LOVE IS NOT LIKE
Chaptre8
In the room Ali is still busy putting his things in the suitcase, tomorrow he has a flight to Singapore for 4 days. He is used to cleaning joints like this because he knows better which one he needs. Finished preparing everything, Ali immediately lay in his bed. He observed the ceiling of his room while thinking about Prilla, who else. Lately his mind has never been separated from the girl.
He smiled thinking about it.
Sometimes the feeling can not be guessed when and to whom. Just like Ali feels today. Even he had only met a few times with the girl, but it was successful in making him miss suddenly . Ali rubbed his face rough. He thought is it too much?
We ourselves are sometimes rendered helpless by love. Love by falling in love is 2 different things. When we are in love, we will only feel beautiful. We will not think about the bitterness. But love is different when we are sure to love someone. Then by itself we will accept all forms of taste, whether sweet or bitter then we will be willing to swallow it without any hesitation. We will willingly accept all forms of pain together, living all forms of happiness together. That's love, not falling in love.
Ali was still loyal to his own thoughts. Didn't expect that he would say love to Prilla so soon. The rain has become a silent witness of the many memories that Ali will never forget.

Otherside. Prilla still looks busy with some of her documents. Really, he could not think because he remembered Ali's words this afternoon. Simple but it's. Prilla smiled to herself imagining it. Honestly, when Ali said that, Prilla was a little incredulous. They have only met a few times. And Ila also admitted, he also felt very comfortable when he was on Ali's side. But comfort is not enough to conclude that it is love !
He tries to focus on completing his work. Won't his school birthday be held in 5 days?
He then checked back on various preparations and gave a sign of what was really mature. The arrangement of the event he made was also examined again. Stay looking for a magician to entertain children and play games on the sidelines of break events.
He glanced at the clock on the side of the table. Half 9, muttered ila. He pu took the basket and took the hp. Looking for his sister's number. He truly missed the voice of his beloved brother. They should be missing each other right now. Sharing laughter and stories, especially Prilla will soon be married. But unfortunately when he came home from teaching him in Kalimantan, after a few days his sister there was a call to duty in Bali for a month.
A few moments of a continuous tone sounded across there. Ila's still waiting. But there's no answer anyway.
"is he still busy? "ila muttered in the heart.
Several times he tried to contact but was not answered. He was really worried about his sister now.soon he sent a message to his sister to immediately contact him if it was not busy.
Ila then decided to sleep because there was nothing to do. Want to watch tv down was lazy, because papa and his mother left for Ambon after Ila returned from Ali's house earlier.

At half-time 4am Ali was awakened by his alarm. Soon he turned off the sound that was very disturbing him. He changed his position to sit up and gathered his consciousness. Rubbing his jet eyes that still feel lazy to open. Immediately he uncovers his thick blanket and walks lazily to the bathroom. I really don't like the early morning flight. But how else. This is his duty, isn't it?
At 5 he left for the airport after previously saying goodbye to his mother. Usually his brother will accompany his mother when he Flight, pity if the mother had to be alone lonely at home.
Today he decided to take the car. He felt lazy driving the car. He checked his phone. There's a notif from Andra.
Andra
To the apartment first?
Ali
No, you want to airport. Why emang?
Andra
Please buy medicine for loose dong? I swear, I can't stand it. Mules 😫
Ali chuckled at the message from Andra. Even when he was sick stomach he still had time to include the emot. Ali bobbing head.
Ali
Forgive me Ndra, you text me mornin2 just to tell it?
Andra
Buru ah, anyway you have to go to the apartment first.
Ali
Ja.. Tar I buyin.
Andra
All the chicken porridge in the apartment, make breakfast
Ali
Ja..
Andra
Thanks cap darling.. Tmbh dear...
Ali
Unsullied..
Ali then told the driver to stop at the supermarket which was open 24 hours to buy Andra's order. He actually pityes. Andra lives in Jakarta herself. While his parents in Bandung to take care of business that centered there. Their families are close. Her mother and Andra's mother were also good friends and it seemed that the old man's friendship was declining to their children. Actually he's a cool guy, but sometimes it turns out to be very annoying, like he's doing right now. He told Ali to buy him some medicine and chicken porridge.
But even so, Ali did not deny that Andra was his best friend. Even his mother and sister already consider Andra his own family. Even mother and kaia once offered Andra to live together, but Andra did not want to with the reason of wanting to study independently. Though the real reason he just wants to avoid the supervision of his mother in order to hang out every time. Andra and Ali have never been to a nightclub. They still understand and maintain and maintain reasonable limits.
Not long after Ali arrived in front of the apartment. He bought chicken porridge andra order. He told the driver to wait for him for a while. Maybe today he will come a little late from the usual hours he came, but most importantly do not mess up the flight schedule.
It looks like Andra is curling up on the couch while grimacing in pain holding his stomach when Ali has entered. I don't know what he ate wrong like this. A handsome face that usually looks cool now looks very tangled with a groan of pain that adds a strange impression on his face. Making his wife become a pilot don juan who as I look macho disappeared instantly. Oh.. Can Ali laugh?
Actually Ali wanted to ask the cause he could be like this, but he did not do it. He knew andra would sewot. As much as possible Ali held his laughter as he approached Andra.
"what are you, see me on a gini cake? "the fetus andra while continuing to hold his stomach.
Ali who had been holding back laughter could not hold back anymore. He laughed over the suffering of his own friends.
"where's medicine? "say Andra ketus.
Ali immediately handed over the medicine as well as the chicken porridge.
"want to help? "asked Ali as she followed andra towards the kitchen while trying to continue to hold back her smile.
"help the prayer" answered andra while taking her medicine.
"it's sono you set off, tar the passengers are late on the rampage" Andra said a little subtly with a glance at ali.
"iya m I otw first. If why2 call Mother aja. "say Ali while passing towards the door followed by andra behind him.
"yes done, Eli.salam make ica" said andra with a smile .
"yes if you meet? "say Ali as he passed away.
Fortunately, Andra is on holiday today. Try kalo ngak. Bisa2 he asked me to make him his license too. Ali muttered in his heart.
He continued his journey to the airport.

At 6 ila down. There's still bread and chocolate jam.
"enough for breakfast" said ila in the heart.
He also put some bread with jam. Caught him alone. Yes, because mama and her papa will only come home the day after tomorrow.
seen some reply from Prilly, he immediately opened it.
Prilla smiled anxiously reading a series of messages from her sister.
Derrick
Brother, sorry. Phone ngak keangat. I am busy again. Continue to fit tlfon back already malem, sister certainly already sleeping too right. I'm here baik2 aja, alhamdulillah. Residents around are also friendly2.temen2 is also good. I miss knowing the same brother mom and dad.
Tar klo I go home anyway I want to sleep hugged brother. All want to ask for a lollipop with brother.
Oh yeah, how's the big sister, handsome? Ok ngak?
Prilla was very excited to read it. Moreover, the spoiled attitude of his sister is not lost even though he is an adult. He immediately typed a reply for his sister.
Prilla
Thank God you are good. Just keep it away from us.
Yes, nnti klo home sleep brother hug deh, tar sis belin lollipop one seed, fear your teeth tooth tooth tooth tooth toothless.
If about the prospective sister, then brother tflon you just make a story.
After typing reply. Ila rushed to her school. He doesn't want to be late. Since childhood, he has been taught discipline. Today he uses his papa car. The car is not finished because the spare parts for the car are not yet available, maybe 5 days later will only be sent. Prilla himself did not have time if he had to find another workshop to fix it.
He runs his black car. Chasing time before it gets stuck is too bad. Because he most dislikes the event jams.not anything,ila just not too like to hear the sound of the vehicle horn that always dominates when traffic jams arrive. They should also be aware that no matter how loud their horn sounds, it will not immediately be able to break down the congestion. About telolet..
Just seen some vehicles parked in the school parking area when Prilla arrived. The students also saw a few. Take a leisurely walk through the school parking area. Enjoying these times, the time where he can finally realize his mind2 become a teacher.
He was still focused on his own thoughts while walking down the still quiet school hallway. Seeing Kindergarten's children's classes made him remember his childhood.
He smiled, remembering he and Prilly at the first school. Prilla was very shy, but different from her sister. Her sister is arguably very active. Even Prilly who invited him to enter class and get acquainted with other friends. Mamah who at that time delivered just a smile to see the same 2 children but different. For his parents, Prilla and Prilly complement each other with all the advantages and disadvantages of each of their parents were never at all differentiated in everything. They taught him not to envy each other, to share both joy and sorrow. He and his brother rarely quarrel.
He went into the teacher's room, and he went to his desk. Not forgetting that he greeted his fellow teachers.
"morning angel? "the tease of Mr. Anton who suddenly appeared.
Which made ila instantly look towards the voice. Ila just responded with a smile.
"Don't want to be combined ma'am, he's a lot of victims" said Melda who was cool eating breakfast in the morning while laughing.
"Mother melda jealously said so. Later there is a turn for mother" replied Mr. Anton casually while blinking one eye towards bu Melda.
"what am I, huh? Scroll around. " said bu melda did not accept.
"what do you want to call mom? Wife?
Calm down, after teaching I will immediately apply for mother" said pak anton with his cool style.
Ms. Melda rolled her lazy eyeballs and resumed her morning meal.
"how many wives is anton?to 2 "Pak Angga who is actually a playmate of Mr. Anton iku said.
"how else? "answered Mr. Anton while laughing followed by Mr. Angga simultaneously.
"playboy base" grumbled bu melda while throwing paper at Anton sir and Angga sir.
Prilla just smiled at the drama that had happened so often. Although often jokes are unclear, they will get better again. They also know the limits in joking. They understand that some of them have families. It must be within its reasonable limits.
Ila walks to her class with Nadia's mom. After a few days of acquaintance, they look more familiar. They are no longer awkward to just ask and occasionally throw jokes at each other.
"i was classy first, Mom? "ila's camel on nadia when it arrived was interrupted.
"oh yes, I want to perpus first. "say Miss Nadia later.
The atmosphere looks crowded, understand this kindergarten. Some seemed cool chatting telling stories others were playing. Not realizing that his teacher was sitting and supported by his chin while smiling at his student2.
"Assalmualaikum"sapa. Which immediately makes the attention of children focused on him.
"waalaikumussalam" they answered in unison with a smile.
After that they pray in accordance with daily habits.Done obscure and a little joking to students yes he then continued his learning material. Today learning to read. Patiently and painstakingly Prilla taught them. The interaction between teacher and student is very active. Prilla was easily familiar with them. Vice versa.
The learning went well as usual. Sendau joking with anak2 always Prilla do so that anak2 not easily bored.
"Beauty mom. "call one of her lakin2 students enthusiastically.
Prilla is cool teaching other students who have not been able to look at him.
"why dear? Can't anyone yet?" asked Ila gently as she walked up to him.
"continue the sleeping crita" said the boy by showing his puppy eyes. Ila who looks anxious is not the power to pinch her cheek softly. Another Anak2 who heard that immediately turned to Ila.
"iya bu taujin" whined them in a spoiled tone.
Ila breathed out softly while smiling at her student child.
"alright, but your task must be completed first" said ila
"well. "complain them in unison.
"can't do that. We can not delay the task. "clearly Prilla to the child of his students who bowed listlessly
"mother promise me, if you have finished it, then I will continue until the story runs out" continued Prilla then accompanied by a cheerful voice from her students.
Prilla looked at the timepiece that was coiling in her hand, "half 12" muttered ila in heart. This afternoon there will be another meeting until the birthday of the school is really ready. He walked past the classes that had been disbanded half an hour ago.
Because the teaching hours are up he decided to kemusholla school while waiting for azan dzuhur. After previously he first put the book2 teaching him his work shirt.
Seen some teachers were also busy sitting while chatting. Prilla also joined them because they already know each other.
