The Secret Marriage of the Teacher

Pam

The atmosphere of class XII IPA-2 turned silent and sad, not because Jonathan gave a hard-to-work-out practice or gave hard-to-digest material. Mathematics teachers who began to get a special place in the hearts of their students even resigned themselves to become their teachers and homeroom teachers.

“What school told Mr Nathan to come out because of a photo problem with Gaby ?” ask Ivana, the student with the highest grade in the math maple.

“No,” Jonathan shook his head. “School didn't tell me, but I volunteered to step down. For the future, I titip Gaby, who knows there are still many gossipers who have not been able to stop making Gaby their target.”

“That's not to worry, sir, since the beginning we've cleared up this misunderstanding,” Danu said.

“Iya Sir, where maybe we just keep quiet and let our class members in the gibah as they please, let alone we all know how Gaby was sick at that time,” Raina said.

“I'll find out who took the photo, sir. Such provocateurs cannot be taken off,” Joni said with a face of emotion.

“No need to be extended until protracted especially until acting through violent means. You just focus on your grades first, Joni. School will not be silent to respond to this problem.”

“I am not sure if this provocateur will stop here,” Joni said.

“Origin don't overdo Joni, control your emotions, don't even make you hard. Gaby and I have got the solution from school.”

“Calm down, sir, me and Danu will remind Joni of that, but we all agree that such a provicator cannot be left alone.”

Jonathan nodded with a smile.

“You know that I am really grateful when Mr. Liman appointed me to be your guardian, although a little lazy because I had to deal with Gaby who likes to argue with me.”

Jonathan glanced at Gaby who had looked most sad because he felt guilty for making Jonathan had to resign in the middle of the school year like this.

“Maybe you are a match with Gaby,” chirped Nirina.

“Cie...,cie..” Bimbim and Mimi ledks that instantly turn towards Gaby.

Both menoel-noel arms of Gaby who immediately blushed, especially when Bimbim raised his eyebrows with a smile.

“It looks like Gaby would be ashamed, sir,” said Bimbim, saying,

“I want to do it too, sir,” Raina said shamelessly.

“Huuu,” his classmates immediately boisterous while Jonathan just laughed slowly.

“If it's about a mate, no one ever knows,” comments Jonathan.

“For sure, I am really happy to be your guardian even though many teachers consider you as an outcast class because it is filled with students whose grades fit perfectly.

One of my messages that you may remember is that a person's future success cannot be measured by value on paper at this time but is determined by your own attitude in fighting for life for the future fore.

Never give up, let alone despair, failure is not the end of everything but the opportunity to improve less and realize that you still need to learn a lot. While success is not the finish line in life, it is an opportunity to reward yourself and make it continue to be better in the future

All the students spontaneously stood up and clapped, only Gaby was still sitting with a feeling of guilt.

“Gab, elo not wake up?” reprimand Danu who was sitting next to him.

“Eh yes...” Gaby finally stood up and clapped.

“We also thank you for being together for these 2 years, Mr. Jonathan. It is unfortunate because you cannot accompany us to the finish line. Since our hearts sincerely pray that you will be successful in a new job and can be present with us at graduation later.”

Danu the class president expressed his gratitude on behalf of all students of class XII IPA-2 who were again greeted with applause from all students.

“Which father moved to which school ? The women so lost the beautiful scenery in this school,” Raina chirped with her distinctive style.

“My love is only for SMA Dharma Bangsa because after this I will not be a teacher anymore, move the direction to become an office employee.”

“Huuu” the other students instantly boisterous and clapped.

“Don't forget the same we-we if you're already CEO, Sir,” Joni join the voice.

“Don't forget to search for the purpose work lo?” ledek Bimbim was immediately greeted by the laughter of some students.

”Just pray that I will be CEO when you graduate later so that we can create a startup together. My message is serious because you are in 12th grade, you have to start thinking about your life goals, what you want to be. Appreciate your life and respect your parents as long as they are alive. I've experienced how to fight hard when my father died.”

One by one the students greet Jonathan who started by Danu then Bimbim and finally the others on a regular basis. Only Gaby was still sitting on her stool with a gaze out the window.

“Gab, go forward with yuk !” invite Mimi who saw her best friend was still a henchman sitting on her stool.

Gaby was silent, her eyes blinked, holding back the tears that were already in her eyes.

“Later others even suspect that elo is not forward,” whispered Mimi.

“Lagian why elo must meweek anyway ? Mr. Nathan will still be your husband outside of school, you can still enjoy his good looks at home even in the room,” Mimi said while giggling.

Gaby glared at the tissue in her desk drawer. His position turned sideways, facing the window. He wiped away the tears that had dripped on his cheek.

“Gab,” Mimi touches his best friend's shoulder.

“Gue feels so guilty, Mi,” shrewd Gaby with a sad face.

“Remember, Mr. Nathan said, he was happier after being released as a teacher because he could show the world that you are husband and wife without fear of the judgment of others and the rules that forbid you have a relationship.”

Gaby's eyes blinked, trying to hold back the tears that still wanted to break out.

“Mimi, Gaby, what are you doing ?” reprimand Jonathan who has finished shaking hands with all students of class XII IPA - 2.

“Ng...ini Sir.. Gaby's sick..”

“I'm sorry Mr. Nathan,” cut Gaby while standing. His eyes only glanced at Jonathan and then looked down.

“Sorry because you had to resign for helping me at that time. I really regret that you have to choose to resign as a teacher so that I can still complete my education here.”

Jonathan laughed and walked over to Gaby and Danu's table.

“Gaby, resigning from this school is purely my decision. The photo could not get me dismissed because my condition helped sick students and as a welder I felt the need to accompany when your family asked the school to take you to the hospital for further examination.

Right now I really want to focus on my new job because the world I am living in is very different from my job as a teacher.

For me and apply to all of you, when we have to change direction because there are problems that make us can not keep going, do not be afraid to turn.

Letting go of the old and taking a new opportunity often makes the heart anxious, worried and even afraid. But don't make it all our reason to stop.

Keep moving forward because not necessarily at the end of the road we pass, the storm still does not stop.”

Gaby smiled faintly and extended her hand.

“Thank you for being such a shitty teacher yet generously giving value. Good luck to you in a new place.”

“And you, do not let Mr. Irvan give you a minus value because he likes to argue with him,” message Jonathan shook Gaby's hand with a smile.

No matter who started, all the students re-clapped and the beautiful moment was immediately immortalized by Mimi.
