"Aishi Humaira, can I talk to you for a second?" The soft voice pulled Ai from her daydream.
He was too shocked and unprepared to meet in person with the rumored changed girl close to Ustad Vano.
"Do you want to be with me?" Mega approached Ai.
Ai smiled gently, she tried to disguise her nervousness through the smile that was engraved beautifully on her lips.
"No need, Ga. I can do it myself." Said refuse.
Mega nodded lightly. He then turned to look at the beautiful girl who still did not take his eyes off Ai.
"Can, Brother." Said Ai responding to Almaira somewhat embarrassed.
He walked past his other companions to approach Almaira in front of the entrance of Fatimah RA's room.
"Thank you, I'm glad to see you. Want to talk outside?" His long, flickering eyelashes lightly blinked at the many pairs of eyes watching.
"It's too crowded and uncomfortable to talk about personal matters." The reason Almaira is quite reasonable.
Ai understand.
"I'll just follow Brother's decision." He said he didn't bother, but this was just out of the way because he was very nervous.
There were many great possibilities within his head at this moment regarding the unexpected arrival of Almaira. Broadly speaking he knows the arrival of Almaira here must be related to Ustad Vano, the man Ai loved for many years.
"Alright, then let's follow me." Almaira took the first step out followed by Ai from behind.
Along the way he stared at Almaira's slender back in front. No wonder people praised him and no wonder Ustad Vano chose him. Almaira is beautiful, her demeanor is gentle, and she is also intelligent but still humble.
When talking to Ai earlier her attitude did not show a sense of seniority like Frida. He is humble and simple, making it easy for people to feel comfortable when close to him.
Honestly speaking, Ai felt very embarrassed facing him head-on. He used to be eager to see who the lucky girl who was with Ustad Vano was. But now that Allah SWT had brought him together with Almaira, he suddenly became ashamed of himself and began to question his own qualities that were so presumptuous.
Shame on God. Inner Ai miris.
"Did Aishi know me?" They were currently walking down the swaths of rice fields that were about to enter harvest time.
This is the result of the hard work of the students who have fought hard to plant and care for it.
"I only know the name of Brother Almaira but we never met. So, can this be categorized as me knowing Big Brother?"
He had heard a lot about Almaira, a lot. Everyone admired him everywhere whether it was a male or female santri.
Almaira laughed a little. In fact, even when laughing he did not remove his graceful soft image at all.
"Aishi you are so innocent."
Almaira suddenly turned to look directly at Ai who had been obediently following her everywhere.
"Alright, then let's get acquainted so that we get to know each other. In the future, if we happen to meet, we can greet each other to expand the bonds of friendship," He then reached out his pure white right hand that was pleasing to be seen as different from Ai's which seemed like a lack of meat.
Ai momentarily fell silent watching Almaira's hand. In his heart came a question, how could he have previously been so cruel to want the man that this good girl already had?
However, is not the heart also unable to choose who will be anchored to whom?
The heart is selfish and Ai also admits it. It's just that he also knows himself enough to often pull out his feelings. Now that it was like this, would he still be able to catapult his hopes to Ustad Vano in a time when he had not found a way to his expectations?
"Aishi?" Call Almaira pull Ai from her reverie.
"Well.." Ai regained her senses, she smiled slightly before welcoming Almaira's hand.
"My name is Almaira Babgie, Ustad Vano's legal wife." Almaira's voice was very soft, her tone cheerful without any satirical or hostile tone. It was as if the words were said not to commemorate Ai.
Ai's heart suddenly throbbed pain.
Seriate..
Sorry up very-very late 🍁
