I'm Not an Old Virgin
Season II: Mahligai of Love (Chapter 16.5)
Sasa was a good girl and Asri would not be able to break her heart. In addition, he also knows himself enough, from social class to feelings, Kevin is far from his reach. Kevin is a respectable man who comes from a rich family and Sasa makes no difference, besides Kevin and Sasa are engaged, engaged, they liked each other so how could Asri force her presence between the two of them?
She's not that kind of girl. He could not be selfish even if it concerned his heart.
Khanza looked at the awkward face of Asri who was now bowed to the ground. As a woman, she honestly did not feel good to ask Asri to stay away from Kevin. Moreover Asri is a good girl, she is open to everyone and more importantly, she is not as stubborn as Tiara and Almaira.
But if you remember the sad face of Sasa yesterday, Khanza is more and more heartless if you do not reveal it to Asri. He wants Asri to stay away from Kevin as far as possible for Sasa and for Sasa's happiness.
"Sak Sasa loves Kevin very much. That feeling has existed since they were still in Junior High. So, I really hope you appreciate my brother's feelings. Even though you are determined to stay away from Kevin, keeping your distance is not enough. I want you to start ignoring it every time you meet and if you want, look for another male santri to create a rumor or what so that Sasa doesn't think badly of you anymore."
Why should I do this?
Asri felt this was a bit unfair to her. Even if he stays away from Kevin, he will never bring himself down by creating rumors or anything that could ruin both sides' names.
Asri does not want to do that, he has decided to stay away then that means he will really stay away. So why create a rumor?
"I'm sorry, brother, I can't." Asri refused firmly.
"I really like Kevin but my race is not contemptible, I will not do something that can interfere with the relationship of Kak Sasa and Kak Kevin. I really appreciate them and I even really appreciate Sasa. That's why I'd rather forget Kevin than keep chasing him. And another one," Asri then stood up from his seat with a very serious expression.
Today he looks very different to the usual Asri.
"I promised to keep my distance and I will. Kak Khanza need not ask me to make rumors to make Kak Sasa's heart calm because I will never renege on the promise I made myself. I may be a countryman and very far from city life. However, even though coming from the village does not mean that my heart does not have a sense of modesty, I am the same as the santri-santri here. My heart can still see the light of truth so how can I not tell which is good and which is bad?"
Khanza was silent, for a moment he could not reply to everything Asri said because it was all true. There was no need to do useless things and he should also respect Asri's feelings.
Smile gently, "I think our conversation got here alone, assalamualaikum."
"Now I understand what Ai and Mega are feeling." His whisper was helpless, starting to lay his body on the bed before closing his eyes to force himself to fall asleep.
Hah, suddenly he misses the rain coming down immediately. When it rains his heart is a little calmer and slowly he can also be sleepy, then fall asleep with the uncomfortable feeling that is gnawing at his heart these few days.
"Asri, are you sleeping?" Ratna's voice immediately pulled Asri from the void.
Reluctant, he opened his eyes slowly. Staring at Ratna who was now standing near her bed.
"What's wrong?" Tanya Asri did not want to wake up from her barn.
"Ustazah Nur calls you. He said your father is in the office and is now waiting for you." Ratna said.
"Father's coming!" Asri immediately woke up from his barning event.
"When did my father come?" He asked while picking up a new hijab in the closet and wearing it in a hurry.
He was really happy you came to visit again to the boarding school. The last time you came here was the day you sent a variety of vegetables from their rice fields.
"I don't know, As. I'm just sending a message from Ustazah Nur to get you to the office right now." Ratna said honestly.
Asri could finally smile in relief again. He is very happy that you are here and can't wait to see him.
"Thank you, Rat. I'll go first, assalamualaikum." His greetings hurriedly came out of the room.
