THE POWER OF FAMILY

_ "Sister, I can ask 400 thousand money?" _
_ "What for, Dik?" _
_ "Want to buy new running shoes." _

The sister took the wallet, picked up some money from it.

_ "But the new sister has the money now.Get if you want." _

The money was only half of what he asked for. But how else? The 18-year-old man desperately needs new shoes. To follow a championship. The championship, which he will not realize later, will change his life.

Finally, the money changed hands already.

_ "InshaAllah later I replace this money." _
"Do not think about it," his brother patted his sister's shoulder. _ "Good luck yes, Dek." _

The younger brother nodded weakly. Hugged her brother a little longer. Say goodbye.

The brown-skinned man turned around. Stepping out of the house - or the hut? - woven bamboo walls. The wall looked vulnerable. On various sides covered with newspapers. Many parts of the walls are damaged, until the light of the sun no trouble penetrate the whole room. Do not ask the roof. Same sad with the wall of the house. There is no ceiling, until when the heavy rain comes, we will not doubt that the water will easily soak the grounded floor. Leaking.

_ "Be well there," _ said his brother.

The younger brother nodded. The move is getting away from where to live. Go to the training center, before flying to Finland, far away.

Again, no one thought, that the steps that will be a marker of the beginning of the history of his life, as well as the history of the world of athletic sports Indonesia.

Thursday dawn, July 12, 2018, at 4:30 pm Lombok time, NTB, Baiq Fazilah received video submissions on his cell phone.
|
_ "Sister, I won!" _
Write the video sender.
|
It took some time for Baiq Fazilah to download the video. And after he was fully aware of what he saw, Baiq Fazilah immediately prostrated gratitude. Her heart was beating fast. Her eyes were wet.

_ "Zohri sent a video from Finland via WhatsApp After I saw the video, I suddenly cried and prostrated gratitude." _ Once Baiq Fazilah's acknowledgment when interviewed by reporters.

In the video, it appears that Past M. Zohri, the younger brother of Baiq Fazilah, defeated the favorite American duo sprinter; Anthony Schwartz and Eric Harrison, in the 100m U-20 world championship, in Tampere, Finland.

Emotion quickly rushed over his brother's heart. He remembered a few moments before he left for Finland, Zohri asked for a pair of sprint shoes, because old shoes were not worth wearing. He saw for himself how the hard work of his younger brother while preparing for the championship.

_ "He likes to run alone in the Port of Ward, Practice," _ said his elder brother.

Baiq Fazilah was shed tears when he said,

"And when he practiced it, he never wore footwear because we could not afford to buy him, but Zohri did not demand much, just when he was leaving for Europe, he asked for 400 thousand dollars to buy running shoes, he said. I do not hold that much money, I can only give half of it, whether he can come from where, maybe the help of the coach. "_

Yes, since Father and his mother died, the brother supported Zohri to continue to excel in the athletic world. He is the one who gives the belief that Zohri can be the best.

And we see for ourselves, that belief is now real. Zohri became world champion running 100 meters. Be the best of the best.

Maybe Baiq Fazilah can only give half of what Zohri asked. But inside the woven-walled house of bamboo and old newspapers, he gleaned the rest through the support and prayers that ceaselessly boasted to the heavens. So that her sister was given ease when competing. So that her sister could be a family pride.

However, for God, Baiq Fazilah's prayer was too trivial to be granted. For now, his younger brother not only transformed into family pride, but also became a man of pride all the people of Indonesia.

Yes, we are proud of you Then M. Zohri. Really.
