"Yes also yes bun, why should you go all the way to the village huh his apprentice ?" Ana becomes curious, why Aryan did not choose an internship at her own school which incidentally closer to home and campus.

"Yeah, aja aja kak Aryan want a new atmosphere bun," continued Ana thinking about the possibility that might happen. "Yes, Ana went back to the room first yes bun, want to take a shower." Pamit Ana got up from her seat about to leave the dining room.

"You don't eat first ?" asked her mother before Ana stepped out of the dining room.

"Later first aja mother, Ana want to take a shower and change clothes first mother, Ana's body feels sticky" Reject Ana smooth. He continued his journey up the stairs to his room on the second floor of his house.

Flashbacks

Ana ran across the street in front of her house. Still wearing a blue white uniform, he immediately entered the gate of the second-floor house after seeing the high school boy with his motorbike enter the courtyard of the house.

"Sir Aryan..." His shout called out to the boy who got off his motorbike.

"Eh Ana, what's up ?" aryan asked after getting off the bike.

"There's something Ana wants to tell her sister" said Ana, who was standing next to Aryan.

"Come with me." Without Ana's approval, Aryan pulls Ana's wrist. He invites Ana to sit on a bench in the middle of the garden behind Aryan's house.

"Quick say what's up !" Urge Aryan to let Ana immediately say the purpose of her arrival.

"Tomorrow is my graduation day" Ana starts her point.

"Yes, I know that," Aryan cut quickly.

"Don't cut it first, why the hell ?" Ana snorted in annoyance.

"Hahaha, I've continued" Aryan laughed, her hands busy pinching Ana's cheeks.

"iii... Sick tau kak," Ana rubbed her cheek. "When I graduate, if my grades are good, I want to treat Aryan's brother, whatever Aryan's brother wants." Cerocos Ana explained her point with sparkling eyes.

"Seriously?, anything I want ?" ask Aryan. Ana nodded her head convincingly. "Review of samo boong." Aryan cried to Ana.

"Where has Ana boong been to Aryan's sister." He said as he leaned against his back on the side of the garden chair. "Boong is a sin, brother." Further.

"Yeah, believe ustadzah. Oh yeah I want to point something at you," reached into the pocket of his white shirt Aryan pulled out a white necklace with a star-shaped pendant.

"Waaah... That's really good, sister ?" asked Ana amazed by the beauty of the locket. His hand was outstretched wanting to touch the pendant. But Aryan immediately grasped the locket tightly not wanting Ana to hold it.

"Huh" snorted Ana saw Aryan's behavior. "Such an elite spy, what was it that was pointed at try ?" dumel Ana glanced sharply at Aryan.

"This can not be careless touch" said Aryan. "I want my pendant to someone very special in my heart." Aryan said dreaming about his intentions.

Ana just flicked her lips listening to Aryan's words. "Who is he, brother ? aunt Fatma ?" ask Ana.

"Iwai... Ngawur aja lo, she is a good girl, cute, pinter naji, diligent in prayer, her achievements are many, friendly, and another she likes to help others even though she does not know." Cerocos Aryan with enthusiasm.

"I'll give you this next day, as a gift on a special day." Added Aryan.

Hearing all that, made Ana's heart feel tight, like there was a large chunk of rock that hit right in her heart. Without feeling her tears just fall. Realizing that Ana immediately wiped her tears so as not to be discovered by Aryan.

"What do you think of ?" ask Aryan again. He turned his head to the voiceless Ana to respond to his story.

"Good brother, he's gonna love it." Ana replied with a bitter smile. She tried her hardest to hold back so that her voice would not tremble as it held back the crying.

Aryan smiled proudly in response to Ana's words. Without him realizing, that his words had hurt the heart of someone who had now been beside him.

"Oh yes, sister, Ana had to sneak home, Ana forgot that she had been told to go to the front minimarket." Without waiting for an answer from Aryan, Ana immediately rushed to leave Aryan in the park.

"Why rush ? be careful Ana," cried Aryan who was confused by Ana's change of attitude. "It's so weird." Aryan did not bother, he immediately put the pendant in his pocket and took his bag and entered the house.

*****

Aryan looked at the necklace with the star pendant in his hand. Sitting in a lounge chair on the balcony of his room has been his favorite place since long ago while looking at thousands of smiling stars around the moon.

"If you hadn't left in the past, this necklace would've been beautifully wrapped around Ana's neck." Guman Aryan while continuing to look at the necklace.

Ja. The pendant will actually be given to Ana on the day of her graduation. The day that Aryan said was special for Ana. Behind the pendant there is an engraving with the name "Aryan & Ana" so that when Ana wanted to touch it was not allowed by Aryan. Because he was afraid of being found out. However, before Aryan could give it away, Ana was gone. And Aryan at that time did not know about the reason. So that the pendant is still stored and has not had time to give to the owner should.

"Goddess..." Suddenly the middle-aged woman patted him on the shoulder and immediately sat down beside him. She is Fatma, Mama Aryan.

"When are you going to give it to me, baby ?" tanya Fatma glanced at the hand of Aryan who was holding a necklace.

"Aryan was meeting Ana Ma." Said Aryan still staring at the necklace.

"Oh yeah ? where's dear ?" fatma asked enthusiastically while looking at her son.

"The place of Aryan's apprenticeship." Aryan paused on his sentence. "Aryan had known since a few months ago Ma, that Ana continued school there. Therefore, Aryan decided to choose an internship there following Dito." Aryan told Fatma.

"Nusa Bangsa SMA ?" tanya Fatma made sure.

"Yes Ma, it turns out that all this time Ana returned to her mother's hometown." Aryan added, there was a smile of happiness on his lips.

Ana's sudden departure makes Aryan lose her spirit and smile. Because Ana is the spirit as well as the first love for Aryan. However, Ana never noticed it and without any goodbyes she went away from him. This makes Aryan hurt and lost the spirit in his life.

But one time, when Aryan drove Dito to survey the location before starting his internship, Aryan accidentally saw Ana who was running into the classroom. Aryan knew very well if it was Ana, because at that time he was very clear to see Ana who was only a few meters away. However, because it looks like Ana is in a hurry so unaware of Aryan's presence around her. So from that moment Aryan decided to take his internship at Nusa Bangsa High School.

"Mama's glad you finally got to meet Ana again baby, it's been a while since you've seen this smile." Say Fatma while touching Aryan's dimple with her finger. "Mama knows Ana is your spirit dear, Ana can always publish this smile, and only Ana can eliminate it. If you truly love her, pursue your love and do not hurt her dear. Because the woman's heart is easily hurt, even though she tries to cover it from the man with a smile, but she still feels the pain." Fatma's advice to her son.

Aryan simply nodded and smiled warmly at Fatma. " Now it's late, fast sleep there, tomorrow bad luck lo, he said to move the same boarding house Dito." Fatma's orders pat Aryan on the back before leaving.

"Yes Ma." Aryan replied briefly and immediately entered his room. Don't forget he closed the door before going to rest because the air tonight was so cold.

The sound of birds singing welcomed the emergence of the sun on the eastern horizon. A clear blue sky with no cloud overcast adds to the sunny weather this morning.

Ana is ready with a full uniform and a backpack on her back. After putting on his shoes, he immediately walked out of the room. One by one down the stairs until the steps stop at the dining table.

The dining room is the same as usual. When Ana arrived at the dining room there was Fariz and Ida sitting there. Without a second thought, Ana immediately sat herself in the chair next to Ida.

"My father's cuteness is neat and handsome gini." Tempted Ana at Fariz with a grinning smile.

"Well, your father was handsome, baby, did you just realize it ?" Fariz said to be proud of himself.

"Ah yes, my father is the most handsome, eleven twelve ama bang Zein, right bun ?" tanya Ana raised her eyebrows glancing at Ida while her hands were busy smearing bread with her favorite chocolate jam.

"Ouh Zein Malik ranks handsome men in the world huh?, yes obviously dong your father is undoubtedly handsome." Reply Fariz with a cocky mode that is again on.

"Ah not dad." Ana got up from her seat while eating the bread she had finished smearing jam. "That's bang Zain-nudin the front-house greengrocer." Ana replies after swallowing her bread chews, and soon flees from her father's tantrums.

"Hey Anaa, where are you going ? the child has no courtesy to the parents." Fariz's screams echoed throughout the dining room.

Ana just laughed at Fariz's voice which she had managed to make irritated. "Ana's leaving, mom, dad. Assalamualaikum ?". Shouted Ana from her home garage after successfully turning on her motorcycle engine.

While in the dining room, Ida just giggled to see the behavior of the child and her husband."The waalaikumsalam." Answer Ida. "Udah, be patient well, you'll be old soon." Then Ida comforted her husband who was being irritated.

"Haduuh, have a child his hobby is to know his father." Fariz replied that ended with laughter considering the behavior of the princess only wayangnya.

Fariz Ilyasa is an ophthalmologist. Someone who was serving as Ana's father for seventeen years ago, now works at a hospital in the city of Malang. Today he looks good because he already has an eye surgery schedule at the hospital where he works this morning. Because the distance of the hospital is quite far, so he must leave earlier than usual so as not to be late to the destination.

Arriving at school, Ana immediately parked her motorbike in the motor park. He immediately walked out of the parking lot towards his classroom. While on the way, Ana is shocked by someone who suddenly slaps her shoulder. Ana immediately looked over. And found Aryan who was smiling widely beside him.

"Sir Aryan, make me surprised." Said Ana to Aryan who was just that grimace.

"Good morning Ana ?" sweep it with his trademark smile. "Good morning, brother". Answer Ana. He also stepped up his steps that had stopped because of Aryan. While talking about unimportant things with Aryan, it did not feel Ana had arrived in front of her class.

"Yetoo..." Suddenly Dimas appeared from class 11 IPA 1 beside class Ana.

"Hay Dim." Answer Ana. "Wait, why are you here at this hour Dim ?" asked Ana while facing Dimas with a suspicious look.

But, what was stared at was just a whimper while scratching his head that did not itch. "Hehe... I pinjem PR math lo doong..." Dimas said with a blink of his eyes.

"Ouh, so you leave in the morning because you want to find a cheat huh ? I don't have math today." Ana replied lying. "Ah boong lo, I know after your break there's a math hour. Yes kaan ?" Said Dimas again.

"Udaahh come here..." Force Dimas while pulling Ana's hand towards her classroom. "Hoy... Slowly doong, uh" Ana hit Dimas' shoulder hard.

The interaction was not separated from Aryan's view. Seeing this made the morning air that should be cool, suddenly felt the heat that Aryan felt. Seeing Ana so familiar with Dimas made Aryan feel uncomfortable. Aryan who felt dikuekin just stared at the datatr both before finally deciding to leave without saying goodbye to both.

Seriate....
