Perfect Duda
No More

On the other hand, the atmosphere of the luxurious house was silent for a moment. Not a word said. The clink of the fork clashing against the plate sounded faint. A couple of husband and wife are sad. Especially Aza, as a mother. She is very sad because last night her daughter did not come home– is not allowed the husband.

The fork was put back, breakfast was not resumed. No taste at all. The dining room which was usually crowded even though only the four of them suddenly went quiet, there was no Aiden and Ailee.

"You are evil." - she said without turning to her husband.

"Not evil, but firm," Aksa said with a straight look without looking at his wife.

Both are silent again. There was no spirit that morning. Breakfast feels bland, chaotic mind. Somehow to recover it. Suddenly a finger pierced Aksa's arm, the man turned to his side. There was Ailee and also Aiden who looked down in fear.

"I'm full, honey. Depart first yes," said Aksa who actually wanted to avoid his two children. But his wife prevented it.

Ailee sat beside her papa, her head still lowered in fear. And in the end he hugged his father. The crying broke again, he was not strong if silenced by his papa. The father did not budge, he was glued to his place and did not return his embrace.

"Deliver!"

The body of his son he pushed so that the embrace was released, he immediately left his son who was still sobbing. Not stopping like that, Ailee followed her papa until she got into the car followed by Aiden. And in the end the car drove away from the Sanjaya family residence.

"Pah.." lirih Ailee tried to talk to her papa despite being focused on driving a car.

"Ailee's promise won't be like yesterday anymore" she said hoping that her father would forgive her.

"Serious learning. Don't think about the man anymore, keep your distance from him" Aksa said. Finally he wanted to talk to his son too, but his words again hurt Ailee.

...*****...

The national exam is approaching, and now the twelfth graders are conducting various practical exams. After the practice exam, there will be a school exam, and the peak is the national exam.

The sun was so stinging. Time showed at eleven o'clock in the afternoon, IPA class 1 had just finished the practice sports exam. The round-shaped test number placed on the left side chest finally came off. Tomorrow is still used, for two more subjects.

The mineral water brought from each house was gulped down. Sweat wiped, clothes flicked so as not to be too sultry. A joke was created, laughter colored the edge of the basketball court. Their homeroom teacher came absent from his hands, as he always watched his students during the practice exam.

"Tomorrow is the last day, stay up and give your best" Binar said after filling out the list.

Ailee followed him, "Pak Bin! Mr Bin!"

The owner of the name turned and stopped.

"Ehm...later Mr. Binar to the house at what time?" ask Ailee trite, but she also knows what time Binar will come for private lessons.

"We've been tutoring private for months, but why do you still ask questions like that?" tanya Binar scrunched her forehead.

"Hehe, there is no topic, just want to deket it like Mr. Binar," replied Ailee grimacing.

The girl was respectful and obedient. As usual Ailee gives finger love to Binar. And without realizing it, Binar also gave finger love to Ailee. Whatdoes thatmean?

"Batk!" yelled Ailee, she tried to stop Binar from asking for an explanation for the finger love earlier. However, Binar hurried away quickly. His face turned red and he was misbehaving.

...*****...

When the sun returned to the contest, the twins and the man who incidentally as a teacher looked seriously on the balcony of the house that was used as a place of learning. Various materials and training questions were studied since four o'clock.

Ailee and Aiden are very clever, they are ready for the national exam and entrance exam to a foreign university. It's easy enough for Binar to give them guidance, unlike any other child.

"Sir, I'll let you go, kebelet.." said Aiden in a hurry to leave Binar and Ailee.

The book is closed, neatly arranged as before. Food and drinks companion was exhausted, the table that had been messy was back neat. It was time for the girl to hold her chin up and enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of her.

"Don't look at me, you'll be diabetic" Binar said confidently at the god-level, letting Ailee spin around.

"Sir, how did Mr. Binar feel to Ailee?" ask Ailee curiously. Lately he feels that Binar has more feelings than just a teacher with students.

"feelings how? Feelings of affection, worry, worry?"

Ailee nodded.

"Just as a teacher towards his students, nothing more," continued Binar made Ailee's smile recede instantly.

"But I feel Mr. Binar has another taste. Mr. Binar was always worried about Ailee, worried, pity, sometimes attention, and-"

"Only as a teacher to his students, nothing more. Isn't that natural?" cut Binar.

"Sir! Don't lie to the heart! I'm sure Mr. Binar likes me. What's wrong with being honest?"

Binar took a deep breath as possible before returning to speak. He was actually ready to go home, but Ailee seemed to hold back by asking questions that were not important.

"If I like you, that's impossible, right? We can't be together, Lili. I'm 24 years old and you're only 18, we're so different. I am a widower, not worthy of you who are single. Poor anyway, the point is not worth it to you. Look for a man who matches you," Binar said solemnly.

"I don't mind all that! And we deserve to be together!" yelled Ailee with teary eyes. "I love you, sir. And I'm sure Mr. Binar loves me too. Don't lie!" continued.

"Nobody's lying here. You better not think about me anymore and just think about the national exam and the university entrance exam."

Ailee looked disappointed, she kicked the table and left Binar. His chest was so tight when Binar said that. He knew very well the lie that Binar was doing, he knew if Binar also loved him. Seen from the look of his eyes, but why is the man still evasive?

The twilight debate made Ailee sad and avoided Binar for a long time. Three days he had not followed Binar, chatted, and did not go to the orphanage. The girl became quiet, and so lazy with Binar. Ailee turned her eyes away, not saying hello as usual. Meanwhile, Binar was very saddened by Ailee's change.
