Lailatulqadar (Song of Missing For Fathers)
Chapter 7


Handoko had already enrolled Qadar into one of the schools. And today is the first day Qadar goes to school. Handoko bought a new uniform for Qadar, because the old uniform of the boy seems to be unworthy of wear.


The color of the white shirt already looks dull and yellow, Handoko could not bear if Qadar had to wear such a shabby outfit. Likewise with Qadar shoes that have been hollow and torn. Handoko also bought new shoes and other school supplies for Qadar.


Seeing that Mira looked sullen because the payday date was still a few days away but Handoko could shop all the school supplies for Qadar.


" Where can you buy this stuff from?" mira asked in annoyance.


" I borrow a coworker first, I'll change pay." Handoko answered honestly, he thought Mira would not mind what she did.


But it turns out he was wrong, Mira will actually question anything related to Laila and Qadar especially about money.


"What's? From salary money? If that's how I'm reduced. No! Anyway I don't want to know, your debt business yes you pay don't cut my monthly rations!" cerocos Mira's.


"How else, Mir? I need that money right away because Qadar has to go to school immediately, anyway later from that salary as well. Still lucky someone wants to give a loan, if instead of from the salary want from where else?" handoko asked for his wife's understanding.


"Yes up to you. I don't want my monthly money to be cut as they need it. Our daily eating rations also increase, uh must be cut as well as the monthly money. So if you want to take care of a child, think first! Not able to meet their needs? The needs of the family alone is still me who closed the lack, pretentious to help sodara!" mura.


"Mir, the humans have been given each rezeky, do not fear lack just because there is Laila and Qadar hitchhiking here. Who knows because of their rezeky we increase, do not count let alone those are the children of Marni my brother. They are orphans maybe even orphans that we have to embrace" Handoko reminded.


"Well, if you want a lecture there! You feel good, know his work can money continue to love me either enough or not enough money that you love, you do not want to know right? Finally I'm dizzy to make money that is only the rest of the pay here and there, the end I also bother having to look for additional by selling. If you had more money I wouldn't have said much!" Mira melengos went to prepare breakfast.


Handoko just stroked the chest against his wife. As the head of the Handoko family was indeed quite weak, the one in control of only Mira here was not her.


Mira roughly prepared plates and glasses for breakfast. His face was bent in such a way. Seeing Mira's expression, Laila felt even more unwell especially Laila had heard the checks between Mira and her uncle Handoko in the room.


Because of Laila and Qadar, they often fight. That was what Laila had in mind at the moment.


Dita popped into the dining room while continuing to carry her phone without paying attention to the floor that Laila mop was on. He walked lightly in his shoes. Laila let out a long sigh looking at Dita who did not appreciate her work at all. The clean floor is now back dirty due to Dita's shoes. Forced Laila to repeat cleaning the floor again with a mop wipe.


Dita, Handoko, Aldo, Mira and Qadar are now sitting at the dinner table for breakfast.


This time Mira allowed Qadar to have breakfast together just because the boy was going to school. Laila is busy with cleaning.


"Dit, you go with Qadar! You guys are a school, let the cost is also economical you will use a motorbike" said Handoko.


"Ah, don't want to! I want to go with him, now he is waiting in front of his house. Don't want to, don't want to! " sumble Dita while busy chewing.


"Let him take the angkot, I'll give you the fare! " said Mira behaved better than Qadar had to ride the same Dita mending he spent a little money on the child's fare.


" But in the future the cost of Qadar is your business, once this is just until you pay," said Mira.


Laila heard their conversation in the kitchen, she who was busy cleaning in the tv room was daydreaming.


"But pity that Qadar took the angkot, he did not know where the school is," said Handoko.


" That's it with you!" Mira moved her chin.


"The same office for children's schools is not in the same direction if I will not ask Dita together with Qadar. I will be late to the office" said Handoko.


"Let me go between Qadar schools, all I want to know the area here. Looking forward to Aunt Mira can tell me if I already know the area here, if for example want to buy anything." Laila approached them.


" I have a little money saved, not much but there is for a week the cost of Qadar to school" said Laila.


"Thank God so I don't have to bother spending money on you guys" Mira said.


"I'm leaving first! " Handoko passed from there, she had to rush off to work.


Likewise with Dita, he also went to school on a matic motorcycle.


While Laila and Qadar started walking to the front of the house towards the highway where they would wait for angkot to be able to leave for his school Qadar.


From home to school only one time riding the green angkot. It is not difficult to find schools, especially in the same angkot many passengers who are one destination with Laila and Qadar. The average school child who rides the angkot.


Angkot was pulled over in front of the gate of a school. Laila and Qadar immediately went down. Laila stared at the size of the school building in this place. It was good he thought, unlike his school in the village whose building almost collapsed. Either untouched by government assistance or there are other people who are the reason for the bad building education in the village.


"Sorry deck, you can't come in!" said Satpam held back Laila's steps who wanted to take Qadar inside.


"But my sister is just here, worried she's straying because she doesn't know where her class is. May I take you a minute later I come back here again" Laila pinta.


Not far from the place where Laila and Qadar were standing looked as if someone was watching them. His name was Restu, a 17-year-old boy who also attended school there.


" What is this, sir? " ask Restu.


" This is said to be between his sister who just entered this school." The security guard pointed at Laila.


Restu turned to the plainly dressed girl.


"New disciples?" ask Restu.


"Yes, my sister's a new student here. I'd like to take him to his class but the same security guard,,"


" Let me take it. What class?"


"Class 2B."


" Here the rules are quite strict can not just anyone in and out except students in this school. You're not in school?" ask Restu to Laila.


Laila shook her head slowly.


"Yes, do you trust me? I'm between your sister and her class" said Restu.


Laila nodded as she said, "thank you."


"Together." Restu also invited Qadar into the gate after Qadar greeted his brother and the little boy waved at Laila.


" Sister wait here huh, who pinter learned it! " excited Laila.
