Reaching Dreams

Chapter 99

Ms. Sarifah felt awkward with her son's answer. Rahma is a smart girl, all this time she went to college and became an assistant lecturer is not a problem for her. Even he was always excited if faced with a clashing schedule.

Ms. Sarifah did not want to urge her son to tell her the story. Rahma is now an adult and married, so Sarifah believes that Rahma can overcome her problems.

Meanwhile Frans arrived at the campus with a very tight time. He ran towards his class so as not to be late for the quiz. With a breath of breath, Frans entered the class which turned out to have many students sitting in the class.

"Hi, bro! Long time no visible trunk of your nose. Where have you been?" greet Jojo as soon as Frans sits beside him.

"Gue nguli's! Make love people's children." answered Frans.

"Cie who cares for baby food! Not yet?" jojo said as he played his eyes.

"Yet. Just do'ain, let Frans junior be here soon!" frans replied who knew the direction of his friend's conversation.

"Eh, how come I didn't see Chico? It's been a month since he said." asked Jojo curiously.

"I know, I'm busy working so I don't really care about other people's business" said Frans Cuek.

"Good morning, kids!" greet a middle-aged male lecturer with a posture not too high but fat.

"After, Sir!" answer the students simultaneously.

"Focus on college, think about people!" whisper Frans before the quiz starts.

Rahma's condition improved after Frans left the house. Rahma hoped Frans would not go home soon because it would aggravate her pain. Rahma is sick from Frans' actions last night wanting to sleep in Tiara's room.

The trauma came back when Frans touched Rahma's skin again in a closed place. Actually until now the trauma has not disappeared, but Rahma suppressed her fear. Start getting used to interacting with Frans, although it can only be done in the open.

The flash back

"Darling, big brother here can be?" frans asked as she entered Rahma's room without knocking on the door first.

Rahma who was changing clothes to sleep was shocked. When he looked, there was Frans behind him. There was fear in Rahma's eyes being held back.

"Sorry, Brother. Next time, huh? Tonight I have to prepare the material for tomorrow morning" Rahma refused.

"One night only. Promise is nothing. Just a hug, can you? Yea?" frengek Frans is like a child who asked to buy a snack.

"Rahma please, Brother out." said Rahma lirih because she was scared. Even the sweat of a grain of corn had started to come out on his forehead.

Frans did not come out of the room, but instead hugged Rahma and kissed Rahma's lips. Rahma rebuffed because the fear was becoming more and more. Rahma thrashed and broke away from Frans' embrace. Her body was shaking violently.

"I'm sorry." Only that word could come out of Frans' mouth when he saw his wife was trembling in fear.

"I'm going out. You don't have to be afraid." Actually Frans heart is very sick to see the condition of Rahma today. Even though it has been declared cured, it still often relapses.

With a shaky step, Frans left his wife's room.

Rahma was still trembling in fear, she locked the door of her room. Then resting himself on his soft bed, a great fear made him unable to sleep all night. She was afraid that if she slept, Frans would come in and hug her.

Rahma fell asleep when the dawn of the Adhan reverberated.

Flash back off

"Mom, Rahma fucked up first, yeah!" pamit Rahma to her mother who was preparing cooking ingredients for lunch in the kitchen.

"Lho, he said he was sick. Why do you want to do it now? Are you feeling better?" cerca bu Sarifah while putting vegetables in the sink.

Ms. Sarifah approached her son, then placed her palms on Rahma's forehead and neck.

"Isn't it better you rest first, hmm? Work can be completed at any time if your body is healthy." advice ma'am Sarifah.

"Rahma is really healthy, Mom. Now Rahma goes to college, ok! Daagh Mother." said Rahma while passing just like that from before her mother.

"Ck, this kid is so stubborn!" gerutu bu Sarifah while approaching the sink.

Before leaving earlier, Rahma had already contacted Vani and Rio. He asked about the quiz this morning. It turned out that the quiz was postponed next week because the lecturer was unable to attend. Although the quiz was pushed back, it was replaced with a task that had to be collected immediately. So inevitably the students must immediately complete the task.

Rahma went straight to the library, they had promised to meet at the library. They will work on the task together so that it is quickly completed and immediately collected.

"Seriously very willing to compose the thesis." whispered Rahma when she reached the long table of chairs containing Vani and Rio, with books scattered on the table.

"Lo ngagetin!" whispered Vani annoyed.

"Hehehe!" Rahma simply replied with a smile that revealed her teeth.

"Hurry and help us! Lo's name has entered our group. So Lo help me to get involved!" decreed Vani like a princess.

Rio just shook his head looking at the behavior of his two best friends. He continued to work on the task without caring about the surrounding circumstances.

The three of them did the task with complete concentration. So they do not realize if the time has shown at one noon.

"Laper Me!" rio said while stretching his body muscles. He did not realize that he was still in the library.

"Sstttt!!!"

"Ups!" she said softly while covering her mouth with her palm.

"Basic! It's senile." taunted Vani.

"Have gone, let's have lunch, yuk!" take Rahma with whispers.

They also cleaned up the books they had taken from the shelves for reference. They put the book back in its place.

When they finished, they headed straight to the campus cafeteria.

Rahma did not check her phone, but there were many calls and messages from Frans. The phone is in silent mode so Rahma does not hear if calls and messages are coming in. Even Rahma forgot that her phone is in silent mode.

They sat down to bring their own orders. A moment after putting down his food, Rio's phone shook. Rio immediately raised the call that turned out from his best friend, Frans.

"Frans carin Lo! He said Lo had been repeatedly contacted not appointed. Try to call him, let's not fidget!" rio said after he finished talking to Frans via mobile phone.

"Good God, I forgot! My phone is in silent mode, so I don't know if it sounds." Rahma shouted as she noticed her negligence.

He opened his phone and called Frans.
