The Mate of Teenagers

Part 16 Departing to America

"Young master is all set" said aunt Huang who prepared Aska's things into the large suitcase. Ariani Aska's mother only cried all day because she was going to part with her favorite child.

"Ma I'll go home if it's holiday" Aska hugged her mother. He himself heavily had to go far and part with his family and school friends.

But Aska is aware of the responsibility he carries in the future. He was born as the successor of the Admaja family. Many people dream of their current position. Aska felt very lucky so she would not waste her chance.

"So you're leaving for America tomorrow?" Rama and Jordan had actually expected it. They knew the Aska family and the ins and outs of their big business.

"It's your own will or your papa who sent you away?" ask Rama.

"My own will, I care about my future that's why I'm gone"

"Do you know about this?" ask Rama again.

"Why does the salted fish know this?"

"Aska you and her are close, right? you better tell him before you go" Rama patted Aska on the shoulder and walked away. Jordan did the same as Rama. He went back to his class.

Aska was glued for a moment to remember her meeting with her friends. And he remembered Raya who he had loved to work with ever since the girl entered school.

That afternoon Aska came home early compared to his classmates. He'll make the flight tonight.

Amanda who really likes Aska is not willing to go far. He looks sad and dramatic. While Raya was just speechless to hear Aska was going to America.

"His dream is that he will go far away, why is he not saying goodbye to me?" raya Gumam.

Rama approaches Raya in her class. He sat beside Raya who was silent looking out the window of his class.

"You know Aska's leaving?"

"Yes I know"

"Let me take you!" Rama pulled Raya's arm and took her away.

"Where are we going?"

"But...."

"Don't hesitate, I'll take you to meet him. We don't know when he'll be back here"

True also said Rama, Raya did not know when to be reunited with Aska. He went that far to school. It will take years for him to finish his education.

Rama's car turned to Aska's house. The guard said Aska had been escorted to the airport. Rama speeding towards the airport chasing Aska. He tried so that Raya could meet with Aska.

Aska turned her face, she was surprised to find Raya and Rama standing far behind her.

"Pa for a moment, Aska wants a farewell friend" Aska walked away. Mr. Bram looked at him.

"Who is that girl?"

Madam Ariani looked towards Rama and Raya stood up.

"Oh that's Raya with Aska's schoolmate"

"Are they close?"

"Know that mama doesn't, even Aska likes to prank Raya. Maybe Aska wants to say goodbye to Rama pa"

"Oh right too"

Only silence between the three. Raya looks quieter, I don't know what she's thinking.

"What salt fish do you want to talk to?"

"I.welcome to Aska road hopefully all smoothly and you are more successful when you return later"

"You better pray for yourself too so that when I come back later you'll be a shark instead of a salted fish again!.I go first" Aska rattled the hair of the sign bailed.

Rama and Aska shook hands and hugged each other. While Raya looked at the two. There was a feeling of loss and sadness in the depths of his heart. He would miss the arrogant young master for the next few years.
