Long Journey of Tough Women
20. The Struggle is Long

To finish something does not mean that the struggle is over. Because that's where everything starts. Sometimes we have to train, but never stop because the journey is still too long to pass. Eda Sally

*****

Yuana who made an appearance at Farel's restaurant only lasted for 3 months because she was busy working on the thesis.

The basically intelligent Yuana didn't take long to complete the script. Due to his diligence and hard work, he actually completed his studies in just three years.

Despite receiving a scholarship and being facilitated by papa Jack, Yuana never made it all up to play around. He valued time so much that he had no time to be silent and do nothing.

Today he will be at graduation. Dad, Mom, Joshua, mommy, and papa look very happy. They all came just to watch him wear the toga.

"Mi, isn't Nita any news?" He said he'd come. Ask Yuana to mommy.

"Mommy hasn't heard from me either." Mami says menimpali

Ah, suppose you're here, Nit! I will certainly hug you and be very grateful that you have given me a place, not only in your home but in the hearts of your parents as well. You made me realize that loving each other doesn't have to be a serahim. Hope you're okay there. Yuana

They will enter the hall room where the graduation will take place. Suddenly Yuana's eyes caught a familiar figure, whom she had missed for three years.

"Dear?" Unknowingly her tears just escaped.

everyone was shocked and followed Yuana's gaze.

Nita who saw Yuana and the others immediately ran towards them and directly hugged Yuana

After releasing her embrace Nita said:

"Why are you ugly when you're going to graduation?"

Imagine that statement coming out of Nita's mouth as if not seeing Yuana crying haru. He did not bother because he did not want to see Yuana crying.

Cih, always has been. His nature still exists. Hey you didn't see that I was pretty? Yuana

"Sana hugs mami with papa and others. We'll be right in. You came on time." Yuana does not care about Nita's ravings and subtly expels Nita.

Nita then turns to hug her mom with a little drama. Crying certainly. He took away all the longings he had endured for three years.

Then he turned and embraced his father without forgetting his uncle and aunt and Joshua.

They immediately went inside to attend the graduation event that was about to begin.

Event after event has taken place and will now be announced students who graduate with cumlaude status. Everyone held their breath when this one arrived. Even at that time if there is a needle that falls may be heard.

In the midst of that silence, the Rector immediately stood up and then said:

"For graduates of this class, with the title of highly Satisfying graduation and cumlaude predicate achieved by ananda,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Yuana Samantha."

"To ananda Yuana Samantha is expected to come forward."

A very loud applause filled the whole room.

All who accompanied Yuana were seen holding back tears of happiness due to the results achieved by Yuana, especially when Yuana was called to come forward.

Yuana came forward with a flailing feeling of sadness, sadness, and happiness. He looked clumsy when told to say a word. He accepted the mic hesitantly, but then steadied his heart and said:

"Today, I need to express my deep gratitude to the Lord who has allowed me to achieve everything as it is today. This success and achievement is also certainly not obtained by me for my own efforts. There are many people behind me who have sacrificed so much everything that I could stand where I am today."

"I humbly express my gratitude to Joshua's father, mother, and brother who have always supported me. And countless thanks to my mom, papa, and Nita who have encouraged and facilitated in so many ways that I can achieve this position. Also a thank you to Mr/Mother lecturer who has guided me all this time, and friends who have been a place to share many things and learn together."

"I realize, it's not much. I still have a lot to learn because there are still a lot of things I have to deal with out there."

Yuana smoothly ended her speech. All eyes were fixed on him as in hypnosis and simultaneously gave a very lively applause.

You deserve this Yu. I'm proud of you. Your perseverance makes you deserve to stand where you are today. Nita

After the show was over, Yuana and her family immediately went home. They don't go straight home. Because Mr. Farel, Rey's father, gave free lunch together to all of them for the success of Yuana.

"This is a thank you because Yuana has helped a lot in the development of my family's restaurant. Before Yuana sang here, the restaurant was always crowded, but the customers rose dramatically when Yuana worked here." Om Farel was seen speaking at length.

"Ah, don't be like that om. Yuana is not good. Yuana's just channeling her hobby."

Pretending to say like that, when originally happy because mommy equally papa does not need to spend money for a meal.

"Congratulations Yu. It's from me, mommy, and papa." Nita offers flowers and a small red box.

"You can just come I'm so grateful Nit."

Said so but his hand was nosy also to open the box because it had been killed curiosity.

"Just open up, don't be shy." Nita seemed to understand Yuana's heart and told her to open the box.

What it is about.

His hand kept moving open and so open he himself was shocked because it contained a very nice ring and of course expensive.

Whoa! The price of this ring if in the taxi, the price of my clothes sold all was not enough to buy a ring like this. Yuana.

"And this is from me, father, and mother." Joshua also gave a parcel with flowers.

"If you want to open it is okay. Don't hesitate. No journalists covered the event. It's totally private." Nita's getting nosy.

"don't want. Later at home. Let's eat first."

Yuana switched the conversation because if left unchecked, Nita would continue to chirp.

They eat with no rules do not talk while eating, because Nita has dominated with various questions to all of them. He doesn't care about rules. For him he had to take off everything he had held for three years.

The table where they ate looked full of happy atmosphere, emanating from their faces.
