My Story With The Ustad
The Heart of Azriel

Azriel stepped closer to Ayu. Don't know what to do. Ayu took a step back and suddenly hit the cupboard behind Azriel's desk. He was confused not being able to move.

Azriel “Dek you want to forgive me right? you're different deck. Not like the others. I don't know what happened to me. I couldn't sleep last night. I'm mistaken. I'm sorry. I admit I invite you to special salary because you want to get closer to you dek“ . Ayu suffocated to hear the word come out of Azriel's mouth. It feels like drifting. Wanting to be close means wanting to be close between a woman and a man. Does Azriel have the same feelings as her?

Ayu's eyes glowed. Bummer. Azriel is getting closer. Their breaths almost collided. Their perfume was mixed. Their distance is only 5 cm apart. they feel like in space flying together. With no one else around.

Azriel takes Ayu to the earth. And Ayu could not refuse. Azriel invited Ayu to go first. While he tells Puji and Sari and other ustad ustad in the office room that he and Ayu are going to Umi Rodiah's house to pick up some snacks and glasses that have not been taken for guest show. On the way Ayu tries to keep her distance from Azriel. The Ustad still knows himself. He walked behind Ayu. Although he wanted the streets lined up with Ayu to be able to chat, but at this time it was not right. Because the journey from the madrasah to the house of Umi Rodiah is quite crowded filled with people passing by to the Madrasah. He was afraid to be a question many people when walking alone with Ayu. Along the way, Azriel tries to convince Ayu of her heart. He said that he every day thought and imagined Ayu's shadow. I could not sleep as I said in the office. Ayu just kept quiet. Not answering. Sometimes I just say yes and yes.

“Dek ... do you understand what I'm saying deck?, you understand my feelings are the same you right?”

“Can we get closer deck?“ Azriel

“ Sorry tadz ..ini on the road. Many see us. Better not to talk strangely strange“ Ayu

“What do you mean weird deck ? I'm a normal guy, I like you deck. Please consider me . You don't have to answer now “.

“maaf tadz... soon I will have to enter the class. So must be quick to uminya afraid of being late to the Yayan class"

“I will allow you later with Ustad Yayan. You don't worry. After all we at home ummi can not fast. Must help umi also“.

“Sorry tadz ... i.........???“

“Don't call me ustad. Just call me mas. Serti Sari and others“ Azriel

“I can't. Excuse me. Maybe Sari is close to Ustad and how close the relationship with Sari is to your business. I remain a student of ustad“.

The more Ayu quickened Azriel's pace the closer she got. He did not want this day to be fruitless to reveal all his heart to Ayu. Arriving in the courtyard of Umi's spacious and lonely house.Azriel blocks Ayu's hand. He pulled her to stop Ayu. Azriel's gaze lit up as if demanding. His hand was tightly clasping Ayu's hand.

“What do you want ustad?“

“Don't call me ustad. Call me mas“

“Ngot able“

“What do you mean can not deck? Don't you want to give me a chance to connect with you. I like you deck. Love my chance to prove it and let's get to know each other“ Azriel

“This is too fast mmmm mas..“ Ayu is still clumsy.

“We don't know too well“

 "I'm seriously deck. Help meuuu“ Azriel. Ayu has no power to answer she would like to answer IYAAAAAA. He seemed to be floating and was in a garden that was scattered with flowers. But his prestige and his mind can still be invited to think. He's not who. He was not the son of the kyai or the ustadzah who had approached Ustad Azriel. He's far from them. They're flawless. And she…? Wh who? Whose son? Deserve her? Let alone. Even being friends with Azriel is out of balance.

Ayu just shut up. He stared at Azriel blankly. Azriel was still clutching Ayu's arm. Not willing to let go. His eyes looked at Ayu's answer. Squeeze and bow your head steadily. Expecting Ayu to also reply with a nod of the head. But Ayu is still passive. Ayu held back. He wanted to cry in this position. What's to be answered? from the netra of Azriel's eyes he saw sincerity. A deep sincerity. Does he have to accept? but will this last long? or is it just temporary? Azriel only briefly liked him? and finally Azriel will leave him? what will the Azriel family accept? NOT LIKELY.

“Let's time I“ it Ayu's decision.

“I'll prove my sincerity“ Azriel nodded her head. Ayu took off her hand. He was ashamed to look at Azriel again. He rushed to Umi Rodiah's house. Azriel followed from behind.

Umi Rodiah is a Ustadzah who runs a madrasah and najai in Mushola. She is the younger sister of Kyai or Azriel's aunt. Everyone, especially madrasah students, called him “ umi“. Umi Rodiah is good at cooking. All kajatan related to mushola and madrasah must use Umi cuisine. He can present all the menus, especially those that are favorite of Kyai.
