The Neglected Pearl

Part 105 Ascending office

That night, when all the families gathered, there Mang Ojo told everyone including Defi's parents, why they had a simple wedding.

Everyone listened well then, not a single sound was spoken from all of them.

“I know, you must be surprised, why did you hold a simple Zaki wedding?”

All eyes looked at each other, but no one spoke a word, because at that time they really did not know why the wedding was held simply.

You deliberately carry it out simply, because you know, behind the happiness that we will do, there is the cry of a mother's heart, whose happiness has been taken away.

Hearing the word Mang Ojo, then they all understand, why the wedding was held simply.

Marlina who knew nothing, tried to speak up, and asked Mang Ojo, about whose happiness had been taken away.

“If I may know, who is the person whose happiness has been taken away?”

“That he, Mr. Ahong and Bu Leni, who one year ago they lost their beloved daughter.”

All seemed silent, only Bu Leni cried, reminiscing about the story, but her heart had calmed down, because Mang Ojo and his family had received it with open arms.

Marlina who already knows the reason, why her daughter's wedding was held simply, did not want to feel back to Padang.

However, it cannot be changed again because Marlina has bought a plane ticket to return home.

“So can't be delayed huh son?” marlina asked Defi while she was in her room.

“Nggak Bun, it's too late, yesterday like a mother so insistent to go home, why can now change?”

“That's because Mommy doesn't know the real problem, baby,” replied Marlina with a half-wishing face to her daughter.

“No way Mother, anyways I've told you, if Daddy and Mommy will go home tomorrow morning.”

“Ya already, if you can not change your flight schedule, well, tomorrow morning Mother will return to Padang.”

As Marlina requested, the next day they both immediately went to the airport, in the middle of the road Marlina spoke to Zaki, if she was not satisfied to see the city of Jakarta.

“Other times, if Mommy comes here, then we will both take Mommy and Dad around the city of Jakarta.”

“No need,” replied Marlina ketus.

“Why?”

“No need, next time we are not necessarily here again kok.”

Hearing Marlina's words, Zaki immediately stopped his car by using disc brakes, so the car stopped suddenly.

Defi, who was sitting on the front bench, was surprised, but he could not comment, Marlina was always upset, her words were always wrong, making others offended and hurt.

“Come Bang, no need to be taken heart, my Mother always is,” said Defi.

But since that incident, Zaki's heart felt something else, Mother Defi can make her household one day become cracked.

After returning from the airport, Zaki calls Defi to speak from heart to heart, because only in such a way can Zaki enter into Defi's heart, so that he can advise his mother.

“Good Bang, I understand what that brother means, later I will talk to Mommy, so that he can change his attitude.

After a few months of marriage, Zaki did not immediately move house, because his father did forbid them to move house.

According to Mang Ojo, Zaki is very much needed, in his old age, because in his advanced age, the disease often attacks the health of both of them.

If Zaki and Defi are not at home, who will determine himself later if the disease comes to attack him at any time.

When the state of Mang Ojo's house seemed calm and safe, her youngest daughter also experienced peace of mind, at the Faculty where she continued her studies, Nurul got a bachelor's degree, her success made Randi happy.

To prove his success, Nurul tried to apply for a job at Telkom company, part of the network. Intelligence in Nurul got the best predicate in the company.

Even the more Nurul's performance days are increasing, showing good things. That makes his position get special attention in the company where he works.

“What's up?”

“No idea, come alone there.”

“Alright, thanks.”

“Tok, tok, tok!”

Hearing the door knocked from the outside, the Director immediately invited Nurul to come inside.

“Assalamua’laikum, Father called me?”

ask Nurul to the Director of the company.

“True, you are named Nurul is not?”

“Iya, my name is Nurul.”

“Please sit.”

“Good, thank you,” replied Nurul while sitting in front of the Director.

“Bapak saw Ginerjamu so far, showed quite satisfactory results, for that we agreed to raise your position to be a field supervisor.”

“Oh, thank you, with this position, sir. hopefully with this new position, I can work even better.

Nurul was very happy to get a position as a supervisor, because in that section Nurul was only in charge of supervising and monitoring the workers in their respective positions.

“What is your job in nak company?” asked Mang Ojo, while they were watching in the living room.

“Alhamdulillah, everything is going smoothly Sir, at this time I have been appointed as a supervisor, so my work is a little light than the previous one.”

“That's a trust, take care of that trust as well as possible, because it's not easy in such a big company you quickly rise to the rank of supervisor.”

“Truely sir, my same friend works, until now he is still in the same position, even though he has worked almost seven years.”

Because of the increase in office, Nurul reported the news to Randi, Randi was very happy to hear it, the day after the news was received, he arrived in Jakarta.

To inaugurate Nurul's promotion, Randi invited Nurul to go on a tour to the south coast, which he said the waves of the south coast were very powerful, Nurul agreed with Randi's wishes.

But when they asked Mang Ojo for permission, Nurul did not get permission at all, Nurul's heart felt sad, because his desire was not fulfilled by his parents.

“We do not nginap kok Pak,” said Randi to Mang Ojo.

“Nginap or not, for the Father is the same.”

“What is it that makes you worry about us?”

“Many,” replied Mang Ojo briefly.

“Come on Sir, just this once!”

“Once you say no, still no, do not ask again,” said Mang Ojo once again as he left Randi and Nurul alone.”

“Your father is outrageous Nurul,” said Randi while standing on the pole of the magnificent house.

“Actually my father did not go too far, he said it right.”

“What do you mean?”
