Single-minded

Abil Muwafaq's

"The virus!"

Vira turned towards the voice that called out to her. Arif walked quickly after Vira. After two weeks more Vira took a college leave. Today Vira came back in, but Arif did not meet with Vira. Because there is no schedule Arif teaching classes Vira.

"Sir Arif!" sapa Vira is friendly, while bowing slowly. Vira really appreciates Arif. As a lecturer, Arif is very smart and good. As an adult in his village. Arif painstakingly educates the children in his village. Vira admires Arif's low self-esteem. The knowledge and intelligence that Arif has. It does not make Arif feel arrogant.

"Can we talk, I want to ask you something. We can talk while walking out of campus!" arif said casually, Vira nodded in agreement.

Vira starts to open up to others. As long as the intention was clean, Vira would open her hands as wide as possible. Arif is not someone else. Vira knows Arif as a lecturer, as well as a devout person. Vira believes Arif knows the boundaries between them. Finally Vira and Arif walked slowly towards the campus gate.

Coincidental or not? Today Arif did not bring a car. He'll pick up someone off campus. Vira never carried a vehicle. Vira always uses public transport. Just to get out and go home from college.

"Vira, what are you going home? Come with me, I'll have my friend take you first. I'll go out with him!" bargaining Arif, Vira shook her head weakly.

Arif nodded in understanding. He understands the nature of Vira. Women who know the limits, will not easily accept the offer to go with someone else. Although Arif does not know Vira, he understands Vira's way of thinking. Including the distance that should be there when they walk together. They both talk without looking at each other.

"Thank you Mr. Arif. Vira has an appointment with someone. We'll meet in front of the campus!" vira said kindly, Arif winked an eye sign confirming the words of Vira.

The two walked side by side, there was a distance separating the two. The distance that Vira and Arif will always keep. So that there is no slander from others who see it. Vira and Arif walked together without looking at each other. The two spoke without thinking about seeing each other. It seems easy to understand, but difficult to do. The distance that Vira guarded when with Arif. But lost to the warmth of Azzam that night. When Vira accidentally embraces Azzam's hand tightly.

"Vira, it's not really my capacity to ask. I have no right to forbid you either. But my heart seems to disagree with your decision. That's why I'm asking you!" said Arif kindly, Vira silently lowered her head. His heart began to feel uneasy. The shadow of Vira's final decision will taste Azzam. It made him afraid to hear Arif's words.

"Say Mr. Arif, as long as Vira can answer. God willing Vira will answer!" sahut Vira lirih, Arif lowered his breath. He no longer cared about people's views. Arif feels right by walking with Vira. Find out the real reason for Vira.

"Why do you want to transfer your college grades? Isn't it still midterm. I also heard, you tried to apply for a scholarship again. What the hell are you thinking? At least as a teacher, I don't want to see my top student decide the wrong path!" said Arif, Vira was silent.

Vira is silent not without reason. He had expected that someone would know of his plan. But as soon as this was all open, Vira really did not expect it. Had Vira been able to choose, she would not have secretly done so. But the complicated relationship between him and the two heirs of the Atmaja family. It makes Vira unable to choose another path. Other than leaving without anyone noticing.

"Sir Arif, please don't ask that. At least you know enough I did. There are many reasons for my decision. Trust me, I'm doing all this for everyone's sake!" vira replied firmly, Arif shook his head in disapproval.

Arif never knew the problem that occurred between Vira and Azzam. But he knows Vira, a woman who will not be defeated by the test of life. Vira will not get hurt and give up facing obstacles. But today Arif saw Vira who gave up losing and relented. Not facing the problems that lie ahead of him.

"Not the best, but a defeat that you admit. A person who knows the faith will not fear the test. He will always try and believe his efforts will get the best results. Not giving up and giving up without trying. What am I deciding now? Not an effort, but a surrender of His test!" said Arif, Vira was silent. He stared at the wet ground.

Vira walked under the drizzle, since the morning the rain fell non-stop. Although it was just a drizzle, the rainwater had soaked the earth perfectly. As cold as Vira's heart, that cold wind pierced into Vira's bones. Both of them were silent playing with their minds. Vira with her heart agitated. Arif with his incomprehension.

"Maybe I give up, because my bones are weak and powerless. My faith and faith were defeated by a sense that should not exist. Two honorable family heirs destroyed the foundation I had built. They made me weak and helpless. Staying away may be the best way, so that I can be the old Vira. Strong will be the test that hits me!" inner Vira.

Tin Tin Tin

"Was your reason for giving up? If so, you are a stupid woman. Look at him being able to look at the world in front of him. Instead you retreat away!" said Arif Lirih, Vira just silently lowered her head while pressing her chest slowly.

"When will you be there? I don't have much time!" azzam shouted with emotion. Arif raised his hand to confirm Azzam's call.

"The virus!"

"Please sir, I can wait for my friend alone!" sahut Vira understands Arif's call. Vira says goodbye to Arif, walking slowly away from Arif.

Arif walked into Azzam's car. He wants to sit in the back. But Azzam forbid it, Azzam asked Nadya to move to the back seat.

"I think we'll go both!" nadya said softly, Azzam smiled cynically at the words of Nadya.

"I went with you just for mom. Don't ever think I'm willing to go alone with you!" said Azzam Ketus, Arif smiled at Azzam's cold attitude towards Nadya.

Tiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnn

Azzam pressed his car horn full of emotion. Arif and Nadya were shocked to hear the sound of a horn. They saw clearly Azzam's anger. Even Arif holding Azzam's hand tried to calm his heart.

"Surge!" yelled Azzam, Arif and Nadya stared at the front of Azzam's car

"Vira, why is it always in my every step?" nadya's heart was upset.

Tiiiiiiinnnnn

"Vira, get on!" abil said, Vira nodded slowly. Abil quickly drove his car. Vira sits on the back seat of an Abil sport bike. Both went far from Azzam's sight.

Braaaakkkkkk

"Just you're angry, Vira won't come back. He began to prepare to leave the city. Now I understand the reason for his departure. It turns out you made Vira weak. If you were jealous of that man. He's Abil Muwafaq Vira's best friend. They are both in the same class. They even sat on the same bench!"

"Shut up!" azzam shouted annoyedly. Every word Arif just made him angry.

"You're selfish Azzam. Vira has the right to be close to anyone? Like you who are sitting in a car with Nadya today. If you're sick, the same thing Vira feels!" arif.

"Accomplish your chance before I reach it. Vira deserves to be happy!"
