Best Teacher And Me
Should You Reduce Communication?

Time is fast, but it is also slow. Kila has entered the first six semesters of college. Time feels so slow, the target to pass fast feels so slow to get to. He is still fifth semester. But he can't wait to graduate soon.

Irsyad also really can not go home either on summer holidays or other holidays. Irsyad and Kila seemed to be racing to graduate from their respective education immediately. Irsyad so, he must prioritize education to finish immediately. So, there is no more thing that prevents Irsyad to give all his time to Kila later when his education is completed. He gave all his time to his education first, and the time he used this will be paid to graduate faster and can be redeemed immediately by actually becoming a full priest Kila.

Right now, that day has arrived. The day they met through the box object called the cell phone. Video call schedules are becoming less because of the busyness of the two, making this video call a thing that is always waiting for. But, sometimes the video call is time-consuming and makes the long-awaited thing is not something you want to wait for. By the way, both of them are busy this Sunday. But, Irsyad is trying to do this routine and Kila is trying to live it. At least, take a short break to chat with your partner. That way, maybe they will be more excited to continue the busyness of each half of this routine is complete, thought the two.

Kila this time can not take the time to go to Citra's house, again. And again, Citra is a mother-in-law who does not take care of such trivial things. The image is very fully understood, not Kila's willingness to be busy and not take the time to stop by. She did so in order to pass quickly and immediately took up her duties fully as Irsyad's wife, that side is fully in view of Citra as well as Erwin to accept all the behavior of Kila who can not be said as a son-in-law.

Irsyad and Kila were talking, the same thing they always talked about. Irsyad also did not want to force Kila to go to Citra's house. Let Irsyad inform his parents later after the news with Kila.

"Crazy, you know? Looks like I'll graduate in six months" Irsyad started the story after the usual thing they discussed was finished.

"Well, good then, brother. Kila was also the target of graduating in three years, Sis," Kila responded enthusiastically

"Well, it looks like I'm going to graduate first, then," Irsyad replied no less enthusiastically.

"Not really, we'll see later," Kila said rather arrogantly.

"Hahaha, you are, yes," Irsyad responded to Kila. Then the two laughed together for a moment.

True think they, talking to a partner can add to the spirit. Kila's response like that, makes Irsyad's day better. Aaa. he wants to see Kila like this.

"It's okay? Meanin?" ask Kila back because she is confused. Irsyad seemed to give a short pause to explain his point.

"Look, I haven't been home in two years" Irsyad said in a hanging tone. He could not continue his intention, because he was too insensitive to the feelings of women, so he was afraid to choose a word that could scratch the heart of Kila.

"Yes, no papa and no problem, brother. Kila is also very busy, Kila also knows how busy Kak Irsyad is. If you can't, don't be forced. Manage the affairs of education, then just as free as Irsyad sister wants to mutusin like how," reply Kila. Actually, talks like this have often been said when approaching the holidays and can not go home. Hence, Kila was also used to reacting to it. He indirectly went to get used to the absence of Irsyad, and Irsyad's inability to return to Indonesia during the holiday was also a common thing for Kila.

"Oiya, I want to tell you again. For the next month, it seems like we can't exchange news. In addition to the research issues, there is a lot of agenda that I have to do. You don't mind us delaying our communication for a while?" ask Irsyad frankly. Seeing Kila's response that felt no objection to her previous remark, prompting Irsyad to smoothly chat other more special things.

"Yes, no papa, brother. Anyway, Kila did not want my sister to feel depressed living the day there because she thought Kila was here. Kila does not want to be an obstacle for Irsyad. So, Kila can understand and it's not a problem for Kila if it's only a temporary delay in communication. It doesn't matter forever, does it? Hahaha," said Kila steadfast, tucking laughter as a complement. But, behind that rigid tone he hid the fact that his heart was slightly scratched. It's okay that he says it indicates that there's nothing. Reduce communication by one month, it is different from those who have been communicating every day but only video calls on Sundays. What he caught from Irsyad's speech, they would delay communication for one month. That is, there are no chat messages that they usually do every day, no phone calls on the sidelines even though now they call only briefly, and lastly there is no video call. In short, there is absolutely no communication. And that's the problem that's scratching Kila's heart.

Feeling no problem with Kila's response earlier, Irsyad was relieved. He continued their conversation, and this time Irsyad asked to increase their video call time. He did it to make up for the time spent the next month. He wanted to make that communication that couldn't be done get paid now.

The next conversation discussed the ordinary things they discussed, but there were also unusual things. Like asking the news and keeping a diet. Things are not usually like asking about his eating hobby Kila and others. In this conversation Irsyad tried to choose a topic of conversation that could make Kila laugh. Although not so sensitive, Irsyad still understood with his logic that Kila must feel a little lonely later. He also wants to take responsibility for promising to keep their communication in this long distance relationship. After that, they decided to end the video call connection and continue their respective activities.

Kila is actually not as busy as the beginning of being a new student. But he has been busy lately because his online store is now selling very hard. He also helped his admin to overcome the busyness when Kila was really free.

Adding to the new busyness may be able to divert his mind that keeps thinking about Irsyad. The misses really peaked. But he could not express these feelings, he did not want to be selfish and troublesome Irsyad.
