Last Letter to Mom
Night story
Farhan, Mang Supri also Sani rest in the rest area. In addition to filling their stomachs, they also offer prayers. They momentarily rested with wary eyes fearing that anyone would follow them. Since the fire that hit the place where the mother of Banyu and the disappearance of Sani, all the villagers became frightened. Almost every heart is terrorized by Banyu's mama's men who are looking for the cause of the fire and who the arsonist is. Because the fire that occurred according to police news, due to the element of intentional. Therefore, his son Mamah Banyu became furious, because now his place of business has been engulfed in fire.
"Mas Farhan let me drive. God willing I am strong." The unsatisfactory mang Supri's words had to alternate with Farhan's master.
"No pa-pa mang, we'll change! Now Mang Supri just go to sleep first! I'm not sleepy yet." Said Farhan who is now sitting on the steering wheel ready to return to Jakarta. There is still about five hours to go to Jakarta. Farhan did not want to make Supri tired on the road because even when he left, more of the Supri mang drove than he did.
"Good den. Wake me up later! I'm sorry Mang Supri went to sleep first!" Mang Supri said pleasantries to his master.
"No pa-pa mang. The important thing is I have one car, not too alone. I stel murotal cassette slowly ya mang! Let adem." Farhan asked for permission from Mang Supri. The quiet night is also a rather gripping road, making the fur of meuduk stand. Moreover, Farhan was afraid that someone was stalking behind. Seeing Mas Hamid alert, it means that the village that used to be occupied by Sani is not safe to be visited by foreigners.
"Oh. yes den. He also likes the horror. Likes his innate tentrem. Especially now night, so let's go to heart." Mang Supri also has the same feeling if in the stel verse of the Quran in between driving. He did not mind Farhan stalling the murottal verse in his car.
"Thank mang. Mang Supri want to move to the back? Let's sleep lying down." Farhan offered Mang Supri to sleep in the back seat so that he could sleep more freely and his rest was not disturbed.
"Aden ain't pa-pa left alone up front?" Mang Supri asked again. She was worried that her boss was lonely and needed friends. It's the state of the night.
"No pa-pa mang. Later we change the driver in the rest area again. Let Mang Supri sleep well." In fact Supri mang drove longer than himself. Farhan felt sorry for the Supri mang who had been sitting down earlier. Surely there is pain also felt mang Supri.
"Alright den. I'm sorry I'm not being as polite as Farhan." Mang Supri who has long been a private driver with the oak family Haji Zenal, of course knows the rules. He should respect his employer even though he is younger than he is.
"No pa-pa mang. Let's go! Don't forget the bedoa!" Said Farhan began to drive forward his car that did not forget before had prayed first.
During the trip, Sani could not sleep. Worried that Farhan was driving alone on a pitch-black night. There's a gripping feeling. They were going to do stuff one night. But because of the worrying circumstances, Farhan decided to return to Jakarta as soon as possible.
"So you're not sleeping?" Farhan who looked at the rearview mirror saw Sani standing guard.
"Yes. I'm not sleepy." Sani answered who was not sleepy and did not intend to sleep.
"Mmm. while cool let's not get bored!" Farhan who had bought a snack on the way told Sani to eat it.
"Yes, um." Sani opened a large bag of crackles that contained various snacks and souvenirs.
Sani opened an interesting package containing snacks that contained ciki.
"Mas Farhan wants to?" Sani offered the snack to Farhan.
"Can. Please just take it! I'm hard to take!" Farhan interrupted Sani.
One hand Farhan received the snack and chewed coolly while driving.
Sani also enjoyed the snack while looking forward.
"If the road pantura night-night gini deserted too huh?" Farhan invited to chat Sani not to be too quiet.
"Yes mas. Busiest night with trucks passing by. Except the season." Answer Sani.
"Have you ever been out of your village before?" Tanya Farhan was curious.
"Yet mas. Ever since I was a kid I've never been taken anywhere." Answer Sani.
"Is your mother really that person?" Farhan began to wonder about Sani.
"Know I am. They were born and raised there like me." Answer Sani.
"You never know who your father is?" Farhan asked Sani.
"Mmm. I once asked my mother. But it never answered. So yeah, I don't know who my father is. In my village like me there are also many Farhan mas. So it's not strange that there's a child, not knowing the father.
"Mmm.. is that so?! Farhan was somewhat confused by the local cultural conditions in Sani village. In addition to legal prostitution, they also damage the nasab. Worried if one day a child if it does not know his nasab will be met with a mate with one nasabnya. It is clearly in Islam that it is haram.
To eradicate human sales in the area is quite difficult. In addition to culture, they like to be legalized from the local government. Because of that activity, they get an allowance that is not small from prostitution brokers.
"Yes, um." Sani answered what it was.
"Do you want to find your father? How will I see you?" Tanya Farhan was curious.
"Yes, I want to. But where should Sani look? There's no clue. Sani wants it to bring a lot of money for mom to let mom be happy. And if you're happy, she'll tell Sani's father. If Sani's situation is like this, where would Sani's mother tell him the whereabouts of Sani's father. If Sani meets Sani's father... Sani was confused too. Is Sani's father married or how. Yes for Sani already know, thank God. Fear if he married his wife would be angry." Sani never had more ambition. He just wanted to know where his father was and what he was like.
"Did your father have any chance of ever coming to Banyu's mother's house?" Ask Farhan.
"Yes. If the word aunt Mei, there is usually someone who sells girls just to be entertainers, there are also those who are sold expensive to just be someone's mistress. If Sani's mom says she's someone's mistress. But no one knows who he is." Answer Sani innocently.
