My Mother's Tears
Part 1 Family of Philanthropists

At the eastern end of the island of Java, in a village far from the city crowd, lived a wealthy merchant who was very generous. His generosity made his name known to all corners of the country.

People often greet him as Kanjeng Ningrat. Because indeed, Kanjeng Ningrat is still a descendant of Ningrat, the son of blue blood.

From his wife Diajeng Ayu Kedasih, Ningrat had two children. His first child, a man named Arya di ningrat, with the aim that later he has a good nature and good manners.

Meanwhile, his second child was a woman named Roro Kedasih. That she may have a gentle soul and a noble heart like her mother.

Over time, they grow up, but they have different personalities. Arya has a soft soul and generous heart, Arya likes to help people who need energy and mind.

As for Roro being affectionate, he has a rough personality and is very miserly. It is very different with Arya.

Once Arya called her father, because according to him, Ningrat was already worthy to continue his father's business in trading.

“What's up, Dad! why did Dad call me?”

“Arya, if you pay attention all this time, you are increasingly talented in continuing the business of Dad, now Dad is old, Dad wants to rest in managing all the business that is starting Dad. I want all that effort you're the one who continues it.”

“But, Dad! I don't feel like I'm capable of that yet.”

“If not to you, then to whom else will I hand over all this responsibility, you see your brother Roro, he just squandered the money just his work.”

“Then Dad says, I'll obey everything Dad says.”

“Good son, but remember one message Father, do not ever be arrogant and miserly, for all these treasures, are but a mere deposit from God to us as a low servant.”

“Good Dad, Dad's message I definitely remember always,” Arya replied in a soft voice.

“Help everyone who needs your help. Do not choose a view, whoever the person, whether he is rich or poor,” explained Ningrat to his son.

“Good Dad, that message will always be remembered,” Arya replied in a soft voice.

“At this time Dad is old, so is your mother, I want you to get married soon. Find a wife you like and who deserves you. I won't forbid who you marry, as long as he's one of our faiths and beliefs."

“But Father?”

“Dad also will not make a barrier in your relationship, even mekipun him from the bottom. Because according to Father they are all the same, only his faith makes a person different with God.”

“Yes, Dad! I understand what Dad means. I will try to please Father and Mother,” replied Arya while asking permission to leave her father.

“Remember, it is Tahajjud prayer, that Allah may give you guidance.”

“Alright, Father,” Arya replied quietly.

“Arya, looking for the wife, is not as easy as turning the palm of the boy, the soul mate is in the hands of God. If He has not willed, your soul mate will not come to you, whatever the reason, so be patient, wait sincerely and trustfully.”

“Good Dad, thank you for all the advice you gave.”

“Good, you are indeed a obedient child, I am proud of you, son,” Ningrat said as she praised the morals of her only son.

Days passed, revolving along with the time that continues to pursue it, Sunday has now changed with the month, the month of stringing with the year, the year goes properly, and the year goes well, there is nothing wrong with the passage of time, everything moves according to the predetermined destiny of Allah.

Likewise with Arya, every day the results of the efforts he digelutinya increasingly rapidly. In accordance with the will of his father, Arya always share the sustenance of everyone, the generous nature that he has, certainly can not be separated from the upbringing of his Father and Mother.

Because they always galvanize the personality of their children. Must be so, it is very different from his sister Roro kedasih. The success achieved by Arya made Roro jealous and hurt his brother.

Roro does not want his Kang mas always get more attention from his Father and Mother, as well as from people close to him. Roro always looks for gaps in Arya's shortcomings and weaknesses, to be used as a complaint to his father and mother.

But since Ningrat and Ayu were wise and virtuous parents, she always responded to her daughter's remark, as an input material to consider first.

The more ugliness Arya stirred Roro, the more it was smelled by Ningrat the vices that were veiled in his daughter's heart. It was responded by Ningrat swiftly. By marrying Roro to a young nobleman from across the land.

Besides the man was rich and handsome, he was also a good old man. Roro did not refuse the match, she accepted it with pleasure. The wedding ceremony was soon.

Although fairly rich and noble descendants, but Ningrat held the marriage of his daughter in a simple way. Only the lower classes were present at the party, this is what makes Roro even more hurt, to his Father and Mother.

Roro wants his wedding party to be organized in a festive and luxurious manner. He also wanted people who were present at his party to be only rich and respected people. But the truth is not like that.

NIngrat and Ayu do that of course there is a purpose, Ningrat wants a man who marries his daughter to accept all the shortcomings and advantages of his daughter, must live with wealth, but still be spirited and simple-hearted.

After the wedding was over, Ningrat sent her daughter to a remote village, so that Roro could improve, and realized that all the wealth exhibited so far was not hers, but it is God's care for his family.

In that village, Roro lived a very simple life, there was no more treasure that he could be proud of the surrounding population, Roro who was famous for being rich, had now become a commoner, he said, blend in with the surrounding community.

However, Roro is still arrogant and haughty. Sometimes the neighbors sneered at her, everyone was mocking as Roro tried to tell her who she was.

“Udahlah, Ro. If you are the son of rich people and noble people, why live poor like this?” ask Diah to know.

“True it! the rich man must have lived in a luxurious building, lived well. Want to eat well just ask, then people will come to serve us, but the reality is not like that, right? hahaha!” rita timpal.
