This Saturday I had no lunch outside because Mama had prepared a lunch box with cheese potato sticks and rice balls with nori, ah This mama if the employees know the menuku surely they hold a laugh. This is the menu of the son of TK. It is true, a mother sometimes still considers her adult child as a child.
After work, Mama told me that today Cantika did not come home, I know that Mama actually felt anxious about Cantika, if Cantika knew herself with parents.
Drrt... Drrtt...
My laughter trembled, it seemed like a message was coming in. Kuraih device and open the message, from Surya. The message from him always excited me to read it.
The Evil One
[Met noon, tonight there's an event, isn't there?]
Valeria
[Ga, anyway. How's it?]
The Evil One
[You're eating at a new cafe near my office.]
Valeria
[Ok deh.]
The Evil One
[Will I pick you up at home?]
Valeria
[Don't! What if Mama knows?]
The Evil One
[Hehehe, yes.]
Valeria
[In front of the alley, yes.]
The Evil One
[Okay, princess.]
I smiled, she was so sweet with me. Ah, am I ignoring her feelings too much, but am I wrong to care about my sister's feelings?
Mom was sitting in the dining chair when I came out of the room. I approached Mama, a 52-year-old mother, with a slight frown on her face, her hair was straight short and always neat. A little gray hair decorating her hair. Great wise woman.
"Ma, have you ever loved someone but need a fight to be with them?" I asked while grabbing a banana on the table.
"All love needs a fight, son. Before or together, the struggle will still be needed. If it can't destroy love itself," Mama looked at me.
I nodded.
"Ma, Val's tonight there's another show together, huh?" I asked her permission.
"Yes, Son. Is your friend a girl or a boy?"
"Cowok, Ma."
"It would be better to pick her up at home, not on the street."
"He's shy, Ma,"
Sorry, Ma. For the time being Val hasn't been able to tell her to go home, Mama would be very surprised. After all, her status was not a boyfriend.
Mama smiled, "Well, if you're not ashamed, let her go home, Mama also wants to see and know."
"But he's just a friend, Ma," I said defensively, there's no word yet between me and Surya. He still belongs to my sister. .
"Yes, Mama just wanted to know who took this Mama's child for a walk."
I just fell silent.

Hours 18.30
I got myself ready, put on a white dress and black flat shoes, stroked my hair and put on powder and a thin, pseudo-red lipstick. And say goodbye to Mama.
"Beautiful Mama's son" praised Mama as she looked at me.
"Ma, I'm leaving first, huh?"
"Be careful, son."
"Yes, Ma," I peeked her cheek and walked out into the front of the alley. Surya was waiting there. He opened the car door, looked at me and let me in.
The car drove slowly to near his office. Fortunately the road was not so jammed, so we arrived at the cafe smoothly.
The romantic cafe gives a beautiful impression for lovers, there are some electric candles on the side of the entrance. Some of the lights that are hung make the atmosphere more romantic. We got a table in the middle, deliberately to be a bit close to the cafe singer.
At that time the singer Cafe was singing the song Jaz - From Mata
Your eyes weaken me
When I first saw you
And honestly, I never felt
I never felt this way
Your eyes weaken me
And honestly, I never felt
I never felt this way
Oh, maybe this is love
The first look
Because of what I think, this is unusual
If this is true love
Start where?
Oh, where'd it come from?
From your eyes, your eyes
I'm starting to fall in love
I see, see
There's shadow
From the eye
You made me fall
Falling on, falling on to the heart.

Surya looked at me for a long time, I was wrong. Fortunately our order came soon, then we enjoyed the music while eating and drinking.
The cafe opened a week ago, but the visitors are quite crowded. While enjoying the atmosphere of the cafe, suddenly someone patted my shoulder.
"Sister! What else is there? Ooh, so you two are behind me!!" Cantika shouted without concern for the cafe visitors. Next to him, Denis looks confused holding Cantika's shoulder.
Mukaku pias, shocked because he did not expect the presence of Cantika there. So does Surya. He immediately stood up and pulled Cantika's hand to get out of the quiet situation of the cafe which he damaged because all the cafe visitors were looking sharply at us.
Denis and I looked up and followed them, standing some distance away from them. They seemed to be fighting with my mouth, I had never seen Surya that angry, but despite being slapped by Cantika, Surya did not reply. I tried to get up close to them.
"You, big brother, it turns out to be a date with my lover!" he screamed while pointing at me.
My heart is beating fast, what should I explain?
Denis was suddenly next to me, "Love? Mean you?" his eyes were on Cantika.
Cantika's face turned pale and realized that Denis was there, and then she fell silent.
Surya looked back at Cantika, "Listen yes, I have nothing to do with Valeria except work partners, but I don't know about it after tonight. From now on, don't consider me your girlfriend again! Oh yeah, Valeria is a good sister, don't think bad about her! Catch that!" surya said while showing his index finger to Cantika.
Denis got angry and left. Before he left, Denis told me, "Sorry Val, I don't know if your sister has a guy."
"Dennis! Waitaminute! I can clear it!" Cantika followed Denis. He called out to Denis. Looks like he managed to hold Denis back and I don't know what they're talking about.
Surya told me to wait for him, he paid for our food and then came back to see me and took me to the car. In the car he is seen sighing, taking a bottle of mineral water and sipping it to the end. For a moment we were in the car. I'm still shocked by what happened. What I was afraid of happened, somehow our brotherhood would come to pass. I cupped both hands to my face, sighing in order to calm myself down.
"Are you okay?" surya asked while holding my cold hand.
"Your hands are cold" he said.
I can't speak. He held both of my hands to keep them warm.
"I'll be fine" I said at last.
"Now, where are you going?" ask Surya.
"In the meantime, I still want to be here. I think about my family, how Papa and Mama would know all this, they'd be sad."
Surya took off his hand, but just kept quiet.
"I know Denis and Cantika. Lunch time near the city center, I saw them making out, but to tell you, I can't prove it yet. Afraid you'll break up Cantika without proof. Want me to just show you and when you know, be able to talk to Cantika in a good way, but even this is how it happened," I explained with eyes looking forward.
"It's not your fault, rest assured, everything will be fine, I will always help you. Just tell me if you need help," said Surya trying to relieve my heart.
"I want to explain to Mama and Papa about all this, let alone that they know you," I said, looking at him.
"Of course, I'll explain everything. My relationship with Cantika is over. If I had explained to your parents about that, if anything had happened to Cantika, it was none of my business anymore" he said.
"All right," I said rather calmly.
"Is there anything else that bothers you?" tanyakanya.
"Only Cantika, I don't know what her attitude will be like, especially to me."
"We'll see with time, hopefully he can change his attitude" he said.
"Aren't you breaking up with Cantika?" I asked later, remembering her feelings.
"There is something I regret" he said with a smile.
I looked back to the front, I really wanted it not to be like this.
