a mother who lives in a small village in Cimahi, West Java, with her youngest child, Ariani, who is 8 years old. Her husband works abroad in Papua. While the eldest child and second child work as migrant workers in Hong Kong and Malaysia. Supinah has not seen her husband and two children for the last 3 years. When her husband and children expressed their desire to go home, Supinah always replied, “You don't have to go home. Better to just save the money. We can communicate over the phone." Supinah actually hurt when she said that. Who doesn't miss and want to meet their beloved husband and children? Today is Ariani's birthday. Supinah has been busy making a perfunctory yellow rice to celebrate her youngest birthday in a simple way. While she was frying food in the kitchen, Supinah called Ariani to get her soy sauce, "Ani, please get me soy sauce, son." Without looking back, Supinah accepted the soy sauce given by Ariani. "Is there anything else you need?" Supinah suddenly turned around because it was not Ariani's voice. It was the voice of Herman, his eldest son who worked in Hong Kong. "Man! Astagfirullah! Is it really you, Herman?” Supinah turned around while holding her son's cheeks. "Yes, ma'am. This is Herman," Herman replied, hugging Supinah. Not long after, a sweet-looking young woman entered the kitchen holding Ariani, "Assalamualaikum, Mother. Sorry, Devi didn't come right away, after Ani can't wait to see the gift, Mom." "Dear Allah! Herman! Goddess! You go home, son," Supinah's tears broke because the longing that was raging in her heart was now healed. Supinah's happiness was even more complete when Priyanto, her husband, came that afternoon. They chatted with each other, exchanged stories with each other, and enjoyed Supinah's simple yellow rice. This moment is the most beautiful gift for Ariani and Supinah. For them, true happiness does not come from wealth or wealth, but from a sense of togetherness that is present when all family members can gather together even in simplicity.
