lilia carried a bouquet of flowers with a smile on her face. He entered a room with many spectator seats, he chose to sit on the bench of the front row " handsome" muttered Lilia when he saw hafizhan sitting in front of him with his back
lilia repeatedly tidied up her flower bouquet while continuing to glance at the hafizhan who was talking to some people sitting in front of her
" your thesis passed, with the A+ predicate" said a middle-aged man and then tapped a hammer on the table
a thunderous sound of applause echoed throughout the room "Thank you sir" hafizhan replied smilingly greeting the lecturers who were testing his script trial
hafizhan turned his head and smiled as his bead eyes met lilia "I passed" hafizhan said silently
the two of them walked over "safe huh" lilia gave her bouquet of flowers to hafizhan.
hafizhan received it and inhaled the fragrance of the flower that lilia gave "Thank you" her outstretched hand rubbed the head of the gentle lilia
lilia looked around "have I given you congratulations? " tanya lilia did not see anyone else approaching hafizhan
hafizhan smiled "maybe" hafizhan started tidying up his books with the help of lilia
"i'm just telling you that I'm in court today" hafizhan looked softly at Lilia and took her out of the courtroom with a bag containing her book
"your friend? " ask lilia curiously
"my friends are just bagas and fredy, they have work to do. at least we will gather together when there is time" explained hafizhan
lilia nodded in understanding of "your family? " ask lilia back
hafizhan stopped his steps smilingly staring at lilia "they are busy, but they can still come at my graduation" hafizhan replied
lilia nodded "emmmm" they continued their path towards the library
"i put this book in the locker first yes, then we have lunch together" said hafizhan to his student locker next to the library room
lilia waited in front of the hafizhan lecture hall while playing her feet
hafizhan approached lilia "let's go" hafizhan holding lilia's hand towards the parking lot
"where do we eat? " ask lilia
hafizhan picked up the helmet and helped lilia to put it up "later also know" hafizhan got on his bike and hinted lilia on his bike
"tight grip" lilia hesitated to obey hafizhan, making her only dare to hold the tip of the hafizhan leather jacket
hafizhan glanced behind his rearviews pulling both lilia's hands and wrapping them around his muscular stomach "would it fall if such a hold? " ask hafizhan without looking
"no" lilia replied
hafizhan began to drive his motorbike towards the dining area
hafizhan drives fast enough to the area outside the city. 40 minutes drive hafizhan stop the speed of his motor. lilia down take off his helmet look around "this is where? " lilia sees a mountainous area and a fairly wide dining area with quite crowded visitors
hafizhan pulled Lilia's arm inside the restaurant towards the reception desk "the place of order on behalf of lilia" hafizhan said
the restaurant employee smiled kindly "let's follow me" the restaurant employee directed hafizhan and lilia to enter the room with a clear view of the mountains
"please sir, it's our menu book, please choose it. if you have chosen to call us there" pointed out the restaurant employee at the service post at the end
lilia was still glancing around her without caring for hafizhan who chuckled at the confusion of lilia "just plain to see" said hafizhan
lilia looked at hafizhan "huh? " lilia replied still confused
" it's one of my favorite places to eat" said hafizhan handed the menu book to lilia
" well, the view is good, I've only been here for the first time" said Lilia began to look at the menu book
" chosen what you want to eat first" hafizhan began to mark his order
"have you never eaten this? " hafizhan received Lilia's menu book and waved at the service to give her the menu book she had marked
lilia shook her head "no, we usually eat at college or fast food restaurants right" lilia replied
hafizhan raised his eyebrows, "what does this have to do with where we've been eating? all this time" asked hafizhan puzzled
lilia scratched her non-itchy nape
" hehehe, I only ever eat out with you, mama usually cook, home cooking at home rarely cook weird" said Lilia
hafizhan chuckled "this is also home cooking lilia is not a strange food, only this is typical Sundanese cuisine" said hafizhan
"ohhh" lilia's mouth rounded hafizhan's speech
hafizhan was anxious to see lilia pinching on lilia's cheek anxious "you're so funny anyway" murmured hafizhan smiling
lilia rubbed her cheek and smiled back "is time funny? " ask lilia
hafizhan rubbed lilia's head gently "yes"

"hmmm once in a while, if you want to be alone" replied hafizhan
" this is you are not alone, not wrong you did not invite me here? " ask plain lilia
hafizhan smiled "i also want to bring people close to me here" hafizhan replied
lilia smiled happily "means we're close? " ask lilia excitedly
hafizhan rubbed lilia's head gently "you think? " ask hafizhan
lilia immediately wrapped her hands around hafizhan's arms "of course we're close" said Lilia leaning her head against hafizhan's arms without awkwardly
"i will continue my studies in London next year" hafizhan said suddenly
like thunder in broad daylight, hafizhan's speech made lilia perfectly round "next year? 6 More months? " ask lilia
hafizhan nodded "hmmmm 6 months away"
lilia's tears began to fall "6 months away" muttered lilia releasing her grip on hafizhan's arm
seeing tangisa lilia there was a tightness in hafizhan's chest, then hugging lilia "I was only 2 years there" said hafizhan
lilia started as much as "you" muttered lilia held back
" i'm sorry lilia, but my college plan has been prepared by my father for a long time" said hafizhan
lilia further tightened her embrace channeling her feelings to hafizhan
after being calm enough hafizhan loosened his embrace "it's late afternoon let's go home, afraid of the night" said hafizhan
lilia nodded "hmmm"
as the two of them stepped towards the parking lot suddenly the rain fell with the same swift as the heart of lilia who was in a mess "oh rain" murmured hafizhan looking at the overcast sky with white agility
the waiter of the restaurant approached hafizhan "it looks like the rain will be long sir, the road will be dangerous because of the condition of the mountains that many twisting turns" said the waiter
"then how? " ask hafizhan worriedly
" here there is lodging sir, can you order to rest until the rain subsides "hafizhan and lilia widen their eyes wide at the servant
