Ustaz Aiman stopped at a red light. A little boy offered a newspaper to Ustaz Aiman, at first this man refused, but as soon as he saw the figure of the man in the newspaper similar to Daffa, Ustaz Aiman was interested in buying the newspaper.


The sound of the car horn behind Ustaz Aiman, surprised Ustaz Aiman, and the man immediately drove his car away from the place. Ustaz Aiman had not seen the newspaper he had bought earlier, but Ustaz Aiman had already arrived at the boarding house.


Some of the students helped Ustaz Aiman to bring down all the groceries in the car. Ustaz Aiman remembered the newspaper he had bought on the road, and took it from him that he had kept in the car.


"Ustaz, everything is done" said the santriwan who helped Ustaz Aiman just now.


"Thank you, yeah." Ustaz Aiman said, everything immediately dispersed and returned to the kitchen to help the students who became pickets cooking today.


It was only Ustaz Aiman, who had the opportunity to see and read the paper. But, as Ustaz Aiman saw, this man was surprised to find out, the photo in the newspaper was a photo of Daffa, and also there was called the heir of the Adipratama family.


However, what makes Ustaz Aiman inexhaustible is, Ferdinand was reported to run away from home because of an arranged marriage. If the news is true, this is Ustaz Aiman's chance to reclaim Shanaya from Daffa's hands.


"I have to tell this to Abi, because Abi dislikes people who lie the most" muttered Ustaz Aiman, who now intends to seek Daffa first.


"I'm sorry, Aya. I didn't mean to lie to you and the others, but I had to. Aya you take it easy, after this I promise I will tell you the truth, I will also take you to meet my family, because I love you sincerely," said Daffa, said, he then hid his phone and wallet under the bed.


"So, you've been pretending in front of all of us all this time?" asked Ustaz Aiman, the arrival of Ustaz Aiman surprised Daffa, this man immediately turned to the source of the voice, and found Ustaz Aiman standing in the doorway of Daffa's room.


Of course, the arrival of Ustaz Aiman surprised Daffa. Because, other than Ustaz Aiman, no one else wanted Daffa to leave the Al-hakim boarding school.


Ustaz Aiman, throwing the newspaper he bought earlier into Daffa's face, this man caught it and immediately saw. Daffa had expected this to happen, but it happened before Daffa told the truth to Shanaya or Abi Hakim, as well as Humairah, who had sided with him to ta'aruf with Daffa.


"Why did you lie to Aya and all of us? are you just using Aya's kindness to stay here? it's all just your personal interests, isn't it?" utstaz Aiman said, out loud.


In fact, Ustaz Aiman had already notified Abi Hakim via a mobile phone call, considering Abi Hakim was still outside the boarding house at this time.


"No, Ustaz Aiman. I never had any intention of taking advantage of everyone here. I sincerely liked and wanted to ask Aya, and everything Ustaz Aiman said, it was all untrue" Daffa denied, but Ustaz Aiman instead displayed a mocking smile upon hearing Daffa's words.


"So, you mean Ustaz Aiman who lied?"


Ustaz Aiman and Daffa turned their heads simultaneously when they heard the voice of Abi Hakim. Not only Abi Hakim, it turns out Humairah and Shanaya are also in the place, they both follow Abi when Abi Hakim just returned from his meeting outside the boarding school.


"Abi Hakim," said Daffa, looking at everyone. Shanaya looked at Daffa in disbelief, Shanaya felt lied to by Daffa.


"Is that amnesia also you're pretending?" asked Humairah, Daffa fell silent and looked towards Shanaya, this woman looked at Daffa with utter disappointment.


Daffa was silent, not answering a question from Humairah.


"If you keep quiet, that means you're asking the Ukhti Humairah question, Daffa?" Ustaz Aiman asked again.


"Ustaz Aiman, why are you so happy to corner me? I admit I was wrong, because I lied, but what you were accusing was not true, I never used anyone here, including Aya, because I sincerely wanted to propose to her" Daffa said, Shanaya has not made any comment to everyone, regarding the matter at hand.


"What does this newspaper also include? here it says that Ustaz Daffa, run away from home because of an arranged marriage, while you confess to me, if you're single, is that right, Ustaz Daffa?" now it was Abi Hakim's turn to ask, Daffa had no more defense, while everything in the newspaper was true.


Shanaya was disappointed with Daffa, who had lied to her, Daffa had plenty of time before to apologize, and tell the truth, but Daffa instead chose to keep quiet and let all his lies continue. Shanaya left the room.


"Shane!"
