Amelia Puteri, a beautiful and simple girl from a village. At just 19 years old, she just graduated from High School last year.
His mother and father were only farmers, which is the reason why Amel did not continue his education to a higher level. Especially now that his father is often sickly, because the age factor is also that it is not possible to continue working.
Today, Amel decides to go to the city to complain of fate. The main goal is only one, change the fate for the better.
"Ma, Amel pamit.."
"You sure baby, who are you there?" Ask Mama Ratna, Amel's mom.
"Amel sure Ma, Amel does not want to bother mama continues, especially now the father is often sickly. Amel's permission to go, Ma."
"If it's your decision, Mama can't be banned. Go and be careful, take care. Life in town is hard, baby." Mama Ratna.
"That's what makes Amel want to go to the city to study independently, Amel can certainly take care of himself."
"Ma, that's her travel car has come Amel to leave first yes." Pamit Amel's.
"Be careful Mel, mom and dad can only doain aja. If you've heard soon, yes, let mama not worry." Mama Ratna's Sweat.
Amel nodded his head, he hugged his mama tightly before leaving.
"Be careful there, take care of yourself.." Again, Amel just nodded his head in understanding.
Amel broke his embrace, then got into the travel car that today will take him to change his life.
"Neng, there already have a belom acquaintance?" Ask the travel driver because they already know, because the travel driver is still here.
"Not yet sir.."
"Father has the acquaintance of the contract owner, there Neng wants to contract."
"Yes definitely not contracted dong sir, continue if I do not contract where I sleep." Answer Amel.
"Later anter there, all at titipin."
"Well, thank you sir."
"Together." The driver replied, after that there was no more talk, they were both swept away in his own mind.
Until the sound of the phone that sounds loud, make their daydreams scatter.
Amel reached into his pocket to pick up his cell phone, and see who called him.
Arkan
"Ngapain the phone mulu nih guy, ngeselin." Grumbling Amel, Arkan is Amel's best friend from childhood.
"Hallo, what's wrong?" Ask Amel.
"Where are you? I went home, but said you'd gone into town, why Mel?"
"I-I want to go to work, I've told you that." Answer Amelia.
"Why don't you know if you leave today, Amel?" ask Arkan across the phone in a worried voice.
"Sorry Amel, Arkan, Amel just doesn't want to bother. Yes, I'm on the road."
"But Am.."
Her phone connection was cut off unilaterally by Amel, she knew Arkan was good at her but not with her parents. Although they were friends from childhood, but not even though Arkan's parents treated him well, they were always cynical to Amel just because Amel was the son of a farmer.
The flashback
Amel laughed at the joke from his best friend, Arkan. He can always make his mood come back good,
"Can I want a story?"
"By dong, let's tell you a friend." Answer Arkan.
"I-I want to find a job in the city."
"W-what? Why, you're working here in a cracker factory." Ask Arkan.
"What the hell, the taste is not enough. I'm bored anyway."
"Yaudah, you wait for me to digundurin myself first from his mama's factory, keep us going to the city together huh?" Tawar Arkan, yes Arkan parents have a tea factory.
"Will your mother not be angry?" Ask Amelia, she knows how hard Arkan's parents are.
"No, that's not it.."
"Don't give up on yourself just for me, Kan. You don't need to do that, I can take care of myself later." Said Amelia, she doesn't want to get into trouble anymore because of Arkan.
"I'm not self-sufficient, it's my own will. Yes, no need to think." Arkan rubbed the top of Amelia's head.
Many think that they are lovers, but in reality they are just friends no more.
Arkan had expressed his feelings to the beautiful girl who became his best friend several times, but Amel never answered his love expression.
They went home to each other, but tomorrow Amel's house boisterous because of the screams of a middle-aged woman, who was angry for some reason.
"Get out you fucking girl.." Shouts with strong emotions.
Amel who was cooking in the kitchen immediately went out of the house and approached the middle-aged mother.
Unexpectedly, a slap drifted to Amelia's right cheek, causing Amel to stagger to the side, her cheeks feeling hot and poignant.
"Mother this is nothing, this is nothing to do with Amel." Bela Arkan, yes the middle-aged woman is Arkan's mother.
"Silent Arkan, you're the girl who influenced my son to get out of my factory and follow you to the city, right?"
Amel looked at Arkan's mother wryly, his eyes glazed over. What mistake exactly made her mother Arkan so hate her.
"Jawab, don't shut up. You poor girl don't know herself, want her to be friends with rich kids so you can spoil it, right? I've memorized it with a girl like you." His words shouted, to invite the attention of other residents.
"Quite aunty, I think this has gone too far. All this time I kept quiet because I respected my aunt as my friend's parent, but now it proves that aunty is nothing more than a selfish parent."
"What's the reason aunt slapped me? did I have a fatal mistake, or was being friends with Arkan a mistake? Then tell my aunt not to see me again."
"While I have no intention whatsoever, I am a sincere Beeteman with Arkan. Why doesn't aunt like our friendship, is it because I'm poor? it's not my wish, but it's fate that makes me this way, then what's my fault exactly?" Amelia said, with tears rushing through, sliding freely from her two eyes.
"It's enough that I feel insulted aunt, I am indeed a poor girl who just wants to be friends with aunty children, but if it is a mistake, well I will never have anything to do with aunty children again, that's my promise."
"Amell's..."
"Enough Arkan, from the beginning I told you our friendship wouldn't work out as long as your mother likes to look at people from her possessions instead of her heart. Go Arkan, and don't see me again. Please, I don't want any trouble. I was disappointed, my heart hurt. Seek and befriend others who are equal to you, not me."
Amel went inside the house and closed the door tightly, he felt very sick at this time he needed calm, he wanted to be alone at this time.
Flashback Off
"I'm sorry Arkan, I don't want to deal with you anymore. I don't provoke your parents' emotions anymore, I hope you get a good friend from me."
