My Dear Teacher
Rana's confession!

[RAN, can we meet?] Damar sent a message to Rana. Five minutes, ten minutes to fifteen minutes passed, there was no reply from him. Previously on Rana Online.

Unusually, the girl ignored Damar. No matter how busy he usually always put Damar first. Being impatient, Damar who wanted everything to be done now also directly contacted Rana. He gave no pause, terrorizing Rana with many messages and missed calls until Rana finally answered.

[What's up, Mar? I was busy] answered Rana.

[I want to talk now. Can I meet you where?]

[Later on, now I can't, I still have business on campus and can't be left out.]

[What time are you home? I'm waiting at a regular cafe near your campus. Now I'm sliding there.]

[I don't know what time it is, Mar. Later if it's loose I'll tell.]

[It's okay, Ran. I'll just wait at the cafe until you're done. You don't have to rush.]

[Mar don't do that, I'll call you later.]

Damar didn't care about Rana's reply. He continued to slide to the cafe near the Rana campus. Up there he immediately sent Rana a photo of his whereabouts to let him know that he was already on the scene. Damar was very sure that Rana would definitely approach him soon.

***

Exactly as Damar had guessed, not ten minutes, Rana had approached Damar whose face was usually always beaming with a smile that never faded when meeting now instead. Tanpak tangled, and looks uninspired.

"I'm sorry I'm interrupting your time." Damar. "I mean come here, I want to ask for your help, Ran."

"What help?" Rana actually already knows how big it must be for Damar to want to meet her. Nanda told him, so when Damar called, he refused the meeting. He who usually likes to meet Damar, now it feels like he wants to hide to the end of the world to avoid it. However, still when Damar said he was waiting, he could not afford to ignore the man.

"I want to marry Miss Dita" Damar said.

"Mmmm," The shutter instantly paled. His heart felt like it wanted to escape, he was really sad and disappointed. Rana is not ready if one day faces a day like today where Damar declares he wants to marry another woman. But unfortunately he still had to act fine in front of Damar. If this was at home, he might have cried.

"In the meantime the mother doesn't approve."

"Why then do you still impose the will?"

"RAN, I love Ms. Dita."

"What does this have to do with me?" Rana could no longer bear to hear Damar say he loved another woman. His heart was burning with jealousy. Why should that woman? Their teacher. What is so special about Ms Dita? Can't he change his position?

Rana imagines the face of Bu Dita. His beautiful math teacher. Besides saliha and smart. Mum Dita is fun, everyone loves it. His gentle yet firm nature made him admired by his students. Is that what makes Damar crazy about their teacher?

"What if I don't want to?"

"But why Ran? Aren't we friends. You gonna do anything for this friendship?"

"Who said? Damar, now it's time for me to be honest with you. Aunt Anis does not without reason often talk so that you and I become lovers and even marry. But Aunt Anis did that at my request. Yes, I asked Aunt Anis to let you be your life partner.

Mar, I have to be honest, admit everything. Ilove you. Love you so much! I've been in love since we were kids. This is not just an ordinary monkey's love, but real love. I can't live without you, Mar. That's why in the end I forced my mother to match me with you. Mama also did not want to obey, but in the end she realized that you are the only man I love. That's why at the end of the day Mama talks heart to heart to Aunt Anis and they agreed that we could be together. That's the truth, Mar. I really love you."

"What are you talking about, Ran?" Damar did not understand, he thought that Rana was joking and Damar was not comfortable with the joke.

"I'm telling the truth, Mar. I love you."

"Ahhhh what the hell is this?"

"I'm sorry, Mar,"

"alright. I appreciate your feelings, Ran. But I don't like you. I just consider you a friend. Not more. I'm sorry, Ran."

"Pity me, Mar."

"RAN, love cannot be forced. If I still accept you but I don't like you, are you sure if we are together then you and I can be happy? No, Rana."

"But we haven't tried it yet, Mar. Maybe we are fools?"

"Rana, I can't. I proposed to Ms. Dita first and abstained for me to betray her. We have built the same dream. So please understand. You just have to open your heart to another man, Rana. I'm sure you'll get the best because you're a good girl."

"It's not that easy, Mar. I don't have a long life expectancy like people. I'm sick, Mar."

"Astaghfirullah,"

"Mar, please. I just need a minute of your time. After I leave this world, you can return with Ms. Dita. I just want to feel happiness even if it's only temporary and my happiness is you "

"Oh Allah Rana!" Damar's getting dizzy. He who originally hoped to find a way out of this problem even get a new problem. He did not want to have the heart of Rana, the girl was very good not only to him, but also to his family. But he didn't love her.

In a short time, Damar has decided, he will not give false hope to Rana. He could not give it a chance even though Rana said that he loved Damar. How could he possibly give it a chance while he had already tied the knot with another woman. It's the same as being cruel to Bu Dita.

Damar wasn't sure if he could bring happiness to Rana. He doesn't love her. It would be a false happiness.
