prologues

The novel tells the story of a girl who surrenders her pride to an Old man.

My name is Almira, my friends call me Mira. I am 19 years old I come from a village in Bandung, and have graduated High School, I am also from an underprivileged family, to eat only our distress.

This morning was a very sad morning for me, I lost a person I loved very much, and I have not worked because I just graduated from school.

Mira, my mother called me out loud, I rushed to meet my mother, I saw my father who was lying stiff on the floor shattered instantly this heart, it felt like my whole world was destroyed not left, I saw my father, dear father who has loved me all this time I see stiff. I haven't been able to make it happy and realize his ideals, I hold my father's hand and his pulse is not throbbing anymore.

“My mother is dead, I”

“Takkkkkkkkkkkkk” shouted my mother with her firmness. “Don't go mas how me and our kids mas”

My mother was crying hard, my mother was only a housewife all this time who worked only father in tea plantation, I have 2 little sisters who are still in school.

I looked at the faces of my 2 younger siblings who are still in elementary school and Junior High School what about their future, the big question in my mind.

“Allah why you took my father so quickly I still need my father, many dreams that have not yet come true Lord”

I lifted my father to the bed, and the neighbors came to hear the screams of my mother, after that bathed my father's body, I saw his shining face, his sweet smile, my father said in his heart. I promise to take care of my mother and sisters.

When I finished, I delivered the father to his final resting place, I saw the body of the father put into the burrow, my heart was broken once again, now I am his daughter who has to fight alone.

I left my father at his last service, we came home devastated and did not know what to do with the debt that my father left for our living expenses during this time and my school.

That night Mr. Amir a boss in the tea garden came to the house.

“assalamualaikum says mr Amir”

I opened the door and I opened there was a 50-year-old male Amir boss with 2 bodyguards .

“Log in sir, sayku”

“Your mother has Mira”

“ada sir, I'll call you pak” for a minute

I sat down with Mr. Amir.

“ I am here will collect the debt of the deceased by 50 million”

“What a pack of that size”

“Ia because the mother's husband after borrowing never paid her, so the interest is more and more’

“My husband is dead sir how do I pay him”

“I don't want to know yes ma'am which is important mom has to pay it off no matter how mom pays it”

Suddenly Mr. Amir looked at me with an inappropriate look, he looked at me from top to bottom, I was very uncomfortable with Amir's treatment of me. And Mr. Amir took my hand and said.

“How about Mira be my only deposit, so your debt paid off”

I was silent for a moment. Mr. Amir said goodbye to coming home.

“Try mom think well of my words earlier, tomorrow mom make a decision”

That night I saw my mother and sister starving, there was no rice in the house, and we had nothing to work for. There is no other way for me that all the suffering of my mother and sister can be overcome.

Mom stroked my hair on the bed.

“ Son said mother, how this we do not have money and rice anymore, our last money to pay for the funeral of father.

I looked at my mother's face, and I held her hand.

“Mother let me fight for our family, mother let me be the mistress om Amir bu”

“What son will never let me let you sell yourself nak”

“Mother let me go, I won't be able to see mom and sister starving, let alone sister dropping out of school and money from where to pay the debt ma'am, 50 million is not a little money bu for us, not a little money,Until whenever we can't pay it off.

The night passed and the mother was still thinking about Mr. Amir's offer, we could not sleep soundly just tears that dripped on the cheeks, did not feel the morning arrived.

Mr. Amr came back home asking for my answer.

“How did Mira do you trima my offer?’

“ia pack I trima reply I'm clean, I want to be a deposit but with terms”

“What terms Mira”

“My father's debt is paid off, my sister has to go to school, our living expenses are all responsible fathers

“Quiet, okay anyway “

Accepting Amir means that I must be prepared for all the consequences, including the neighbors, and their ridicule.

“Mira you have to move from here to villa ku”

“He was kunku”

“Tomorrow I take you to ku” villa

Mom's sharp gaze made me feel very sinful, but there was no choice for me, in Mira's heart also whimpered disappointed with this life.

Seriate.
