Want a Life of Heaven

54. Akmal's past?

"What time is it today?" Agnia asked, approaching Akbar who had turned on his motorbike, ready to leave. In his hand was a broom that he was wearing sweeping the entire house, almost finished.

Akbar thought for a moment, like checking his schedule. Then sniff. "Sore looks.."

"Ehh.." Agnia nodded. "You can't ask for help with you." said Agnia, her eyes did not blink looking at Akbar.

"Ehh.." Akbar knew that gaze, immediately nodding slowly. "Could.. Ask for help what?"

"good. That's kalo.. Before you go home.. Here's a.."

Akbar frowned, receiving several hundred thousand pieces of money from Agnia's hand.

"Shop first. Later the list is sent via chat." said Agnia, waiting for Akbar who was still staring at the money in his hand. "But if you take a break." said Agnia again, full of pressure. Making Akbar chuckle, if there was anything, Agnia's speech sounded should have time in her ear.

Agnia was delighted, Akbar did not mention it at all this time.

"Okay.." Akbar said firmly, while putting the money into his pocket.

"Emh... But I won't papa.."

"No problem.. Relax."

"I mean later shawl.."

"Gee!" Agnia spontaneously gave a sharp snort, the broom in her hand ready to float towards Akbar.

Akbar grinned, immediately rewind the motor. "I'm leaving.."

Agnia clucked, looking at Akbar whose rancidity was unparalleled. Since yesterday just keep teasing him with the word Shawwal.

Akbar arrived at the campus with a big smile, patting Akmal on the shoulder when he found his friend sitting on a chair with a book in his hand.

Akmal also smiled seeing the bright face of Akbar at this time, Akbar who smiled cheerfully while sighing deeply.

"Is there something fun?" ask Akmal.

Akbar shook his head, his eyes fixed on the crowd of the campus atmosphere.

"Either.. Today I think my mood is good." said Akbar. "And I don't know why."

"Ehh.." Akmal nodded, the book in his hand he closed. "I think I've done that too."

"Yep?"

"I guess.." Akmal hesitated, thinking well. Or was it just from his dream this morning?

Not yet Akmal recalled, Akbar re-opened his mouth.

"Gue taste.. This sense of calm exists, because of your presence."

Hearing that Akmal spontaneously shifted from his seat, staring at Akbar full of questions.

"Don't think weird!" Akbar raised his voice, repulsed by Akmal's reaction as if he was abnormal.

Akbar took a breath, looked at Akmal next to him for a moment and then looked straight back.

"Mbak Agni recently said that it is time for me to think about my own life. At that time I was confused, because I never felt concerned about the lives of others. But after I thought I just realized that I turned out to be very concerned with the life of Sister Agni more than I realized." Akbar spoke with a smile, as if the calmness he meant was drawn on his face. "Gue felt happiest when he knew he would be in good hands."

Akmal hesitated to raise his lips, not knowing why when his relationship with Agnia slowly found its way, Akmal's heart hesitated. There is one event that no one knows and no one would have thought if it happened to Akmal in the past.

Akbar snorted, realizing something. "My conversation is too far away." he said with a grin. Then rise. "Gue's staying.."

Agnia was still sitting at her desk, facing the deserted tables. His heart suddenly felt empty again. The feeling of doubt that had disappeared back alighted in his heart for some reason.

A moment later Agnia got up, as her hand grabbed her bag from the table. Agnia suddenly remembered Akmal, her eyes spontaneously circling the corner of the school when her feet had stepped out.

Usually Akmal appears suddenly at this hour, but it seems that the boy did not come to pick up today. Agnia sighed, smiling faintly. It was strange that he felt lost by not coming Akmal.

Agnia's steps had already reached the gate room, nodding politely at the security guard, also greeting some of her students.

Smile is a demand, Agnia put on a cheerful face since her step into the school environment. But the smile was gone when no one was nearby.

Agnia stepped down the street, walking alone towards her home. Unexpectedly, in front there was another person who was also on foot, it was Alisya and Raina.

Realizing that Agnia spontaneously slowed her pace. Not wanting to know where and which way Alisya's house is.

At that time a car seemed to stop in front of the couple Mother and child. Agnia could already guess who the driver of the car was when Alisya got into the car as well as Raina sitting in the back seat. As Agnia stared at the sight, she who did not want to cross paths with Alisya chose to stop her steps.

At first glance Agnia could see Adi in the car, smiling bitterly. Strangely, there is no sadness for Agnia, nor the pain that is usually felt when remembering the two figures. Now, Agnia felt her heart get better.

Agnia returned to her feet as the car disappeared from her sight, stepping with a more determined heart than usual.

It was then, when Agnia did not think about the surroundings, Akmal came with his bike. Stop in front of Agnia who from afar never saw her coming.

"Wouldn't you wait for me to come?" akmal asked behind his helmet, asking casually after previously making Agnia surprised.

Agnia snorted softly, astonished at all. When he did not expect the presence of Akmal, this boy actually came.

Different from Akmal, Agnia realizes that Akmal does not talk much like his birthday. Even the whole trip didn't get Agnia to talk.

Agnia gave the helmet from her hand to Akmal, without realizing it her eyes noticed Akmal's lethargic face.

"Thank you.."

Akmal nodded, giving his trademark smile.

"Akmal.." call Agnia, make Akmal spontaneously raise his eyebrows. Staring Agnia.

Agnia shaking. Not intending to ask, just spontaneously say hello.

"Emh.. Ma'am.." Now it was Akmal's turn to call out to Agnia, seeming to want to say something.

"Say.." said Agnia as if she knew the heart of Akmal, ready to hear whatever Akmal said.

"I know the past is falling" said Akmal. "And like Ma'am, so do I.. I also had my own story before this."

"Then?"

"I want you to know my past."

Agnia nodded. "Ten minutes is enough?"

Akmal smiled. "Either.. Anyway I'll pick up Ma'am later in the afternoon, we'll chat in a more comfortable place."

Agnia was about to refuse, feeling better if Akmal just said what she wanted to say back then. But Akmal deliberately rushed to turn on his motor and left. Leaving the astonished Agnia alone, standing in front of the fence of her house.

"Is his past that complicated?" mumbled Agnia, still do not understand why having to provide another time to talk at this moment alone is enough.
