Slamet looked at his only son. Slamet could see if there was any doubt in Faris' eyes.
"If your goal is to marry Ani just out of pity for Us, like you wouldn't agree" Slamet said.
Asih stopped her crying and looked at Slamet in protest, "Then what if Mr. Kades really destroyed our family, sir? If all the maizemen don't accept our crops, where can we get the money sir?" groaning.
"Mother is right sir, if this is the best thing for our family, Faris has no problem marrying Ani."
Slamet chuckled, "What you said was right Faris, we should have suspected why Mr. Kades arrived to make you a son-in-law, if not for something urgent it feels impossible to remember all this time Mr. Kades also never be nice to us.
I'd rather agree if we find a reason for Mr. Kades to match you with Ani. There must be something." said Slamet made Faris immediately smile broadly.
"Right you say, we better find out why Mr. Kades made this match" said Faris.
"Mother need not be sad anymore and worry about our sustenance because our sustenance is set and will not go wrong if it is ours" said Slamet who was finally embraced by Asih.
After the talk Faris could not sleep due to thinking too much about Ani. Faris was really curious what happened to Ani.
"It seems I should approach Ani first so that I know what they're up to." Faris murmured.
Because he couldn't sleep last night, the next morning Faris woke up a little late.
Faris hurriedly prepared himself to get to campus on time.
Luckily the highway is not jammed so Faris until the right campus, not too late.
After preparing the materials for teaching, he immediately entered the class where all the students were waiting for him.
"Good morning everyone." said Faris as usual.
"For Mr. Faris..."
"Today we will talk about.." Faris' words suddenly came to a halt and his body froze after seeing someone he knew so well.
Faris shook his head, He did not want to hallucinate about Vanes just because he missed Vanes so much.
Faris also had time to rub both eyes, convince himself if he was not hallucinating, the woman sitting in the middle was indeed Vanes, true Vanes even now Vanes smiled at him.
"Sir.." said one student to Faris' daydream.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Faris said, continuing what he wanted to talk about.
After 1 hour, the class ended. All the students were out except for Vanes. The woman smiled again as if waiting for Faris to approach her.
And it's true that Faris did come straight to his desk.
"How can you?" Faris stared in disbelief.
"How are you?" Vanes did not answer and asked anything else.
"You look fine... Without me." said Vanes who immediately made Faris' heart ache.
"How can you say such a thing while you don't know what I'm feeling!"
Vanes immediately laughed, his laughter made Faris want to not smile, "You're so sensitive, I'm just kidding why you should be angry."
Faris slightly looked down embarrassed, Vanes was just asking, why should he be angry, you idiot, his mind.
"How come you're here?" ask Faris.
"I went to school here, is that okay?"
"I'm officially divorced, I'm a widow now."
Unknowingly, Faris smiled widely. He looks happy but immediately hidden his pleasure.
"I'm so sorry."
Vanes laughed, "What are you saying, I'm so happy, isn't this what we wanted first?"
Degs... At once Faris' heart stopped beating. Faris realized this was what He wanted first but He also did not forget the advice of his Father and Mother if he could not be with Vanes again.
It hurts, it hurts so much.
Stay one step away maybe he can formalize his relationship with Vanes but it turns out everything is not that easy.
There is Papa Vanes who must be convinced, there are his parents who have now been opposed to Vanes and also his extended family who will certainly never accept his relationship with Vanes.
It turns out that the road that must be passed a little steep.
"Why just shut up? Have you changed your mind?"
Faris shook her head, "No, I'm just thinking a lot. Then I want to go back to my room first to prepare the next material" said Faris immediately left just like leaving Vanes.
Vanes looked dumb, staring at Faris in disbelief. He could feel Faris surprised by the surprise he had given but now it was his turn to be surprised to see Faris' response back to him. It seems Faris is a little indifferent to him.
Vanes shook his head, "No Vanes, don't be prejudiced first. Mas Faris was a good man, he couldn't possibly hurt you like Rizal hurt you." Inner Vanes comforted himself.
Vanes has struggled so far to prove his love for Faris and now he can only wait for a good reply from Faris.
Vanes hopes that his relationship with Faris will end happily so that he will no longer disappoint his Papa.
Meanwhile in his room, Faris looked to massage his head with both hands.it felt dizzy because he was too confused by the circumstances.
Deep down Faris was delighted at the arrival of Vanes. Faris believes that Vanes continued his education in this campus because he wanted to get closer to him, Faris strongly believes that but now the time is very inappropriate because he is now also being hit by matchmaking problems with Ani.
Faris wants to solve the problem first with Ani but if there is Vanes here, there will certainly be many obstacles and maybe even add new problems.
"Raghhh... What to do now!" faris shuffled her hair.
Faris went back to class and he was a little relieved that there were no Vanes in his class.
But after the class ended, Faris was surprised because Vanes was waiting for him outside the classroom with a bottle of cold drink.
"You must be thirsty, right?" guess Vanes held out the bottle and, inevitably, Faris received the bottle from Vanes, not caring about the people around him who were now staring at him.
"We better get to my room" said Faris, walking first to leave Vanes.
Vanes let out a long sigh, He really felt Faris change.
"Are you ashamed?" asked Vanes when he was in Faris' room.
"What are you saying, I don't-"
"You must be ashamed to be close to a widow like me, I feel like you've changed a lot" Vanes said, again slicing Faris' heart.
Faris walked up to Vanes and hugged the woman, "How can you say such a cruel thing while here I hold back so much longing for you."
