In another location, still on the same day, October 19, 2016, at 09.00 Western Indonesia Time, Professor Ida was sitting in his chair, typing the Year-End Work Report of the Faculty of Mathematics and Technology, Siupala University. Next to her laptop, there was a copy of the Media Kampus News newspaper which she bought from a newspaper delivery man on her way to work. Reading the headlines and the contents of the newspaper headlines made her smile to herself.  "This is the right time to put Dirman into the Chair of the Rector Election Committee," she thought. Professor Ida pressed a 12-digit number on his cellphone screen to call Dirman as his interlocutor. "Morning, Assalamu'alaikum, Mr. Dirman," Professor Ida said. "Morning, Mrs. Ida. Wa'alaikumsalam. Is there anything I can help you with, Ma'am?" Dirman said. "Yes. Please convey to all faculty leaders who support Professor Mirza to gather in my room this afternoon,

The question from his only daughter made Mirza a little surprised, for a moment. However, Mirza remained still and relaxed in responding to Lusi's question.   "It's impossible for such a father to burden your husband with strange tasks that violate the rules,"   "Really? Don't you lie?"   "Hmm. Are you still doubting your own father?"   "I don't mean to doubt you as my father. I don't want Dirman to be burdened with things beyond his responsibility," said Lusi, softly.   "Keep relaxed, my daughter. You don't have to worry about that. Wait for dad in Surabaya this afternoon, okay?"   "Yes. Be careful on the way, Dad,"   Professor Mirza ended the conversation with his daughter after greeting. He put his phone back in his shirt pocket.   "Are we still far away?" He asked the taxi driver.   "Yes, sir.

I heard that Mr. Dirgo as the dean will provide facilities in the form of a lawyer to assist me in litigating the events that I have experienced,""Hmm. So far, has the rector given any attention to what happened to you?" asked Frans, again."Not yet.

Be patient," said Eddy.Seeing the situation that tends to lead to a sad atmosphere, Anita tried to break the tension."Come on, let's eat first.
