Best Teacher And Me
First Fuss

Kila was waiting for dinner. But, his energy today seemed to be drained a lot and had to be replenished immediately. As a result, Kila decided to have dinner first to replenish her strength. After all, it was dinner time but Irsyad had not returned home from the mosque.

Finished Kila devoured the food, she immediately cleaned the dining table to look neat again. He washed the dishes and then returned to the room to take back the script. His struggle to quickly graduate was really serious he did so as not to shackle Irsyad too long because of his promise to Kila's parents.

"So, want to go straight to work again? Brother Irsyad hasn't had dinner yet, has he? Don't forget to eat, brother." Kila stopped writing the script because of the sound of greetings from below, Irsyad who had just returned from the mosque. He wants to welcome Irsyad. However, Irsyad headed straight to his study after returning from the mosque. He could only throw a speck of attention through the words before Irsyad actually entered his study again.

"Yes, thanks. But I had dinner at a friend's house, we became friends because we often met during congregational prayers at the mosque" Irsyad replied. He then walked into the study and left Kila.

"Ooh.., that's why old Sister Irsyad came home from her mosque. Then, what was the stock problem? Doesn't Irsyad want to explain anything about that?" batin Kila.

Because the reception this time also failed, Kila was getting annoyed. Upset at two individuals at once, himself and Irsyad. His heart could not accept Irsyad's attitude like that, but also could not accept the attitude he showed to respond to Irsyad's attitude. Now he felt really angry at the two individuals. But anger is useless. Kila diverted her anger by busying herself. After finishing cleaning the dining table, he returned to installment his script.

...****************...

Again, tonight is like yesterday. Irsyad should have done the prayer witir in the room. Is he going to do the same thing as last night? Kila who thought about it could no longer bear the attitude of Irsyad. I went to Irsyad's office. Then, opening it a little rough unintentionally, it was caused by his overflowing emotions right now. Kila could have exploded right then and there.

Kila who had entered Irsyad's study was made to cry. Kila had exploded at that time because he saw Irsyad was doing his nightly routine reading Surah Al-Mulk before going to bed. Yes, Kila is getting upset with this one individual. How could he be angry with the person who had hypnotized him with the melodious sound of the holy verse? Kila cried as if replacing the anger that was ready to explode.

Irsyad has finished with his nightly routine. He immediately headed to the sofa without tidying up first his prayer equipment. He knew of Kila's whereabouts, but tried to ignore her.

"Tonight Brother Irsyad will sleep here again? What's wrong with Brother?" said Kila who was calmer than before.

"I'm so tired today. There's no energy to go upstairs" Irsyad retorted. He ignored Kila and refocused himself on entering the dreamland.

"Tired Brother said? Kila is also tired, not just my sister. Kila's heart was also tired of facing this. Kila hope Big Brother has a good dream, yes!" kila sarcas said at the end.

...****************...

Kila no longer cared about Irsyad's attitude. He also does not want to talk much with Irsyad if the answer from Irsyad will only hurt Kila continuously. As now, she still serves her duty as a wife to treat bitter tea and also prepare breakfast and provisions. However, he did not have breakfast one table with Irsyad. He left some sort of memo at the dinner table for Irsyad to read.

"Sorry, Brother. It seems that Kila will not be able to be a good wife to serve her husband. To eat and stock will always be prepared, but Kila can not accompany Brother at the same table. Kila wants to focus on getting the thesis done quickly. Irsyad's been busy lately, right? If Kila shows up, Kila is afraid that Irsyad is getting tired of facing Kila. Oiya, about classes to campus, Kila did not go to campus for this week and next week. Kind of mentoring with lecturers off campus. So, Sister Irsyad does not need to bother shackled by the promise of Big Brother who he said will always be there for Kila as a substitute for grandmother or the promise will always shuttle Kila. Please, Brother Irsyad understands. Sorry for just being able to say it through this paper." That is how the memo is written. Irsyad read it and took the memo with him. Well, Irsyad had finished breakfast while reading the memo. Otherwise, he would definitely not taste touching his breakfast. Undeniably, the contents of the memo can disturb Irsyad's mind.

Irsyad left for college, while Kila only saw Irsyad's departure from the window. Kila did not lie about his script, he was completely preoccupied by the thesis. He actually did it to divert his mind. He knows that his attitude has included disobeying the husband. They had not even lived together for a month, there had been a cold war between them.

"Bismillah.., O Rabbii, make it easy for the servant to complete this thesis. Aamiin," said Kila before struggling with the script back.

"Hopefully the supplied post was read by Mr. Irsyad," said Kila. He had spent a long time sitting down and did not feel it was time for lunch. He drove down to eat, replenished his energy because he had thought too much. Whether about her script or her husband.

While on campus, Irsyad began to open a bag of supplies that Kila had prepared for him. There was a memo written in the form of a post it on top of the lunch box. Then Irsyad started reading it.

"Already yesterday seems redundant because it must be thrown away, brother. Kila hope, today this rice does not come back crying because it was thrown away like yesterday." The contents of the memo whose meaning is subtly insinuating. Irsyad was a little upset by that. But he recalled, Kila did not know the reason Irsyad did that. Let Kila do as she pleases, Irsyad thought.

Seeing that provision, Irsyad still ate even though the food reminded him of Kila who was upset.

"What else will he write for tonight?" irsyad's upset in the heart.

What happened to these two individuals? They fight, but not physically. They begin to offend each other just because of the attitude that each one shows.
