Status I Never Wanted

Asking for Responsibility

This is the day my parents will meet the man. And since one of the old men was here, too. Therefore, my parents will immediately ask for accountability and solutions that do not make both parties feel disadvantaged by each other.

Yes, the man and his parents worked in the same place while in the area where I lived. And that's why it's the right thing to talk about it.

Because there is already one of the family of the man who will decide what the solution should be like.

At that time I did not come with my parents, when both my parents held me to account.

And I don't know what happened to the man when my parents told my parents about my situation.

Whether he was beaten, angry or whatever I don't know at all. And the only ones who knew were there when my parents held me to account.

But finally the final decision of the conversation was that we would get married in two weeks. Then my parents agreed. Then they went back home and told me the results of the conversation and to my entire extended family.

"Son, the man and his parents agreed to take responsibility. And the plan is that the man will marry you. Two weeks from now" said the father telling me about the man's decision. And because now my extended family is also at home so that West Java is also directly they all know.

"Did he really agree well" I said, asking for certainty.

"Yes" said the father, answering him briefly.

A few days after that conversation, we have not been able to tell you about this wedding. But it turns out we also heard that my neighbors who live a little distance from my house. I know the news.

Do you know who told them the news? Here I'll tell him. That the man who gave the news. None other than him, the man who told him.

Even if this is good news. But I think this is news that comes at an inopportune time. Why could that be? That's because this news came when I was in school and it wasn't just the news of the wedding.

But the news of my pregnancy was spread so easily to my distant neighbors.

"Say she married because she was pregnant?" said one of the neighbors who was overheard by one of my family about my current situation.

"Yes from her people directly that make her pregnant, he said the hell that they do a relationship that should not be in practice" said the neighbor again.

"The man's words ma'am?" said another neighbor who asked again the certainty of his words earlier and joined the conversation.

"Yes ma'am, who else if not her" said the neighbor who spread the news about my pregnancy.

And that's the cursory word I heard from my family when my family heard their words.

He didn't even hesitate to tell them the chronology of what he did to me the other day.

It was pain, shame, and guilt that I now experience. Because I can know him who shamelessly reveals his own disgrace and my disgrace to them.

Do I have to respond with joy or what I have to respond. People say that regret always comes at the end. And now I regret knowing him all this time.

"Just try I don't know the guy. Maybe at this time I won't experience this." said I regretting my meeting with the man.

But how else would all this have happened to me. And now all I have to do is accept it even if I say I don't want to accept any of this for free.

Because none of this will return to how it was. Wishes and dreams must be cut off so much for the news of this marriage.

Even though I don't want to drop out of school, but I really have to drop out of school because of the news of my pregnancy and marriage. If I continue school, it can't be done anymore. All my dreams and hopes have to stop here.
