On the other hand, Rendi also had to face the same thing as Sani. Both of her parents upset her superior relationship with Sani, who had apparently been intertwined for quite a long time.


" Mommy doesn't think you're Ren!" snapped at the Mama.


Rendi silenced a thousand languages.


" Strengthen your faith in God, son, you know, your father is a person who is quite well known by other congregations, Your father is known as a church that is so obedient to God." say the Mama again.


" But Rendi has her own life choice Mah."


" Randy! Look, Mama, in our big family history, no one's changed trust. You see Om Tomi, he is now a pastor who has hundreds of congregations in the church!" said Mama.


" Mah .. It's my personal problem Mah, my business with God." denied Rendi.


" This is your reward for Lord Ren? who has given himself up to atone for the sins of us all!" tukas the Mama lantang.


" Has right, you always have a reason to go to church. You were so obedient, never forsaken God, always involved God in everything, but what now! " hardik Mama again.


Hearing the mother's words, Rendi bowed. Likewise with the father and his sister, who had been silent since then, did not sound.


" Mah .. is not Rendi is an adult, Rendi has the right to determine the path of Rendi's own life Mah." said Rendi sendu.


" Did you, Mama ever forbid you to do anything you wanted Ren to do? " ask Mama.


Rendi shook her head slowly, she understood very well, all this time all her actions, everything she did, never got rejection from her parents, they always supported whatever Rendi did, she said, while it's a positive thing. But for this one thing? like her until anytime will never get permission from both parents.


" Whatever you do, we always support you son. But, for this one will never." concluded Mama.


Martin, the father who had been silent earlier, also now spoke. Very wisely, he advised his eldest son.


" Ren, Mama and Dad know this is your choice, son, but please think about it again" Martin said.


" Rendi thought all this was well."


" Ren, do not let you regret for leaving God only for the sake of ordinary people, who are also God's creations. Look, what God has loved in your life all this time." continued Martin.


" Well...is this a mistake?" tanya Rendi full of pity.


" This is not a mistake, son, because all religions are true good and true. But I don't want to, you're sorry the next day. Pray and pray to the Lord, who loves you always." said Martin wisely.


" Everytime, you will never agree! " the mother said loudly, then she stood up leaving her husband and her two children.


Rendi could only let out a long sigh, her feelings completely consumed with all of this, so heavy a trial that she had to go through.


" Go to church, pray to God, ask for guidance" Martin said.


Now live Rendi and the sister who is still sitting in the middle room. Kristi, Rendi's sister, kept trying to calm her brother down.


" Sister .. "call him, Rendi turned with my eyes.

" Better brother pray with God, may be given the best path" he said with a smile.

That night, Rendi looked so fervently praying in a church, which was not far from her home. He poured all his sadness and grief before God, he asked God to give the best way for all the problems he was facing.


" God ..you have been so kind to me all this time, your love, your blessings, has never been cut off for my life. You are the owner of my life, I give my whole soul to serve you. But, at this time I am confused, give me a clue to all the problems I am facing" said Rendi in her prayer.


Rendi continued to cry as she pleased in front of the crucifix, a belief she had believed in since birth.


" Lord ..Make me a light to those around me, make me a blessing to all. If indeed he is my soul mate, give me ease for all this, amen." said Rendi who increasingly sobbing.


For a moment, there was the sound of footsteps of someone, like walking toward him. His sister Rendi's appearance came, then he sat down beside her.


" sister?" kristi said as she patted slowly on her brother's shoulder.


Rendi turned, "Yes, why?"


Not his answer, Kristi actually smiled and then he hugged the brother who was very loved it.


" Kristi does not know what really happened, but Kristi hopes, brother Rendi can decide all this with full consideration" said Kristi while releasing her embrace.


Rendi smiled at her sister, who had now grown into a beautiful girl.


" Involve God in all your business" he continued.


" Dek ... if for example you are in the position of Rendi's sister, how?" ask Rendi to her sister.


For a moment Kristi was silent, she seemed to think.


" It is difficult ... But if I can be honest, everything Mama says is true." Kristi replied.


Rendi seemed disappointed to hear the answer of the sister, who felt did not match her expectations.


" But it's up to Rendi, it's already a big brother's business with God, let God decide." concluded Kristi smiling.


Rendi nodded slowly, then she turned back to face the front.


" This is my brother." said Kristi handing over a bible.


" The Word of God in the Bible, can make you much calmer, read ya." he continued.


" Thank you, brother Rendi also has not opened the Bible for a long time" said Rendi.


" Yes, if so I go home first." said Kristi.


" Yes deck, be careful."


Kristi then moved and stepped out of the church, leaving Rendi who was still pensive while solemnly praying.
