THE GRUDGE THAT BURNS

88.

TING'S.

The sound of a message goes to Fandi's phone, it just so happens that he has not slept.She quickly wiped his phone screen and opened the contents of the message.

+628....

[Tomorrow at ten o'clock, you come to my house and prepare yourself to marry Arum. ]

Apparently, Sandy could guess who the owner of this number was.

[Good Om, how much Arum dowry.] Fandi asked the owner of the number, not long after he got a reply.

+628....

[You don't have to ask, just come along or your marriage IS OFF.]

[Okay, I'll come. ]

After ending his message, Fandi immediately poured down his body.Then he slept.

As for Johan, he had called Bastian this afternoon to prepare everything.The wedding party for his daughter tomorrow is not big, just a contract.And only attended by people closest to Johan alone.If only Arum did not do that, just do not do it,surely Johan will have his daughter's wedding party in a big way.

He glanced at his watch, it was eleven o'clock at night.His eyes were sleepy,but it feels like he was reluctant to sleep.Then he took a photo of him and his pregnant wife Arum at that time.Memories for memories continue to wander in his mind.

"Darling, how are you doing there? It's been more than twenty years you left me.But, why does it feel like just now.Why do you have the heart to leave me with our daughter.When I crave a happy life with you for ever.Building the beauty of the household."johan lirih

Because it was too late with his feelings, Johan was exhausted and finally his eyes began to shut slowly.

The next day, Arum woke up at seven o'clock in the morning.After finishing his bath he headed to the dinner table,there the food has been prepared by the aunt and seen her father sitting at the table eating with a cell phone in his hand.Johan raised his head when he heard footsteps towards the dining table.She saw her daughter who looks a little lethargic.

"Eat a lot, ten o'clock a designer and MUA will come make your makeup." Johan said.

"I mean dad?"asked Arum who did not understand the words of his father

"Just then you and your lover will get married.So get ready later." said Johan, then he put rice in his mouth.

"Is that really dad?"asked Arum with a smile

"Hem."

"Thank you dad." said Arum happily

Arum also eats with passion, but he forgets one thing.If he is married, then he must be ready to get out of his house.While Johan looks at Arum who is cool devouring his food.The face of Johan scoops, he is very unprepared.However, Johan looks at Arum who is coolly devouring his food,he has to be ready for all this.

Maybe this is God's destiny, and he can only live by the provisions that God has set.

Fandi and Faisal are getting ready to head to Johan.Yaa's house,Faisal has been told by Fandi.If Fandi will soon marry Arum there later.Dan Faisal asked permission for Sofia to be able to attend his friend's wedding.Sofia also allowed them.

"Kok I'm being so stubborn like this." said Fandi

"If you don't beat it, it's dead!"sahut Fandi

"That's not what I meant."so Fandi was a little upset

"Humans are all so clumsy, weird."

"As you are!!"

"What would your father-in-law ask for?"ask Faisal

"He said he had it all ready" replied Fandi

"But, what a joy! It was prepared by the future in-laws. Biasalah, the rich are so wkwkw." said Faisal

"You know how else, I have to give her a whim.If not, she'll cancel our marriage." said Fandi lethargic

"Prophey." said Faisal while embracing his friend's shoulder

"I miss my mom, if she's here, she'll be happy to see me get married."

"Send a prayer to my mother."

"certain."

At nine o'clock in the morning, the two young men went to the residence of Johan Mahendra.They arrived at a luxury housing and saw a security guard there.

Seeing Fandi and Faisal in front of the fence of Johan's house, the soldier stepped up and met the two young men."Mas Fandi huh?"ask her

"Yes sir."

"Please come in, master is waiting."

"Good sir."

Maybe that young man's friend. That's what Johan had in mind."Come in and sit here." Johan said

The two young men walked over and headed to the sofa in the living room.Not long after, the aunt came with a drink and a plate of cake.

"Please." said aunt

"Thank you bi." said Fandi

"Together."

After the departure of aunty, now only looks silence among the three of them.Johan was confused what to say.Because he is indeed typical of people who rarely talk.For him, too much talk it will only be nonsense.

"Eat, I have a little business. Soon, a designer will be coming to dress you up in bridal attire." Johan said and left them

"Okay Om." both boys were clumsy

*********

Arum is very beautiful with a white wedding kebaya.She continues to look at the mirror and see his face.She thought, she thought,if she is going to get married today.His heart is a little thumping and she feels impatient waiting for this beautiful moment.His smile has never faded since it was made up by MUA earlier.

"If only mother was still there, surely she was happy to see me who would marry this.And she would love the beauty that she bequeathed to me.Said father, I was like a duplicate mother.Every look at me,father must be remembered by mother.Yes, God, give the mother peace and a beautiful place in your paradise." said Arum

He's not conscious, though,if his father goes into his room and listens to his words.Johan's heart feels pain when he hears the words of his only child.The mother died after a few minutes of breastfeeding.And the girl had to be an orphan since infancy.

Not an easy thing for Johan as a single parent at that time.Many things he had to do, so that his daughter could grow up without any shortcomings.And now, the,this princess is getting married today.

Can Johan part away from this princess? Can the young man please his daughter and not make her Princess even a single scratch?

So many other questions were raging in his mind, he himself was confused.

"Dad." Call Arum after seeing the arrival of his father, he immediately approached his father and hugged him tightly.Johan reciprocated Arum's embrace was not less tight, maybe this was the last hug

Johan kissed Arum's head."Forgive me son, father always restricts your movement.This is not just me wanting to curb you, but because I love you too much.Dad can not let you fall into things that are not good.However,dad realized.If dad's daughter is not a child anymore, now the father's daughter has grown up." said Johan and took off his embrace

"My father.." said Arum, but his speech was not finished.His father cut by saying."After marriage, may you find happiness with the young man of your choice, and you may leave this house after that." Johan said and left Arum still dumbstruck staring at the departure of the father.

"How can I forget one thing.I can marry Mas Fandi, but I also have to leave this house and father alone." Arum muttered

She was eager to cry, but felt her tears unable to fall.

God, I hurt my feelings a lot.

*********

After the Dzuhur prayer, everyone gathered in the guest room.There is only Johan sitting next to the ruler and Fandi beside Arum. Then the two witnesses and aunt, Bastian and Faisal.Airum and Fandi wedding ceremony was only attended by the closest person and only did a deed without reception.

"Is it ready?"asked the ruler to Fandi and Arum, the two men nodded in unison

"Sir Johan, do you want to marry your own daughter or guardian to me?"ask Penghulu first

"I leave everything to pengpenulu sir." said Johan confidently

"Alright, we'll start by reading basmallah." said Penghulu and he sighed.Then said."I married and married brother Fandi Ibrahim bin Ibrahim with sister Arum Kamilah Binti Johan Mahendra with the dowry paid in cash."

After sighing her, Fandi said out loud."I accepted Arum Kamilah bint Johan Mahendra's marriage and marriage with the dowry paid in cash."

"How are the witnesses? LEGAL ?"

And the witnesses answered.

" LEGITIMATE "

"Alhamdulilahirabbil'alamin."

Then the ruler prayed and after that, Arum shook the hand of Fandi who has now become her husband.Then they exchanged rings, after which they took pictures for a while.

After the event was over, Arum packed up and assisted by aunt.

"Non, please don't go." said the sobbing aunt

"I can not bi, this is the decision of the father.I have made a mistake and now I have to bear it.As long as I am not there beside the father, please pay attention and take care of the father ya bi.I really love father, I love father,but this is fate.I will now follow wherever my husband lives.And I hope we can always connect by phone yaa bi." said Arum while sweeping his tears,fortunately, she doesn't wear makeup anymore.

"Auntie will take care of master, non. And aunt please, always happy with mas Fandi yaa.If non Arum want to tell a story with aunt, just contact aunt yaa non. Aunty will always be there for non Arum, because non Arum already aunty considered like her own child." said the old woman, heard the words aunty.Arum immediately hugged the aunt tightly,if they are near from childhood and Arum also thinks aunt is his mother.

After finishing packing, Arum and aunty came out while dragging Arum's suitcase.Disana Arum saw his father who was already standing in front of the house and Fandi was also waiting for him.

"Dad. Take care of your health as long as I'm not at my side." Arum said

"You take it easy, there's aunt and Bastian looking after me. Don't worry, focus on your new life." Johan said in a cold tone,but in his heart he wanted to cry, but he did not want to do that, he was a man.

After saying goodbye to Johan and the others, Arum left the house he lived in since childhood.And now he must go for eternity.

Will he be able to return to this house? His taste is impossible.
