My best friend, Maduku
Rise back

Time passed without feeling. The days are always accompanied by different life statistics.

One year and three months Alsya was in Cirebon. His new life is always pleasant, far from the hustle and bustle of frustration he had felt while in Jakarta. Alsya's heart had returned to calm and peace after this year in seclusion.

Alsya had also been informed of Hafidhz's death several months ago. At that time, of course, he was immediately shocked and cried because he lost the figure of one of his little angels. But it only lasted a few days, because Alsya who now is not the Alsya that used to be. Alsya now, her heart has been booked so that when there is a test that comes she will be calmer to face it and not to drag on in grief.

Now Alsya is very sure of one thing in life, if a better scenario has been prepared and the test is one of the paths to that happy day.

And today is the end of his journey. Alsya will return to her hometown and live with her family again.

Nisa and Affan came in from the morning to pick her up. This time they both force not to obey the will of Alsya who wants to go home alone without inconveniencing the family.

Little Fazal has also grown up well. He can run smoothly and sometimes even run around in the house. Fazal's growth can be said to be very fast because at the age of eight months, Fazal is already able to walk and at eleven months old he has started to chatter but he will also be a cool and cool child towards new people.

"Fazal, come here first !." Said Alsya asked his son who was playing with rabbits to come closer.

When she was exactly one year old, Alsya did hold a thanksgiving for the age of her child. And the neighbors participated in even giving various gifts to Fazal, including a pair of gray rabbits. Of course Fazal really liked his pet and sometimes played until he forgot the time.

Fazal complied and immediately approached his mother but did not forget his rabbit to be included. Fazal mercilessly carried one of his rabbit like he was holding a doll, and one that was carried but the other rabbit immediately followed behind.

Alsya could only shake her head at Fazal's funny behavior. Sister Nisa and Affan also smiled to see the behavior of her nephew who was too funny.

"Fazal, the other rabbit didn't come ?." Tanya Mbak Nisa while walking to take a rabbit tailing behind the owner.

Fazal glanced at him at a glance and then resumed his steps towards the mother. Well, since he rarely met, so Fazal behaved like that.

Nisa can only be silent to see her nephew who still has not received his presence.

"Fazal is like that, Ma'am." Said Alsya as if understanding the shock of her Brother.

"Huhh yes Al." Nisa's mother snorted resignedly and then stepped back to her seat while still holding Fazal's rabbit.

Fazal arrived in front of his mother. "Nnnl..." Fazal handed his rabbit into Alsya's lap. Then his face was brought close to Alsha's ears.

"Ummi, Fazal's rabbit was taken..." Adu Fazal with a soft voice.

Alsya smiled looking at her son's face. "Don't love, the rabbit wasn't taken, I was just a minute's minjem." Alsya softly.

Fazal shook his head with a pouting mouth. "But, ummi..." Fazal whined.

Mbak Nisa understood it and immediately released the rabbit which turned out to be his rabbit immediately approached the owner.

"Tuh, the rabbit." Alsya pointed at the rabbit who was running towards him.

Fazal's smile instantly flashed as he saw his rabbit approaching.

"Already, don't carry the rabbit. Come on now Fazal put on a sweater first." Alsya began to put it on the body of the son.

"Ummi, where are we going ?."

"We're going home, baby."

"Home ?."

"Yes." Yeah."

"But this is Fazal's house, ummi ?.".

Alsya cupped Fazal's face. "We're going home to Grandpa's with Grandma dear."

"O yeah ?!." Fazal looked very happy.

Alsya nodded.

"Yeehh. Fazal wants to see Grandpa with grandma...!,." Fazal prancing pleasure.

Since understanding and knowing everything, Fazal has often asked to meet with his grandparents and Alsya never obeyed him but now he will bring them together.

There is nothing happier for a woman than to see her child happy.

"Come on Al, get the kesorean." Said Nisa who was approaching.

"Yes, mom. Come on baby ?!." Alsya took her little son's hand to get out of the house.

Because Alsya had said goodbye to the neighbors so today Alsya does not need to come to them again. But when outside the house, Mira and her son were waiting for them.

Fazal immediately approached his son Mira, seeming to be doing a moment of separation.

"It's all done, Al ?." Ask Mira with teary eyes.

Alsya smiled." Yes, mbak."

"I'm going to miss you guys so much..." Mira immediately hit Alsya's body and hugged her tightly. "Don't forget about us here... And play here sometimes." Mira began to cry.

"God willing, ma'am. Alsya try to play at Mira's house, later."

"I used to, yes. Thank you for Mira's kindness for me and Fazal. May the good of Mira be reciprocated by Allah."

Mira nodded. "Aamiinu. May you also soon get a soul mate back, which is better than ever." Mbak Mira said sincerely.

All of Alsya's friends here already know about Alsya's life journey before Alsya moved to Cirebon, although not to detail.

"Aami... Come on Ma'am, assalamualaikum..."

"Goddessalam..."

"Come on Fazal ?!."

"Yes. Drug sister...!." Fazal waved his hand at his son Mira who immediately replied to him.

Fazal boarded the car in a row with two rabbits that always tailed behind him then Alsya.

The luggage has been tidied up in the trunk of the car by Affan.

The car began to slide waiting for the yard of the house that had always been treaded by the feet of Alsya. An environment that has restored calm in Alsya's heart.

The journey was long and took a long time. Every now and then the car stops at the rest area because to do prayers all rest. Sometimes Affan and Nisa take turns to drive.

Late at night, finally the journey has arrived at the destination. Abah's house looked quiet even the gatekeeper was asleep but immediately woke up when he heard the roar of the car engine approaching.

Affan's car is parked in Abah's yard. Alsya who was asleep also started to wake up when the car had stopped. Alsya glanced at Fazal who was still sound asleep on the lap as well as the two rabbits who also fell asleep in the seat beside Alsya's seat.

"Al." Ma'am Nisa opened the side door of Alsya.

"Sir, Fazal's still good."

"Yes, let's get out."

Carefully, though, while carrying Fazal Alsya out of the car and stepping into the house with mbak Nisa while Affan and two gatekeepers plus the house employee who is a man began to take out Alsya's belongings he also brought two rabbits belonging to Fazal into the house.

The house is very quiet inside, maybe Abah and Umma did not hear the arrival of Alsya and still slept soundly. Alsya and Nisa split up, entering her own room. Alsya laid Fazal's body on his bed that looked very neat, maybe it had been prepared before.

Alsya deftly changed Fazal's clothes with her nightgown and also cleaned the hands, feet and face of the son with a wet tissue. Fazal squirmed a little but calmed back down and fell asleep again.

After finishing taking care of the baby, Alsya also immediately went into the bathroom and cleaned herself and went to sleep next to Fazal.

Early in the morning greeting, Alsya woke up from her sleep, entered the bathroom and performed the obligation of morning prayer and went out to the kitchen.

In the kitchen there is already a household assistant who is cooking. Alsya did not recognize the clerk because the cook in his brother's house was not that one.

"Welcome, Mr. Al.." said the woman was friendly.

Alsya smiling. " Mr. Morning..." Alsya replied no less friendly. "What's cooking anymore ?." Tanya Alsya approached the stove.

"I'm cooking mujair balado, mbak."

"Wahh my favorite food ?!." Alsya said enthusiastically.

His mother smiled happily. "Mom told him to, Ma'am." His mom told him.

Alsya manggut-mangut understands. "Umma is very sensitive. Oh yeah, umma where, mbak ?."

"So before dawn it was here I just kept going again."

"Ouh, yeah, I'm looking for umma first, Mommy."

"Yes, it's Al."

Alsya came out of the kitchen area and looked for umma as well as Abah. When he arrived he had not had time to meet his parents because it was too late at night.

After looking around it turns out umma is on the side terrace watering the flower plants. Alsya stepped back to give a surprise.

"Al, are you awake ?." Tanya umma without looking.

Alsya stopped her steps. The plan failed completely, though,. Umma looks chuckled small.

"apartments, ihh... Not good to know ?!." Decak Alsya sulked but she also directly hugged her mother's body tightly from behind

Umma stroked her daughter's cheek gently. "How are you, son?, ." Ask gently lovingly.

"Hmm Alsya now feels better, Umma."

Umma turned her body and re-hugged Alsya's body. "Alhamdulillah, umma glad to hear it. May your heart be good in the future, son."

"Aami... "Alsya looked at her Ummanya face. "Where is Umma ?."

"Change again came out the same Affan, umma also do not know where they are."
