Not the Perfect Wife
88. S2 - Classmate
"Remember, study diligently don't date." Aydin warned the younger brother by opening his eyes.
"Who's dating? Brother just there, find a daughter-in-law for mother. Let the mother have her shopping meeting, not alone mulu," said Afrin pouting.
"Why aren't you the only one who's convinced."
"If I go to school, how will I see my schoolmates? Know who I am" said Afrin.
"Simple, tell me you're his servant's son."
"No, no matter what happens. Mother is still my mother, if I say a maid, I'm not a mother's child, dong."
"Here you go first, it's too late. You could get fired."
"Anyone dares to fire Brother?"
"There's nothing for now, don't know if later." Afrin and Aydin giggled.
"So, I can't."
"Sister to go first. Assalamualaikum."
"Getishalight."
Aydin propelled his motor away leaving Afrin waving his hands at him. After his brother is not seen, Afrin immediately enters his school. It was too early, only a few new students came.
"Afri!" call Vira, Afrin's friend.
Afrin doesn't have many friends, she only has three friends, all of them women maybe because they don't know who the girl really is. If they knew, they would have looked for face by pretending to be nice to Afrin.
"Tumben, early in the morning has left. What's up, huh?" ask Afrin.
"Again males at home, you know my parents always fight," replied Vira with a chat, as if she had been used to seeing her parents quarrel. Though deep down, he really wanted his parents to get along well like everyone else.
Afrin felt guilty for making her friend remember her grief. Vira belongs to the family. However, he lacked affection due to the busyness of his parents.
"You alone? Where are Siska and Nuri?" ask Afrin, she's trying to shift the conversation.
"I don't know, I just left earlier, Sisca will probably say no because I live" Vira grumbled as she walked.
"Somehow, why did you just leave, usually together. Come on, yuk, to class!" They walked into class.
Not long after that Siska and Nuri arrived.
"Geez, Ra. I've been waiting for you, but you've been here" said Sisca annoyed.
"I'm sorry, I was in a hurry" Vira replied with a cry. "Don't sulk, dong, honey." Vira tries to persuade the upset Sisca.
"Ih, well, amused to know."
As some girls enter Afrin's classroom, they walk haughtily.
"Hey you're Afrin?" ask a girl who just got into class, she's named Livy.
"Yes, Brother. What's up, huh?" ask Afrin.
"You don't get beauty-ass. I know that lately, you've been trying to get Ihsan's attention. Don't expect him to be mine and no one can take him away from me."
Afrin looked at the girl in front of her with a frown. She had no idea what Livy meant. Afrin turned to look at her best friend one by one, as if asking what the big brother meant. They also looked at each other and slapped their shoulders.
"Sorry, Brother. What exactly does Brother mean? I never intended to take Kak Ihsan or anyone. I am not interested in them" Afrin said with confidence.
"You turned out to be a hypocrite, pretending not to like when behind trying to get close to Ihsan."
"As for Brother to say what, obviously I did not seize anyone and was not close to anyone" said Afrin with annoyance at the accusation of the no-no.
"You're nothing! Why are you looking for trouble with your underclassman?" ask the man who just arrived. He is none other than Ihsan, Livy's lover, who is also the most popular male in school due to his wealth.
"I'm just warning him not to get your attention."
They are now the center of attention of other students. Even some of the students were peering at the window, making Afrin even more upset. He doesn't like to be the subject of conversation let alone the source of trouble.
"Why did you tell me to leave? You want to buy him?" ask Livy to Ihsan.
"Sister, than Brother bothers to warn others. Better Brother be careful with the enemy under the covers," said Vira.
"What do you mean?"
"I'm just warning you" Vira said following Livy's words earlier.
"Already, come!" Ihsan pulled the hand of her lover away from the class.
While Afrin just stared at him flat. It is true that lately Ihsan tried to get close to Afrin. However, the girl had never responded to him at all because she knew, Ihsan was already in a relationship with Livy.
Ihsan and Livy are the older brothers of Afrin class, while the girl herself is currently in tenth grade.
"Rin, you're not papa, are you?" ask Nuri.
"No papa, just relax" replied Afrin who then sat on his stool.
"Ra, what did you mean? who's the enemy in the blanket?" ask Sisca.
"No means anything. Only I've seen, Brother Ihsan the same way, sister Livy, do not know what her name is and they look very friendly."
"Where do you see? You don't make it up, it'll be a slander."
"Who is defamatory? I saw for myself when I went to Papa's business partner's event."
Sisca rounded her eyes, as if getting something extraordinary. "It looks like it's going to be a scene, nih. If it turns out his girlfriend was caught cheating on him with her friend."
"After all, you guys are gosipin people. We go to school to learn" Nuri said.
"So I was upset, he played with anger without knowing the cause" said Sisca.
*****
Meanwhile, at a company, it appears a man has just got off his motorcycle. Just as he was walking a few steps, there was a girl who hit him from behind, making him almost fall down. Fortunately, he was holding on to the car next to him.
"Sorry .. Sorry, Mas. I was not intentionally. Again I'm sorry. Mas, it's okay, right?"
"It's okay, next time be careful, yes, Ma'am."
"Yes, sorry I was in a hurry because today, my first day of work so, I must not be late. Because it's okay I'm sorry. Assalamualaikum." The girl passed by without waiting for Aydin to answer.
"Waalaikumsalam," muttered Aydin, who would definitely not have been heard by the girl since she was already away.
"It's so sweet" Aydin said unconsciously. "What was I talking about." Adin smacked his own lips because he felt like he had let go.
Aydin also walked into the place where he worked, there were already some friends who came.
"Are you done with the job I gave you yesterday?" ask superiors.
"Already, sir," Aydin replied.
"You come into my room, take your report and explain everything in the file."
"Good, sir."
