My student's my future husband?
(S2) Ep 24. School

That day Zaara returned to her school after about five days of absence. The girl walked down towards her deserted class. As usual, he always arrived early. A few female friends came to him when he was sitting in his chair, asking for news. It seemed like he was still under pressure after the incident, so Zaara only responded to her friends with a small smile. I wish I could get out of this school sooner, that's what I expected.

The class atmosphere gets crowded as time goes on. Many of his classmates noticed him. He just put his forehead on his folded hand, hoping that the teacher will come soon so that he will no longer be a chatter. If Arsene was next to him, maybe his solitude would not be too felt.

I don't know why he felt he needed that man by his side. Since Arsene's arrival, his day has changed. He realized his attitude was softened, especially in men. She is no longer as good as before, although she still has to maintain her honor as a firm and not soft woman. He was more fluid to his classmates. Arsene's absence beside him, made him feel lonely. Although rarely joking, they often talk about lessons and it makes him encouraged to continue studying, let alone graduation in a moment.

Remembering his general message from a hadith, “Allah is in accordance with the prejudices of His servant (HR. Mutafaq'alaih)” then he should keep the spirit of living his day. I am sure the same thing will not be repeated. So be friendly and kind to his friends, although still with his principles, he will run from today. Zaara smiled broadly full of optimism in herself, she is ready to become a better Zaara from today.

Arsene is holding her new sister, Finn, who is now out of the nursery. The baby's eyes are so clear when the eyelids are open. Arsene is very fond of small children, even since Kirei was born, he is also the one who often takes care of him when he comes home from school.

It feels like seeing the tiny face of Finn makes Arsene not want to return to Indonesia. Though Opa Gunawan is giving it a surprise, a patisserie shop is ready to launch when Arsene graduates. Opa wants to show the store building located in the city, not far from a popular university in the city of Bandung. Arsene certainly feels happy, finally his small ideals can be realized when later he manages his business. It's just that, this tiny baby's face really made him forget about time. Even all day he spent in the hospital just to watch his little sister sleep all day.

“Arsene do you want school when?” tanya Ajeng who was devouring pieces of apples.

“Hmm...” Arsene plays the hands of her sleeping sister.

“Dear Arsene! Soon you graduate, and we will also move to Bandung. Opa has been waiting for you for your ideals so far,” said Ajeng again trying to give spirit.

Arsene breathed. His mother was right, he should have returned to Indonesia soon. Moreover, he had made sure himself that the situation of his mother and sister was better. Now he has to live his normal life.

“Kata daddy, our home is only 80% more progress. That means we'll all move there soon. Moreover, the daddy business is also stable, Om Alex who will take care of all the daddy business here. While daddy can help your future business later. You must be upbeat, Brother!”

Arsene looked at her mother's beautiful face with a smile.

“Where do you want to go after school?” ask Ajeng.

“Can I go to Le Cordon Bleu?”

“Surely, Honey! You can go anywhere for your goals. As long as we can work on it, you don't have to worry. Are you sure you want to go to Paris?”

Arsene. He does not want to be away from his family. At least he can still go home once a few months to meet them. If Paris is his choice, he feels that modern old city feels far away.

“Maybe I'll grab the one in Sydney”

“That’s nice!”

The sound of Finn's cry broke that afternoon, after the baby had wriggled before to make his skin redder. Arsene immediately took the sleeping baby in the bed and gave it to her mother to breastfeed. For a moment Arsene thought, maybe tonight he should return to Indonesia.

A boisterous and bustling atmosphere was plastered on the school grounds that day. The inter-school basketball team competition has actually started since a month ago, only this time is different. The composition of the men's basketball team has changed since the entry of Rainer and several tenth graders in it.

Arsene and Rainer have returned from Singapore, bringing with them the spirit their parents burned from there. Moreover, Ferdian promised them, soon he would return to Bandung after his new home was completed.

The students filled the podium to watch their school team this afternoon. Their basketball team will be up against the team from the neighboring school. This competition is still early, and there are still many opportunities to become a champion. Rainer wore a black school basketball uniform with an ash list on his arm. The cheers of the students were even more echoed when he went out to the field with other team members.

“Raiiiiiiin!” the cry of a centile girl from the second floor, sounded loud and shrill, making the other students turn to her.

Rainer scrunched his eyes, he memorized exactly whose voice it belonged to. Who else would it be if it wasn't his most coquettish cousin, Fea.

“Raiiiiiin, semangaaaat!” shouted again. The girl was so carefree to see her handsome cousin playing there.

While Rain only let out a sigh, hoping that the girl did not disturb his concentration.

“Ayo Raiiiin!” another scream came from downstairs, from the edge of the field. This time Rain had no idea who was shouting his name.

But seeing someone waving his hand holding a jacket, the teenage boy recognized his face. That's Sera. Again he snorted, why were there noisy girls shouting his name? But he must concentrate and focus on this first game so that their team can win.

The referee blew his whistle, a sign the game was starting. Rainer starts to act when the opposing team first has a chance to get the ball. He tried to snatch from the opponent's hand when the ball was reflected by the opponent with less qualified ball control. With ease, Rainer could snatch and directly take him forward to the basketball basket, then give it to his friend. The ball was swiftly greeted by his friend so that it could be thrown into the basket, the entry points for their school.

“Rain! Rain!” his name was even more echoed after he managed to score a second point for his school.

Arsene saw his sister's match from the front porch of his class. Their classes had just disbanded that afternoon after additional lessons for the midterms preparation next week. Arsene turned his head when the tip of his eye saw Zaara passing out of the classroom. They spoke this morning. Looks like Zaara already looks better, even she smiled at him when she saw the keychain of his gift hanging in Arsene's backpack.

“Zaara!” call Arsene. The white-hijab girl looked over.

“Why?” tanyakanya.

“Whose home?” arsene asked just to make sure.

“Oh... He didn't watch the game first?”

“We need to be at home, so must go home together!” answer Zaara.

“Oooh... be careful yes!”

“Still. First yes?”

Arsene nodded and watched Zaara until her figure was lost in the crowd of students who filled the front porch of the library.

“Ciyee... crush Zaara nih!” pat Abdul from behind. Arsene surprised.

“What the hell are you guys doing? You gossip mogul!” grunts Arsene.

“It's been getting more attention lately!” timpal Fahri's.

“Aristen right? He became a victim yesterday,” said Arsene relaxed.

“Iya anyway! Yuk ah watch again. Your sister is cool playing!” puji Abdul's.

The atmosphere of the audience was getting crowded when the sun was dim shining against the clouds. The sound of excitement rumbled almost in the corner, as their school's men's basketball team won the game that afternoon.

“Duringaaaat!” someone shouted at Rainer as he drank his mineral water.

“Thanks!” rainer said briefly without looking at the girl in front of him.

“Lo record, guys team wins by a landslide!” said Sera.

“Oh yes?”

“Ya, so great you, Rain!” puji Sera's.

“That's because the team is also times!” said low.

“But since you have, the game of boys is very different anyway!” Sera still wanted to praise Rain who seemed to still respond to him.

“Raiiiiiiiin!” shouted another girl from behind and scattered her body on Rainer making his drinking bottle spill its contents hit Sera's face.

“Fea! What the hell is swerving?!” rainer protest.

“Sorry I accidentally!” say Rain to Sera. He wanted to help Sera whose face was splashed with drinking water, but could not.

“Nothing kok!” said Sera while staring intently at the girl who looks coquettish still hugging the man in front of her. He wonders.

“Lepasin Fe!” shouted Rain, while trying to take off Fea's hand on her waist..

“Great fun you play! Aaaah I really watched it!” he said cheerfully taking off that natural-looking hug.

“There home!” remove Rain on Fea.

Fea put on her pouting expression.

“Awas I reported Opa deh! Rainer fierce! Oh yeah who are you?” fea asked Sera who was wiping her face.

“Gue Sera, basketball boy too! Lu who?”

“Known me Fea, her boyfriend Rain!” said Fea put on her cute face, while embracing Rainer's arm.

“Feaaa!” furious Rain.

“Kaboooooor!”
