Curious Taste Haykal



"How was your first experience teaching Kanaya's class? He's a great student, isn't he?" silvi asked, he came to bring a cup of coffee for Haykal.


Haykal looked astonished. She wondered why Silvi should bring up Kanaya's name? The real hijab student impressed him. Very good student in his class. Haykal confused to answer how? Silvi's question is actually easy to answer. But Haykal felt it was too early, to praise Kanaya's cleverness. Kanaya is smart and talented. Finally Haykal chose silence, Haykal sat down while leaning his body on the sofa.


Haykal and Silvi live in the same house. Before Haykal finds a home, he will temporarily stay at Silvi's house. Her cousin is on leave to teach, because she is about to give birth. The cousin who made him teach and eventually got Haykal to know Kanaya. The only person who starts to realize Haykal's interest in Kanaya. Although admiration will only be wishful thinking. Kanaya is a student at her school.


Silvi saw the look of Haykal's amazed face, the figure of Kanaya. Haykal's gaze when he looked at Kanaya, looked different. Compared to Haykal's gaze, when staring at another woman. The first time Silvi sees Haykal is attracted to a woman. As long as Silvi gets to know Haykal, she is quiet and does not talk too much. His appearance was always neat, never Haykal behaved recklessly. The handsome face he has, is able to make a woman interested and fall in love. Only Kanaya seemed to not care about Haykal's good looks. Kanaya may not even want to know Haykal.


"Why should we talk about Kanaya? I feel like he's just like any other kid. Nothing special. It's just that his appearance is a mess. A little surprised me, because all women want to look neat. Only he seemed to be proud of his appearance!" Haykal said coldly. Silvi smiled looking at Haykal's way of speaking. Seen an annoyed tone in the coldness of Haykal's attitude. Silvi could feel, Kanaya's appearance plaguing Haykal's conscience. A sense exists, when we keep talking about someone's ugliness. True hate and love are thin, until we can not realize. Love is present and considers it only hatred.


"I'm not wrong, you're getting attracted to him. Kanaya may be messy and indifferent to her appearance. But his heart and mind were clean, he was always concerned about others. The intelligence is above average. He was able to get the best grades, even if he didn't take your class. Kanaya girl is full of surprises and mysteries. You don't know him completely. If you knew him, you would be both surprised and amazed!" Silvi said casually, while sipping coffee in her hand. Haykal was silent, only a few days he knew Kanaya. Haykal felt his world had changed. Haykal feels Kanaya is not only the perfect girl, but the Kanaya family is full of affection. Haykal is lucky to have known the Kanaya family.


Haykal scrunched his forehead in disbelief. Silvi gave a magazine. Look at the cover of a magazine that shows a pair of successful entrepreneurs. Haykal increasingly did not understand the direction of Silvi's conversation. It's like Kanaya's not just any woman. Although Haykal actually already knew the Kanaya family. Haykal chose to pretend not to care, so that Silvi did not suspect the taste of Kanaya. Haykal recognizes the great and successful Kanaya family. Family education that deserves thumbs up. Kanaya is a very special and proud woman. Haykal acknowledged that, even if only in his deepest heart.


"What do you mean? Who are they and what is their relationship with me?" Haykal said confusedly, Silvi pointed towards the magazine. He asked Haykal to open every magazine in his hand. Haykal tries to follow Silvi's direction. It was as if he had never met the Kanaya family.


"They are both parents of Kanaya Fauziah Abimata, your unique student. A wealthy and beautiful family in this city. Kanaya is their family's only daughter, but she seems to have an older brother. Their family just moved to this country. Both of his parents were born into a distinguished family. Almost the entire Kanaya family is in the business world. Maybe, if you could get to know Kanaya more closely. You can learn business from them. Kanaya always tries to make trouble in school. But the school will never be able to get it out. Never mind taking classes, sometimes Kanaya is lazy to do the task. Kanaya comes to school just to help the lackeys. Until one day, Madam Dewun came. He accidentally sees Kanaya's free attitude. At that time, without further ado Madam Dewun would bring Kanaya home. He had asked Kanaya to be expelled from school. Kanaya will enter the boarding school. From then on, Kanaya had always been diligent and obedient to all the teachers!" Silvi lirih said, sighing deeply.


Haykal silently listened to Silvi. In Haykal's heart there is a curiosity to know Kanaya further. But he tried to cover up all his curiosity from Silvi. Haykal did not want Silvi to be convinced of his opinion. He tried to cover his concern for Kanaya with his indifferent attitude. Kanaya is no one else, she's the sister of her best friend Rafan. There will be trouble if Rafan realizes his feelings for Kanaya. Haykal could lose a friend forever.


"I wonder how influential Kanaya's parents are? Until the school cannot crack down on Kanaya!" Haykal said loudly, as if annoyed at Kanaya's attitude. Silvi's own smile saw Haykal who was beginning to be curious about Kanaya's story. Silvi is convinced that Haykal has become fascinated with Kanaya. But Haykal is arrogant to say it and there may be other reasons that hamper the taste of Haykal for Kanaya.


"Both of his parents, one of the donors remained in school. Those who always give scholarships to high achieving students. Both of Kanaya's parents have sincere hearts like Kanaya. The reason that keeps Kanaya in school. With a promise, no child will be out of school due to lack of fees. Kanaya gives light to her underprivileged friends. Kanaya deserves to be happy, like she always gives happiness to others!" silvi said, Haykal nodded in agreement. Haykal agreed with Silvi's words, because he had seen for himself. How kind and sincere Kanaya is to each other.


"Kanaya is a unique and mysterious person. His indifference and disorganization showed, how unique was he? As unique and as good as Kanaya. One thing that disturbs my mind and my heart, the intelligence that is hidden in his attitude. Like the science written in a shabby book. I don't know what else is in him? The more I know about Kanaya's persona. The more I want to know him, a student who always makes trouble. But behind all that, there is a very noble intention. Kanaya Fauziah Abimata, a beautiful name and hopefully accompanied by a beautiful personal as well. May my curiosity be only between the teacher and the student, stay that way and nothing more!" Inner Haykal, while nodding affirming Silvi's speech. Haykal began to realize his curiosity in the figure of Kanaya. But Haykal was unable to express it. Rafan his best friend would never agree. Kanaya is still very small.


"Here you go, I'm tired of hearing you talk about Kanaya. I'm going out to meet Azzam. He's going to race cars. I'm gonna be home late at night. If Azzam is willing, I'll ask him to stay here!" Haykal said, Silvi nodded in understanding. Haykal walked away from Silvi. It was clearly Haykal who switched the conversation. Silvi could guess, Haykal was too afraid of falling in love with Kanaya. Differences in age and status that might make Haykal unable to admit the taste to Kanaya.


"You're interested in him Haykal. May there be a way, that you may unite. If only, this was just curiosity. At least, I am happy to see your heart touched by the indifferent attitude of my little disciple Kanaya!" inner Silvi, while looking at Haykal's back away.
