"Assalamualaikum.."
Kanaya linked her eyebrows when she heard a familiar voice on Kanaya's ears across the line. Kanaya snorted annoyed with herself.
'Why did I receive this call. Why didn't I know that this is the killer lecturer's number. Huh.. The effect of never saving the killer lecturer's contact number is like this. Ah. Never mind.. Rice has become mush. Absurdly responsible. Just accept the call from the most annoying lecturer,' thought Kanaya.
"If someone says hello, Kanaya answers. You don't need to speak to my future wife," said Pak Daren from across the line.
Kanaya was stunned by what the killer lecturer who was across the line said at this time. Kanaya clucked angrily and Pak Daren heard Kanaya cluck angrily.
"Don't be too confident yourself. Who is willing to be your wife? Indeed, who is willing to accept your application? "You killer lecturer," replied Kanaya curtly.
"I don't need an answer whether you are willing or not. For me, the most important thing is the blessing of my parents and future in-laws. My parents and future in-laws have given their blessing to me to propose and marry you. "You must be willing to accept my proposal to make you my wife," said Mr. Daren.
Kanaya chuckled again in annoyance at what this very pushy killer lecturer said, "In your dreams, sir killer lecturer. I am not willing to be your wife. Stiff people like kanebo and like to force. I can't possibly live with someone like you. You killer lecturer!" Kanaya scolded.
"I will give you a D grade in my course, the future wife of a killer lecturer." Mr. Daren threatens Kanaya.
"You think I will be afraid of your threats? I am not afraid of your threats. I got a bad grade from the course you teach in the fourth semester. If you want to give me a bad rating, please do. "I would rather get bad grades from you than have to be your wife," said Kanaya, full of emotion.
Tut..
Kanaya hung up the phone without waiting for a reply from Pak Daren who was on the other side of the line. Kanya again put the cellphone on the bedside table and then pulled the blanket under her feet to protect Kanaya's body from the cold air created by the air conditioner in Kanaya's room.

Mr. Daren shook his head when Kanaya unilaterally disconnected the telephone line. Mr Daren stared blankly at the cellphone screen which now looked dark. I don't know why Mr. Daren is attracted to this tomboyish, arrogant and sloppy woman named Kanaya. The student on campus, the killer lecturer, who often comes late to Mr. Daren's class with his candid appearance and attitude according to Kanaya's heart, attracts Mr. Daren's attention and curiosity about Kanaya's figure. Mr. Daren felt a flutter in his heart when he was near Kanaya. Even Pak Daren felt sad when Kanaya came late to Pak Daren's class and Pak Daren punished Kanaya for the sake of discipline that Pak Daren always applied to every student on campus.
Pak Daren also did not understand why Pak Daren had the courage to say that he would propose to Kanaya in front of Kanaya's parents when he visited Kanaya's parents' house this afternoon. Pak Daren just wanted to stay in touch to get to know Kanaya's parents and to find information about Kanaya. However, Mr. Daren changed his mind when he heard Kanaya's reason for arriving late today at the class taught by Mr. Daren. Pak Daren felt guilty for not being willing to listen to Kanaya's explanation this morning. Pak Daren smiled remembering all about Kanaya. Kanaya's attitude, Kanaya's appearance and everything that is in Kanaya can attract Pak Daren's attention. Who knows. Pak Daren also doesn't know why Pak Daren's heart fluttered when he saw Kanaya with all the simplicity behind that tomboyish appearance.
Mr. Daren got up from his seat and walked towards the bed to rest his body after feeling tired all day with today's activities as a lecturer on campus. Ah.. To be more precise, killer lecturers on campus.

"Papa.. Mama.. Will there be an event tonight or not?" asked Daren after enjoying his breakfast.
"No Ren. Why yes Ren?" replied Daren's papa named Richard.
"Daren wants to ask papa and mama to take Daren to someone's place. Daren wants to propose to a woman to be Daren's wife," Daren added.
Papa Richard and Mama Mira, Daren's parents, were stunned after hearing what Daren said. Papa Richard and Mama Mira looked at each other with questioning eyes. Papa Richard and Mama Mira stared at Daren who looked relaxed while eating the fruit that had been cut by Mama Mira.
"Are you serious? Papa didn't mishear what you said, right Daren?" asked Papa Richard.
"Did Daren ever lie to mom and dad? Yesterday papa and mama asked Daren to get married quickly. Daren wanted to propose to someone else's child, papa and mama didn't believe it. Then what should Daren do?" Daren replied with a grunt of annoyance.
"That's not what Daren's dad meant. It's not that daddy doesn't believe it. But papa and mama know that you have always been distant and even tend to be antipathetic towards women. "How can papa and mama not be surprised to hear that you are going to propose to someone else's child," explained Papa Richard.
"After all, Daren doesn't like women who are excessive and only aim for wealth, Dad," said Daren.
"Okay. Whoever is the lucky woman who has won your heart, papa and mama will approve. "Papa and Mama will propose to the lucky woman, Daren," concluded Papa Richard.
"Thanks dad and mom. Daren went to campus first. Daren has a class at nine o'clock," said Daren then got up from his seat and walked towards papa and mama to kiss the back of his parents' hands.
Daren walked towards the car that had been prepared by Mr. Rahman, a worker who specifically takes care of cars for the Daren family. Papa and mama looked at Daren's back with happy smiles after hearing Daren's good intentions.
"Alhamdulillah... our child is finally getting married, yes, ma'am," said Papa Richard.
"Yes, sir. We have to bless whoever Daren chooses, right?" Mira's mother replied.
"Yes ma'am," said papa Richard then embraced his wife's shoulder.
Papa Richard and mama Mira felt very happy after hearing Daren's good intentions. Papa Richard then said goodbye to his wife to go to the office after kissing his beloved wife on the forehead.
