Athena was at the boutique with her mommy. Alda accompanied his son to measure the kebaya that his son would wear at graduation later. The whole family has given their own size, the rest of Athens which was still in the country G.


"Kok The different colors themselves?" ask Athena.


"That's special" Alda replied.


"How are you going? The name The called twice is that it?" ask Athena.


"Well, yeah. Not at the same time." Alda stroked his daughter's hair.


"Udah big son mommy. Sometimes mommy does not want The big fast like gini, want to be small continue"


"If small continue later mommy will also be bothered to continue to keep Athena" Athena hugged her mommy.


"It's okay. Keep The never complicated. The important thing in the food is a henna" Alda's story.


"What is mom?"


Alda nodded.


"Sometimes whine if you come with Daddy"


Athena chuckles.


"The little time The nearby same mommy or the same Daddy?"


"Same, draw that. But The more spoiled to Daddy, if to mommy is rare, because there is also Nevan at that time. His sister's a kid, so the effect is on Daddy"


"Daddy Renal is the best father in this world" Athena said.


"Not mommy?" ask Alda.


Athena kisses Alda's cheek.


"of courses. Without mommy, The is nothing" replied Athena quickly.


"Thank you, son. Already willing to accept all the shortcomings of mommy, has become the most reliable mommy child. Athena unfortunately mommy"


The two generations embraced each other.


✨✨✨


"Nevan hasn't come home yet?" ask Renal.


"Yet, dad" replied Athena. As usual, he would grab his briefcase and take it to Daddy's office.


"The big time is still the same habit." Alda shook his head when he saw Athena's treatment of his Daddy.


"Gak kebayang if already married, Daddy would miss to be welcomed kayak gini" Renal confided to his wife.


"Have you married your son so soon?" ask Alda.


Renal nodded quickly.


"Wait another 2-3 years, let Ayra grow up first, so as not to feel really lost" replied Renal.


"Ayra asked for Junior High School in the city of C" Alda reminded.


"Yes, go with her sister there. We're gonna be lonely old men"


"Let's dad his son want how. The important thing is that they remember the house"


Renal nodded at the wife's words.


"Capek is like that" Renal said as he watched Nevan enter the living room.


Athena came from the direction of the kitchen while carrying a tray.


"Still working while you help Daddy?" ask Renal.


"Sure, dad" Nevan replied quickly after successfully sipping the mineral water that Athena brought.

Athena looks beautiful with a maroon-red kebaya dress and batik skirt with mocca-colored base material. While Alda, Ivana, Aina and Ayra also look no less beautiful with black danger, also the same skirt with Athena wear. The men look handsome with the material pants are black and batiknya which is basically black.


"Kayak want a proposal event just use uniformity" murmured Arion.


"If yah's application is even more crowded" Lathief chimed in.


"Teach Oma excited gini, her first granddaughter will graduate. As good grandchildren we should be happy with a happy heart" Nevan said.


"A hundred for Oma's granddaughter" Aina stroked Nevan's hair.


"Ayra is really cute, use kebaya look more beautiful aja" Ivana pinched both cheeks Ayra.


"Thank you, Mama" said Ayra.


"Let go now. The said split the car well?" ask Mika.


"Yes, pa" replied Athena.


"Okay, see you" Alda kissed his daughter's forehead.


The whole family other than Athena boarded the black limousine which looked very luxurious. Seeing her family leaving, Athena entered her car which was sopiri directly by Min.


Arriving at the campus, then Athena used her toga and entered the campus hall. He's looking for where the law school ranks. While in front of the main stage, there were two round tables filled by the Arunika family. Their existence became the center of attention of the people who were there, but unfortunately they could not see clearly the beautiful and handsome face of the ruler.


After receiving a map and graduation tube from the law faculty, Athens quickly moved to the economics faculty. He sat next to Raga.


"You look so beautiful" said Raga.


"Thank you, Mr. Perdanak"


Raga chuckled at Athena's thanks.


"Before today's inaugural event is completed, let us both hear a two-word from the best graduates of Arunika University class 10. This best graduate was achieved by a student from the law faculty who was also a student of economics faculty, time and place we submitted to Ananda Athena MA" said the protocol.


Athena has tubes and also Raga's graduation map. True, he had known this 24 hours before the event was held.


Athena stood on the podium, where the rector had made his speech. From the screen that stretched so large, everyone within the hall could clearly see the face of an Athena. A beautiful figure and also very accomplished can not be separated from everyone's first impression.


Athena smiled first before starting to speak.


"Good day and good luck to all of us. Greetings to the rector and deans, as well as the souls who have participated in this event. My name is Athena M. A, students from law faculty and economics faculty. We meet with different backgrounds, different mindsets. But it is from that difference that we learn to understand and appreciate each other. Being a student of the University of Arunika gives a beautiful moment, here we get an amazing experience, we learn about the meaning of a struggle, unyielding, hard work, sacrifice and consequences. There is no achievement without struggle, no result without process, what we get is a reflection of our struggle so far. I am standing on this podium of course it is nothing if there are no parents and family who support me and stand behind me. I gave this award to Renaldi Maheswari and Renalda Arunika's mother who had accompanied me to taste the beautiful world, who had accompanied me every step of the way, which has helped me stand up after a fall and keep embracing me so as not to get limped."


Everyone was of course shocked at the best graduation speech today, including Lathief who even wiped his tears, finally Athena dared to show the world who she was.


"Before I truly leave this podium, let me wish you a happy birthday to a man whose services I will never be able to repay, a man who is handsome, decisive and of course noble-hearted. Mr Lathief Arunika, with all due respect may I ask you to stand with me here?"


Alda, Ivana and Aina had been crying so hard since. Lathief took the stage on the papah by Nevan, until he managed to stand beside Athena.


Athena put her arms around the shoulder of her already not as strong as before.


"This is my opa, today is his birthday. For 20 years of my life, I never gave him anything. So far, this is all I can give, taking him to stand by me as the best graduate of the year." Athena awkwardly kissed the opa's cheek.


"One more time, thank you. Healthy and prosperous greetings to all of us" said Athena.


Everyone in the hall clapped their hands, let alone seeing the scene when Athena kissed the opa's cheek. The Rector even kissed the back of Lathief's hand before the owner of the university returned to his desk.
