Best Teacher And Me
Putting Back the Heart

Kila smothered her mouth with both hands. He did not expect the short sentence slowly that he said could be heard by his grandmother and Irsyad. Even worse, they responded.

“Agenda ta’aruf?” ask Kila. He ventured to ask the purpose of the response from his grandmother and Irsyad earlier.

Apparently Irsyad felt there was something to be explained by the reflex response he said earlier.

“Ah, yes, of course this is the agenda ta’aruf. Just like I did when I entered on my first day as a substitute homeroom teacher. I want to get to know you how his character is at home, I can get to know more and we are getting closer. The opposite also applies, you and the other students can ask me any questions about me. So that we may know each other. That's what ta’aruf actually means, right? Get to know each other.” Irsyad explained in detail what he could.

Grandma looked at Kila, and knowing that Kila was looking back at Grandma. It's like they're doing inner communication. Grandma thought that the purpose of the ta’aruf agenda was a common thing done by someone who would continue the relationship to a serious level. Both of them held back laughter because they had different thoughts with Irsyad. Again Irsyad reminded the true meaning of ta’aruf.

Actually Kila already knew Irsyad would answer with such an answer. But Kila didn't know that her grandmother thought about ta’aruf seriously. Grandma seemed to be very happy with her misunderstanding earlier. Who wouldn't be happy if they actually got an ideal son-in-law like Irsyad, try?

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

Not felt, the day is getting late. Zuhur prayer has Kila tunaikan. Irsyad has been out of Kila's house since ten. A little excess of an hour was said for the meeting.

Grandma had finished preparing lunch on the table. Kila did not help anything, because the grandmother preferred cooking and serving her she did by herself. Kila went to pick up a set of cutlery in the kitchen, then took the food that Grandma had prepared for her.

“Kila, how do you think?” ask grandma. Kila did not answer. Kila was so sensitive that grandma asked that. This is definitely talking about Irsyad who has a grandmother keep as “palon son-in-law”. Grandma was already very happy with Kila's youth.

“Eeeh, why not answer?” said grandma while glancing at Kila.

“Again meals, Grandma. Not recommended speaking. Slush later. After just eating, yes, Grandma, the language.” If it is like that, you want to avoid the topic.

“OK, later grandma ask again,” reply grandma.

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

Kila seemed to have completely avoided the topic of the conversation about Irsyad. He hurried to finish his meal and washed the dishes and went straight into the room leaving his grandmother at the dinner table. Grandma initially thought after finishing washing her dishes Kila would return to the dining table, apparently even to her room.

“Kila, are you in the room? Hey, we haven't talked, you know,” said the grandmother slightly shouting. It seems that grandmother's efforts were in vain because there was no reply from Kila who had already closed her room.

Grandma finished her lunch, washed the dishes, then headed to Kila's room. Grandma came in without knocking first, she usually does. After all, Kila had not objected to that all along.

“Nek, Kila is sleepy. I read a lot of books, Kila Pegel's eyes. Later if you want to talk about Mr. Irsyad. Poor him we speak quietly behind him. Ghibah is also the fall of tofu, his beloved grandmother Kila.

“Only do you know from where if the grandmother wants to talk about Nak Irsyad?” said grandma with a quipped look.

“Hayo, can't answer, can you? Cie...,” fashion granny.

“Udah ah, Kila did not want to discuss,” said Kila behind the blanket.

Grandma came closer and was already sitting on Kila's bed. He tried to remove the blanket that smothered his granddaughter's entire face. The blanket had been revealed and showed a beautiful face of Kila who looked annoyed at grandma.

“Nek, what the hell, anyway? Kila was really sleepy, not lying. Is it really necessary to reply to the grandmother question?” kila. Grandma nodded her head with a smile.

“Okay, okay Please answer. After I answered, Kila wants a nap permit, yes, Nek?” kila. He positioned himself by sitting next to his grandmother. The grandmother who was preparing to hear his grandson's answer was already smiling waiting for Kila's response about the young man.

“So, grandma wants to hear about Mr. Irsyad, right?” ask Kila to make sure. Grandma just smiled silently as a sign of affirming Kila's words.

“Tuh, right. It's true to talk about Mr. Irsyad. What does grandma want to ask? What does Kila ‘gimana’ think of Mr Irsyad? If you don't understand, Grandma.” Answer Kila. Grandma guessed her grandson must have been trying to dodge again.

“You tell me, dong! What do you think Irsyad's that guy? You're secretly putting your heart into him, aren't you?” replied the grandmother in a seductive tone.

“Grandma, ih, nyebelin. Does your grandmother know where you are?” ask Kila in a slightly raised tone. Kila seemed to have been caught by her grandmother doing something suspicious.

“Grandmother knows you. If you are interested in something, your eyes will sparkle when faced with it. Grandma noticed you like that earlier when dealing with Irsyad. Sometimes, you raise your voice when answering Irsyad's questions. That's because you feel your heart rate racing faster, the effect you will raise your voice than is usually normal when talking to people other than Irsyad. That's still a small proof. Other evidence-,” reveals grandma truncated.

Kila interrupted grandmother's speech.

“Enough, enough. Grandma what the hell, it's not real, you know.” Kila felt the heat on her cheeks. He then put his face back in a blanket. Choose to really take a nap and ignore his grandmother.

“Cie-cie her cheeks are red. Wear covered up everything. It's been proven, right, you put the same heart he.” Grandma tried to flirt again. But it seems Kila really doesn't ignore her grandmother.

“You dong business in a third of the night. Grandma must be happy if you get a couple like Nak Irsyad. Grandma's even happier if you decide to get married young, and it's time when grandma was alive. So grandma is calm there are people who will always be with you to replace grandma later. Then, enjoy dating after marriage. Getting to know each other after legitimately being a married couple. Then, you are more excited to go through school and college because there are people who support you, people who continue to be beside you, every activity of life so it feels more meaningful.” Grandma looked back at her grandson. Then the grandmother left Kila because there was really no response from behind the blanket.

Kila actually did not completely ignore grandma. He simply did not want the conversation to continue any further if Kila responded again. Kila actually heard her grandmother's words until she left her room. When she heard Grandma's expression about marriage, Kila was a little surprised that her grandmother wanted her to marry young.

“Yes Rabbii, I confess that I have put my heart on one of Your servants. Make your servant's love higher than the love of one of Your servants. If possible, make it easy for the servant to fulfill the wishes of the grandmother before the grandmother is completely gone, the inner” of Kila prayed as she shed her tears.
