Not felt, ospek for six days is over. Miana plans to go home tonight with a grabcar to keep it safe from the rain. The city of Jakarta does not know the season lately. The rain can come at any time. Like today, he was about to bring his dirty clothes to the laundry. But it was blocked by the mood of the mager because the rain was so heavy in the city. As a result, Miana packed her dirty clothes to take home and washed at home.
"So, home?" nika asked Miana, as she finished her bath. She put her dirty clothes on the basket and started to remove her headscarf.
"So, Nik. I have business to do at home." Miana looked at Nika who was stroking her hair.
Apparently from the bathroom Nika had to keep her hair covered. In the room, he reopened it. When Miana was about to ask him, it turned out that Nika had finished shampooing.
"Rushan?" look at Nika in the end. He put a towel on his shoulder, so that the remaining water on the hair does not hit his clothes.
"What is serious business?"
Miana sighed. "Yes," she said.
"What's up, Miana? Maybe I can help? Do I need to accompany you home?"
Now Miana looked at Nika. "Seriously, you want to accompany me?"
In the end, Nika was excited to come home with Miana. Moreover, he was only going to the capital this time. He once told a story of wanting to know the capital which he said often jammed it.
"Now, dong. I'll be able to see the capital directly."
Miana nodded then returned to tidying up the rest of her equipment on the backpack. He also sent a message to Bian. Refusing to ask Bian to come home together.
With the grabcar both depart from the dormitory to Miana's house. Despite the weekend, the streets are still crowded. Sometimes the journey gets stuck. The office hours have been since this afternoon.
"Just this time, I'm going to the big city. Turns out right, a lot of tall buildings."
Miana smiled looking at Nika who was being amazed. In fact, Miana herself was bored with the already ingrained traffic jam here.
"Miana, tell me about your school, yeah!" With a sparkle Nika shook her right arm Miana.
"Yeah. The route will be through school I used to just go home."
"Ohh, so that's the way it is, yeah."
Miana nodded. " Before passing my school, we will also pass my old house. The one I told you about last night."
Yes, last night Miana recounted how she and her family were evicted by a bank clerk and ended up living in a rented house. He also told me how his life worked part-time which eventually exposed SP due to the actions of someone. It's just, Miana did not say that it was none other than her own brother. For him, it was better to hide his brother's disgrace or ugliness. Moreover, Nika was among the new people present in her life.
Miana kept her promise to Nika as she passed by her old house. To make Miana tell about Bi Num to Nika in the end.
"Nahh, this is, uh, Hamber cafe. Where I last worked." Appoint Miana as she passes in front of the cafe where she worked for three months before the exam.
"Oh, cafe Hamber, yes! Unluckily..." Nika looks dizzy scanning the location of the cafe. Like observing the surroundings.
"Why?" miana asked because Nika looked enthusiastic. Talk about the cafe Hamber.
Nika became surprised to see Miana until close her seat. It was obvious that Miana wanted to know what was on Nika's mind.
"Ah. That ... I haven't told you, yeah." Nika grinned to unravel the worry that was clearly visible from Miana's face. "There's brother. He said it works around here. That's what I mean, Miana."
"Ohh, what's wrong, kirain" said Miana relieved. "Why not in W-Aja, anyway. I can meet you once."
I don't know why Miana's suggestion this time made Nika's face so agitated. Nika fixed her hijab which is still neat, to reduce anxiety.
Until the sound of the driver resuscitated Miana and Nika if they had reached their destination. Both are immediately down and pay according to the bills listed through the application.
The door was opened by Miranti. After introducing Nika to Miranti, Miana invites Nika to her room. At exactly 22:00 they arrived. So that Nika who was tired, quickly lay down on Miana's bed.
"It's so safe in your room, Na." Nika scanned the entire room so neat and organized.
"If you're sleepy, go to sleep first. Take it home."
"Where, could. If I need anything. Masa' yes I found it myself. Scared of me, same mom you."
Nika looks doubtful. "Emc .. Sorry, sorry, yes. That, your mama's cake is very judes. I'm gonna be scared."
Nika's confession made Miana chuckle then shake her head. He sat down near Nika. "Mama I'm good, really. Yes ... Though a bit judes, anyway."
"Well, right. You're my own."
Not wanting the conversation to widen everywhere, Miana quickly cut the conversation. Miana took her dirty clothes. "This holy one first, yes. If it's thirsty, in front of the room I turn right, it's the dining room. Usually, I also bring water to the room, anyway. But, not yet."
Nika nodded. His body was quite tired after a day of finishing the last day of ospek today.
Miana washes her clothes. He went to meet Miranti and asked Surya. But, always the right answer he got.
"Ngapain, anyway. Find your papa! Want to ask for money! Therefore, not because you have been able to scholarship trus you feel good about being unemployed. You think the cost of eating is also free! Not all of that can be borne with a scholarship, Miana. That's why don't be a fool, you are."
"Ma, Miana's just looking for papa, want to see you."
"The reason is you! You are also a job hunt! Where's your promise to help papa, pay off this house? You leave the house, you're going to take your hands off too, right!"
Miana doesn't want to get hurt any more given what Miranti said. It is true, he once promised so to help pay off home installments. But, right now it's not working. To eat, he had to be careful. Given the savings in his Atm card began to decrease.
Both don't know. If behind the wall, there was Nika who accidentally heard the mother-daughter conversation. She who initially wanted to help Miana so disturbed because the conversation in the television room was so disturbing hearing.
Nika immediately went to Miana's room. He was busy on his phone for a while. Until he heard Miana had returned to the wash. He quickly returned to Miana. Of course he will not show his sad face. Undeniably, there is a sense of tightness when looking with her own eyes, how Miana was treated by her mother.

Miana came out of the house early in the morning. After breakfast at the table. Helped Nika both wriggled from after dawn.
This time it was Arga's house. Meeting Mr. Deri at the gate finally Miana knew if Sari was there. He immediately knocked on the door. Even with a rumbling chest he kept trying to calm down.
The door opened by Sari made Miana smile with relief. "Oma ... ," she said.
"Miana?" sari replied hiding a surprised look.
The two hugged for a moment. Then Sari invites Miana to sit on the guest sofa. After making small talk, Miana could no longer hold back her curiosity over Arga.
"Actually, where's Arga, Oma. He really went to Aussie. Did he really go to college there?"
Sari nodded in response. Before Miana asked further Sari held onto Miana's arm and shook her head. As if I knew what Miana was going to ask.
"Don't ask that. Oma also does not know, what does Arga mean to stay away from you, Miana. In addition to studying there he also helped his papa business there. So, whether intentionally or not. Nor did Oma get the answer."
"Oma once asked him about the sudden decision he made. And the answer, made Oma shut up. Don't want to ask again."
"Oma, if Miana's wrong. He should be able to rebuke, right! No need to stay away from Miana." With teary eyes and a raucous voice, Miana spoke softly. "Until now, Arga is out of touch, Oma. Social media access is also in lock."
"Oma agrees too." Sari nodded confirming, "but Arga still did not want to admit the reason."
"Oma, Miana please. Love Miana contact –,"
"Sorry," said Sari, deliberately disconnecting Miana's words.
☘️
Miana came home without success. However, his meeting with Sari was more than enough to know how and where Arga was.
Sari's one message to her before she leaves Arga's house makes her determined and unwilling to sink into the complexity of understanding Arga.
'Pursue what is your dream. Put aside the unimportant things. Don't be weak just because things aren't on your side. Instead, make it all a valuable lesson for you.'
