Excel and Ishmael went hand in hand with occasional laughter adorning their journey home.
"What kind of exam is it?"ask Excel .
"Tomorrow art, usually painting anyway"
"Oh. means no problem for tomorrow"
"Can you paint??"
"Can dong,,," Excel answers.
"Can you paint me??"
Excel's footsteps stopped, he looked at Ismail with sanctions.
"Do you really want me to paint??"
Ismail nodded confidently.
"Take it as a sign of your gratitude for my help earlier"
Excel chuckled, but his laughter faded as soon as he knew there was Ba'im .
"Ustadz ??"
Ismail immediately turned his head back.He swallowed the saliva to see the look on the face of his brother who was very flat and serious.
"Is..meet me at home"Titah Ba'im firmly and deeply.Before Ismail replied he had left both of them behind.
"Is... It seems Ustadz knows"
"It's okay you just calm down" Ismail still calms Excel even though he himself is a bit afraid to face his brother's anger..Excel just nodded.

Arriving at home, Ba'im was already sitting waiting for his sister's arrival in the living room. Without much reason, ISMAIL sat directly in front of his brother . Excel is not far from them.
"What are you doing there?"ask Ba'im in a tight tone to Excel . The one asked did not reply, he just looked at Ishmael with concern. Ismail smiled, his head moving as code for Excel to enter. Eventually Excel hesitates in leaving the brothers in the living room.
"Are you the one doing the Excel test?"
There was no reason for Ishmael to lie, he nodded.
"Do you know what you're doing is wrong?"
Ishmael nodded again.
"Do you think it's because you're my sister? so you thought that you would escape punishment?"
Ismail shook his head slowly.
"You can I score !!!"
"Do what you think is right. And I will do what I think is right" Ismail finally said.
"You've never made a mistake like this?but why are you doing it now?"
"Sister also often makes mistakes, right ?Then why did you demand me not to be guilty, after all, the mistake was very pleasant for me"
"Do you like Excel ??"
Ishmael could not help his smile.
"You know she likes me ?"
"But you don't like it, do you??"
"You know better why you don't like him?and it will happen to your heart"
"No Brother!!Brother is wrong... it is precisely my heart is very happy to like a girl as unique as him.If Brother ignores her ??then I will come to stretch out my hands for him "
"Don't be stupid you're Is"
"Where are you going??I'm not done talking"
"Wouldn't you ask me to talk about the exam or about feelings ??"
Ba'im was stifled at Ishmael's reply, he could not answer anything.Ismail raised his lips, then went inside.
Excel eavesdropped on all the talk of the two brothers.He immediately hid himself as soon as he knew Ismail went inside.Excel put on a thin smile, is now Ba'im no longer related to the hick?? since when ???
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
When the art exam began, it was conducted in the back garden of Mushola.All students santri Wan and santriwati so enthusiastically followed.
Excel really makes Ismail as a model.So much as Ismail, he secretly paints the beautiful face.
Ba'im who saw the two from a distance only held tightness in his chest.Without realizing that fresh blood flowed from his nose.
Ba'im immediately looked up, rubbed with the blood tissue.He also tried to stop the blood as much as possible.
No one was aware of the incident, except Excel who accidentally saw it.He got up without saying anything to Ismail who focused on painting.
Coincidentally on the edge of the park there is a betel tree that is formed in such a way as a decoration shaped archway.Excel picking some betel leaf sheets that have a certain type.Then he rolled it while walking quickly to Ba'im .
The man was shocked suddenly someone pulled his arm.He was surprised to find out who pulled him.Ba'im limb, his body is unstable because of his feelings.Finally he fell into the lap of Excel . Though Excel pulled him to sit, but because of the shock mixed with deg-deg ser, Ba'im actually sat on the lap of Excel .
Want to be encouraged pity, Excel finally chose to let it go.In deftly Excel cleans the blood in Ba'im's nose, then clog the roll of betel leaves into the man's nose.
The sight caused impunity for others.They held their breath seeing the scene.
"Have ..." said Excel , but Ba'im still pegged with a gaze that is difficult to interpret.
"Ustadz.you heavily know"connect Excel again.
"Ah.. sorry.."Ba'im's face met with red, he immediately rose from the lap of Excel .
"Wuuuuuu"
All cheering....Ba'im became more embarrassed.Excel was about to rise, but not in the hands of Ba'im garcep pulled him to rise.
"Thank you Ustadz.I can do it myself" Excel said, he turned around to want to return to his seat.
"I'm sorry..."
But Ba'im's voice prevented his steps.Excel sculpted, he did not go forward nor backward or turned.
"I know I'm wrong with you a lot..."
Everyone who had cheered the brightest watched the two of them.There are chin-backed, there are those who grimace secretly.With Ismail only a thousand languages witnessed Brother with a girl who managed to touch his Heart.
"But please don't let me down"
Excel smiled behind his body.While Ba'im no longer know what to do ??He just wants to say what he wants from an Excel .
The girl who turned her back on him did not respond to anything.Tiba just left without looking at him.Ba'im continued to follow the girl's gestures with the look of his eyes, until the girl sat back where she was.
An Ustadz approached Ba'im, he patted Ba'im on the shoulder several times.
"If you like to say like... what will be preceded by others ??"
"W-what did I say earlier was less clear to her ??"
"What did Young Master say??just saying don't shut me up, is that a confession of feelings?"
"I think he can quite understand my words"
"Maybe he understood, but there's no way he'd immediately say. Later you think he's misinterpreting?"
Ba'im pensive, he looked at Excel again who was looking at him.Ba'im reviewed the smile, but Excel actually lowered his face.
"Well, I'll look for an opportunity to tell you everything Ex"
Ba'im solidified the intention in his heart.
