"Al university we hold a race, I feel like I want to follow the races again like before"
"Had you ? did you often enter the race ?"
"Often, even almost every race I win. Do you remember all the trophies in my house ? the one in the closet. That's all my trophies"
Alya recalled, there were indeed many trophies that filled her family room. Trophies from various branches of academic and non-academic competitions. Alya never thought to ask her every time she visited her house. Alya thinks it's her sisters' cup.
"Then follow. I will support you" Alya replied with enthusiasm
"All right, I'm going to the debate race. I have to study and find as much information as my material later. With the prize money later I can help my parents" said Kaffa with enthusiasm and hope
"Yes right. If you need my help, I'm ready to help whatever you need" Alya said with a smile
Cuppp
Seeing the beautiful red roses on Alya's face, Kaffa just floated a friendly kiss to her lips.
"Thank you for always helping me"
Alya's heart certainly floated filled with flowers.

The expected day arrived. The campus became very crowded due to the arrival of participants from various other universities. Lectures are also available because the lecturer is busy participating in the success of the competitions. Including Alya's class that day off.
Of course Alya will not waste his time because he is grateful to see the people he loves fighting on the hot stage. Malika and the others accompanied Alya.
Alya was worried to see Kaffa's opponents being strong enough with his respective arguments. But Kaffa is no less persistent against all those arguments. Of the many races, the debate race is the most awaited. The stage of the race became hot because the participants were increasingly tense. The audience's voice was cheering not every time the participant from one side floated his argument. Alya believes Kaffa can win this race because Alya knows very well the ability of the man he loves.
And yes it is. At the end Kaffa won a landslide and his opponent could not dwell anymore. Alya was very happy with that. Everyone congratulated him.
"Congratulations Kaf you succeeded" said Alya happily approaching Kaffa
"Thank you, this is all thanks to your help"
Since then Kaffa has become more popular. Especially in his prodi and lecturers because he has perfected the name of his prodi. Since then, Kaffa has become more addicted to keep competing and Kaffa has won it many times.

At work.
"Bang Kaffa .. was called Mr. Ridwan in his room" said one of Kaffa's coworkers
"What did Mr Ridwan call me ? did I make a mistake ?" kaffa's inner murmur as he walked towards his superior room
"Before congratulations, Kaf, I heard that you have won many competitions" said Mr. Ridwan
Without answering Kaffa just smiled nodding.
"Go to the point. You must be wondering why I called you here. You want me to be the chairman to handle all the affairs in the garden of the Qur'an of this foundation"
Hearing that Kaffa suddenly raised his head.
"And I also ask you to find another female teacher. Because the children who teach here more and more. Farida and Sari felt overwhelmed. No need to go through me anymore. In accordance with your qualifications only. I'm sure you know better which is suitable for the development of this teaching place" said Mr. Ridwan continued his talk
In his heart, Kaffa was pleased that this was a good opportunity for him, but also hesitated whether he could carry this trust well. Considering Mr. Ridwan's trust in him is so great.
"Alright Sir. Pray that I can be confident in this new trust. Regarding the new njai teacher I will soon find it"
***
A few days later.
"duhh I have to find where else. I have all offered. I do not want to disappoint Mr. Ridwan." muttered Kaffa who had earlier looked down confused scratching his head
"What's Kaf ? is there a problem ?" alya asked, solving her mind
"Why is your workplace ? what else happened to you there ?" alya asked worriedly
During his time with Kaffa, Alya knew very well so many problems Kaffa in that place. Kaffa often shared his stories with him. But Kaffa's complaints did not stop him because he needed a job.
Of course, considering he who has not graduated from college, it will be difficult to find a decent job with only a High School diploma. The average student can only find a side job like teaching because the job can be flexible to adjust their tuition hours.
"No. I appointed Mr. Ridwan to be the chairman, but I was also told to find an additional teacher. Nothing yet I've started to give up on my first assignment"
"ahh Alhamdulillah, I am glad to hear it. Hmm teacher najai additional huh ? why don't you try offering your friends ?"
"heh. I've done a few days but the results are nil. We need a female teacher. My friends all can't. All of them refused because the location is too far while the salary is small and according to them will not be appropriate. There they will only be impressed to volunteer" said Kaffa with a long sigh
"I couldn't possibly take you to work with me either, right ? yes, every day I have to take you to that place. I'm thinking about your health. Help me Alya, maybe there are your friends who have high teaching skills and enough knowledge to be able to join me. You're from the cottage, there must be a lot of it. Ohh yes who has a vehicle and accepts what is all about my place of work" continued Kaffa with a little disappointed
"Yes, I'll try to help you find ya"
In the class Alya certainly did not focus on thinking about the baldness of the man he loved. Alya really could not let Kaffa just a little in distress. All he had in mind, however he had to help Kaffa. But in his heart was also confused. Who is the person he should offer and be suitable for the job. Friends cottage on this campus is a lot, but of course they are the same regional children as Alya. Given what Kaffa said, they definitely don't have a vehicle. Even if you have to ride a public vehicle, of course the small salary will run out for the cost.
In the midst of his daydream, Alya saw a woman in front of the class was presenting lecture material.
"So that's how everyone's friends are. It is true that Islam has a very large share in science. A simple example like our majors, physics, which is identical to formulas and numbers. You should know the inventor of the number 0 is a Muslim scientist. Al-Khwarizm her name is.." clearly the woman.
The female voice continued to dominate the classroom. Making the whole class nod around meant that they had all gained new knowledge from the explanation of the woman.
"Abira ? what should Abira ? I think Abira is a good fit for the job. Maybe he can help. Abira is an old friend of Kaffa, they must be suitable and can cooperate. His knowledge is no doubt. Teaching it also corresponds to the Tartil of the Qur'an" murmured Alya while paying attention to his explanation
Actually in Alya's heart appeared doubt. What he should recommend Abira to Kaffa. Remembering the events in the bus first and then Alya was jealous. How not to be jealous, Abira the woman he admired was with the man he loved. Alya is afraid of losing competitiveness with Abira.
But Kaffa needs help. Alya could not let Kaffa in distress. He could only trust Kaffa with his immense trust. They are also just old friends.
***
"WHAT ??? ABIRA ??? are you not wrong" said Kaffa with surprise
"He was right Abira. What's wrong ? maybe he can help, Abira will also have changed even his religious knowledge far above me."
"Have you talked about it with Abira ?"
"Hmm not yet, I'm just thinking"
"She must have been unwilling and resisted for the same reason as my other friends"
"Why are you so pessimistic. Is Abira's house far away too ?"
"Yes he lives in the Sandalwood area"
"Sandana ? but as I recall when the initial introduction to college he said he lived in a beautiful area" Alya replied with confusion
Deggs..
"Come ? did Abira move house ? The jewel is close to my house. Means all this time we didn't live too far ?" kaffa's inner murmur
"So how's Kaf ? I don't know who to recommend to you anymore" said Alya broke Kaffa's daydream, Alya has indeed explained the reason can only recommend the name Abira. Remembering his friend who is also far away and does not have a vehicle
"Maybe if he wants to. You better talk to him first"
"All right"
Hearing what Kaffa said, Alya smiled. He thought that Kaffa was very sensitive to his doubts even he was the one who dispelled those doubts by having him directly talk to Abira. Alya thought Kaffa really did not want to make himself jealous and assured that there was nothing between him and his friend Abira.
