Two months and two weeks have passed. Andra and Viona are getting closer every day.
Andra increasingly put feelings for Viona, a foreign woman who first made herself hot cold, after six years she closed herself off from women. A warm feeling flowed back into his bloodstream, which he had not felt that warmth for a long time.
After she was released from her past love, indeed she did not want to put any more feelings on women. He knew the flaws in himself and his family, not allowing himself to be loved.
The heart that he had closed tightly, did not expect to open again with the presence of Viona. But he hid that taste.
She knew no background from the woman, other than her name and her brother's name. And afraid, if only the woman was the woman who was, she would not repeat the mistakes of the past because of her lack.
Viona is getting more comfortable in the middle of the Andra family. He also began to have special feelings for Andra, however, he tepis that feeling. He was afraid that a girl like himself was not the Andra type. He also doubted that his father would approve of his relationship later, because of the Andra family's simple economy.
Dion never stops trying to get close to Viona, although Viona always dodges when met by Dion.
Abandoning surrender is not him. All this time, he always got what he wanted, what he wanted.
The rejection that is often said Viona, makes him more excited to get the woman.
Life in the city goes on as usual. Kevin's family is increasingly worried and agitated by the absence of their daughter in the city.
Desperate, however, they keep searching for Viona's whereabouts, in the city.

Kevin's Residence.
”Where did my daughter go, Pa?” ask Maria. Tears ran down her cheeks. His face was always sad every day, his smile sank.
Lirjan was saddened to see the change of his mother, as well as Kevin, the father, he felt sad to see his wife who continued to be moody.
The power they had now, was unable to find where the only daughter was.
He was very sorry to have forced the princess to accept Rian as his fiancee, to make his daughter run away somewhere.
”Sabar, Mom. We will definitely find our daughter,” refer Kevin to his wife.
”Until when, Pa? It's been two months and there's no news yet about our son. I don't know what our daughter is going through right now. Mama's so worried, Pa.” Maria is getting sobbing.
”Lirjan is also sad, Ma. My sister left for so long. Moreover, he did not bring clothes, did not bring a penny of money, Lirjan was very worried on the days he lived. But... Lirjan always prayed that my sister would be okay now. Lirjan believes Ma, if there is someone who is taking good care of my sister.” said Lirjan persuaded the mother to calm down.
”Mama where can be quiet, Lirjan! At least, let Vivi not want to go home but we know where she is. But this..even his footprints alone we do not know..”.
Kevin and Lirjan both sighed.
”Have you asked Vivi's college friends about Vivi's whereabouts, Lirjan? Just who was Vivi last to talk to or who was Vivi's close friend on campus, did you already know about it?” ask Kevin to Lirjan.
”Already, Pa. They also do not know the whereabouts of Vivi. Besides Lirjan, are there any other friends venting Vivi? Lirjan also heard that Vivi will be removed from campus because it has been absent for a long time.” replied Lirjan.
Kevin massaged the base of his nose. ”For campus... Papa can arrange. We have shares there. Vivi will not be expelled from campus,” said.
Lirjan. His papa's words are right. They have a stake in the campus, although only 50%, can guarantee Vivi will not be expelled from the campus.
”Iya, Pa,” says, then.

Night in Andra village.
”Live another two weeks we're here. Are you ready to return to the city?” ask Andra to Viona.
”Actually, I still don't want to go back. I.. three months is still less to melt his heart papa so as not to match me. But..if I still come with you and stay with you when in ko__”
”You can't stay with me in town. I live in a boarding house alone.” prune Andra. Viona's face was sad and pouting.
Andra stroked Viona's head. ”What will people say if we stay together? Well, even if we don't do anything, they'll still talk bad about us. You... me.. Our reputation among the people will really be bad,” he explained.
”Iya, too! But..I don't want to go back to my parents' house...”.
”Then you stay here with my mother.” Andra proposal.
”I don't want to be disturbed just as Dion continues. At least if you're here, there's still you looking after me, other than mom. But, if it's just mom and me. I'm not sure I can protect myself directly from Dion.”.
Andra was silent to see Viona. True too, Dion was reckless, brave, and Viona's strength lost to Dion's strength. If Dion comes to disturb Viona later, then Viona.
If only that time I did not come on time.Perhaps that time Viona already.
”Yes already, later I will find my own boarding for you after we are in the city later.” Andra proposal.
”You know I don't have any money, Dra?” ask Viona.
Andra nodded. ”Iya. I will pay for you,” he replied.
”If my food, how?” ask Viona again.
”I'll buy groceries for your needs for two months.”
Viona was silent and pouting.
Andra sighed. She thought Viona didn't want to cook. ”Then, how do you want? You want to eat at the stall? I'm not a rich man, Vi..”.
Viona sees Netra Andra seriously. ”After you find me a boarding house and buy me food supplies for two months, you will leave me? We're both going back to being strangers?” viona's face was very sad.
Andra remained silent. This is what he wanted to do when he arrived in the city. And because of that too, he hides his feelings for Viona.
He did not want to look for trouble while in the city. However, she doesn't want Viona's family or parents to think she's been hiding Viona from them, for the past few months.
”So...we are not questioning about your food? You want me to always be there for you, even though we're already in town?” ask Andra.
Viona nodded.
”Vi, do you know you've been running for almost three months? You also know your family, your parents must have been looking for you like crazy all along? And you know I'm just an ordinary person? Can I bear the anger of your family when they find you with me?” ask Andra.
Viona fell silent.
”Vi, I don't want to look for things as long as I stay in town. Moreover, I don't know what your background looks like. I don't want your family to think that I'm the one who's been running and hiding you from them all along. I can't defend myself from the rampage of your family later when they find out, I'm the guy who was with you when you ran.” explained Andra.
Viona was still silent. Andra's words have a point. If they had arrived in the city, his papa's men and his brother would have easily and quickly found the whereabouts of the two of them.
Not only that, papa's men and her brother will also definitely reveal about Andra to the father and his brother.
And when the father and brother are angry, they will both teach Andra without mercy, without knowing the truth first.
”I will protect you from my family's rampage. I will defend you.” said Viona seriously staring at netra Andra.
Andra was silent returning Viona's gaze.
Unbeknownst to them, Andra's mother smiles behind the door, upon hearing Viona's words that will protect Andra, her son.
Sumi's mother opened the door. ”Viona, Andra, you two don't want to rest? It's late at night, you still feel at home withstanding the cold of the night wind? You guys are talking seriously, what are you talking about?” tanyakanya. He pulled up a chair and sat down next to Andra.
Andra saw Viona for a moment. ”Em. We only talk about our days in the garden. There is nothing serious that we are discussing. Aren't you, Vi?” ask Andra to Viona.
Viona smiled as she nodded looking at Sumi's mother.
”Oh, so! Oh, aye. You two stay here a few more days to stay. After that you will leave Mom alone, I will definitely miss you both.” Sumi's mother said. His face looks sad.
”Mother, Andra will definitely be back again to see Mom here. At the very least, after Andra had built a house in the city, Andra would call Mother to live with Andra in the city. For a while, Mother and Andra remained separated. The patient mother. Yes?” sahut Andra's. Mother Sumi nodded.
Sumi's mother sees Viona, andra knows what her mother means. Her mother will miss Viona. I don't know, when will Viona and mom meet again, after they'll be separated later?
”Mother, I'd better get in for a break. Andra and Viona still want to sit here. Aren't you, Vi?” ask Andra to Viona. Viona nodded.
Sumi's mother nodded. It stands, ”You guys don't stay outside for long...”
”Iya, Ma.” replied Andra and Viona.
Sumi's mother went back inside the house. Andra and Viona looked at each other again.
”You...get in for a break. I still want to be here.” Andra told Viona.
Viona nodded. It stands. ”You hurry in. It is not good to be exposed to the night wind for too long,” his advice.
Andra nodded obediently. Viona went inside the house.
Andra sighed. Vi, I want us to stay together, too. But, can it be? Your background, I don't know for sure. I also don't know, do you already have a boyfriend or another guy you like or not?
What is certain is that once we are in the city, we will live each other's lives. After you return to your parents' house, will we still be able to meet again?
Vi, I really don't know what your background looks like? But, my hunch says you are the one being. Everything is clearly visible from the soft, white, and smooth of your skin. Cook, wash dishes, wash clothes, and sweep, you learn slowly from my mom.
Vi, if that's true, you and I aren't suitable even to be friends. You can stay in my village without continuing to complain, I'm grateful. May we meet again in the city, after you return to your parents.
