"Is Gus Al angry?"
Gus Al was silent and kept a small box containing a ring that would be given to Alifa. But it turns out that Alifa refused subtly by telling ummi who kept her.
"Your..!"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Why is Gus Al angry?"
"There's no right for me to upset the deck. Judah is not mentioned anymore. You can go back to the dorm. And happy learning yes." said Gus Al firmly.
"Sorry Gus."
Gus Al did not answer Alifa. He was reluctant to say because his heart was a little disappointed with the stubbornness of the person who had mastered his heart.
There was no response from Gus Al. Alifa moved and walked towards the door.
"I'll excuse you, Gus. Assalamualaikum."
"Mosur."
After Alifa left the ndalem, Gus Al closed the door and laid his body on the living room sofa of his Abi residence. His thoughts were very chaotic because Alifa always rejected what he always said.
**
Meanwhile, Alifa continued to walk towards her dorm room.Alifa's quick steps continued to walk until she did not realize if she hit someone.
Bugh..!
"Oh..!" the scream of someone who fell because of being hit by Alifa.
Alifa was immediately shocked to hear the voice of someone she had already memorized so much.
"Sorry ustadzah, I accidentally." said Alifa while helping the Ustadzah Nia who fell because Alifa accidentally hit her.
After Nia's ustadzah stood up and cleaned her palms that were a little dirty, Nia's ustadzah was no less shocked than Alifa.
"Ustadzah Nia, I'm sorry I was completely unintentional" Alifa said, bowing her body.
"Alifaaaaa, you..!" ustazah Nia also looks confused because the person who hit her to fall turned out to be the most popular santri in Darul Huda.
"Sorry ustadzah."
"Why are you here, Alifa..?" ask ustadzah Nia confused why Alifa is on the road that is not going to the dormitory.
The ustadzah Nia tau earlier Alifa was called to ndalem by the owner of the boarding school. But that was a few hours ago. Now it is precisely the ustadzah Nia met with Alifa not far from the residence of the family kyai Abdullah and not a way to return to his dormitory.
"Well..!" call Nia's ustadzah again.
"Sorry ustadzah." replied Alifa lirih while looking down.
"Where are you from?" tanya ustadzah Nia was surprised by the attitude of Alifa who was quite other than usual.
"I'm from ndalem, ustadzah."
"From earlier?" ask ustadzah Nia wonder.
"Yes." Yeah."
Ustadzah Nia frowned with a brief answer to Alifa who according to Nia's ustadzah is not the true nature of Alifa.
"Alifa why are you?"
"I'm fine ustadzah, I excuse Nia's ustadzah" said Alifa while trying to pass from the front of his ustadzah.
"Wait..!" said Nia's ustadzah while blocking Alifa's arm.
"Alifa, you're going to the Ustadzah's room for a second."
"Sa-I have to go back to the ustadzah dormitory."
"I'll call Arin's ustadzah, so you can get permission and not find it. I'll say you're with me."
"Now come along."
"Good ustadzah."
'Yes Allah complicated all this 'inner Alifa while trying to be ordinary in the presence of Nia's ustadzah.
"Please come in, Alifa..!"
Nia Ustadzah immediately told Alifa to enter his room as soon as they arrived at Nia's ustadzah orphanage.
"Good ustadzah."
Alifa came in and sat on the carpet that lay in the room.
"Alifa.., are you okay?" tanya ustadzah Nia full search.
"God willing I'm fine, ustadzah."
"Why didn't you focus on walking. Is there a problem?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Ustadzah Nia took a deep breath and threw it away slowly hearing Alifa's ambiguous answer.
"I know you were unintentional, but there's a reason you can be unintentional and not focus on your path."
"Alifa, what exactly are you? Is there a problem in the ndalem so that after you get out of the kyai residence you look like this. Is there an Alifa problem?"
Alifa just looked down at the floor of Nia's room. He was confused what to answer with the question of Nia's ustadzah. If Alifa honestly said that she was asked to marry Gus Al of course it would leak to others. Alifa did not want to expose her problem. But, if he was silent without anyone to talk to, of course, it made him very uncomfortable. Alifa was confused as to what to do.
"Well..!" call ustadzah Nia lirih after seeing Alifa just silently silent without a sound.
"Alifa, you're okay, right?"
Alifa gasped at the call of Nia's corpse which shocked her.
"You daydreaming? Actually there is what Alifa, the same story ustadzah who knows iftazah can help you."
Alifa tried her best to refrain from crying in front of Nia's body. This problem makes him fragile. After a while of self-control, Alifa also began to talk to the Ustadzah Nia.
"Ustadzah..!"
"Yes baby..! Tell me if you are ready for the story. Don't mind all the problems alone if you don't want to burden your own heart." said ustadzah Nia trying to make Alifa comfortable.
"Sorry, I am confused what to do. My mind is no longer able to think."
"What exactly happened? earlier when we spoke in the mosque you looked ordinary but after coming out of the residence you changed drastically like this. What's up, son?"
"Ustadzah, if the ustadzah is asked to choose a lecture and marry the ustadzah choose which one..?" alifa asked as she closed her eyes so as not to fall down the tears that had been held since.
"Of course the ustadzah will choose college before marriage. Indeed, what are you asking like that in the nak ustadzah "
"I'm confused about ustadzah, I don't know what to do. I don't know how else to solve all my problems."
Ustadzah Nia gave Alifa bottled water.
"Drink let you calm down. Then tell me what the real problem is."
Alifa also received the drinking water given by the Ustadzah of Nia and immediately drank it until half exhausted.
"Thank you, Nia's ustadzah" said Alifa while putting the bottle.
"You're calm?"
Alifa nodded in response to the words of the Nia ustadzah.
"If you are calm, the story is slowly there is a problem what exactly."
"Gus Al wants to menghitbah I ustadzah" said Alifa lirih.
"What the hell..!" peekuk ustadzah Nia was so surprised.
