Slow steps are both accompanied by exciting chats, until both are on a high hill with a truly amazing view.


The cold weather mixed with the hot sun that began to rise to make their bodies become warmer.


"Look at that white cloud-covered mountain of merapi looks so clear as to stand upright parallel to us" said Kahfi pointed towards the front.


Ayumi's two beautiful eyes sparkled at once to see this truly enchanting sight.


Both of Ayumi's hands were stretched out and her head turned upwards and felt a strong gust of wind from the direction of the mountains that hit Ayumi's face and hijab. The breeze felt cold piercing the skin on his face, this pleasure is indeed difficult to express with words but can be felt and described through the happiness and mimic of the face that looks to enjoy.


"Ayumi likes this place, Kak Fi," said Ayumi with both eyes still closed.


Kahfi glanced at Ayumi who was still enjoying the cool air. From the side, Ayumi's beautiful face looks so perfect, both eyes that do not turn but still look beautiful, lashes that are flattened, the nose is not too sharp but looks right with her face, her tiny, thin lips made that perfection even more dazzling.


"When do you want to crumple it? Look at the scenery, if you can shout here as loud as possible," Kahfi said slowly to Ayumi.


Ayumi lowered her hands and straightened her gaze at the mountain of Merapi in front of her. Both of his eyes went around in all directions until nothing was passed.


Ayumi walked forward and held the iron fence of the hills and ravines. Kahfi followed Ayumi from behind and stood right behind Ayumi.


"Awas Ay," said Kahfi, advising him to be careful.


Ayumi just nodded slowly. Ayumi took a deep breath and shouted as loudly as the neck muscles were drawn to the cheeks.


Kahfi looked at the back of his girl with pity, her screams were very loud and loud but like restrained and less loose. There is a burden that is still stored in the depths of his heart that is reluctant to be removed to escape from all fatigue.


Ayumi lowered her face, her eyes closed with the tears coming out. While screaming as if both parents come hugging Ayumi from behind and provide strength and motivation to always be strong and steadfast to live this hard life.


Kahfi walked forward towards Ayumi, both hands touching Ayumi's shoulders and leaning against her chest. Kahfi whispered softly right in Ayumi's ear that was covered by the hijab, "There is a Big Brother who is always beside you Ay. For Brother, you are the priority and the most important person for Big Brother's life."


Ayumi's heart gasped in shock as Kahfi's words so brought relief and comfort to Ayumi. 'But, this must not happen, Sister Fi belongs to Rara, and only Rara should be Kak Fi's priority, not Ayumi' for Ayumi in her heart.


Ayumi's body was turned upside down by Kahfi until they stood facing each other. Ayumi's pretty face looked lethargic and uninspired.


"Don't cry, Big Brother will always be there for you, this is a promise that Brother will always keep Big Brother," said Kahfi slowly. His tone of voice was truly longing for Ayumi.


Kahfi's index finger touched Ayumi's chin and raised the face to look at her.


"Look at Big Brother's eyes, never be afraid of anything, say it to Big Brother, and Big Brother will help you sincerely," Kahfi said back in a soft voice.


Ayumi just stared at Kahfi's perfect face, without being able to nod her head as it was held back by Kahfi's finger.


"But Brother?" ayumi's speech came to a halt as Kahfi's index finger moved from her chin to Ayumi's tiny lips for no comment.


"I don't want to hear any reason, including the reason about Rara," said Kahfi very firmly.


Ayumi just stared at the two eyeballs of Kahfi wryly. Kahfi's index finger had been lowered and Ayumi turned her face the other way. Trying to strengthen yourself without the help of others.


Ayumi does not want her sadness to be published for everyone, so that many people who are compassionate with her, even on the contrary Ayumi does not like people who pity her.


"Consider Rara's feelings, sister. Appreciate the feeling of Kak Afnan, we will both only be brothers-in-law and will never be more than that" said Ayumi softly. Her tears were already full and unstoppable wanting to come out of her beautiful eyelids.


"You think brother deserves to be hurt?"ask Kahfi to Ayumi slowly.


"That's not what Ayumi meant, sister," Ayumi replied.


Kahfi embraced Ayumi by force, Ayumi resisted by hitting the chest of Kahfi's field and Kahfi's arm.


"Take me off" Ayumi insisted loudly.


"Let Brother like this just for a moment Ay," Kahfi said half in a whisper.


Ayumi's heart degub felt very fast, wanting to scream loudly.


The embrace is getting tighter and comfortable.


"Sir Fi, enough!" ayumi said with a jolting tone and pushed Kahfi's body backwards.


Ayumi ran away from Kahfi and came down the hill with stairs.


"Ofyou!!" yelled Kahfi who also ran after Ayumi.


Ayumi kept running, a mistake Ayumi made again by letting Kahfi embrace her body and feel comfort.


His breathing began to pant, Ayumi stopped and held onto the large tree nearby. His head started to sting.


"God!! Why you?" kahfi shouted in a loud voice while descending the stairs quickly.


Kahfi held Ayumi's arms from behind and led her towards the park chair around the tourist area.


Ayumi sat in the chair and was left leaning on Kahfi's shoulder.


"Why are you, Ay?" ask Kahfi slowly.


"Dizziness Brother Fi," Ayumi replied slowly.


"You are here first yes, Brother buy food first for a while," said Kahfi slowly.


Ayumi's hand restrained Kahfi's departure by pulling her tee shirt.


"Home home, Kak Fi, Ayumi wants to rest at home" said Ayumi slowly.


"All right, let's go home, what road do you have to take?" ask Kahfi quietly in a serious tone.


Ayumi smiled broadly.


"Can't it be carried? No need to make things up, let's go," Ayumi said slowly to Kahfi.


"Kirain asked to be carried," said Kahfi expectantly.


Kahfi and Ayumi walked together towards the exit of this tourist area. The day had begun to noon, the playful event was over. Later in the afternoon Ayumi day back to Al Azhar Pesantren Cottage.


Both were in the car on their way home to Grandma Arsy's house.


"You wanna buy what's still on the road, Ay?" ask Kahfi slowly to Ayumi.


"Wheels and tempe bacem, right?" ask Ayumi slowly.


"There is a good sell at the front turn" replied Kahfi slowly and smiled at Ayumi.
