"Be careful sir, mother, how many days is the pilgrimage?" ask Vani. His father and mother will make pilgrimage trips to the tombs of the guardians, it is only natural that his father Vani was very active in the activities of religious organizations.
"One week nduk, you take good care of your grandchildren. Jagain also prospective twin grandchildren, pray we are safe until we go home later yes" said Vani's mother while stroking Vani's stomach is very distended, even though the age of the womb is still six months.
"Dong bu, surely Vani prayed for mom and dad. Vani must also take care of the children, special mothers if you pray later. Vani nitip brem yes bu if you stop by Madiun" said Vani who suddenly wanted to feel the taste of typical Madiun food made from the base material of the tape.
"Not nothing has cravings yet, you guys want to eat brem again huh?" ask Vani's mother on Vani's stomach, as if her belly can hear her grandmother's words.
Suddenly Vani's stomach moves, "Uwah, they move, ma'am. It seems like they really want to eat brem, hehehe" Vani said with a laugh of happiness.
"Yes, later on bring a brem yes to you" said Vani's mother who still stroked the surface of the distended abdomen containing the twins.
Vani kissed the back of his mother's hand with reverence, Lali turned to kiss the back of his father's hand.
"Bapak is also careful, take care of yourself, take care of the mother as well" said Vani accompanied the departure of both parents.
"Yes, nduk. Later we video call yes" said Mr. Vani who a few months ago got a new mobile gift from Yudha.
"Yes sir, Varo and Vee would also want to go if the father of the same mother later make a video call" said Vani imagining his frown Vee who was not invited by his grandparents to go for a walk.
"Well, the bus is waiting in front of the alley like that. We go first, nduk. Assalamualaikum" said Ms. Vani.
The two parents who still look romantic in their old age set off on a bus for the grave pilgrimage, as is often done by residents around the Vani residence who are still thick religious atmosphere.
Vani re-enters his home after making sure his parents are invisible from his sight.
The clock is still showing at five in the morning, it is too early to wake her children up for school.
Be him doing homework so that later in the day he will fall down and relax.

"Living folded up his clothes, help mom want to not?" vani asked his first child, he was carrying a pile of dry clothes that had just been taken from the clothesline to be placed in front of the television.
"May bun" said Varo, who sat on the carpet in front of the TV.
"Take a look at the TV, Bun" said Varo, who has turned on the TV, whether you want to see what show, just want to eliminate the quiet atmosphere in the house.
"A bus carrying a group of pilgrims from the city of Cold is rumored to have suffered a fatal accident on the toll road to Surabaya" said a breaking news broadcaster who happened to be seen by Vani.
Vani was very surprised, 'Cold City right here, maybe not really if the bus that brought dad?" ask Vani in my heart.
His mind began to be filled with bad things. But he kept trying to calm down and continued to sting at the news he was seeing.
"The bus carrying more than Forty people had hit the roadblock. It is reported that the accident occurred due to a sleepy driver. Because until this news was revealed, the driver was found dead horribly wedged by the front body of the bus".
"The accident happened this afternoon, at 16:30 WIB. The Mentari Jaya bus, which transports pilgrims, has undergone a series of checks before leaving, and the travel agency can ensure that the bus is in top condition"
"So, we can be sure if the accident occurred because the driver was sleepy. But for more details, we can wait for the official announcement from the police who are still investigating the case"
"While for the victims, you can see the latest update on the official police website. Or you can go directly to the Surabaya City public hospital. Thank you" the news announcer ended the information.
As soon as Vani felt limp, it was the bus that her parents were riding yesterday while following the pilgrimage.
"Mother why cry?" ask Varo confused.
"May you please take my mother's phone in the room, son?" vani asked with a sob, she started to get scared.
"Yes, bun" said Varo.
Just a moment of waiting, Varo has come up with Vani's hape.
"This, bun" said Varo.
"Thank you, son" Vani said after getting his phone.
As soon as she contacted Jovan, she wanted her husband to know this news and find information.
But a few times making calls, his phone was not picked up either.
In a confused state, even Vani thought of Yudha. That man could help her.
Vani dialed a call for Yudha, and was immediately accepted.
"What's up, Van?"
yudha asked, the man was worried because he was stinging from Vani's call.
ask Vani.
"Sure, what's up?"
ask Yudha.
"I just had to see the news on TV, there was an accident from a bus headed for Surabaya. From the name, it looks like it was the bus my parents were riding"
Vani paused her speech for having to endure sobs.
"I've been trying to contact Jovan to find information, but the phone can't be reached.. Hicks. hyx..."
Vani was crying in between her words.
"Calm down, you need to calm down. Remember, you are pregnant. Do not let anything happen with your pregnancy. Let me find the information for you. You calm down, I'm going to our house right now"
said Yudha who was more worried about Vani's pregnancy, who is thought to be her son.
"Yes, mas. Thanks yeah"
Vani ended his call still crying. He was afraid that something would happen to his parents.
"Mother why the hell?" asked Varo tang looking at the sagging bunda.
Vani just shook his head, not knowing how to say that to Varo. It was fortunate that Vee was sleeping, so it was still a little safe since the boy was very fond of asking.
Thirty minutes passed, Yudha actually came to accompany Vani at her home. She did not want anything to happen until Vani's pregnancy, which succeeded in making her thinner because it was thought Yudha had sympathetic pregnancy syndrome.
"Mas Yudha, how is it? You got any word?" asked Vani who immediately ambushed Yudha without allowing her to enter first.
"Akbar is still figuring it out. You calm down yes, now we pray that it is not the bus carrying your parents' entourage" Yudha said, calming Vani down.
Vani was still crying, she stood up while guiding Varo's hand standing beside her.
"Let's go in first" said Yudha who was sorry to see Vani continue to stand.
Yudha walked while embracing the shoulder of Vani who continued to go up and down because of her stuffing.
"Mas, what if my parents are victims too?" vani asked with her tears.
"Have, you don't think no. Calm down, pray as much as possible" said Yudha who continued to monitor her mobile phone which had not been notified by Akbar.
Almost thirty minutes passed, finally Akbar gave the news as well.
By email, he sent the names of the victims of the bus accident that occurred a few hours ago.
Vani cries hysterically when she finds both her parents are victims of an accident.
While Jovan's cell phone could not be reached because he was busy getting service from his second wife.
Gina did deliberately do that so that Vani was saddened because there was no one closest to her to go through such sad moments in her life.
He does not know if there are others who still want to comfort Vani, prepare his shoulders for where Vani leaned when slumped like this.
★★★★★
Jovan just checked his phone the next day, when Vani has successfully repatriated the bodies of his parents quickly with the help of Yudha.
How shocked the man was to find so many missed calls from Vani, and what surprised him most was the news that his two in-laws were victims of an accident.
Again, he felt like a useless man because again Yudha was by his wife's side and helped him to this extent.
"Why don't you tell me there's a phone, Gin?" jovan asked furiously because since yesterday his wife took over his phone under the pretext of not wanting to be disturbed.
"Where do I know, baby. It's in the nightstand" Gina said evasively.
As soon as Jovan leaves, he will return home after getting permission from his superiors later.
He was very confused this time, what would he make an excuse for Vani because since yesterday he had not ignored the message from him
