Our Little World's
3. Aspires
Maryam saw Joseph quickly doing maths. He has just finished his first two problems.
"Ajarin dong" said Maryam.
"which one?"
"number 3, 4, 5 "
"here"
Joseph taught Mary quietly and clearly, Mary understood immediately.
"okay I tried to do the number 6 myself"
Yusuf nodded.
"hahai finished until number ten.easy turns out" kicked Maryam happy. Joseph smiled while bowing.
During the break, Maryam opened her lunch. Joseph saw it, "wow bring the provisions"
"yes, let the pocket money" replied Maryam.
"tomorrow I'll be too"
A long-haired student approached them.
"Hay Yusuf" he said.
"Jamal, yuk canteen" Yusuf stood up and grabbed Jamal and went out of class.
Maryam held back a laugh while chewing her food. Maurin glared at Maryam.
"Heh Maryam, don't bother you to talk to Yusuf often, you become so deket with him" said Maurin.
Maryam hurriedly swallowed her food, and spoke nyerocos.
"heh Maurin, all the girls in this class also often talk to Yusuf" said Maryam while pointing to all the students in the class.
"yes, you are not considered to be the same Joseph. He is uncomfortable with you" said Aulia who sat in front of Maryam.
"Hahahah, his love claps one hand. No shame what a girl is chasing" Mina was satisfied to laugh and say nyinyir.
Maurin is upset and goes straight back to his class.
The dzuhur time has come in. Maryam got up and cleared her provisions. While stepping towards the door, one by one the table he passed by he clapped softly.
"Solat, pray let's pray"
Salwa's standing up, "ayo Mar"
Salwa took Maryam's hand. Joseph and Jamal had just come from the cafeteria. Jamal took Maryam's hand just like Salwa's.
"uh, can't be. not muhrim" Maryam jerked her hand to let Jamal's hand loose.
Joseph and Salwa laughed.
"the solat prayer of you would-be priests" said Maryam as she passed away.
"Go to the mosque aja yuk" said Yusuf to go to the mosque.
After the prayer Jamal took Joseph to the roof of the school. The usual place they hang out when they are on break or after school when they do not want to go home.
"have not been here for a long time" said Yusuf.
"yes, Burhan same Surya entered the superior class so rarely here"
"hmm" Yusuf nodded.
"Suf, what do you think of Maryam?"
"yes"
Joseph looked at his friend who was looking down at the street.
"She's unique suf, unique girl"
"yes, wear a veil but behavior is ambiguous"
"but you don't see every time you go to prayer he's got to tell everybody to pray. Also, he had a sad look behind his cheerfulness of suf" Jamal said.
Joseph knew his best friend had met many people with various traits, because he often moved house. His father was also a soldier and his mother was a psychologist.
"Everyone has their own story" Yusuf said.
"sufferer, aren't you interested in him?"
"no"
"i'm just interested"
"i was expecting, ah you're everywhere by the way, just tell me you're interested"
"hehehe" Jamal grinned.
"turn back to class" Yusuf said as he left.
"i'm afraid you're interested in him too" Jamal said as he walked.
"ngga" Yusuf was sure.
