Noa and Cruz sat in front of their camping van quietly. Enjoy the afternoon coffee they made together.
"When have you loved camping?", asked Cruz.
" Since Junior High. I went camping to calm myself down" Noa replied.
Cruz nodded. "Other than camping what do you like?", asked Cruz.
"I like to swim, watch TV and hmm... I love to eat" Noa replied casually making Cruz laugh out loud.
" What do you like?" asked Noa.
" You" Cruz answered without thinking.
Noa fell silent then smiled awkwardly. The camera continued to highlight the two of them conversing. " I'm serious Cruz" Noa said staring at Cruz.
Cruz looked at Noa meaningfully and replied, "I love nature because when I'm in the middle of it I feel healthy and have no burden on my head" Cruz replied. " The blowing wind carries all the weight of my mind, the singing of birds comforts me and when it rains I feel calm and comfortable" Cruz continued.
Noa heard Cruz in him. " Do you like nature?" said Noa.
" Yes.. Of course", Cruz smiled looking at the cruz again.
A little misbehaving Noa immediately said "What if we cook dinner?" Noa said.
" Come. I'm also getting hungry" Cruz replied.
Cruz and Noa began to busy preparing the grill and the food they would cook.

Christian sat in his office meeting room chair and stared at something in his hand. Like trying to make a decision.
" Does Bran Ambassador have to be this artist?", Christian put the map on the table.
There's a picture of Cruz there and his profile. The slide screen in front of him also appears to bring up the superstar's profile.
" Yes sir, Cruz is one of the idols that are in love at the moment. And it fits perfectly with our products now. To attract young people" replied the presenter.
Christian was silent for a moment. Then he nodded in agreement. "When will this partnership be proposed?", Christian asked again.
"Soonly, as soon as possible sir. Because Cruz is filming the Veriety show Couple Star, the meeting with his management will be held early next week" replied one of the meeting participants.
" Okay" answered Christian. " What's Couple Star?", Christian asked again.
"That's an event that is in the interest of young people today sir. The rating is very good. The show their couple married on this variety show then lived together for 6 months", explained Christian's secretary.
" Some are right to get married after the event" continued another.
Christian nodded in understanding. After the meeting was over, Christian opened the event in the meeting.
It was ordinary at first. When Christian saw Noa on the screen, his face immediately changed.
"So this is why they are so familiar", Christian speaks for himself.
Christian takes his cell phone and calls Noa. Three days later, Noa picked up the phone.
" Yes Hello", Noa replied.
" Hi Noa, it's me Tian", Tian speaking.
"Oh, Hai Tian. How are you?", Noa spoke.
" Good . We just met 2 days ago and you asked me?", Tian chuckled.
Noa laughed at the end of the phone. " Yes, I'm sorry. I'm just surprised you called all of a sudden", Noa said honestly.
A smile spread across Tian's face. " What are you doing now?", Tian asked.
" I'm working for money" Noa replied with a small laugh.
" Okay, hardworking lady. Do you have time tonight? I want to take you to dinner together" Tian said.
" In what order?", asked Noa again.
" Oh yeah. Happy birthday. All right I'll come" said Noa cheerfully.
Tian breathed a sigh of relief. " Then I'll send you the address later" Tian said.
" Okay" Noa answered and disconnected the phone.
Tian put his phone on the table. This time he had to get Noa. Maybe this was another chance he had given her to reach for her.
During school Tian could only look at him from afar without daring to reveal anything. Now his confidence is higher and his desire to have Noa is huge.
"I have to get it this time. Gotta", Tian determined.

" Tonight I have an appointment" Noa told Cruz, who called her to ask Noa to come to the studio.
"What promise? Same who? Where?", Cruz began to be protective.
" Christian was my friend at High School. You are mulu. Anyway I can't come to your studio tonight. I promised my friend" Noa replied.
" But this is Noa's job. Your debt must be in the air, right?", Cruz reminded Noa.
"Next time, Cruz. I went there at most just to fall asleep and order a meal. Snacking, waiting for you. Long-long I fat your country", Noa nagged.
" What if we take Milli to the salon" Cruz starts to figure out how.
" No, Milli went to the salon last week" Noa replied quickly.
" Well, then, do we eat ice cream? or how about a walk to the beach" Cruz started ngaco.
" No, it's late afternoon. Nagapain to the beach. Anyway today I can't, I promised my friend. Yes already. Bye", Noa hung up unilaterally.
Noa could still hear Cruz calling his name when he was about to hang up.
" Oss... This kid is so noisy. Anyway what the hell suddenly fussy like a boy", Noa misuh-misuh.
Message from Christian, he told me the address of the restaurant they were going to tonight.
Tian: Restaurant Y, 8pm. I'll pick you up, right?
Noa smiled reading the message.
Noa: No need. I'll go there myself. I have to go to the office first.
Noa then walked to the closet and began to choose clothes that can be used to go to the office and at the same time to the restaurant.
Noa's phone rang again, Cleo's name on it.
"Hello", Noa picked up the phone.
" Hello bestie. Shooping yuk", Cleo went straight to the point.
" I can't Cle. I have an appointment tonight", Noa replied as she continued picking clothes.
" O wow, whose promise? A cruz? ", asked Cleo.
" No. Same Christian. She invited me to dinner", Noa explained and decided to wear one of her blush.
"Whaaaat? Uh crazy crazy... How can you not tell me the same? So you guys are pedecates? Cleo guessed the origin.
"So, we're just regular friends. Nothing" Noa asserted.
" Noa, this is your chance to get a soul mate. Christian is less what try? The CEO, rich, humorous and again he's cute and tall" Cleo explained as if Christian was his brother.
Noa smiled. " Yes Cle, but not necessarily he likes me. I don't want what used to happen again. Embarrassed ah", Noa reminded Cleo about the tragedy of the cendol.
"Yes, haha... Yes, it was a successful dinner. Hopefully after dinner you get married" Cleo hangs up.
Noa stared at her phone with a sewot "Hah, Cleo base", maki Noa quietly.
