Hearing what Tari said, instantly her heart beat faster, accompanied by pain from the scratches that had injured her heart. Malik realized, he immediately released his hand from Tari's grasp and lowered his head. He felt unable to do this, unable to imagine Salma feeling the pain of being disappointed in him.
“Hey, what are you doing?” Said Tari half-whispering, resuscitating Malik should continue this as planned.
Realizing that his curiosity was going here, Malik again saw Dance. He tried to do his best, he looked at Tari with a smile so that Salma would believe that he had cheated on her.
Dance turned her back to Salma and Malik sat right in front of her. At this time, Salma did not realize that Dance was the woman who was with Malik. Now that Salma had not thought of that, she only felt that something was happening to her heart, even though she did not know exactly what she was feeling right now.
After admitting that the person he saw was Malik, Salma immediately turned her eyes away. He looked down while holding both of his hands.
Seeing her friend not doing and saying anything, made Nanda become more worried. There was clearly a look of confusion on Salma's face at this moment. He didn't seem disappointed, but he didn't look happy either. Nanda looked at Salma worriedly, she also felt confused what action was right for her to do to this friend.
After a moment of confusion, Salma ventured to see someone she had just seen. This time, his heart felt that it had been pierced by a dagger, a pain that initially only felt faint, was now truly felt. Salma covered her mouth with both hands.
Malik turned his gaze, at this moment he also saw Salma who was looking towards him.
Realizing that Malik was staring at each other with Salma, Tari immediately awakened Malik so that his co-worker was not weak and gave up. “OK, now act as bereng**k.” Dance half-whispered to Malik.
“Salma.” Said Nanda looking at Salma who seemed very disappointed to see Malik. It was obvious his disappointment at having been betrayed by someone he really loved.
“Sorry.” Salma. He's headed for the cafe exit.
Seeing Salma out of the cafe, Malik also moved, he wanted to chase after Salma.
“What do you do?” Said Tari who wanted to stop Malik, he was afraid that what they had planned would end up failing.
“I want to outsmart him here.” Malik continues his pursuit of Salma.
Seeing Malik go after Salma, Nanda also chose to follow Malik's steps. He sped his way out of the cafe.

~Tadi afternoon
Gani is still in his hometown. He was walking on the side of the village road looking and greeting the people he met.
Now Gani is on the side of the road in front of the usual post of young people gathered here. But such a scene is very rare, young people now spend more time for school, work, or meeting in a cafe or place to eat. Fellow young people in this village have not spent much time together because they hang out more with school friends or coworkers who are not residents of this village.
Gani stopped, he immediately headed for the post and chose to sit there.
Gani took a breath and exhaled slowly. It's been about two years since he left the village to go to college, compared to the situation before he left this village, many have looked different. Not only is the village road more comfortable to pass because of improvements from the government, but also the environmental conditions and also the community. In the afternoon like this he saw a lot of children passing by playing together. Now, even though such a thing could still be met, it was not as much as it used to be. Only a few children play outside the home.
Gani sits and greets the people who see him. Although it has changed a lot, but the hospitality of the people here is still the same. Culture greet each other and smile is still thick for the people in this village.
While in this post, Gani can see the front of Malik's house. Gani slightly smiled his smile considering that he had waited for Sarah here. “I've been so.” Gani muttered while looking down.
Sarah just came on her bike. Gani keeps watching Sarah from a distance. “Her cup he still works.” Thought Gani, then reached into her pants pocket to pick up the phone. He was quite free today, Gani chose not to go home immediately and play his phone here.
After a while playing the phone while leaning his head against the post wall, Gani is shocked by someone calling her.
“Gani.” Sarah said when she realized Gani was in front of her at this time.
“Hei Sarah” Gani justifies her position.
“Sorry, why are you here? Isn't it not semester break yet?” Ask Sarah.
“Iya, I just want to go home, Monday morning or tomorrow night I'll be back hehe.” Answer Gani.
Sarah turned around and wanted to continue her steps.
“Oiya, are you in a hurry?” Ask Gani who immediately stopped Sarah's steps.
“Why?” Sarah asked after turning back to face Gani.
“What is Malik's brother at home?” Gani.
“Now no.” Answer Sarah.
Gani suddenly remembered something and wanted to see if Salma had really met Malik every week as he and his parents thought.
“Oh.”
“What has your sister been home lately?” Ask Gani back.
“Iya, why ask?” Sarah said, her curiosity appeared to hear Gani who was so eager to know something about her brother.
“I think our sister is back again.” Gani.
“Back again? You mean?”
Although Sarah actually understood what Gani said, but she chose as if she did not understand.
“Sister Malik seems to be coming home because of my brother.” Gani looks at Sarah.
“What do you think? Do you think so too?” Further.
Sarah nodded.
Gani smiled, she felt happy her guess all along was right. From the beginning Gani did support her brother and Malik's relationship, she felt relieved if Salma came back to fight for her love.
“I'm glad they're back together.” Gani.
Sarah looked at Gani with an excited look.
“How about you?” Gani.
Sarah shook. He looked down at what he heard last week when Malik asked his mother for her blessing. He heard very well that this time his mother would be the barrier Malik back with Salma.
“What's up?” Gani asked to see Sarah who seemed unhappy.
“They can't be together.” Said Sarah.
“Why? They are a suitable couple, equally smart, have a good career.” Gani Sanggah.
“This time, my unappreciated mother.” Sarah saw Gani.

Salma could not cover up her disappointment, she quickened her pace and was as strong as holding on to tears. Instantly his steps stopped hearing the voice of a stranger in his ears.
“Salma.” Malik stopped Salma who was standing not far in front of him.
