Mother to My Nephew

17. College Entrance Exams.

“Nis, Rafa sleeps,” whispered Roland.

Annisa saw Rafa sitting on her lap. The toddler fell asleep very fast. Annisa corrects Rafa's position, so that the toddler sleeps comfortably. The journey from Elly's mother's house to Roland campus takes 30 minutes if it is not jammed. However, because the traffic is quite heavy, it can take 1 hour to get to the destination.

“Aa, late no, huh? The road crept like this,” asked Annisa anxiously.

Roland who was focusing on the traffic density in front of him turned to the side.

“Why? Afraid of being late, huh? Still hunted, just calm down,” replied Roland casually.

Elly's mother heard Annisa's conversation with Roland, then asked Annisa.

“Why, Nis? Is it too late?”

Annisa looked back.

“Not too late, Ua. There is still 45 minutes left, ” replied Annisa.

Before long the density began to unravel so Roland could raise his speed. Slyly Roland drove his car towards his campus.

“Don't hurry, Land!” exclaim Mother Elly.

“Nggak Mah, it's only 40 Km/hour,” Roland replied.

“Iya reduced don't speed too much,” said Ms. Elly.

“You are calm, we will be safe until the destination,” replied Roland.

Within a few minutes they reached the Roland campus. Annisa's getting ready to get off. Roland entered the courtyard of his campus and stopped his car in front of the lobby of the university building X.

Roland turned to Annisa.

“Annisa already know the test place?” ask Roland.

“Already A, in the university Ballroom,” replied Annisa.

“Oh, if the Ballroom is next to this building. There,” Roland pointed to the next building.

“Oh, that one. Yes, Annisa will go there. Annisa get off here,” Annisa said.

Annisa turned her back and extended her hand to Elly's mother.

“Ua, Annisa test first. Assalamualikum,” said Annisa then kissed Mother Elly's hand.

“Waalaikumsalam, be careful, Nis. Don't forget to pray first,” said Mother Elly.

“Iya, Ua.”

Then Annisa extended her hand to Roland.

“Aa, Annisa test first. Assalamualaikum,” Annisa said while kissing Roland's hand.

“Waalaikumsalam,” Roland replied but Roland's left hand ruffled Annisa's hair.

This time Annisa did not protest with Roland because she was afraid of misfortune and was afraid of Rafa waking up. Annisa slowly moves Rafa from her lap to the car seat, lucky Rafa does not wake up. Roland put on the Rafa seat belt, after which only Annisa closed the car door slowly.Then Roland's car drove off the campus. Annisa looked at the car until it was no longer visible, after which Annisa walked to the University Ballroom X. When we arrived at the ballroom, there were many participants who came. Annisa showed the test taker card to the committee on duty.

The Annisa committee is welcome to enter and sit on the bench corresponding to the number of participants. Annisa looks for a bench that matches the exam card number. After getting the seat he was looking for Annisa immediately sat on the bench and prepared to take the test. After a while the committee began to give directions and read out the rules during the exam. After the direction and reading of the order, then the entrance examination of new students of University X began. The committee began to share the exam.

Before working on the matter of Annisa pray first, ask for fluency in

do the exam and ask for the best for him. After that, Annisa did the exam. One by one the questions are read well so as not to be wrong in filling the questions. The exam problem is quite difficult maybe because University X is a prestigious private university, so they are really selective in choosing prospective students. After 2 hours of testing

walking the committee has given a warning that the exam time has ended. Annisa gathered the questions and answer papers she had been working on and Annisa walked out of the Ballroom. In front of the Annisa Ballroom saw someone similar to Roland, that person was laughing jokingly with the organizers who served in front of the Ballroom.

Is that Aa Roland? How come it's here again? The whisper of Annisa in the heart.

Annisa immediately walked away from the Ballroom, but suddenly someone called out to her.

“Annisa.”

Annisa was shocked who called her. Annisa looked back looking for the person who called out to her. Roland looked at her.

“Aa?” annisa asked in disbelief.

Roland paid his respects to his friends and approached Annisa.

“Have finished the test?” ask Roland

“Already,” replied Annisa.

“Can't?” ask Roland again.

“No can, hard,” replied Annisa.

“Times about so can't?” roland said while embracing Annisa's shoulder then walking towards the parking lot.

“Make Aa may be easy, but for Annisa not necessarily,” Annisa said.

“Oh yes, A. Rafa did not cry?” ask Annisa.

“No,” replied Roland.

“Keep time Aa and Ua come home also not cry?” ask Annisa curious.

“Ngak. Anteng play new toys from birthday gifts,” replied Roland.

“Thank God if you don't cry,” Annisa said.

I don't think they've reached the parking lot. Roland opened the car door for Annisa. Annisa got into the car, then Roland closed the car door. Then Roland got into the car at the wheel.

“Now where is Annisa going?” ask Roland and start the engine.

“Go home,” Annisa replied.

“We eat first, yes,” take Roland

“Eat where? Eating at home?” ask Annisa.

“We ate at the cafe,” Roland replied and drove off the car.

“Aa, later searched Ua Elly,” said Annisa.

“Annisa phone Mamah, say if we want to eat outside,” Roland said while opening the car glass and giving parking tickets to the parking attendant.

“Aa aja who called,” reject Annisa.

Roland sighed then gave his cell phone to Annisa.

“Please connect to Mamah number don't forget diloudspeaker,” Roland said.

Annisa searches for Elly's mother's number and calls her.

“Assalamualaikum.”

The voice of Elly's mother said hello.

“Waalaikumsalam. Mah, Roland and Annisa want lunch outside. Can not?”

“Ya, can. Where to eat?”

“Eat in cafe XX.”

“Ya, already , be careful on the road.”

“Iya, Mah. Assalamualaikum.”

“Waalaikumsalam.”

Annisa turned off Roland's phone.

“Tuh, please. Which can't be asked for Rafa's permission. He must have asked to come,” Roland said.

“Iya, deh,” Annisa said while returning Roland's phone.

“Get. Aa again drive,” Roland said when Annisa returned Roland's phone.

They finally arrived at a cafe. Roland turned his car into the cafe. He parked his car in a comfortable place. Annisa just stayed in her seat while looking at the cafe.

“Down, yuk,” take Roland with you to open the car door.

“Aa,” Annisa said while holding Roland's arm.

Roland did not open the car door and turned to Annisa.

“Why?” ask Roland.
