her past who she once rejected her love and proposal.


Yes, Dion was a man in Amira's past. In the past, Dion had wanted to be betrothed to Amira by Amira's parents.


But Amira refused the match, because she wanted to have a man who was both a graduate of the pesantren. While Dion according to Amira, very minimal religious knowledge.


Amira was afraid that Dion would not be a good priest for her. Hence, at that time Amira preferred Ustadz Farhan who was different from his village, and rejected Dion who was one village with him.


Amira thought, having a husband ustaz that will bring happiness and blessings in his life. But in reality, unlike that, having a husband like Farhan, brought his own suffering to Amira.


After Laila let Dion sit down, Dion sat down. While Laila went inside the house and gave Dion and Uminya a chance to chat.


"Mas Dion" said Amira, looking nervous as she sat near Dion.


Dion's intentions were good. He wants to see Amira. There was no other intention than that.


"Amira, I've heard all your conditions from Novi. Why the hell, can you be like this Amira?" tanya Dion looked at Amira fixedly.


He occasionally stared at Amira's feet. I am concerned about Amira's current condition. Especially now that Dion knows that Amira is being polygamous by her husband.


"Two months ago, I had an accident. I lost my six-month-old son. And I'm also now paralyzed, because of a broken bone" Amira explained.


"O Allah, I am so sorry, Amira, to see your present condition. And Novi said, your husband said he was married again. Really it?" ask Dion.


Amira quiet.


What Novi told this man. No matter what, he told me that now I am disabled, but don't tell me about household problems I dong, really shy. Very nice Novi. Watch out for you Nov, furious Amira in heart.


Amira has been silent since. He is still late in his own mind.


"Novi, what's the story with you?" tanya Amira looked at Dion fixedly.


"He didn't tell me anything. He only told me you were in an accident. He said your husband is marrying again. I'm sorry about your current condition, Amira."


Amira breathed deeply.


"Yes Mas. All of Novi's words were true. But I don't want you to feel sorry for me just because of that."


"Amira, I'm here, just want to see your condition. What are your legs now?" ask Dion


"I've been sniffing. Just a standing practice."


"Oh, thank goodness then."


"Mas, he said you were abroad. How did you suddenly become the boss of meatballs? how's the story."


Dion smiling.


"I don't actually work away from my family. All this time I was working on an American cruise. But I think I can buy everything. Home, cars, rice fields, land, so what am I working for. Now I'm focusing on finding a wife" said Dion
