The Left Behind Story

13 ~ Arguing

The goddess squeezed her fingers trying to calm down. He took a bus between cities after completing the TOEFL test this morning. The goddess thought of eating first after completing a test that severely drained her brain but as soon as she saw the missed call from her mother, she, the girl immediately panicked to think if something bad happened to her father but when she called back it turns out he actually got a tantrum from the father.

“Go home now!!” Dewi took a thousand steps in a state of uneasiness to leave the campus.

Two hours on the bus, Rani sends a message to him.The girl recounts the incident when she and Eva went to the house of the Goddess. Upon hearing Rani's story, Dewi immediately concludes that all this is Eva's plan to destroy her relationship with her father.

“Licik once he!” the Inner Goddess while leaning her body on the seat. Today is so tiring, only Fiqi, Ayi, Rani and Ricki continue to give encouragement even though only through messages. Bang Reja also encouraged him. While Eva, the fake friend did not know about the departure of the Goddess out of town. But apparently, Eva was so ingenious that she could tell about the departure of the Goddess.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the Goddess arrived at her house. He thought that his parents had fallen asleep and were still awake or rather awake waiting for his arrival.

“Well, speak tomorrow morning! Goddess must also be tired.” Mother tried to advise but dear father of the famous Goddess hard.

“What do you expect from this child? He has dared to leave the house without our permission and even worse he lied to us. What does he think we are? He doesn't appreciate us at all, Buk.”

The goddess chose silence while looking down. His soul was very tired today. His strength was below average so to just defend himself, he was no longer able.

“Already, Sir. Tomorrow we'll talk fine. Not good to hear about the night-night loud.” The mother had to pull the husband's hand to enter the room.

“Sleep! Tomorrow we talk again.” Mother's voice is soft.

The goddess shed tears, she knew this would not be easy. To blame Eva, he needed a lot of evidence and energy let alone make friends. If he were to dispute this with Eva, his fake friend would certainly twist the word until the Goddess would be guilty because he told Eva about her departure out of town.

Tired of body soul makes the Goddess sleep soundly until the soft hands of the mother does not feel on her body.

“Is he not awake yet? Does he think that dying will be asked a lesson on campus?” the loud voice of the father made the eyes of the Goddess instantly open.

After the dawn prayer, the Goddess came out to the kitchen. He wanted to help his mother but it was all done. They had breakfast in silence without anyone making a sound. The Goddess' tongue seemed bitter to taste food when she saw the father's angry face.

“Sit!” tell the father after they finish their meal. The goddess who at that time served coffee to the living room for her father could only obey.

“This is the real trial.” Inner Goddess.

Father's eyes stared at the Goddess sharp as the tip of a sword ready to cut through her body.

“Forcible Goddess, Well, Buk.” There are no other words right now.

“Forget the problem of S2 because next month you will be engaged to the son of a distant relative of Father!”

Degs…

The face that had been lowered was now raised to look at the father. Dewi had already predicted this would happen but she had no idea there would be a scholarship scene because in the past she had not gotten that chance.

“Daddy received no rebuttal!” Goddess smiles, “Good, Dad! But allow the Goddess to complete all procedures so that the lecturers do not blame the Goddess. The campus has prepared everything if Dewi does not follow, they will be angry and they will call Father and Mother for clarification.”

“Alright!” Dewi wants to jump but not. He did not want his parents to suspect.

By noon, Dewi went to the campus as usual. Today there are several courses that he must take including advanced semester courses.

Ting…

The message from the assistant head of the study made that Dewi's move should continue into academia before entering the classroom.

“Cangratulation! You graduated with a score of 490. With this score, you can choose to study abroad. There are many scholarships available from abroad today. It is up to you to take where, later the campus will tell you the list of countries you can choose.” Said the Head of Prodi.

The goddess smiled, after saying her thanks. He returned to class with a smile as if he had just met a heart idol.

The smile immediately changed with falsehood when he saw Eva was already sitting in class with other friends. The goddess did not tell them about her TOEFL score. He wants to finish his business first with Eva. His fake friend had made him have to solve this problem as soon as possible. Only two weeks left for her to get more evidence of Eva and Fadil's relationship.

“Have to go back pretending like this.” His mind then sighed.

“Why? Any problem? I'm sorry, because of me, your parents know about your departure out of town. Why don't you tell us yourself that you lied to your parents about the test. If you know that, I didn't have to go into your house that day. Honestly, I feel guilty for you. Again, sorry!” said Eva at length.

“Already! I also apologize for not informing you about my departure to the state campus.” Say Dewi of course with a made-up face.

The relationship between the two returned as usual. Days change day, on the sidelines of his busy pursuit of courses. The goddess still took the time to look for evidence of the closeness of Eva and Fadil. Every chance, Dewi always tried to get Eva's phone just to photograph the contents of the message of the fake friend with her future husband.

“Yeah, I wonder why Bang Fadil would want to be betrothed to me? We have never met either.” Ask the Goddess after dinner.

“At the moment he is abroad. You take it easy, the day before the application event, he will arrive here. He already knows you.”

Dewi rose from her sleep, “Bang Fadil know Dewi?” I laughed at the Goddess' surprise.

“Iya. Back when you were Junior High, he met you at your cousin's party.”

“Only that? Didn't Uncle and Bibik show my picture to Bang Fadil? You mean my photo now?” ask the Goddess again.

“Already! Fadil knows you're beautiful because his parents' taste is the same as your aunt's. You know for yourself that your aunt likes you so much because you are beautiful.”

“What does this mean that Bang Fadil has never seen my current photo?” The goddess wondered in her heart then a grin appeared behind her smile.

“See you at Bang Fadil's application event!”
