A few months later...
After the graduation of Mentari and Azka, they both went straight to England. Both stayed at the Pak Raihan Apartment. The apartment was very spacious, having two rooms.
At first, they both wanted a different apartment. But Mr. Raihan forced them to stay together because he was worried about Mentari living alone, at least if they lived in the same apartment it would be safer.
Mentari and Azka with compulsion to accept Mr. Raihan's request, they decided to make an agreement to maintain the privacy of both. Prohibition of interfering in each other's affairs, they do not want if one of them meddles in the affairs of the other.
Mentari who now maintain attitudes towards men is no exception Azka. Azka could only accept Mentari's decision. Although it was hard for him to keep his distance from the woman he loved so much. Azka could only be grateful that at least she could see the face of her beloved girl.
“ That's your room, if you need something do not hesitate to call me,” Azka said while showing a room for Mentari.
“ Thank you, oya Ka, I want each other's privacy to be awake yes, we do not need to interfere with each other's affairs,” Mentari said.
Without waiting for Azka's answer, Mentari entered the room and immediately cleaned up her belongings. Azka just silently stared at the closed door of Mentari's room. There was a sense of disappointment in his heart, but in order to appreciate Mentari, he could only accept Mentari's decision.
After tidying things up and cleaning their bodies, the two went out for dinner. Mentari goes into the kitchen and makes regular fried rice and eggs, because in the kitchen there is no food. He served two dishes of fried rice.
“ Tonight eat this first, there is no groceries in the kitchen, tomorrow I will shop for groceries,” Mentari said while putting a plate of fried rice in front of Azka.
Azka just nodded and ate the fried rice in silence. Why is he so cold ? inner Azka while glancing at Mentari.
After they finished eating, Azka immediately took the dishes Mentari, “ Let me do the washing, you can wait for me first right, we talk about the rules in this apartment so that we are comfortable living together, we can,” Azka walks towards the sink and washes her dishes and Mentari dishes.
“ Do you have any suggestions for our convenience ?” ask Azka and sit next to Mentari.
“ I am not complicated, it is important we maintain each other's privacy,” Mentari said casually without looking at Azka.
“ Okay, but like papa's request, we will always go together, I will take you anywhere,” Azka said.
“ Alright,” Mentari nodded, however he did not know the ins and outs of this city.
“ Then, rest,” said Azka, Mentari then stood up and walked into her room.

This morning Mentari and Azka went to the Supermarket to buy groceries, they accidentally met Arga, their schoolmate in Junior High School first.
“ Hi, what are you guys doing here ?” tanya Arga patted Azka's shoulder. Azka and Mentari turned towards Arga.
“ As you can see, we are again buying groceries,” Azka replied while pointing at their grocery trolley.
“ You guys are married ?” ask Arga back. Azka just smiled.
“ We are here to take education only, we are not married,” replied Mentari with a smile.
“ Oh, you guys lecture where ?” ask Arga.
“ We register in the Division of Medicine in Oxford,” replied Mentari.
“ Really ? means we will meet again if that is so,” said Arga with enthusiasm.
“ Sorry yes Ga, we have to go back first,” Azka said after completing her payment at the cashier.
“ Okay, see you again,” said Arga while waving to Azka and Mentari.

“ Dance, I want to say,” hold Mentari who wants to go to the kitchen.
“ Tomorrow I will start part-time work,” said azka later.
“ Work ? what work ?”
Mentari was surprised, the article they had only two days in the city of Oxford, while Azka had never come out, why she had started work. Mind Mentari.
“ Waitters at Coffee Shop, the place is not far from here anyway, the coffee shop belongs to papa's friend's child,” explained Azka.
“ Tomorrow I talk to Michael, who knows there are still vacancies,” Azka said.

Azka chose to work part-time to help the cost of his college, he did not want to depend on the money sent by the father. Although he was here because he got a scholarship but he could not just rely on it.
Azka wants to live independently, living in this city requires a very large cost, but fortunately here she is very easy to get a part-time job that can help her finances during her stay here.
Because the lecture will be held next week, so to fill his free time, he took two shifts. But he has told the owner of the Coffee Shop that if his lecture starts, he can only take a sift afternoon.
“ Azka do you have a reliable girl acquaintance, I need a cashier, because my cashier who used to stop,”
“ Very coincidental, my friend also wants to list work here, I can make sure the person is honest, he's my papa friend's son,”
“ Okay, if so, you bring him here tomorrow,”
“ Okay,”
After finishing work, Azka walked back to her Apartment on foot, because her apartment was not far from her workplace. While walking, he saw someone he knew.
“ Maya,” shouted Azka while approaching Maya. Maya looks up and smiles at Azka.
“ What are you doing here Ka ?” ask Maya.
“ I was going to college in Oxford, I was from work,’ Maya only beroh ria heard Azka sayings.
“ Oya, what are you doing here ?”
“ My husband is also in college here, he is taking medicine,”
“ Really ? what's her name ? me and Mentari also take medicine,”
“ Arga, his name is Arga. Oya, Mentari is also in this city ?”
“ Yes, yes, then I go home first yes,”

Azka walked cheerfully, she whistled while singing a song. His mood tonight looks good. Everyone he met, greeted with his sweet smile. He hastened his steps towards the apartment.
Arriving at the Apartment, he saw Mentari who was watching her favorite Bollywood film. He approached Mentari and sat beside Mentari after taking off his shoes. Mentari turned to Azla, I don't know what made her smile, Mentari thought.
Why does the child keep smiling ?
Azka took the tv remote and intended to move the television broadcast, but her hand was immediately hit by Mentari, Mentari immediately glared at Azka, Azka who saw Mentari's gaze made goosebumps.
“ You've been watching, I also want to watch a football match,” Azka pull the tv remote, they both pull interesting, so they both fall from the sofa.
The mentor who fell on top of Azka was dumbfounded, he hurriedly stood up and dashed into the room, how embarrassed he was.
“ Tomorrow you come with me to work at my workplace yes,” Azka yells so Mentari can hear it.
“Created ?” Mentari suddenly came out again after hearing Azka's words. Azka gawked at Mentari.
“ Aich, is it really what you said just now ?” Azka nodded quickly.
Serem was also the gaze of the sun.
