I'm Not an Old Virgin
Season II: Mahligai Love (Chapter 10.10)
"Sa, who were you talking to?"
Sasa turned to the side, he saw Almaira coming at him with a sweet and cheerful smile on her face.
This beautiful girl once got a scholarship to continue her education in the city of Cairo, Egypt. But for some reason that did not want to be mentioned he chose to cancel the scholarship and prefer to continue his education at this boarding school.
She was smart, Sasa admitted it without hesitation though. But the intelligence of the heart and the intelligence of the mind are not easily synchronized. For example, like the incident. Tiara's tone and mannerisms had clearly shown something was wrong but due to his ambition towards Ustad Vano, his careless Almaira did not see anything wrong.
This is one of the reasons why Sasa does not want to get too close to Almaira even though he is smart and Pak Kyai's daughter. Is it with that? The fact that she was Pak Kyai's daughter and a smart girl could not mask her easily provoked nature. Friends like this are usually reliable but at the same time also unreliable.
Sasa did not want to get too close to the limit of making friends.
"Almaira." Sasa smiled back.
He followed where Almaira's eyes were looking.
"Oh, that's my cousin's sister. He happens to be a mole also here but has entered the second year." That means Sasa was one year above his cousin's sister.
"So it's true what I was expecting. You guys are family because at first glance I noticed your faces are a bit similar." Almaira chuckled, her beautiful face that glowed pink without a stain was so charming in the sun.
"really? You're the first person to say I and he look alike."
In the past, maybe he and his cousin's sister could be said to be similar in addition to there is a blood relationship. But now after experiencing a major change there was not a single stranger who thought the two of them had any resemblance so Sasa was rather amazed when he heard Almaira say words that he had not heard for a long time.
Almaira naturally sat beside Sasa. He is not at all reluctant to talk to Sasa even though he knows Sasa sometimes gives the impression of people who are not easy to approach.
"You are not similar from far away. But if you look closely you both have a little resemblance. Just a little and it's faint." Almaira explained briefly.
Sasa just smiled lightly. He opened his book again wanting to continue his delayed reading. This was also a signal for Almaira to stop talking and disturb him.
But unfortunately Almaira did not understand, or rather she pretended not to understand. He just wanted to talk to Sasa and if he could, he wanted to make a deal with Sasa.
"Em, do you know there are a lot of rumors about your proximity to Ustad Azam." Almaira deliberately discussed Ustad Azam.
Sasa smiled slightly, he closed his book for the second time with a feeling of reluctance.
"More or less like that," Almaira covered her awkward feeling with a wide smile.
"Then, are the rumors true? You two.. like us?"
Sasa did not understand, "Like you and Ustad Vano?"
He seemed to be thinking, his free-moving left hand tapping on the handle of the chair beside him. A few seconds later he smiled faintly, or rather grinned.
"True, he and I are just like you two. It's just a rumor."
Almaira's smile froze immediately. For a moment he did not say anything because he was still digesting Sasa's words earlier.
"the rumors? Will you tell me the truth?" Almaira asked while correcting her expression pretending not to know with the meaning of what Sasa wanted to convey earlier from his short answer.
Sasa smiled sweetly. He did not answer immediately but immediately stood up from his seat with a book that he still embraced.
"Didn't I say it earlier, the truth is just like yours. Oh," he saw his cousin's sister walking back to him.
"It seems I should go to the library immediately to accompany my cousin's sister to study. Do you want to come with us, Almaira?"
Almaira stood up from her seat. He smiled broadly at Sasa, acting as if he was not at all bothered by Sasa's words just now.
"No need, I don't want to disturb the two of you together. I'm going back home to talk to Umi about something." Almaira refused in a friendly manner.
Sasa did not force.
"Of course, please send my regards to Umi later. Tell him tonight I and the others will take the time to stop by."
"Inshaa Allah, I will deliver it. Then, assalamualaikum." Almaira said her regards before leaving.
"Mosur." Reply Sasa was still standing in place looking at the owner of the slender back moving away from his sight.
