ALL ABOUT REVENGE

Grandpa's Message

Arriving at his house, Harjo looked very exhausted. He felt very desperate. For the sake of membeayai his two grandchildren, he must think hard to find money that is not a little in his old age. Tama is very sad. He then went to the kitchen to get drinking water for Harjo.

Harjo also drank a glass of water from Tama. Sweat began to pour out after he finished one glass of drinking water quickly. But his feelings are a little calm. Tama gave him a cool breeze by fanning him using a fan made of bamboo.

Harjo smiled, then looked at Tama deeply. I don't know what Harjo is looking at. But he let Harjo look at him.

" More.."

" It, Cake.."

" Good grandpa was proud of you. Be a great kid. Grandpa sure your parents want what you want too. Cultivate brotherhood among you with Khalid. Don't let you guys get scattered. That's Grandpa's message. Promise me to Grandpa."

" I promise, Cake. I'll always remember Grandpa's message. But even if Grandpa doesn't tell me, I'll always be with Khalid."

" Good.that's what Grandpa expected." said Harjo as he laughed and coughed.

Shortly after, Khalid arrived home. He came home with a grim looking face. His body was as lethargic as helpless. After He had laid his bicycle in the tree, He went into the house. He finds Harjo talking to Tama.

" My grandfather came home" Khalid said, kissing Harjo's hand.

" Thank God you're home, Khalid. Come here." said Harjo with a cough.

" Yes, Cake. What's the matter, Grandpa sent me here?"

" Sit..Grandpa wants to talk to you guys." said Harjo as he adjusted his breathing.

Khalid and Tama are curious about Harjo. They didn't expect Harjo to say anything bad to them. Especially about school. Tama and Khalid both didn't want to drop out of school.

" There's something Grandpa wants to tell you. Are you guys ready?" harjo said as he rubbed his sweat running down his face.

" What does Grandpa want to say?" ask Khalid.

" We're ready, Cake." said Tama.

" Khalid, get me the green book in the cupboard." pinta Harjo as he points his hand at an old cupboard that is almost fragile with age.

" Okay, Kek." said Khalid and immediately took a land certificate belonging to Harjo, after he opened the closet.

" Yes right, that's Khalid. Please bring it here."

" Yes, Cake.."

Tama was curious about the green book that Khalid had brought. It was like knowing the book. The book is similar to the green book in her home. He asked Harjo.

" Cake, what's that?" ask Tama.

" This is Grandpa's land certificate. Well.although the land is small, but now the price is very expensive."

" Why did Grandpa take the certificate?" ask Khalid.

" Khalid, Tama, this is Grandpa's only treasure. Grandpa has nothing left."

" Well, Grandpa, what's the certificate going to do?" tama asked while holding Harjo's cold hand.

" Tama, Khalid.would you still want to continue school until you finish?"

" Yes, I really want it" Khalid said.

" Grandfather, I also want to go to school like my twin brother. I want to be a smart kid." said Tama.

" Okay, I'm glad to hear that. Khalid.I entrust this book to you. Give this certificate to the Principal for your education guarantee."

" So, Grandpa's going to sell Grandpa's house? Then where are we gonna live?" khalid said, surprised by Harjo's words.

" You can still stay here. The certificate is not this land certificate. But Grandpa's land is somewhere else. Just give it to the Principal so you can still go to school to college."

" But, Cake.. It belongs to Grandpa. I don't want to accept it. I'd rather not go to school than trouble Grandpa." said Khalid.

" You have to accept it. Khalid's. That's the only way for you and Tama to go to school. Don't think about Grandpa. Grandpa has no one left. You're the one who's gonna inherit what Grandpa has."

" Grandfather, I promised to go to school with my own money. I'm going to make a lot of money to go to school" Tama said.

" Tama.Where do you want to find money? And how are you going to make money? Focus learning. Let Grandpa guarantee you your school fees."

" Believe Grandpa, this land is worth hundreds of millions. Enough to make you two go to school. Don't Worry."

" Let Grandpa keep it. Why should I be given?"

" Khalid's.. Tomorrow, the certificate was given to Mr. Zamani. My grandfather wrote a letter to her too. Get the envelope under Grandpa's pillow on the bed."

" Okay, Cake."

Khalid immediately went to Harjo's room. He opened a well-appointed pillow. He took an envelope from under the pillow.

" This, Cake?"

" yes.. Well, tomorrow give this envelope to Mr. Principal along with the green book you brought it. Just tell him that Grandpa gave it to your school bail."

" Why didn't Grandpa go to school? I'm afraid of being wrong, Cake. I was always scolded by my Teachers even though I did nothing wrong. I don't want to go to school there anymore."

" Be patient, Khalid. Do not despair of their behavior towards you. You must be able to control yourself if you want to succeed."

" Sister, is it true that Big Brother's Teachers are evil?" tanya Tama who had been silent since then watched Harjo and Khalid speak.

" I don't know what my fault is, the important thing is they like to scold me for no reason. I'm ashamed of my friends."

" Yeah, Khalid..No need to care about their attitude. It will make you strong. Strong mentally and physically. Trust in Grandpa. What matters is that you do not despair. Surely they will also be tired of their own attitude, if we don't care about it."

" Okay, Cake." said Khalid and Tama together.

" Yes already.Then Grandpa wants to rest first. Today Grandpa was very tired" said Harjo and went into his room.

" Tama..do you feel weird about Grandpa's attitude?"

" It's strange why, brother. He's Grandpa, not anyone else."

" Well, you don't know. I feel like there's something weird about Grandpa. His face was not as fresh as usual. Is it possible that Grandpa didn't sleep last night for writing this letter?"

" Yes, Grandpa's face is also a bit pale almost like my family's dead."

" Hushh.don't do that. Is grandpa sick, huh?"

" Sister, just ask Grandpa. If it hurts, we'll have to take him to the doctor."

" Okay, I'll try asking. But I don't dare knock on the door if Grandpa's in the room. I'm afraid to surprise her."

" Let me, brother. I'll call him from the outside."

" Alright, Tama. Be careful not to make Him Shocked. He's very old."

Without fear, Tama approached Harjo's room. He called her and asked her.

" Cake, is Grandpa sick?"

Harjo replied in a hoarse tone." No, Tama. Grandpa just felt exhausted. Don't Worry."

" Let's just let Tama go, shall we? I can, I'll spit."

" No need, Tama. You better play with your brother. If you want to find fish, you can. But don't be long. Don't go far." said Harjo.

" How about Grandpa?"

" It will also heal itself if Grandpa has rest. Go, Tama."

" Hemhh.well, Cake. I'll take Brother Khalid for a fish."

" Why, Tama?" ask Khalid.

" Grandfather is okay. He said just tired. Grandpa said we were being dragged out for fish."

" In that case, let's go to the river! We're looking for a lot of fish!" shout Khalid.

Unsuspecting, Khalid and Tama go to the river in search of fish. Armed with a makeshift fishing gear, they went to the river not far from Harjo's house. Meanwhile, Harjo felt his body extremely cold. He took his blanket and covered himself until he reached his head. In his heart he wondered what was wrong with him.
