ZULFA FORTITUDE
Hasan and Herman

Hasan who witnessed it was made envious. Suppose he is in that position. Hualaah ... halu ....

This time he was only able to look on with a smile and continue eating, while holding back a laugh. Almost choked on dech.

"Uhuk ... uhuk .. uhuk ..." Hasan took the glass immediately. To stop a cough that comes on suddenly.

Gini who makes Zulfa ashamed. He tried to hide by eating while lowering his face.

"Why be ashamed, Zulfa. I like your attitude to children. Warm ...." sincere praise but make Zulfa more embarrassed. Fortunately, he soon mastered himself.

"thank you. Now may I eat quietly."

"Please." while holding back laughter.

They enjoyed eating each other in silence. Only once did Tia speak, indulging in Zulfa. Zulfa ignored him sometimes, sometimes allowing him to handle himself.

Now everyone has spent what they have. Stomach full, drowsiness came (especially for Irwan, understand he was still tired) for a while, not yet praying Isya.

"Thank you, dinner, Hasan."

Hasan nodded. Together they went from the joglo to the parking lot.

"Go home?"

"Yes, pity Irwan. Let's get some rest."

"Well, I'm going back to the office."

"Where do you live?"

"Mension paradise." replied Irwan as he handed over his card.

At first glance Hasan read the card given by Irwan. He smiled proudly.

"Great of you, Irwan. Don't forget your bundle and the one above."

"God, sir."

"Please stop by, sir. I'm glad you could come."

"Can, sometime. We can climb mountains again .... How's it?"

"Can, Sir. Long time Irwan is not adventurous."

"okay ...."

"Accoland ...."

"Wa Alaikum salam .." Hasan replied before he entered his car.

After Irwan left the place, he followed him to the streets, to return to the office.

The next morning, Herman returned to the police station. Signing the news of the prosecution of Maria, his second wife. Which he has also been using now.

Nyesek also felt, had to sue the person he should be able to protect. But that's not fair to her mother and her two children. And maybe for himself, too.

But finally signed the file. Even with different demands. Not to stay in jail too long. Enough punishment to deter him.

And pity papa Alfa too. He had to live alone in his old age

Before returning home, he visited Mary first.

"Maria, since when did you hook up with Bobby."

Long Maria was silent. That made Herman repeatedly take a deep breath.

"Is it because Bobby too, you're taking away mom's important papers."

Maria was silent, downcast. He soon heard her crying.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I want to go back to papa. But I know that you don't like me."

"You regret marrying me."

"Think of me being dark."

"But it doesn't have to be Bobby, does it?!"

"I don't know how to."

"Here you go, here are some books you can learn from. Later if you don't understand. You can ask this guy here. God willing, they understand a little."

"Thank you, Mum. How are the children."

"Sound children. Aldo is like me. Tia doesn't want to go home. He's coming with Zulfa."

"I'm a bad mother to them."

"I hope with this we will change."

"May I send greetings to them."

"Can. I hope I don't forget to say it."

"Thank you, Mum."

"Alhamdulillah, I'm just as good now."

"I'm sorry, doing this same mas."

"Are you going to wait for me?"

"Have you not received the letter?"

" It's been."

"What do you want to ask again?"

"I'm an ordinary man. Try to forgive yourself. Because there are children among us. But I have limitations too."

"Well, thank you for accepting me all this time."

"Can you forgive me too."

"I'm wrong, Mom."

"It has. I'll go home first."

"Thank you, look at me."

"Accoland ...."

"Wa Alaikum salam ...."

Herman moved from before Mary. Leaving the room with an increasingly tight chest.

How not, it turns out all this time, Maria was tricked by Bobby. That's what Alfa told him yesterday.

At first he thought that he was only dealing with Maria. Which has now been caught. But behind it all turns out to be Bobby, who is known to be a very cruel person.

Didn't know how to deal with it. If only Bobby would have ruined his life. Or the lives of those he loves.

Herman was just hoping, hopefully, that would never happen.

In the courtyard, he runs into Hasan.

"Hi, is it for me?"

"Former up."

"Marya?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"I'll go first."

"Yes." Yeah."

Herman walked in different directions with Hasan, headed for the parking lot and ran his motorbike leaving the police station complex.

Herman, Herman .. wife two. But no one can be defended. Irony right? ...

Although out of the police with a lethargic face, but not so when he arrived at his angkringan. He greeted with smiles from customers.

As a result, you can send money to Lika and send Aldo to school. And the cost of living with your mother and son. A little bit of money to buy a house. So that Tia can be invited to stay with him.

"Dad, I miss my sister and mother Zulfa. Take me there, Dad" said Aldo, after the afternoon.

"Alright, get ready first. I'll take you back."

It did not take long, Aldo had returned with his backpack full of.

"Here you go, Dad."

"Are you saying goodbye to grandma?"

"It."

"Ma, I'm leaving first."

"Yes, go. Greetings to Zuifa, yes ...."

"Goddess, Ma. Ariston ...."

"Wa Alaikum salam ...."

Herman immediately put on the helmet. And so does Aldo. Then ride his motorbike in a piggyback, leaving his residence towards ....

Why does everyone remember it. This guilt always binds me. Because you haven't forgiven me. Or will never forgive me.

Let's miss this

I'm going to put it on the Giver

Until this hope

It can happen someday

Angry hovering. For him there is no wrong way. Finally we got to our destination.

I never thought there was a black car. It's not Irwan's car. Care very much, but be careful too. Don't-don't ...

"Om Hasan, thank you for the color." Mutia said.

Turns out oh it turns out, you .. again. Touch people, there are only .... Herman grumbling.

Zulfa's mind, but he forgot Mutia. Yesterday we lost to Alfa. Now losing again to Hasan. Already done, enter aja ....

Thankfully, he remembered something. Yesterday when Aldo bought school supplies, there was a bando for Mutia. He's back on his bike.

He opened his motorcycle seat. Alhamdulillah. A small bando, decorated with butterflies, pink. Still neatly tucked away.

Quiet ... although in front, there is .. ich, the rival.

"Eh. Come on in."suggest Zulfa.

"No, I want to enjoy the afternoon outside" replied Hasan

"Yes already. I'm staying tight."

Why am I invisible to Zulfa ....
