THE POWER OF MOM
In the living room, after having dinner, Maryam and her children go to living room. Maryam
is knitting, Jeno is doing homework, while Jojo and Vinka are playing bekelball .
Maryam : “Yes, I still remember him. He used to come here and pick you up, didn’t he?
Why?”
Jojo : “Well sometimes this life is unpredictable. Everything can be changed. So does him.”
Jeno : “He…ah….drop out from school because he always absent. He seems like doesn’t care
about his life, his education, and his future actually.”
Maryam. : (sigh) “I am sorry to hear that, but my children, you should know that your future
is on your own hand. Study hard, and reach your dream!”
Vinka : “School makes me sick. We spend a lot of money for something can’t guarantee my
future 100% perfect.”
Maryam. : “Enough, kid. Hm…There are so many people who work hard for their future for
getting better live. Kids,do you know Prof. Fikri?
Maryam. : “hm…ehm… did you think he come from rich family? No dear. He was poor, just
like us. Let me tell you about him. He had no parent when he was fifteen. Can you imagine
what he felt at that time?”
Jojo : “Vin! That’s not the way how you talk to our mother.”
(Vinka, Jeno, Jojo are silent)
Maryam. : “I think it’s better for you to look at his effort in reaching his dream, getting a
better life just like now.”
The next afternoon, as usual, Professor Fikri is reading a newspaper in histerrace house.
Then, Maryam bring him a cup of tea, just as usual.
Professor. : “Thank you!you can put there” (The Professor glances at Maryam) “Are you Ok?
You look pale.”

(Professor and Maryam are silent)
Professor. : “It has been a long time I don’t see your children. Are they OK?“
Maryam : “yes. he always becomes the best student in his school.” (smiling. Her face show
that she is very proud to jojo)
Professor : “What a great! He must be received in every best university in this country”
Professor :“What about your husband? Have he contacted you? Is there any news from him?
