Heart Voice

Chapters. 35

There were 5 ignorant santri who were caught, when asked why they disguised themselves as pocong, first he said the guts test, while in the pesantren the place is not as scary, the second reason for wanting to make a prank.

"You're aware no? By your actions, many students who rarely want to join the tadarus night again in the mosque, this harms themselves and your friends! You guys know!!" Ustad Fatkhur.

"And about prank, you guys must have recorded this, right? Bring hp dong? And in this pesantren, you can only use hp on Sundays only, and must be collected first to your pesantren guardian, while this is still Wednesday, bring it up!" Akbar said firmly.

Two other santri gave his hp, and Ustad Fatkhur kept it, it was about to be destroyed. But considering, buying the phone was also using parents' money, they worked hard to be able to buy the phone, it was, so Ustad Fatkhur will only call the guardian or parent to the five students to come to the boarding school.

"Don't Ustad, my parents aren't around, and I only have a grandmother, I'm afraid she'll be sad to see this all" said one of the students.

Ustad Fatkhur was eager to scold the boy, but was prevented by Syakir and Akbar, now they received mental guidance from Syakir and Akbar.

"You come with grandma, let's sit here near Brother, don't be afraid" said Akbar.

The boy sat down near Akbar with fear, his finger unsettled as Akbar called out to him.

"Whose name?" Ask Akbar.

"Andu Ustad" replied the boy in a trembling tone.

"Call him Abang aja yes" said Akbar holding the child's hand.

"Now answer honestly, why do you follow them to judge other santri brothers? Don't you pity those who want to study so scared when they want to go out for the night? And what you see, you're not a bad boy like everyone else." Ask Akbar.

"I was forced to join Bang, for God's sake I was only forced to come along. Gani said if I didn't come, I would be bullied like Roni and if I couldn't be disinclined and scared of people, I wouldn't be of any use in this world, because I'm a child....." Danu said crying.

"Which Gani and which Roni?" Ask Akbar.

"Gani who brought Bang hp, she was scared by santri se room, while Roni who disguised as a pocong earlier" said Danu crying.

"I am 13 years old, and only entered 3 months ago Bang, I beg you not to call grandma yes Brother, I am afraid for her to be disappointed" said Danu as he cried.

"Have you not disappointed him yet, by doing something like this? You said you only live with your grandmother, then where are your parents?" Ask Akbar.

"Kata Almahrum Mother, I'm the bastard son of Bang, so I have no Father, while Mom died already since I was 9 know "Danu said just keep crying.

"What is your motivation to enter the pesantren? Because you're alone or because of grandma, or because of someone else's compulsion?" Ask Akbar.

"Say my grandmother must be a useful person Bang, so I proposed to enter the pesantren. And with great difficulty, my grandmother put me into this boarding school, but I did not know that being a useful person should be disinclined, said Gani, but I was afraid that I had done something wrong, I regret" Danu said plain.

"Don't be afraid to make a mistake. Make sure you don't make the same mistake twice. Try not to be a person who is afraid and reluctant, but rather try to be a valuable person. Prove to your father, that you are not a child who deserves to be camped" Akbar said embracing Danu, while Danu was still crying.

"But you made a mistake, and you still have to be punished, about your grandmother, the brother who will help talk to her, now you get back together with your friends, and obey what Ustad Fatkhur says and the rules of pesantren.

Danu also walked and sat among his friends, Akbar let out a long sigh, he was the same fate as Danu, had no mother, had no mother, but Akbar is still lucky to have a biological father and adoptive parents like Ruchan and Leah.

About the bastard? As soon as he remembered Diaz, his fate was also like that, unwanted by his biological father, his mother's family did not care either.

"Oh Akbar, which favor you deny again, there are still many children who are not as lucky as you" said Akbar himself.

"Why should they call a bastard?" Akbar said with tears.

Children born as a result of illicit and illegitimate relationships are what some of our society later dubbed as "haram" children". For a moment let us think, should the child born out of wedlock be called an illegitimate child? They must accept social punishment for the irresponsible behavior of their parents. This is very unfair, because they never asked to be born with a bad destiny. Psychologically, the term "illegitimate child" certainly hurt their hearts. His mental development may be disrupted. While they should also deserve a normal life without the frills of that title behind their names. Surely they do not accept to be called "sons".

Can we stop calling them illegitimate children?
