Love is often blind to good things that seem bad, and to bad things that seem good.

AUTHOR POV
Rifan is trying to find a way to express his feelings with Nida. After all, what Doni said was true.
Every now and then open whatsapp and look for a contact by the name of "Nida" trying to start a chat, then delete it again.
Next so.
It's so strange that Lo Fan, what the fuck has become so awkward like this!
Rifan said inwardly while tapping quietly on his forehead.
Ting...
*W*hatsapp from someone whose name is foreign. The contact has been stored for a long time, but it feels new this time contact.
Zidan: Bro, my mission is done. Sorry for everything I did for Bokap!
There was not the slightest intention of Rifan to respond to Zidan's message. His hands were clenched hard.
Rifan takes the jacket to Nida's house.
Da, I'm sorry. I don't think Zidan could have done this. I was wrong Da, I failed to protect lobDa!
"Assalamualaikum Nidaaa! "
"Waalaikumussalam, uh Rifan come in! "
Rifan's arrival was warmly welcomed by Ms. Hanna.
Rifan went into the living room and found Azlan and Endah.
"It's been big you Fan, the feeling was still wearing singlet shirts like the front of the house hahaha." greet brother Endah warm.
"Yes also dikasi eat with grandma yes gede lah kak, oh yes by the way Nida where nih Bu? "
"There's a back garden, samperin gih! " let me ask Endah.
In the back garden
"Da!"
"Dihhh nangis lo, why?"
Nida did not answer Rifan's question. Just a blank look straight ahead.
"Da, I understand. Azlan told me all that."
"Dead me myself Fan! "
"This time I won't follow your will Da, you have to beat me! "
"The person that Azlan meant we know Da!"
"You mean? "
"Zidan's family! they just want to benefit you, Zidan want you to sign a letter of approval of the transfer of wealth that om Azlan talked about earlier, Da I think Zidan is not that bad, so I just let him deketin lo!"
"Nga! hhhh."
"Because you don't like Zidan you even take advantage of this precarious situation to slander Zidan? Fan, I understand you never like Zidan because Zidan has everything, right? because you feel less popular on faculty with Zidan? I hate you Fan?!"
PLAKKKK
Rifan palpated his right cheek that was left behind by five fingers from Nida's hard slap.
Nida went back into the room.
Meanwhile, the situation in the living room has not completely melted away. Om Azlan, brother Endah and buk Hanna are still trying to find the best solution for the meeting later tonight.
Day shows at 05:00 p.m.
"Mom, Om, Brother Endah. Nida go for a minute! "
"Where are you going, break this fast! " Om Azlan tried to prevent.
"Bent on doang om, Assalamualaikum! "
Meanwhile Rifan is still in the back garden stroking his cheeks that still feel hot.

"Why are you crying gini baby? "
Nida only thinks about Zidan, I don't know what's in his head until a time like this just want to see Zidan.
Rifan never thought to say bad things and slander Zidan.
Instead of calming me down, even vilifying Zidan. Lo why Fan? you're not the Rifan I know!
Nida said in her heart as she wiped the tears in front of Zidan.
They met at a cafe near the campus.
"Da, you're so innocent!"
"You mean? "
"...?" Nida still did not understand and frowned.
Zidan is seen taking out a red map with a piece of paper patched inside.
"You see this! " while showing a piece of paper patched earlier.
"What letter is Zidan? "
"You know my father?"
"Yes know. One of the biggest investors in the campus! "
"Before I want to apologize if the way I'm wrong ahahaha, actually I never really love you Da!" said Zidan, the cruelty brought his face closer while lifting Nida's chin with his right hand.
"You!"
As if understanding the contents of the letter Zidan showed, Nida tried to take it from Zidan's hands.
"Eitss isn't that easy, my dear! lookit! this is you who signed yourself. Try to remember again dear pas yesterday we often learn together lo! "
"Dangerous!!!!"
Nida slapped a hard slap that Zidan was able to fend off first. Now that things turned around, Nida's wrist was clutched hard by Zidan.
"Aw sick! "
"You, your mother and your extended family will not be able to get a penny from my father's company! "
"Cihhhh?! take care of your mouth!"
Zidan's arrogant speech was answered with a glance from Nida's mouth.
The atmosphere of the cafe that afternoon began to be crowded considering the time to break the fast is not long.
Zidan, who was burning with emotion, clutched Nida's cheek so hard that Nida could not speak. Regardless of the cafe visitors looking towards the two of them, Zidan was still in his position.
"A-aa ku pi-kir k-amu ora-ng y-ang ba-ik, I am what Zidan!" said Nida stammering and grimacing in pain.
BUGGGGGH
"Once again you dare to touch Nida I'm making you a lifetime of money anj***!!!!"
Rifan was a little late, Nida had gotten an unpleasant treatment from Zidan almost thirty minutes had passed.
The arm of his hand as well as his jaw that was felt so sick due to Zidan's rough treatment the more painful it felt when Zidan's grip was released suddenly.
BUGGGH
Zidan hit Rifan hard but not on the face, but the stomach.
Nida, who was still in pain, was no longer able to break up two men in front of her.
Fortunately, the cafe immediately separated the fight between Zidan and Rifan.
Zidan left the cafe first.
"My business is not finished yet!" said Zidan out of the cafe while staring at Rifan sharply.
***
A week had passed since the incident at the cafe that afternoon.
The day before Rifan's departure to Switzerland.
There is no single best solution to the Nida family's problems. Knowing that the letter of transfer of wealth has been signed by Nida himself makes om Azlan really lost the opportunity to help reclaim the rights of Nida's late father.
Mr. Azlan and Mr. Endah have returned to Malaysia.
As usual Ms. Hanna remained steadfast and always said positive things to Nida. It was not a matter of treasure, but the dignity and dignity that the Zidan family had lowered. Moreover, Nida who has become a decoy on Zidan's devious game.
I don't know when and how Zidan got Nida's signature, certainly in a sneaky way that Nida didn't realize.
Nida was devastated, not expecting that the man she loved who had just yesterday felt like they were expressing each other's feelings of like, which now made her heart break out of shape.
I'm ashamed to see you Fan, I can't even forgive myself! I darken Fan's eyes! I am not horrified!
Nida said in her heart while tightly hugging the childhood photo of the two of them.
Right, the exact same photo Rifan displayed on the study table in his room. It's just that the photos that Nida has are smaller in size.

"Hallo Da, is it light? i'm tomorrow... "
"Well, I want to take a break, Fan! "
Tuttt...
Nida didn't realize she had just missed a precious moment.
SERIATE...
