As planned, I went home from school with Nadya. While waiting for Nadya in the school corridor, I was surprised by Ditya's voice "*Van, tonight there is an event?"
"uh no, what's up Dit?"
"can I not play in your house?"
"emmm..by kog, it's okay, just don't be too late"
"okay, thank you.gue go home first*" said Ditya as he passed.

In the evening, as usual I spent my time reading novels in the room before dinner.
look.tokkk....
"sadly, your friend Ditya was waiting outside" my mother's voice knocked on my door
"yes ma"
I put my novel on the nightstand and opened the door, and I saw my mother standing in front of me.
"*that your friend is waiting for you, you meet.. "
"who's ma?"
"he said his name was Ditya, and he had dinner with him"
"huh.he's actually here*" I muttered quietly.
"already hunted even dumb, pity you menmenu waiting"
My mom and I went down the stairs to go to the living room to see Ditya. Ditya kept his promise. He really came to my house.
"Son Ditya come to dinner first yu'." take mama from behind me
"grandmother's thanks" declined Courteous
"don't bother.ayo love to invite your friend"
"yes ma"
Mom passed by leaving us for the dinner table.
"let's go Dit, can't refuse the windfall" asked me and answered with Ditya with a smile.
I walked over to my family who had gathered at the dinner table. And Ditya followed my steps.
In between enjoying dinner, we occasionally chatted casually there. They asked little questions to Ditya.
"so where do you live?" ask papa
"*I live not far from here oom, on Hero's road"
"oo..deket ya*" interrupted mom. Ditya nodded and smiled. "have long been with Vania?" continue mama
"just 2 years old aunt, class 3 Junior High School.because I moved from Bogor" replied Ditya, mama and papa just nodding to hear it.
After dinner, I invited Ditya to sit in the gazebo next to the house, a place my family used to relax and enjoy the evening atmosphere.
Bi inah came to bring us warm tea and snacks. "thank ya bi'.." I said kindly. Bi Inah smiled and then went back inside.
We joked and talked about schoolwork. Then we kept quiet because we felt there was no more material to talk about.
"Van.." call Ditya suddenly open the chat again
"*hmmm"
"i like you*" Ditya said without further ado
"uhuh?"
"sorry yes, maybe you think this is too soon, at first I hesitated to reveal but I really can't hide my feelings since the beginning of our meeting"
I was silent to hear what he said. I saw the honesty in his eyes even though he looked down more often because of his fear.
"it's okay if you refuse me Van. . . important we still keep cementing.lupain also if I ever talk to you tonight" he continued in a sad tone.
"*eng..not that means Dit. honestly I also have the same feeling.I'm just surprised I could be this fast"
"when did you like me?"
"since the school breakup yesterday, ever since you sang a song on stage and kept looking at me. You asked God to look after the woman who was yours...honestly I was quite offended at that time because all forms of your attention had touched my heart*" I said shyly
"so.." continued Ditya hanging.
"what?" I said pretend to be stupid
"you're really mine, right?" he continued with a smile that began to expand. I nodded and turned my face away from the embarrassment. Spontaneous made her smile wide.
"i promise I'll take care of you and not let you down" she said gently making me look at her. My heart is so flowery to hear it. I want to feel like I'm jumping for joy while screaming. But no way, I could not give a bad impression at the beginning of our relationship. I should try as calmly as possible.
We looked at each other and smiled.
"yes already.I go home first yes.already malem. sorry to disturb your time that should be made to learn" continued Ditya pamit.
"that's okay, I call you papa's mom"
I went inside the house to call my mom and dad to ask him to meet Ditya who was going to say goodbye.
After saying goodbye to my parents, I drove Ditya home to the parking lot to pick up his motor matic
"i'm going home, thank you for tonight" he said as he rode his bike.
"yes, you take care" I said waving my hand. He turned on and put his motorcycle out of the fence.
After his departure, which my eyes could not reach, I went back into the house. I saw Mama, Papa and Adit's sister sitting on the living room couch watching TV.
"there is another seneng nih exhausted in apelin" chirped brother Adit mocking me for seeing the happy look on my face.
"what the hell is so pretentious" I replied cynically making mama and papa smile at me.
"sit here dear beside papa" said papa patting the sofa beside her. I obey.
"pawan papa's children are getting older it turns out" he continued ruffling my hair
"iihhhh papa.so this mess, it's ugly" I whined spoiled while allowing my hair to fall apart. Mom and Dad just chuckled.
"Well, that's your girlfriend? ask mom with a soft tone. My cheeks were red with shame.
"wah.kayakan bertar again we have a son-in-law ni mah.." teased papa.
"huh papa what the hell, Vania is still in school you know." I said pinching papa's distended stomach. Everyone chuckles at my papa's jokes. I'm even more embarrassed. I cover my face with both my hands so they don't see my cheeks getting flushed.
"auwwww... papa joking darling".
For fear of becoming more and more a material teasing, I ran away from them towards my room. I hear their laughter still in my ears. I opened the door and closed it. When I was about to move my feet towards the bed, my phone suddenly rang. I opened WhatsApp incoming message. I smiled reading the name of the sender. Ditya, the name that a few minutes ago will be an encouragement for my next days.
He said: "what are you?"
me: "this just entered the room. . You've sampe home?"
He said: "this is new, are you going to sleep?"
i: "yes, I'm so sleepy"
Ditya: "good dream yes. tomorrow I pick you up yes, we leave together. I love U💗"
My heart is glad not to read his last sentence. He was really good at making me melt.
i: "iya.... love U too 😊"
