The Arabic Teacher

Tropikangen Malarindu

Vita chuckles at feeling funny with her acting which she thinks is amazing, to the point that Lala does not even know that it is just an act.

Lala shook her head, she herself was still upset with Vita who managed to trick her to make it look like people were not sane to beg ustadz Dafi to take her to the UKS room.

The movement of the door knob makes the chat to both stop. Vita returned to acting with her face which she made like an oxygen-deprived person.

"Drink this warm tea!"

"Tarok aja there ustadz, now my head is still dizzy," said Vita made Lala nauseous immediately heard him.

Ustadz Dafi went to the office and asked one of the female teachers to make him some hot tea. Feeling guilty, Ustadz Dafi decided to drive it himself and make sure that Vita drank it.

"Thank you, ustadz," said Vita, massaging her temples.

Ustadz Dafi nodded, turning around to leave the room.

"Ustad!"

"Yes, why?"

"What is your Arabic?"

"Eye."

"So Daddy?"

"Pig."

"How could I love you?"

"Anaa uhibopen."

Vita smiled at Ustadz Dafi's answer which made her heart pound even more.

Feeling that there were no more questions from Vita, ustadz Dafi stepped away.

"Ustad!"

His steps again stopped in front of the door and turned his body to look at his interlocutor.

"Anaa Uhibbuka, ustadz."

Ustadz Dafi's face flushed red with the look of his unfriendly eyes. Either out of embarrassment or what, he hurriedly left regardless of Vita's last sentence. Vita chuckled with anxiety at the look on Dafi's face, between anger and shame. Uh, gmueeess

"Lo crazy, Vit!" Lala was in disbelief with Vita's courage to the point without further ado.

"Why did I shoot first?"

"It's not wrong for a normal guy."

"You mean that wetadz Dafi is not normal? Bananas of war are like eggplants?"

"No, that's not what I meant. Yes you know if he is our teacher, and you are his student. Yes, the teacher wants to be with the student."

Lala's words are true, but what cares Vita who has been wet to put her heart on her Arabic teacher.

This morning, Vita felt unwell and decided not to go to school. Damn it, use all pain, so do not know the answer ustadz Dafi.

It felt like forcing myself to keep going, but Mother forbade me.

Never mind, I have advised Lala to watch the movements of ustadz Dafi. Don't let anyone stop other than Vita.

Pain is boring, Vita can only stay silent in his room feeling his bones like they want to collapse. Seeing the new wall clock shows at 9 and will not be long rest hours at school. Waiting for Lala's return it feels really makes Vita careless. Silence without doing anything turns out to make time move very slowly.

A familiar voice made Vita blink her eyes.

"Wake up woy, bedug."

"Eh, what about ustadz Dafi? Is something suspicious?" Vita actually changed the topic of conversation about ustadz Dafi. His curiosity made him impatiently wait for Lala to come to his house.

"But even dumb. What about my favorite ustadz, La?" Ask again.

"Nothing is suspicious. But I'm looking for the teachers tomorrow to look at you."

"Seriously?" Vita's eyes sparkled after Lala convinced her.

Again Vita had to wait for tomorrow to be able to meet with his favorite ustadz. In fact, he wanted to ask her a lot, especially the answer to his feelings.

Lala decided to go home after she conveyed what Vita had been waiting for.

Too bored to be in the room, Vita met his mother who was cooking in the kitchen.

"Mom.."

"Well, don't you sleep?" Ask Rahma's mother without turning her head and still focusing on her cooking.

"Bosen ma'am, the dizzy sleep mute."

"Emmm, Mom.."

"Why cah ayu?"

I don't know where Vita wants to talk from. I feel ashamed to ask this to Mom. Until finally he ventured to ask the love story of his father and mother. Vita was quite curious about what kind of love her parents felt.

"Suddenly it's the story of Mom and Dad. Is this mother's son in love, hem?" Tanya Bu Rahma approached her son and then sat beside him.

Vita looked down embarrassed, Bu Rahma smiled to see her only daughter turned out to have grown into a teenager who is currently in love with the opposite sex.

"It's okay to tell Mom. Mother was also young, had experienced the love of school children," he said smiling.

"Mom not angry?"

"Why should you be angry? Falling in love is natural when you know the limits. And what you're feeling now is that I used to sleep before I met your father."

"Means you often fall in love with a different guy dong?"

Rahma's mother nodded, "Before deciding to get married, I've often been in love, and it's natural, because I don't think it's predictable."

"Yes, real mom, that's unpredictable."

'And so unpredictable was I to love my own teacher, ' he continued in his heart.

It had been two days that Vita felt a sense of displeasure on her body. Plus the skin of her hands and feet gives off red spots. The midwife who examined him stated that Vita had dengue fever. It had only been two days that he had been sick, but to Vita it felt like a year. It is very boring to be at home without doing any activities. Fortunately Lala never absent to visit her friend who is sick without fear of contracting the same disease.

This afternoon, Lala went back to visit Vita with a lot of luggage. He said it was a snack from his school friends. Moreover, when Lala gave silverqueen the care of ustadz Dafi, Vita sparkled eagerly to heal.

"Not all the time, Vit," Lala nodded her head to see Vita hugging and kissing repeatedly the silverqueen chocolate of ustad Dafi.

"Let's wlee.."

"Lo don't know how I make nodong ustadz Dafi love your hand to lo. He said he couldn't come by, so nitipin's brown."

Vita's face turned sour. Painful sentences must be heard, but he really hopes to meet ustadz Dafi.

"La, I really want to be visited by ustadz Dafi."

"I guessed it." Lala put her body in Vita's bed, she instead focused on reading the novel book that was previously held there.

"Please, La! Don't you want to see me heal?"

"Cure people take medicine, not medicine."

Vita raised her head slightly despite being limped. Lala helped him put down some pillows for Vita to lean on. Seeing his gaze that Iba made Lala exhale deeply.

"Please! I'm sick of the kangen trophy, La," said Vita with a pleading gaze.
