Rainbow At the End of Dusk
Chapter 28

"Ilham won't be betrothed to Pah!" ilham said a little screaming.

New inspiration arrived in the dining room when his papa said it would match Ilham would even wave the girl in three days.

"You must want to!" said Mr. Nugraha flat but full of emphasis then rose from his seat and walked out of the dining room to his study.

"Well, Inspiration doesn't want to be betrothed to Mah!" ilham said to ask for support from the mother.

Karla's mother felt unbearable and stroked the soft head of Ilhan her son was resting in front of her and drowned his head in the lap of the mother.

"You know Ham, you like Anna, don't you?" said Mrs Karla while continuing to gently rub the head of Ilham.

Inspiration raised his head and shook his head.

"not Anna Mah, but Ilham likes another girl" said Ilham spoiled.

"Other girl?" mita said in shock as she frowned, Ilham nodded and stared blankly at the direction.

"The new girl Ilham knows, but is able to make the heart of Ilham pound when near him Mah."

"Who's the girl? meet Mamah quickly!"

"She's just an ordinary girl Mah, a girl who comes from a modest family in the village, a girl who is just a high school graduate but she's a hard worker and a sincere person." Inspiration tells with sparkling eyes

"Did she know your identity as the only child of your father?" asked the worried mother afraid that the girl whom Ilham liked only used her son's wealth. Inspiration shook her head in response to her motherhood

"really?" asked Karla's mother in disbelief, Ilham nodded his head slowly

"She's a sincere person to all people mah, even she's not used to depend on others despite her difficult life, she's an independent girl Mah," say Ilham while showing a sweet smile to the mama.

Karla's mother just sighed deeply and just silently no longer responded to her son, honestly as a mother she was still worried.

In this day and age where there is a sincere girl if she knows the man who approached her comes from a rich family, it seems that the girl has deceived Inspiration

"Well, please Inspiration to pursue the love of Ilham mah, please tell Papah Ilham not to be betrothed Mah!" ilham said pleading, Mita just kept quiet and sighed heavily.

I'm not sure if the girl Ilham likes is sincere, do I agree to a papah plan for Ilham's match? I don't think Papah would be wrong to choose a ghost

"Hmmm... mamah try yes dear, but mamah do not promise, do you know for yourself that your Papah has made a difficult decision to be persuaded" said soft Karla bu.

The silent inspiration of his eyes showed the disappointed look in his heart he justified his mamah words. Inspiration rose from his position and went from before his mother to his papa workspace, he would try to negotiate with the papah not to match him.

At least it should be tried, right? who knows, you can be persuaded

Tokks...

"Broth... Inspiration can come in?" ask Inspiration behind the door after giving a knock several times.

"Lake in!" tell Mr. Nugraha from the inside

Ilham came in and saw his papa sitting on the sofa looking at a photo, Ilham approached and sat beside his papa, looking at a picture,

"Mmm. pah, Ilham-"say Ilham hangs.

"You're saying you don't want to be betrothed?" said Mr. Nugraha cut off his son's speech. Inspiration is enthusiastic.

"What kind of girl did you scream at that time? you still like him?" said Mr. Nugraha flat while storing the photo he held and looked at from earlier on the table in front of him.

"Mmm... Which cleaning service is in the factory?" tanya Ilham made sure. Mr. Nugraha only nodded faintly.

Mr. Nugraha just looked at Ilham and stared blankly at the direction, Mr. Nugraha sighed heavily.

"Your mother will not agree you are chasing after the cleaning service girl Ham," said Mr. Nugraha flatly, Ilham nodded faintly and sighed deeply.

"I know the reward" said Ilham slowly while leaning his head against the sofa.

"If you knew why you still cultivate feelings for a girl who won't give your blessing? are you planning on eloping hum?" said Mr. Nugraha still with his flat expression.

"Not so Pah, I'll try to get the blessing of Mamah."

"Are you sure that girl will stand up to your mama's treatment even if you're married?"

"Ilham will keep him rewarded, no matter what!" insistent

"don't be overconfident, remember your mother is already struggling to conceive, give birth and care for you from childhood, don't let you hurt her just because of the girl you just know son," said Mr. Nugraha seriously who has now straightened his back and put both elbows on both thighs.

Inspiration only silently heard the words of his papa, in his heart he justified everything that was said by his papa, even if he could later defend his chosen girl but maybe it would hurt his mother, really Inspiration to feel the dilemma now.

How'this? do I have to let go of my love story that hasn't even started yet?

"You saw that picture!" alerted Mr. Nugraha to Ilham, Ilham complied and immediately straightened his back and grabbed a photo on the table, seen by him attached to the photo, looked two men his age who embraced each other and were laughing loosely, he said, the man who one Inspiration believed was his father when he was young and the other man he felt familiar and felt he had seen him.

Who is this huh? his face is not foreign

"She Gunawan papah friend who has been considered as his own brother, we used to be friends since High School and continued until college, he said, For a good child he is smart so even though he is an orphan he is able to complete his studies until S2 with a scholarship, Guna has been orphaned from the age of 12 years, he was able to finish his studies until S2 with a scholarship, since her father died she only lived with her mother who only worked as a farmer and occasionally sold cakes, Guna lost her birth mother when she was still in 3rd grade High School, since then to stay at your grandparents' house, to have a good child and be able to carry yourself so that your grandparents love him like you love papah." Mr. Nugraha let out a heavy sigh of silence for a moment before continuing his story, he set his breath like holding tightness in his chest.

"After graduating S2 we both had dreams of having a food company, finally armed with the knowledge and capital we had we pioneered our first company, you know? In order to give up a patch of rice fields the only relics of his father and mother were sold for the initial capital of our company." Mr. Nugraha was again silent he sighed heavily and now his eyes were already glazed, the look in his eyes showing deep sadness and regret.

"In the beginning we pioneered the company, papah fell in love with a girl named Mita Larasati the only daughter of Pak Reksi Perdana, a famous hotel entrepreneur in Bandung, Bandung, papah is too blinded by love until whatever papah does to get the blessing to marry your mama, papah, In order to be the best friend papah always supports any effort papah to get the blessing of Mr. Reksi including taking pains to develop the company NGFOOD to have a large turnover according to the requirements of Mr. Reksi to ask for your mama, In order to agree on behalf of NGFOOD fully owned by papah so that papah can marry your mother, six years later NGFOOD developed into one of the largest food factories in Bandung, Bandung, papah was married to your mother even you were 4 years old at that time."

"For six years Guna faithfully accompanied Papah as secretary of papah even though he was entitled to 50% of the company but he always refused to get a high position, once NGFOOD suffered a major loss due to the evasion of the company's funds are not small in number, the evidence all points to Guna, papah denied everything because papah believes Guna is not such a person, he said, but your mother she was angry with papah for being too defensive for Guna finally your mama asked papah to choose to defend our marriage or defend Guna in the company."

"And papah chose to keep papah's marriage?"tanya Ilham interrupted his papa story, Mr. Nugraha seemed to nod faintly

"Your grandfather and grandmother were disappointed in Papah for making a decision without investigating it first, a month passed by when he found out the truth, that Guna was trapped and vilified by one of the managers at the factory for embezzling the funds, he made evidence as if Guna did it, papah regrets and regrets papah late because Guna has disappeared and cut off all papah access to find him from the moment he expired from the company." Mr. Nugraha ended his sentence with sobbing now the tears that he had been holding had been creek in his cheeks, he had not thought about the authority he kept in front of his son.

This is why the relationship of grandfather, grandmother and papah and mama is not harmonious.Inner Inspiration

"The new father knows that Gunawan has been living a difficult life in a village, his children even find it difficult to get nutritious food and proper education because of the lack of living costs, while papah lives a luxurious and prosperous life, even though the luxury that our family feels the results of hard work Guna who helps papah without knowing the time at the beginning of pioneering the company." Now that Mr. Nugraha was downcast while still grimly unable to continue his sentence again, Ilham silently tried to absorb the guilt of his papa, only the regretful cry of Mr. Nugraha was heard in the room.

Without the father and son knowing behind the door there is a pair of ears that come to listen to the story of the poignant 20 years ago, the body of Karla's mother poured out on the floor behind the door while crying bitterly listening to her husband's story, now she understands why since that incident her household was not as harmonious at the beginning of the marriage even her husband was cold and not as warm as before, ms. Karla smothered her own mouth so that the sound of her crying was not heard by Ilham and Mr. Gunawan.

"Papah please marry his son Guna Ham! and help papah restore all rights back," said Mr. Gunawan firmly after ending his crying.

"Bah.a-i.." Inspiration was unable to finish his sentence his voice was stuck in the throat, really he was in a dilemma of what decision he should take.
