One Sunday Mr. Rangga was not at the restaurant. Take care of all the restos in every branch of the city on the island of Java. It is that busyness that grows doubt in the heart of Pomegranate. No entrance reported his existence. Let alone asking about it.Delima threw away all negative thoughts . The pomegranate dumps every flavor that has grown. His thoughts returned to his original purpose of working. Wanted to rack up a little windfall to help his family's economy.
The crowd of customers that afternoon made a bustle for his employees. The roar of the car stopped in the parking lot.Pak Rangga came with Mother Monic. They went straight into Rangga's study. Pomegranate glimpsed that. Quickly remove the problem. Until the Resto closed Mr. Rangga and Ms. Monic did not come out.
On Sunday Pomegranate already plans to buy its monthly needs. At 08.00 want to leave, by taking an angkot without Nani who delivers. The door is knocked from the outside. Pomegranate put back his handbag. He opens the door. A face that has not been completely forgotten appears without telling first.
...RONALD'S...
"Good morning, fifth" Ronald said with his trademark smile.
"Good morning too" replied Pomegranate, "Please sit down". Ronald sat in front of the pomegranate.
"Sorry, I came here to get an address from you. Father, mother and sisters send greetings. My father also said thank you. Your sister graduated and went to class too. The bontot had already entered Primary School, "said Ronald explaining the intent of his arrival.
Good news from the family that he wanted to hear. He has to work hard to help.
"Thank you for the news" said Pomegranate happily and remained calm.
"You're getting older now Pomegranate. I'm sorry I took off the pearls I once had, but I'm happy to have them" Ronald said.
"Had Ronald not been reminded again, " said Pomegranate deliberately decided hope.
"You want to travel?" ask Ronald.
"No," replied the lazy Pomegranate to the outside because it was too late.
"Still like iced tea?" ask Pomegranate.
"Yes, that's the drink I drink with you every day" Ronald replied, recalling their time together.
"Before I take it," replied the Pomegranate who had stood up .
In the kitchen Pomegranate already confronted Nani full of questions.
"Why did Ronald come here?" ask Nani.
"Delivering greetings from Father, Mother and Sisters," replied Pomegranate while making iced tea.
"Other than that ?" ask Nani full of search.
"Don't know," replied Pomegranate," Quickly take a shower and chat with Ronald".
Pomegranates came out carrying two glasses of iced tea and two jars of pastries. Then offer it to Ronald.
"Let's drink,"
"Thank you," replied Ronald taking an iced tea and spending half a glass.

Nani immediately took a shower and went outside to accompany them to talk. Nani looked excited. With his cuteness and carelessness made the time of an hour pass by just like that. The roar of the car engine stopped in the yard and was immediately turned off. The car door was closed a little.
...CRANKS...
"Assalamualaikum," said someone who was already at the door.
"Waallaikum salam," the three of them answered simultaneously.
A grown man with steady steps walked over to Pomegranate
"Sorry to disturb," said Rangga who deliberately hugged Pomegranate body tightly.
.......
"Please sit down, Brother," said Pomegranate, "This is Ronald Pomegranate and Nani's friend when High School used to be".
Rangga shook Ronald's hand there was little emphasis there.
"Include me Rangga, Nani's sister and Pomegranate's future husband".
"I'm Ronald" answered Ronald. Ronald Ronald saw the watch. Then I want to go home.
" Thank you for drinking Pomegranate, I said I went straight home to Semarang".
" Greetings to my father, mother, and sisters alike" said Pomegranate.
Ronald arrived at the door and Pomegranate wanted to chase, his hand in Rangga's grasp quickly flicked to release.
"Ronald wait," cried Pomegranate quickly after him
"About the prospective husband you hear don't tell the Father and Mother it's just a joke" Pomegranate said pleading.
"Yes, I get it. You're too young for him. You need to know I broke up with Lisa. Lisa cheated on me. If I may wish I always waited for the pearls I once had" Ronald said seriously. He quickly hugged Pomegranate. The pomegranate was silent.
Ronald passed. The pomegranate again sat in front of Nani and Rangga. Rangga immediately opened the conversation.
" Pomegranate let me drop by to buy your monthly needs," said Rangga slowly.
"Delima lazy Kak is already noon, next time just come home from the restaurant," replied Pomegranate gave an excuse.
"Then the three of us just look for food outside," said Rangga invite Pomegranate to lunch.
"Sister and Nani alone, later I'll be wrapped in one," replied Pomegranate evasive give an excuse.
"What's Pomegranate? You mad at me?" ask Rangga who already understands the situation
"I have no right to be angry with Brother" replied Pomegranate.
"Nani, go buy lunch and need you and Pomegranate for a month, be careful on the road," Rangga said. Nani immediately picked up the wallet and immediately went outside not forgetting to close the door.
Rangga noticed the Pomegranate. Pomegranates are upset, but can still hold back their feelings.
"I'm sorry, this one week has been very busy so I can't contact you" Rangga explained.
"Yes Brother, Pomegranate understands" said Pomegranate.
*Is there anything you want to say Pomegranate?" ask Rangga.
"Sister, Pomegranate wants to focus on work first. Pomegranate in order to help you so that the younger siblings can go to school to get a job," explained Pomegranate.
"You want to get away from me? You want to go back to Ronald who's been waiting for you?" asked Rangga in a loud voice.
"No, brother, Ronald, my past. I've been hurt before. I don't want a second heartache" said Pomegranate in a soft voice and began to be inaudible. Rangga shifted his seat. Both hands held Pomegranate's hands.
"Become brother go home, Pomegranate want to rest," said Pomegranate without seeing Rangga.
" Dear, forgive, "said Rangga begging, "Speak if there is anything to say, but never say the word parting".
"Preferably Mr. Rangga remains my leader without any other feelings, but do not fire me. This job hopes to help the family" Pomegranate said.
"Alright if that is your wish, " said Rangga accept the decision of Pomegranate,"Excuse me, good afternoon".
"Good day," replied Pomegranate silently on the seat
The sound of the car had long since disappeared, but Pomegranate was still reluctant to stand up from his seat. His decision was already unanimous to keep working without thinking about his feelings.
He has made a decision for himself.
