The Campus
Sukekh was stuck in the room, the man thought back to what his best friend Renita had said. Some of the words spoken by the woman, some are believed to have been done often, because to save her. The words of the Rector and the foundation had always been such as accusing, and scolding him, and it had a great effect on his psychic. For that, when he was worried about giving a decision, it was unknowingly he often asked employees and lecturers who ventured to him, to directly ask the leader at the top level. Because Sukekh believed to be a Javanese, a proverb "on my back, dead..". But Sukekh did not see how the background of the character of the person he was holding.
"Hmm. indeed some of the statements that Renita said were true, but I still have the shame to admit it. But how did Renita know that much, whether she was looking, or if someone was telling her." Sukekh spoke to himself.
"If you find out, it doesn't seem. Indeed I admit, since I was in office, Miss Renita did do well, and very humble to anyone. Not looking at the status of work, position, and light hands like to help, it is a plus for women. Moreover, basically, the people in UP still have very family attitudes." Sukekh spoke again.
The man's eyes looked empty. On the one hand, the man needs his current position, because after his wife dies, he does need financial support considering his two daughters are already in their teens, Appearance demands, and so on, and other costs are very draining his wallet and pocket. As for now, official benefits have doubled, compared to when Renita took office. So that sometimes feel sorry if losing office, it greatly influences him to take firm and hard decisions.
"Am I just flowing, going with the flow. But it is true what Renita said, I became an official without followers who felt fulfilled their needs because of me, just like I did not pursue Hablum Minallah. The achherat is more eternal, but I also cannot face my own world for the time being." contradictory thoughts flashed in Sukech's mind, as well,
"O Allah guide me, O Allah, show me the straight path. I couldn't be like Renita who cepals ceplos like that, I'd rather act cold, and try to negotiate my way." Sukekh suddenly remembered the Life Giver, the Life Giver, and a little calmness flowed within him.
"I have to focus on myself, and slowly I will listen and do what Renita said. No matter how Renita is my senior, there is no way that woman will plunge me. I'm sure that now that I have to concentrate on completing my studies, my dissertation has been dormant for quite some time, It's time I had to finish all one after the other," Sukekh finally encouraged himself.

Nightfall
Renita ignored the message in the whattapps sent by the Risma employee of BAUK, who because Renita was not present at the meeting, it turns out the meeting will be repeated again Tuesday at two noon. But just a moment, while lying down Renita suddenly heard there was a notification chat message sent via whattapps back. The woman looked at the mobile phone screen, and was seen the name of Pak Adi Vice Rector I UP sent a message to her.
"Jengs..... Hopefully healthy slalu, Jeng I assisted ngajari temen2 procurement grant nggih, besuk at 14.00 saget rawuh nggih, nuwun." Renita sighed as she read the message Vice-Chancellor I had sent her,
Renita recalled, when they were still involved in the same work, between teams that often coordinate. Finally, because of the relationship of superiors and subordinates, and also the relationship of emotional closeness, Renita finally replied to the message, and intended to attend the meeting despite having decided not to talk much, Renita said, if you are not asked to speak.
"Inshaa Allah, but if the funds are above 200 million, can not be engineered sir for procurement.because it must be published to convey the invitation to the auction." Renita's initial words delivered to provide procurement signs.
Not wanting to think about the words he sent to WR I, Renita then went to the internet and did a search about Presidential Decree Number 12 of 2021, government regulations governing the Procurement of Government Goods and Services. After successfully downloading, Renita opens the file and presses Ctrl F to search for tender words. Clearly contained in article 1 paragraph 40, it is said that the procurement of goods above 200 million rupiah, must be done tender process.
"I also read Perpres No 21, just like people have no work.." Renita finally closed the file that has been opened. After turning off her laptop, Renita went to bed.

Next Day
Renita like the usual days, 06.45 minutes has left to leave the house, because there is a class at seven in the morning. The rain seemed to fall and seemed to start rushing, but because if there were no important needs, Renita abstained from emptying the class, eventually the woman left also to go to campus.
"Hmm. this jammed address earlier.if it rains almost everything there is a car, take out the car. The trip, which is usually only ten minutes, can turn into half an hour of travel time." as she started the car, Renita muttered to herself.
The woman took a deep breath, and because she felt it was her duty, Renita slowly started running the car and broke through the rain. When she reached the field, Renita smiled wryly at the number of queues of cars that stopped on the road leading to the field, even though the distance with the nearest red light was about 700 meters.
"If I wait for this car to run, and the traffic jam to unravel, I'll be more than 30 minutes late. I have to find another way, so as not to get bogged down." seeing the condition of the road, Renita finally decided to find another way. Although both will be late to the campus, but passing the east side can still save a little travel time.
As expected, almost half an hour away, Renita was finally able to arrive at the campus safely. Still wearing sandals, Renita put on her shoes in the car, and using the umbrella she rushed to the C building. Renita went straight into the 204th classroom, because it was too late for her college eye clock.
"Assalamu alaikum. good morning.." Renita said her greetings, while taking out the laptop from inside her bag.
"Greetings, good morning ma'am.." Renita smiled at the greetings from her students, and her heart was moved. The schedule was seven in the morning, in a state of heavy rain, but almost all students had come to meet his classroom.
