CONSEQUENCES
New Residence

After arriving at one of the rooms of the mosque, Jhana was sitting on a small bed, the bed was only one and small, but on it there was a blanket, pillow, and a small bed, the bolster and bed sheet also make anyone feel at home for a long time on it.

"There's only this bed in this room, but in my room and Yazid there's a dispenser and gallons, a television, a fan and other stuff. Our bed is a bit bigger than this. We used to eat at Ustad Alman's house, he told us to be marbots here, and all our interests were met by him, but Yazid continued to work for some of the things we needed," obviously Arini.

"Thank you for your hospitality, call me Jhana just so we can get along, and let me just call you Arini, and let's use a slightly informal language" Jhana said.

"Oh yeah, it doesn't matter, I'm just happy if you want it to."

Jhana smile.

"You're a real person here?" ask Jhana.

"Yes, I was born here but grew up in Lombok, I met Yazid in Lombok and after getting married, we moved to my hometown" Arini replied.

"Jhana, Mr. Ustad Alman will ask you a few things before actually accepting you here, one of which I must know who you are. Want to tell me about yourself?" connect Arini.

"Of course, you're a good person, I think you're the one who's fit to accept my story. Here, sit down," said Jhana.

After stretching the prayer rug, Yazid walked towards the terrace of the mosque and swept it, not long after he finished sweeping the terrace of the mosque, a middle-aged man came.

"Assalamualaikum," said the man.

"Vaalaikumsalam. Mr. Ustad came very quickly today," greeted Yazid.

"Yes, I would like to make an adhan once in a while, I have not done an adhan for a long time. Everything all right?" ask Mr. Ustad Alman.

"Already Mr. Ustad, please adzan."

"Good." Mr. Ustad Alman then smiled and walked into the mosque, he then did the adhan.

"So what are you going to do next? You're definitely not going to stay here and let things drag on, are you?" ask Arini.

"Come, but for a short period of time, I plan to quit my job and work in the Dhananjaya orchard" replied Jhana.

"So, they're a family of investors and owners of a clothing company that owns a orchard?"

"Yes, the father was an investor and owner of a wealthy clothing company, but it seems that when his position was taken over by the mother, he was, mothers take care of their orchards and grow them rather than their investment businesses and clothing companies."

"But if you think that once in a while your friend Dina will take your children to the Dhananjaya mansion, would it be difficult to meet them if you work in the Dhananjaya orchard?"

"I know, even if it's a perfect disguise, I won't have a great chance to reunite with my children, but at least there's a chance I'll meet them."

Suddenly someone knocked on the door of the room of the marbot Jhana occupied. Arini opened it. He found Mr. Ustad Alman and Yazid standing at the door.

"Eh? Mr Ustad?" welcome Arini, Jhana immediately stood up to welcome Mr. Ustad Alman.

"Yazid said that there was a woman who had no place to live here. Where's people? I want to know more about him, he has to tell me" said Mr. Ustad Alman.

"I am the man, Mr. Ustad," said Jhana.

"Are we just going to talk in the mosque?" arini.

"Come, that's better" said Mr. Ustad Alman.

Jhana followed the three of them. No one has come to the mosque yet, there are only the four of them, so telling stories about things like Jhana's past is not something that Jhana should be held back by in this quiet state.

"So, what's your name?" ask Mr. Ustad Alman.

"I am Rinjhana, commonly called Jhana, Mr. Ustad," replied Jhana.

"If I'm Ustad Alman, just call me by that name" said Mr. Ustad Alman.

"Well, Mr. Ustad."

"Where are you from?"

"Where's your family? Why did you get here and have nowhere to stay?"

"Five years ago, I left Jakarta, ran to Jogja, left my family there."

"Why did you run?"

"I'm sorry, maybe I should have told you everything from the beginning, but it's going to be a little long, it's okay, Mr Ustad?"

"Oh, of course, just tell me, that's what I need right now."

"I was an orphan living in an orphanage in Jakarta since I was a baby, but when I was not even a year old, a family called Dhananjaya took care of me, they were a wealthy family, the head of the family was Farzin Dhananjaya, who was an investor, owned a clothing company and owned several orchards. Before my upbringing, my mother and foster father had a son named Rashid, and after my upbringing, they had three more biological children. The fact that I was an adopted child in the family was never covered up, but they all did not distinguish me and still loved me" Jhana explained.

"But in the end Rasid and I fell in love with each other and ended up in a relationship. Our relationship was not forbidden because we did not have a blood relationship, but my adoptive parents always treated us as brothers, they never expected that their adopted children would fall in love with each other, they will be very angry if something like that happens. When my mother and foster father betrothed Rashid to a woman named Raya, Rashid could not resist, because she was a submissive child to her parents, especially when Raya's father was sickly and very eager to see his only daughter get married, Rashid became sorry for Raya's father and accepted the match. I did not get in the way of the match, even though Rasyid honestly told me that he only loved me, he never loved Raya" continued Jhana.

"After marriage, Raya lived with the Dhananjaya family, and had a good relationship with the Dhananjaya family members, but when she found out that I was an adopted child, she said, he was trying to rid me of Dhananjaya's life and his life. He was disgusted with me and said that his true intention of marrying Rashid was revenge. He showed his guise in front of me, but he looked very good in front of the Dhananjaya family members. I tried not to announce the guise of Raya because I was afraid that in the end my family would consider me to love Rashid and not be willing to have the presence of Raya in the middle of the family" continued Jhana.

"Raya knew about my fear and it was becoming more and more so. He tried to poison my mother and tried to reduce the ration of the inheritance that I would get later, but everything worked out I failed. Rashid finally found out about it and began to hate Raya. Rashid could not divorce Raya because she remembered her vow to Raya's father to be her husband and guardian for the rest of her life. In the end, Rashid and I became more serious about our relationship, and our relationship was known to Raya, and she exposed everything about my relationship and the real Rashid. He accused us of cheating and said that I was a snatch girl. My mother was furious when my relationship with Rashid was exposed, but my father defended Rashid and me."

"I know that my relationship with Rashid will always be hated by my mother, but the name of love certainly does not look at anything anymore. Then I was expelled from the Dhananjaya mansion, and at that time I was pregnant. Before being evicted, I had received money from Rashid for my capital of survival, and that money I used to contract the house. Rashid still loves me, and vice versa, he still visits me very often and hides my pregnancy from the Dhananjaya family. Until I finally gave birth."

"So continued for a year until I became pregnant with our second child. After our second child was born, we decided to stop having children, while Rashid never got children from Raya. Over the years, me and my two children were able to survive because Rashid bore us, he routinely came five times a week and routinely gave me money. He always asked for orange flavor pudding when visiting me and our children. Until finally, Raya knew that Rashid and I were still in touch and had two children."

"Somehow, but she finally found out about my rented house. He told the other Dhananjaya family members about it, and of course they all came to me. Mother hit me and threatened me, mother said if I did not go far from the Dhananjaya family life, then me and my children would get a prolonged terror. And that's what made me run to Jogja, even though at that time I was pregnant with my third child from Rashid. Rashid was the only member of the Dhananjaya family who was not present when the collision occurred. I ended up being frightened by my mother's threats and decided not to communicate with Rashid again and started a new life here with my three children."

"Not long after I gave birth to my third child, I got word from my neighbor that someone named Rashid Dhananjaya committed suicide, and the case was covered by the media. And until now I did not know the reason Rashid committed suicide. Until finally, a coworker named Dina, invited me to follow her dinner with her fiance's family. Dina's family was in Pontianak, and her fiance's family told her to invite some of her friends to take her place, Dina then took me as well as my three children."

"The thing I least thought was, it turns out that Dina's fiancee was Rashid's younger brother, Isa his name. Isa is the youngest child, which means that the new family candidate Dina is my adoptive family, or maybe it can be called my former adoptive family."

"Where did you know that the family was Dhananjaya's?" ask Mr. Ustad Alman.

"Because I met my father in the front yard of their mansion. My father seems to have had a stroke, his legs are paralyzed, so are his hands, which he may be able to move a little, he is also difficult to speak now."

"Did they move from Jakarta to Jakarta?" ask Mr. Ustad Alman, again.

"Yes, they moved out and built a new mansion here. My father still accepted me, he cried happily when he met me again, I could see the look of happiness on his face. After meeting with my father, I decided not to enter the Dhananjaya mansion, while previously my wallet was left behind in the taxi that I, Dina and the children were riding in, so I waited for the taxi to come back in front of the gate, while the four of them went in to start their dinner, which is where I finally met my father.".

"What made you decide not to go inside?" ask Mr. Ustad Alman.

"Because I'm still traumatized by the expulsion that my mother did, ten years ago. They were all hostile towards me, except for my father, and under such circumstances, if Raya saw me, she would definitely instantly finish me off. There are too many risks that I take if I choose to enter the mansion" replied Jhana.

"Then what about your kids?"

"I indirectly entrust them to Dina, the Dhananjaya family will surely know that my children are poor and will not accept them. So, when I disappeared all of a sudden, Dina would definitely babysit my children."

"Why did you run away?"

"Because there will definitely be many questions from Dina, I am not ready to tell Dina everything, so I chose this path."

"What do you do and Dina?"

"We work in a restaurant, I work as a waiter and Dina as a cashier. Dina is the son of a rich man who chooses to live independently, so the Dhananjaya family approves of Isa and Dina's relationship."

"Dhananjaya's family has a proud nature?"

"Almost all of them are arrogant, I don't understand why either."

"What are your plans going forward?"

"I had left a letter in the ventilation hole at Dina's boarding house, I also left a little money in an envelope next to the letter. At five o'clock I'll go to my second child's school to pay for his tuition, only he's my son who goes to school."

"You're contracting a house in Jogja, right? What about the owner?"

"On that ...."
