Ana walks home to her hostel. While drinking his favorite canned drink. Ana remembered the words Neysa had still lingered in her mind.
"Why should someone like him harass me like that?" said budging.
"How should I teach him a lesson?" muttered.
His emotions were growing when he remembered. Thrown the empty can with anger, and soar high.
Pangs!
"Aargha!!" scream someone.
Ana was surprised by the voice. It was unexpected that the can was thrown right on the head of a man. The man glared at me from a distance.
I'm sorry!! I said stiffly shaking and running as fast as possible.
I dare not look and keep running. I heard footsteps from behind trying to catch up with me. My breath almost stopped because I ran for no matter how many kilometers I traveled.
"Hey you, stop right there!!" shouted the man who was also panting.
I tried to escape and find a place to hide. I got into an apartment parking lot and a lot of cars there. I hid in the back of the car and peeked at the man who was still chasing me.
"Hoshis... Hoshs... Hoshs. Where's the girl?Why run so fast."
His eyes scanned around looking for the figure of the woman. He set his eyes on the back of a black BMW. He saw the shadow of the woman he was looking for.
He slowly approached without a sound. Ana was surprised to see it. His eyes and mouth were wide open not expecting the man to be right in front of him.
Ana stood up tremblingly, she looked at the man. There was a small scratch on his handsome face.
"I'm sorry" I said slowly.
"Why am I sorry now? Why did you run away after throwing me with your can!" said annoyed.
"Yes I know," said ana flat.
"You know what? If you knew why you ran like you saw a ghost?" said annoyed. The man did not think of the woman in front of him. Ana just fell silent unresponsive.
"You have to take responsibility!" the man said firmly.
Ana straightened her face.
"What responsibility? I just accidentally threw it," Ana said in surprise.
"You're not hurt, either. Why should I take responsibility? I've apologized to you, isn't that enough?" ana said she didn't want to lose.
The man smiled slightly and brought his face closer to Ana.
"You don't see this?" he said it showed a small scratch on Ana.
"Yes. I saw it, but it was just a small scratch!" firmly Ana.
"You need to take responsibility!" said cynical.
Ana sighed as she opened her bag and took out a few pieces of money. Ana thrust it at the man.
"It's more than enough to buy plaster on your little wound" says ana Ketus.
Hahahaha ..the man laughed amusedly at the amount of money Ana had thrust at him.
"Are you poor? That money you said was more than enough?" said mock.
Ana threw the money right on the man's face furiously.
"Yes, I am poor! Then why? Or are you disgusted by poor people like me? Do you know how hard it is to get this money? Maybe someone like you who can only ask your parents, will never be able to feel it!" ana's anger surged.
The man smiled wryly and approached Ana. Her hand was about to grab Ana but Ana stayed away.
"Retreat! Don't come any step closer!" gertak Ana's. The man remained silent and Ana left without a word.
"She's a fierce girl, but she's very sweet." she said with a happy smile.
"Crack down!! What's that sound?" tanyanya.
The sound came from his shoes stepping on a heart-shaped pendant and there was a photo of a little girl being hugged warmly by her mother. But the photo is very outdated probably because this object has long eaten age.
"It seems to belong to the fierce girl earlier," he said guessing.
The man again observes the pendant with an initial behind the photo.
BJP...
I don't know what the abbreviation means, the man looked at the girl from a distance.
"May we meet again another time fierce girl," he said hoping with a happy smile.

My eyes opened slowly and I saw a white light shining brightly greeting.
Behind that light, I saw someone hiding among the other lights. He looked at me smiling gently at me.
Mothers... Mother...! Ana misses Mom... Ana cries hysterically and runs to hug Mom.
I held Mom so tight, Mom's hands gently stroked my hair. I looked at my mother's face, which was so warm and so missed every day.
Mom's hand wiped my tears that poured down my cheeks. Not a word came out of his mouth.
But I felt his gaze so calm, as if giving me great strength. Mother smiled back at me and disappeared the blink of an eye in my arms.
Mothers... Mom, don't go ma'am... Ana wants to be with Mom... Mama! I woke up from my sleep, I woke up and cried again.It felt so painful because it was all just a dream.
🎵Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehow
The song A Thousand Years, Christina Perri echoes melodious filled the room. The mobile phone ringing sign reads. My cell phone is located on the table. My friend Neysa's name.
"Hay Ney what's wrong?" my many.
"Therefore I have good news for you" exclaimed Neysa.
"What's Ney about?" manya curious.
"In my office this morning, I got information that the company is now in need of CS girls, with fixed contracts and a 30% salary increase every year" Neysa explained.
"really? It's good news Ney, I'm so happy" I said with a big smile.
"Yes, I'm glad I could help you. Hurry to the office right now to hand over your CV file" Neysa pointed out.
"Okay. I'll be there as soon as I can. I'm so grateful to Ney! you're the best friend" I said in praise.
"It's Ana, you know that we're like brothers in need. I was worried that you would be depressed because of unemployment and always chased by the moneylender thugs," Neysa said worriedly.
"Yes you're right, I'm tired of facing those thugs. All right wait for me (fifteen minutes) to get there," I explained and hung up.
Neysa and I were friends when we were 4 years old. So is my family. Neysa's father was my father's business partner when my father worked in one of the first private offices.
My life is not as good as Neysa who has higher education and a decent life. I was about to be adopted by them, but I refused. Because they're really nice to me and I don't want to make them miserable because of me. And I decided to live independently.

Ana prepares herself as possible for an interview test and hopes to pass this time.
Although only CS girl is the most important job is halal with a higher salary than other companies.
Ana is so excited today. I looked at my face in front of the mirror and smiled sweetly.
"So you can definitely get past the spirit!" I said to encourage myself.
Ana prepares several items such as cell phones, lipstick, ballpoint pens, and purses into a bag. Ana is looking for my beloved pendant necklace that my father gave me when I was little.
Ana reached out and scrambled back the contents of my bag and the locket was missing. Ana panics and continues to look for him. Ana searched my room but I still couldn't find it.
His phone rang again, Neysa called me back.
"Ana where are you? I've been waiting for you (thirty minutes), but your nostrils are not visible at all" Neysa said confusedly.
"God! I'm sorry, Neysa, I'll be there right now!" I said hurry and cut off the phone.
Ana forgot about time because she was busy looking for my locket. Ana immediately ran towards the bus stop. Unfortunately, the bus that goes to Neysa's office route has passed (thirty minutes) ago.
"I'm really late!" Ana tried to think fast.
Looks like a black Lamborghini sports car will pass through me and Ana has a reckless idea.
Ana runs across the road right in front of the car and is almost hit.
Cait!! The car rang loudly. The car stopped in front of me.
Ana takes a desperate action to ride the car and quickly reach Neysa's office. The driver was no less surprised by me.
But Ana is no stranger to the driver's face. The driver got out of the car and it turned out that the driver was the man who had harassed him in the store a few days ago.
