Tia was surprised to find out that the doctor was a man who used to be her rival during the High School.
"The alpha?!"
"Tia?!"
"Prefrank!"
"Duck!"
Again the two mention each other's names and special nicknames only between the two. They did not expect to be reunited in the hospital with a different situation and appearance.
For a few seconds the two eyes meet each other, bringing memories of the incident seven years ago where they were figures who always scrambled to become class champions.
"Hay, Tembem! Don't you dream of winning the class again!" hardik Arfa to Tia who became the only student to be reckoned with.
"Basic, Duck! How dare you threaten! If you can not just talk a lot but prove dong!" tia won't lose.
The two eyes clashed against each other, emitting a hostile flash.
"All right! If this semester I'm the class champion, you have to grant me one wish!" challenge Arfa who is nicknamed 'Duck' by Tia. Duck is a type of poultry that if sound will make the atmosphere become crowded.
"Haha! All right, I accept. Don't blame me if you'll lose a lot of money to grant my request later!" reply Tia by folding both her hands on her chest.
"Alright, don't blame me too if you're going to cry granting my request" Arfa said again.
"I will grant that origin is natural, not demeaning my pride!" tia again.
"Okay, Deal!" Arfa held up her thumb as a sign that their deal had been agreed.
"Alright, Deal!" reply Tia also pointed her thumb.
The two people who entered the series of lists of outstanding and exemplary students began to compete in collecting grades in every replay and school exam.
Arrive at class list announcement. Tia and Arfa both looked tense. They stared at the teacher who was writing the class ranking. Rank ten to three was already written, less two more ranks.
A cold sweat had already dripped down Arfa and Tia's forehead. Their eyes did not blink as the teacher started writing number two.
Arfa was excited when the rank two was written by the teacher.
"Yes! You're second, Bem!" pekik Arfa was delighted. It is certain if the number one ranking is himself, because only two people whose value is always chasing.
"Ck! Not necessarily. It could be another student. Don't be happy about you, Bek!" sahut Tia who did not accept the victory of Arfa.
The teacher again wrote the name of the student who was ranked first on the blackboard. The atmosphere was tense again. The two men looked back at the teacher's marker board maker used for writing.
Letter by letter began to be written on the blackboard. One name has been displayed occupying the first rank. There is written the name of Arfa as a candidate who occupies the first rank.
Tia tucked her hair child covering her eyes into her ears. Murat was upset and disappointed because he had been defeated oh Arfa imprinted on Tia's beautiful face.
"I'm not going to run away! Now tell me what you want from me!" Tia challenged Arfa. He didn't want to lick his spit back. What he had said would not he retract whatever it was as long as it did not embarrass him and lose his pride.
"Not now, but someday when the time comes. I'll ask you! Remember you owe this duck!" Arfa smiled towards Tia.
Actually Arfa wanted to reveal it in front of Tia what she wanted to ask. However, Arfa undoes his intentions. He did not want to be called a figure who took advantage of the situation.
"Alright, don't blame me if I forget about it" Tia said. Tia stepped away leaving Arfa who was staring softly at her.
"Tia, for the sake of always being with you I'm willing to keep learning day and night, it doesn't cross my mind to waste time playing. For your sake Tia, I hope one day you understand. This heartbeat would be more rhythmic if there was your name in it," Arfa murmured inwardly as she smiled towards the direction where Tia disappeared.
Since then, Arfa has always avoided Tia if Tia charges for what Arfa wants. Tia and Arfa's relationship was further distant, plus Arfa who moved school because she followed her father on duty.

Their eyes were cut off, as Arfa asked for the information she should write on the patient list.
"How are you, Tembem?" ask Arfa to Tia. Arfa called Tia Tembem because Tia has a soft cheek like a bakpao.
"Well," Tia replied briefly because Tia was busy covering up her nervousness.
"Oh, Yes. This patient named Hans, is he your husband?" ask Arfa by suppressing tightness in the chest.
"No, Brother Hans is my ex-sister-in-law. I now live with him to help take care of his mother," Tia replied honestly. He's not hiding anything from Arfa.
Arfa is thrilled when she learns that Tia has any relationship with Hans.
"Thank God, I thought he was your husband" replied Arfa bluntly.
Tia rounded her eyes upon hearing Arfa's ambiguous words.
"You mean?" tia asked in a search.
Triying ....
The message notification sound goes into the Arfa phone. There is written the name of the woman who is now his life companion. Yes, Arfa has married the girl of his parents' choice.
"Susi?! Ck! Always a nuisance!" arfa's curse in his heart.
"Ah, No. Sorry, Tia. This is Hans's checkup. Please you can take this to the administration so that it can be passed on to a specialist who will handle Mr. Hans" Arfa said while giving a checkup sheet.
Tia received and then parted ways with Arfa. Tia knew that Arfa must be busy, so she wanted Tia to leave immediately.
Arfa took a deep breath, as she rediscovered the girl who was her first love, circumstances did not support her. Arfa exhaled while rereading the message from the wife.
