The Story of the Children of the Juragan
106. Disillusioned
Now everyone is gathered in the living room.
Due to entering Maghrib time, Natalie and her husband had permission to pray first. Wulan also took part in praying.
After completing the prayer, Wulan again repeated the intention of his arrival with his family.
And that's when Natalie really believed what the beautiful girl said in front of her. Natalie invites her husband to respond to Wulan's intentions.
The man explained patiently to the Wulan family. Sometimes it seems that grandpa asked him. He also answered as best he could.
The old couple easily accepted the explanation from the person he just knew.
Long enough they had a conversation, until the time of Isya' prayer was present. They take a chair, that tomorrow afternoon will be to the mosque together. To perform sacred rituals like the Wulan did first.
The Wulan family also said goodbye to home. They shake hands and hug each other like brothers.
"Thank you, you've brought us together with people as good as Natalie" Grandma said as she was in the car.
"Sama-sama. Wulan also thanked, because the grandma supported and even followed what Wulan did. Wulan was very afraid to take this path."
"It's all fate. We should be more grateful."
Wulan nodded with a smile in response to her grandmama utterance, then hugged her tightly.
"Grandma, are you going to tell Daddy this?" suddenly the girl remembered her parents.
"of course. Because grandpa wants to always be together gathered in the paradise of Allah." said grandpa quickly, making Wulan very relieved.

Time passes so fast. Without feeling the day is back in the morning. When Wulan had left for the office, Leon stepped on the fence towards the granda house.
The man impatiently wanted to know what the old couple had done, when he learned of the actions of his granddaughter who was considered to have crossed the line.
"For Leon." they replied with a smile as well.
"How's grandpa, have you done anything to Wulan?" curious Leon asked.
"Already." replied the couple compactly, making Leon review a sneaky smile.
"Oh yeah, what is grandma? Leon was very curious. It must have been his grandpa and grandma scolding him all out. As long as you know grandpa, all this must be because of the men who were close to Wulan while in Indo. Because om Marquez did not accept if Wulan had a relationship with him, so Wulan was told to move here. And Leon thinks it's the right decision." Leon said at length.
"Is it really ma, pa?" added again.
"Yes." reply the two compactly accompanied by a nod.
"Keep the grandpa plan and what's next grandma?" asked Leon curiously again.
"We'll follow what Wulan did." said the grandpa steadily, making Leon round his eyes in disbelief.
"What! Try to repeat again. Fear Leon heard wrong." Leon's face grew serious.
"You didn't hear wrong. We'll follow what Wulan did." Grandpa repeated again.
"Ta_but grandpa...."
"Everyone has the right to determine his or her life path. We cannot force. Including us who can't force Wulan. And Wulan did not force us. All this is pure from within each other's hearts."
"But grandpa, aren't you afraid that Marquez will be angry that you two can't take good care of Wulan?"
"Who said we didn't take good care of him? We take very good care of him. Since Wulan lived here, he never once went out with men. If we go out, there must be us too, right? Leon, stop instigating us. Let this be the affairs of the granda family. I hope you can understand all of this. Now come home soon, your papa must be waiting for you."
With a look of annoyance, Leon went home. He hopes to get good news, but quite the opposite.
