The school hours have arrived. Risa asks Kila to wait for her to come together to Musholla to perform Zuhr prayer. Because today is Saturday, their school is faster to go home but not as fast as Friday.
Risa asks Kila to accompany her and Ira to Irsyad's room. Despite being called quite a lot, Risa and Ira had already finished their punishment first. They were the first ones to finish and headed straight to Irsyad's room to hand it over.
Irsyad was in his place. It looks wet hair, which is likely he just finished praying zuhur congregation in musholla. Kila also marked, Irsyad who was echoing the adhan for the zuhr. He and Risa could not go to the musholla at that time because it was still a lesson that would soon end. They respected the non-Muslim teachers who taught at that time not to be allowed to the musholla when the hour would soon be over.
For people who are studying, praying at the beginning of that time is not a priority. Early prayer time is the main thing, but when compared to when demanding knowledge along with the arrival of prayer time is allowed to delay the prayer. The origin does not miss the intended prayer time. Plus, Kila's class is about to end. It is better to finish first and perform prayers. Because people who are studying also include jihad in the way of Allah SWT.
"Excuse me, Sir. Sorry to interrupt father's time. Risa and I want to deliver the task you gave as punishment, sir." Ira started the conversation.
"You put it on my table over there. I'll check at home, later," Irsyad responded.
"Well, sir," Ira replied.
"I've put it down, sir," said Ira.
"alright. You two are the only ones collecting, right? Why did Afifah Syakila come too?" ask Irsyad. Kila actually does not want to come, her feelings for Irsyad are chaotic. Risa is forcing. As a friend until jannah, Kila inevitably had to wait for Risa and just come along to enter Irsyad's room.
"Sorry, Sir. Risa and I have not yet prayed zuhur. So I accompanied at once. I'm sorry if my presence here annoys you" Kila said in a brief response.
"Ooh, I don't mean to offend. But I purely asked. You don't have to be that serious" Irsyad said. Kila was unpleased with Irsyad's response. It's like being played. After being the attention of the class because Irsyad reprimanded him, now he felt he had never done anything to Kila. It was like nothing happened, everything just came back as usual. And Kila wasn't happy about it.
"Ira and Risa, how quickly did you guys do the punishment assignment I gave you?" Irsyad moved on from Kila.
"Alhamdulillah, Sir. Me and Ira know exactly where our mistakes are. Therefore, we quickly resolved it because we already understood the root of our mistakes, sir," replied Risa.
"Yes, Sir. More or less so," Ira chimed in. Irsyad nodded in understanding with their answer.
"If allowed, I would like to ask the opinion of the three of you," said Irsyad changing the topic.
"For example, what would you like to say, sir?" Ira answered.
"What do you think of my attitude in class? Do you think I'm overreacting?" irsyad said he told her his point.
"If in my opinion, honestly a bit surprised, sir. The father with a relaxed teaching style suddenly changed to be as firm as before. Moreover, the father came with an angry face. We were scared first, sir. Yeah, right, Ris, Akil?" Ira's Response.
"I think you're a little overrated. You should explain your reasons after you have rebuked us. Not just a statement like that. If you may know, why did you come to class? Not that the maple was PKN, huh, sir? You don't explain that," Risa's turn to respond.
"True, I should have explained why I was suddenly as assertive as I was. But it doesn't seem too important to be heard by you guys. The teacher of the PKN lesson was out because of personal problems. And I'm not the picket teacher to replace him. But because I was called directly by the principal who saw firsthand the students of IPS 1 class who came out of the school area, I immediately volunteered to become his substitute teacher. There was no class I taught. Yes already, because it was unconsciously I had put on a riled face. It's not very important to explain in class, either" Irsyad said.
"How could you consider something as important as that to be unimportant? All of this needs to be communicated, sir. If you don't tell me, how can we understand? You try to be professional, but you forget that you want us as students and homeroom students to know each other and understand each other," said Kila tried as calmly as possible and lowered his voice.
"Astaghfirullah, I could have been ignited by involving a small mistake that happened to be right in front of me," Irsyad's mind realized his mistake.
"That's exactly what you said, Kila. I have to say this, I apologize to you for my treatment in class. I'm sorry I only realized after you gave me the sign." Irsyad expressed his apology.
Kila malakan make what kind of expression. It actually did not mean to offend Irsyad. He chose not to respond, he saw Irsyad wanted to connect his words.
"The task of the teacher is to make the student from a phase that cannot be, from being unable to be capable, from not being good to being good, from not understanding to understanding. I always clung to that. But this time I forgot about it because of the emotion. I hope you will forgive me" continued Irsyad.
"I'm sorry too, sir. I also over-spoke it. And I don't mean to offend you, I just give you my opinion. My attitude just reminds me of someone. I imagined that the man behaved just like my father, too quickly to come to a conclusion. You're not the person it turned out to be," Kila responded.
"Kil, were you flanked by Mr Irsyad earlier?" ask Risa. Ira also followed kepo. Hearing what they were talking about, Irsyad clarified explaining.
"When you were out of class looking for half the class, I saw Kila playing on my phone. He knew I had come in. But he didn't know that I noticed him not wanting him to play his phone. Finally because the principal's report went straight to me, I vented my emotions onto Kila. Not really angry, just assertiveness. But still it's overrated. But, I am relieved to have realized it and apologized to Kila. Thank you very much Kila," said Irsyad.
"Yes, Sir. Same," replied Kila.
"Oiya, I'll visit your house tomorrow. Your parents are home, right? I'll be at nine in the morning. My herbs with bitter tea, yes," said Irsyad restore a relaxed atmosphere between them.
"Okay, sir," replied Kila.
"Yes, if you want to go, please" replied Irsyad.
"Good, Sir. Thank you very much, sir," answered by the three.
...****************...
Kila and Risa head to the musholla. While Ira has joined her excursion friend. Finished performing the prayer zuhur, Kila himself who will go home because Risa follows the exkul also-PMR. But before that, they met in the middle.
"Akil, Mr. Irsyad's visit has been like going to bed, use permission to you," Ira teased.
"That's what, his name is also as a homeroom teacher. It will be your turn to be told also like me," Kila responded.
"I don't think it's as private to you. Surely Mr. Irsyad will tell you on Monday in the future. Like the schedule, too. You also happen to get it on Sunday. I'm not doing it anyway?" said Risa follow-up teasing Kila.
"Udah, don't think weird. There you go into each other's exculpation. I want to start the excise. I want to go home, bye..," said Kila. Kila left just like that leaving a pang of annoyance on the faces of his friends.
"Say what, yeah, to grandma? Say regular kayak, deh. Grandma understood too. Just a homeroom visit, really, nothing more." Kila's inner.
