THE GRUDGE THAT BURNS

THE GRUDGE THAT BURNS
94.



"Dad, I got a message from Fandi's in-laws.If we both have to go to her house now, because there's something important to talk about." Jefri said as they started breakfast


Ibrahim scrunched his forehead, then he said."If there's anything important, why isn't he here?"ask Ibrahim


"I don't know either, Dad. It might really matter."


"Well, after breakfast we'll be there."


"Yes dad."


Then they had breakfast together at the dinner table, not only were they both there.There was Jefri's wife and daughter.Done breakfast, they both immediately got into the car and headed to Johan Mahendra's house.


___


About a drink of tea, finally the car driven by Jefri arrived at the house of Johan.They both saw Argana sitting dreamy outside, Argana waiting for their arrival.But it was strange for the two of them, why Argana did not feel their arrival.


Without a second thought, the father and son approached his grandson and nephew.


"Assalamualaikum." said Jefri


Argana flinched from her daydream and turned towards the voice."Waalaikumsalam, uncle's grandfather, you have come." said Argana and approached his grandfather and uncle, then he shook their hands.Then he invited his grandfather and uncle into the house.


___


Argana and his grandfather and uncle approached his grandfather who was sitting on a spacious sofa.There was also an ustadz Hamzah and his son named Hamid.


Ibrahim and Jefri greeted ustadz Hamzah and Hamid and Johan, and he sat on the couch.


Johan cleared his throat and said."Please have a drink." Johan said


"Thank you." said Jefri, then he took a sip of a drink


"Did you tell us to come here, Johan?"ask Ibrahim


"So, it turns out that the perpetrator who caused the death of our son was the father of Argana's girlfriend." said Johan , while Argana who was next to him just looked down.He was confused, how this could happen and what the next step.


"I already know." Ibrahim said casually


Johan and Argana looked at the middle-aged man before them, confused as to where Ibrahim knew it.


"When is grandpa?"ask Argana


"I forgot when, the point is I got this information is not easy.The person knows all the events there, because he was also involved in the incident the night of your birth Argana."sahut Jefri explained to the brand.


"Oh Allah." muttered Argana while rubbing her face


Everyone must understand Argana's obstinacy, he must be disappointed.How can he love the daughter of the mastermind of the murder of his parents.He does not want to believe, but the facts tell the truth.


"Then, what should we do. Jin qarin Arum demands justice." - Johan lirih


"Jin Qarin Arum?"abraham and Jefri said


"Last night we were visited by jin qarin Arum, he wanted justice for himself" said Ustadz Hamzah


"In that case, we must go to the village of Banyan and arrest the man" Ibrahim said with a passionate tone


"Argana, how are you feeling? Do you still love that girl?"jefri asked his nephew


"How could not uncle, of course I love him so much.Even I just wait for the blessing of his father, so that we can get married soon.But now..what should I do? But, isn't Yasmin's father just the mastermind, not the killer, is he?"ask Argana to the others


"Fixed, because he's your father and mother became his victims.If only Bi Inah did not take care of you.Maybe you went along with your parents for a long time." Johan said while staring intently at Argana.


"Arga, because of the father of the girl you love, my twin brothers have to bear the consequences and leave forever from this mortal world" Jefri said,he is upset because Argana's words are like defending Yasmin's father


"Sorry uncle, but grandfather. Not my intention to defend his father Yasmin.But what about the actions that grandfather did.Grandpa did a heinous act with revenge to the villagers banyan.Bukah it is already worth.Again, the,what are you going to do with Yasmin's father. Revenge, put him in jail or kill him?"argana stared back in both her grandfather and uncle


Johan gasped at the words of his grandson, but his grandson said the truth.If he had avenged his own revenge to the dead banyan villagers.And he realized, if he was very guilty in this case.


Ibrahim looked at Argana who bore a resemblance to Jefri.Then he said."Of course I'll make a calculation to the man.Let's say whatever, he's the reason your father and mother are gone."


"Of course I will feel calm" Ibrahim said casually


Argana shook her head quickly."Grandfather is wrong, no one who takes revenge gets satisfaction.There are only regrets later on, let God avenge their vile deeds first." said Argana subtly, saying,he didn't want his grandfather and uncle to be plunged into anger and resentment, just like his mother's father did.


"What Argana says is true, indeed Allah hates the nature of vengeance" said Ustadz Hamzah


"I beg of you, forget all that happened.I've let go of father and mother." said Argana with a sad look


"No Arga, I can't let him live quietly." said Jefri kekeuh with his stance, then he stood up and passed away from there.Sedang Argana can only silently staring at the departure of his uncle.


"Argana, I know if you're nice to anyone.But you should know, I won't tolerate what the girl's father did.I'll demand justice for my son."abraham said after that he passed away leaving Argana and the others


___


Now lives Argana, Johan, Ustadz Hamzah and Hamid.Since Argana discuss about revenge committed by him, Johan did not dare to speak again.He knows he was wrong, he was wrong,but he was also confused how to follow up on the incident?


And Argana, her favorite granddaughter, has to be involved in a romance with the son of the mastermind of all those events.


Ohh lord...Then now, Jefri and Ibrahim will take revenge right? If he is, then he can't get in his way because he was in their position too,twenty years he took revenge on the villagers banyan.She was always satisfied when one by one the men in the village were killed.But what he got after that, nothing!


"Grandfather, what should I do? What about my relationship with Yasmin? Should I end it?"ask Argana to Johan


"Arga, for now I beg you.I can't accept that girl to be my daughter-in-law's granddaughter.Sorry...!!"johan


Argana thought, Should she just let go of the girl?


"Sorry Johan, not the intention of grandfather to want to hurt your heart.Even though grandfather knows, if his father did it all.But still he is the son of the man who was the cause of your father and mother's death." Johan said


"I'll think about it grandpa." said Argana and walked to her room


Dilemmas. Argana's dilemma is whether she can forget Yasmin as her grandfather wishes. And he was still very surprised by the actual fact, if his father Yasmin was the one who slandered his parents.So the villagers wanted to get angry and do the deed.


___


After exiting Johan's house, Jefri gets into the car and sits behind the wheel.Jefri picks up his phone and calls the man who gives him information about Arum and Fandi's death.


"Hallo, can you help me be honest with the villagers there?"


"It may be, but I am afraid of Bimasena.Two of my friends have died because of him, because we want to report our actions and him who has slandered Fandi and Arum."


"You take it easy, I'll protect you. How's it?"


"really?"


"Yes, and I'll pay you too. Take it easy, I just want to make him confess his actions to all the people there."


"Okay, I'll help you sir."


"Thank you."


"Together."


Then the call ended, Jefri smiled cynically."I will avenge all the deeds of the man, and I will not let him live in peace.And I will also make sure, if Argana will not be able to unite with the son of the man.I do not want, I do not want to, my niece is married to the son of a murderous family."


Finished he said like that, Ibrahim got into the car."Father."


"Jefri, you know not what you have to do" Ibrahim said


"Of course dad, I won't let that guy live quietly." Jefri said with a smirk on his lips


"Good." said Ibrahim smiling grin like Jefri, then Jefri drove his car at medium speed.
