The trip back to Bandung was not like the first day, everything was noisy in the bus because of the spirit. While now most of them are applauded for exhaustion.
Viko sat beside Tasya, watching every inch of Tasya's face calm him down. The girl fell asleep due to lack of sleep. So Viko must wake up and make sure that Tasya sleeps soundly without being hit by anything. The two of them are being the talk of people because these few days look very close.
Especially now that they sit together while listening to music with the same headset. Who does not envy seeing it, let alone Nadin, Dera and Rosa. They looked at Tasya with a look of disgust because they did not accept Viko being close to him. Viko was ordinary with the other stares, most importantly she was with Tasya and took good care of Tasya.
After several hours passed, they finally arrived in the city of Bandung safely. Tasya and Al go home together because they are picked up by Radit, while Viko goes home alone because she leaves him at the house of the school guard and his regular siomay man.
Viko entered his house, seen his parents were busy talking in the family room. This is how if her father is at home, Rena will spend time with her husband with their children who are busy with her routine.
"Assalamualaikum," said Viko while greeting his parents.
"Waalaikumsalam, uh mama's most handsome son has come home, how exciting study tour?" Ask Rena attentively.
Viko sat next to her mother and hugged her tightly. The behavior of Viko if at home is like that, like a koala baby who does not want to be separated from its mother.
"Seru, Ma. Very cool show," replied Viko.
"Oh yes papa there is good news for you" said Beni-His father.
"What, Pa?" Ask Viko who immediately justifies her sitting position.
"Papa during his time in Tokyo was back and forth to America, in addition to meeting colleagues, Papa also looking for the best University there, papa relations incidentally offer for you to continue your study there. So I hope you can learn from now, even if you do not use the test, you have to adjust to the learning method there," explained Beni.
"Pope accept the offer?" Ask Viko in shock.
"Oh of course, after all it's good for your future, after that you can take care of papa's company."
"Pa, Viko won't. Viko wants to study in Indonesia. Papa why don't you ask Viko first want to or not? Viko doesn't want to!" Viko Firmly.
"There is no rebuttal, Viko Narendra! You are the successor of this family, what happens if you continue in Indonesia with the will to learn as you please. Papa will take care of it from now on!" snapped Beni.
"Pa Viko has a life of her own which is already Viko tata. Viko has a dream here and papa has no right to set Viko up!"
Viko went into her room, and she slammed the door quite hard. Viko is very unruly about her life, let alone forced to do things that are not her choice.
Viko tried to catch her breath, her emotions plus tired from the long journey. Without further ado he picks up the phone and looks for Tasya's contacts. But he stopped it immediately.
"So, this is not right. The cave must try to convince papa first to not move the cave to America. Only after everything is sorted out the same story cave Tasya," he murmured.
Viko slammed her body on the mattress and looked at the ceiling of her room. Ever since he was with Tasya, he had a dream of being with the girl for as long as he could. But he just promised me the bad news came. Destroying all the dreams and aspirations he has made.

A couple descends from a black pajero parked in an elite cemetery. The all-black clothes with flower bouquets in her hands signified the deep sadness they felt.
They both walked past the side of the cemetery and bowed to one of the tombs that read: Jonathan Adibawa
"Jo how are you? I'm sorry that my wife and I just got here. I'm glad your tomb is well-maintained and clean. I'll make sure the resting place is comfortable and better than this" said the tall man.
"Jo, we will keep our promise to take care of Radit and Tasya. I also promise to join Amara in financing the needs of your children until they succeed. I'll make sure it happens" now the wife is talking while looking at the gravestone.
"Thanks to you we can be what we are now, I will forever be indebted to you. About our secret maybe I need some time to discuss this with Tasya. But I will definitely finish," he continued, who now has tears.
"Already, Diana. Don't mourn Jo's departure, she won't be happy if we cry. All we need to do is keep the promise to him" Haris hugged his wife and tried to calm her down.
Yes, they are Haris and Diana. The parents of Al, when they collapse Jonathan who gave his branch company in Surabaya for them to take care. Until now they can rise again. That's why they feel indebted to Jonathan. Besides, during his life. They were all friendly, much to the kindness they felt from Jonathan.
After they finished the funeral, they continued to return to their homes facing Tasya. They deliberately did not sell it because they knew that one day they would return here or just a place to stop while in the city.
"Have you told Al that we're coming here?" Ask Haris to his wife.
"Not yet, Al would definitely not allow it. My message is sometimes ignored" Diana replied, showing her phone.
"So you haven't talked to Al at all?" He must be surprised to see us at home later," said Haris.
"But I told Tasya that we were going back to Bandung. But I didn't tell him that we were coming home today either. Anyway, if I told Al that, he would have told me not to go see him. I don't know what she's thinking, but besides this, I'm her mother. I'm certainly worried about being away from my son."
"You don't put too much pressure on Al, he has also given us a reason why we shouldn't talk about this to Tasya. His condition is still unstable, let us tell him slowly. It's definitely not easy, Al told me. If he's so scared of losing Tasya. That's why he was afraid that if Tasya found out about this now Tasya would come back down. Be patient" said Haris gave understanding.
"You're right, it looks like I was too hard and even pressed Al who didn't know anything. I also feel guilty for her, yesterday I was adamant about my decision" Diana said.
"It's okay, I know your intentions are good. But we also need to know which time is right and which is not. Don't beat yourself up, we'll do it together and slow down." Haris stroked his wife's hair attentively. Trying to give his wife some peace.
Sometimes women are always in a hurry to make decisions. Thankfully, Haris was with Diana. Otherwise Al will slowly move away and avoid his mother continuously.
After a few minutes of travel, they arrived in front of their house. Diana looked around the house not much different than before. This house is the house of his labors with Haris. Full of tears in fighting for it.
Diana scolded the bell of the house because it was locked. Not long after the door was open.
Al was shocked to see his parents here. He blinked his eyes a few times because he had just woken up. But this isn't a dream.
"You guys here?" Al closed his eyes while taking a deep breath, he was late in holding his parents back from coming here.
