"This is a poem for you, Mr. Adelio!" celestia shouted that morning.
By eliminating the tremors in both legs and hands because of nervousness, Celestia ventured to read a special love poem to the killer lecturer, Mr. Adelio. All Celestia did to get good grades and also Mr. Adelio would accept the results of the papers he had worked on.
Celestia is currently watched by many students at the Faculty. Celestia was already unconcerned with all the pairs of eyes that were staring at her with a look of condescension. A woman is considered really desperate when she dared to say love to a man. Moreover, this a student expressed love to his own lecturer.
Celestia read Jalaluddin Rumi's poem aloud before reciting her own love poem.
I choose to love you in silence
Because in silence there will be no rejection
I choose to love you in loneliness
Because in loneliness no one else has you but me
I choose to adore you from a distance
Because the distance protects me from liking
I choose to kiss you in the wind
won't my lips also feel tenderness for the sake of the wind?
I chose to have you in my dreams
In dreams you will never die
(Jalaluddin Rumi, Love in Silence)
"What's up with Celestia, anyway? Is he crazy? Is it true that Celestia has always liked the young handsome lecturer?" said one of the students in one major with Celestia.
"Eitherway! I think it's because yesterday Mr. Adelio refused the paper assignment from Celestia because Celestia was late for class. While the morning lecture by Mr. Adelio has begun," said another student friend.
Celestia recited her own poetry. Mr. Adelio has not yet come out of the lecturer's room. Though the atmosphere began to row because of the work of Celestia. Even students from other majors such as English majors participated in seeing Celestia's reckless action. Celestia is like a monkey mask that is crowded with many students and lecturers.
"Such a girl's guts! I salute, mentally strong and brave enough to read a love poem to a lecturer in front of his student friends and faculty lecturers," said one of the lecturers who pay attention to Celestia.
"Really, mom!? But did Mr. Adelio not want to come out after one of his students was desperate to read love poems like this?" sahut the other lecturer.
"I think Mr. Adelio is still in his room setting his heart rhythm because suddenly there is a woman expressing love towards Mr. Adelio," said the female lecturer.
"Hehehe, Mr. Adelio is old enough to give up his single life. Is Mr. Adelio interested in one of his students to be his life companion," said the male lecturer.
"Well, let's see the show this morning. Who knows, this student did a silly action because it was told by Mr. Adelio himself. Given Mr. Adelio a lecturer of literature," said the female lecturer.
"Young people are now reckless and brave enough! I really salute with the spirit of the student," said the male lecturer.
"He's Celestia Belinda" said the lecturer.
Celestia is back to reading her love poems. While students and lecturers were still seeing the free show that morning.
Suddenly, boisterous applause from all students and lecturers gave appreciation for the reckless actions of Celestia. Celestia gazed around her she was currently already a free spectacle that morning. Celestia suddenly blushed red on her face. Celestia is still standing waiting for an answer from Mr. Adelio. But Mr. Adelio did not also come out of his room. Until finally one of the lecturers disbanded the crowd after Celestia finished doing her show.
"Let's disperse! Show's done!!" said one of the male lecturers who was about forty years old. After dispersing the crowd of students, the male lecturer named Pak Slamet approached Celestia who was still standing in front of the lecturer's room.
"That's enough show, miss! The poem is good. His passion and inspiration are pretty cool. You can go and can attend the lecture this morning, if you have a lecture at this hour," said Mr. Slamet.
"Thank you very much sir!? Uh, um I'm sorry sir!?" sahut Celestia's. Celestia quickly passed by leaving the place. But before Celestia went any further, Mr. Slamet said.
"I personally strongly agree and support if you and Mr. Adelio really match and become a married couple in the future" said Mr. Slamet.
"Eh??" Celestia was surprised not to play with the words of Mr. Slamet. Mr. Slamet chuckled at the sudden change in Celestia's face to become as red as a boiled crab.
Celestia immediately ran from that place. He is very embarrassed if it is really considered by everyone that he likes Mr. Adelio.
"I feel like I'm just going to disappear from this world. I've really been humiliated by Mr. Adelio. Just be careful if tomorrow the promised value does not come out A. I'll sue him" muttered Celestia.
*****
While in his room, Mr. Adelio smiled triumphantly. He was very satisfied to work with one of his students.
"Pretty brave too the girl! All righty! A value I will give to him in the course of literary appreciation," muttered Mr. Adelio.
Geck.
Geck.
Geck.
"Sir Adelio, can I come in?" said Mr. Slamet immediately entered the room of Mr. Adelio after previously knocking on the door of the room Mr. Adelio.
"Eh, Mr. Slamet, let's have a seat, sir!?" sahut pak Adelio's. Mr. Slamet sat down with a big smile staring into the face of Mr. Adelio.
"That student was so cool to read her poem sir!? Besides, he was quite brave. Does Mr Adelio like that student?!" said mr. Slamet. Mr. Adelio scratched his non-itchy head.
"Eh, um? How could I like my own student, Mr. Slamet! My reputation could be ruined as an educator" Adelio said.
"Hahaha, why not? The student was pretty and you were young too. There is no harm in a lecturer liking his own student. Even he has dared to express his love to Mr. Adelio. Does Mr. Adelio have the heart to reject his love statement?" said Mr. Slamet trying to corner Mr. Adelio.
"Eh?? Shit shit!? Why is it like this anyway?" mind mr. Adelio.
"I pray that Mr. Adelio and Celestia are paired" said Mr. Slamet.
"Huh? Celestia!?" sahut pak Adelio's.
"Really! The student was named Celestia, Mr. Adelio! Mr. Adelio don't pretend amnesia dong!" said Mr. Slamet while patting Mr. Adelio's shirt. After teasing Mr. Adelio, Mr. Slamet came out of Adelio's room with a smile full of satisfaction.
"Hahaha loves to do her student work. I'm working my way back" muttered Mr. Slamet.
