The most awaited day finally came. Friday night the campus area became very crowded. A stage stands on the campus grounds. The lecturers and students had gathered under the stage to watch the first round of the campus women's election. The university also invited a special jury of beauty pageants. 

Keysa went backstage to get ready. There he meets Liza who is also preparing. 

"Oh, yeah, geez. Are you going to go on stage with that performance?" Liza glanced at Keysa with a mocking smile. "Miss, didn't you read the banner up ahead? It's the campus princess beauty pageant, not the ugly princess election." 

"Who said it was an ugly princess election? It doesn't seem to exist" Keysa replied so casually. 

"So, before you more bear the shame of mending backwards. Just look at your appearance has not supported your high ambitions," continued Liza who even continued to mock Keysa. 

Meanwhile, Keysa chose to ignore him. He did not want to waste energy just to serve Liza which could make his mood destroyed and fatal to his appearance.

Not long after the Liza worshippers came to their idol. They also enthusiastically praised the appearance of Liza who looks very beautiful with the makeup used by the girl, then demeaning Keysa who looks inversely proportional to the idol. 

"Look, the comparison between our idol and the cupu! Like heaven and earth, far apart!" said one of those who were followed by the other with laughter and words that were not much more cruel than that. 

The contest began with a vote to determine the order of appearance, and Keysa became the last order. 

"Look at the order to appear as the last number, of course, the result must be the tip rank," said Liza as she smashed her shoulder on Keysa's shoulder. 

The event hosted by Arsen and a woman with Arsen began. One by one the finalists began to display their talents in the order of performance they got. However, it was only in the middle of the show that the judges had started to get bored because the finalist appearance looked monotonous and nothing special. 

Liza's turn of appearance arrived. The girl took to the stage in a pink dress and makeup made as natural as possible, making Liza look beautiful and the spotlight of every eye that looked on.  Everyone immediately cheered as the violin-carrying girl began to play the violin strings, displaying her talent. 

Everyone present seemed to be carried away by the sound of the violin Liza played, until a boisterous applause echoed in the place when Liza finished playing. 

"Thank you for everything" said Liza, bowing after finishing her performance. "My appearance is not much, you will definitely be more entertained when Keysa appears. He's the best musical instrument I've ever known. I also learned a lot from her," continued Liza with a sly grin that was barely visible to anyone else.  

After Liza left the stage, the show continued with a distraction. A trio from the music faculty also contributed a song. They sang a mellow song that made Devano moved when they heard it. Until, Devano remembers Keysa who will perform after the singer finished singing. He immediately left the audience to look for Keysa. 

Devano goes backstage, then finds Felix coming straight at him when he gets there. 

"Keysa where?" ask Devano. 

"There," Felix replied, giving Keysa the item she had prepared for Devano. "This is for you from Keysa" he said  

Devano then received a box given by Felix and immediately opened it. A special shoe for Devano dancing had Keysa prepared for her. 

Keysa knew, though Devano continued to refuse to accompany him on stage, but he was confident that the man's stance would change. Until, Keysa prepared shoes for Devano and entrusted to Felix. 

After her name was called, Keysa took to the stage wearing a knee-length red dress that made her look very charming, even though her face was covered in a mask. Keysa deliberately covered part of the face with a mask so that people could not see clearly his face. Even so, the judges remain interested in Keysa's appearance because Keysa actually has a good posture and fits perfectly with the dress she wears. 

"Alright, let's see the performance of our last finalist, sister Keysa Indera Fidelya with a cello instrument that will be played" said the female host. 

Keysa then began to show his talent. He glanced backstage, hoping Devano would change his mind at the last minute. He wished he would accompany her on stage. However, until the host told Keysa to display her abilities, Keysa did not see the man's whereabouts. 

'Maybe he doesn't want to. Come on, Key, don't expect too much from others. Without him you can, ' Keysa murmured inwardly, encouraging himself. 

Inevitably, Keysa also played alone. He played the instrument so nicely, that in the middle of the show suddenly Devano appeared on the stage with a dance that had been prepared. Keysa could not hide his happiness when Devano performed on stage. With a fluffy smile, Keysa who was still focused on the instrument played by him glanced at Devano. 

Devano also danced to the rhythm of the cello played by Keysa. Devano's performance seemed to match Keysa's cello performance, leading the audience to praise them as well. 

"What the fuck?" At that moment, Liza stared towards the stage with eyes that were already flaming red, a glint of anger clearly visible there. He did not accept Keysa received more praise from the audience and what makes him very angry is Devano who could even dance—help Keysa. 

Meanwhile, Ezra sees Keysa on stage wearing a mask as if looking at Faya. "Why can I think like this? It's obvious she's Keysa not Faya" he murmured very slowly. Curse his head which even thinks Keysa is Faya. "Maybe it's because I miss him so much" he continued. A moment later, Ezra could not help but laugh when he saw Devano's appearance.
