"Sir, are you okay?" Ambar immediately headed to Ave's room out of concern as a mother.
"Ave is well, ma'am," answered Ave to calm his mother who suddenly parno.
"Kowe yo opo toh Le. Ora Isa take care of Cah Ayu." Eyang Yaya looks irritated and blames Salim for Ave's stupor. [We how anyway, Le. Can't take care of Cah Ayu ]
Salim lowered his head not daring to go against the eyed words.
"Wes toh pak. La wong Salim anterake mom nag omah'e Sri. Ojo diseneneneni toh Salim." Bela Eyang Uti who saw Salim blamed.(It's been, sir. La Salim took me to Sri's house. Don't be scolded)
"Oh ngono toh. Yo pak'e ora ngerti," said Yaya eyang slowly because of the shame of scolding Salim.
"It's okay Eyang," Salim replied politely.
"Yes rest, Nduk. Don't go to college tomorrow." Ambar's advice that doesn't want his daughter to get sick.
"Mom, tomorrow Ave is still off. Early in the month Ave entered."
"Oh, yes I forgot. Yes, just rest," said Ambar closed the door to Ave's room.
The holiday period is not over. There are still three weeks left to enjoy this holiday. Although, the holiday does not mean Ave can be alone. From cock crows to sunset. Lots of activities Ave. Starting from helping on the plantation, tutoring knitting, learning to cook. All was done with pleasure. She wants to be a good wife like her mother.

Ave's Pov
Today, when I went to the park behind the cafe. I met Dimas and Bhishma. Minus Gayatri's. They followed me while guiding the bike. I stopped and looked back.
"What, you want?" I screamed a little when I said that.
"It's okay. We're just following you" Dimas said as he approached my bicycle.
"Let's ride. I'm banging you for a walk around the park," he bargained sassyly riding my bike.
"Sister, I told you. I don't want to. Don't force me," I said in a furious tone.
I was horrified to see the gaze of Bhishma who seemed to want to lick me.
"I'm not forcing you. Yeah, right, Bus?"
"Then what brother want?"
"Be my girlfriend" he said forcefully.
"I'm surprised by you, Vel. You're the son of a rich man in this town, beautiful, smart, but you want to be the same Salim who is a maid." Bisma roughly said that.
"What do you two have to do with Salim?"
"I want to get rid of Salim from you let you be mine." Dimas's tone scared me.
"Once again sorry, sister. I don't like brother. Point!" I say out loud.
"How dare you, same Dimas. You don't know who Dimas is?" Snappy Bisma rough.
Do I need to know? Basic bisma mouth congek.
"I'm sorry I don't want to know" I replied, leading the bike away from them.
My bike was being held by Bhishma.
"Dimas can do anything to get you and destroy the people who stand in his way" Bhishma threatened in a vile tone.
"Please get your hands off my bike." I snapped at Bhishma despite being scared.
Bisma threw her hand from the wheel of the bike so violently that it caused me to fall backwards.
"I remind you once again. We will destroy Salim if you continue with him" Dimas threatened this time.
"Hey you two! What did you do Ave fall!" Shouted Bang Rahman (head of the Thugs) from a distance.
"Remember my message, sweet lady. I just want you to be mine. Understand that." Dimas ruffled my hair and I saw the look in his sneaky eyes.
"Go you! If anything happens to him. We will gang up on you both" said Bang Rahman, approaching me and warning both Dimas and Bhishma.
Dimas and Bisma stepped away after being sent off by Bang Rahman.
"Abang will call Salim. Wait here," Bang Rahman said as he lifted my body to stand up.
I immediately sat down softly. I've only been aware of Dimas's true nature for six months. It's just good outside. Cunning inside.

Ave was still shocked by the events just now. The street children were worried about his pale, sweaty face. They fanned to avoid sweating. Someone brought warm milk. Finally they got out of the way when Salim came to pick up Ave in the park.
"Ave, it's Salim." Salim sat down beside Ave and patted Ave on the shoulder.
"Salim, Ave is afraid." Break the cry of Ave who was detained a few minutes ago.
"Not be afraid. Salim is here," said Salim hugging Ave gives calm.
"They will kill Salim" said Ave stammering amidst his cries.
Salim was stunned to hear it. Salim already knew what was happening because Bang Rahman told him everything.
"They wouldn't dare kill Salim." Salim said calmly.
"What if it happens?"
"It won't happen, Ve. Salim will be with Ave forever."
"really?" Ave let go of Salim's embrace and looked at his fiancee's two eyeballs with tears.
"The regime will be there for Ave at any time." His words made Ave not cry anymore.
"Not crying anymore. It will be ugly. One could be angry with Salim, "he sneered while wiping Ave's tears with his hands.
Ave could finally smile.

"I can't figure out why I lost to Salim." Dimas looked angry when he reached his home.
"It's been six months of all sorts of ways I've approached her to pretend in front of her eyes that there are a lot of rules but still I lost." Dimas clenched his hands withstanding emotions.
"All we have to do is get rid of that Salimnya, Mas." The bisma provokes Dimas's exploding rage.
"But how?"
"Just calm. That's my business" Bisma said mysteriously.
"Looks like you got a grudge against Salim, Bis?" Search Dimas suspiciously.
Bhishma only replied with a laugh.
