Her gaze was still fixed on Julian who was sitting there. She was silent as an ice cube. Immediately her self realized, she quickly shook her head. Watching people for too long is afraid of getting into trouble.
Before long a beautiful woman approached Julian. The woman immediately sat down and hugged Julian. This made Sharen silent again to pay attention to Julian's lover.
"Honey, I'm so sorry, I've been taking so long," the sweet voice of his girlfriend - Laura Cedriq.
"It's all right," said Julian in his characteristically flat tone.
"Thank you. I like it when you invite me here, because here my subscriptions are here and mommy too," said Laura
"Good," said Julian.
When Julian looked away, he immediately saw Sharen who was standing there staring at him. Sharen immediately realized, she had just been stared at by Julian, she immediately turned her body and left nervously.
"Why is Julian looking at me," said Sharen holding her forehead and quickly walked away from there.
Sharen hid away from where Julian was. She held her face then shook her head to come to her senses. It was stupid to stare at them for so long. Where did you see each other? Although we often meet when Sharen stays at Atana's house.
After a while, Sharen saw again the situation where Julian was. She breathed a sigh of relief that they were no longer there. She also had time to think why she was hiding like a thief when she only saw each other. Sharen quickened his pace, she looked for Depa and asked some employees. It turned out that Depa had come home fifteen minutes ago, but she had not seen Depa pass by. Sharen came out of the beauty building. She looked around her to find out where Depa was, but there was no one.
Sharen decided to go home.

Ardifa Atana - a 21 year old girl majoring in psychology, Sharen's beautiful best friend, the second child of the Adhitama family. Atana has a boyfriend who has been together for two years, Sharen is always her runaway when she wants to meet her boyfriend and makes an excuse for her family.
Atana runs towards Sharen. She embraced Sharen's hand.
"Where have you been?" asked Atana.
Sharen turned "Not going anywhere," said Sharen shaking her head.
"Since yesterday I called too," said Atana.
Sharena chose not to answer Atana. How will she explain if her cellphone was damaged by her mother yesterday.
"Surely! you don't have a charger, right, habit," said Atana.
Atana put her hand into Sharen's tote bag quickly looking for Sharen's cellphone but, Sharen kept blocking her.
"Ah, my cellphone is broken," said Sharen, who finally wanted to be honest.
"Why can?" said Atana in disbelief.
Sharen turned her gaze to another direction. She was silent for a moment, she didn't want to explain to Atana.
"Broken why?" asked Atana angrily.
Sharen walked quickly and was followed by Atana. Atana didn't understand Sharen, why she didn't want to explain why her cellphone was damaged, even though it wasn't something that had to be covered up. Having been friends for a long time, of course Atana understands from Sharen's expression like that. Atana knows how her best friend's life is. Living with a biological mother and siblings but like a stepdaughter, it's sad to see Sharen being beaten blue.
"Slammed again?" asked Atana who was trying to chase Sharen.
Regarding the laptop, Atana already knew that Dara had slammed Sharen's laptop because Sharen had told her. Her words were just a joke, but if it's true, I really don't believe it.
Sharen stopped her steps then turned to Atana.
"Yes," said Sharen then smiled there.
Atana looked at her friend sadly, how could Sharen just be there when his things were just broken. Even though it was her mother who damaged her but it hurt when she heard that, Atana certainly didn't like Dara's behavior. In the past, when Sharen's laptop was slammed and damaged, Sharen cried because a very important task that had been made from afar would be collected before the deadline but she couldn't turn back the time at that time. Sharen is strong, she tries to do her homework again using Atana's laptop, not all of the tasks that Sharen does there, some on her cellphone.
Atana spreads her arms, she opens to tell Sharen that she is ready to be hugged and ready if her best friend wants to cry.
Sharen took Atana's hand and pulled her back.
"Don't want to cry?"
"It's not a big problem," said Sharen.
"Don't be so strong," said Atana.
"Who's so strong?" asked Sharen.
"That's a branch that will fall soon," said Atana.
Sharen laughed, even though she knew what Atana meant, but Atana's jokes cheered her up.
"Your faculty is there," said Sharen.
They stopped in the middle of the direction to their respective buildings according to the faculty. Sharen let go of her hand that had pulled Atana.
"Before we part. We hug first like a teletist," said Atana.
Atana hugged Sharen then let her go. She waved at Sharen to go to her faculty. Sharen left when Atana had focused on her steps.
Today Sharen is busy with a busy class. Paying attention to what the lecturer explained, taking notes and rereading it when the material was finished, Sharen occasionally looked at her watch, soon all of her classes would be finished. Sharen continued to finish the last class of the day.
"Because you have completed the 3D assignment two weeks ago, today is the same as I explained earlier, except that you made a house with an area of 0-90 not level," said Lecturer Juan explaining the assignment to the students.
"Okay, sir," they said in unison.
Class is over. Sharen walked down the corridor, usually the active Atana approached her when all classes were over, no need to look for Atana already there waving her hand at Sharen. Sharen told Atana not to go to her but she to go to Atana.
"I was really sleepy in class," said Atana.
"Not paying attention to the lecturer for sure," said Sharen.
"Eitts, no, even though I'm sleepy, my eyes stay," said Atana.
They walked together. Telling stories along the way, very random stories.
"Did you know yet?" said Atana.
"It means?" asked Sharen not understanding because Atana had not told the contents.
Atana stopped her steps and made Sharen stop too.
"El! Eh!? El wants to get married," said Atana and hugged Sharen happily.
"Julian wants to get married?" asked Sharen.
Is it true that Julian is getting married? Sharen's heart instantly thumped, she looked straight at him in disbelief. She wanted to say something but her lips suddenly went numb. Her hands are also difficult to move. Why did it happen?
"Really, Sharen," said Atana.
Sharen can see Atana's happy face because Julian is Atana's most dear brother. But why does her heart hurt when she finds out, why is she still stiff. Sharen with her gaze and focus on returning to the beginning.
"Ah! Forgot to tell you earlier, actually yesterday I chatted with you and called you to tell me this, tonight's fiancee Julian, you have to come!"
