The Neglected Pearl
Part 96 Mass marriage

The regret in Dela's heart was only felt, after her feet stepped on the heat of the road during the day.

“Try it, I do not apply cynicism and evil to all children of the orphanage, surely this kind of thing will not happen.

Rice had become porridge, regret had always come at the end of time, the sorrow of Dela's heart accompanied her clean and white footsteps. Because always get care from the children of the home.

That afternoon after Tesa's body was mummified, Mang Ojo saw a deep sadness on his son's face, slowly approaching Dika who was still fixated.

“Why? Are you still thinking about Tesa?”

“Eh, there's Mr,” said Dika smiled widely.

The smile that came out of his lips, looked fake, the smile was not genuine, in front of his Father Dika had to smile, so that the atmosphere looks bright.

“Do not think too much, Tesa has returned to nature, make this a valuable lesson in our lives.”

“Iya, Sir. Actually, I am sad, not because Tesa died, but what makes me sad, why all this time, I did not monitor directly to the home that I have taken care of and I treated with the best.

“All that is not because of your fault alone son, there are times when the trust we leave to others, which is often called trust. There are times too, we do it ourselves, that's also if we can do it.”

“But sir, I have neglected to watch over them, I am too busy with my own personal affairs.”

“And you have entrusted them all to the caretaker, yes it is their duty to listen to the complaints of the children of the home.”

“Are you full of all their needs?”

“Udah, Sir.”

“Do you, have you received any complaints from them?”

“what needs to be conveyed to me, that's what I bought first, the children need a washing machine, I also have bought some units, they need a refrigerator, I also fulfill their wishes, I also, but shit, it turns out something's wrong in it.”

“Then which woman has caused Tesa to die?” asked Mang Ojo to know.

“He has been kicked out sir,” replied Dika with deep sadness.

“Why should I be kicked out! Hand him over to the police, it's better that he doesn't do anything to others.”

“But I pity him, Sir.”

“It is even more pity, if he wanders out there being a vagrant and stealing other people's stuff.”

Hearing the explanation from Mang Ojo, Dika also confirmed it, but because he was so emotional, so he acted, without thinking anymore.

“Already, this is a lesson for all of us, this incident is a picture of a child who wants to rebel because it is not satisfied with the supervisor in the orphanage, starting tomorrow try to fix the arrangement of the supervisors of the orphanage.”

“Good Sir.”

“If there is something that is not suitable or not suitable, you should just replace it with another, to become a person, who watches so many children, you should look for the most diligent, you should look for the most diligent, the fastest and do not be lazy,” Mang Ojo's orders firmly.

Although Mang Ojo looks so soft, but he has a high disciplinary spirit, because according to Mang Ojo, if from childhood the child is not educated with good discipline, so until he grows up, they will always be lazy and indifferent.

After Tesa's departure, the parlour seemed still grieving, the shadow of Tesa's face often came in their hearts, a deep sadness, making the orphanage children feel lazy.

That morning, Zaki and Dika came to the orphanage, in order to fix the arrangement of the caretaker, on that occasion, all the orphanage children who were over twenty years old, were told to face, to the caretaker.

Those who came to be asked one by one by Zaki, who among them wanted to have a family, there were about fifteen people who at that time came to Zaki, they all wanted to get married.

A twenty-two-year-old boy came up to Zaki, whispering.

“If I want to get married, then who will marry me Sir?”

“We will marry you, we call the ruler here, and we carry out mass marriage,” Zaki replied in a soft voice.

“We will bear it, you just need to find your partner, who is suitable for you, then report to Mr.”

“But I do not have a suitable candidate, for me to marry Sir,” replied Antoni honestly.

“You can also search out there, which one you think fits.”

“But I don't know any women out there sir?”

“Then you marry this orphanage woman, they are all well, because they have all been trained to do good with others.”

“Alright, I'll think about it first."

'Alright I will give you two weeks, to strengthen your choices, later when it is finished, you stay facing the Father, so that the Father will take care of you.”

“Good, Sir,” answer them simultaneously.

No need to wait up to two weeks, it turns out they have all prepared their respective candidates and submitted them to Zaki.

In fifteen people who were over twenty years old, only six pairs came to bring their respective partners, meanwhile, Antonio who had been so excited, did not show his wishes.

“Means there are six pairs who will get married tomorrow, then Antonia where, has she not got her partner?”

“Not Sir, his current lover is still eighteen years old, so it was decided to wait.”

“Ooo, so. Alright, for these twelve, you guys have agreed to get married?”

“Iya, Sir,” answer them simultaneously.

“Now you can disperse, prepare yourself, tomorrow we will call penghulu to marry you all.”

How happy, the residents of the orphanage, heard the very encouraging news, meanwhile, Zaki and Dika took this matter to a family meeting.

“So there are twelve people who will get married?”

“Iya, Sir.”

Hearing the news, Mang Ojo seemed silent for a moment, the atmosphere in the house was as if gripping at that time, not long after that Mang Ojo spoke up.

“Alhuda, what do you think about this mass marriage,” asked Mang Ojo to his eldest son.

“This wedding we hold royally, for the total cost of the recipe, let me be with Ranita who will bear it.”

“Bapak strongly agrees. What about the others?”

“For the meal, my restaurant with kak Intan will take over,” replied Nurul flat.

“Good for that Father also agree.”

“Which way according to Zaki and Dika?”

“after they get married, of course they can not be let go of us just like that, what else they have nothing for the future, so for that, for that, I'll make six simple house units for them.”

“Ya, I agree,” timpal Zaki. “And for their living capital, until they can we release, later I will provide for them all.”

“That's great, it turns out you are all golden-hearted, remember the children, while you still have time to spend your wealth in the way of God, you should not hesitate and fear to fall poor, you should not be afraid to fall poor,” clear Mang Ojo with a loud voice.
