The Arabic Teacher

The Arabic Teacher
Denied!!



Four days Vita had to feel boredom in the hospital because of her illness. Now his condition had improved considerably even the red spots on his hands had started to fade. But until today ustadz Dafi has not come to visit, even though he has promised Lala to visit his best friend.


Just a step away from entering her room, the sound of the door's gedor made Vita undo her intentions and immediately see who was coming.


"Ehh.."


Vita was a little surprised as well as surprised to see Lala coming with a breath of ngosan. Lala walked towards the kitchen and drank a glass of water.


"Abis chased what?" Ask Vita curiously. He was about to look out to find out what made his best friend run. Lala quickly pulled Vita's hand and asked her to immediately enter the room.


"What the hell is La, what's it trying?"


"Change school, ustadz Dafi same mom Yasmin want to look lo, Vit. The chunky!"


"Huh?"


"Don't hah heh hoh, hunt Vita, they already in front of your house." Lala said after seeing the arrival of ustadz Dafi from behind the room curtains.


"Gue take what, La?"


"Lo did dress, not want to party. Yeah well," Lala moved from her seat scrambling all the contents of Vita's wardrobe.


"Lo use this!" Lala showed rosegold colored robe that became her best friend's favorite color.


"Gamis, La?"


"A lot of bacots, hunts!"


Not much to argue with, Vita immediately changed her clothes with Lala's choice of robe. There was a sound outside the room of Ms. Rahma welcoming ustadz Dafi and Ms. Yasmin, only those who had not come to visit Vita.


Vita came out of the room with a bright heart to see ustadz pujaan his heart came to visit. Ah, if gini is sick for a long time.


Ms. Yasmin seemed to be smiling kindly, but not with ustadz Dafi who was just silent as if he was listening to our conversation.


"Cepet healed yes, Vit!" Yasmin said goodbye home.


Vita nodded with a smile, but he was a little surprised by Ustadz Dafi.


What the fuck, ustadz Dafi even say goodbye to Mom. That hurts me, ustadz, not Mom!


Suddenly Vita ran after ustadz Dafi who had just stepped away.


"Ustad!"


The owner of the name stopped his steps turning around and looked at the person who called him.


"Wait ustadz! Vita belom salim," Vita forcibly pulled the hand of Ustadz Dafi and kissed him.


Ustadz Dafi was surprised and reflexively pulled back his hand quickly."Astagfirullah, sorry I left first, hopefully anty cepet healed," he said then stepped away in a hurry.


Lala approached her best friend who was acting silly.


"Lo crazy, Vit really dare to pull the hand of ustadz. Ustadz Dafi is not a young man."


"Well why, you kiss my dad's hand. Lo jealous?"


Crack..


Lala menonyor Vita's forehead, the empu stroked her slowly feeling the flick of her best friend.


"Eh, rotten lizard, about dong by the way. You know what, Vit what do I mean?" Vita nodded quickly.


Lala exhaled before she resumed her sentence.


"Lo ustadz Dafi is not a mahram yet, a guy like ustadz Dafi who wants to whichever girls touch that." Only then did Vita nod to understand what was meant by Lala's words there was a point.


*****


The most waiting Vita clock is the time of the first lesson, considering today the Arabic maple they will learn in the first hour of entry. Not about the lesson, but about who taught it.


He had been very patient waiting for him to immediately ask the answer about his sentence at that time to ustadz Dafi. For today there is no waiting or failing, I must clarify the answer to Ustadz Dafi right now!


Staring at his face full of coolness makes Vita feel at home for a long time to observe the beauty of God's creation. Smiles himself, until finally the voice he always longed for was heard.


"Can you please remove the board?!"


A few minutes later,"Ustadz."


The position of Ustadz Dafi who was focused on his dictate book made him not turn his head and did not know who would be willing to remove the blackboard according to his orders.


Hearing an unfamiliar voice in his ear, Ustadz Dafi turned his head, "Why did you come to school, instead of still being sick?"


"The body is healed, Ustadz. It was ustadz who healed me yesterday" said Vita smiling mischievously and then returned to his seat without caring about the gaze of Ustadz Dafi who was like an eagle ready to pounce on his prey.


The first lesson hour has passed, even soon the break bell will reverberate.


Lala invites Vita to go to the cafeteria considering her stomach is very hungry.


"Slow down ogeb, ntar sprain," said Lala who saw Vita eating in a hurry.


"Gue had to clarify Dafi's ustadz answer, La," he replied making Lala nod.


"Lo wait here! Wait for me to come back, okay?"


"Vit's spirit, I support you!" Vita held out two thumbs and then walked away from the canteen.


Vita searched for the existence of Ustadz Dafi, but after almost ten minutes he only found out that ustadz Dafi was in the library.


With a quick step Vita approached his favorite teacher for an answer that he always waited for.


A handsome ustadz was looking for something on shelves full of books.


"Assalammualikum, dear," he said smiling.


"Astag."


"Salah ustadz, should waalaikumsalam not astagfirullah," said Vita.


"Sorry, I was surprised. What's up?"


"Ustadz already has the answer, I'm waiting for you."


"Answer? What answers?"


"Ituloh anaa uhibopen sentence."


Ustadz Dafi this time stopped his activities who were looking for a book. Since Vita's arrival to see him, he has not been too focused on his question. Now, he stared at the focus of the woman in the gray uniform who was none other than his own student.


"Anty was my student, and I was her teacher. It is not good for a student to chase after his teacher just out of awe. Anty's journey is still long, the school is pinter first yes!"


"Will Ustadz accept that I'm pinter?"


Ustadz Dafi shook his head, "It is not yet time for a student of her age to think about the heart."


"So ustadz refused to date me?"


"Challenging for me to date, in Islam dating is also forbidden, only ta'aruf is allowed."


"Well, we are ta'arufan, how?'


Ustadz Dafi shook his head again as the answer. This heart feels painful, rejected it turns out to be painful huh? As much as possible Vita is strong to hold a tinge of clear liquid that has been pooled in her eye sinks.


Vita walked backwards, people said, it is not good to part with walking on her back. One of them will feel hurt.


"Tomorrow I will come again for the same nanya ustadz whether I have deserved it or not. Don't turn away from me yes ustadz, I'm ready to wait! Waiting for ustadz to receive my love!" He said while walking backwards.


After exiting the library, Vita ran to meet Lala who he had left in the cafeteria.


Bruck..
