Why did you go home first?
Reza read the message he typed and just sent it to Raya. His body rests on a sofa he sits on.
His view is now busy with watching many cabin crew who are waiting for the time for their flight schedule. Just like Reza, who today will fly to Makassar.
Reza's phone shook, a reply from Raya. His smile appeared, his hand immediately touching the notification of the message that was waiting to be touched.
Sorry, I was sleepy yesterday. Oh yeah, you know Sie's house?
Reza's fingers were anxious to reply to the woman's message. Busy thinking of a reply for Raya, making Reza unaware that there was someone sitting next to her.
Tau, why?
“Reply message should be with a smile, Za?” said someone who shocked Reza. Reza's face turned red and began to smile misbehaviorally. “Whose message reply anyway? Your girlfriend?” ask Captain Riko who will fly with him today.
“Engga, Capt. Just the same friends.” Reply Reza who still looks shy because of being teased by Captain Riko.
“Za, your beautiful friend is really dating the boss?” ask Captain Riko who is now busy playing his phone.
Reza frowned, which “friends, capt?” reza asked, he did not know which friend Captain Riko meant.
“It, si Raya. Mba flight attendant who once gotosipin close to you. It turns out that the same Raya Mr. Daren is dating, I think the same you.”ucap Captain Riko who returned to play his phone. Reza was silent for a moment, trying to digest Captain Riko's words.
“Daren's dating style, capt?” ask Reza to make sure.
“You don't know yet? Though the news they want to get married has spread, until everyone talks about it.” Captain Riko saw the clock on his cell phone, now it's time for a briefing before their flight to Makassar.
“Capt, Really want to get married?” ask Reza who is like a man who fails to focus. Questioning what he should have asked himself.
“Try you ask Raya, who knows she forgot to tell you.” Said Captain Riko before leaving Reza who was still busy with his thoughts.

Flashbacks
The sky was getting cloudy, signs of rain were falling. Plus her watch already showed at five in the afternoon, it was time to go home for her. However, his hope of going home should he bear it.
Currently, no one is a motorcycle taxi driver in front of his school, maybe because it will soon rain. Raya doesn't know anything about it. In his mind, he only thought about how to quickly get home.
“Neng, don't go home?” ask a father who is the same age as in his fifties, Raya knows the father, he
a school guard.
“Not yet, Sir. There's no motorcycle." Said Raya who was still sitting on a chair in the guard post.
“If it's late afternoon, mamang ojeknya already behind neng. What's the matter with coming home so late afternoon?” while enjoying the black coffee that smells smelled, Mr. security guard was found Raya who was still waiting for ojek, he hoped.
“Neng, I went to school first huh. Be careful when you get home.” The father who had not known Raya left him, he entered a school that was getting darker. Looks like the father will check the state of the school, I don't know Raya.
From far away the Kingdom heard the sound of someone's motor, not knowing who. For a moment Raya thought, it was only Raya and her friends who were last at school. Whose motorcycle is it?
The sound of the motor was getting louder into his ears, yelling like hope. Whoever the owner is, Raya doesn't care. A figure appeared that made Kingdom curious in a few moments. The man, whom Raya did not recognize, was carrying his big noisy motorbike.
Drizzling down, Raya can smell the soil exposed to rainwater. It was calming, for a moment he forgot about the problem. The feeling of Raya is not good, sometimes he glances at the clouds that do not change color.
Raya can't go home.
On the motorbike there was still the man who was going to pass the guard post, Raya immediately got up and ran into the increasingly heavy rain. His hand he stretched out, the man who Raya did not know was his hope. So afraid, Raya closed her eyes and lowered her head, the point is today Raya must go home!
Nyiiiittt
The brake decitan also stopped the motor driven by the stranger. After venturing to open his eyes, Raya finally knew who the owner of the motorbike was. The full face helmet that was originally used, has now been released and made the man's head wet in the rain.
“Daren?” the man turned out to be his friend.
“Stupid, you're dead?” daren sarcasm.
“Kok you are not back?” tanya Raya who now stepped closer to being right next to the guy.
“Lo by yourself?” ask Daren back, without answering.
“Gue want to go back, but no ojek.” Speak honestly.
“Terus lo hadang cave so make numpang?” ask cynical Daren to the point.
Kingdom nods vigorously, “can you?”
“Gak.” Daren put his helmet back on. Kingdom holding both shoulders Daren, “resistant yes.”
Bodies Raya riding Daren motor slowly, “lo why?”
“Udah afternoon, we go home yuk.”
“Down.” Tell Daren who is not Raya to listen.
“Can't let a girl go home alone, Daren. Come anterin me to the base ojek.” Big pat on Daren's shoulder.
“Basic crazy chick.” Daren turns on his motorbike and starts running it out of his school, Citra Harapan High School.
