Towards the Destiny of Naura's Love

Chapter 14 Graduation

After shopping, Naura is escorted back to her boarding house by Zahra and Baim. Incidentally when they arrived at Naura boarding house, Tama also just arrived. They greeted each other for a while, then immediately left Naura with her husband.

"Shop anything?"

"Just this fruit and cake, mas." Naura answered while showing her plastic contents.

"Now, there's very little."

Naura squeezes the strong tip of her hijab. He was emotionally upset this time but kept trying to hold him back.

A little bit? Yes it is only a little, because my money is only enough to buy this.

Naura began to dialogue herself with her thoughts. Mending I bought a little, rather than you! Giving me money never. You bought me expensive clothes. But, I don't need those expensive clothes, because they don't fill my stomach.

Husband is not responsible. Which is your responsibility that should support me. I feel so guilty about Dad. I'm married but my shopping money and pocket money are still given by my father.

Naura's heart was deeply wounded. She really did not think out in the way of her husband who did not understand his responsibility as a husband to his wife, when in the eyes of the people in Tama village was a near-perfect person.

Tama was already in the bathroom while Naura was still continuing to dialogue herself with her thoughts. Then, suddenly there was the sound of a car stopping right in front of his boarding house. Naura stopped her dialogue, she immediately stepped out and it turned out to be true that her family from the village had come.

"Mother!"

Naura immediately hugged her mother, then changed to embrace Mama and her sister-in-law Tania.

"Dad."

Naura shakes up her father. Only then, greeted his brother-in-law and also the neighbors who paid his mother-in-law to be their driver.

"Which name?" Rudi asked because he had not seen his daughter-in-law.

"Mas Tama's taking a shower, dad. Mau salat zuhur."

Naura did not take them to her boarding house, but drove them to the house she had been booked into. And the rent of the house will be paid for by his father, not his husband or mother-in-law.

"Ma, mother, mbak, you guys just take a break. I'm gonna call Tama's mas."

"Yes, go. Call Tama, tell her mom's here!"

Naura nodded with a smile. Then he rushed to his boarding room to meet Tama. By the time Naura arrived at her room, Tama had finished praying and was well dressed. She smiled very sweetly at Naura.

"Mama's coming?"

"Already, mas. Go see them first, I'll be back in a minute. Pray first."

"Yes, yes first. Adek must be fast."

Tama said that in a very soft voice. And that made Naura re-collapse. Again I was lulled in the gentle voice of a husband who did not love me.

Then Naura immediately prayed and after the zuhur prayer she followed to the contract. Upon arrival, Naura and her mother prepared food for their lunch. The food was bought by Naura using her money. This again made Naura feel guilty for her parents.

"I'm sorry, mother, father." Say it in the heart.

While Yani and Rudi feel understood. Because it was until graduation was completed, for them Naura was still their responsibility.

"Same Ningsih can't get permission, mother?"

"Yes. But they sent a letter to their beloved mother."

Yani takes out a letter from inside her gamis pocket, she gives the letter to Naura. Naura happily read the letter. But, after a few seconds later, her tears trickled down. He felt sad and moved to read the congratulations and prayers of his two sisters.

"Mama misses you too."

Mother gently patted Naura's back to lift her. And after Naura felt better, then they delivered food in front of the family chatting coolly in front.

Naura is so happy. On the day of her graduation, she was accompanied by her parents and her husband. Naura looks beautiful wearing graduation clothes and with her natural-looking facial makeup. Tama even felt her heart tremble at how beautiful his wife was today.

He admitted that Naura can sometimes make his heart beat fast. But, somehow his heart was too heavy to say that he had fallen on Naura.

The graduation ceremony was very solemn and full of happiness. Naura exits the graduation hall with her college friends. They also make their own celebration by throwing toga together. Zahra did the same with her college friends.

After the event was over, Naura and Zahra took a picture together. Then they also took four pictures with their husbands. Then it was time for the two friends to separate.

"Na, I'm gonna miss you so much."

"I'm also Ra."

Both of them hugged while crying. Then they meet their families to continue the photo event together.

After being satisfied with taking photos. They finally brought the family rombogan for the road to the zoo. They are also invited to walk to the mall, to see various things there.

Naura was still with her makeup and graduation attire. Actually he wanted to change, but there was no chance, because his family invited him to come here to enjoy the beauty of the city of Bandung.

It turned out that it was not only Naura herself who was still wearing her graduation clothes. There is also a friend of his majors who walked the street in the mall with his family still wearing his graduation clothes.

"Sir Arjune!"

Tama's voice calling out that name made Naura turn her head in the same direction as Tama.

"Doctor Tama."

Arjune stepped closer to Tama. This time Arjune is with his secretary and also a client, not his fiancee like the previous meeting.

Tama and Naura's family stopped and glanced at the man whom Mr. Arjune had called by Tama.

"Oh yeah, this is my mama, Mr. Arjune."

Tama took his mother's hand to be introduced to Arjune. And Arjune greeted politely, then he glanced at Naura's collar standing beside Tama.

"Tama's doctor's wife, graduation today?" Arjune guessed because he saw Naura still wearing her graduation suit.

"Yes, sir." Answer Tama proudly.

Arjune whispered to the man standing behind him. That man is his secretary.

"Good sir." The man nodded, then he took Arjune's client walking past the Tama and Naura families.

"Well, congratulations to Naura on the passing of a college degree." Arjune congratulated Naura while smiling happily.

"Thank you, Mr. Arjune."

Naura said that while continuing to lower her gaze and yet she saw clearly the face of the man called Arjune sir.

"Mother, father, must be Naura's parents?" Guess Arjune while looking at Yani and Rudi who had been just silently holding their happy smiles.

"Ah yes, Mr. Arjune. This is my mother-in-law's father."

Tama answered quickly without giving Yani and Rudi a chance to answer on their own.

"Congratulations sir, for your daughter's graduation."

Tama extended her hand to Rudi. Despite his doubts, Rudi welcomes Arjune's sincere hand to him.

"Thank you Arjune."

Seeing the interaction of her father-in-law and Arjune, somehow Tama felt a little upset. Perhaps, because Arjune did not greet his mother, but instead wanted to shake hands with his father-in-law.
