Latif woke up at the dawn call to prayer and prayed in congregation at the mosque near his house as usual. then after that Latif called his friend asking about Zia's photo from the sender who didn't know if it was original or edited and Latif's friend said that the photo was engineered or edited.
At Latif's house, coincidentally, a friend named Malik who is a photographer grader and a reliable photo editor went to his house at Latif's request, fortunately their house was only 50 meters away so Malik wanted to go to his friend's house early in the morning.
"Bro, while you are here, I want to ask you about photos, do you think this is original or edited?" said Latif curiously.
"Here, let me check first, this is an engineering bro who edits very smartly. You look like the original photo but this is 1000% edited." Malik said confidently.
"The truth is, bro, oh God, it turns out that I have misunderstood". said Latif regretfully.
"Yes, bro, it's edited. I'm very sure that it's edited, I've checked everything and it's proven to be edited." Malik said reassuringly.
Because of Zia's deep guilt, even Latif forgot his heartbreak for his former lover who is an LGBT person. Latif is very sorry to have badmouthed him in front of his father even latin has labeled him as a seducer without knowing the real truth, now sister is confused how to apologize to him even though he doesn't know that Latif once had him because he received foreign parcels from his house that. Now Latif was confused about who actually sent the package why did he say that. "He is his, his wife and and he even said that he had touched her first, oh yes there was even a message about the red rose to black riddle? that was what Latif was thinking now.
"Oh yeah bro, I'm late at teaching, just go home, there's a snack in the fridge you can bring, thank you for helping me...," said Latif gently driving away.
"You're so outrageous bro, just played here after all this time and you've been kicked out, but it's okay as long as you get a free snack or free... hehehehe." said Malik happily.
"I'm really sorry bro, I'm not kicking you out, I'm just telling you to go home because I have many things to do." said Latif starting to expel again.
"Yes, yes, I'm home, who wants to get ready to meet my fiancé, I forget that friend." said Malik dramatically.
"What, Lo, I'm disgusted by your face." said Latif lazily seeing Malik's pretended sad face.
After the eviction incident, finally Latif is now at university, Latif has learned that Zia did wear a headscarf when she was in college but she didn't still wear the hijab, aka she was still wearing it, because she's still studying, don't ask Latif where she came from, of course with the money she can pay people to find out. That's even Latif has sent several detectives to keep an eye on Zia, and also find out who sent the package containing the riddle.
"Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh", said Latif after entering the class.
"Waalaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, sir". said the students in unison.
"Please start the presentation to the next group, and a collection of individual assignments in the form of videos and reports that I requested last week".
"Okay sir".
"Sorry sir, I missed my assignment, sir, the video is there but the report is still at the boarding house. Am I allowed to pick it up at the boarding house?" Zia said.
"Kamu temui saya nanti setelah Zuhur." kata Latif formal.
"Yes sir". said Zia a little scared.
"Oh, how could I forget, stupid, stupid, stupid ... my father must be angry, then I was given a lot of tasks." Zia said a mumble that only she and Sasya could hear.
"How could you forget, Sis, last night I remembered what Sasya said?! said Sasya.
"Yes, deck, I entered the wrong assignment, there is also an assignment that must be submitted tomorrow, Mrs. Maisa." Zia said weakly.
Then the class went on as usual with presentation, discussion and closing.
Zia then performed the midday prayer at the campus mosque with Sasya and other students. then his friends went home first, namely Lia, Melia, Lucia, and Sasya. because Zia met in Latif's room past noon as Latif ordered earlier.
Zia then knocked on the door....
"Greetings sir". Zia said as she knocked on the door.
"Waalaikumussalam, please come in." Latif said flatly.
"Here, sir, I want to collect assignments," said Zia, previously Zia asked her classmate who was still at the boarding house to take up the assignments that were left behind and fortunately her classmate was in the middle of the day.
"I didn't say I would accept your late assignment." said Latif still maintaining a straight face. Whereas in Latif's heart he wanted to laugh seeing Zia's panicked face which was funny to him.
"Then why was I summoned here, sir? Do I have additional assignments, please don't make my grades, sir, I don't want to repeat next year." said Zia very frantically.
"Hahaha..... your scared face is so funny .....," said Latif, who laughed effortlessly.
Oh Allah, what favor have I denied until I didn't realize that this kiler lecturer can be so handsome when he laughs, thought Zia.
"Why are you daydreaming, I accept your assignment, and don't worry I'm not that cruel to give you an e, but starting tomorrow you will be my assistant." said Latif casually.
"But sir, why should ?, there are still many who are smarter than me?" said Zia, who actually wanted to dodge because she didn't want to be too close to her fiancé, then it would break her heart later.
"You're the one who's late in collecting assignments, aren't you, do you want me to accept your assignment or not?!" said Latif firmly.
"Yes sir, okay I will be your secretary." said Zia wearily.
"I'm sorry now you can get out of my room." Latif said sounding guilty.
"Okay sir, thank you." said Zia with a forced smile and then left the room before the killer teacher changed his mind.
After Zia's departure, Latif was relieved to have apologized to Zia, although in a way that Zia didn't understand. sometimes we can't guess people just because from our own point of view, we need the help of others to pull ourselves together.
at least that's what Latif thinks now, he loves his ex-lover too much not to hear his parents' response to their relationship when they were dating, but Zia he can make Latif calm and comfortable without fearing that his parents won't accept him, Latif's divine being considers him perfect and innocent, even because of her innocence she doesn't realize that she is being taken advantage of by many people.
