My Long Journey And Dad
Chapter 4. Vilification
A slightly cloudy morning, cool air, angina swayed the trees around Mr. Herman's house. Mr. Herman is ready to go to work. The work is quite far and it takes angkot to take about 15 minutes. Mr. Herman works as a building whose salary is not much. Mr. Herman never complained, despite the rainstorm, the heat, or the cold. Because it is solely to meet the needs of the Son alone puppet.
Mr. Herman never demanded a large wage even though he worked very hard compared to other workers, so Mr. Herman was appointed as a foreman. But instead of making the other workers feel jealous, in the end they agreed to find a way to slander Mr. Herman in front of the Boss.
“Mari Bapak - our fathers have lunch first, it's break time!” Said Herman kindly.
“First, we follow,” said the other workers briefly.
In the end when Mr. Herman was eating lunch outside the building they worked together to take the capital money of the building and put it into a backpack owned by Mr. Herman that was lying on the outskirts. They took the money quite a lot and soon one of them named Rangga reported to the Boss named Hardoyo.
After hearing reports that Mr. Herman had snuck in that much money, Mr. Hardoyo could hardly believe it. Because Mr. Herman he knew couldn't have done that. But one of the people who reported earlier managed to force Mr. Hardoyo to follow him looking for evidence.
In the end, Mr. Hardoyo opened a backpack owned by Mr. Herman and it turned out that the contents of the bag were full of capital money building tens of millions, Mr. Hardoyo was angry and thought that Mr. Herman had stolen it.
“Call Herman soon to meet me!” mr. Hardoyo's voice was full of anger and loud.
“Good Boss, immediately I call.” replied Mr. Rangga, one of the people who slandered Mr. Herman. With happiness in my heart.
“Eh Herman called the same Boss!” while pointing towards the inside of the building to immediately follow him.
“What's up Mr Rangga?” replied Mr. Herman with a confused face,
“How do I know, samperin just there!” answered Mr. Rangga reticently.
“Good thanks sir the information,” said Mr. Herman while wrapping his food and immediately rose to enter the building.
Mr. Herman immediately looked for Mr. Hardoyo, then they met. Mr. Herman was confused because his boss looked so angry.
“Herman you are outrageous once, could betray my trust all this time!” firmly Mr. Hardoyo with a rough and high tone.
“Sorry apologies what is the Boss?, I really do not know what is – what,” replied Mr. Herman with a confused face
“What's – what's up, you're the Man who has taken the money building capital?” while handing Mr. Herman's backpack containing tens of millions of dollars.
“For God's sake no Boss. Let alone stealing that much money, seeing money that is not mine alone will not I take,” replied Mr. Herman kekeh.
“Many reasons!. I also cannot possibly accuse without evidence, obviously this is evidence already in place. What you want to cover. Please go from here, I do not want to hire a thief!”
“Yes already if the boss does not believe. The point is I've been honest, thank you very much for all this time the boss has been very good to me. Hopefully one day the truth will be revealed,” said Mr. Herman left the job.
Finally the other workers were happy for the disrespectful dismissal of Mr. Herman.
**
After a few months later, Mr. Hardoyo was confused by the financial capital of the building which felt drastically reduced. The material purchased was abal - abal. Mr. Hardoyo will not stay silent and find any evidence of fraud.
In the morning of Sunday Mr. Hardoyo came to the building project to monitor the state of the building even though it was a holiday. But he was confused why Mr. Rangga in the project, because Mr. Hardoyo's unwillingness to see suspicious movements. Then follow that person.
“That's Rangga, why the day gini he came to the project and for what?” he muttered with curiosity and confusion and finally Pak Hardoyo followed Rangga.
“Wah very good money capital in locker is still there. It's okay - what if I take, lucky that Herman I've got rid of, the new employee base pretentious to take the heart of the Boss to be the foreman” While taking money about 1 million.
Mr. Hardoyo arrived - suddenly caught Mr. Rangga who was stealing money in a special locker for placing capital money on building materials. Sontak Pak Rangga was very surprised.
“That's great, oh it turns out you who have been stealing capital money building materials?, just deserve all building materials purchased using abal materials - abal all. As a result the building is fragile and I also lost, where is your brain Rangga?” the voice of Mr. Hardoyo who arrived suddenly appeared while patting his hand repeatedly .
“This is not what Boss saw. It's not me who cheated!” with a panicked face did not dare to look at Mr. Hardoyo.
“Ah I already know all your rot. Do you still dare to cover the carcass again?. It turns out that you also have the heart to slander Hermah doing the kesuragan,”
“Truly this is not as expected Boss, emang herman who did it,” Whole face is reminiscent and flushed.
“Still lying to me, don't play to me Rangga, I'm not as stupid as you. All your suspicious actions and behavior have been recorded!” firmly Mr. Hardoyo.
Finally, Rangga confessed and apologized.
“I'm sorry Boss, I was forced to do this, because from the beginning I was very envious of Herman easily just worked a few weeks directly got the trust by the Boss and my Wife was pregnant, and I was pregnant, if giving birth requires a lot of money,” pretends to cry for Mr. Hardoyo to forgive him.
“Oh it's not that easy you apologize. What you do you have to account for!”
“Well if the Boss asks for that, but please do not imprison say Boss, because my Wife is pregnant at home,”
“Hi has gone mad this you, you ask me not to imprison you. You before doing the deed to think Herman how fate if fired, he is also like you have a child who is still small!”
“I'm sorry Boss, I'm khilaf”. Keep crying and looking down
“Don't call me Boss again!. And apologize to Herman, sorry I slandered him and believed easily all your words. Human beings have no heart!”
Finally Rangga escorted Mr. Hardoyo to the house of Mr. Herman to apologize and if Mr. Herman forgave, he said,
Mr. Rangga was not expelled and imprisoned. After taking about 15 minutes to ride in Mr. Hardoyo's car, arrived in the yard of Mr. Herman's house. And it turns out Mr. Herman wasn't at his house. During his dismissal Mr. Herman worked as a broomstick at his son's school.
“Assalamualaikum, is there anyone” said Mr. Hardoyo while knocking on the door repeatedly
After a long time they knocked on the door. There came a mother - a mother who asked for the arrival of Mr. Hardoyo and Mr. Rangga.
“Excuse me Father - I'm looking for Mr Herman yes?” ask the neighbor Mr. Herman
“Eh yes, do you know Mr. Herman where ya?” Mr. Hardoyo replied again.
“It just so happens sir, it has been a few months Mr. Herman worked at SDN 07 where his son went to school” explained neighbor Mr. Herman.

“Assalamualaikum, sorry what happened Mr Hardoyo and Mr Rangga guested?” Greetings Mr. Herman while thinking that is not - not about their arrival.
“Waalaikum greetings,” Replied Mr. Rangga and Mr. Hardoyo together.
“How are you Man, have not seen you for a long time, you work at your school, your son?, so great!” Mr. Hardoyo opened the chat.
“It's okay Man it's very noble,”
“Ah until forgot to tell enter, let's enter Pak” open the door and Ilham shook the carpet.
“Yes, thank you very much Man and Anak Cepar” said they both.
“Sama - same OM,” replied Ilham a friendly smile.
“Pak Hardoyo and Pak Rangga want to make tea or coffee?” Ask Mr. Herman
“Not bother - bother. Our intention here does not want to be troublesome,” said Mr. Hardoyo
“Absolutely not Sir, let's just have a good chat”
“Already his iced tea two hehe, hot air suitable cold cold.” Mr. Hardoyo said a little.
Mr. Herman also told Ilham to make a drink.
“Nak please make three ice the sweet!” ask Mr. Herman.
“Good for a moment sir, Ilham make it first,” Reply Ilham who entered the kitchen to make a drink.
“By the way - by the way we both here want to apologize to you Man,” said PaK Hardoyo.
“Apologies what sir?” Answer Mr. Herman who is a little confused.
“Apardon the incident a few months ago I did not believe you, I am very sorry when it treated you like that,” Submissive Mr. Hardoyo regret and shame.
“I also apologize to you Man has slandered you stealing project money, I am very sorry,” Sambar Pak Rangga accompanied by sobs
“Asstagfirullah just that problem, it's okay - what Mr. Rangga I have forgiven before you came to apologize and Mr. Hardoyo I do not feel vengeance for your treatment to me,” raised Pak Rangga's head bowed and let out tears.
“Your heart is made of what Man is, still forgiving the mistakes and slanders we treat you,”, said Mr. Hardoyo
“That bill, you should have a grudge against me, who had instigated the Boss to follow my selfishness,” Pak Rangga's cry broke out.
“It is already, the past let it pass. The important thing in the future is that Mr. Rangga does not cheat anymore and slander other coworkers, and Mr. Hardoyo apologizes for going forward knowing more about the nature of a person than having to trust others so quickly!” While rubbing Pak Rangga's back, Mr. Hardooyo only nodded regretfully.
After they forgave each other, the drink that Inspiration made came. Inspiration sat down beside his father
“Excuse me, please drink om iced tea made by Ilham hehe,” while putting a glass filled with tea in front of his father's friend.
“Wah - wah Man your son is very smart, and this is very tasty,” said mr. hardoyo praised Ilham
“Thank you Ilham is still learning,” Ilham replied with a big smile

“But very mature yes, like already a teenager, polite and not shy like other children,” Sambar Pak Rangga
“Allhamduliiah, I always teach the best to Inspiration,”
“ Very good and need to be exemplified. By the way, how much are you now, man? ” ask Mr. Hardoyo.
“Allhamdulillah suitable for eating a day - day Pak” replied Mr. Herman with a big smile.
“How about starting tomorrow you work back on the project, the salary is also quite good to pay for the contract as well,” bargained Mr. Hardoyo.
“No need sir, our salary is quite good, especially the Inspiration of the state school so there is no need for a lot of overspending” Reject Mr. Herman subtly feels bad.
“ You expect such a salary man, in the future no one knows. Life is not always like that either. Do not pity your young child, come on I beg you to work again, all this time also your work is very good!” Forced Mr Hardoyo.
After a long time of thinking, he must have a lot of money for the future Inspiration, because he does not want to live his Son like his father and to pay off monthly shop contract that he never occupied when selling cilok.
Finally, Mr. Herman agreed to the offer of Mr. Hardoyo, Pak hardoyo and Pak Rangga were happy to be back together to work together and it turns out that Mr. Rangga's mind that Mr. Herman likes to look for face is not true, Mr. Rangga was finally happy to be friends with Mr. Herman.

On a clear morning, the sun came to light the earth. After Ilham and Mr. Herman carried out the obligation of congregational dawn prayers they both had breakfast with a glass of milk and rice with an omelet side dish.
Mr. Herman was so happy that from today on he started working again on the project. Ilham was very happy because his father began to work more decent even though he needed a great struggle to make Ilham happy. For Ilham His father is a hero figure in his life, no matter how difficult the trials in their family, Mr. Herman never complained instead his father always encouraged Ilham and tried to provide support.
The clock shows at 06:30 Mr. Herman preparing to leave after bathing and dressing neatly. Inspiration will also go to school. So that they are not late they leave half an hour less than the entrance hour. They both think it's better to wait for the hour than the hour for us.
“Assalamualaikum Well, Ilham left first yes,” say goodbye to Mr. Herman, while kissing the back of Mr. Herman's right hand.
“Waalaikumsalam Nak, heart on the road, learn the right. If it's time to go home from school immediately go home first and play!” Replied Mr. Herman while squatting his son's height and kissing Ilham's forehead.
“Every Well, Dad also promise yes do not be too tired and do not forget to eat a lot, if tired rest!” Hugging his father.

“Waalaikumsalam, Allhamdulillah Man finally wants to work here again. I promise I won't repeat,” Little bowed his head and hoped Mr. Herman didn't get mad at him.
“Allhamdulillah if you are aware and the situation does not need to be remembered, we start a new page. We have to mutual mutual mutual mutual mutual mutual mutual and get along in order to immediately finish this building well.” replied Mr. Herman with a very wide smile and embrace Mr. Rangga to enter the building to be done.
