I'm Not an Old Virgin
Season II: Mahligai of Love (Chapter 14.9)
"Then why don't you take it?"
Ai was nervous, her head was getting bowed not daring to look at Ustad Vano. His two hands that were holding tightly to the paper bag began to sweat, he was very nervous unable to speak. Asked why?
The answer is for sure because he does not want to always be stuck with Ustad Vano, because then he will continue to think if Ustad Vano puts his taste to him. Ai, could not catapult this dream anymore because she knew for sure that she really did not deserve to be with him.
"You haven't opened the paper bag yet and haven't seen the gift, so what's the reason you refused my gift?" Ustad Vano asked again, his tone this time was more demanding than before.
He wanted to know what reason Ai had refused his gift. Honestly, he was angry and upset. Her mood was bad for a few things. But when he remembered Ai his heart felt much better that's why he came here in order to dim the anxiety in his heart. But who would have thought if his arrival would actually bear sour fruit?
Ai refuses the gift from him and seems reluctant to talk to him. Ustad Vano was obviously a patient man - no, rather he was a very patient man. But everyone has a limit of patience and this also applies to Ustad Vano. He is possessive and selfish when it comes to Ai, he does not want to be harmed when it comes to Ai, and he does not like to be confused when it comes to Ai.
For him Ai has become his world, the world he built himself since the first time he met Ai, a sweet and gentle girl with all the advantages given by Allah SWT. Before meeting Ai, he was a flat boy with many sets of dreams of the world without knowing the afterlife. However, after meeting Ai, he is a boy with a wide variety of colors adorning his days. Meeting Ai leads him to know the afterlife and fall in love with God. He became a man who loved science, pursued the pleasure of God, and continued to strengthen himself in order to be with Ai, a very special creature of God.
After all he had done to get to this day how could he possibly be willing to let Ai off just like that?
Don't joke, didn't Ustad Vano ever say that he was a selfish and possessive person when it came to Ai?
True, Ustad Vano wanted to be the only person who could stand up for Ai, be a world for Ai, be a source of happiness for Ai, and be the most comfortable place for Ai to lean on.
He wanted to fulfill everything for Ai.
"Is it because you have now turned to liking someone better than me?" These words unknowingly Ustad Vano spoke, he let go and made Ai very surprised.
"Ustad..." Ai momentarily had trouble saying her words.
How could he possibly turn away so easily?
Only God knows how much he feels about Ustad Vano and only God knows how long his patience awaits the arrival of Ustad Vano, God knows everything so how could he be so easily turned away at a time when the world and his heart already belonged to Ustad Vano?
"What did Ustad say? I never liked anyone."
Ustad Vano then demanded, "If it's true, then why did you refuse a gift from me without having the time to open and see the contents, Aishi?"
Wh why?
"Ustad," Ai took a deep breath before continuing her words.
It feels so heavy.
"Please don't give me any more attention." Said Ai trying to make her voice as loud as possible.
Ustad Vano couldn't take it.
"Why? Answer me honestly. Otherwise, I'd be really mad, Ai."
Ai closed her eyes in fear.
"This is the best decision for Ustad Vano. By keeping my distance from me, the image of Ustad Vano here will not be polluted. Ustad Vano won't get any bad rumors"
"Aishi Humaira!" Cut Ustad Vano really mad.
"Are you sure this is the best decision? Are you sure that by keeping your distance from you everything will be fine? Are you sure?" Ustad Vano is demanding.
Ai was overwhelmed by Ustad Vano's sharp attitude tonight. He was at a loss for words to explain everything. He really can't unless he confesses his feelings!
This way Ustad Vano will completely move away from him and they can live each other's lives in peace.
"Bad rumors today, I know Ustad Vano has heard it all." Said Ai suddenly talking about another topic.
Ustad Vano was silent. He looked at Ai with a calmer expression than before.
"I haven't heard it." Ustad Vano denied.
He had been looking around for Kevin to talk about this rumor but the person he was looking for was not here and permission to go out of the cabin. Then he looked for Hana to talk about this rumor, he was sure Hana would also know about this rumor. But instead of answering her curiosity, Hana asked him to come to Ai directly. He did not want to say it unless Ustad Vano asked Ai directly.
As a result, in addition to calming his agitated heart, the purpose of Ustad Vano coming here is to talk about rumors that Kevin has not had time to say. Whether Ai was reluctant to mention the matter or not, she would force Ai to talk things over without needing anything to cover up.
