It's like saying "I Miss You"
Time machines
Since the initial plan was to leave for work, Nada still wore her work uniform. He forgot to change his clothes. It made him feel unsettled. The jacket also does not carry. What if one of the marketing companies sees it on the street? Pandu several times glanced at the uncomfortable looking Tone. He immediately took out his cardigan and wrapped it around Nada's back.
Tone speechless. What the hell is going on? Why is it as if they are dating? Is that really what he's doing? Did Pandu hear his heart? The tone immediately corrected the position of the cardigan by wrapping it around his body. At least to cover his uniform in part. The smell of baby powder grabbed his sense of smell. The distinctive aroma of Pandu. Nada still remembers it. Even that hasn't changed at all.
“Where are we going?” Tanya Tada as Pandu's car started to drive.
Pandu was silent for a moment. “There's a movie I want to watch. Don't mind watching the movie, do you?”
Nada has already agreed to the last request of Pandu that he can grant. If it's so that he no longer meets this man, it doesn't matter to him if he has to take a leave of absence. Nada also felt no need to tell Dewanto about today's event. He only hoped that Dewanto would not come to his office.
Where are we after?”
Pandu fell silent again. Be honest. He had absolutely no preparation for this event. Everything just happened and he did not expect Nada would agree to his request this easily. He never really wanted this. But he has to do it. Nada deserves to be happy without her. Last chance for him to fix everything before he leaves.
“Entahlah. I haven't had time to think about it anywhere it doesn't matter as long as it's with you. Because I only have all day.” Pandu said. His gaze straight through the streets that feel lengthened.
The feeling of Tone was not calm. Why do Pandu's words seem like parting words? Where's he going? But isn't this what Nada wants? Never again met Pandu. But why...as if something is missing?
“Let's go home, stop by the bookstore, yes.” said Nada while staring at the screen of his phone. It is not usual for Dewanto to give no news at all. Is it possible to get to the office and not have time to contact?
“If until night doesn't matter, right?”
Tone looked at the driver who was beside him. They both travel for the whole day. Is that less? why did it have to be until night? suspicion of Tone began to appear. Something's not right. Is this guy planning to go back abroad?
“What should be until night? Is it not enough until the afternoon?”
A moment Pandu fell silent. It was like thinking of something. He forced a smile on Nada a moment later. “what if we went to the top?”
The Eye of Tone is perfectly rounded. On the one hand he is very happy if he goes to the top. It's been a long time since I last had a picnic. But on the other hand he again thought is it okay if traveling to that extent? Indeed, if he goes to the top, the possibility of him being caught by marketing employees is very thin when compared to going to the mall.
“Really you will take me to the top? With this thin shirt?” Tanya Nada brought her face closer just to see Pandu's expression.

The hammer has been knocked. The divorce trial will resume in two days. The decision will be taken at the final hearing. Pandu got up from his chair and walked out of the courtroom. He walked without caring about Sasti or his family. His decision to divorce was very unanimous. Of course, both of his parents did not want that. Which parent wants to see their child's marriage fall apart.
Dewanto soon followed Pandu. He had to talk about something because since Pandu came back from abroad, he never felt calm. Especially when knowing the past story between Pandu and Nada. Looks like he should talk about this with Pandu. Think of the best solution for all parties.
“Go, wait !” shouted Dewanto trying to follow the pace of Pandu who walked quite fast. “There's something I want to talk about.”
Pandu stopped his steps as soon as he heard his name being called. For him, Dewanto is a good brother and cares a lot for the family. He is not too familiar with Dewanto because the meeting of the two can be said not to have enough time.
“Tell me.” said Pandu with a flat expression. He looked very tired and wanted to straighten his back immediately after attending the trial all day.
Dewanto stared intently at the two eyes of Pandu. The man is still his sister-in-law. The man who was the choice of his favorite sister. There was no way he hated Pandu who had been guarding Sasti all this time. But he also has to take care of what is valuable to him.
“I want to negotiate with you.” said Dewanto steadily. “After this you and my sister will officially divorce. My family and I will not demand anything from you. What we've given, we won't ask for back. But can you meet one requirement from me?”
Pandu. He realized that the requirement was certainly not a pleasant thing for him. There is a price to pay for every decision. What kind of negotiation would she want to offer? “Tell me.”
“I'll let you go anywhere as long as you leave Nada. Stay away from that girl. So whatever's in your family I won't take back. You are also free to go anywhere. I will help you find a decent job according to where you live later. But leave Nada.”
From the beginning, it was all his fault. It was because of his stupidity. If there was a time machine, it might just turn back the time that has passed. He wants to fix it, he wants it back to how it was. But it's all too late. The future has gone too far. Even if he fixed it now, he would only find another way. Not with Nada.
Both hands of Pandu clenched tightly. He tried to hold back all his emotions. “I'll fulfill your requirements. Provided you give me a full day with Nada without you contacting Nada though.” Pandu said firmly. “You also can not reply or answer his phone for a whole day it.”
This man before him could really negotiate well. He knows how to get a win-win solution. It seemed like letting them off for an entire day would not have much influence. After that, they will never see each other again. That's how Dewanto thought until he finally agreed a deal between them.

Pandu and Nada drove to the top with a sports car owned by Pandu. After being satisfied buying a thick jacket, they headed for the top excitedly. Both of them even bought jackets of the same color. Joking and singing along on the way to the top. Forgetting everything that has happened in the past. Take a moment of burden in real life. Just for today, let them repeat everything. For the first time, the time machine that Pandu had wanted was finally granted. And Nada smiled back like she used to.
