Today is graduation day for Ayumi, after a few weeks ago facing national exams simultaneously.


All students are declared to pass one hundred percent. True happiness is certainly after what we try to get maximum results and satisfying.


Ayumi is the student who gets the highest grade. Graduated with perfect grades. The name of the school is also fragrant with the achievement of one of his students who has an above average level of intelligence.


With pride, the school gave a scholarship to Ayumi to be able to continue school for free at no cost.


Ayumi's hope of reaching her goal slowly opened wide. Ayumi is also proud of the results of her efforts and hard work to always be enterprising and diligent in learning, everything is not in vain. Where there is a will and intention, there is also the final result that awaits.


Then, how are Mother Andara and Brother Zura? They both moved out of Grandma Arsy's house a week ago. Mother Andara and her daughter Zura already have savings to open her own business and rent a place to open her business. They both collect money from the results of selling cakes made by Grandma Or and Ayumi either directly from home to home or also online. After the results of their savings are sufficient, they ask permission to live more independently and not depend on Grandma Arsy and Ayumi.


Bunda Andara opened a women's salon, while Kak Zura worked at the Manufacturing Company. They decided to move and find their own place to open a new business.


Then Afnan? Yes, Afnan has left for Egypt to complete his master's studies there. Before leaving to complete his studies, Afnan entrusted Ayumi to Grandma Arsy and both Afnan's parents. After the master program is completed, Afnan will immediately apply for Ayumi, even though Ayumi has not completed her medical studies.


And Kahfi? Just yesterday Kahfi was declared a graduate from high school. Kahfi intends to continue studying Management at the University of the Name in Yogyakarta City. Kahfi has not graduated as Hafidz Qur'an, at least Kahfi has tried and succeeded in graduation up to fifteen juz only.


Rara, Ayumi's best friend, goes to the Analyst's School of Health outside the city. After choosing to separate from Mother Andara, the lives of Rara and Pak Sukoco are increasingly less harmonious. Mr. Sukoco often returned home at night, and did not take care of his business properly, until the business affairs that were handed down from the big family of Mr. Sukoco were taken over by Mr. Sukoco's younger brother.


The journey of life is a definite destiny. The process of learning and life experiences can be enjoyed with gratitude to Allah SWT. The love and sorrow of the sweet bitters of life is the process of maturing us in attitude.


Every journey of one's life must be a test and a trial that tests our faith. All final results of affairs in this world have been determined by Allah SWT.


The soul, soul mate, and death of each person has their own destiny line. 'If something is destined to get away from you, it will never come to you.


However, if it is destined to be with you and for you, then you will not be able to run away from it.'


"Ayumi, tomorrow I go to solo," Rara said slowly to Ayumi.


Both are silent and silent, sitting on the edge of the school field that brings the two of them together to become friends. The meeting was short, just a few months since Ayumi's move to the school.


"You don't want to meet Mother Andara and Brother Zura, Ra?" ask Ayumi slowly so as not to offend Rara.


Rara shook her head slowly then looked at Ayumi softly.


"Why? Still hate?" ask Ayumi to Rara.


"Can be. I'm so sad, Ay. My father is now changing drastically until the family business is currently held by Om Broto," said Rara Lirih.


Her father is the pride of Rara. Her father's smile was Rara's happiness. Her father's wounds will be a whip for Rara.


"Don't hate someone too much Ra. Moreover, Mother Andara is her own birth mother. We'll regret it when we lose it, Ra. Like me?" ayumi advised Rara.


"I have to how Ay. Apologizing? It's wrong Mother, Ay," asked Rara to Ayumi.


"But I hate Mommy, Ay. I hate it because of Mommy, Daddy is changing as he is now" Rara said in tears.


Ayumi pity to see Rara who was falling like this. Ayumi hugged her best friend tightly, while rubbing Rara's back slowly to provide comfort there.


"Sometimes I'm afraid to go home, Ay," said Rara slowly.


Rara's head rested on Ayumi's shoulder.


"I'm taking you to Mother Andara's house, Ra? Apologize and beg your part, a mother's prayer mustajabah, Ra," said Ayumi softly.


"But Ay? I still can not accept Mother," said Rara slowly. His heart is still disappointed in the actions of Mother Andara.


"Don't let the devil stay in your heart Ra. Hate it's the devil, right?" ayumi said slowly.


Rara took off the hug from her best friend and looked at her best friend with a smile.


"You taught me so much about Ay's kindness. I know, I was wrong and I've been disobeying Mommy. I should have as a child should not have sided with one, I should have defended all of them from a different point of view" Rara said slowly.


"The right answer Ra. You must be able to sort out what is good and what is not good, and do not let the scales are not balanced" said Ayumi softly.


"Truly delivered yes, Ay," said Rara slowly.


"Yes, I'm taking Ra with me" Ayumi said slowly.


The graduation announcement that day was over. All students are happy in their own way. There are flashing cities with convoy motorcycles, some are doodling uniforms by giving signatures as mementos.


The school does not prohibit all students from having a celebration like what, as long as it does not disturb public order in the community.


Ayumi and Rara are ready to go home and according to the plan, they will both stop by Mother Andara's place.


The journey to the house of Mother Andara is not far, only about fifteen minutes instead of taking public transportation.


"Still far away, Ay," asked Rara slowly. His heart's getting tighter.


"That's front there is a female salon inscription, we go down there," Ayumi said.


The two of them had gotten off public transport and walked into the terrace of the house rented by Mother Andara. It's written open hanging on the door handle.


"Your mother who owns this lady's salon?" ask Rara slowly.


"Oh yes Ra. Progress yes, Mother Andara is a hardworking and independent woman," said Ayumi slowly praised Mother Andara.


After approaching the entrance, Ayumi knocked on the glass door and several times pressed on the bell that rang out loud.
