Before proceeding, Author wants to tell the cause of Ani's change of attitude to give up so easily and decided not to hope again to Rendi .
The flashback
After Lidya came to her senses from her daydream, she was deeply embarrassed. He immediately returned Nurul's embrace and hid his face that had met red on his best friend's shoulder.
After being satisfied hugging, Nurul let out all the question marks in his mind.
"Lidya, since when do you like it?" nurul asked while giving Lidya a cold drink.
"Ekh it_"
"You two seem happy again, said Ani who just came from the toilet.
"Yes, finally Lidya_"
Suddenly Lidya covered Nurul's mouth with her hand so as not to tell her the truth.
"Why Lid?" confused Ani
"Don't talk about it here, while it sounds something else. I'm embarrassed.." replied Lidya while blushing shyly.
"Yes.. Yes, be patient An." said Nurul after Lidya took out his hand.
"I'm getting curious." insisted Ani
"Yes, because this news is very important." added Nurul so happy.
"really?"
"Hmmm"
"I can't wait for Nurul, Lidya."
"Let's tell me after we finish praying."
"Nurul's Lelama." Ani's
"Yes, if over time mending do not need to be criticized." replied Lidya
"Yes, I promise you..."
"Hmmm" Lidya answered briefly.

The bell went in. The three of them headed into the classroom.
Actually Lidya was very reluctant to leave the place, but how else they had to go to class. With his lazy steps he followed Nurul and Ani from behind while stealing a look towards Raka who happened to follow their departure with a deathly smile.

Lidya's heart seemed to want to scream.
"Akhs... Good-looking brother, I want to keep that smile of yours in my pocket."
"Can you please Lid?" ask Author he he

Night
After the Isya prayer, they had agreed to gather at Lidya's house. They are currently sitting in the garden behind their home.
The place becomes their favorite place if there are important things to discuss.
"Come on Lid, story dong. I'm curious to see."
"Nurul, I'm ashamed" said Lidya while looking down to hide the face of the tomato.
Nurul just smiled showing her dimples when she saw the expression of her best friend who was kasmaran.
"Your face is cute as Lidya." ledek Ani.
"Oh... It seems I can guess symptoms like this." continued Ani. "Are you in love with Lidya?" ask her with a full gaze.
Lidya simply nodded her head faintly while enduring the embarrassment.
"Akhs... Really true?" ani asked half in shock. "I'm so happy to hear Lidya" he said, hugging Lidya.
Nurul did not want to lose and hugged his two best friends.
"Please Ani, Nurul" he said as he took off the hugs of his two best friends.
"Oh yeah, since when is Lid?"
"I don't know" Lidya replied lightly
"How can you?" confused Ani
Lidya exhaled slowly while fixing her seat.
"Love is indeed confusing Ani, said people there come like jaelangkung."
"I don't think I believe it. But here's the truth."
Said Lidya while remembering the love figure of her monkey which is none other than Rendi.
Ani felt that something was poorly understood by her, "What do you mean like a Lidya hornbill?" confused Ani
"I don't understand either." Nurul added
"I mean it just comes and goes without us noticing. That's the way it is.." explains Lidya dengqn a slightly patronizing tone.
But Ani and Nurul just look at each other and shrug their shoulders a sign they have not really understood the meaning of Lidya.
Lidya who caught the confusion of his two friends was forced to reveal a truth that he had been hiding. Because he felt that now was the right time to tell them. That feeling no longer exists... After all, he had found the true prince. He confidently explained the meaning of his words. "As was the case when I liked Rendi" he continued
"You mean brother Rendi?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"So you've liked Rendi's sister too?" ani asked half in shock.
"Yes, but it was then, and the taste just disappeared Ani."
"I think I'm the only one like that Lidya" Nurul added
Ani was increasingly surprised by the statement from Nurul, he did not expect that his two friends also had a special feeling to Rendi. But he has no right to ban the two, because until now he and Rendi have no special relationship. Finally, he chose to clarify the intentions of his two best friends. He does not want to think about the things that are not for both. "You mean Nurul?" tanyanya.
"I was also amazed by Kak Rendi." replied Nurul casually, because indeed he did not have a special taste. He only admires the friendly figure of Rendi, not arrogant and easy to get along with anyone.
Ani was very relieved to hear Nurul's confession. "Akhs.. You two are evil. Why don't you ever tell me this?" babble Ani while hitting her two best friends softly.
"Because we still doubt Ani." they replied in unison and stared at each other.
"And I feel something different if I'm dealing with the Killer."
"I can also feel different with my handsome Ustadz." continued Nurul while imagining the figure of his prince.
"Is your handsome Ustadz Ari's sister?" ask Lidya.
"I'm finally lost." murmured Nurul and can still be heard by his two best friends.
"Issha... You make me jealous." Ani protested
"Let's just relax, Ani, someday you'll find someone who really loves you."
"Yes, I agree with Nurul. Better forget all about Rendi. He's never considered you..."
"Yes, she already knows how you feel about her" Nurul added.
"But..."
"Take it easy Ani, someday you'll find your true love."
"I'm..."
"Would you bear the same hurt for the rest of your life?"
"Yes, forget about the person who never appreciated your feelings."
Ani who received a series of attacks from her two best friends was unable to escape again. He finally agreed to the advice of his two best friends.
"Alright, I'll try it" he said with a bit of force as he felt he would not be able to let go of the feelings that had long grown in the depths of his heart.
"Ani's spirit." said Lidya while holding Ani's right shoulder.
"You can do it." continued Nurul while holding Ani's left shoulder.
Ani looked at her two best friends in turn and her gaze was met with sincere smiles from her two best friends.
He felt like he had gained a superpower that had long been buried within him, then....
"Yes, I'll try."
He excitedly pledged all the determination in his heart while clenching his hands and raising them parallel to his head.
"Ani's spirit, you can definitely." Author cheered.
Without them noticing there was a pair of ears and who was watching them behind a fairly lush flower tree.
