Ustadz Dream

Chapter 17

The day has passed Syifa who has forgotten the events of that day he is more often preoccupied with all activities in pesantren and in madrasah.

He also never met again with Ustadz Yusuf, maybe he was busy because taking over the boarding school certainly made him a little busy.

In library.

Syifa who had finished working on the task of his group with Arini, Arumi and Desi they immediately ran to the madrassa because 3 minutes more hours of lessons will begin soon.

When the door was open the bell rang fortunately they were on time because if it was not clear Ustadz Hanif would not let anyone who was late in his lesson hours would not get learning in class.

Those who are late will wait outside until the lesson is over and will get the penalty of copying all the lessons that the santri and other santriwati have learned that day as well.

Syifa tidied up her clothes and sat down in her chair.

There were footsteps approaching that all students were preparing to receive learning.

''Assalamualaikum.''

''Waalaikumusalam.'' Syifa looked up and was surprised by the clear voice she was familiar with.

''Waalakumusalam wr.wb.'' answered all the santri.

''to this day I will replace Ustadz Hanif teaching because Ustadz Hanif is not ill, please for his cooperation.'' Yusuf explained.

Joseph was sitting in his chair he looked ordinary as if there had never been anything with Syifa, he looked very focused when teaching, he looked very focused, Syifa who saw Joseph could be that calm she did not mind him because it would be better and easier for her to forget Ustadz Yusuf.

until the bell rang for Joseph's rest hours went outside and went to the office.

''Syifa, do you think there is anything different about Ustadz Yusuf?'' said Arin who seemed to notice Ustadz Yusuf who looked very cold.

''unusual as it is.'' Sahut Syifa even though Syifa also realized that because it is not usually Ustadz Yusuf as cold as earlier.

''Maybe because we are used to it the same time Ustadz Hanif a little warmer said Desi who began to sit at Syifa's table.

''Udah yuk ah we go to the cafeteria anyways I'm hungry.'' Syifa got up from her seat and walked out.

They also walked outside but how shocked Syifa was when he saw Ustadzah Nadia who was walking out of the office and seen behind him was with Ustadz Yusuf.

''They are indeed very harmonious like a couple I sincerely if Ustadz Yusuf with Ustadzah Nadia Ustadz is more suitable with Ustadzah Nadia.'' Syifa said in her heart but could not be denied in her small heart she felt pinched again she saw their togetherness.

''Hey look at when the witch came back here instead of going out, if I were the owner of this pesantren would not let me return here again.'' Arini who was really anxious saw Ustadzah Nadia who was walking closer.

''Udah is not good to talk about kayaks that way, besides he is still a Ustadzah let's go rin,'' Desi drag Arin's hand to immediately go to the canteen.

While Syifa who had gone first with Arumi he did not want if his heart was hurt deeper.

Nadia returns to the pesantren because indeed she aims to take what she thinks is hers she is really stubborn.

Abi Husein and Ummi Nur came with Nadia and pleaded with abah and ummi not to remove Nadia according to Nadia will change she promised not to repeat it back abah and ummi who felt bad the heart also let Nadia return to her pesantren.

Hanif who knew that Nadia was back at the cottage he was not sure if Nadia would change he was a little worried if Nadia would do what she had done to Syifa but he tried to think positively, he was trying to think positively, moreover, he also knew that Syifa had decided not to accept Joseph's proposal.

Hanif who spent his time in the room he was a little bored He tried to go outside to get fresh air.

Hanif also walked to the park behind the pesantren library. He sat himself under a shady tree and closed his eyes He breathed fresh air which made him a little calm.

''It is true why I remember the woman, but it is only fitting that Joseph truly loved Syifa. I could have loved him myself but what Yusuf would have said was maybe I would have thought of as a traitor, why could it be this complicated.''

Hanif did like Syifa, but he did not have the courage to express it, he was too afraid of what Joseph said, especially when Joseph still loved him, even he still hoped that Syifa would one day receive him.

Dret...

hanif's phone rang.

Hanif immediately reached into the phone in his pants pocket looks ummi his call.

“Assalamualaikum?''

''Waalaikumusalam, when do you come home son? Abi is sick.''

Hanif who was relaxing was a little worried because ummi gave the news that her Abi was sick.

''Yes ummi maybe tomorrow I will go home.''

Hanif who had ended his phone immediately returned to his room his mind was a little unsettled.

.

.

Nadia who was in the cafeteria he smiled cunningly looking at Syifa he felt that soon he would get what he had hoped for, all this time, because there is no way that Joseph would prefer Syifa, he thought choosing Syifa was a stupid thing if it really happened.

Joseph who realized the existence of Syifa there he preferred silence he chose a chair that was quite a bit away from Syifa even though near Syifa there was an empty bench.

Nadia approached Joseph and sat with him, it was true that their closeness was like a lover but Joseph was not like that, according to him Nadia was like her own sister.

.

.

At abah's house.

''I'm sure Nadia won't repeat anything stupid again right? ummi was worried that this time she would do more recklessly.'' Ummi stared fixedly he was very worried if indeed bad things would happen again.

''Either mi, abah herself thought the same thing, maybe this is the time we have to force that our child sooner decide to immediately have a companion maybe it is better.''

''I mean abah? Nadia's gonna be our daughter-in-law? ummi does not agree bah, ummi does not want to have a temperamental daughter-in-law like Nadia.''

''We will leave everything to Yusuf ummi, let him decide his life.''

Ummi who was a little anxious he squeezed his hand what Joseph would do, he was worried that Syifa was indeed a poor girl why she was involved in such a complicated affair.

.

While Hanif was in his room he started packing his things for the next day to return to his native area he did not want anything to happen to his Abi.

Is this love should not be conveyed, if indeed Syifa will be my soul mate may You make it easy, but if indeed he is not my soul mate then give him a better soul mate than me.'' Hanif prayed in his heart he did realize his love but it was very difficult to express it.
