Chapter 3 - SMTKS 3

Hajar was very surprised, how could someone visit her house so suddenly and even on a hot day because it is usually very rare for someone to visit her house.

"This uncle mama gave me a lot of basket-fried chicken," said Yakub, smiling at Hajar.

"Did you say thank you, son?" asked Hajar to her son.

"Well, by the way, now I remember that Uncle is the person I said that I had looked at Mama with great admiration at the cafe," said Yakub.

Immediately, Hajar was surprised how this person could admire her. Meanwhile, he thought the man was too handsome and seemed to be a rich, upper-class person while he was just an ordinary person from the middle class.

"Excuse me, sir, is there anything I can help you with, and what do you mean by giving my child some food?" asked Hajar who was to the point.

"I just moved house and we are now neighbors, my house is next to yours. As a new neighbor I want to be friendly by sharing food," said Ilyas, who was sure that it seemed that Hajar didn't recognize him anymore.

"Thank you sir for being friendly to us, it's only natural that there were lots of freight cars besides. It turns out that you are a new resident from the house next door. Oh yes, what's your name, sir?" said Hajar who smiled sweetly.

"I'm Ilyas, Mrs. Hajar nice to meet you and your son, Jacob l a sweet boy and also very good," said Ilyas feeling amazed by the 5-year-old boy who was very polite and obedient.

At this time Yakub did not care about Ilyas who was praising him, because yes he was busy counting the basket chickens brought by Ilyas he saw so many basket chickens that were brought by their new neighbor, of course, he felt very happy and also felt very happy. want to eat his favorite fried chicken.

Previously, I was in Ilyas after having a conversation with Yakub who was very friendly and very intelligent than a normal 5-year-old boy who mostly wouldn't care about new people.

"Greetings to meet Mr. Ilyas and it looks like you already know my son Yakub. You can ask me or my son for help later if you are in a problem," said Hajar kindly.

"Thank you Mrs. Hajar besides your beautiful voice and you are very good at playing the piano, you are also very friendly and kind," said Ilyas who still pretended not to recognize a Hajar because he couldn't possibly say to Hajar who didn't seem to know him at all and forced Hajar to remember it would worsen his relationship later in the future it's better Ilyas pretended to have just recognized a Hajar.

Even though from the bottom of his heart Ilyas was very unwilling if the little girl he loved so much forgot about him, slowly he will try to remind Hajar about their story a dozen years ago.

"Oh yes sorry Mrs. Hajar earlier, do you live with your husband?" said Ilyas, who had been trying to be careful not to offend Hajar.

"No sir I am not married," said Hajar honestly.

"Then forgive me for offending you madam," said Illinois, Ilyas.

"It's okay God I'm not offended," said Hajar with a sweet smile.

"Why did Uncle say so formally to Mama, didn't Uncle earlier when talking to me ask that I should just call Uncle? Why didn't Uncle and Mama not call in a casual word?" said Yakub.

The two adults also felt very impressed with their thoughts of Jacob, he could even distinguish between formal and informal situations, of course, the kind attitude of his son was different from that of Ilyas, who for the first time interacted directly with Yakub, who was certainly very impressed. with the little boy who was a genius to him.

"Earlier, Mama and Uncle Ilyas were formal because it was the first time we met. Unlike us, if we are already close, maybe we will replace the call with another call," said Hajar who felt very confused by the question asked by his son.

"Well then since I have called you Jacob, I will call your Mama by the name of Mama Jacob only. Do you agree?" asked Ilyas Yakub.

"Yes Uncle I agree because this is Mama, only Mama Yakub at this time," said Yakub.

For now, what Jacob said is true because maybe later Hajar will marry him and of course, will have children with him then Hajar will not only be the mother of Yakub but also the mother of his children. Even Ilyas didn't care if previously Hajar had a child out of wedlock or whatever. The most important thing for him is that Hajar is currently unmarried and for him, that is very good news.

Meanwhile, Hajar was only able to smile sweetly seeing her son's behavior which was very adorable for her, only her son was very smart and easily caught any lesson taught by him or at school, Yakub was a very smart and impressed genius from his other friends.

"Mama it's noon now. Can I eat this fried chicken?" asked Yakub who asked permission to beat up.

"Yes, son. Let's have lunch, don't you intend to invite your new Uncle to have lunch with you?" said Hajar to her son.

"Oh yeah, I forgot..., Uncle wants to come to lunch with me and Mama. Mama has also cooked other very good food, you know?" said Jacob.

"Can?" asked Ilyas, yes, he felt very curious about the cuisine of his little girl.

"Of course, you can, sir, I mean Uncle Ilyas," said Hajar who immediately answered Ilyas' words because he remembered that his son wanted them not to use formal language.

Of course, Ilyas felt very funny about Hajar's call, but for him, the call was better than God's call, which seemed very formal, at least he was considered by Hajar to be a new friendly neighbor.

"Come on, uncle, let's eat together. Let's go to the dinner table. Mama has cooked very good food, Uncle. You will like it later and it's not impossible to finish it all." said Yakub who immediately became very familiar with Ilyas.

Their new neighbor, who was none other than Ilyas and even Yakub, had grabbed Ilyas' hand to invite the very handsome adult man into the house and headed towards the dining room.
