Daytime.
El says goodbye to a friend who changes shifts. This afternoon the sun was so hot, he walked towards the stop waiting for a bus that would take him to campus. Not waiting for long, the bus he was waiting for finally arrived as well. He got on the bus after the bus stopped. El sat by the window, looking at the towering buildings.
How do I delete that video from Edwan's phone?. Can I do it myself?. Does he always hide his phone in his pocket?. Then how is it possible, I can?thought El hard. He took the phone in his pocket and opened a gallery showing Sam. Sam, why is it that every time I'm alone, I always remember you?. Am I not worthy to see you anymore?. I would like to ask your mother or brother about you?. But I don't dare?. I'm afraid everyone will misunderstand me, I don't want that?. I'm always on the wrong side, Sam?. Sam, I've met Sister Saga!. He also studied here. He's graduating again. The world is narrow, isn't it, Sam?. But your heart is also narrow to me! inner El.
Trings... Trings... Trings...
A call in. El immediately shifted the green button. "Dear Assalamualaikum!", greet El with pleasure.
"Walaikumsalam love!", replied Sella. "What are you?", asked Sella across the street.
"Again on the bus. Go to college. Tumben hasn't slept?", asked El.
"There is still a lot of work, baby!. It's hard to be an only child!", cried Sella.
"Either find a new sister, so that you can help finish your treasure!", said El who had laughed.
"Have a son!", replied Sella sewot.
"Cell, you know, if Saga has been here all this time?" said El.
"Seriously loe!", asked Sella in a voice so loud.
"Seriously!. I met him just now. Not surprisingly, if we are a campus!", replied El.
Sella smiled thinly. "Truly this world is narrow!. What's up with Sam?", asked Sella curiously.
"Nil. I haven't seen him!. Even he missed the dinner last night!", replied El.
"Fix, he really hates you!" said Sella. "Instead, he doesn't want to see you?" he continued.
"Maybe's. Yes, I went to college first!. It has arrived. Assalamualaikum?", El's pamit turned off his phone without waiting for Sella's approval.
"Goddessalam!. In matiin anyway!. I haven't told you yet, if I have a meeting in London!", said Sella, who was upset to see El turning off her phone.

El is already in her class. He immediately followed the subjects to be taught by lecturer Mr. Robert. He sat down next to Jo, as only the seat was left empty for him.
"Later tonight don't forget?", asked Jo whispered.
El who was focused on paying attention to Mr. Robert replied by shaking his head.
"Geez El, there's a seminar tonight. Cook you forgot?" said Jo.
Deg. He looked directly at Jo. Seminar, make a pact, tonight! inner El's raging.
"I'm sure, you must have forgotten!", said Jo who could already read El's mind.
"Where is this?. I have a deal!", said El whispering.
"Guanty!", asked Jo again. "Who's same?".
"Old friend. I accidentally met him. It turned out that he was also attending a lecture here!", El explained.
"Who?".
"Sak Saga!", replied El.
"Sir Saga, it seems that the name is not so foreign to me!", said Jo who was thinking about the name Saga. "Oh.iya, I remember, he's the head of the basketball team!. How do you know?", asked Jo who had remembered him.
"We know accidentally. He's my best friend's enemy!", replied El.
"Enemy?. How are you even friends with him?. Doesn't that friend have to support each other, why do you even win with him?" said Jo who was dizzy.
"Indeed, should yes, if we hate someone, our best friend should also hate someone?".
"Not really!", replied Jo innocently.
"Keep, what reason do we hate him!", replied El.
"Udah. Don't talk!", whispered William sitting behind them.
Finally they focused on watching Mr. Robert who was teaching up ahead.
***
Finally, the course given by Mr. Robert has ended. The lecturer immediately left his class.
"El..?", call William.
"Hmmmm!", replied El while putting the book inside
"I have a friend, do you want to know him?" asked William.
El stopped the activity of inserting into the book, after hearing the words of William.
"Don't want El, William's friend to be a jerk!", said Jo who heard William's words.
"Damn you Jo!", William did not accept.
"El doesn't want to either, because he already has that?" said Jo, who spoke sensibly.
El who heard that instantly silenced Jo's mouth with his hand.
William who saw their behavior became upset himself.
"Don't just talk to Jo!", whispered El close to Jo's ear.
Jo understood and nodded. Because he had promised El, if he would not divulge about his engagement to Kak Edwan.
El smiles and releases his hand that silences Jo's mouth. "I'm sorry Will, I can't!. You know for yourself, how busy I am going to college while working!", declined El refined.
"Sometimes many people just look at the case, but do not think about the contents!", said Jo.
"You better shut up, Jo!. No need to interfere!", snapped William was upset to see the behavior of Jo who always meddled in his affairs with El.
"I didn't interfere!. I'm just taking the facts!", tease Jo.
"Already, don't fight!. I walk first, right?. Bye...!", El's camel ran out. He called Adele because he wanted to ask for Saga's phone number. After connecting with El immediately asked Adele to send Saga's phone number.
Dret... Dret...
A message came in from Adele, she sent Saga's phone number.
El immediately called the number.
Tut's... Tut's... Tut's...
"Hallo?", said Saga.
"Sak Saga huh?" asked El.
"El!", replied Saga in shock. "What's the matter?", asked Saga in surprise, he did not expect that El had contacted him first.
"Sister, sorry for tonight, I can't sister!. I forgot there's a seminar tonight?. Excuse me, brother?", said El who was not pleased, because he promised, he who denied it.
The one in the other laughed out loud at the chant of El who felt bad.
"Kok even laughed, Sis, I'm serious Sis?", that El who did not accept the ridicule from Kak Saga.
"If I were beside you right now, you would have me messing with your hair?", teased Saga with a laugh.
El who heard that automatically held her hair. "From then until now, Brother never changed?", El said with a smile.
"What does it mean to turn into, so Doraemon who has a magic bag, so a power ranger that can be a super hero!", tegoda Kak Saga.
El laughed out loud at the rant from Saga. "Just be yourself, brother, that's enough!", said El.
Saga smiled sweetly at El's words, he felt happy because the person he had loved first, left, was now in the same place and in the same country. He did not think that destiny was on his own.

Nightfall.
All guests are seated in the space provided. El and his friends sat in groups so they could whisper about the mentor who would appear later.
The Lecturers, Deans, Rectors and interested staff were already in their place. The event was welcomed by the committee chairman.
"I can't wait to see his mentor!" said Adele, who was sitting next to El.
El who was holding his phone smiled to himself because he was replying to a message with Saga.
"When you call me, the number's on the block?".
Brother Saga.
"What would you like, if my brother's number was blocked again?".
El.
"Don't dong!".
"I didn't think we'd see you again, El!".
Brother Saga.
"😁😁😁".
El.
Suddenly someone passes in front of El and makes El's phone fall.
"I'm sorry... Sorry, not intentionally!", said someone apologizing who immediately looked for an empty seat.
"Sir, if you see me using my eyes!", said Jo who was angry to see someone walking at will.
"It's okay, Jo!", replied El.
"Let's welcome a mentor who is very young, handsome, charismatic and.!", said the host lady.
El bends down looking for his phone that fell. He looked here and there. "Where's my phone!", whispered El annoyed.
"A very successful entrepreneur. Here's the diaaaa...!", continued the host.
"That's it!", said El who managed to find his phone and reached out with both hands.
"This is diaaaa..... Samuel Praja Natawijaya!", call the host and all the invited guests applauded very loudly.
Deg. El could still clearly hear the name called by the host, he called the name he had longed for so far. Sam ! the shocked Inner El half-dead saw Sam standing on the pulpit provided by the committee.
The sound of applause and boisterous still resounded in the hall room of this campus. Everyone praised and adored the success achieved by the young people who were standing there.
Sam stood gallantly and mighty on the pulpit. His smile did not go unnoticed by the invited guests. Praise the good looks and charismatics that come out of him.
El who sits in the guest ranks sees Sam very differently than three years ago. Now, Sam has become someone who is despised by the women. In the past at school, he was always reluctant and became the wrestler of the beautiful girls of one school. What's more now, it's as if the world stopped seeing people who flattered her and respected her more than anything.
Adele and Jenifer beside her screamed hysterically at the mentor's good looks while standing up.
El saw his companions as if possessed by something. If only you knew, he was the person I had longed for, surely you would faint!. And you guys will definitely not believe me! inner El while looking at Adele and Jenifer who are still screaming.
