The Second Lead Fate
Four

After graduating SMU, Ambar immediately applied for work in a textile factory near his home.He was assisted by a village friend he had known since childhood. Rehearsed. But of course Ratih could not make Ambar work in a comfortable place. He had to be with the warehouse workers who had no experience whatsoever. Not being able to choose a job because of his education, made him work very hard. In addition to the transfer of materials that had just entered, he also began to study other parts. In just six months, Ambar was finally pulled into the cut section of the pattern. He learned quickly again but started to get bored.

Not because of heavy work, but the routine of doing the same thing every day makes Ambar bored. But he couldn't stop working just for that reason. The savings he had accumulated over the course of a year were not too much either. He couldn't hope to get a better job.

"Well, Ambar's deck is now skinny huh?" comment on one of the mother's pattern sections that taught Ambar.

Ambar looked at himself and smiled.

"Yes Ma'am" he answered briefly.

He had never paid attention to his own body all this time. It turns out that his weight dropped a lot. Almost ten kilos. His face now looks more slender, and his clothes began to be a lot more lively. Acne that always bothers the skin of his face also disappeared from when. As it turned out, working in a factory could make him change this much.

Ambar receives a salary tomorrow. Just one million and five hundred dollars already made him very happy. Finally, he could raise enough money to buy something he wanted [most. New phones. His old phone finally breaks down not long after working at the factory, but he keeps Feli and Rea's numbers in his diary first. Home from work, Ambar eagerly went to the HP counter and bought a slightly sophisticated phone. He looked around at his new phone at home and was delighted. Before forgetting, he entered Feli and Rea's cell phone number and then tried to see if the two of them could still be contacted. The call was connected but neither of the two raised. They both must have forgotten Ambar. Sure oes. Almost a year Ambar could not be contacted and contacted.

Ambar is sad and works without passion. In the afternoon Ratih came to the pattern section to meet him.

"Ambar, I have an offer for you"

During one year working in the same factory, Ratih never greeted him at all. They only greeted each other outside the factory. Then, why now did Ratih call him? thought Ambar suspicious.

"Offer?"

"Yes, if you want, you can be moved into administration here"

Actually Ambar did not want to accept any offer from ratih. Not to vilify his own village friends. But there are a lot of rumors circulating about Ratih in this factory. One of Ambar's village friends who did not even graduate from Junior High was serving as a financial officer who did not have a job. His job was only one, accompanying the boss who came to the factory once a week. At first Ambar did not want to believe the rumors, but because he saw Ratih wrestle spoiled on the arm of the factory owner a month ago. Ambar so trust all the rumors that exist in this factory about Ratih.

"What's? Kan there is Lia who graduated from SMK Administration in the sewing section"

"And am I nawarin to you? you want to not?"

Ambar grew even more suspicious as ratih began to let out a harsh tone.

"What should I do?"

Ratih smiled as he thought Ambar agreed to what he had proposed. Though Ambar just wanted to know if Ratih did do "That's it" to work in this factory.

"Later malem we go together. Put on a nice shirt and don't wear a veil"

In Ambar's heart read Istighfar because of what his village friend said. Is it true that Ratih does have a top position in this factory because of it? Not wanting to further find out such a thing, Ambar immediately rejected Ratih's request.

"Oh, sorry. I think I've got this mall event. Mom took me to Budhe's house"

When Ambar wanted to leave immediately from the presence of Ratih, his friend immediately threatened.

"You don't want to get fired"

Ratih passed before Ambar. Instead of being sad because of the threat of Ratih to stop his livelihood, Ambarkecewa. It turned out that women like him and Ratih had to experience something like this just to achieve a good job. Material incompetence turned out to be an important driver in the future that Ambar will live. But he did not want to do things outside of religious norms. He just wants to live a normal life if it is the right way of life.

Feeling increasingly sad, Ambar returned to his large work desk. He began to do work that might soon be over for him until the clock showed the time to go home. Ambar thought he could go home soon but he didn't because Ratih was blocking his way home.

"I've helped you get to work. Now you help me" he said, dragging Ambar's hand toward a car parked in the factory yard. Although many of the factory employees were looking, they did nothing. Ambar refuses to submit to Ratih's wishes and uses his great power.

"Wouldn't. I don't want to. I told you that"

Ambar was still not struggling even though Ratih used all of his strength.

"I don't want to!!"

He threw out Ratih's hand and looked at her with a cruel look.

"Mending I don't work rather than kayak Lo" he said then left immediately leaving the gawking ratih.

Maybe Ratih thought, he was not the one who could simply refuse the request. Wrongfully. Ambar chose to keep dreaming high despite not having the means to achieve it. But he won't give up on money. Not while he could still work with his own strength.

Ambar arrived at the house with a lethargic face, and immediately entered the room. He looked at the phone again and found no messages from anyone. Did Feli and Rea really just forget about it?

"Ambar, if you have returned home to shower continuously ready to pray in the mosque" said his mother from outside the room. Ambar immediately replied because he did not want to make his mother worried.

"Yes, Mom" he said, then came out of the room and smiled at his mother.

After the mosque, Ambar ate with his parents. He was eager to save the trouble between them and train today. However, maybe he will soon be unemployed. Then later he will have to explain everything from the beginning.

"Sir, I think Ambar wants to quit the factory"

Both of his parents were not surprised by the info Ambar had just said. They look happy rather than disappointed.

"Alhamdulillah"

Ha??? Why his father was even grateful when Ambar decided to stop working.

"Are you not disappointed?"

"Why? Father and mother even seneng if you stop"

"Yes, Barb. Work in the factory was hard. I can't wait to see you working there"

Ambar felt touched, it turns out his parents also did not like when he worked in the factory. Though, he thought his mother's father didn't care as long as he was looking for money himself.

"Same mother also wants you to nerusin school"

"What?" ask Ambar at his mother's surprising words.

"Mom has money for you to go to college"

"Son Ma'am. Ambar still want to work"

"If you don't want to go to college, take a course what it is to add expertise" explained his father mediated.

Ambar who was initially uninterested became imagining himself in and out of the course institution.

"What is really sir? Ma?"

"Yes. The money you love for a year is also simple in savings. You can use to buy books, clothes, laptops the same thing"

Though today Ambar thinks that he continues to experience bad luck.it turns out today is his lucky day. Hearing that he had the opportunity to study again made Ambar very happy. He hugged his mother and father in turn. Until he was unaware there was a chat group coming to his phone. A chat group consisting of three people. Felycia, Edrea and Ambar. The two waited patiently for their reply after a year.
