"Is your book complete? Don't be rich yesterday came to school with an empty bag, how many times have you said this? You must be a disciplined role model." said Mrs. Rina to her child who was in the middle of the school.
"Yes, already mom." said his son, he then stood up to shake his mother's hand to say goodbye to go to school.
"I'm leaving mom, it's almost late. Assalamualaikum" Rizal looked at the watch that was coiled around his wrist.
"Wa'alaikumsalam, be careful on the way"
Rizal nodded then he walked outside and was lost behind the door.
His full name is Fakhrizal Alghiffari, more familiarly called Rizal because it is easier and also sounds cooler, he is the third of three siblings, his age is about to turn 20 years but he was still in high school because of his lack of not being able to easily understand the subjects at his school which made him not go up to three grades when he was still Primary school.
In fact, humans who have shortcomings will definitely have advantages there, like Rizal, even though he has flaws that find it difficult to understand lessons at school but he still has the advantage of talent and ability in the field of photography that he has mastered since he was a child, and with this ability Rizal can now earn his own money by becoming a photographer at a famous beauty product company owned by a friend's parents that located near her school.
He has an older sister who is three years apart from him. Now his brother is already studying sixth semester at one of the leading universities. And has a younger brother who is still in SMA class XI but is different from the school with Rizal.
It can be said that Rizal was born from a well-off family, not too rich, his father runs a grocery store in three traditional markets in the area, while his mother is only a housewife.
Damn, I left for school late again! Even though I woke up earlier, all because of the motorcycle taxi driver who suddenly had to deflate a motorbike tire in the middle of the road, Rizal ran in the corridor of his school because it turned out that the school was deserted because all the residents had entered the class, all that was left there was a security guard, a gardener, the teacher who was hanging out and several students came out of the library, because he didn't focus on running, he only thought about the teacher in his class, suddenly someone bumped into Rizal's body from the front made him fall backwards and the one who hit him fell along with some of the books he was carrying
"If you walk around, be careful not to run into people just like that!" Snapped a woman who was struggling to her feet
With alacrity, Rizal immediately helped him to his feet, not forgetting him tidying up the woman's books which were scattered on the floor "Sorry, I didn't mean to" said Rizal to the woman who was still scolding him
The woman smoothed her hair, which was a little messy, then she raised her head to look at Rizal make Rizal stare at the woman's face because her beauty is beyond expectations! Beautiful, really really pretty but too bad her behavior is fierce.
"Are you looking around? Move, I want to pass" he said as he casually walked past Rizal
Rizal continued his run to class again, when he got to the class it turned out that there were still no teachers there, Unfortunately, he was running after time until his whole body was covered in sweat. In class he finds some of his close friends, namely Zidan, Leo, and Bayu, their friends looked confused when they saw Rizal enter the classroom.
"Damn bro, it's still early in the morning, how come you already scratched your face, after being chased by a dog where did you come from?" Leo asked as he put his arm around Rizal and invited him to sit down
"Damn you, I wasn't chased by the dog, but I ran because I was afraid of being late, when the class arrived, there was still no teacher." said Rizal with his eyes staring at them one by one
"Prompt to grow, usually you just relax, not afraid to be late" Zidan grabbed the plastic drink that Bayu was holding.
"I don't want to be punished, stupid! My gosh. Oh yeah, when I got to the corridor I got into a collision with a girl who swore she was really a girl but how fierce it is! I get scolded by him even though I accidentally crashed into someone else in a hurry." Rizal explained, leaning his back against the bench with his head tilted upwards imagining the face of the woman he had just met.
"Who is bro?" Asked Bayu who was starting to be curious, of course, about discussing beautiful women, Bayu is the master!
"I also don't know bro, before during school here I never saw him, if you see from his appearance like not a student"
"Is she the girl we met earlier?" Leo asked Bayu, who was wearing a face that was difficult to interpret. In Rizal's eyes, makes Rizal wonder what Bayu means
"What's up with you?" Asked Rizal
"Can you explain it not wrong? How are the characteristics of a girl like that?" Bayu even asked back
Rizal daydreams trying to remember the woman in question, but unfortunately he doesn't remember the characteristics of that woman. all he remembers is her beautiful face, he justifies his sitting position facing the front
"well that's the girl!" Exclaimed Rizal, pointing to the woman who had just entered his class
"That's a new teacher, hey!" Spontaneously, Leo grabbed Rizal's hand who was pointing at the teacher. if only caught, maybe Rizal would be punished for pointing at the teacher is an act of disrespect.
"What? New teacher?" Rizal asked in disbelief
"Yes. You still don't believe it? Even though he's already in front of you"
"Good morning, students" he said
"Morning Teacher! ”The students answered in unison with enthusiasm which actually came from the male voice that was heard made up with looks that stare in awe at the teachers
"Before we introduce ourselvess students my name is Clarissa Andini. You can call me Mrs. Risa, I will teach mathematics here to replace Mrs. Ina who is continuing her education abroad, I think the introduction is enough to stop here, are there any children you want to ask?" said Mrs. Risa
All the students were silent, no one dared to speak, especially the boys who still felt at home staring in awe at Mrs. Risa
"Hey you, don't be idle. Look forward!"
Quickly, Leo patted Rizal's shoulder, awakening from his reverie "Woy! You called Mrs. Risa!"
"Oh yes ma'am, I also pay attention" said Rizal stuttering
"Very nice! Pay attention. I will attend you one by one"
Mrs. Risa also started calling the names of the students listed on the absences flat one by one starting from the order of the initials A until it didn't feel like they had reached the initials F which meant there was Rizal's name
"Fahrul Rozi Abdillah"
"There ma'am"
"Fakhrizal Alghiffari"
"Yes ma'am, present"
After hearing Rizal answer and raise her hand, Mrs. Risa did not continue her attendance activities but instead she stared silently at Rizal, Meanwhile, Rizal, who was stared at him, was confused. What is wrong with Rizal? Is there something strange about his face? Or was the teacher watching him because he had hit him earlier, until a few seconds of staring at Rizal's face then Bu ris continued her absent activity until it was over.
"Okay, I have all been absent. Are there any students whose names I feel I did not summon?" Asked Mrs. Risa
"There is no ma'am" answered the students partly
"Alright, if you have. Please open your package book page 47"
During Mrs. Risa's teaching, there were a lot of boys who didn't focus on the material, instead they focused more on Mrs. Risa's beautiful face until the king of playboy in that class, Bayu, was so mesmerized.
Rizal shook his head at his best friend, always never absent about staring at beautiful women, There is a little clear girl who directly brush her eyes will not blink until the girl is out of sight.
"Fakhrizal! What are you doing shaking your head? You're not focused on my material!"
"Eh, nnn ... no Ma'am not, I'm focused!" Rizal dodged nervously, how could he not? When he looked at the teacher straight at the glare suddenly
"If you are really focused, try to explain again what I just explained!" Challenge Mrs. Risa
"Oh, ma'am, umm, I don't know ma'am, can you explain again?"
"See! You really don't pay attention to me, standing in front of the blackboard there until my class is over!" Mrs. Risa commanded fiercely while pointing at the blackboard using the long ruler she was holding
"But--"
"Don't argue! Get up there quickly. This is punishment for you for not listening to my explanation, there is a teacher explaining in front of his eyes instead of focus anywhere" Mrs. Risa grumbled irritably
With slow steps, Rizal walked to the front of the blackboard. It was the first time to just teach and play student law, that's really cruel, teacher!
In the afternoon Rizal and Risa are busy tidying up Risa's belongings which she will bring to her in-laws' house, they cleaned everything together without anyone's help anymore because Risa's parents had left a long time ago because her father's work couldn't stay too long, and also Rizal's parents have been home early since morning"You have a lot of stuff, baby, astaghfirullah ..." This is the umpteenth time Rizal has complained about seeing the luggage that Risa is going to bring "continue this again, what are you doing with all the cooking utensils.?""Yes, make me cook there" said Risa angrily"Yes, but please ... we don't want to move to a rented house but want to move to my parents' house and it's not an empty house, there are already a lot of household furniture, so you don't have to bring a blender with this pot, there are already a lot of them there too" Rizal let out a tired breath"But it's different again, it's belongings of
The day that Rizal and Risa have been waiting for arrives, the day they will be bound in one sacred bond for life. The marriage contract process will be carried out at the bride's residence at exactly eight o'clock in the morning. As Risa suggested to Rizal a few days ago that she wouldn't invite too many guests and sure enough he only invited the family of the bride and groom as well as the neighbors and friends of Risa who came, namely LitaRisa's family neighbors were initially very surprised when they received an invitation that Risa would get married until a lot of bad news broke out in her neighborhood, How come? Risa, who as far as they know has recently returned from Spain to Indonesia, will suddenly just get married, not a few of her neighbors thought that Risa got married because she was pregnant first. But Mamah Risa hastily confirmed the news that all was not true, Risa got married. It's already because she met her soul mate and it's also time
At night, Risa looked at her reflection in front of the mirror, she checked her appearance whether it was worth seeing? And whether the clothes are suitable for dating? This time he was dressed simply and not too complicated, using black baggy pants and combine it with a plain white t-shirt and a yellow Levis jacket, Do not forget the small bag that he likes to carry when traveling besides teaching.He let his beautiful long hair loose just like that, after making sure his appearance was okay he came out of the room and walked down the stairs of his house, Risa decided to wait for Rizal to arrive on the terrace of her house because her parents still didn't come home, Risa also had permission from her parents over the phone that she would go on a date with Rizal tonight and after all, his parents will also come home tomorrow because they are busy with their extended family there preparing something for Risa's weddingMeanwhile at Rizal's residence
"How, want it or not?" Asked Mr. Ardi who still didn't want to give up and offered him a ride"Uh yes sir, um .. that" Mrs. Risa looked confused about what to answer"If you don't want to, that's fine, mrs, but I would feel much better if Mrs. Clarissa accepted my good intentions" said Mr. Ardi with a face that made him disappointedThey didn't realize that from a few paces away they were talking, There was someone who was listening to their conversation with clenched fists in anger but that person couldn't do anything about it, he also understands about his future wife who recognizes him as a younger brother to his colleague but somehow he feels something is up in his heart because he would of course feel very happy if his future wife said that he would come home with her future husbandMrs. Risa felt more and more awkward because she felt uncomfortable, she even became embarrassed by scratching her hairRizal, who understands
On the way home from Risa's house, Rizal continues to daydream in his car seat with his gaze staring at the outside without wanting to speak a wordGetting married at such a young age, of course, is not included in the category of his life plan since Rizal was a child. However, who will know God's plan about the destiny of human life journey? Now Rizal's life is no longer as calm and smooth as when he had not met his teacher at the cafe that night. The words that were spoken from Risa's mouth just kept ringing in her ears, thinking that now her responsibility as a man is getting bigger. Now his job is not only work and school but also to be a husband who can be a role model for his wife and children in the futureRegarding the problem of having to be able to protect the heart for his wife, it made Rizal think a lot. He still quite knows himself about the problem considering that his age is still quite new to puberty, he was not sure that he would be able to withs
At night..Sure enough, Rizal came to Risa's house with his family, and the most excited there was Farah, Rizal's brother and also Risa's best friend.When having dinner together, Risa's eyes couldn't escape staring at Rizal's family one by one starting from her father, Her mother was then her youngest sister but not Farah. For Risa, Farah's face looked boring because she was always with Farah.Risa's fate will be decided tonight, with Rizal's parents agreeing to this marriage. Since earlier he had prepared his best argument so that they would cancel this ridiculous marriage with that bad boyActually right now Risa's feelings are very chaotic, she really wants to now Risa throws the plate where she is eating in front of this then she takes the broken plate and threatens the family that he would commit suicide by scratching a broken plate on his wrist if his family still forced him to marry. However, Risa is still Risa. She did not hav
