PRETTY TEACHER WHO JUTEK
Asti Makes Peace With His Own Heart
“Bu Asti, please do not be childish like this. Frankly, I was surprised to find the attitude of Mother who turned out like this. Though Mother who I have known all this time, always shows her wibawanya!” tomi said speaking truthfully to Asti, like removing her teeth all this time.
According to Tomi, maybe this is the right time for him to convey and reprimand the attitudes of Asti who was rude to him so far. They were both in a moving vehicle. And Tomi's driving, so there's no way this girl's gonna jump down from a running car. Tomi thought to herself.
Asti pinched her own lips, realizing that what Tomi said was true. Outside of matters relating to the campus, he had forgotten how the attitude of a lecturer should be in the presence of his own students. But ah, isn't Tomi herself not showing herself as a student while with me?
My attitude towards him is not because of my original attitude. But because of the behavior of him who likes to miss. Yes inevitably, because every time I met him I was upset. Don't meet face to face, just look at his face from a distance I'm very upset.
Asti continued to grumble in his heart while turning his face to the scenery on his left through the car glass.
It seems like my soul is no longer able to accept the presence of this one man. My soul has thrashed if it has seen the figure of a man who models like this. The regret is not playing. He could have spoken like that to me, while all the problems that arise between us are from him alone.
“Hope you also realize first, before Brother comment on me. That your attitude to me, was not like a student to his lecturer! And all the problems that exist so far come from your own brother” replied Asti firmly.
“A person's attitude towards us, will be reflected from our attitude to that person! No one is able to hold back, to remain kind to the person who has been rude to him many times. Because man has his own limits of patience”
“If from the beginning Brother was not insolent to me, I also must have great respect for Brother! Maybe even more than you gave me” Asti was satisfied with the unprinted delivery in her heart to Tomi.
Tomi just kept quiet, hearing Asti let out all emotions towards her. Tomi turned to Asti once in a while, as the girl was talking. And caught by Tomi's eyes that when Asti expressed at length times the width of his heart, the girl's eyes also look teary. The sound of his voice also shook a little. Indicates he is really releasing all the emotions that are in his heart and may not have been conveyed all this time.
No wonder for Tomi, because in terms of heart problems women are created to have a soft heart, it is easy to feel touched and they are created more sensitive than men.
“Ya... I completely understand what Mom means. I'm sorry if all this time there was an attitude of my behavior that might have hurt Mom. And maybe even to this day, I haven't forgiven her. Please forgive. Mother herself must know, it is not good to hold a grudge against others” replied Tomi with a serious look.
“It could be after Mom forgives and classifies it would be better. And maybe you'll find more goodness in that person. But in spite of all that, when I personally do something, I definitely have my own reasons. And for sure it's all I've thought of in advance” said Tomi again.
Asti did not comment again. At this time the condition of his heart that was heating up had begun to cool, therefore he could digest the purpose of the statement that Tomi had expressed to him. And this time he again agreed with the statement from the man who was beside him.
Asti prayed in his heart, asking the Creator to give him patience and to be able to humbly accept also forgiving all the deeds Tomi had done to him. So it's been making him goosebumps all this time.
Asti began to speak for himself in his heart, perhaps it was true what Tomi had told him. When we have instilled hatred against others, then whatever he does will still look wrong in our eyes. Though in the view of others may not be the same as our opinion.
And now he has become a lecturer who clearly in fact himself does not have to be provoked by such behavior. Because he knew it from the beginning and what he taught his students is also not far from human nature.
Asti wondered why it was as if he had forgotten all that, as if his eyes were closed by hatred and anger that never subsided against the man who was beside him all this time?
Yes, let it go. Now let everything go as it is. Hopefully I can forgive this man, Asti said again in his heart.
Asti and Tomi were quiet in a while. They both think hard.
Tomi unhesitatingly continued their journey with great care while driving her car. The speed of the vehicle is still controlled and still directed to the South, through the direction of Wonosari. Of course Asti who has been to Parangtritis is shocked.
“Where are we going?” ask Asti to Tomi.
“Lho, I told you, we will see the beautiful South coast. Mother need not worry. Trust me on. We'll find a beautiful view. Far away we come from Jakarta, time only see the hospital!” sahut Tomi while confiding with the girl of his heart.
“Asti allowed the man's words in his heart. Since he arrived in the city of Yogyakarta, in addition to traveling around the city on a motorbike owned by eyang kakung before he had a traffic accident, the rest is just a matter of going to the hospital that takes him out of his house.
“But why not pass Bantul?” ask Asti later.
“We will pass Wonosari. And not going to Parangtritis, ma'am. But to Baron!” sahut Tomi kalem and also happy, because Asti has seen sincerely obey his invitation, proof Asti responds by asking the direction of the road. A big smile on Tomi's lips.
“Indeed further away, but the trip there the view is better. Have you been there, not yet?”
“But” replied Asti with her jutek habit.
“Then my choice is not mistaken. I have a little control of the city of Yogya, because I like adventure. I love seeing the beauty of nature. In my opinion the beauty of nature it beats the mall etc. ‘And Mom!’ it was one of the great beauties of God to me (the last two words and the last sentence, Tomi said in her heart with a sweet smile).
Seriate…
