When she got to the front of the campus, Alfina rushed into her classroom, knowing that she was ten minutes late for her first class this morning. Alfina hopes that no lecturer has entered her classroom, because yesterday there was an announcement in the whatsapp group that the lecturer who teaches in Alfina class today is not present. But what if there was a lecturer who took the place of teaching in his class today?
"God is Alfina afraid." Alfina in the Heart
During this time Alfina was never late when entering college hours especially if there are morning courses she will leave at 6 from home to campus. But today is very different from the day before.
When he arrived at the campus alfina rushed down the hallway to his classroom. Right in front of the class the door was closed, Alfina had guessed that in the class there was a lecturer who taught, but she did not know who the lecturer who replaced the course today. Alfina was tired because he had run from several faculty buildings on campus.
"Assynoga". Greetings Alfina while opening her classroom door slowly
"Vaalaikumussalam". Answer the students in the class. Alfan immediately saw who the student who dared to be late when his college eyes were today. Does he not know if this morning there was an announcement if his class was replaced by a new lecturer on campus
"Why are you late?". Say Alfan flatly
"Ma - sorry sir, I had to drive someone home first, because he suddenly got sick when he met me on the way to campus". Alfina replied timidly
Seeing the lecturer in front of him who did not speak, Alfina slowly raised her head to see who the lecturer who had replaced his lecture eyes today.
Deg ...
At that moment his lecturer also looked at himself with a cold and flat gaze. Aware of her actions, Alfina quickly turned her gaze away from the lecturer. Alfina can only resign if she is given a sentence or given a task by her lecturer, because she knows she has violated the rules set by the lecturer.
"Well, I accept your excuses, finish the course meet me in the room, and now please sit down". Said Alfan firmly
"Good sir thank you". Reply Alfina politely
"Who's your name?" Alfan asked when he saw that Alfina had already occupied his stool
"Alfina Eliza Humaira, sir". Alfina answered Alfan
Alfan was silent for a moment when he heard Alfina mention her full name. Alfan felt strange by the name as if it had ever existed in his mind. Then Alfan nodded in response to Alfina's reply.
"For everyone to do the task of making a paper about management discussion, collect tomorrow morning in my email". Alfan's word to all his students
"Good sir". Answer all students in class
Alfina breathed a sigh of relief, finally she was allowed into her class even though it was too late. Alfina was quick to give thanks in her heart, because the lecturer still gave himself the opportunity to learn.
"All courses today have been completed, and for those of you who are late please meet me in the room now". Alfan said flatly before leaving the classroom and saw Alfina briefly looking down
"Okay sir, I'll be there soon". Answer Alfina
***
Alfina quickly went down the stairs to her lecturer's room. He does not want to be late again he could be given a double penalty later. Actually Alfina did not know where the lecturer's room was, he tried to find out by asking one of the guards on the campus.
"Assalamualaikum sir". Greetings Alfina to the middle-aged man
"Waalaikumussalam, what's wrong, son?". Answer mr. Andi
"Sorry sir, I would like to ask you, Mr. Alfan's room is next to where?". Say Alfina politely
Alfina was late, but he was told by his friend Amel that the lecturer who replaced his lecture eyes today was named Muchammad Haidar Alfanani or can be called by the name of Mr. Alfan.
"The room is on the second floor next to the dean's room". Answer Mr. Andi to Alfina
"Fine sir thank you and sorry Alfina inconvenienced you". Alfina
"Together son". Reply mr. Andi
Alfina walked to the front of her lecturer's room, but she was still afraid to enter. Carefully knocking on the door and greeting, he should be kind and courteous with the lecturer because he knows that a lecturer should be respected and obeyed.
"Assynoga". Greetings Alfina while knocking on the door of her lecturer's room
"Waalaikumussalam, comein". Alfan replied to Alfina and then invited her to sit in the front seat of his desk
"What was your mistake when I was teaching?". Alfan said flat and to the point
"Sorry sir, I was late for my first day of class". Alfina replied with a bow
"If you repeat the same thing as before, I'll give you a D on my course". Expose Alfan firmly and flatly
Alfina who was told like that then gripped her robe firmly. Only this first time he was firmly reprimanded by his lecturer.
"I'm sorry and I promise I won't do it again". Lirih Alfina with her head down. He did not dare look at his lecturer. At this moment Alfina felt sad even her eyes had dewy from earlier, but she could bear not to cry. Alfina is indeed weak she will easily cry if there is someone who snapped or scolded her. But he will try to respect and accept the consequences, because the one who advised him this time is his own lecturer.
"Okay I understand you, if there are no more courses please go home". Alfan to Alfina. Actually Alfan felt unbearable when he saw Alfina who had just kept her head down, even she almost cried. But as a lecturer he must be firm with his students so that they can be more disciplined and respect the time.
"Thank you sir, once again I apologize for my mistake, I say to Assalamualaikum". Greetings Alfina, saying goodbye
"Vaalaikumussalam". Answer Alfan
After Alfina came out of her room Alfan felt strange since the student entered her class earlier. Why the woman's full name was no stranger to him. It was only this first time that Alfan thought of someone who was not his mahram. He quickly said Istighfar in his heart.
"Astaghfirullahaladzim, forgive the servant of Allah". Alfan in the heart

Now Alfina is in the campus garden with her best friend Amel. Amel had intended to wait for Alfina here since her best friend had gone to see her lecturer.
"Why are you? You're nothing like Alfan?". Amel asked Alfina
Alfina shook her head "I don't have a papa". Answer Alfina
"If not papa why are your eyes watering? You cry, huh?". Amel was curious to see his best friend
"No, I was just given the same advice Mr. Alfan if I can't be late again". Alfina
"Why do you cry?". Said Amel again
"I don't cry, I'm just sad". Answer Alfina
"Oh yes my best friend this one is indeed crybaby, very easy to cry". Papar Amel hugged Alfina
"What's Mel?". Reply Alfina while rubbing the corner of her watery eyes
"Don't be sad again later the beauty is gone loh". Said Amel while laughing because he saw his best friend's face reddened
Alfina and Amel were like siblings. They have been friends since the days of Junior High until college now. The two of them are always together so not infrequently many think that they are both twin brothers when they are not. Alfina her son is quiet meek, while Amel her best friend she has a slightly bar-bar nature.
"What time do you work today?". Ask Amel
"I left at two in the afternoon, so I went straight to work". Answer Alfina
"I'll take her?". Bargain Amel to Alfina
"Don't mel anymorean your home with the workplace I'm different direction, later you will be a distance home". Alfina to Amel
"Are you okay to go alone?". Ask Amel worried
"It's okay you just calm down". Reply Alfina with a smile
During this time Amel was his best friend who delivered him to his workplace, although sometimes Alfina had refused, but Amel still Keukeh to deliver him. For this time let him set out alone on the ojek, because Alfina does not want to constantly trouble her best friend Amel.
"Yes, you've been careful about leaving". Amel's Speech to Alfina
"You're also careful to go home, remember not to speed around with the car". Alfina warned Amel
"My best friend is very attentive to me, okay I will not speed, so you just calm down". Reply Amel while hugging Alfina
"If so I go first Assalamualaikum". Pamit Alfina's
"Vaalaikumussalam ukhty". Amel answered, half screaming
Amel was grateful to be able to befriend Alfina, because thanks to alfina he established his heart to migrate since High School. Alfina always had a positive impact on him so he always learned to deepen the knowledge of Islam. The Alfina he knew had always been humble, courteous, and meek. Amel hoped that his friendship with Alfina would eventually reach God's Heaven.
