Handsome Ceo's Secretary of Choice
Chapter 7. Rania's heart
Hello good morning, I'm coming again. Welcome to read yes 🤗
...***...
Rania's days went on as usual. He was happy Khanif was always there beside him when he was in trouble. However, all of Rania's assumptions on Khanif changed on the day most awaited by a third grade high school student. Yeah, it was Khanif's graduation day.
On that day, Rania gave herself to express all her feelings to Khanif. Honestly, Rania could no longer keep the sense she had hidden for a long time. Especially when he knew that khanif would not go to school with him anymore.
Armed with courage, Rania wrote a letter to Khanif that said he was waiting for Khanif in the back garden of the school. Inwardly, he hoped Khanif would come to see him.
He was already anxiously awaiting the arrival of Khanif. Even a lot of questions had popped into his mind earlier. Like, did Khanif read the letter? is Khanif coming? And there are many more that Rania can't pin down.
It's been almost two hours since Rania was in the park behind the school. He waited patiently and always assured in his heart that Khanif would come even though Khanif's arrival might be too late. But until the day went by, Khanif showed no signs of coming to see him. Doldrumsily, he left the back garden of the school.
On the way home, Rania stopped to see Khanif talking to Tasya. Of course Rania was sad to see it. He was busy waiting for someone who did not come to him. But how else, he must not force his will on others to follow his wishes. He preferred to stay away from there and hurry home. Resting his tired body.
Without Rania realizing it, Khanif had actually read her letter and seen Rania waiting for her in the back garden of the school. Without Rania knowing too, Khanif had been there long enough, as long as Rania was waiting for him. It's just that Khanif doesn't want to see him. He just wanted to see Rania from a distance.
I don't know, he doesn't seem to want to listen to the words Rania will say to him after he read Rania's letter that says 'Assalamualaikum kak Khanif, sorry to interrupt. I am Rania, a sister class sister and son of an osis member. Brother remembered? I hope my brother remembers me.'
At that time Rania smiled seeing word for word he wrote for Khanif. Then, he continued his incision on the white paper. 'From the beginning I met my sister, she was very kind to me. In fact, when no one wants to care about me, my brother blatantly cares about me. I love getting to know my sister and impressing me. For that, I would like to thank my sister. As a last note, I hope you come to see me in the back garden of the school after the graduation ceremony.
Warm regards from Rania.'
Rania ended her writing with a flowery heart. But it is different from Khanif's response. He seemed not to care much about what Rania wrote to him.
Khanif just stepped his foot away from there when he saw Rania move from his seat. But on the way out of the back garden of the school, Tasya saw him and approached him. Not wanting Rania to see him there and not wanting Tasya to know his intentions, he took Tasya to go near the school parking lot.
There he saw Rania looking at him. But again Khanif did not want to say hello to Rania. He let Rania leave because he himself had his own plan ahead.
A few days have passed. Khanif graduated from school. Of course with the highest value. He was able to achieve it thanks to his hard work and perseverance in learning. With the support and prayers he always prayed for and his parents.
Currently, he was in the principal's room to certify the diploma he had been fighting for with his other friends. When he just came out of the principal's room, he accidentally passed Rania.
They were both surprised.
"I'm sorry" they said together.
Awkwardness had occurred between them, but it was only for a moment because Rania rushed into the headmaster's room.
I don't know, Rania has any business in the headmaster's room to make Khanif wait for him long in front of the room. Yes, Khanif feels today is the day he is waiting for when he in the past has his own plans. Honestly, he didn't want to make Rania embarrassed. For this reason, he just said it now.
Khanif raised a small smile before he could be seen by Rania who just came out of the principal's room. Khanif stood up to Rania.
"Can you come with me for a second?" khanif said, hoping that Rania would follow him.
Rania nodded. He followed Khanif's footsteps, who knew where Khanif would take him. After a long walk, Rania was stunned. He just realized, it turns out Khanif took him to the park behind the school.
Rania nodded while smiling awkwardly.
"Why did you take me to this park?"
"I want to apologize to you for not coming to see you at that time, even though I have read your letter."
Rania was again stunned, she did not expect it to turn out that Khanif had read a letter from her. "It's okay brother. The letter is not so important anymore. Oh yes, why did you call me here," said Rania to divert the conversation.
Khanif looked straight ahead. After a long time of weighing, Khanif finally began to say what he wanted to tell Rania all this time.
"sorry. I want to apologize."
Rania interrupts Khanif's remark, "sorry for what sister?"
"I'm sorry for not being able to return your feelings."
Rania wanted to respond, but as soon as possible Khanif continued his remark, "I can already guess from the contents of your letter. But sorry, I just think of you as a junior, nothing more."
Rania's eyes glazed over to hear Khanif's expression on her. With a hoarse voice, he began to voice in response to Khanif's remark, "is it because I am fat and I am less beautiful?"
"No, I open people who look at others with physical judgment."
"So, why did you reject me?"
"Your future and mine are long. I just don't want to be tied to any relationship. After all, you also must have goals that you want to achieve later. So is it with me. Right now I'm focused on my ideals first."
"Sister and I can go through it slowly," Rania clung to her opinion.
Khanif smiles. He then turned to Rania and looked directly into her bead.
"It's not as easy as you say. I just want to give you advice. Never throw away your future, just for a moment," Khanif said he intended on a teenage courtship.
Now Rania could not hold back her tears anymore. His feelings are completely destroyed. But what Khanif said was true. He cannot deny that. Then slowly, he saw a hand outstretched before him with his handkerchief.
"Remove your tears. I'll go now."
After Rania receives Khanif's handkerchief, Khanif leaves Rania, who is feeling sad.
