I complained to my friend. While I was packing books and proposals seminars campus. 

And today my schedule proposals must be done.

" Rey , could you take me to the campus right now... ? " I begged her.

But there was no response at all.

" Rey..Rey..Rey .. " i called her again.

" Huh ... ok dear, calm down darling " her answered with little angry face .

The habits how Rey  called me by the name of Pina , whereas Irvina my name. 

Not because she is the Sundanese , but she enjoy called Pina. 

But I do not care about it all this time .

Actually every day,i always got angry about it and the edges

and immediately rushed to basecamp a conference room .

" Oh my God.. That girl called me Go-Jek ". 

As she passed the responsibility and start rode a motors.

He also often become the topic of conversation among female students on the campus, 

and also all my friends in boarding house often talking about him,

.

Suddenly there are voices on the sidelines in the our discussions.

" I am so sorry, may I permit out briefly to meet my thesis lecturer? " .

Because there was no one to take the proposal,so I hurried up to boarding house.

I arrived at the boarding house already common greeted teasing of Rey 

"Ciyee..who is coming..?" ,

" I'm tired Rey,i want to pray and get rest ."

Suddenly my phone was ringing. 

Immediately I looked in my bag and I read a message,

And I entered the room kept the story to Rey , and I cried uncontrollably. 

And Rey embraced and makes me to calm down .

" I'm embarrassed with Hisyam, 

and I do not want to meet or participate in meetings with him again " .

" Pin calm down .... it is accident. 

Just take a lesson from this event and hopefully no anything. 

Just pray " And Rey tried to calm me down .

One week passed, I will never again come to the agenda of the meeting or the seminar. 

Although many incoming messages asked me to attend the seminar, 

because however I secretary in our seminar. But I don’t care about it. 

I'm more embarrassed if I met up Hisyam , 

I don’t care about my duties organized , that's all.

Two weeks , three weeks it still can not shake off a sense of regret 

and shame to take part in the organization's meetings . 

I mostly leave campus and go back home. 

In boarding house, i Just read my favorite novels 

such Asma Nadia and Salim A. Fillah books.

This afternoon , I while lying down and read a novel by Asma Nadia, 

the titled " Assalamualaikum Beijing " that Novel so popular in my campuses .

Suddenly  Rey back home and she always bullying " Assalamualaikum my mate, 

which is more fun to read and read novels until forget 

there was a meeting at our organisation as well "

I don’t care about her. 

And Rey  talks and talks like a bird that has not been fed its mother. 

Suddenly Rey talks about somebody name on my ears, 

this sounds little sensitive. 

Yeah..she talking about Hisyam , yeah..Hisyam. 

That acccident  make me be like this, embarrassed as hell 

" Hisyam asked about you, he said how do you feel? " Rey said .

I always do not care it.

" Pin , are you hear what i’m talking about, right ? " Asked rey.

" Hmmm ... yes I listening. Then what i can do? " I replied.

" Right. Good question. He was asked me, when the time he met me in campus. 

He Said why you never participate in meetings . 

He asked again, Irvina is allright? " Rey stories.

"  and then... " I replied as i read my novels .

" Then... He asked again, what is going on Rey? Is she already has  another boyfriend..?   

why so rarely participate in meetings " continued Rey .

" She's more fun with ... immediately he cuts  my explained.  And he said,

So,I immediately cut off because i’m so angry. You are correct.

Let me  finished what i talking about. Don’t cut off it, Sir. And.... He loughed at me.

* Five months passed *

Hisyam already a graduate, and I began to actively in organized again . 

And this holiday, that suddenly I got messages from my family. 

They asked to back home . Unusually my mother asked me to home quickly. 

Finally I go home. I Arrived,but I felt confused, why my house so crowded at this time, 

and no one I know. Only a few neighbors and even then the brothers and sisters. 

Suddenly I entered, there were called " Assalamualaikum Irvina " .

"The voice ... " I thought seemed familiar . I caught a figure, Hisyam.. i feell wondering.

" Waalaikumsalamwarohmatullahi wabarokatuh " I replied as needed .

I wondered "what is happening right now? , why he knew my house? 

and what He’s did in my house? " 

All the question marks were answered already by my mother, 

Hasyim and his family had been intending to merried me. 

And it feels like a dream you know. 

Hasyim, who perfect person in my campus and 

many girls love him and right now he came to my house, 

to ask my favor, because he saw when I do not wear the hijab in the first time . 

And I thought it is a disgrace in my life,but it is a miracle of love.

Yeah, I really do not know with Miracle of God. Thanks God.
