WHO ARE YOU?

WHO ARE YOU?
The Most Beautiful Dinner


"Okay, Abak," they answered simultaneously.


Kania and his family walked down the hill, down the rice field until finally arrived at home. Abak and Revano prayed at a musala not far from their home while Kania and Bundo soon entered the house to perform magrib prayers together.


After finishing the prayer, Kania and Bundo prepared dinner dishes.


This time the dish looks different than usual, classified as many and luxurious for their family size.


Kania also felt astonished, all this food was like being prepared to welcome him and Alex.


"Darling, are you wondering why there's so much food tonight?" tanya Bundo while looking at the face of Kania who was thinking about what bundo guessed.


Kania turned his head towards the bundo, and looked at the bundo closely, then Kania nodded as a justification of what the bundo had just questioned.


"Son, I don't know why this morning Bundo and Abak had a hunch that you were coming. So Abak went fishing and got a lot of fish, Abak also took vegetables in the fields we then asked Bundo to cook all these food," explained bundo while smiling sweetly to Kania.


Bundo's wrinkled face looks very bright and beautiful even though it is only illuminated with kerosene-fueled lights and with makeshift light.


"Thank you very much, Bundo, Nia is very happy because Nia really misses Bundo's cooking," said Kanja with her best smile.


Kania clasped his hand while smiling sweetly at him with a heart and a very happy feeling. Kania wants to enjoy those happy times and is left with the bundo before he is called back to the future.


"Assalamualaik."


There was the sound of my brother and Alex had just returned from the musala.


Kania and Bundo immediately greeted her, with a bright smile clearly drawn on the faces of the two.


Really, it looks like a very harmonious family.


"Son Alex, let's eat!"


Bundo took Alex by the hand and took the handsome man to the dining room, fetching food and serving Alex the best food. Like the treatment of an in-law to a daughter-in-law who is very dear to him.


"Son Alex has he ever eaten Padang cuisine like this?" tanya Bundo was friendly and very polite.


Alex nodded, only that he had never seen Padang cuisine as it was bundo serve. All the food served looks very delicious and really very appetizing. Alex looks impatient to eat the food immediately.


"Eat, Son!" As if you understand that Alex is now impatient to taste the food, Bundo let Alex eat.


While Kania, he took food for his brother, he did it as if he took food for his beloved father, at least his longing for the father could be treated.


"Sir, here," said Kania sounding friendly and polite.


"Darling, this is Bundo having food for you, eat it, son!" say bundo with eyes that look sparkling.


Kania looked at Bundo's face with an expectant look, as if she was eager to say something, but her tongue was too stiff to reveal.


"Darling, do you want to be fed to Bundo?" said bundo who also seemed to understand the contents of Kania's heart.


Kania nodded in embarrassment, because at her age who was no longer young, she was eager to eat from the hands of the bundo. Yes, the thing he used to do with his mother when he was alive. Kania often spoiled and asked Bundo to bribe her when she was having a difficult day.


"Kania, you are exactly like Siti, son," said bundo while remembering his beloved daughter who is no longer in this world.


Siti is also a very spoiled child, she often eats fed by bundo, and the beautiful girl will eat with voraciously and a lot when eating from bundo.


"Bundo, Kania will definitely miss these wonderful times where we have family dinner with a heart and feeling very happy and happy like this. We really look like a real family" Kania said.


Kania expresses her heart, that she very much misses a very beautiful family dinner like this with her family in the future as well, but all her hopes could no longer come true because her mother was no longer in this world.


"Honey, later after your Papa returns home, then cook Padang cuisine like this, this is God the relationship of father and son will return tightly, the misunderstanding between the two of you will soon melt, the misunderstanding between the two of you will soon melt away, because all parents love their children and no parent can hurt their children. They just hide the wounds in his heart and the pain in his heart that he keeps himself must be very painful because he has hurt the heart and feelings of his son," explained Abak.


Abak seems to be very familiar with Kania's feelings at this time, especially after Kania told him about his parents and how his future narratives are almost the same as Siti.


"Yes, son, there are no parents who are not affectionate to their children, they are just depressed and in a difficult situation" said Bundo, confirming what he said.


"Son Alex, you said you were going to marry Kania, right?"


Abak turned his face to look at Alex, looking very serious, as if he was talking to his future daughter-in-law.


"Yes, Abak," Alex replied in a loud voice.


"You take care of Kania, be happy with her and never hurt her heart and feelings because a man's self-esteem is what he says and how he treats the people he cares about."


Abak's advice is the best advice I've ever heard, advice from parents who will give their favorite daughter-in-law to her son's choice of daughter-in-law.


Abak also advised that Alex and Kania should undergo a marriage based on religion in which the Koran and hadith are the guidelines. In addition, the message of abak so that we carry out Minangkabau customs in living a modern life that may be very far from religion and customs.


"Yes, Abak, thank you very much for all the advice that Abak and Bundo gave us. It feels like we are really lucky to go back in time like this" Alex replied with a smile.


"Do you guys just stay here, son?" bundo said.


Bundo seemed to want Kania and Alex to live in the past, living a happy life with his brother and bundo. However, what should Kania fail if he has a responsibility in the future that is his responsibility.


Kania understands very well that her parents in the past loved and loved her very much and expected her to remain in the past, but there is more need Kania is his papa who is currently still sealed by om Galih.
