“I'm fine, sir. You should take a break,” Kinan told Hanif.
“Stay I'm worried about you. Are the pictures the same as you? Let me see, let me take care of this. You take it easy, I'm fine,” Hanif said as he raised his hand.
Kinan took a few photos inside the bag and handed them to Hanif. There was a sense of shame when Hanif saw the photos one by one. Especially those inappropriate images.
“Actually I am worried, if your work as a lecturer will be threatened. I know very well if this is your goal. Even you refused your parents' request to lead the company just for the sake of becoming a lecturer.”
Hanif looked at Kinan intently. He did not expect that the girl knew about his personal affairs as well. His family must have told him about it. No doubt he's happy Kinan's attention is on him.
Without Kinan knowing, that Hanif had intended to stop being a lecturer because of the girl. He and his parents made a deal. If Hanif and Kinan's relationship is successful, then the man should be prepared to replace his father as the company leader. He can still be a lecturer to fill the class if his job is done.
“You don't have to worry about me. I can handle it myself. You just have to think about yourself. Don't let anyone bully you" Hanif said.
“Of course, I am not a weak girl, which they can easily crush.”
Hanif smiled, he was happy if Kinan had great confidence. At least the girl could defend herself, without asking for help from others. There will come a time when he will stand up to protect Kinan.
“I have to go back to the lecturer's room. Is there still class after this?”
“Nothing, Sir. I'd like to go home.”
“Be careful on the road,” said Hanif who soon left the classroom.
The girl took care of her equipment and left. When he left the class, there were already his friends there. They stood in front of the class looking at Kinan. He knows very well what they want.
“Wah wow, so great for you. After breaking up from Niko, now that's your target lecturer. The most famous lecturer and killer anyway,” said Nayla. However, Kinan just remained silent not responding.
For him it is not very important. The more they are, the more they will be happy. Looking at Kinan who was silent, Nayla spoke again.
“After the lecturer, who else do you want to pursue? Do you want the head rector? Or the foundation owner? Wih, horror also yes your toys.”
“It's a pity I don't like toys.”
“Oh yes! So what does he want? Just go straight, right up to the guarantee!" exciting Nayla.
"He wants to play spit, Nay," said Nayla's friend.
“If you can, why not? Yeah .. At least I never committed a sin. After all, Mr. Hanif is also not a married man or has a relationship with other women, so I am free to pursue him,” said Kinan who deliberately wanted to make Nayla angry.
In fact, in his heart he wanted to curse, how could he say like a cheap woman. However, come to think of it, it is true ‘ would there be nothing wrong if he was close to Hanif? He's a single guy, not tied to anyone.
“I want to see how long you have been in a relationship with Mr. Hanif. I know he's a cold person, definitely can't be romantic with you. Could-be later you have to be aggressive with him.”
“If it is required, why not! Aren't you like that too? Next time if you talk something you should think first,” said Kinan who then passed from there.
Farah, who was with Nayla, follows Kinan. He wants to talk to his best friend. All this time only the girl was good with him. Unlike others who only take advantage of his helplessness.
“Kinan! Where are you going?” asked Farah with a little run.
Kinan stopped and turned around. “I want to go home, what is it?”
All this time it was only him who did not come mocking like other friends. Kinan knew because Farah was only made a maid by them. Actually the girl pity her best friend, but how else, she herself refused. Farah was among those who could not afford it.
“Lagian Farah, why do you still want to be friends with them? Though every day you are only used as a maid.”
“You will know how my family is. I'm not rich like them. I also still need a job with Nayla.”
“But you don't have to be his assistant on campus. You work enough in her restaurant after coming home from college.”
“But if I don't want to comply with his wishes, he will definitely complain to his parents and they will fire me. I don't want to lose my job. My sisters are still in school, I still want to go to college.”
“Yes, I understand. I don't have a problem, man! Later if you can't stand them anymore and need a job, you just say the same to me. God willing I will help you find him.”
“Yes, thank you, for now I still work there only.”
“Yes, it's okay. I can't force you. Yes, I went back first. You want me to drop off?”
“No need, I still have class.”
“I'm back first, assalamualaikum.” Kinan waved his hand, as did Farah.
“Waalaikumsalam.”

Meanwhile, Hanif was currently still in the lecturer's room. All his friends are waiting for answers from the man, about the gossip and photos circulating today. All this time he had not been close to anyone, but now he had suddenly circulated such a photo. Until rumors spread if they have a special relationship.
Actually there is no problem if they are indeed in a relationship, but the problem is the photos. It is not appropriate for such an image to be done by a lecturer. Hanif also cannot be blamed because it is the work of irresponsible people.
“So, Mr Hanif, what is your relationship with that student named Kinan?” ask one of the teachers.
“She is my fiancee. I'm sorry I've caused trouble on this campus, but I really have no such intention. From the beginning indeed we want to keep it a secret because it does not want to be a problem.”
“What, Father, is not wrong? She's Mr Hanif's fiancee?” ask Miss Lisa, the woman who put her heart on Hanif.
“Iya, Mom. Is it true that there is a problem?” hanif's question made the woman speechless.
Lisa doesn't think Hanif could have a fiancee. The woman knew that Hanif had never returned her feelings. However, hearing that the man was engaged, it was very painful. The hope he had given was enormous, now it just crumbled.
“Are you not afraid of being expelled from this campus?” ask Lisa.
“What do you mean, Mom? On this campus there are no regulations to prohibit residents from establishing relationships. Wasn't the rector also his wife a lecturer here?”
“But Kinan is a student.”
