“Go now?” asked Raka who was already beside Reva.
“Hem...” sahut Reva who just glanced at a glance.
His feet stepped confidently.
Raka started driving to Adiyaksa Corp. Occasionally he glanced at Reva who looked busy with a square object in his hand.
“Re,..”
"Hem..” Reva starts putting her phone away and looks at Raka. “Why?”
“Jeremy... Like the same lo?” asked Raka doubtfully.
“Iya.” Sahut Reva without hesitation. He looked back at the crowded street in front of him.
“Looks like you guys are also good friends right, He most often ngajak lo jalan.” continued Raka who returned to focus with the road in front of him. His hands seemed to be tightly holding the wheel. I don't know, his chest hurts to hear his own words.
“Lo know where he most often goes with me?”
“From...” Raka rubbed her own nape. He was confused as to what kind of answer to give.
“Group beetles right?” Reva looked back at Raka with a smile.
“Lo tau?”
Reva just nodded. “That group created Jeremy.” Reva leaned back her body casually. His breath was soft. “He was like a farmer who made me a fish pond. He nawarin men-cowok to lure me, but if there are things that can make me sad, wretched or hurt, he will be the first person to come nolongin me. He said that the way to get sick from love is to find new love, hahahaha... He gave me a walk, but he himself was dead-end and in pain.” Reva brightly with her smile.
“Why do you gag soin she new love?” It felt like Raka had just felt her heart break hearing her own question..
Reva just shook her head. “Gue wants him to always be a friend. I gag if one day I am forced to have to hugging and menggelupain him because of one mistake. And the mistake was because I gag had no feelings for him.” This time his face looks sad.
In his heart, he prefers not to open the door for Jeremy because he cannot promise someday his heart will belong to Jeremy.
It was very desirable for Raka to hold Reva's hand which twisted each other. He never knew how deep the wound that Reva had felt but if Reva now chose to be alone, certainly not because of the easy thing and he could pass.
Reva turned her head, Raka tried to smile and refocus on the streets.

Late in the afternoon, 6 students who were going to intern at Adiyaksa Corp looked to be waiting in front of the HRD room. 1 student was undergoing an interview, there was not the slightest sound of conversation in there.
Reva who was sitting next to Raka looked a little riled up. Many times he breathed his breath out violently. He looked at Raka who was seriously looking at her advanced mobile phone. His face was calm, no worries at all.
The door of the interview room opened, looking a man coming out with his pale face. Reva confirmed his sitting position, imagining how complicated the interview was inside.
“Where is Dimas, launch?” ask a girl who looks familiar with the man named Dimas.
Dimas was nodding, but his face was still lethargic.
“She squirms this tattoo, whereas she says if she wants to intern here must look neat and gag there can be a tattoo.” Follow him in frustration.
“Ya anyways use tattoos all. Why did gag get removed first anyway?”
Chat after chat continued to roll between Dimas and the girl. Reva who slightly heard their conversation immediately tidied up her appearance. He tried to tie his hair to make it look more neat.
One by one his pocket he rogoh to find his hair tie, but nil, he did not find it. Raka took the handkerchief that was in her pants pocket. He folded it into a triangle and folded it until it resembled a rope.
“This, use this.” Raka hands her handkerchief to Reva.
“Thanks...” Reva immediately tied her hair with Raka's handkerchief.
Raka leaned her body against the wall, she could clearly see Reva's white neck that looked level with her hair tied to a ponytail. For some reason, the corner of his heart felt unwilling if others saw him. But this time, he had no choice but to let it go.

Reva is done with the interview. Unlike Raka who came out of the room expressionlessly, a sweet smile was clearly drawn on Reva's face.
“Currently?” asked Raka who immediately stood up to welcome Reva.
Raka just smiled looking at Reva's behavior which was so adorable to her.
Reva and Raka did get their last interview and just finished by nightfall. Waiting is not only aching but also making hungry, as Reva feels today.
They walked to the parking lot. Several pairs of male eyes glanced at Reva who was engrossed in telling stories during her interview. Raka really did not like the gaze that was fixed on Reva. He pulls the handkerchief that Reva uses to tie his hair and makes Reva's hair unravel and cover part of his face.
“Jeez Raka, why did you pull my hair anyway?” Reva immediately tidied up her messy hair.
“Kalo lama later handkerchief I smell shampoo lo.” Seru Raka while running towards his car.
“Haiisshh emang lo ngeselin yaaa!” exclaiming Reva who ran after Raka, Raka just chuckled at the annoyed face of Reva.
“Eat where?” asked Raka who was pairing a circular safety belt on her stomach.
“Whatever matters rice.” Sahut Reva smiles.
Raka was silent for a moment, she felt familiar with the speech. He stared at the two black beads belonging to Reva, his mind spinning somewhere.
“Why?” Reva touched her own face as Raka looked at her.
Raka just shook her head and smiled. “Gag pa-pa, Okeeyy, according to the application..” timpal Raka who is said to be laughing Reva.

By midnight, Raka had just arrived at her house. The lights had already begun to be extinguished and were only illuminated by a small incandescent light in the corner of his spacious house. He walked to his room. He stretched his body repeatedly because his body felt very tired.
Raka turned the door handle of her room, a shadow sitting on the edge of her bed.
“Malem darling..” greet Niken who then put a photo of Raka on the table beside her bed.
“Malem mah, haven't slept?” a kiss landed on Niken's head.
“Wait for you to come home. How come malem really came home?’
“Iya mah, eat first same temen.” Sahut Raka while putting her watch on the table.
Niken just nodded. His eyes looked at the figure of the son who looked handsome with his formal clothes.
“You can meet Aunt Nida?” ask Niken who again grabbed a photo of little Raka who was sitting with a girl.
“Tante Nida has come home mah?” Raka sat next to Niken and looked at the photo in Niken's hand.
Niken nodded. “Daughter is also in indonesia.” Said Niken while staring at Raka.
Raka slid her body lazily on the bed. His eyes glared at the ceiling of his room.
“Mamah wants to meet aunt Nida if I want to see her daughter?” asked Raka lazily.
It sounded like Niken was breathing out violently. He rubbed Raka's hair which still looked neat.
“Honey, you know you really want to have a daughter in our family. Ever since he left, we both can't hope for him to come back. Why don't you get married so mamah gag lonely.” Bright Niken with his serious gaze.
Raka tried to get up and sat down next to Niken. He clasped the hand of the woman who became his first love and then kissed her gently.
“Mah, Raka is definitely getting married. But with Raka's own choice of girl. So for this, please love Raka trust to seek for herself. Raka wants to live with the woman who loves Raka as well as Raka loves. And Raka only wants to marry once in the lifetime of Raka.” Bright with a gaze full of earnestness.
“Kalo so, immediately know mamahin same girl. Or mamah will really choose a girl for you.” Sahut Niken with a gentle smile.
Raka just fell silent, he was not able to introduce any girl to the mother. He exhaled violently and looked back at his picture when he was with a 5-year-old girl who was smiling beautifully. Raka's cold face looked at him from the side, her heart rustling considering the innocent smile that a dozen years old could no longer see.
“Raka want to rest first mah. We chat again next time yes.” lead Raka while laying her body on the bed and closing her eyes with the right arm.
Niken just smiled. He gently rubbed Raka's shoulder and hurried away leaving the son alone in his daydream.
