The Poor Girl's Match

part 156 (MARLINA)

The next day, as usual after performing the morning prayers, Marlina rushed to help her mother prepare the nasi uduk for sale to the market.

Today they do not carry too much nasi uduk, because the nasi uduk they sold yesterday is still quite a lot.

"Hopefully today we can do all the rice we have" said Marlina

"Amin, let's just pray, son" said Ms. Hari

"then I take a shower, ma'am, I put the rice in the basket" said Marlina

"Yes lin, all mothers also want to settle this first, after that we go to the market" said Ms Harti, while collecting dirty containers to wash.

After all was done, Marlina and Ms. Harti rushed off to the market. The clock still shows at 6 am. Marlina and her mother walked towards the market which was about 1 km from home.

Arriving at the market, Marlina immediately took out the package of all the rice packets sitting out of the basket, then tidied it on the wooden table that Harti had prepared.

This morning they only brought 30 packs of rice and hoped they would all sell out.

The clock shows at 9 WIB.

But their rice is not yet exhausted, there are still 15 packs left.

"The more days, our trade is getting quieter, ma'am" said Marlina with a sad look.

"Yes Lin, maybe our fortune is this way, still be grateful for whatever it is" said Ms Harti trying to comfort her son.

"yes ma'am" said Marlina.

"Yes we have just gone home, the day is also getting noon, after all the market has begun to quiet" invited Ms Harti.

"yes ma'am, let me just sort it all out" said Marlina, then rushed to put the remaining rice in the basket.

 

ON CAMPUS

 

"Mon, Lina really doesn't do it anymore?" ask Ria.

"It seems like a real Ri, after all yesterday we have come to his house and horrified ourselves from Lina if he stops college" Mona explained.

"Yes I know, but why suddenly Lina quit college without any clear reason" said Ria.

"Gue himself also does not understand, confused as well, there must be a reason that he hides from us" guessed Mona.

"Finally I'll see you too!" amar's voice suddenly came toward them with hasty breathing.

"Sister Amar?? why kak kok to ngos-ngosan like that, abis race run yes?" ledek Ria's

"Yes, why brother?" ask Mona curiously.

"Did you see Marlina?" ask Amar.

"Kak Amar forgot, Marlina has stopped college, sister has also forgotten what if yesterday we were both samperin Marlina to her house and horrified the answer from her own" explained Mona.

"So Marlina was serious with her words yesterday?" ask Amar who feels he does not believe.

"But now he's not leaving, so be serious" replied Ria.

"Sir, Amar knows why Marlina quit college?" ask Mona.

"Wait a minute, instead of yesterday Marlina came out of the administration room, you also see. continues Marlina tomorrow she immediately said quit college. You think it's something to do with that?" mona asked who remembered the moment Marlina came out of the administration room.

"Oh my God, where there is a connection the administration room just as Marlina quit college, there is-only you" replied Ria, when her family relapsed.

"Whether I know now, I unplug first, thanks" said Amar, then hurried away from Mona and Ria.

"Where are you going. It's getting weirder brother Amar" exclaimed Ria.

"The Elo is strange, the elo is even more useful" Mona said.

"What the heck elo Mon, if I say there is no point in what you mean" grumbled Ria.

"You're looking for my drink, thirsty" said Mona, then hurried away regardless of the sulking Ria.

"Mona, wait, I'm not done talking.nah bangebelin bangett you Mon!" ria shouted, then chased after his best friend.

Without a second thought Amar headed straight for the administration room.

After knocking on the door and being invited in, without further ado Amar immediately asked about Marlina quitting college.

"Sorry ma'am, my arrival here would like to ask about Marlina who dropped out of college all of a sudden has anything to do with the administrative matter?" ask Amar seriously.

"Oh about Marlina, yes, yesterday we were very forced to remove her from this campus because it was 2 not Marlina has not paid her college payment" explained Ms. Sukma.

"So because Marlina hasn't paid off her college tuition she was expelled from this campus" Amar said.

"Yes Amar, the mother here only carries out the duties, and it has all become the rules of this campus, the mother can not do anything, sorry" explained Ms. Sukma.

"Yes ma'am, I get it. Then excuse me, thank you for the information" said Amar, then got out of his seat and out of the room.

Raut Amar's face looks disappointed, it turns out Marlina quit college not because of her own wishes but was expelled from campus.

Amar did not expect, why Marlina could keep things like this from him and from his friends. Amar's heart immediately felt unsettled. Without thinking long Amar intends to go to Marlina's house and wants to hear Marlina's explanation directly.

From a distance Veronika notices Amar who looks rushed to her car.

"That's why Amar kayak hurriedly wanted to leave, instead of today he has class" Veronika's inner.

"Woii, ver, bengong aja, concerned about who the hell" exclaimed Sarah who suddenly came.

"Eh look at Amar in such a hurry to leave, What's the matter Sar?" ask Veronika curious.

"Well, I know, but I just saw Amar coming out of the administration room" Sarah replied.

"Haa, what you said, the administration room.wapain him from the administration room, there is no way if he has a problem about tuition fees" said Veronika who is increasingly curious.

"It is impossible, Amar kn son of the rich, for seven offspring will also not be abis money even though it is not work.maybe there is another business" explained Sarah.

"eh Ver eat yukk, laper nih" added Sarah.

"Eat it alone, I have to find out about all this" exclaimed Veronika, then left Sarah.
