The next day as if he could, Tanteenya Fandi delivered breakfast for Fandi. Very carefully and little by little he opened the door. But he did not see Fandi in all corners of his room.

"Where is he" he said, opening the door wide. Just as the middle-aged woman entered, Fandi who was hiding behind the door immediately slipped away. Aunty who realized that immediately shouted to her husband.

"Maaass... Fandi ran away.." he yelled.

Hearing that Om immediately ran to see. And simultaneously Fandi also ran in the opposite direction so they collided and fell to the upside. Om who has lost power from Fandi can not immediately rise up after Fandi who immediately fled from his Om house. But again his escape stopped when without seeing Fandi hit a passing car.

Fandi fell again and this time he felt enough pain in the chest due to the impact. He held his chest and tried to get up, but he fell back because of a lack of balance.

"Are you okay?" ask someone whose voice is familiar to Fandi's ears. Fandi looked back and was so surprised that the car he hit was his father's car.

"Mrs..."

"Lad..." Fandi again tried to get up and wanted to run away from his father. But Fandi was immediately stopped by blocking his hand.

"Get in the car!" emphatically.

"No, Pa, Fandi has to meet the Rose, He must be worried and think I left him."

"You should leave that girl, Fandi! He's not worthy of you! You are a handsome and well-established young teacher, your Papa is also a respected person, How can you marry a little girl who is not on par with us."

"Lad..."

"Pa pa hasn't finished talking!"

"Listen Fandi! And most of all you have to remember, That girl's behavior is so unworthy, Papa can't possibly let you marry such a girl."

"What's Pa like? Papa doesn't know him yet!"

"What's!? So that means the rose came here?"

"Yes, He came up with all his lies, He said if she was pregnant when obviously she was being stretched does it show if she's a good girl?"

Fandi silently listened as if beginning to be affected by his father's words.

"Fandi, Marriage is not just love between you and her, but more than that, you have to think about how the woman becomes a good wife, Being a mother to her children in the future, If you marry a little girl like her plus with her shameful attitude how will she take care of your household?"

Fandi looked at his father as if confirming what his father had said. His desire to meet the Rose was no longer passionate, Evident when his father guided him into the car, Fandi did not rebel and only followed his Father's orders.

Seeing Fandi who was only silent after he gave his advice, Father again instilled doubt in Fandi's heart so as not to see the Rose let alone marry her.

"Dad only wants the best for you Fandi, Remember you are a teacher what if people know you are doing something that is not commendable to his student, On the underage girl, on the underage girl, Of course it will not only tarnish your good name, it will also tarnish the bad image of a teacher, A most noble work, To educate the children of the nation but to be stained for your actions!" Father purposely said that so that Fandi thinks more about the good image of the teachers.

"But Pa, if Fandi is not responsible, Not marrying Rose is not impossible if Roses will be silent, It could be that he reported Fandi to the police."

"When did Fandi happen? It's been a while, there won't be any evidence to suggest that you've done that to her, after all who can guarantee, After being with you she's not with anyone else, The way Papa knows he's also gonna change men a lot."

"That's not true Pa, Papa know where that news comes from?"

"It doesn't matter Papa knows where you obviously don't fully believe him, Remember what Papa just told you, You're a teacher, Take care of your authority!"

Fandi took a deep breath. He does not know whether he should obey his love or follow his logic.
