The beginning of the month the supermarket is more crowded than usual, Since starting to work until before the break he continues to work non-stop. It was his turn to rest that Ratna chose to fill her energy with a bowl of spicy baso and a glass of juice as a freshener.


"Na slide dong" said one of his friends named Ica.


"Tumben you ate yourself, which Irma?" ask while sitting.


"On holiday today"


"Oh yes, tomorrow it's your turn to take off again.


Ratna nodded as her mouth was full of food.


"Law.... Na, I'm off tomorrow too. You want me to walk?"


"Where?"


"Um"


"Who's the guy?"


"Cowok... "


"Where do you know him from?"


"From the matchmaking app." replied Ica slowly.


"Huh? please Ca! today you still believe in the same application, the danger Ca! don't be a fraud again" hardiknya.


"Come! we did videocall and the guy did it. He will also invite his friends so you will not be alone, besides you do not sprain what? every Sunday night at the mulu taunts for not having a boyfriend!"


"Bodoamat! the dating is also not necessarily happy"


"Yeah Na, please dong... I pay you two hundred thousand or not?"


"Where's the money?" ratna asked as she extended a hand.


Hhhhhhhhhhh


"Basic matre! nih!" said Ica while handing over the money.


"Okay, I'll just call about the clock and the place of the appointment" said Ratna who then focused back on the food.


The next day Ratna was given a room if they would meet at three in the afternoon, for her own place was a mall close to her boarding house.


He glanced at the clock, there was still about two hours before the appointment time. Ratna decided to relax while watching television even though there was no exciting event, when the time showed at 14:00 he began to prepare.


For a girl even though she is not interested in the meeting but she still has to look beautiful and neat, and to look perfect of course she takes at least an hour including a shower.


"Ah.. gosh..I don't have any clothes" she said as she looked at the closet.


Of course, the point is that clothes are suitable for dating because in the closet only contain formal and casual clothes.


"Alright, we try this one" he said, taking one outfit.


Fifteen minutes he spent just to choose a suitable outfit, after which he put on his makeup. Just thin makeup but enough to make it beautiful, the last touch is perfume on the clothes.


Ica called him just as he was ready, and immediately he hurried away. At the entrance of the mall Ica waved her hand to see the arrival, she smiled and praised Ratna's appearance which always looks beautiful.


"Your introduction hasn't come yet?" ask Ratna.


"Before a minute, be patient, "Ica replied.


"Oh, that's them!" Ica said as she saw two men walking towards them.


Ica seemed happy because her acquaintance looked cool with the leather jacket she was wearing, while Ratna could only be silent looking at a man whose face was not foreign.


"Are we late?" said the man.


"No, we also just came" Ica replied smiling shyly.


"Good, oh introduce this my friend's name... "


"Jaya" Ratna said, leaving the man silent.


"You... Why do you know his name?"


"Because she's my ex-boyfriend" Jaya replied, unable to take her eyes off Ratna.


As the two people were shocked, they could only stare in disbelief at Ratna and Jaya who were still looking at each other.


"Hmm how are you? long time no see" asked Ratna.


"Good news, we haven't seen each other for a long time"


"This is my friend Ica" Ratna said.


Jaya reached out and was welcomed by Ica, as well as Ratna who was acquainted with Dimas Jaya's friend. They choose to go to the nearest cafe to chat, some of the chat will contain the story of the past between Jaya and Ratna.


"What about your college?" ask Ratna.


"You kidding? now I'm a lawyer" Jaya replied.


"really? don't tell me this is just a ploy for me to come back to you"


"Why do you think that?"


"You know who I am, don't you?" ask Ratna.


Jaya just shook her head with a smile, she was very familiar with Ratna and knew she would never change.


"Ah.. turned out this world is small, I did not expect you guys used to be ex-girlfriends" said Ica.


"It was a long time ago, remember it was just monkey love" Ratna replied.


Hahaha


They laughed together and continued the casual chat until nightfall, they separated but Ratna had exchanged numbers with Jaya so they could continue communication via mobile phone.


Just now Ratna was done cleaning and getting ready for bed but Jaya called her, she picked up the phone immediately.


"Hello"


"Hi, are you asleep?" ask Jaya.


"I was just planning on doing it"


"It's only nine o'clock, do you usually sleep fast?"


"Hmm, tomorrow I work early so I have to sleep fast so as not to oversleep"


"Oh... So apparently, um..... when are you off work?"


"Next week, why?"


"No, I think Sunday tomorrow we can meet"


Haha


"We just met this afternoon and you miss me?" taste Ratna.


"Hehe. I. there are no activities, so I think I can spend time with you"


"Um... okay, I can ask to exchange with my friend"


"really? can we meet at eight in the morning? I'll pick you up"


"All right, see you later" Ratna hung up.


He laid his body on the bed, recalling the figure of Jaya he had just met. Since graduating High School they separated and this is the first time they met again, not in the thought of a long time apart now Jaya became a figure of a more handsome and cool man.


From the way he spoke and acted completely opposite of the figure of Jaya in the past, Ratna admitted Jaya was more mature and even authoritative.


Arriving on Sunday morning, Ratna was neat and looked beautiful, according to Jaya's promise to pick her up.


"Wear this" Jaya said as she handed over the helmet.


"We're going to Bandung, my friend recommended a good place"


"Good bike?" ratna asked because she imagined a long journey.


"Of course, I guarantee the trip will be a lot of fun"


"Alright" replied Ratna who was curious.


He immediately put on his helmet and got on the bike, after they were ready to leave. The wind blows quite fast because Jaya is speeding up quite fast, but Ratna is starting to enjoy it.


He felt free among the gusts of wind, it felt that various negative energies were left far behind and left an absolute peace. Two hours without feeling now they are half way, Jaya decided to stop for a break and enjoy the beautiful scenery on the side of the road.


"Isn't this beautiful?" ask Jaya.


"Yes, it feels like all my burdens are gone instantly" replied Ratna.


"Is your waist okay?"


"A little sore but I'm good"


Hahaha


"Is this your first time traveling long distances on a motorcycle?" ask Jaya.


"Of course, my furthest trip was back home and I took the bus"


"So apparently, how's your gangmate doing?"


"According to the assumption that the Master continued the business of his parents, as far as I know Ardi is now working as a technician while Amus I do not know for sure but last met at that time he was still in college"


"Why aren't you sure about your friends? aren't you gangs?"


"We were just childhood friends who were together until High School, after graduation we chose a different and busy road with our own world so how could I know for sure"


"Truely, in the end you split up too" said Jaya.


They continued the journey back, apparently this is not the first time Jaya to Bandung so he there are several places that they passed in know by him. While driving they chatted about the places, with a lot of cheerful Ratna asked and responded to it.


Until they arrive at the destination, it is a tourist spot that is quite crowded on weekends. After parking the motorcycle Jaya told him to wait while she bought a ticket.


"This is yours" Jaya said, handing over her ticket.


Ratna received the ticket and they entered, the beautiful scenery of the hills so spoil her eyes that were tired of urban conditions. He saw many rides that he could ride such as bicycles, hot air balloons and others.


"There's a ride you want to ride?" ask Jaya.


"Of course, everything is at a height" Ratna replied hesitantly.


"What about the swing? I don't think it's too high and you can hold on" Jaya bargained.


But Ratna still did not give an answer, from her face Jaya knew Ratna was quite worried.


"I'll ride with you, you can hold my hand later" said Jaya softly.


Ratna was still weighing a little but finally she wanted to too, even before riding the swing Jaya had held Ratna's hand so that she felt better. Ratna's heart began to beat rapidly as she sat on the swing board, even though the officer tied her to a safety rope she was still nervous.


Jaya gently stroked Ratna's hand so that her attention was diverted when the officer shifted the swing, when it dawned on Ratna already above a deep enough abyss.


"Look at me!" said Jaya.


"Mm." said Ratna, who could not turn her face from below.


"Ratna look at me! don't look down!" jaya orders in a louder voice.


"Mmm, o.. to. " replied Ratna slowly turning her face away.


As Ratna began to look at Jaya she saw a sincere smile, then slowly Jaya stroked her hair gently until she was afraid again. In the end after a few minutes that felt long he began to be able to enjoy the rides.


"Huuuuhhhhhh that was quite surprising" Ratna said after he they went down.


"Daddy, a fierce girl like you turns out to be afraid of heights" said Jaya.


"This has nothing to do with it" said Ratna.


"Here you go, how about we get something to eat first? I'm getting hungry" Jaya asked.


Ratna agreed because she also needed energy intake to get excited again, they went into one of the existing restaurants and immediately ordered.


Ddddrrrrttt Ddddrrrrttt


Ratna looked at her vibrating phone with Irma writing on the screen, after sliding the green button she said.


"Yes Ir!"


"Where are you?"


"Well, why?"


"Where's outside? said you wanted to see my girlfriend, we're leaving right now"


"Gosh, I forgot Ir if we have a promise" Ratna said, patting her head.


"Daddy... Where are you? let's get samperin"


"Far Ir, I'm in Bandung"


"Hand? why?" ask Irma curiously.


"She.. ngedate!" ratna replied while looking at Jaya who was busy with her phone.


"Huh? in seriously? same who?"


"Later to tell me, now if you want to go please. You can meet your boyfriend next time"


"Yes, happy fun yes"." said Irma who immediately hung up the phone.


"Who's Na?" tanya Jaya was curious.


"Work management, I forgot that there's an appointment today"


"Well..so how? I'm not good with your friend"


"It's okay, maybe next time" he replied.


Jaya nodded and did not ask any more, as their order arrived impatiently Ratna immediately enjoyed the meal while chatting casually. After the stomach is full and the energy is back they continue the journey in that place with selfie ria, capturing moments that will not necessarily be repeated again.


Tired of walking around they decided to sit on a chair while enjoying a very beautiful view.


"It feels so lazy to go home, the scenery here is so beautiful that it makes my heart peaceful" said Ratna.


"Working in the supermarket is hard, right?" ask Jaya.


"Not really, but other than in the supermarket I also work in the salon because it feels tiring"


"What's? why are you taking two jobs at once? is the salary in the supermarket not enough to meet your needs?" tanya Jaya wonders.


"Quite, it's just that I want to get rich quick that's why I took two jobs"


"Jeez. You're just torturing your own body"


"I know, for me there are only two options if you want to get rich quick. First marry rich grandfather and secondly work hard, I don't want to marry grandfather so I choose to work hard"


"What about a selfish lawyer?" tanya Jaya who made Ratna speechless.


"What do you mean?" tanyanya slow.


"I hate to say it because I feel like my pride is going down, but I'm back to being captivated by your beauty even though I know your nature is very bad and will never change" she replied.


Ratna was still speechless, interpreting the sentence Jaya spoke.


"I love you, I want to have you back, I want a relationship that is more than just a friend. This time I'll learn to respect your wishes more, I'll learn to hold back when jealous because you're closer to another man even if it's your childhood friend. Because I really love you" Jaya said again.
