The girl only considered him an ordinary friend. At most as a senior lecturer who can be asked for opinions.
Because, Mr. Eko was more experienced teaching than himself. He was thirty-five years old. He taught in economics faculty and worked as a consultant at a large company with a fairly decent salary.
The economic situation is more than enough to build a household.
A nice house, he already owned it. So does the vehicle. But somehow, until now Mr. Eko is still not married when it seems he has everything that can make a girl fall in love with him.
Mr. Eko, described a very perfect male figure in the eyes of his students.
But Mr. Eko has never been interested in his students, both from the new beginning level to the final level students.
For Mr. Eko, they are only students that he must guide and he teaches the knowledge he has, and all have become his duty as a lecturer.
On campus there are also several young lecturers and the same age as Mr. Eko who secretly put the day on Mr. Eko, even some who openly show their feelings to Mr. Eko.
But Mr. Eko seemed to close his eyes to it.
Mr. Eko never responded to any female lecturer who paid more attention to him.
Until when Asti came and became one of the lecturers who taught at the campus, Mr. Eko began to open his heart to accept the presence of a woman.
Asti, a new lecturer who often asks senior lecturers, not just on Mr. Eko, has fascinated Pak Eko and tries to seek attention from Asti.
Asti himself knew that not a few students who fell in love with the mature man, if he taught, there were almost no students who were absent in the lecture room.
And not a few of them who choose him as their academic guidance counselor or mentor.
Therefore, Asti himself was surprised why a man like Eko sir could not move his heart when how many other girls would feel happy to be the point of attention of the man.
For Asti, Mr. Eko is too good.
Too perfect. Facing it, everything was already as established by itself. There was no challenge or such that appeared in his heart every time he got along with the man.
Being near Mr. Eko, everything seems calm, peaceful but less uplifting or passionate life. The situation looks too flat, without any waves of challenges in undergoing a relationship.
Something seemed to be the opposite of Asti who always took part and liked the challenge in everything.
Asti is a dynamic woman.
He likes something new that he has never done in his life.
Like preferring to be a lecturer rather than looking for a job in an office like he lived before.
Asti feels challenged to be able to try new things.
Being a teacher was the first thing he did.
In his eyes, how he stood before his students, teaching and sharing his knowledge.
It seems like a very fun challenge and must be tried.
Asti realized that Mr. Eko, a senior lecturer who often asked for opinions both on how to teach and the problems that occur with students, secretly tried to approach him.
To not disappoint the hope of the man Asti deliberately did not want to be too familiar with Mr. Eko.
At least he did not want to privilege it more than other fellow lecturers.
According to Asti, the man should understand enough that for him, he is not a special man. No need he repeatedly came to visit him, especially every time he came there was no home and constantly tried to approach Asti.
Asti has a lot of activities that have nothing to do with romance issues or anything like that.
Therefore, Asti felt bad also at dusk as soon as he came out of his seat, seeing Mr. Eko had been waiting for him.
" I came to your house, Dik Asti!''
he said as soon as he approached Asti when he saw Asti out of his French course.
" Your mother said you were on a course here."
Said Mr. Eko who said if he knew Asti was here from Asti's mother.
Sahut Asti who tries to remain reasonable.
" This is an opportunity for me, because this long holiday can be filled with things that can not be done if we have to face students at. Campus."
Asti said to Mr. Eko.
Asti hopes that Mr. Eko will understand what he means.
" You're such a dynamic girl who's good at making the most of her free time, Dik Asti!''
Said Mr. Eko while looking at Asti with a feeling of admiration.
" I just don't like to waste time.
Human life is not long. The years go by very quickly."
Asti said that was not affected by praise and admiration of Mr. Eko.
" That's true. But sometimes we also need something that not only works, studies and the like!"
Eko said with a smile and tried to take Asti's heart.
" Brain also needs to be rested, and that's what a vacation is for!''
Said Mr. Eko again to Asti.
" Yes, that's right"
Asti's word justifies what Mr. Eko said.
" Well if it's true, come on Dik Asti come with me!''
Mr. Eko cut out Asti's words.
" I want to take you to a movie. But first we eat!''
Pak Eko continued his words.
Mr. Eko looks a little forcing Asti to come with him, because Mr. Eko wants to invite Asti to dinner and watch a movie.
" It's already night, mom!
I am a little tired and want to rest. "
Asti said that rejected Pak Eko's invitation subtly.
" Come on, Asti deck! We have dinner and a watch together.
I've been to the house a few times and looking for the Asti deck, but never met.
So, this time I asked the Asti deck to fulfill my request. "
Said Mr. Eko who slightly forced Asti.
Asti is tired and wants to rest.
But, seeing Mr. Eko who forced him to make Asti not feel good.
" Alright, mom! I'll go with you, but only for dinner.
I can't watch tonight because I want to rest. "
Asti said that fulfilled Mr. Eko's invitation, but only for dinner.
" All right, Asti deck! Let's go. "
Said Mr. Eko with a smile on his lips.
Time is just dinner, but Mr. Eko is happy to be able to go alone with Asti.
