Aldo had just arrived in front of the office lobby when Malik contacted him to get Ayu home immediately. Malik's voice sounded worried making Aldo worried. At full speed Aldo turned the steering wheel of his car towards Ayu's school.
And sure enough, the school was very crowded this morning. All the students were seen crowded outside the school unsupervised. Aldo headed straight for Ayu's classroom. Sandra and Melani seem to be hugging Ayu and other class friends seem to guard the classroom door.
Only Ayu's classroom was quiet, the other classrooms were very crowded with the noise they created. Aldo can understand what situation Ayu and Malik are currently facing. Aldo smiled kindly at all of Ayu's friends.
"Miss, hurry and pack Miss's things." Ayu, according to her, Sandra and Melani help Ayu pack her textbooks. "Thank you for taking care of Ayu." Aldo thanked her by lowering his head in front of Ayu's friends before leaving the classroom.
Ayu and Aldo are sitting in the car. Aldo looked at Ayu's face which looked very hard hit. Ayu seemed to hold back her tears. It felt like Aldo wanted to leave Ayu alone in order to cry with satisfaction. But what happens when he is alone, evil lurks in his life everywhere.
"Why do all the people I love suffer! Shouldn't I be here, brother?" After a sudden silence, a question that must have been very painful for him appeared. Aldo did not want to talk, trying to think hard to be wise in situations like this.
"The boss can definitely handle it Miss, don't worry." Just a fake smile that Aldo saw. His eyes cannot lie. "Miss I have a snack in the trunk, will Miss eat?" Ayu flanged immediately.
"I'm not hungry, Al." Ayu looked back at the window with a blank look.
Meanwhile, there was a commotion that could not be controlled in the meeting room. All the students' parents shouted at each other voicing the uneasiness of his heart.
"Replace the principal!"
"Don't hire unscrupulous people!"
"Don't make our children suffer the consequences of their actions!"
"Take that bastard out of this school!"
Foul words and many more bad statements that come out just like that. Malik can not control his emotions because they all also insult Ayu who does not know anything.
Malik shouted asking the parents of the disciples to be patient was futile, they were so emotional that it was difficult to control. Malik against dozens of single mothers is overwhelmed. Finally Malik sat silent without speaking a word. The old disciples slowly dimmed his voice. They watched Malik who was silent.
"Sir Malik, why are you silent." Malik smiled, apparently not behind the yell when facing the rampaging mothers. Quite silent.
"Can you give me a chance to talk?" All of them nodded and some of them answered in a loud voice.
Malik forbids the headmaster from entering because his presence will only add to his anger, Malik is afraid that the parents of the students cannot control his emotions and harm the principal.
"Actually the headmaster with his past can't we protest, do any of us have no past? At least the principal has proven himself how hard work so far until our school becomes the best school in Jakarta." All silence justifies what Malik says.
"But what if this problem affects our children sir." A mother who looks still emotional talk passionate.
"Our schoolchildren are very educated. They are not easily affected by issues that harm themselves. " Malik is still talking.
"Don't underestimate this kind of problem Mr. Malik. We want our kids to learn quietly." Malik knew the woman who had just spoken.
Malik smiled, he began to growl. "What do all mothers really want to say. Is there a solution to the current unrest of the mothers' hearts?" Malik tried to explore the wishes of the mothers who protested.
"Please consider getting one of them out. Save the future of our children Mr. Malik." Malik swallowed his saliva repeatedly. His head was slightly throbbing hearing the request that he was difficult to grant.
"Why the demand is so difficult. They're both very important people to me." Malik spoke softly to himself.
"I'll be out!" All staring at the entrance, Ferdinan stood up and walked slowly into the meeting room. Malik shook his head so that Ferdinan did not continue his words. Ferdinan was already standing in front of the audience.
"I am guilty of my past. It has nothing to do with my daughter. I will immediately make a letter of resignation. I apologize for causing chaos in this school." Everyone was silent at Ferdinan's words. Immediately Ferdinan came out of the meeting room.
"Don't regret your decision principal. You have to sacrifice for the children you have raised. " A mother speaks with pride. All parents will definitely defend their children as they are currently doing.
All of the mothers in the meeting room applauded proudly at the headmaster's decision which was definitely not easy. He had served for decades as the principal until he could raise the name of a school of this size. It must be hard to just leave it.
Malik was finally able to walk out of the meeting room with a relieved heart even though his decision was not very good. Malik immediately headed for the parking lot after talking to the headmaster who was currently happy. Ferdinan was relieved, at least in his life he had sacrificed for his daughter.
Sandra seemed to be arguing and arguing with her mother. Malik approached them and from a distance Malik could hear their conversation.
"Sir Malik. We'll talk later. " Push Sandra's body to immediately enter the classroom. Malik smiled at Sandra who looked sad. Sandra's mother must know who Ayu is. They often spend time together.
"Can we talk for a second?" Malik asks Sandra's mother to follow him. Right now the two of them were sitting face to face with a serious face.
"What is Mr Malik talking about? I have to go to my shop." Feeling awkward .
"Is it not too much to ask Sandra to stay away from Ayu? They're good friends. I know how they love each other. " Malik stared sorrowfully at his feelings. Ayu would be very sad if her friends stayed away from her.
"You'll never know how I've been feeling all this time. Letting my son hang out with a girl I don't know his origins. I was scared every time. What if something bad happens to my daughter!" A natural feeling for a mother.
Malik nodded "I am in charge of Ayu's future. I can't be trusted!" Malik is still trying to convince.
"Don't force me. I don't want my daughter to get it wrong. " Sandra's mom just left. Malik now only thought about what would happen if Ayu found out. Pure matter alone was still kept secret. Now comes another problem that will make Ayu sad.
Malik walked away thinking about Ayuna's happiness. "Sir Malik." Malik knows this voice. Malik turned around immediately. Malik smiled seeing Sandra standing in front of him with her tears breaking.
"Why crying?" Malik hugged Sandra to calm down. He must be very sad, this is what Ayu will feel if she knows the anger of Sandra's mother. "Don't cry, let's face this together." Sandra nodded and immediately released herself from Malik's hands.
"Please don't say anything to Ayu, I don't want Ayu to be sad. " The words were supposed to come out of Malik's mouth but Sandra said it first. Malik is proud they are very good friends. Malik nodded, Sandra immediately left after Malik agreed to her request.
"You waited a long time?" Malik opens the car door and pulls Ayu to sit in the back with him. Malik clenched Ayu's body gently. He wanted to move all the heavy burdens he carried. "All will be well." Malik knows and understands Ayu's heartbreak.
Aldo was very sad, especially the two of them who felt it. Looking compassionately at the two people she cares about. Aldo stopped his car when a call came in from the hospital. Staring at the eyes of Malik who was currently also staring at him.
Aldo pulled over "Boss, I want to pee for a bit. My stomach hurts." Aldo immediately ran away after parking his vehicle. Malik pretended to laugh at Aldo's behavior, even though his heart was very anxious. Malik was afraid something bad was happening.
"Let's go downstairs, let's go get some good food." Malik takes Ayu around the cakes and delicious bread in the storefront.
Ayu did not touch one, but usually she would be very happy when Malik invited her to shop for food. Malik relented, he chose the cakes and bread that Ayu used to eat. When his senses recovered he would definitely be very hungry.
Aldo came out with his face looking calm. Malik knows that's good news. Malik was finally relieved. After paying for the food. Malik decided to go home soon. Not in the mood to work today. Malik will work from home.
The apartment is not usually quiet, the main lobby looks very crowded. Malik did not enter immediately, he contacted the building security to ascertain what was going on.
It turned out that the reporters gathered were looking for him. The news of him marrying an underage girl has already been smelled by the media. Today was really exhausting. Malik decided to go home. Trouble after trouble streak made his body weak.
