Juminten Charm
CHAPTER 50

"I leave hope not because of a mere belief, but also there is a sense of confidence and want. You who I have given hope to hold the confidence of the heart, why be silent and ignore the feelings without acting to grant them."

Flashbacks

Today, Mala entered the school with a big smile. Farid and Resti were sitting quietly in front of the class, waiting for school hours to come in. He greeted them first.

" Good morning, everybody! "

" Morning. Wow, bright really you Mal today!" Goda Resti's.

"Abis has been given Mila's money many times." Imbuh Farid's.

"No..No.." Moving her index finger with a smile. "I'm all right, come in yuk! This is Mr. Dodit's lesson. "

"Yes, I went to class first. Hye!" Farid waved his hand at Resti as well as Mala and went to his class.

They also went to class together. Resti frowned to see Mala sitting herself on Juminten's seat with her leisure. Make it instantly up in the fog looking for ideas, so as not to occupy Juminten's seat.

"Mal, sorry. This is Juminten's seat." said Resti while sitting in his place..

Mala turned her head, trying to hold back her emotions that were bubbling up in her chest. Heard the name of the man he hated.

"Yes, I'm sitting here right now, okay?" She tried to talk as usual.

"Sorry, Mall. You usually sit in the back. Entar if suddenly Juminten dateng how? It's usually the kids late." Resti still defended Juminten's position beside him.

"Juminten's not going to school anymore, I'm ja-min! Semalem, I've met people at the lake." Mala put on a sour face in light of last night's embarrassing incident.

"That guy! Tuh people! Name's Juminten! Haha.. You're like someone else, huh!" Resti was still trying to be ordinary, despite the many question marks in his mind.

"That's someone else to me. I've also known him!" answer casually Mala.

Brak!

Resti kicked their table, leaving him shocked. The gaze of his shady eyes was gone, changing with a giddy look like he was ready to swallow his prey. Mala was scared, seeing her best friend like that.

"Gue didn't expect it! We are not enemies! Why do you say that!"

"If he's a friend, why DOES HE CALL ALL THE ATTENTION OF PEOPLE AROUND ME INCLUDING BANG BAMBANG!"

Plaque!

The loud sound of Resti's slap echoed inside the classroom. Even their friends were one class, frightened to see the face of Resti who turned fierce like that. His voice was unsettling, the veins on his neck even appeared every time he spoke.

Mala is increasingly made emotional, seeing her best friend still defending Juminten "Why? It is not that Juminten is also in Bambang talak and depressed because she is pregnant. You know that too, right? So, why do you have to defend him?"

Their friends who heard their quarrels, began to make their own bounty strongholds. Issuing unsourced statements aka hoax.

" Must be, girls don't go to school! Not all school rules, prohibit pregnant students from getting an education and getting kicked out of school!" say brave Mala.

It feels like Resti's tubers are ready to bill. Mala seemed to forget, that her own sister who already had children was studying there.

Mala seemed to be made a dead flea with his words. His eyes that could stare at his friend, could only look down afraid of what Resti said. Imagining her biological brother being kicked out of school, her body felt limp.

" he..! "

The more boisterous the voices of their classmates. They were unconscious, their homeroom teacher had been peeping at them from the start and recording all their words.

Suddenly their commotion stopped due to the sound of school speakers.

"Good morning. Sorry to interrupt your lesson time for a moment, please concern him with all the Calls to Nirmala, Nirmila, Adinda Resti from the eleventh grade. Bambang Dwi from the twelfth grade to the counseling guidance room. Thanks for the attention. "

Plash!

The more limp Mala's body heard her name and Mila went into the counseling room for the first time. Resti who saw her, narrowed her lips.

So be careful when you say. The sap itself just nyahok, you!

Rohaya serves tea as well as snacks for his guests inside. Deliberately forgetting her ex-daughter-in-law who was sitting outside.

"I'm sorry Mrs Rohaya and Mrs Udin if our presence surprises Mr and Mother, " said Dodit began the conversation.

"Far before my father and mother were here. I've imagined there will be this situation, sir. Because, we are aware of the consequences that our child will have, " replied Udin.

"I'm sorry, can you tell me how it happened. Because, the school failed three students who had children, were pregnant and married," asked Dodit.

"Actually, we married them only sirri because they were forced to marry because my late friend Mbak Dina was dying. We've both reminded them to focus on school compared to marriage."

"Yes, my mother-teacher father knows how the high school diploma is now a difficult job vacancy. But, their name is also kasmarannya make them do the husband and wife relationship. And the result is my son is now pregnant."

Dodit who saw the Juminten family like to keep a distance with his ex, walked to the front of the house to invite Bambang in with various threats.

" MISTER DODIT, JUMI PLEASE DO NOT INVITE THE PIRATE INTO THE HOUSE ANYWAY! " instantly stop the steps of those who will enter.

Everyone there was stunned for a moment, hearing the screams of the pregnant mother. Rohaya immediately ran to hug her son, worried that frustration was returning and immediately led him into the room. Let Udin handle it.

" I'm sorry to both my father and mother for being offended by my son's screams. Juminten is still in the process of healing from psychologists, because of frustration after being on the man's talaq" said Udin while glancing at the front.

Bambang lowered his head, looking at the intimidating gazes from everyone there.

Dodit finally went back into the living room without Bambang. Seeing the situation getting worse, he should get to the point.

Dodit took out a long white envelope that read letterhead from inside his bag.

"Please accept the father, this is a decision letter from the head of the foundation, the principal and the teachers for Juminten."

Udin accepts he can only resign and legowo, with the fate of his son's school.

"And this letter belongs to Bambang, please also receive it. Because Bambang has no guardian, so we gave it to Mr. Udin. Please Accept. " Udin was shocked and accepted.

While Bambang, can only resign and sit his head more. Juminten said last night about karma. And true, karma came to him today unexpectedly.

Bambang slapped his knees, his body felt helpless. The future is bright, it feels blurry for a moment. His high fantasy for success is like disappearing instantly. Lamenting the fate of his life that had no parents, far from his brother, out of school and separated from his wife.
