1 METER OF FOOT
THE ARRIVAL OF DYAH - MALIK

Mama Mulan saw clearly the look on Shanum's face who was sad because of Imran's arrival. In fact, right now Shanum is just silent with a blank look forward.

Not only did Mulan's mother pay attention to Shanum, but Emyr as well.

"Emm! Shanum!"

Shanum was even to the point of being unaware when summoned by Mulan's mama. Emyr, who was sitting next to him, rubbed Shanum's back to wake him up.

"Eh! Yes Brother Emyr! What's up?"

"Call to mama."

Shanum immediately turned his gaze towards Mama Mulan. "Did Mama call Shanum?"

Mama Mulan nodded. "Are we going to the graves of your parents?"

"Mom seriously want to visit mom and dad's grave?"

Mama Mulan nodded again. "Mom seriously, son."

"All right! In front it will be straight a little then turn right, brother."

Emyr just nodded. He immediately followed the intrusion directed by Shanum. And from far away his eyes had seen a funeral archway.

"Is that Shanum's grave?"

Shanum just nodded. After the car has been parked by Emyr. Shanum and the others immediately got down from the car and walked into the tomb.

Mama Mulan, Emyr and also papa Hisham, followed where Shanum's footsteps stepped.

Before long, their footsteps stopped right beside a tomb.

"It's Ma! Mother's Tomb. And next to him is Father's tomb."

Shanum then squatted in the middle of the tomb to his two parents. "Dad! Mama! Please excuse Shanum who hasn't had time to clean your graves." Unknowingly Shanum's tears were dripping.

"Next Brother will have Nasir or the others clean their graves" Emyr said.

"Is there no caretaker of Shanum's tomb here?"

"There's Pa! It's just that Shanum can't afford it. So then! Shanum try to come here every week to clean it up" Shanum replied.

"However, due to Shanum's recent move out of town, there has been a lot of grass filling his grave."

Hearing the story of Shanum, Hisham's father became pity and pity.

"Come on! We better pray soon."

Everyone nodded to Emyr. Emyr then led the way of prayer. They read jasin and tahlil as they could with the intention of wishing to pray for Yasmin's mother and Umar's father.

After praying, Mulan's mother is seen rubbing Yasmin's mother's headstone.

"Yasmine! I'm sorry!"

"A long time ago we did not meet. But upon meeting, only your tombstone can I see," Mama Mulan's tears drenched her cheeks.

"Ma! Be calm. Don't make Shanum any sadder."

Mama Mulan then turned her gaze towards Shanum. "I'm sorry Mama, son! Mama didn't mean to make you sad."

Shanum smiled as he clasped Mama Mulan's hand. "Shanum is okay!"

"Mama promise. Mama will be a good mama to you as Yasmin used to treat you."

Shanum smiled and was full. "Thank you Ma! Thanks!"

"Shanum is like having a full family now" Shanum said.

Papa Hisham, mama Mulan and also Emyr smiled hearing Shanum say that.

After that, the four of them left the tomb. Papa Hisham deliberately walked side by side with Emyr, because there was something he wanted to talk about.

Papa Hisham spoke a little whisper, so that Shanum could not hear him. "Emyr! You pay the caretaker to always clean the tomb of your two in-laws. If they can be improved upon their tombs."

Emyr nodded in agreement with the words of the father. After reaching the front of the car, they all immediately went into it.

On the way home. Shanum did not speak much at all. He chose silence by leaning his head against a chair. Even they forgot to eat lunch, because the incident Imran had come to surprise them.

Emyr just nodded. And when he saw a restaurant, Emyr turned the steering wheel.

Papa Hisham and mama Mulan have gone down first. So Shanum stayed in the car with Emyr.

Emyr rubbed Shanum's shoulder gently. "Shanon! Let's eat first."

Shanum shook his head. "Shanum isn't hungry Brother! Can Shanum be in the car?"

"If you don't want to go down. My brother won't come down either. If you don't want to eat. Brother won't eat either."

Shanum turned his gaze towards Emyr. "Why did my sister say that. What if my brother gets sick? Brother has responsibility for all of your employees."

"Sister isn't just responsible for them. But with you too Shanum."

"Make what Brother succeeds in pleasing them, but Sister's own wife does not feel happy."

"But Brother?"

"But what is Shanum?" ask Emyr.

"Do you still doubt Brother's love?"

"Do you still not believe that Brother is not like Imran?"

"Open your eyes Shanum. Let's see clearly, if Big Brother isn't like him."

After saying that, Emyr directly got out of the car and left Shanum alone.

Shanum felt slapped hearing Emyr say that to him. Without any more coercion, Shanum got out of the car and walked after Emyr who had entered the restaurant.

After filling their empty stomachs, they continued their journey home. Arriving at home, Shanum asked permission to enter the room immediately.

When dinner time came, Mulan's mother, Emyr, and Hisham's father were very attentive to Shanum. Because right now he eats only a little. He was told to say he was full. After dinner, Shanum also chose to go to bed. This made Emyr worried about Shanum.

In the morning, when the time has shown at nine in the morning. Shanum's face, which initially looked sad, now looked sad and happy.

How unhappy he is, if at this time he sees Dyah, Malik and also baby Fatiyah is coming to visit Emyr's house.

"Dyeah!"

Shanum greeted and hugged Dyah tightly. Mama Mulan who saw the arrival of the three of them also greeted him kindly.

"Well! It's so funny! What's name?" mama Mulan immediately greeted baby Fatiyah.

"Fatiyah, Grandma!" answer Dyah.

"Let's sit down!" mama Mulan was very friendly to Dyah and Malik.

Because it has been a long time to want to have a grandchild, Mama Mulan immediately asked joking baby Fatiyah.

"Dyeah! Malik! You guys can get here?"

Dyah and Malik smiled at Shanum. "Overnight, Emyr called Malik, Ma'am. Mas Emyr told Malik to take Dyah to his house."

"Yes Ma'am! Mas Emyr was very worried to see Mbak continued to daydream and moody," continued Dyah.

"So you guys, do you know ...?"

Dyah and Malik nodded. "We know everything. Because after Imran came to Mbak's house, he immediately met Dyah. And Mas Emyr has also explained everything on the phone" Malik replied.

"Already Ma'am. Don't keep thinking."

Shanum nodded. "Yes! I don't think about it anymore."

"By the way! Where are the Emyr's going, Ma'am?" ask Malik.

"So being out for a while papa. He said he'd check out the building for our wedding."

"Cie-cie!"

Dyah immediately teased Shanum. Shanum was immediately embarrassed by Dyah's actions. Mama Mulan and Malik also laughed seeing Shanum shyly so.
