My student's my future husband?

My student's my future husband?
Episode 37's


The final semester exam has been completed. It is time for students to relax for a moment and their minds to meet a new semester that will definitely be harder. The campus which is usually crowded is filled with students in every faculty building, now only visited by lecturers, staff and interested students only.


Ferdian decided to control the cafe and also one of the restaurants that were also part of his business. While Ajeng still has work to guide final semester students to complete the script. He sat in one of the chairs in a special room of the library filled with collections of books that could not be borrowed.


"Good Morning, Miss! Sorry I'm late!" said a male student in the 9th semester, his body is tall and his face looks like a crossbreed, whether European or American, Nathan, his name.


"Good Morning's! Please sit!" The students were invited to sit in front of him.


"Where's your script?" asked Ajeng after just the student in front of him was sitting his body.


Nathan took out the script files he had been working on and gave them to Ajeng.


"It's Miss! I've been working on chapter 4 and chapter 5 as well, please be corrected!" said nervous.


Ajeng pay attention to his writings carefully, trying to understand between paragraphs one with another, whether continuous or not. But apparently, the student in front of him was already very master of the literary theory he used as well as its implementation of the literary work he took. Not too many problems also from the results of his neat and structured writing.


"Nice! You've mastered it, haven't you?"


"Yes Miss!" the answer.


"The sipp! Looks like we can be sure, you can go ahead next month's trial, ready?" ask Ajeng.


"Next month, huh? Well, Miss, I'll prepare!"


"Goody! You can go to graduation this year if you graduate, good luck?" Ajeng gives spirit.


"Thank you Miss!"


Ajeng gave his approval for Nathan's thesis to be submitted to a team of student examiners. He also told him to immediately give his scientific work before the fasting month arrived. So it could be finished sooner.

It has long been felt that the Winata Grand Family did not hold a family gathering event, especially after Ajeng and Ferdian got married.


That morning, Ajeng looked nervous to attend her husband's big family event. Understandably, this is the first time Ajeng can get together and meet the Ferdian family. He checked the makeup on his face many times, also ascertaining whether the dress he was wearing was fitting or not. Ferdian, who saw that, held Ajeng's arm and looked at him.


"You seem nervous, don't you?"


"Sorry Fer, I am most nervous when participating in a rich gini event," said Ajeng honestly.


"Nothing, it's rare! Usually once a year after Lebaran, but since we're newly married, I feel obliged to introduce you to his extended family,"


"Yes, I understand! Help me, Fer?!"


"Sure!"


Ferdian's car had arrived at a magnificent mansion with a spacious courtyard It was the house belonging to his grandfather, where all the Winata family would gather there.  Ferdian got out of the car and walked with Ajeng. Both seem to be compatible with each other. Ferdian wore a casual navy suit with an ash shirt and jeans. While Ajeng looks graceful and elegant with a silver knee-length dress with a beautiful brocade bolero. They walked hand in hand toward Ferdian's grandfather's residence.


"Hi, your son and daughter-in-law have come!" greet Mother Bella in the hall room of Ferdian's grandfather, Mr. Marta.


Ajeng kissed the back of her in-laws' hands and kissed her right and left cheeks.


"You're so pretty, Jeng!" praise Mother.


"Thank you, Bun!"


"Yuk we go to the backyard, already at the gathering of all," invite Mother to take the two of them to the backyard where the event is held.


Right said Mother. All the families had gathered, they were chatting at the round table that had been provided. Indeed there are not many families, maybe about 20-30 people from Winata's extended family, including their grandchildren and great-grandchildren.


"Is she our newlywed, healthy, Fer?" tanya Om Sakti, brother-in-law of Mr. Gunawan, Ferdian's father.


"Thank God be healthy, Om!" answer Ferdian. Ajeng greeted him.


Both greet all existing relatives, who have filled the available seats.


"Hi, Bang Dre, Bang Nick, how are you?!" ask Ferdian to his cousins Andre and Nicky.


"Okay, Fer! Well you, I came to Indonesia was already married. Lose us!" said Andre elbowed his brother's arm..


"Yes, how come we older are the same as you anyway?!" Nicky.


"Haha, so don't go to school! I'm also in school but I'm married, fun, right?"


"Ah basic, if we choose our own candidate, not your rich betrothed!" Nicky.


"I chose myself too!" timpal Ferdian won't lose.


They laughed when they hadn't seen each other for a long time. Understandably Andre and Nicky live abroad to continue their studies.


"The plan is later I move here anyway, I was accepted to be a lecturer at your campus," Andre said.


"Seriously?! You want to be a lecturer at my college?" ask Ferdian not to believe.


"Yes! Right!" replied Andre sure.


"Oh yes this knows my wife, Ajeng Chandra, my lecturer as well!" Ferdian introduced his wife after Ajeng had a conversation with Mother, because the two cousins did not come to his wedding at that time.


"Hi, hello!" sapa Ajeng is friendly.


Andre stared fixedly at Ajeng, as if he had met the woman.


"Say Andre will work on our campus as a lecturer" Ferdian told his wife.


"Oh yeah? What is the plan to teach at what faculty?" ask Ajeng.


"English literature!" answer Andre.


Instantly it made the two couples turn their backs enthusiastically.


"Wow, seriously?"


"Yes, I'm serious, of course!" replied Andre casually.


\=====


"Ajeng huh?" asked a woman in her 50s, she sat beside Ajeng, when Ferdian momentarily left her to talk to her eldest brother, Damian.


"Yes right, Aunt Siska huh?" Ajeng.


The tall curled woman with the bright red lipstick smiled. As far as Ajeng is concerned, Aunt Siska is the sister-in-law of her father Ferdian.


"Where are you pregnant?" tanyanya, make Ajeng a little surprised.


"No, Auntie!" answer Ajeng briefly smiled small.


"You delayed intentionally?" guess what, made Ajeng nervous.


"Why Auntie?"


"Yes, you work, right? Ferdian's still in college too, you guys must have a momongan on purpose,"


That's exactly Aunt Siska's answer. But somehow his heart so scattered to respond to the question. The teacher just smiles.


"It shouldn't be delayed. You know, your in-laws don't have grandchildren yet. Although Damian and Resha, her brother Ferdian was already in marriage, but both did not have children because everything was busy," said the woman without looking at her interlocutor.


"Yes, but this is also our plan at least until Ferdian graduates from college" Ajeng replied hesitantly.


"How come Gunawan is always looking for a mate for his children, always a busy person?"


Ajeng was silent.


"Business is business! I really don't want my son to be betrothed to your rich," he explained, making Ajeng feel uncomfortable.


"I'm going to the back first, yeah Jeng!" pamitnya later.


"Good Auntie!" Ajeng felt a little relieved because of that.


"Hey, can you sit here?" asked Andre while the one carrying a plate containing pieces of chocolate cake.


"Please!"


"So really, you also taught at the Faculty of Letters, University of Mentari?"


"Yes, right!"


"When have you been there?"


"A little over 3 years ago, but initially the apprenticeship was!" terang Ajeng's.


"Is it new too?"


"Yes tolerable. Why did you decide to teach at Mentari University?" tanya Ajeng was curious, she drank her fruit cocktail.


"This is the recommendation of Ferdian's mother, he said there is still a shortage of young lecturers, is it?"


"Yes right, we are only four of us who are counted as young" said Ajeng.


"That's it,"


"So when did this Bang Andre start teaching?"


"Early semester tomorrow!"


"Oooh... great, we'll be coworkers later huh?!"


"Yes, can't wait for new adventure (can't wait to get a new adventure)!" said the man in the dark gray shirt.


"Oh yes, if you know how old you are, Ajeng?" andre looked at him.


"I'm 25 years old" Ajeng replied, slipping his hair into his ear.


"Oh yeah?!"


Andre smiled, "Call me Andre?"


"OK!"


"Your face is very similar to someone I knew in High School time," said Andre noticed Ajeng's face, making the woman feel a little awkward.


Just smile, "His face is the market?"


"Haha, no, it means similar! I remember my friend, her son was funny!" replies Andre feeds his mouth with a cake on his plate.


"Andre, I'm sorry if you'll excuse me!" said Ajeng after he realized her husband did not come back.


"Oh yes, please!"


Ajeng walked around looking for the figure of Ferdian, because since then the cellphone left in his wife's bag continues to sound. But he was not in the yard, maybe he was in his grandfather's house. He also asked his other relatives, but they did not know where Ferdian was.


Ajeng entered the magnificent house that looks classic, like his parents' house. However, the size of his grandfather Ferdian's house was much larger 2 or 3 times. Typical teak furniture dominates the interior in every room.


"Where are you going?" call a woman's voice, the voice of Tania, Ferdian's sister-in-law Mas Damian's wife.


"I want to find Ferdian, Brother Tan, you see?" tanya Ajeng kaku's.


"Oh Ferdian above, still talking to Mas Damian, will you wait?"


"Oh, I've been waiting outside again,"


"Here, talk to me here," asked Tania. The woman with wavy hair invited her to sit on the sofa of a spacious central room, the walls of the room were heavily decorated by the photos of the Winata family. From the first child to the fifth child. Ferdian's father was the 4th child of Grand Lord Marta Winata, the deceased, an upper-class businessman of Japanese-Chinese-Javanese descent.


He looked at the family photos one by one. He smiled when he saw the photo of little Ferdian sitting next to his mother, funny. She certainly still remembers her husband's little face because they met often.


"You just got here, huh?" asked Tania, the woman has a tall and slim body. Her face is beautiful and her appearance is elegant. He was about 30 years old.


"Yes, sister, this is the first time I've been here" Ajeng replied sitting on a beige sofa.


"So how did you feel after becoming Mrs Ferdian?" tanya Tania is friendly.


"Where is it? Mix it up, brother! You know, he's my student" Ajeng replied with a small laugh.


"Haha, it must have felt a bit strange and awkward, right?" guess Tania.


"It's right, brother,"


"What campus do people still know you're married?" tanya Tania was curious.


"At first they didn't know, because we were normal. But over time the gossip developed, yes we have pointed out our relationship in front of them," Ajeng explained.


"Haha.kanya very funny yes you guys that if on campus. You guys are both idols on campus, right?"


Ajeng chuckles amused when it is said he is a campus idol.


"Sir Tania, how many years has Damian been married?" tanya Ajeng was nervous.


"About 7 years if it's not wrong, why?"


"No, ask!"


"You must be wondering, why haven't I taken the child anywhere?" Tania guessed it.


"No, brother, if it's a child problem I think it's too sensitive,"


"Haha, just relax Jeng! It is God's business, I never put off, as much as God loves me. Just yes, comments of people sometimes make the ears hot. And we don't want to have children for long, do we?"


The smiling man nodded.


"If even a delay for a while will also return to the husband and wife agreement, why the fuss even others who do not even care about us," explained Tania relaxed.


"She's right, brother,"


"In the family, there must be a talk that makes the ears hot. Well, that does not need to be entered into the heart, Ajeng Darling! Just focus on our little family and keep doing good to them. I'm also used to being rich. During the 7 years of marriage with Mas Damian, the test we experienced was many kinds, ranging from the news of the 3rd person, the economy, personal problems each, and others. Which certainly remains positive thinking, if God gives a test because He loves us," Tania's answer makes Ajeng's heart really calm.


Indeed, Ajeng should have heard many stories of people who have long waded the household ark, as a reference material and a new household life lesson for a lifetime of corn.


Before long, Ferdian was seen coming down the stairs, his face radiant. I don't know what made him beaming after chatting with his eldest brother. He saw his wife looking fun talking with his sister-in-law.


"Chat what the hell, it's so fun!" said Ferdian approaching the two women who were sitting on the sofa. His hand held the wife's shoulder.


"Women things yes, Fer!" replied his brother-in-law.


"Ooh..so men can't kepo huh?"


"May but find out for yourself, yes!"


Ferdian smiled at the words of his brother-in-law, who was now standing.


"Ajeng, brother to the back first yes, have you met Ferdiannya?"


"Hehe, thank you very much, brother!"


"Yep, anytime!"


Tania walked over to her husband and walked into the backyard to regroup with her other family. While Ferdian looked at his wife's face while tidying up her broken hair.


"Are you talking to Tania?"


"Biasalah, a household matter," Ajeng replied facing her husband.


"Children's problem?"


"No, no," answered Ajeng briefly.


"Is there anything that makes you uncomfortable?"


"Not really, just be thinking. Brother Tania and Mas Damian who have been married for 7 years still have many exams in the household, meaning we who are new to the household must always be ready with the possibility of exams that will be present,"


"That household test will always be there, dear! But don't be afraid, 'cause we're both gonna face it. So don't either of us run away from trouble huh?"


Ajeng nodded with a smile, and Ferdian kissed his wife's forehead.


\=====


It did not feel like the sun had run west, towards his other hideout. This brief family meeting is over. Indeed, the event is not too formal, so there is no arrangement of events that accompany family members. Suffice to meet face to face and news for the sake of protection.


"Bang Andre, where do you live now?" asked Ferdian, after almost half of the Winata family members had already gone home.


"I'm still living in Mama's house for a while. Next month he moved to your campus apartment, "Andre replied wearing his socks after performing Maghrib prayers.


"Which apartment?" ask Ferdian again.


"Royal Kenanga Apartment if it's not the wrong name," replied Andre slightly frowned, remembering the name of the apartment he had just rented.


"Wah deket dong same apartment we,"


"Where are you guys?"


"We live in Kenanga's Grand Suite, still on Kenanga Street too!"


"Woah, you can stop by, yes" said Andre.


"Can!"


"Gee, you're gonna be a new favorite of this student mah, I got a new rival!" jerdian chirps, combing wet hair with his hand.


"What are you popular for?" andre asked as if unsure.


"Yes dong, my wife and I are college celebrities, haha!"


"This oath is a child, pede kebangetan, who is taught?!"


"Yes brother, ranging from fighting to narcissistic is just a good brother. Damian where there's rich!" ferdian said laughing, considering the relationship between himself and Andre was very close as a child until the two grew into adults, so Ferdian was very familiar with Andre's character. Unlike Damian, Ferdian's brother that one was quite cold and fierce.


Andre laughed at Ferdian's reply. He remembered someone who once called him Mister Gombal, because he too often made jokes during his school.


"Well home, baby!" invite Ajeng when seeing Ferdian has finished praying maghrib.


Andre looked at the woman. Yes, Ajeng is very similar to his high school friend, who gave him the nickname Mister Gombal. Ah, why did he feel missed with his friend during High School? Where is he now? Ask in his own mind.


"Well, let's go first!" take Ferdian with his wife's arm.


"Bang, we go first! Later if you have entered the campus, news!" pamit Ferdian's.


"Sip it! Be careful!"


He smiled at Andre.


\=====


I know, this is a new character named Andre Geraldy.


Andre is actually the first male character in the first novel to have Author Aerii, whose title is Miss Dreamer & Elizabeth's Diary. The author has missed wanting to make a story about Andre, so that Andre will be inserted into the story of Ajeng and Ferdian.
