Dear Husband

Dear Husband
Meet Rosa


It was a clear morning as Sofia entered the campus gate. Today she officially became a new student at the large university campus in Indonesia. The atmosphere of a crowded campus makes its pace a little slow because it has to search for its class. Either because he was too excited or failed to focus because of a lot of thoughts, he just went up and down the stairs and surrounded the campus with empty thoughts.


"Ohh..astaga!! I'm late." he screeched hard and ran frantically through the room after room. His breath was stinged as soon as he arrived in front of the classroom door that was already tightly closed. For a moment he set his breath and ventured to knock on the door with a raging thought. This is his first day of taking courses from new lecturers as well.


"Lake in!" the voice of a man from within. Sofia researched her schedule. Why men? in Shandy's list of teachers. Not a female name, right? Sofia came in and said hello. His attention was immediately drawn to the teaching table. There, sat a 35-year-old man who was still staring straight at his lapotope. The age that can be said to be young to become a post-graduate lecturer like himself. Some of the post-graduate students in his class also have the same age as him. Sofia suspects that maybe here she is the youngest student, but it turns out there are still some under the age.


"Why are you late?" Sofia took a step back. His lips opened in surprise. The man.his eye. The online driver he met yesterday. But why is he here? with formal makeup that impressed.


"Sa..i...i.e...that is. I am confused to find his class sir." his habit of stuttering is really embarrassing. Especially in times of great importance like now. A moment of laughter echoed in the room. The lecturer stood up from his seat and approached Sofia who was still standing with her backpack.


"Can't you read? you can also ask, right?"


"enggg..i was amazed to see this big campus sir." Again, the sound of laughter echoed. Sofia's beautiful and innocent face is indeed attractive. Moreover, his words are too honest and a funny medok style when nervous to be a separate entertainment for students post-graduate who were tense earlier.


The lecturer pulled the corner of his lips, smiling. Maybe if not in class and formal atmosphere he will laugh out loud also see the new student. Sofia looked down from above. Maroon long-sleeved presbody shirts with small belt accents on the waist combined with black straight pipe pants with hijab and matching flat shoes make it look simple but pleasing to the eye.


"Today I'm sorry that this is your first day on campus. Next time there is no reason. Attention to everything, after today I do not tolerate delay for any reason. Please sit!" Sofia thanked him and sat in front of the lecturer. The only thing left there.


From the start of the class until it was over in a few minutes, Sofia was completely unable to concentrate. Not because of the nervousness of the incident, but revolved around Joseph's shadow. Is he really the Joseph he met yesterday? His mind drifted somewhere. Everything also did not escape the attention of the young lecturer. Without feeling, the corner of his lips lifted back up. I don't think the class is over. The teacher left his class.


"You....Sofiakan?" the carefree voice of a woman made Sofia reflexively turn her head.


"Rose??"


"yes.this is me." the two hugged tightly.


"During not meeting. How are you?" Sofia asked the woman named Rosa enthusiastically. How not? he who originally came to this city to attend the wedding of his best friend instead lost contact and address and ended tragically like now.


"You're so mean. I invited but did not come, disappeared and just met now. If you weren't late, maybe I didn't know it was you. Now you've changed so much Sof. Look, your clothes look expensive and classy. You can also go to specialist college. Really amazing progress and I'm glad to see you today." Cerocos Rosa nonstop. He scanned the appearance of the friend again. True, everything he wears from a well-known brand even though it still looks simple. He who has been used to seeing the look of Sofia as it was in college used to feel very amazed. Look at his best friend's face also turned pure white, not as brown as before.


"I'll tell you everything Ros. But..


did I look very unattractive? it's worth not doing it" Sofia said. What he said was true, during college maybe he was the only student who never dated because he was busy looking for odd jobs. The ending can be guessed.he is difficult to get a mate.


‘Yes."


"WHAT??????!!!! you got married without inviting me. You're a really bad friend. I'm mad at you!!" attack Rosa with lips manyun sulking sign.


"I'm sorry" Sofia said. He still feels guilty for his friend. Without the woman in front of him it was possible that he could not become the doctor he was now. God sent Rosa to help him.


"When did you get married?”


" Just like the day you got married."


"you mean? didn't you come here that day and disappear? how did you get married?" Sofia breathed deeply. He was worried, wanted to tell a story or not to his friend.


"Come on. You owe me an explanation." Rosa pulls Sofia's hand to the cafeteria and orders food for the two of them. There was still almost half an hour to get into the next class, and it was enough for them to just talk there.


Sofia recounted everything she experienced from the beginning to the present in a row without being covered up. She already thought Rosa was the best friend she could trust.


"So now you're young mistress Hutama?" Sofia.


"That means you're a lucky lady Sof. Fernando is most wanted. He dreams of many women despite being a widower. It means you have to be extra careful to take care of your husband, including the woman named Clara. You must go home and occupy your position. Don't let another woman take away your rights. Remember Sofia, the opportunity will not come twice. Defend your marriage at all costs." - Rosa's fiery advice. Sofia is just dumbstruck.


"I still need Ros' time. My heart.I must rule my heart."


"But not too long Sofia. The longer it's gonna be dangerous for you. The sooner the better. Where do you live now?" Sofia mentions Maya's home address smoothly.


"That's..not the housing complex of our lecturer Shandy sir?"


"sir Shandy?" Sofia. His mind went back to chaotic looking for the common thread of every incident he had experienced yesterday.


"Yes. Mr. Shandy Yusuf Hanggara, the handsome lecturer."


deg...Shandy Yusuf Hanggara.....Is he really Joseph??
