"Gis, I need to go to the toilet first," said Sasa. She glanced at Dinda, who had just sat down, making Dinda look at her.

Then, Dinda got up when Selly was about to tell her something.

"Well, Din, where are you going?" asked Selly, who looked curious.

"I want to go to the toilet first, yes. I'm desperate," answered Dinda.

Follow; Sasa, who had already come out. Dinda stopped when Sasa was already standing in the alley between her tenth-grade class. She leaned back, folding her arms across her chest.

"What is it?" asked Sasa in a curt tone.

Dinda stopped, saw Sasa then she stood right in front of Sasa. Her eyes scrutinized the girl, who was about an ear tall. Then she smiled warmly. Sasa immediately turned her face when she saw the expression displayed by Dinda.

"Thanks, Sa," said Dinda, which managed to make Sasa look at her with a flushed face. "Even though I don't know why you helped me, I really appreciate you,"

"What a coincidence," replied Sasa, still in a curt tone.

"Why do you want to help me, Sa?" asked Dinda curiously.

Sasa was silent for a moment, and she cleared his throat a few times, then turned her face away again.

"What you said back then...," said Sasa at last. "Make me realize,"

"Which one?" asked Dinda, who managed to make Sasa mandated.

"Yes, about yesterday, what you said made me understand that what I did was wrong. I shouldn't be so stupid as to worship Nathan too much. To the point that I did things too much. Oh yeah, the problem with my kissing Nathan, actually I asked him I hope you don't misunderstand," explained Sasa.

Dinda digested Sasa's words. Moreover, the explanation of the kissing problem she saw in the bookstore at that time. Sasa has no obligation to explain it to her. After all, Dinda is nothing, Nathan.

"Honestly, Sa, I'm not saying that I don't hate you. It's because I don't want you to end up like me. So I hope you choose a guy more carefully. Because guys nowadays are hard to trust."

"I'm not Nathan's girlfriend, really. Nathan doesn't have a boyfriend," Sasa corrected, which managed to make Dinda even more confused. If it is true that Sasa is not Nathan's girlfriend, then why are they kissing? "We were dating, but only for a month. Nathan is a playboy. And he won't be able to stay with a girl for more than a week. He's known as a bad boy in this school. The nastiest guy who many girls fall for, another schoolboy."

"Then Gisel? Is she his girlfriend? Isn't she jealous that you kissed his girlfriend?" asked Dinda, who was increasingly confused.

"Not really. Nathan isn't dating anyone right now. And even if he's dating, it's just a joke."

"Then why are you taking so long? Didn't you say he wouldn't be dating for more than a week?" asked Dinda curiously.

Sasa was silent for a moment, then smiled blandly. "Yes, because I'm the one who insisted. I'll stop talking about this. What is Nathan not in class? He came out with Regar's motorbike."

"Why are you asking me?" asked Dinda, who was increasingly confused. Sasa asked strange questions as if he was Nathan's family who had to know Nathan was going anywhere. "I'm not his mother. Nathan's friend is you, not me,"

"I'm fine, talking to you is like talking to a trial judge. I'm going back to class first," said Sasa.

Dinda shrugged her shoulders, then followed Sasa's steps. When he entered the class, Gisel's eyes were already scrutinizing Sasa and Dinda in turn. But Dinda ignored it. Sitting pretty on her bench and busy with Selly.

"Have you done your job, Mrs. Endang, Din?" Sally asked.

"What task? I don't know," answered Dinda. Because she didn't go to school this week, she didn't know that there was an assignment from her English teacher.

"I was told to summarize a news story that was around, then presented it in front of the class. As a material for questions and answers, and discussion," explained Selly.

"I think I'll be late for home later," complained Dinda. She had to be in the library looking for materials. Though her body was tired and wanted to rest in the room.

Selly could only grin. She smiled broadly at Dinda as if she felt guilty. Yes, she should have been able to inform Dinda over the phone. However, Selly did not do it because she knew that her seatmate was sick. She didn't want to disturb. And now she can only tell because tomorrow who must submit the task immediately.

After school, Dinda immediately rushed to the library before the library closed. And she was forced to borrow Nathan's library card if she didn't want to come home late from school.

Dinda borrowed some books after sorting out several package books that were considered suitable for the material she wanted to take. Then give it to Mas Edo to be recorded. Now and then, she looked outside, and it was already evening. That means it's been too long since he's been in the library. Even at this hour, Mas Edo should have gone home, so Mas Edo was late for home.

"Sorry, yes, Mas," said Dinda for the third time. Mas Edo smiled, then nodded.

"It's okay, while at home there is nothing to do, sis," replied Mas Edo.

Fortunately, the librarian is friendly and kind like Edo. Otherwise, he'd be in real trouble. Because Dinda at least can not deal with curt people.

"Edo, I'll say goodbye first, yes," repeated Dinda.

Edo nodded.

Dinda stepped down the classroom halls before she could get to the classroom corridor and out of the school. Now and then, she looked around because her mustache suddenly sprouted.

Again, Dinda tried to neutralize her heart and mind. There can't be a demon. Dinda quickly stepped out of the school. But, her eyes immediately fell on the figure who was now leaning on a car.

Dinda backed away with both legs almost paralyzed. But she didn't want to fall now. She didn't like the figure at the corner of her eye to approach or even touch her body.

Dinda's body suddenly shivered. Her mouth was parched. Her eyes suddenly lit up. She hugged herself then backed away, trying to figure out how to get away from the place she was horrifying now.

"Dinda, Din!" shouted the figure.

Half sobbing, Dinda immediately ran, looking for any place to hide. She didn't want to meet this figure!

Dinda's steps immediately stopped when a large hand grabbed her hand until Dinda was in the arms of a figure. A figure that smells very good, and a figure that is so very neat. Dinda was about to rebel, but she remembered Doctor Anita's words. Master yourself before you do anything because the trauma you can get rid of is yourself.

"Nathan..." Dinda groaned when she looked up and found that pair of gray eyes were staring at her intently.

Between fear between calm, all feelings raged in Dinda's heart. Afraid because maybe that figure might chase her all the way here. And calm because she was now with Nathan. Even though she still didn't believe in Nathan, she felt that Nathan would make her fear disappear.

"He's coming," Nathan said. At the same time, he was holding Dinda's waist tightly.

Again, Dinda swallowed her saliva. Spontaneously she hugged Nathan's body tighter. She buried her face in Nathan's chest.

Nathan pulled Dinda's face, and then he looked at Dinda closely. For a moment, he looked behind Dinda, and then he smiled lopsidedly.

After that, he whispered to Dinda, "Din, I'm sorry," then kissed Dinda's lips.

Dinda could only stare. She didn't know what to do now. Because everything Nathan did felt so fast in her brain, and so quickly it flowed that part of her sanity was paralyzed. Dinda froze. Her body felt dead being kissed so hotly by Nathan.

Meanwhile, another figure behind Dinda walked wide and approached Dinda and Nathan. They were pulling Dinda then punching Nathan in the jaw.

"Don't touch my girl!"
