"Gue's going to sleep, tomorrow you have to go home!" ticia said as soon as she realized that she had hugged Varen.

"Lo's home too?" tanya Varen held Ticia's hand.

"Gue's coming home on Saturday" he replied.

"I'll go home on Saturday too."

"Ntar lo sought papa equally mama lo!"

"Let's go," Varen still kekeh did not want to go home. He'll only come home if Ticia comes home.

"As far as you!" ticia said and then pulled her hand. He walked quickly to his room. His face was red with embarrassment.

Varen did not enter the house. He sat back on the porch alone. Just this time he was outside the house, in addition to his hotel. Especially in the countryside like this. For the first time he did not feel any anxiety.

Although a little unfamiliar. But for the sake of being close to the woman of his tribe. Varen is trying to adjust.

"Va, haven't slept?" ask Ticia's father who woke up thirsty. As he was about to go to the kitchen, he saw a shadow in front of the house. Curious, Daniel opened the door. He found Varen sitting alone on the porch of his house.

"Not sleepy yet, this afternoon had time to sleep anyway." replied Varen with a smile.

"Why? Not living in the village?" ask Ticia's father, then he sits next to Varen.

"Well, yeah, even if you're not used to it."

"Aren't you looking for your papa?"

"Who has time for me, Dad."

Looking at Varen who was bowing her head sadly. Makes Ticia's father smile. He knows the lives of the rich. He also felt lucky. Although it could not give his daughter such abundant treasure. At least he and his wife can give more attention to his daughter.

"All parents want to make their children happy, I'm sure, your father is the same. Maybe right now he's working hard for your future" Ticia's father said.

"Maybe yeah, too,"

"Dad listen, papa you built a new hotel, and gave it to you?"

Varen smiled slightly and nodded her head. "Since entering Junior High School, Varen has been taught how to manage hotels. And now, even though Varen is still in school, Varen is ready to manage the hotel. Doain Varen yes well, so that Varen can compete with other business people in the field of hospitality!" varen asked Ticia's father for a prayer of blessing.

"Dad Seneng look at a young man as passionate as you. Dad doain all your business runs smoothly, success in the future." Ticia's father flattered Varen's spirit. This time he saw a young man. Even very young. But have a far-sighted mind to do business. Of course, all of that is also supported by strong financial from his father, as a hotel entrepreneur who is quite famous.

"But inget, do not laugh, all that is just a deposit. Stay humble!" a message from Ticia's father.

"Thank you!" ticia's father grabbed Varen and patted Varen's shoulder slowly.

When I embrace Varen. Suddenly Ticia's father was sad. He remembered his eldest son who had died. He was about the same age as Varen. His spirit is the same as Varen.

"Go back to the room first! You sleep fast too!" ticia's father tried hard to hide his sadness. He had promised himself that he would no longer be saddened by the passing of his son.

But, it turns out that Ticia's father came to the room that Ticia used. He asks his daughter to accompany Varen who daydreams alone in front of the house.

Ticia had to come back. He tries to avoid Varen for fear of baper again. But his father instead asked him to accompany Varen. With a grumble Ticia finally came out again. Despite the grumbling, Ticia did not dare to refute her father's orders.

"Sir Vava why haven't you come in yet?" tanyanya while yawning.

Heard Ticia's distinctive voice. Varen turned and smiled to see Ticia come out again. "Not drowsy yank." replied Varen.

"Sleep first if you're sleepy!" varen said as he looked at Ticia who was constantly yawning.

"So, why don't you just accept your matchmaking with Rose?" ask Ticia.

"Gue doesn't love her. I'm only going to marry the woman I love."

"But we have different beliefs, we can't get married."

"What did I say you wanted to marry me?" ask Varen with a smile. He meant to tease Ticia.

"So she said the woman you love" Ticia said with a slight annoyance.

"What do I love?" Varen is back to teasing Ticia. And the question of Varen. Makes Ticia round her eyes. She felt so embarrassed. Because already with his pede said if they could not possibly get married.

"Oh yeah I forgot, I'm not a nobody lo." said Ticia with a slight frown.

Seeing Ticia's pouting face. Makes Varen become broken. Varen then pulls Ticia into his arms. "Gue was just kidding. You know my love is only for you" he said.

Suddenly blush Ticia's face. He tried to escape from Varen's embrace. But Varen hugged him even tighter, and made him unable to move.

"Sick brother Vava!" lamented Ticia tried harder to release Varen's embrace. However, his strength is not enough to fight the power of Varen.

"Say first Brother Vava handsome." tell Varen still not to let go of his embrace.

"Ish, narcissist. Not willing." Varen's request was rejected outright by Ticia.

"Say if you like me hugged me like this." Varen's confidence level rose one hundred percent.

"Sir Vava is handsome." said Ticia with a forced smile.

"Well..." Ticia breathed a sigh of relief after Varen let go of her embrace.

"Our sister has broken up, so I hope you're happy forever with Rose! You fit in,"

"Gue will only marry the woman I love." Varen stared intently at Ticia. Makes Ticia a misbehavior.

"But that's impossible" Ticia said, bowing her head. He did not dare to look into Varen's sharp eyes.

"Don't talk about marriage! Let's go through what's in front of us now!"

"But the more we step over that bridge, the more we will get sick when we realize that the bridge is not able to cross" Ticia said sadly.

"We can make that difference side by side, when we can't put those differences together! We can be friends, we can support each other, we can pray for each other." Ticia continued.

"No!" varen said firmly.

"Gue wants your love, I don't want to be friends with you. Because I don't want to, you belong to another man. It belongs to me, only mine. I love you." Varen hugged Ticia tightly again.

Destiny brought them together. And destiny has also placed love in their hearts. They are two people who love each other. But the distance between the mosque and the church, feels so very far to them.

Not just far away. But will never be able to meet and align.

Ticia did not know why that love was present in her heart. A love that never ends. Why did she fall in love with a man who had different beliefs with her. Why he had to face such a difficult choice. Between love for his God. Or love for his beloved.
