After Thoriq died, Aulia no longer held back her crying, therefore she then embraced the picture frame given by her best friend. Back when Thoriq was still by his side, he was always happy. But everything is really not as it used to be, now Aulia has no close friends anymore.
At school, Aulia is bullied by her classmates. Not only that, he was always ostracized, but once everything was not like that. Aulia never got bullied because Thoriq always kept her from people who would hurt her.
As time went on, Aulia tried to comfort herself, trying to be sure that she could be together again with her best friend. Aulia always remembered with the words of Thoriq that 'strong friendship does not need daily conversation or togetherness at all times, as long as the friendship is in the heart, true friends will never be apart'.
As long as Thoriq was not by her side, just the photo frame given by her best friend made Aulia feel a little less alone.
Day after day, month after month he had passed and did not feel Aulia was already sitting in the 5th grade and the class holidays had arrived. That was the moment he had been waiting for.
Thoriq must have come to see me, thought Aulia.
He was really looking forward to meeting Thoriq again.

One day ....
That afternoon, Aulia saw a car parked in front of Thoriq's house. He saw his best friend's father get out of the car and without a second thought he came to him.
"Om Riki?" greet Aulia while smiling kindly.
"Gee, Aulia!" reply Om Riki while smiling widely.
Aulia smiled again, her beautiful eyes staring into Om Riki's car, but there was no sign of the person she was looking for there. In fact, he also circulated his gaze into Thoriq's house, but nil!
"Om, Thoriq's not coming?" tanya Aulia then sat down near her best friend's father.
"Oh that, Thoriq again went to the camp. Actually he wanted to come here, but he collided with that camp!" obviously Om Riki while looking at Aulia with pity.
"Oh yeah, Om!" reply Aulia with a face that looks moody.
"Good, Om. So as long as Thoriq's there, how's he doing?" ask Aulia.
"It's fine, but Thoriq often daydreams, he also always said he was very lonely! He wants to be with you again, but this is how we always don't have time to come here!" obviously Om Riki with an unbearable tone.
"No papa, Om, send my greetings to Thoriq too, yes!" timpal Aulia smiled broadly.
"Well, Om is also not long here, soon after dawn Om back to Bondowoso!"
"Hurry up, Om!"
"Yes, how else, there is still a camp there, Om also want to take care of Om's students!"
Aulia just nodded softly at the words of her best friend's father.

The dawn ....
Aulia saw from the window of her house, Om Riki was getting ready. He also approached her directly.
"Om leaving already?" greet Aulia.
"Yes, son," he answered while arranging his belongings in the car.
"Don't forget to give my regards to Thoriq, om!"
"Okay, ready! Um leave first, all right here, yeah!" om Riki stroked Aulia's head.
After shaking hands with Aulia, Om Riki left. Behind her beautiful face, Aulia seemed to miss the presence of Thoriq by her side.But it seems that God has not tempted them to meet.
