He's Not The Best

Hanifa She's A Beautiful Girl

Winsi did not speak to his mother, she continued to beat him up while Arkan let her.

“Ampun Tuan Putri ..” Said the man, kneeling while clenching his hands together in front of his chest.

The seedy and disheveled appearance made Runa nod, understanding that the person she was talking to was just a lunatic who was huddling or sleeping beside her old house.

“Come!” Take Arkan after the calm, he stepped ahead of Winsi and Runa to his car. But when someone approached them, he smiled kindly and nodded politely.

Runa recognized him as a neighbor who lived not far from his house, he then asked how the house was and who lived there. The woman saw no sign that the house was occupied. Basri is still there or he doesn't know. The neighbor then explained that the house had been empty for a long time and there was even an incident that made Runa and Winsi not believe.

But what he heard was probably the fruit of Nira's actions. It was clearly explained by his neighbor that, a few months ago, several people were seen raiding Basri's house. The qarga found Nira was with a man unknown to them so he was tried and married at that time. At this time Mira also went with a man who had been married by force at that time.

As for Basri, the neighbor had no idea where the man was. The last time they met the man said that he would no longer occupy a house that had been used for adultery because the possibility of his sin was still there. Even the result of the heinous act, harmed 40 citizens both in front behind and beside him.

After hearing all the explanations and knowing the real situation they returned home.

“Just relax, I'll look for him.” Arkan said trying to calm Runa down, they were already in a car that was traveling at moderate speed.

“Daddy want to find it where?” ask Winsi.

“Ya anywhere her name is looking.” Arkan said optimistically.

While Runa thought it was impossible to do because Basri was always moving places. As a driver, which can be likened to a person who has never been in one location at a time, he will go anywhere according to order and the cargo he carries.

Today's search was completed when it was near noon, Arkan invited them to lunch at the restaurant. Things they had never done before made Winsi very happy, she ordered food that she had never tried and of course that she thought was delicious. The girl was so grateful to Arkan for the rare opportunity she had obtained. They are like a happy little family between parents and children.

Winsi stuffed his last suitcase and bag in the trunk of a car used to drive him and pick him up to school. And at that time, Erlan came riding his big motorbike. The girl glanced at him at a glance then, opened the back door of the car, for her mother who took her to the boarding school.

Actually Winsi does not want to be treated like this, he can go alone by bus or join his entourage of friends Si Gendut Nia, who will leave at the same time. However, Arkan forced him to set out with Hasnu to take them to his boarding school.

“You leaving now?” erlan asked, still sitting on the bike, taking off his helmet.

“Have known, tanya?”

“Not wrong too, right .. indeed why if you ask. Time to be dicuekin too, anyway?”

“Indeed, why? Want to come?” asked Winsi to mark Erlan, she thought that maybe this man would come to such a place.

“Yes, that's why I'm here.”

“Ha?”

“Yes, already gone there, come in! Basic buluk boy!”

“Eelan! Once again you call me buluk—“

“I don't want to talk to you!” Winsi said with a frown then, getting into the car, he chose to sit beside Hasnu, while Runa sat in the back seat alone. Without him thinking it turned out to be true, Erlan followed them from behind using his big motorbike.

“Why Erlan call Om Hasnu, Dad?” ask me while I am still on my way. The distance and time they had to travel so far that there was a saturation on him that he invited the driver to chat together.

“Then, the time Den Erlan started to enter the school, the Great Lord and Mr Arkan went abroad ...”

Hasnu began to tell one by one the events of how Erlan could be a child who did not have a mother. During this time both Runa and Winsi though, they had been in the big house for a long time but, never asked that personal matter to anyone. Only now do they know.

It turns out that Erlan's life path is very sad, since childhood in the mother's residence, then, moved home because her father wanted to forget the past. However, after being in a new environment, it is precisely in living to go abroad for a long time.

Even in the early days of school, the father did not accompany him until he called Hasnu and Neni, a husband and wife of his caretaker, called father and mother and, became a habit until now.

Hasnu had actually refused because it was unpleasant with the actual hosts but, Erlan insisted on the call because, when meeting with teachers at school during kindergarten or in his elementary school, he said, no one represents parents other than Hasnu or Neni. Of course Arkan and Badru knew this, but, the two men did not mind.

“I think first, Om Hasnu is Erlan's father!” winsi said with a laugh, remembering the incident when she first got into the car without permission to hide, at that time Runa told her to run to avoid angering Basri.

“Everyone thinks so too, Miss. That's why my wife and I used to refuse, but, Den Erlan still calls me so.”

“So, Erlan has many fathers, yes?”

“Haha. Yes.”

During the trip they always joked and talked about many things, Runa sitting in the back just chimed in once in a while because the woman was more asleep and also enjoyed the beauty of the natural scenery they passed and it turned out quite beautiful.

Every now and then Winsi looked back through the rearview mirror of the car and clearly he saw the faithful Erlan following them until they finally arrived at their destination. It was a journey of more than three hours and Erlan tirelessly drove that long using his motorbike, making Winsi moved.

“So, is this your school?” erlan asked as she took off her helmet and got off the bike and helped carry her school supplies out of the trunk.

“If I already know this, right, , if you want to see you here.”

Erlan's words suddenly made Winsi stop her steps and turn towards the man at the side then, shaking her head in disbelief that the man would visit someday.

“You can only go home at the end of each semester, right?” ask Erlan again.

Winsi just nodded while smiling faintly. While Runa dragged one suitcase and entered the reception place of students. The small group followed and stood waiting for the woman who was re-registrating the students. It should be done though, the student is already enrolled beforehand.

Suddenly from behind them, a woman slapped and patted Erlan's shoulder gently. Instantly the man turned his head and was surprised to see the sweet girl who was smiling kindly to him.

“Eh, it's really you, Lan. I think the wrong person was.” A very beautiful-looking girl with a height almost the same as Erlan, her skin was white and she looked at Erlan with sparkling eyes.

“Eh, you're Han. How are you here?” erlan asked calling the girl's name which turned out to be the woman who was rumored to be close to Erlan at their school.

‘Erlan? Hani's? Them ... Oh, so this person that Meri had told me about, she was Hanifa that was yes, hmm .. she was beautiful as well’ Inner Winsi while nodding.

“Yes, it's me. Why are you here?” ask the pretty girl.
