Rafa walked outside the classroom holding his bag, he stepped towards Bayu and Satria who stood on the sidelines while folding their hands. Both are looking at students who are still sports because the bell home has not rang, only their classes have been dissolved thanks to the teacher who went home first.

"Gue will not participate in training," said Rafa who made both of them immediately glance.

"That's! The Devan didn't come in, you didn't practice. How are we going? How ... Woy! How're we?!" asked Satria rowily.

"Catalinlah, again males also me." Bayu exhaled a rough breath. He then set foot to go home. Just two steps back, he looked back. "Kabarin the children of Sat!"

"Dear, I tell the children" replied Satria who was heard amused by her two best friends.

"Dude!" Then Bayu passed. He was not in the mood, he felt the need for Devan because there was nothing more reliable to lead their basketball game. However, after he tried to call Devan Daritadi, there was no result.

"Gue first, Sat."

Satria nodded at Rafa for a moment, then re-typed on his phone. Send a message to another basketball kid to postpone the exercise until an indefinable time. Hopefully soon.

Rafa walked over, he wanted to see Vallen immediately because he had to talk about something, but someone approached him.

"Rafa, come!" take Ina who is nodding vigorously.

Rafa did not look at Ina at all. He even straightened his face to look at the picket gate in front of him. His brain then thinks for a moment, then nods lightly while clearing his throat.

Vallen, the girl did not go to school not because of body ache, but because of heartache. Bad behavior is indeed, it's just that Vallen feels heavy if he meets Ina and talks as if everything is fine. The only reason that could be forced to speak was that her body felt weak.

"Waw," amazed Vallen when he saw the interior here, very different from the other part of the house which is dominated by cream-painted walls only, in this room there is a kind of wooden interior that coats the walls.

But in the midst of that amazement, something struck Vallen. There are so many photos of Mira there, from the time she was little even to the photo of Mira smiling on the hospital bed. Bi Adab is arranging some more photos that he brought. Probably from Hilman's room.

"It's the mistress's music room, Non," Bi Adab said as she wiped the photo.

"Does mom like to play the piano?"

Bi Adab smiled slightly. "Yes, madam likes it, Den Rafa is also taught, so great he's not playing it."

Vallen.

"Non Vallen can?" ask Bi Adab back.

"It can be a little, it was tutoring, but not continued."

Bi Adab responded. After that, the woman kept one last photo, then left the room.

This room became quiet, left Vallen alone. The girl went around the side of the wall looking around. One by one photos of Mira he traced well. And without realizing what he did instead allowed all his memories to be twisted in the mind.

"Mother ...."
