And the man who spoke out loud was David who had heard the complaints of Madam Gita since earlier.
"Who would object to the status of my wife who is only a connecting mother, so as to bestow all the blame on my daughter Rima?"
"Say.....!!"
David shouted so angrily as he entered the hall room.
"You lady Gita, what right do you have to say all that to my wife and daughter?"
"Why is it that if Naima can't conceive and give birth, isn't she entitled to be a mother?"
"Answer !!"
David snapped at Madame Gita so angrily so that Madame Gita did not wince even bowed embarrassed.
"Yes, it's true that Naima was just a connecting mother to Rima, but I know how this woman you doubted was just because she couldn't conceive and give birth to, she said,love and love my daughter.Even she is able to take care of Rima much better than a mother who can give birth though, for example, a mother like you mistress Gita who can only gossip."
David said so firmly to defend me from the scathing comments of Madame Gita.
"So the honorable jury, I believe you are a learned man who is able to objectively assess the content of each participant's speech,please determine whether my daughter deserves or does not get the title of champion from the speech she delivered
a."
David said he handed back the assessment to the jury's decision, but not the jury who answered but the guardians of the students present in the hall.
"Breadth..."
"Want to...."
Shouted the audience who from the beginning did like the speech that Rima read.
"Mr David and Ms. Naima, no matter what Ms. Gita comments,you should know that we are the jury here who are entitled to give value and decide from the appearance of each participant.And for that we have decided that the winner of the speech competition with the theme of the figure who is in the admire is.."
"Princess Wijaya....."
And the name Rima was legitimately announced as the first champion of the race read the speech.Head that had been bowed and powerless to hold back the tears finally upright again proudly received the trophy kemengan given directly by the principal.
"Give a big round of applause to the champions..."
The headmaster asked the audience to applaud the winners.
While I, the,
I just fell silent without a word, I was amazed to see David's firmness in defending me.I felt as if he didn't want anyone to insult and humiliate me and Rima.
"Thank you, Mr. David, you're here to attend this event, and we're sorry for the inconvenience you've experienced."
Said the chairman of the school foundation where I teach.
"It doesn't matter Mr. Surbakti, but I want to say one more thing to you."
David said as if he was generous.
"Yes sir say.."
"You certainly know my company is the biggest donor in your foundation, right?"
"Yes your master is right"
Answer the chairperson of the foundation.
"That means I also have the right to make decisions in this foundation."
David again began to show his power.
"Of course sir, then what decision do you want to make"
"I want Madam Gita's child not to go to school here anymore."
Said David purposely speaking in front of Madame Gita.
"What's the reason, sir?"
Ask the foundation chairman.
"The reason is clear, if Madame Gita has dared to speak inappropriate to embarrass your students in this school, namely Rima, he said,I'm sure this will happen again on occasion to come.And this will have a bad influence on all the children here,I think that reason is enough to get the child out of Madam Gita from this school.I do not want this Gita mistress to interact again with this school,whether it's the reason for his son's shuttle or something else that can make him influence the other guardians of the students about things that are not good and not worth discussing at school."
Obviously David was so firm in front of Madame Gita as if he wanted to tell her that Madame Gita needed to know who David was Wijaya's son, and not try to disturb his son and wife.
"Okay sir, I will make this decision a reality as soon as possible."
Answer the chairperson of the foundation.
And again I was surprised by David's statement,I did not expect the school where I taught all this time was funded by a person who I have always maki in my heart.Dam today that person does not bear the responsibility of his anger when he saw someone insulting and demeaning me.
David said without saying goodbye holding my hand with his right hand, and holding Rima with his left, we came out of the hall with hundreds of pairs of eyes looking at us.
And I'm still amazed by David's attitude today just shut up and follow David's footsteps to get out until we get in the car.
Before starting the car I saw David close his eyes and take a deep breath as if he was relieved to have let go of all his anger.
I feel very anxious to say thank you but it is very difficult for me to say.Besides the prestige I am also afraid of saying my thanks in reply to insults.Since I know more about the bad side of a david than on the good side even though new I'll just see for myself.
I also became silent clumsily along the way, but not with Rima.
"Wow dad...."
"Do you know, today's dad looks really cool, just let Nai's mom."
Rima praised David.
"really?"
David asked smiling.
"Yes dad, today I'm really like a superhero in my favorite cartoon"
Praise Rima again.
"Oh yeah, is that really it?"
"Where is my gift to you as a thank you?"
Said David.
"Do we give gifts when we say thank you?"
Ask Rima.
"Of course it's a pity, even if it's just a small gift but it indicates that we are sincerely thanking someone."
Said David glancing at me and smiling cynically.While I was getting more riled up thinking I should give what gift if I say thank you to this widower.
"Can one kiss be daddy?"
Ask Rima.
"Of course it's a pity, and I really like that gift."
David answered again glancing at me and sniffed as if he knew that I was agitated and frightened about saying thank you and giving gifts.
"Mmmmuachh..."
"Thank you dad for coming at the right time when Nai's mom and I needed your protection.
Rima kissed David's left cheek from behind.
"Yes, my dear, it's my responsibility to protect you."
David said trying to explain to Rima and to me indirectly that if anyone tried to hurt us David would be a shield protecting us
"Well..one thank you and a gift I got.Kira think what other gifts will you get from the next thank you?"
"Is it the same gift?"
Said David glancing and smiling cynically again towards me.
"Ohuk..uhuk...."
And I coughed coughingly at David's question, not only that, but my hair stood up imagining what if he asked me to kiss him as a gift.Oh my goodness.
"Mother Nai are you okay?"
Rima asked, while patting my back so worried.
"Yes baby, Mom Nai is fine."
I answered while holding the nape of my neck feeling uncomfortable.
"Have, don't think too hard about it"
David said in a soft tone while giving me a handkerchief.
"Remove the cold sweat on your face, and save your trepidation, for later when I say what gift you deserve to give as your thanks."
Again David smiled saying all this to me.But the smile seemed to mock me because he already knew what I was thinking.And I just fell silent with my cold hands.
Seriate.....
