There was a mother graduate S1 wanted to teach but there was no opportunity because the teaching staff was full, the mother was not accepted to teach at the school. Finally Freya met the Headmaster into her room.
"Assalamu'alaikum" Freya said.
"Wa'alaikumsallam" said Ms. Hasnah.
"Mom, I had a chat with Ibu Siti, she graduated from S1 and once taught at Kindergarten. I was thinking if you should not give a chance to Mother Siti" Freya said.
"Not I don't want to give the opportunity but the teacher at our school is full" said Ms. Hasnah.
"How about I step down and please give this opportunity to Lady" Freya said.
"You sure Freya? though your salary is good now" said Ms. Hasnah.
"I'm sure Ms. Siti needs this position more than I do. He loved education very much and wanted to get old to devote his life to the world of education" Freya said.
"Well, if that's your decision. Thank you Freya for the past two years you have served in this school" said Ms. Hasnah.
"Sama-sama Ma'am" Freya said.
