Suffering Becomes Happiness
chapter 38

   Then Adit immediately got up from his seat, then continued to step towards the middle of the field. But after that, Adit instead of adjusting the microphone plastered on the microphone support pole in the middle of the field, Adit even then put it aside, to the side, then Adit returned to the middle of the field. All who witnessed the act of Adit became astonished and wondered, what skill will be displayed by the Adit.?? And the astonishment was not only experienced by other students, but also with Icha and his friends, he said, because Icha and his friends themselves are not aware and not planned or notified in advance that Adit will display the talent or skill that will be displayed. Likewise with the lecturers and all the committee in the place they were all astonished, because of the attitude of Adit who removed MICROPHONE from the middle of the field to the side, or moved some distance from its original place.

And so.... Adit apparently will make a surprise or surprise at the event. And indeed the surprise apparently he saved by not telling other students, including the lecturers or the committee, especially to his own friends or his lover" namely Icha.

   After a while later, Adit began to show the skill, namely by starting the movement of the equestrian or horses, which the movement is pencak silat movement. Then Adit continued his movement with a very agile and beautiful. And sure enough.... Adit apparently issued his skill that is doing pencak silat movement. Just contact... The skill shown by Adit makes everything in the area become grounded and amazed, not least with his own lover, namely "Icha" because Icha did not expect, he said, that his lover has a very extraordinary skill and very rarely people have the skill. And what makes Icha and his friends even more grounded, Adit who was previously known by them is a handsome, tall, white, and also smart, young man, and added to the courtesy he has.... Adit himself did not tell or tell about the ability to his friends, even though they were one campus first when he was in "University of Brawijaya Malang." So the question arises in his friends including Icha, that they will ask about it to Adit later after he is finished by demonstrating the skill.

And the incident they witnessed, of course, made his friends at that time become festering at once proud of the extraordinary skill possessed by Adit.

And the sense of pride is not only felt by Icha's comrades in arms, but also felt by om Robert himself. Because after all, the six foster children are his own recruits. So of course the skills shown by them made him very proud and happy. Pride has been seen from the look on his face, since from the beginning Icha showed his skills by speaking in 5 languages. And plus now pencak silat skill shown by his own ponan, namely "Adit" which now demonstrates the ability by showing his skill through pencak silat movement is very beautiful, flexible, flexible, and that's so perfect. In the mind of om Robert himself arises a sense of satisfaction that is to feel himself not in vain to recruit them all including his own puppet was far from the country of Indonesia to America then his pride in philosophy through the movement of endless applause while saying....

"Good....!! "good....!! "good....!!"

   After some time later, Adit immediately stopped his silat movements by paying respect to all who were in that place, by looking down and the two palms were put together and clasped to his chest. Then Adit returned to the original place, which was gathered with his group with a very lively applause from all who were in the place, not least with Icha himself. She unceasingly clapped her hands while welcoming Adit who came to her and her friends, while giving a sweet smile, as a sign of pride for her lover. Then Adit replied with a thin smile to the lover.

And after that the lecturers immediately gave an assessment of the skills exhibited by the sister.

And incidentally in the number 2 group contained as many as 7 students, all of whom consisted of the American country itself. And in the group there are also three boys and 4 girls, meaning that the group is also a mixed group. So after their group was called, then everyone advanced to the middle of the field. Apparently they all showed their skills simultaneously or in groups. And they happened to be carrying two guitars, and apparently they would show their abilities in terms of singing or singing. So just like that, they were greeted with a standing ovation, either from the students themselves, or the lecturers or all the committee.

   After the group or group number 2 is finished showing their abilities, then they are welcome to return to their original place, and back the lecturers give an assessment to them, just like the previous one. The event continued and lasted until midnight. One by one the groups are called to the middle of the field by the lecturers, to give or show the abilities or skills between them. And the skills they showed were different, some were giving speeches like Icha," some were showing abilities with pencak silat movements like Adit," there are also those who sing like the number two group earlier," and some who show in a poetry way," there are also those who imitate the sound of birds," there are also the storytelling," and others. And all that can not be separated from the assessment of the lecturers themselves.

   After some time had passed, the event had arrived at the end of the event, where one after another between groups or groups were called, and all of them had already shown their skills, either individually or in groups. Then after that the lecturers who originally gave or assessed from the performances carried out by these groups, then immediately discussed the night as well . And apparently the decision or announcement will be announced that very night, about who and what number group will be the champions (1) (2) and (3) in the show that night. And sure enough.... After a while later, then Robert as the chairman of the event immediately announced via loudspeakers, anyone in the group who became the champion at the show that night. So all the students who joined the groups, all became tense and wondering, who will be the champion (1) and (2) or (3). And they all hope, that groups of them themselves become one of the champions.

   After a while later Robert then advanced to the middle of the field to announce the winner of CHALLENGE, through the skills exhibited by all of them. So just before Robert announced the winner, Robert immediately told all groups between the students to be quiet and not noisy, and told them all to focus on what he would announce. Then immediately all the students in the area became focused on one point, namely to om Robert who stands upright with MICROPHONE in front of him while holding a paper or note that contains the winner or champion in the CHALLENGE. Shortly thereafter Robert began to announce who was the champion (1) champion (2) and (3).

   After a while later, and in the midst of tension from the students who were waiting for news from the om Robert, that who is the champion (1) (2) and (3), then immediately om Robert immediately tell about the winner in the CHALLENGE. And sure enough.... The first champion was won by group number (1), "the group "Icha, Adit, and his friends." While the champion (2)," was won by the number 7 group of 10 people, and filled by students from America itself. While the champion (3)," was won by group number 15, where the group contained eight students, all of whom were from Australia.

   Then all of the group including the group Icha and his friends who heard the announcement, then just contact.... They immediately embraced each other. They were very happy when they heard the announcement, and they did not expect that their group would become champions at that time.

When Rebecca hugged Anggun, Fitriani hugged Melinda, while Icha hugged Adit. And they did not do it on purpose, because they did it reflexively, because they were so happy and happy at that time. And their embrace lasted so long and so tight that they shook each other to the right and to the left. And it happened because they could not resist the joy and gladness that engulfed them all at that time. Because How not, 6 people from foreign countries who were competing and watched by other citizens, and where they competed were also in foreign countries, that is very expensive for them. So that's what makes them unable to hold the excitement, and they vent it by hugging between their friends.
