Ferdo sat with Ayunda on the bench of the amusement park, still holding Ayunda's hand.

"I once promised myself that I would only go to this place with the people I love" said Ferdo, who gave Ayunda a gasp.

Ferdo looked at Ayunda with a smile. "I went with my parents because they loved me so much. I'm currently going to this park with a woman..." Ferdo spoke without taking his eyes off Ayunda. Their beads met, as if revealing something to each other.

Ayunda averted her gaze as she felt her increasingly irregular heartbeat. "Sister, let's just go home" asked Ayunda to cover up her nervousness.

"I hope that woman has the same feelings as me" said Ferdo still not let go of his gaze from Ayunda.

Did he say his feelings? Just talking about the people I love. Ayunda grumbled inside her.

Ferdo was still staring at Ayunda, as if waiting for an answer. In case Ferdo asks nothing, not even expressing feelings.

"Sister, it's too late. We better go home." Ayunda was still trying to dodge Ferdo's gaze.

"I like you, do you want to be my girlfriend?" asked Ferdo, who was impatiently waiting for Ayunda, because he was insensitive with his words.

Ayunda looked at Ferdo seriously to give a pause, in order to calm his raging heart. He tried to relax, but his heart was soaring with excitement.

"Sorry, Brother " said Ayunda hanging his words. Ferdo was immediately bowed in lethargy, because of his unrequited love.

"Sorry, sister.I have not finished my words, you know", said Ayunda. Ferdo looked up again when he heard Ayunda's words. Ayunda looked seriously at Ferdo's face waiting for his words. "I'm sorry, sister.I can't refuse Brother's love." Ayunda continued to make Ferdo happy, and spontaneously embraced Ayunda.

"Eh, sorry, sorry, I'm so happy" he said with a happy smile. Ayunda felt the same way. She smiled happily at her new boyfriend. Not only is she a new boyfriend, but she's dating for the first time.

Siska is still waiting for Ferdo's return. He had contacted Ferdo dozens of times using Winda's cell phone, but Ferdo did not pick up his phone. As if Ferdo knew, that the one who called him was not Vinda.

"Why are you still holding my phone?" ask Winda who remains annoyed with the selfish attitude of the cousin.

Siska replied by staring dislike at Winda. "Curtain, I just borrowed it instead of stealing it!" Siska clucked in annoyance. "Again my cell phone is better than this", he snidely boasted.

"If so, use your own phone", replied Vinda by snatching her phone from Siska's hand which made Siska gasp in shock.

"You know yourself, my phone ran out of power, and I forgot to bring a charger" he said with a frown.

"Yes, but my phone is not an expensive phone! So you wouldn't be fit to use a phone like this. I'm afraid you'll be allergic", ledek Winda while leaving the beleaguered Siska. "Don't forget to close the door!" she shouted from behind the door of her room, which signaled for her cousin to come home soon.

Siska was silent for a moment. "doors... Meanin?" said Siska who was still thinking about the words of Winda.

"Did you kick me out?" Siska replied by shouting when she realized what the word of Vinda meant, but there was no reply from Vinda.

Siska walked outside with an annoyed face, leaving the Winda apartment without saying goodbye to her.

He went out of the room like a thief. Circulating his gaze throughout the room that can be captured by the netra, to find the whereabouts of Siska. He began to step out of the room and search all the rooms, even to every corner of his house. It is certain that Siska has left her apartment.

"Ah, thank goodness. He's gone", said Winda with relief.

Drrttt.

"Call, Fer. What's up?" Winda immediately replied without having to wait long. Then Ferdo replied.

"Huh, that much? But I haven't contacted you at all. Maybe Siska, because she was using my phone", replied Winda.

"Oh, I'm lucky then, because my phone was in silent", said Ferdo from across the phone.

"Oh", replied Winda. "Is there anything else you want to ask?" Winda deliberately wanted to immediately disconnect the phone, because he was waiting for a phone call from the lover.

"Nothing else. Okay if so, bye", said Ferdo. Then Winda disconnected the phone after replying to Ferdo.

"Siska is very troublesome, why she never changes, anyway", said Winda who began to get sultry with the attitude of the cousin.

Chequek.

Ayunda and Ferdo arrive at the apartment. They immediately walked up to the mother and Adrian who were both pensive.

"Assynoltom... " Ayunda said his greetings when he had just sat on the sofa with his mother and Adrian followed by Ferdo.

"Waalaikumsalam. "reply to the mother when her daydream is gone. Adrian also answered Ayunda's greetings. "Gee, your daughter came home with a happy face. Mother is happy if Yunda is like this. Mommy must always pass the permission, if it's Ferdo's son who stepped out Yunda" said the mother who was happy.

"Eits, but not with me" Adrian said when Ferdo was just about to reply to his mother.

"Why?" ask them almost simultaneously.

"Hahaha, I was attacked three at a time", cried Adrian while laughing.

"Yes, why son?" ask the mother who is impatient to know the reason.

"Mother." said Adrian gave a pause to his speech. "Ferdo is engaged" said Adrian with doubts that made the mother wide.

"Can't! Yunda can't be someone else's fiancee", exclaimed the mother suddenly, which made Ferdo sad. Adrian who accidentally did it, regretted saying it to the mother.

"But it's just Bun's fiancee. And it also happened because of his grandfather's insistence. Moreover, Siska is also still in touch with her boyfriend." Adrian tried to explain to the mother, but the mother did not want to accept the explanation.

"I'm gonna call off my engagement, Bun. Because I don't like it, I just like Mother's daughter" said Ferdo who tried to gain the mother's trust.

"Just like, if your engagement is off, it must be because of Yunda. Mother does not want Yunda to be the third person, the wrestler of the future husband of people", the mother replied that made Ferdo, Ayunda and Adrian gasp. They seem to run out of words when they will say the mother's words.

"Fer, there's something I want to talk to you about" Adrian whispered. "For your problems, let me explain to you later" he said to calm Ferdo.

Ferdo nodded his head. "Alright", he replied. Then he followed Adrian's steps, after leaving Ayunda and the mother.

Adrian and Ferdo are in Adrian's room. Adrian impatiently told the problem he was facing with regard to the situation of the father. Ferdo was wide-eyed, when he had just listened to Adrian. His heart spurred quickly, as it held back long-suspending emotions.

"How's it?" adrian asked with a little urgency.

Ferdo shook his mind again through the memories that have passed almost 13 years, but never in his memory.
