A Wound

Chapter 2's

"What's up, sir?” ara asked as they were in the lecturer's room.

“Sit down first,” Bima's orders let Ara sit in the chair in front of her desk. Initially Bima wanted to take Ara to the cafeteria to talk, considering what she was going to talk about had nothing to do with teaching and learning activities. But he abandoned his intention because he did not want other students to think that no-no.

Bima momentarily cleared her throat before starting her speech. Somehow he felt nervous for a moment after Ara sat himself before him. “Late week tomorrow do you have any busy?” he asked with a flat face, trying to cover his nervousness face to face with the girl he liked.

Bima has indeed liked Ara when she first taught at this campus 6 months ago. At that time Ara's class was the first class he filled to teach.

That day Ara was late because her father's car tire deflated, as a result he was not allowed to attend Bima's course during three meetings. Unlike the other lecturers who do not care about the presence of students, Bima is more disciplined with it and really does not like the students who enter the class as they please. Although famous for being friendly, Bima remained firm while teaching.

Not accepting the decision of Bima who according to him did not believe the reason, Ara continued to follow Bima and pleaded with the lecturer to be forgiven and allowed to follow the eyes of his lecture.

Seeing the spirit of Ara who kept begging even to flatter her physique, making Bima feel funny, she even felt that the behavior of the girl was so sweet.

And after a few days of getting such treatment from Ara, Bima admitted to herself that she had fallen for the girl. But Bima never dared to express his feelings. In addition to prestige, he also did not want to interfere with Ara's learning process, he wanted Ara to focus on her education.

“It looks like nothing, sir,” replied Ara after a moment of thought. “What's up, sir?” tanyakanya.

Bima stacked her two hands adrift on the table and slightly advanced her body, “Can I ask for your help?”

“What help, sir? If I can Insya Allah I will help.”

“Can you accompany me shopping?” tanyanya doubt.

“Ya?” Ara fused her eyebrows together, still unable to grasp the intent of the lecturer's words.

“I want to ask for your help to accompany me to buy a gift for my friend who is going to have a birthday. It just so happened that my friend was a woman, and I didn't really know what a woman needed, and I didn't have any friends I could take with me, so I asked for your help, too,” details.

Ara was a little surprised by Bima's request, from so many students, how could the lecturer ask for his help.

Seeing Ara who was just speechless like she was thinking, made Bima feel bad about her request. “If you can't do anything either. Do not make it a burden, this is not a request of a lecturer,” he said smiling, although in fact he would be very embarrassed if Ara refused his invitation.

“Could be, Sir. God willing I can,” replied Ara. Although still a little confused, he tried not to care.

Bima smiled slightly even though she actually wanted to jump and scream in excitement at Ara's reply. It turned out that his efforts were successful, not in vain he devised this plan overnight. Making an excuse to buy gifts just for the road both turned out not to be a bad idea. He got the idea from one of his friends.

“Thanks in advance. Tomorrow I will pick you up at your house, all asking your parents for permission,” he said widening his smile. He was unable to cover his happiness.

Ara was a little stunned to see the handsome face of Bima who was smiling. For the first time he looked closely at his lecturer, and it was fitting that Miya so admired his lecturer, “Truly handsome,” bantinnya, and somehow suddenly his heart felt racing faster.

“I.iya, sir equally,” the answer is a little nervous. “If there is no more excuse me, sir wants to go to class,” he said avoiding the eyes of Bima.

“Mmm one more,” said Bima, making Ara look back at the lecturer. “I don't know your home address.”

“Ah Yes, Sir.” Ara quickly wrote down her home address, then said goodbye to Bima.

“One more time, thank you yes..Dara.”

“Sipp, Sir!” Ara raised her finger which formed a symbol okay and immediately ran out of the room. Somehow he felt something was different the last time Bima mentioned his name. Maybe because Bima's voice was slightly softened, I don't know, which was clearly able to make her face blush and her heart rate more and more unreasonable.

After meeting Pak Bima, Ara entered the class and sat herself on one of the benches.

“What business did Pak Bima call you? He expressed his feelings for you, right? What are you answering? Did you accept it? and mmm...” Arumi managed to silence the mouth of Miya who just kept asking without pause.

“Can't you ask one-one?” arumi was upset. “Awwww..why did you bite me?” yelled Arumi who quickly pulled her hand and wagged her in pain.

“You are too chatty,” said Arumi who was still grimacing felt the pain in her hand, then turned to look at Ara who had continued to be silent without feeling disturbed by her debate with Miya. “What's with him?”

“I guessed it, Mr. Bima must have really expressed his feelings. Look at his behavior, strange. He must be worried,” guess Miya.

Prekk..

“Astagfirullah!” screeched Ara, as Miya struck hard the table in front of her. “What are you doing? You surprised me.” Resenting.

“What are you thinking? You don't even care about us. Are you unaware of our whereabouts?” ask Arumi.

“Who is not aware of your existence? What ghosts you are,” replied Ara origin.

“Then, what business does Pak Bima look for you?” tanyanya.

“Yes, Mr. Bima expressed his feelings for you, right?” continued Miya who was no less curious.

“Ha! Ngaco you,” Ara replied quickly.

“Who is nervous, you're the only one who never realized that all this time Mr. Bima has always been watching you,” denied Miya.

“Then what?” ask Arumi again.

At first Ara did not intend to tell about Pak Bima's request to his two friends, because he did not want the two to misunderstand. But seeing the two who seemed like they would not stop asking about it made him unwillingly tell them everything.

“Why did he ask for your help? Are you guys so close?” ask Arumi to investigate. According to him, it is very strange that Mr. Bima suddenly asked Ara for help for personal matters while they were not so close. Yes, unless both of them are close without her knowledge. Or maybe Mr. Bima really likes his best friend, and is trying to approach.

“No. I don't know either, he said he didn't have a girlfriend he could ask for help with, so he asked for my help.”

“Ooh, maybe the birthday is her lover,” guess Miya.

“Really?” ask Ara quickly.

“I only guess, because it is impossible for a man as handsome as Mr. Bima not to have a lover.”

“Yes too yes,” replied Ara uninspired, then dropped her head in the fold of her hand on the table. Somehow he felt unhappy with what Miya said, maybe because he started to put his heart on Bima. “Stupid!” His inner.

Arumi squinted at Ara's behavior, “Why don't you get excited like that? do you not like it the same Mr Bima?”

“What!”

Ara gasped at Arumi's words and quickly took her seat. But he had not been able to answer the question of his best friend, the entry of a lecturer into the room made everyone take a position sitting on their respective benches.

“Huffff,” relieved Ara. At least he no longer needed to answer Arumi's questions.

But Arumi who was sitting opposite Ara just kept staring at his best friend, as if asking for an answer. Seeing that, Ara quickly threw her gaze towards the lecturer who started opening the meeting that day.

“Do I like Pak Bima? No, this should not be,” his inner self while shaking his head.
