Habib Khalid raised his head, observing Aish's pensive red face as he looked at the catfish in the bucket. Although Aish did not say his concern, all of Aish's thoughts were written on his own face. His frown was disturbed with pouting lips looking uncomfortable. Unknowingly Aish's pouting appearance had attracted the attention of some santri who were secretly peeping.
As men, they clearly had a strong interest but were unable to show due to the religious education they had received early on.
As a result, to satisfy the desire of the heart sometimes they will peek or see secretly a person who has managed to touch the curiosity. As of now, Aish's beautiful and charming appearance is all the more seductive when Aish accidentally makes a sullen expression on her red face.
The hearts of some santri are very hot. They were eager to reach out to Aish, looking at him freely to satisfy the sudden sense of awe that had grown in the heart.
"You can all continue the work again. As with the previous instructions, dead and rotting hyacinths should be removed from the pond. Just put all the hyacinths that die on the edge of the pond and do not immediately be thrown away because the dead hyacinth can be buried in the ground to be used as fertilizer. Do you guys understand?" Habib Khalid's flat voice shocked the students.
They all lowered their heads in shame. Some of the people who had had thoughts towards Aish and Dira were immediately pacified. Although there is little regret about not being able to see much, the words of Habib Khalid are far more important than the desires of the heart. They obediently nodded and went back down to the pool.
"We understand, habib."
"Hem."
From above the habib Khalid secretly watched the santri descend into the pond and carry out their duties properly. After confirming that they were not playing with their eyes again, Habib Khalid brought his eyes back to Aish, then slowly lowered his head to look at the bucket.
"I'll help you bring her to Umi's house. It just so happens that I will also return to Umi's house." Habib Khalid said back with his smiling face.
Aish was delighted to hear it. His bright, bright apricot eyes glimmered at the habib Khalid. The longing that had been 10 days mushrooming in his heart instantly paid off today.
He's happy, very happy.
"Sister Khalid's okay, right?" Aish asked timidly and almost blinded Dira's eyes.
Right, since when did Aish have this gentle temperament?
Since when not! Exactly was this Aish whom he knew with Aish beside him the same person?!
Habib Khalid smiled gently, slowly turning his gaze to Aish. Their eyes meet. The sparkle inside the apricot's eyes was so beautiful, it was as if there was a clear lake residing there, hiding an untouched beauty of the soul. So endearing.
"It's okay. This was my plan from the beginning."
Bizarrely. Dira scratched his non-itchy ear.
Habib Khalid's words were somewhat ambiguous and strange. But he did not know where the strange place was because logically, the words of Habib Khalid were not vulgar and seemed polite.
But...
Why do I feel like something is wrong? Inner Dira hesitated.
"Ah," Aish lowered her head in embarrassment.
"Thank you, brother Khalid. Again brother Khalid helped us." Soft mutter.
Habib Khalid chuckled, shook his head helplessly and felt anxious himself at Aish's sweet behavior, "What doesn't make you." Smuggled whisper.
Aish raised his head in shock, looking at habib Khalid with a cautious look.
"What did Khalid say?" Ask doubtfully.
Because he had heard Habib Khalid say something but because his voice was too small, he was not so clear. In addition, the sound of his heartbeat was too loud, so he was not very clear with what Habib Khalid said earlier.
Habib Khalid smiled broadly. Staring at Aish for a while, then again shaking his head helplessly.
"It's not something that matters." Said calm.
Not something that matters?!
Dira almost scratched his ears with a wooden twig beside him. He was sure that what Habib Khalid said must be something very important to Aish, although well.it was also not too clear to him because the voice of Habib Khalid was too small, ah!
The two of them were definitely not ordinary acquaintances! Just look at the ambiguous atmosphere here, my presence is clearly blocking the meeting of the two of them! Batin Dira nelangsa's.
He knows it. He shouldn't have come here!
"Oh.." Aish's face was very red.
It feels so embarrassing.
"Assalamualaikum, habib?"
Suddenly Danis came to interrupt the ambiguous atmosphere between them. Dira quietly sighed in relief at the arrival of Danis. And for the first time he was very happy to see the face of the walls of Danis.
"Waalaikumussalam, what's wrong?" Habib Khalid looked very ordinary in front of Danis.
Indeed, his lips formed a line of smiles, but somehow Dira always felt that the smile was not as gentle as the habib Khalid showed in front of Aish.
Danis's eyes swept over Aish and Dira several times. His expression was so striking that it made Dira's nape instantly goosebumps.
"What's with that weird expression?" Tanya Dira hesitated.
Aish did not pay much attention to Danis and was unaware of the 'surveillance' expression on Danis's face. So he just shook his head not knowing.
"Of course."
After seeing it a few times, Danis wisely withdrew her gaze from the two of them back to look at the habib Khalid. Act as if Aish and Dira are not here.
"Will Habib Khalid return to Umi's house?" Ask politely.
Habib Khalid looked at Danis with a meaningful gaze and nodded lightly.
"Can I come? I also have business with Umi."
Habib Khalid did not object to Danis' request because at first he also intended to bring Danis there to help.
"Follow it. I need your help too." Habib Khalid said.
Danis nodded politely. Without being asked he immediately took over the large bucket containing catfish and carried it alone.
Habib Khalid and Danis then walked in front while Aish and Dira also walked behind them. They were exactly two or three meters away from the habibs Khalid and Danis.
Behind Dira immediately seized the opportunity to talk to Aish. He pulls Aish's hand to walk slower with the smell of gossip all over his body.
"Born of gibah." Aish's sweat.
Dira dodged,"No gibbah. It's just it."
Aish rolled her eyes doubting him.
"Aish, you..." Dira's words stopped.
He looked pensive, shook his head and let go of Aish's hand.
"Why?" Aish wonder.
Dira shook his head in a calm.
"Later to meet Gisel. It just so happens that I also want to name Gisel, so just hold on." Gossip is not cool if it's just the two of you.
Aish was silent,"..." Well, why did he never know that Dira had such a big gossip soul, ah!
