Rifky was struggling with the laptop in front of him. Although his body is very tired, but he is not discouraged by chasing time so that he can immediately return to the village to meet his little girl.
" Boss, there's a dinner invitation with the client at seven" Nicko said.
" I can't, Maghrib will have to leave soon. Cancel it, we're not coming" Rifky said.
" Where exactly is Boss? Almost every day the great mistress comes looking."
" I have another job, Nick. Never mind, let no one know where I'm going."
" Is it because of a woman, the boss being like this?"
" You're right, Nick. She was a girl in the past that I could not forget until now. Dozens of years did not meet, in fact the feelings of affection that used to be limited to sister brother now turned into love."
" You still know him even though you haven't seen him in a long time?"
Nicko had forgotten who he was talking to now. Usually he is very protective of ethics in front of his superiors even though outside they are friendly.
" No, I went to his house and met him. She's changed now, I have to give my little girl back to what she used to be."
" Is she pretty?"
" Of course, you can see for yourself."
Rifky opened the gallery on his phone and showed photos of them on the beach. Nicko did not blink to see the beautiful face of the girl who hugged Rifky from behind.
" Don't look at my girl like that!" hardik Rifkiy.
" Hehehee. sorry, boss. She's so pretty, if it doesn't belong to the boss I've been chasing."
" Let's watch out you dare to disturb my girl!"
" Where does he live, boss?"
" But promise don't tell my parents."
" Ready, boss!"
" He lived in the village where Om Jamal was. The house is next door, so we used to be together as kids."
" When - when to go there, boss? All refreshing let's not be in the city continue."
" Later on, there's still a lot of things I have to take care of there. Om Jamal's plantation is also in trouble, not to mention that my girl is now the ruler of the market and the streets. The more chaotic his life becomes the boss of the market thugs."
" Whataa...? Market thugs?" peekik Nicko did not believe.
" Hhh, how else, since his mother died his nature changed drastically. Even her relationship with her father was tenuous at this time."
" Woww... So the story of the boss chasing after a brutal girl's love?" Nicko could not help his surprise.
" Husse...! My girl isn't brutal, she's just khillaf." Rifky said.
" Ish.. looks so bucin as well as a little girl." ledek Nicko.
The clock is five o'clock in the afternoon. Rifky rushes out of his office on a sport bike that will take him to the village where Medina lives. Previously he had told his secretary to empty all meeting schedules for tomorrow so that he could rest in the village.

At eight in the evening, Rifky arrived at Jamal's house. After cleaning himself up, he rushed towards Medina's house before the girl went to sleep.
" Assalamu'alaikum" said Rifky on the porch.
" Wa'alaikumsalam's. Uh, Rifky boy? Come on in, Medina's still watching tv inside."
" Yes, uncle. Rifky really wants to meet Medina."
Rifky followed Mr. Hasan's steps towards where Dina was relaxing. The girl did not realize that Rifky was already sitting next to her.
" What's playing, Din?" Rifky snatched the phone from Medina's hand.
" Aakkhhh...! Brother, turn my phone!" peekik Medina's.
" Kirain watch tv, you guys come out for a second yuk?"
" Why what?"
" Sister is hungry" whispered Rifky.
" Dina made fried rice, huh? Lazy out night - night, cold."
" Ok, thank you."
While waiting for Medina to cook the fried rice, Rifky chatted with Mr. Hasan. They look very familiar even though the age is adrift quite far.
" Sister, do you want to be taken there or eat here?" yelled Medina from the kitchen.
Rifky and Hasan were shocked by Medina's screams. That girl was really brutal, no ethics at all.
" Athaghfirullah.. Sorry, Rif? Medina is hard to manage" said Mr. Hasan.
" It's okay, uncle. Later let Rifky who advised Medina, do not think too much" said Rifky.
" Dear, don't scream - scream like that. Not polite, especially in front of parents." said Rifky.
" Hehehee. sorry," said Medina with a grin.
" Next time don't be so again, the girl is soft and graceful" Rifky said.
" Yes, it won't be repeated if you don't forget."
" Here...!" tell Rifky while pulling Medina's body closer to him.
" Backk...! There's a father in front" said Medina.
" Sister misses you, Calis. Is there a problem today at school?"
" No, everything's fine. Yeah, sister ate the fried rice cold first."
" Thank you, Calis is my sister's favorite."
Rifky devoured Medina's delicious fried rice. It only took five minutes, the fried rice was gone.
" Dear, your cooking is delicious." praised Rifky.
" Nothing is free." said Medina.
" sthat mean? You have to pay for this food?"
" Yes, wait a minute."
Medina went inside her room while Rifky washed the dishes of her former meal. Not long after, Medina walked out of the room with the book in her hand.
" Dear, why bring a book?" ask Rifky wonder.
" Come ahead of my handsome sister," Medina smiled mischievously while holding Rifky's arm.
" My little girl's done what the hell? Spoiled tumben like this, baby?"
" What the hell? Just ordinary."
Mr. Hasan had already entered the room when Rifky was eating in the kitchen. Medina immediately told Rifky to sit down and give her a textbook.
" What's a textbook for, Calis?" Rifky was astonished by the behavior of his little girl.
" Sister help Dina with PR, huh?" medina Whine.
" Baby boy, it never changed" Rifky said.
Rifky opened Medina's Maths book and read the material for a while. Fortunately, his brain is so smart that it is very easy to do. While writing the answers, they tell each other about the past.
" Dina remembers the time she left school when she was carried with her sister when she fell. Brother's face is different from when I was a child." Medina chanted.
" why? Now more handsome huh?" god Rifkys.
" Ish. Where there is, better-looking childhood. Now Medina is scared close - close to sister."
" why? What's sister's face scary?"
" Not that, but _..."
" But what, baby?"
" It's okay, thank you, my sister was always nice with Medina. Brother always protects Medina and dear Medina."
Rifky stopped the movement of his hand on the paper and stared fixedly at the pretty eyes of the girl without blinking.
" Medina, from the past until now.Sister always love you and forever will never change. If you remember when we were kids, you promised to keep and protect you forever" Rifky said.
" Dina forgot, but there's one place Dina remembers that we often visit."
" It must be the lake on the edge of the village, huh? I forgot to take you there again."
" There's no place, brother."
" Nothing? What do you mean, baby?"
" The place was already flat with the ground being used as shophouses and other buildings."
" It's a pity, when it's our memory of playing." lamented Rifky.
Rifky recalled the moment he said goodbye to the little Medina in the lake. The little girl cried not to part with him. Her tiny hand continued to grip her tightly without even taking her off. By late afternoon, little Rifky held the girl who did not stop roaring on her back to sleep until she got home.
