"The feeling we can't force just because we love him or fear losing him. We should also give him some spare with whom he will choose. Because no matter how hard we hold it, if indeed our partner likes the person. Of course he'll choose that guy by leaving us. Of course with a good farewell" said Alfian gave an explanation to Riana's question.
Riana was silent as she listened to the words of the man beside her. And it's true, what he said. That no matter how hard that person holds someone he loves so much that he does not leave. Will the person he loves be happy?
Riana leaned her head on Alfian's shoulder. When the man has now confirmed his position so that Riana who is on the shoulder can be more comfortable. Alfian who was looking at Riana who was now crying on her backrest, just gently rubbed the girl's hair. Trying to make the girl calmer.
While on the other hand Mira was clenching her hands tightly. The girl seemed to hold back her tears that were about to fall.
'Who do you like Alfian? Why do you always do that to everyone!' lirih Mira in her heart when she saw the man still with his position stroking Riana's hair on the back of her shoulder.
"My heart hurts Alfian! I don't know why, but obviously I just realized that I like you. I like you, Alfian. Hicks!" lirih Mira with her gaze that began to descend stared at the street. Accompanied by tears that he tried to resist so as not to come out finally fell to the ground flowing without his permission.

Emily walked down the aisle of her university towards her classroom, carrying the thick book in her hands. And while climbing the stairs to his class he passed Mira who was seen crying, passing him without greeting him.
Seeing that Emily immediately held her best friend's arm that looked down. "Mira, what's wrong with you? You cry?"
Mira also nodded. "Not Mil. I'm fine."
"Lied!" emily said quickly. He knew that his friend was hiding something from him.
Mira just lowered her head and she started crying in silence. Emily who was still holding her hand immediately hugged Mira's weak-looking body.
"It's hard to be okay, Mira, I'm here" Emily said, rubbing her back gently.
...
"Is it better now?" alfian asked as Riana already looked better than she was.
Riana simply nodded and smiled slightly at the man who was now beside her. "Yes, thanks Fin. You've comforted me."
"Don't say thanks! I didn't help anything either, I just happened to be here and saw you that way. So yaudah I help calm you down." said Alfian at length.
"Riana?" call the man with a straight forward look.
Riana who had indeed looked speechless tilted her head looked towards Alfian who was staring straight with an expressionless face. "Hm?"
"You have the same problem Dimas?" ask Alfian to the point.
"Dimas hurt you huh? To the extent that you have to express your cry in this place." guess the man again.
That question made Riana nod small. However, it can be known by the man next to it. Riana who had just gotten better and had forgotten about the incident, had to recall the incident that made her crowded and ended up in that place with Alfian.
Seeing Riana just nod her head, Alfian turned her head towards the girl. It looks like Riana is holding back her tears that are starting to flow into her soft cheeks. Making Alfian take a deep breath. He immediately picked up his sling bag and searched for something in his bag.
"More." Alfian thrust the tissue he took from inside his bag at Riana.
"Em."
"If you need a storymate. Just call me! Relax, I'm a man who can keep secrets. If you trust me, you can call me at any time if you really need a storymate." alfian offered to the girl who was still wiping away her tears that were about to fall.
Riana looked back smiling. Even though that smile looked very faint. However, Alfian could see the look on the girl's face with his gaze.
'No matter what happens to the two of you, I can only support whatever your decision will be. Because I know, what it feels like to endure pain when we see the person we love, loving others.' Alfian murmured inwardly as he smiled slightly looking at Riana who was looking straight ahead.
I don't know what's on both of them's minds. However, both of them chose to stay still while looking at the sight of clouds that still stung the skin of both.
"Drink." Emily offers a canned drink while she and Mira are in their campus cafeteria.
Mira grabbed it while smiling. "Thank you Mil."
Mira also opened the lid of the drink can. When it was open, he immediately gulped it down along with his head that hurt. Mira also held her head which began to feel throbbing.
"Mira, you're okay, right?" ask Emily who looks worried to see her friend who looks in pain.
Mira nodded small. "I'm okay. Once again thank you Emily you gave me this drink."
"really? But you keep holding your head? Did we go to the doctor, yaudah yuk we go now ju-" Emily's speech was cut off when Mira cut it first.
"Not to Emily. I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy anyway. Maybe because I was exhausted because of the lesson that lecturer Akbar loved earlier." said Mira lied. While convincing Emily who looks worried about him.
"Is it really okay?"
Mira also nodded. "Yes, it's okay."
"Yaudah! Then I'll just take you home, okay?"
"Jude, come!"
The two come out of the cafeteria with Emily helping Mira hold her arm. Fearful the girl suddenly returned dizzy. So Emily could easily hold it. So the two get into a taxi that Emily had ordered on her way out to her university building.
And when Emily and Mira get into the cab. Dimas who also wanted to go home because his subjects had also finished accidentally saw the two get into a taxi.
"Where are they going?" mumbling Dimas to himself.
