Worried Heart

Devan met Tama in the morning. Devan came and waited under a tree by the lake where Princess Villa was. After Tama came to see him, Devan said that currently Nadia is staying at Ara's boarding house. Devan also told Tama that yesterday Nadia came to Tama's house to meet Tama, unfortunately, Tama's neighbor told Nadia that Tama's family had not lived in the house for a long time. The house has been empty since a family member died.

Tama sits limply, he is very worried that his secret will be revealed when he has not been able to part with Nadia.

"Then what did Nadia say?", asked Tama to Devan in a weak voice.

"Don't worry bro, she thinks your sister died"

"Then what should I do?", Tama is still confused.

"Eits, the stupid,, come hurry up with me to Ara's boarding house, about what's the matter - how about you think about it later?" Devan said while dragging Tama into his car.

Meanwhile, at Princess Villa, Kirana lay on her bed. She kept on thinking about Tama's face who was smiling mischievously at her. After that, she rubbed her eyes. Then Kirana tried to close her eyes but a memory appeared when Tama hugged Kirana in the pavilion while she was sleeping.

"Haa, it was so embarrassing!"

Kirana got up from the bed. She ate the breakfast that Denok had prepared on the table. She ate voraciously like someone in a trance. Suddenly the shadows of Tama's face appeared in front of her with a smile.

"STOOOOPPPP!!"

Kirana splashed Tama's shadow with her drinking water.

"Damn, why am I going crazy like this, I have to meet that kid and make calculations! How dare he sleep beside me!"

Kirana goes to Tama's room. After arriving, it turned out that Tama was not in his room. Kirana went to meet Denok and asked where Tama had gone.

"Oh, sir Tama went outside with sir Devan" said Denok.

"Devan? How dare you kidnap my slave during working hours".

Kirana immediately left Denok with an annoyed expression on her face. Denok just smiled seeing Kirana's erratic behavior since sleeping in the pavilion with Tama.

"Actually, compared to being with the generals, the princess looks happier with sir Tama" said Denok.

Kirana sat in front of the pool, she looked at the pool with a blank stare. Suddenly she remembered the words of an old woman who had cursed her.

FLASHBACK

"Your arrogance and selfishness make you unfit to be a princess, you will live as a snake, only true love can remove the curse!".

In an instant Kirana turned into a snake, and the Palace where she lived sank into a lake.

****

Kirana woke up from her daydream. She took a pebble and threw it into the pool.

"True love, what is it? It doesn't look like it will exist. That granny just tricked me. In fact she wanted me to be a snake forever".

Kirana immediately stood up and left the pool. She returned to her room and began to make plans for the magic festival that she would hold on the night of the full moon.

Meanwhile, Tama and Devan arrived in front of Ara's boarding house. Nadia is seen in front of Ara's boarding house. She greeted Devan who had just arrived. Ara almost slipped, she was about to greet Tama but Tama immediately flew to Ara to cover Ara's mouth. During the day, Tama cannot be seen by ordinary humans.

"Mmmm... mmmm", Ara seemed to cover her mouth even though she was trying to let go of Tama's hand.

"Ara, are you ok?", asked Nadia.

Tama immediately removed his hands from Nadia's mouth.

"No.. no.. I am ok", answered Ara.

"Ah, your asthma is relapsing again?" asked Devan.

"What? Ara, do you have asthma?" asked Nadia.

"It's not too bad nad, now it's better"

It turns out that Nadia has been tricked by Devan and Ara. She believes that Ara has asthma.

"Then let's get in the car, we will take Nadia back to Jakarta" said Devan.

"Wow, thank you very much, you are my best friends," said Nadia.

Along the way, they chatted together. Nadia sat in the front accompanying Devan who was driving the car, meanwhile, Ara sat behind them with Tama.

"Van, ra, actually there's something that I'm keeping the secret from Tama, while there's no Tama, I want to ask your opinion" said Nadia.

Tama was immediately surprised, he brought his head closer and leaned on the back of Devan's bench while looking at Nadia.

"Huh, secret? If it's a secret, just keep it, don't tell us", said Devan while glancing at Tama from his rearview mirror.

"Oh, I see," replied Nadia.

Tama immediately hit Devan's head.

"Ouch!" Devan shouted.

"What's wrong van?" asked Nadia.

"Your head hurts again, van? Do you want to stop by to buy medicine first?", asked Ara to change the subject.

"Ah, don't worry guys, this will go away on its own" said Devan.

Devan said to himself, "You damn soul, watch out, I'll burn pepper again with a sprinkle of salt, you know."

Tama heard Devan's words, then he whispered in Devan's ear, "Van, I'll treat you later, pls I want to know what Nadia is keeping secret".

Finally, Devan asks Nadia about the secret that Nadia wants to tell them. Then Nadia told them. She said that she got a promotion from her office, but she had to go to South Korea.

Nadia has been thinking hard, she chose to give up the promotion because she chose Tama, but it seems she is disappointed with Tama because Tama has too many secrets and is reluctant to talk to him. She felt that Tama had changed.

"He's my lover, but I don't seem to have him" said Nadia.

Tama immediately went limp when he heard Nadia's heartbreak to Ara and Devan. Tama spoke in his heart "So all this time I've been playing with the feelings of the woman that I want the most"

Devan and Ara say that they can't comment on Nadia's problems with Tama. They advised Nadia to be honest with Tama about how she felt. Maybe Nadia and Tama's relationship will get better.

Tama asked Ara to write down his cell phone number to give to Nadia. Then Ara gave Nadia a paper with Tama's cellphone number written on it.

"Oh yes nad, when the day I met Tama, he left this to me, but I haven't read it either" said Ara.

"Oh, let me see"

Nadia opened the neatly folded paper. "It turns out that this is Tama's cell phone number," Nadia said to herself.

The journey from Ara's boarding house to Nadia's house takes 45 minutes via the toll road. Now they have all arrived at Nadia's house.

Nadia immediately got out of Devan's car, she offered Devan and Ara to stop by her house first but Devan and Ara refused. They said they were on other business. Not long after, Devan drove his car back.

After dropping off Nadia, Tama invited his friends to stop at a restaurant first to fulfill the agreement between Deva and Tama that had been said earlier.

They arrived at a Sundanese restaurant. Inadvertently Tama saw a woman who was similar to Kirana who was sitting eating but wearing black glasses.

"Is that Kirana?", Tama said in his heart.
