THE GRUDGE THAT BURNS

79.Looking at the past

Hamid saw the journey of his mother Argana's life in the past.Start from he was born and raised by his father.And his mother Argana always spoiled since childhood, since childhood,he was always kind to the crowd and never distinguished between rich and poor.For him, all humans are equal in the eyes of God.

Hamid also saw, that his mother Argana has a charm that can not be kept away from the word beautiful.Because of her beauty, many men in her school won her attention,he only responded to the wishes of the young men with a smile, because his heart was already held captive to a young man who was not from among the rich.The young man was only the son of a poor widow,whose job is only a traveling baker.

And the young man went to school here because of his cleverness and got a scholarship.Many children in that school stayed away from him, just because he was the son of people who did not have it.However, many children in that school stayed away,Arum even approached the young man.Every day they always met and everywhere was always together.Johan who knew his daughter befriended a young man who was only a child of the poor, not forbid.

At the time of his graduation, Arum and Fandi were at his school.There everyone also gathered, Arum was seen standing between two young men of his age.

The young man who was on his left was wrong Fandi, while the one on his right was Bimasena.Arum looked at the two young men in turn.He was confused who to choose, who to choose,because before his Fandi and Bimasena expressed their feelings to him.And he was confused who to choose.

He wanted to choose Fandi, but how he rejected Bimasena's feelings.He was only afraid, if Bimasena hurt his rejection.However he could not accept Bimasena's love.Because he never loved Bimasena in the least,his love is only for a Fandi.

And finally he decided to choose Fandi, Fandi immediately smiled because of his love of welcome.All the people who were there were sneering at Arum, because the girl preferred Fandi who was only the son of an unarmed person.While Bimasena, he was,he felt heartache for the rejection that Arum gave.At last he left the place and went home.

After graduation, Fandi and Arum enrolled themselves in the same faculty.And they were always on good terms until four years later they graduated.

And Fandi expressed his wish to Arum, that he wanted to meet Arum's father and propose to the girl.

"Arum, may I see your father." said Fandi as they sat next to each other at the stop

"Maybe, but why did you see my father?"ask Arum

"I want to propose to you." said Fandi who immediately made Arum surprised.The girl looked at her lover, she was only afraid if Fandi joked.However, she did not find Fandi's expression joking.His love said seriously.

Then Arum spoke the words of his beloved."Really true?"said to make sure Fandi said, he just wanted to find the truth

Fandi nodded."True.I really seriously want to be in a relationship with you Arum.I want us to build a beautiful mahligai household.I just want to live with you and our children later.Since my mother died, I want to be,I don't have anyone else.Even my father, I don't know where he is.So, let me meet your father and propose to you." said Fandi

Arum was immediately moved by the words of Fandi.And finally they decided to meet at Arum's house.

"Eating love alone will not be full, from the results of your work as a farmer which is enough to finance the life of my only child" Johan said

"God has determined for his servant uncle.Allah has arranged for his servant who is pious and always adores him." said Fandi

"You are good at saying, life is not as easy as you imagine.Go from here." said Johan kicked Fandi out, he was fed up with the young man
