The Eternal De Amor

Chapter 3

Since that night, Adnan and Anum grew closer, Adnan always took the time to come to the halfway house where Anum spent time.

Adnan took the role at his leisure to become a sports teacher for children studying at the halfway house.

Adnan's sweat sprayed, the sun burning Adnan's body to make him sweat a lot.

When Adnan was busy wiping his sweat, there was mineral water outstretched on him.

“Diminum mas” Adnan felt noticed by Anum.

“Thank” Anum just nodded then sat away from Adnan.

“Kids here are cute huh, Anum?” added Adnan who took a seat, Anum only turned a glance, then looked back to the front.

“Mas, do not know yet, they can also be small monsters if they are badmood” said Anum while staring at Adnan at a glance, Adnan chuckled at hearing that.

“But I noticed, you really like kids, right Anum?” the red-hijabed woman simply nodded with a sparkling face.

“Only those who have a clean heart without defects, without pretenses, everything they do and say is pure from the heart” Adnan is silent, observing his interlocutors closely.

“Then, is there a reason for me not to like them, Mas?” Adnan shook his head, he was still amazed by Anum's simple words.

“The world is chaotic because of the mindset of narrow-minded people, Mas. Even so narrow, they think of small children as complicated humans” Anum's view looks forward. It's true, there are people who think like that. Stigma is wrong and needs to be addressed.

“While they are present in improper conditions, such as adultery and such, why should they be victims? Can't they also not choose to be born under what conditions?” although faint Adnan can catch the vibration of anger and disappointment from the words of Anum at this time.

“Mas know? There are so many cases of abortion and child neglect in this world, the reason they are not ready even because of economic factors” who does not know? In fact it was already an open secret that was almost considered reasonable. But Adnan was silent, he wanted to know the contents of Anum's head, wanted to know how this woman looked at something.

“People like that sad Mas, his life is only around the world, until he forgets that every living person has been guaranteed his sustenance by Allah SWT, until he forgets that every living person has been guaranteed by Allah SWT, they seem to forget that every thing that happens in life is His plan” Adnan pensive, as well as slapped because often not grateful for the blessings that God has given him.

“Is that your reason for being a teacher, Anum?” this time Anum just shook his head slowly.

“I want to be the first source of education for my children in the future, like a mother who becomes the first madrassa for her child, I want that” Adnan can not stop looking at the shady face in front of him which makes him more amazed by his soft words.

“I want, My children are broad-minded and thoughtful, therefore, I want to guide them with my own hands” Anum raised both his hands, then dropped them back in the lap, then dropped them back, and back to the front.

‘Cita-precious ideals’ Inner Adnan.

“Anum?!” the two humans who had been enjoying the breeze together turned to the source of the sound. That, Husna.

“Eh, there is another Adnan mas, tho” he said to Adnan while elbowing his best friend's arm intending to tease.

“Iya, I now often stop by, is it okay Husna?” Husna who was standing near Anum could only laugh amusedly.

“Oh it's okay Mas, especially if here to accompany Anum teaching children together, it's very I recommend” now it's Anum's turn to step on his friend's feet deliberately.

“Aduhh, uh, this is my leg hurts Anum?!” Adnan turned his gaze in the other direction to fade his laughter, seeing Anum blushing while holding back his annoyance at his own best friend was funny.

“Eittssss, already, you are here aja, chat, and for Anum, Temenin Masnya aja, the business of treating it my bid” said Husna who still obstructs those who want to go to help Adit.

Adnan and Anum looked at each other, but immediately turned their eyes wrongly.

“Udah yes, bye, Mas Adnan nitip Anum yes, if he, jutek just kiss the shoots of his head, Insya Allah will return tame” after saying that Husna immediately ran to avoid Anum tantrums.

Adnan sat back in his place, looking at Anum who was ashamed of him as well as returning to his annoyance at Husna.

“Mas, forgive Husna's words yes, he is indeed nosy” Anum shook his head, feeling very annoyed at Husna now.

“No papa, I am not offended, just a little amused by the presence of Husna, say my thanks to him later, ya” Now Anum chuckles then nods briefly to hear Adnan's response desperately to behave normally.

“If Mas, can you know what his job is? From earlier I mulu who told me” Adnan a little sparkling when Anum started asking about him.

“I only work like other humans Kok Anum”

Anum looked at Adnan with a mocking smile, from the look and that Anum knew that Adnan to having a driver and assistant seemed impossible if he was just a worker in general.

“Why is your response like disbelief?”

“No, well means Mas special worker huh?”

Adnan frowned in wonder, confused by what this woman before him meant.

“Yes, am I wrong, if you are just an ordinary worker and have a driver and assistant it means you are a special worker right?”

Adnan laughed, it turned out that he meant, he was caught lying.

“It was all just the care of Anum, actually I remain the same as everyone, just ordinary people who do not escape from wrong and sin, said pujangga” said Adnan who had started to escape joking.

Anum's laughter just exploded upon hearing that rhyming phrase.

Although still within normal limits, but able to create a strange sigh that Adnan felt, like there were thousands of loads lifted, for a moment Adnan forgot all the things that had previously made his head almost explode.

When consciously observed so deeply by the interlocutor, Anum's laughter stopped, changing with a wrong behavior that can not be controlled.

“Don't look like that, I'm ashamed”

Adnan looked away everywhere, trying to no longer make Anum ashamed of his attitude.

Actually he was also embarrassed to be caught staring at the shady face of Anum long, but what Adnan could do, that face always made his gaze always locked, always wanting to look at him again and again.

Adnan was confused by his feelings this time, as well as his body that he could no longer control.
