Tamara's Forced Marriage

Chapter 2

Tamara's meeting with Reza started from this pesantren. Reza's house is close to the pesantren where Tamara is lodged. When Tamara and Rista go out to buy personal necessities at a nearby store, Tamara and Rista are confronted by a gang of mischievous youths.

Tamara with her tomboyish nature was never afraid of the young man's interference. Tamara faced him casually as she was a silat master. It's just that he just remembered that he was wearing a scabbard. Of course it will make it difficult to fight.

Rista had been very scared. He did not think there was such a young man in this village.

As Tamara advances, the group of young men increasingly becomes. He wants to catch Tamara the very beautiful girl to be his prey tonight. Rista is asked to run by Tamara. But Rista could not bear, he shouted for help to the residents.

The road that he passed was quite quiet that night, not as usual.

One hand the young man had managed to hold the white-skinned hand. They pulled Tamara. But suddenly from behind the group of young men there was a handsome man bravely kicking their backs one by one quickly.

All were stunned to notice the man's action. None of them could bounce back from his defeat against the handsome man. They chose to retreat and let the two girls pass.

Reza rushed towards Tamara and Rista who seemed to want to disappear quickly.

“Wait..” shouted Reza

They both stopped, turned around and thanked him.

“Just thank you?”

“Many girls want to know me. Don't you want to know me too? My name is Reza,” said the man

“I'm Tamara and this is Rista. Thanks Reza. I don't know what I would be if there wasn't you,” said Tamara, who had imagined something bad would happen.

Reza is a resident around the cottage who is martial arts. One village even knew him.

The girl in the village also liked the man a lot. Same goes for Tamara who seems to like her.

“You seem like a city boy huh?”

“Iya, I just entered the cottage this afternoon.”

Rista withdrew Tamara's hand so that she would not chat for much longer. Because surely Umi will be angry if they break the rules.

“Sorry we have to go back.”

Arriving at the gate of the cottage, there was already Umi and also her husband, Haji Maskuri. They were worried about the two who had not yet returned home.

“Assalamu’alaikum. Sorry Umi, Abi, we're late. Don't punish us,” said Rista shaking

Tamara just lowered her head. Rista intended to say everything that had happened earlier. But Tamara put him in custody by pinching his hand. Tamara knows that if Rista reports for sure her business will be long and not allowed to go out. Even his father will be told about this.

“You why are late? Where are you taking Tamara?” ask Umi worried

Rista simply looked down without answering. Umi finds the tip of Tamara's sleeve torn small, the,

“This is why, Mara?”

“So there was a little incident, Umi.”

“What events?”

“Only stuck, Umi. There was a crowded store crammed, as we stepped wanting to go I into the push and my sleeves got caught in the wall spikes. So this is how my clothes, Umi,” clearly Rista staggered

“Truely so, Rista?”

“Iya, Umi.”

Rista assented to the unreasonable reason his new friend was while holding back a laugh. After Umi and Abi received the answer, they told the two of them to go in and rest. Umi and Abi also knew there was something they were hiding, but he knew they were scared.

In her cramped room, Tamara could not sleep. He widened his eyes to the ceiling of his bedroom roof when he remembered Reza. Reza's good looks are twice that of his father. Only this time Tamara could feel her heart as if it were a man. Although in the city many men like it but there is no man as handsome and as brave as Reza.

In the morning at four they must be in the mosque in a state of bathing. That's been the cottage rule.

While waiting for dawn they are required to read the Qur’an but not deposited.

While at the mosque Tamara's work simply evaporated, all night she could not sleep because of the many mosquitoes and the hot air. With a sitting position he fell asleep accidentally to make himself fall. The people who saw it were certainly chuckling. Rista caught him and woke up his friend.

“Ra, Ra, no Umi.

“Sssrppp Tamara touched the tip of her lips while wiping if there was anything there. Rista laughed by fixing her slanted friend's face.

After the dawn prayer then all the santri go to the kitchen to take breakfast that has been provided by the picket team today.

Sipping tea from her glass, Rista whispered something in Tamara's ear.

“Remember... You will go to school for the first time here. You will meet in front of the class. So prepare yourself.”

“It's easy. I used to speak in public, Hahaha. Even I often make shame,” chandelier

“You are already talented.” They both laughed

At his new high school.

“Include friends, I am Tamara Adelia Permana. You can call at will, just don't call my last name. My father will be angry.”

“Thank you Tamara for the introduction. Maybe something you want to ask Tamara?”

All speechless. Only one person asked the question. The most recalcitrant student in the cottage.

“Tamara, do you have a boyfriend?” tanya Antok, the transfer student is also from the city. The same fate as Tamara a few months earlier.

“Do not ask like that, Anto,” said bu Afifah.

“Tak what ma'am I will answer. No, I'm still single all my life. Who wants a list can but must be selected first, my heart is not easy to tap must be broken.” All the students in the class laughed

“Already... Tamara just joking yes.” Ms. Afif calmed the rowdy class made her new protege.

It seems like there will be extra energy that he has to spend to educate the child. Until a few days have passed. Tamara has now been in that place for a month.

He feels good about his days. There is no tongkrongan event. Sure oes. Until one day he asked permission for Umi to come out for a while on the grounds of buying monthly necessities, this time without Rista.

Rista is not his friend. Umi allows only a few minutes. Tamara nodded. But he intends to stay longer. He wanted to go to the beach not far from the store.

In the store he only takes needs when it comes to the moon. After that he went behind the village hall. There he found a small beach with incredible views. Tamara tiptoed up in excitement, releasing the fatigue that had been attached to her body. He even rolled on the sand of the beach until his clothes were so dirty. Only then did he realize after his clothes were wet by the waves.

“Duh. This game, must be found out with Umi.”

“Some I can help you with, bidadari?” Tamara was surprised that someone called her an angel. Apparently Reza.

“Za, it turns out you. Do you have loose women's clothes? Your brother's probably? Can I borrow it? My clothes are wet and dirty as you can see.”

“Come with me.”

Reza took him to walk a little far from the beach until he stopped at the souvenir shop that lined there.

“Take as you please. I'll pay.”

***Will Tamara be discovered by Umi? Or will anyone report them to the pesantren?
