LIFE MUST GO ON


NARA


Nara sat on the floor of her room looking at the photo album. The album contains memories of his High School days with Abi, Arumi, and other friends.


Something he just realized today. In almost all the photos together, Arumi always takes a position next to Abi. That means, Abi is in the middle between himself and Arumi. What does this mean, Arumi has had a taste in Abi since High School? That's probably the most reasonable possibility.


"I don't want to know anyway. No divorce suit, but marriage annulment."


Nara could still hear the screams of her papa who was in the guest room. Yes, today, there was a meeting between his family and Abi's family. But Nara chose to stay in the room, not wanting to show the trunk of her nose because she could not look at Abi.


Last night, his mother was shocked to see him arriving home. Shouldn't he and Abi be in Japan, but why would he go home instead?


Sobbing, Nara explained everything to her parents. His father was very angry, while his mother fainted so fainted knowing the fate of his daughter.


"I don't want my son to be a widow. You are Abi, responsibility. Do whatever it takes to get your wedding annulled. Including if necessary, you lie if you are married to be silent."


"According to religion, your business and Nara's been done since you dropped the talaq on her. But the law has not. So hurry up and take care of the wedding annulment. Remember, annulment, not divorce."


Again only the voice of his father was heard. Maybe Abi and his family are too embarrassed to be able to speak.


Nara could not help her tears as she looked at her picture and Abi who was still wearing an ash-white uniform. Taking selfies in the school cafeteria. Where it became the most historic place for them while in High School.


"Abi's sister, huh?" Sapa Nara on a guy who has the name Abimana megantara. That afternoon, she was put in school while Abi was eating with a friend.


"Yes, what's the need?" Abi asked two girls with funny looks. Hair braided 7 with colorful ribbon. On his chest was a large name tag that read Nara and Amel.


"Can you interview for a second?" Ask Nara.


"Make?"


"Task mos."


"Should I?" Abi pointed at himself.


"Even, not really." Nara hesitated. Facing a simple mistake Abi did make his heart beat uncharacteristically. Until I talk it feels like a wave.


He gets the job of interviewing accomplished kakel. The options are many, but somehow when the osis shows some profile photos of outstanding students, he immediately focused on Abimana.


"Why choose my interview?"


"Because of the handsome brother." The spontaneous apron of Amel invites the laughter of Abi and her friend. Some even hit the table until the atmosphere became boisterous.


Amel immediately bit his lower lip when he realized that he was upset. While Nara, her face was red because she was ashamed of Amel's actions.


"Gue is also handsome, my interview is just that." One of Abi's friends offered to.


"Ki.. we want an interview with the.chairman of the basketball team." Nara tried to explain.


"No, Adam's the head of his basketball team, not me." Abi pointed to Adam sitting in front of him.


Nara and Amel look at each other. Same confused. Is there any data error given osis.


"But. from the information given by the osis earlier. The name of the head of his basketball team is Abimana." Amel said as he squeezed her skirt. "Well, isn't it Ra? Was I reading wrong?" Amel looked at Nara.


"It's really." Lirih Nara looked at Amel. Clearly photographed profile shown the sausage was indeed Abi. Not the guy in front of him.


"You cry out Bi. Not what kasian. Don't get fucked up again. Kasian son of a man. Where beautiful is that. Beuh likes to see a clear class brother gini." One of Abi's friends.


"So you want my interview?"


Nara and Amel hurriedly nodded.


"May, but not free."


Amel and Nara looked at each other. That means they were told to pay?


"How much?" Ask Amel innocently. Sontak made Abi and her friend back to open up.


"Don't use money, but use your cell phone number." Abi replied with a smile looking at Nara.


"This is Nara's number." Amel shows Nara's contacts stored on her phone.


"Amel." Sizzle Nara while glaring at her friend. Without her consent, she gives Nara her number.


Tok tok tok tok


Nara woke up from her daydream when she heard a knock on the door. He hastily wiped away the tears and kept the photo album under the bed.


"Eat yuk." Take her new mother in.


"Abi and her family, are you home?"


"It."


Nara nodded then got up from her seat and followed her step towards the dining table.


There was Satrio, his papa waiting. The usually energetic, feisty middle-aged man's face tonight looked gloomy. Even his eyes look red.


"Sit down." Her mother pulled a chair for Nara and led her to sit down immediately.


"Everything's gonna be okay." Said Satrio while holding Nara's hand on the table.


Nara nodded, and a few seconds later, her tears melted.


"Don't cry anymore." Satrio stood up and approached Nara. Clutching his daughter's head while occasionally kissing the top of her head.


Nara wrapped both her hands around her papa's waist while being stunned. While his mother, many times seemed to be wiping away tears.


"Papa will never let you be a widow. Papa doesn't want papa's son to be this didzolimi. Abi's family has to take responsibility. Papa will seek the annulment of the marriage, so that your status is not a widow in the eyes of the law."


"Can it be?" Nara asked as she lifted her face to look at the papa.


"Most likely to. If a man can apply for a marriage annulment when he finds out his newly married wife is pregnant with another man. Can't a woman file for annulment when she finds out her husband impregnated another woman while newly married?"


"Especially you've been ingested before being treated. There is no reason to refuse a marriage annulment. The widow who was cut before she was raised, there was no time for her id."


"Let this affair papa and the lawyer take care of. You don't have to think about anything else."


"Bah, eat first. Do not let because of a lot of thoughts and late eating, the stomach relapses." Reminds her husband.


"Well, we eat first." Satrio let go of his arms and returned to his seat.


For a moment, the mood changed with silence. Only the sound of the clanking of spoons and forks could be heard.


"Oh yes, in the papa campus there is a non PNS permanent lecturer recruitment selection, do you want to try?" Tawar Satrio interrupted between eating them.


Nara first swallowed the food in her mouth before answering her papa's question.


"Sorry Pah, Nara does not want to participate in the selection in the papa campus. Fear of the grapevine nepotism. Know for yourself, the current generation is critical. Nara doesn't want, Entar if he escapes, even suspected of papa's help. Nara wanted to stand on Nara's own feet. Prove to everyone, if Nara can and can."


Satrio was proud to hear Nara's reply. Just like him when he was young.


"Nara was told Nova. There is a lecturer recruitment at Bela Bangsa University. Nara's plan is to come along."


"Good, let's get busy. And do not forget, immediately continue the program S3."


"He just finished S2 Pah. Don't be too rushed to take a doctorate. Let Nara relax first." Tiur Protest.


"Busying yourself is one way to forget about your problems. Papah just wants Nara to move on immediately."


"Nara will be concerned in the recruitment of lecturers first. If it passes and can be a lecturer, as soon as possible, Nara will continue S3." Said Nara while staring at papa and her mother alternately.


"Good, that's Papah's son." Satrio gave his thumbs to Nara.


As for Tiur, she could only shake her head at the compactness of her son and husband. Nara, clearly downgraded her papa spirit in terms of education and career. A little different from her brother. Kinan is a little relaxed in his career. After becoming a general practitioner, Kinan had not even wanted to take a specialist. She seems to enjoy her role as a wife and mother.
