AYU has arrived in Jakarta, she looks around her new boarding room measuring 4x5 meters. Not too fancy, but enough.
After this, then what? Say it in the heart. Half wondered if this decision was correct? But on the other hand, Ayu cannot lie to herself that she still wants to meet Arshaka even if only once again.
At that instant his phone rang, from someone with an unknown number.
“Halo?” Waiting for answers.
“Ayu? It's me Farhan!” He replied in a typical Farhan cheerful tone, he was Ayu's old roommate. Already from a few years ago he moved to Jakarta to look for rupiah. “You've reached Jakarta?”
“Iya, I just got there..”
“Good! When can you get here?”
Ayu plays the edge of her shirt, “tomorrow? I'm going to clean up today..”.
“OK! It's okay, take your time, Yu! But tomorrow don't forget, I'll wait!”
“Iya!” Ayu said after Farhan turned off the call. He remained grateful that even so, he had a reliable friend. Tomorrow he will start working here, hopefully it will be a good start for Ayu.
...\~oOo\~...
“You sure no one is missing?” Kinan asked Arshaka who was ready with his black suitcase. What else does he need to bring? He did not remember what important items he could carry, so he only wore simple clothes and changed clothes as necessary.
“We're ready, Auntie!” Salina suddenly appears from behind Arshaka and embraces him spoiled.
The three of them will go to Singapore today, while Rudi, Papa Arshaka will follow when his business with the office is done.
Arshaka had resignedly faced the girl beside him, willing to be warned how many times Salina would stick to him.
Suddenly the girl pulls out her phone and takes a photo of them together, despite knowing Arshaka doesn't like it. “You remember your sosmed account?” Salina asked staring at her phone.
“Nggak.”
“This,” then he took another phone in the bag and gave it to Arshaka. “Gift, for our engagement later. I've backed up all your data there.”.
Although Arshaka does not like Salina, he will still receive the gift. Indeed that's what he needed all this time, Arshaka so stupid himself why he forgot not to ask for Ayu's phone number at that time.
“Try to open your InstaToon!” Pinta Salina with a hopeful smile.
Arshaka did not answer but still did, there was a notification Salina made a story that marked it there, it was their photo.
“Beauty right?” Tanya Salina was happy.
Arshaka remained silent and immediately closed his phone, he just wanted to focus on his journey.
...\~oOo\~...
The next day, Ayu was already preparing at the cafe, Farhan taught Ayu how to prepare some menus and serve them. It does not matter if Ayu will need a lot of time to learn it, he will still be happy to accompany him.
Ayu was Farhan's first love while they were still in High School. Even to this day, Farhan secretly still admired Ayu's figure.
“Begin how...” said Farhan helped Ayu pour coffee carefully.
“OK, successfully!” Ayu was happy with his first coffee. They made small jumps and clapped each other like children.
“So, how was the lesson today?” Farhan asked with his trademark smile, making anyone who saw would automatically smile as well.
Ayu sighed in satisfaction, “capek, but exclaimed..”.
“You need a break first? Like lunch hour?”
“Bby...” said Ayu agreed, they then walked together to one of the dining tables and brought a plate of bread each as well as homemade coffee.
“So, what brought you here, Yu?” Tanya Farhan was curious.
“Mbak Maya, you know for yourself how rich he is..” Ayu started his first bite.
“Dia why? Don't tell me Maya told you to get married? Hahaha!” Farhan said, but that is the truth.
“She told me to marry..”
“Uhuukk...!” Farhan coughed at the end of his crisp laughter. “Serious?”
Ayu just nodded, although that was not the only reason for coming here. But there is no way he told it to Farhan, it can be considered crazy later. To Jakarta only to meet a man who he himself does not know where his whereabouts, he could have married another woman or forgotten with Ayu. How thought.
“Whose name?” Tanya Farhan was still wondering who would be nominated to Ayu.
“Mas Bima, the son of a friend of Mother's. Ma'am Maya said that the person will help our family later if I marry him and the business of the Father will also be finished quickly.”.
“Your father is still sick?” Ask Farhan carefully.
“That's it, Han. She is still hospitalized in the hospital.” immediately Ayu becomes no appetite, the atmosphere becomes gloomy.
Farhan did not want to continue to discuss it, so he then chuckled. “You do not want to first we really like playing hide and seek together, until you are angry with Mba Maya.”.
“Hahaha, yes..” Ayu replied happy again, he did not want to continue to dissolve in sadness.
“You know not, mbak Maya was angry you because she was not invited to play tau!” Ledek Farhan tried to comfort Ayu, indeed it managed to make Ayu smile.
Both make the atmosphere again feel comfortable as before until finally Farhan said goodbye to leave for a while. “Let me call again, Yu! I have a call from the client for a moment.”.
“OK, Han. Thanks for the time, I will try my best.”.
“Spirit, Yu!” Farhan said with a big smile then immediately left Ayu alone.
It's still around half-time, there's still half an hour left until lunch time runs out. Ayu had finished her meal, so, she thought back to what she was actually doing here.
With all her pity, Ayu opened her social media account. He did not mean anything but fate like answering all his questions so far. He subconsciously typed out a name, the name of a person he was eager to meet, Arshaka.
Be met. Arshakas. There's that name there. He tapped on the screen to open his account, feeling both anxious and happy.
A photo surprised him. Arshaka was with a woman who was holding her with a smile. Don't they look good? Beautiful, batik Ayu. They match.
It feels like a waste, but he must also be happy because Arshaka has found his life.
Sentence “H-1 Engagement Day in Singapore!” Arshaka and Salina are getting engaged tomorrow in Singapore.
Ayu put down her phone, she feels like a fool now. “What the hell do you think Ayu!” His grunts to himself.
