Chapter 18 Your Happy Thing   

The sound of a crowded tonggeret sound woke Yungi. He opened his eyes and looked at the woman, whose lap he had made the headrest, still sound in her sleep. There was no doubt that Mina was just as tired as she was. 

Yungi slowly rose from his sleep. He tidied up his dry clothes and sat down next to Mina. Slowly, he leaned Mina's head over her shoulder and stretched her arms around Mina's shoulder. He smiled and gently kissed Mina's head. 

“I love you!” ogre. 

“Hmm,” but Mina's voice murmured and replied by giving the Korean love symbol with her hand.  

“You're awake?” ask Yungi slowly.

“Udah, Just afraid that someone asked for more rations, so pretend to rejuvenate first!” babble Mina and she still closed her eyes. 

“Gosh! It won't, promise! You seem to have a really good cape! I'm taking you home! It's almost malem! We have to go home, right?” Yungi looked at Mina who had raised her head from Yungi's shoulder and was now repairing her hair. 

“OK,” said Mina. He smiles. Yungi nodded his head. 

“Come on,” Yungi said as he gave his back. Mina.

“If snot sling gini, so inget time we first yes.” Yungi walked down the street back towards the house. 

“Which one?” mina asked and she tightened her arms around Yungi's neck.

“When you hit a basketball in Junior High and the time in the forest in High School. Both because of me,” said Yungi. There was a tone of regret there. 

“Ah, that one!” mina replied after a long moment of silence for thinking about the incident that Yungi had just said. 

“Hmm, sorry yes!” said Yungi again while still continuing his steps.

“Pardoned.” Mina responded quickly while smiling. 

“Still,” say Yungi with a smile.

Mina kissed Yungi's cheek in response and the two immediately smiled. 

They told me again all the way home interspersed with crisp laughs from both. 

And of course they are happy

After praying once more in front of Love and Hope, they said goodbye to Aunt Irie and rushed home. Before returning to the hotel, they talked briefly with Yuki and similarly to Aunt Irie, they also met them farewell. 

“Please take care of him!” yuki said in English to Yungi, just before they came home.

“Eh?” Yungi was a bit surprised.

“Jaga him. He's not as simple as you think. He holds everything here,” Yuki said again while pointing at Mina who was saying goodbye to Yuki's children with a glance and moving her face forward and pointing at her heart. 

“Oh, yes, I promise,” said Yungi although he did not understand the word ‘simple’ and ‘hold everything here’.

“See you later, yes. Don't forget to be patient,” said Yuki while hugging Mina. 

“Hmm,” replied Mina while replying to her embrace. 

“Whatever happens, if there is a problem, remember you always have a home here,” Yuki said again in French. 

The two develop a smile and Mina and her family return to the hotel. 

Zen and Minami looked at each other with timid smiles and Juna who bore witness to them was just a head bobble. Though they were only 10 years old, but the seeds of puberty had appeared. 

After flying back to Kobe, they took a rest a day and the next day took time to enjoy the city of Osaka to visit some famous places and ended by going to Tokyo by using the Shinkansen. There they also re-hire a studio and take a walk in almost all famous places in Tokyo.

“At last we got together again,” Justin said as he sat on a long sofa right next to Vee as Mina and Yungi entered a VIP room at a club followed by Jini and Jun. They go together using different taxis and let their children be at Jini's house and play together. In Japan it is safe and ordinary. 

“Let's video call , Jay!” Justin took out his phone while others were busy looking through the food menu and some were just relaxing enjoying the room. 

“Jay!!!” Justin screamed in excitement as the person in the video call lifted up. 

“Where is Bro?” ask Jay. From his background he was clearly in his apartment. 

“We're again at the club in Japan! Join via Vcall yes!” justin said then began to reverse the direction of the focus of the video highlighting their gang friends one by one, starting from Jini and Jun who were looking at the food menu, Vee who was taking some photos in the room whose design is quite unique and elegant, then finally Mina and Yungi who were busy chatting with the couple's two hands. They look very intimate and happy and that makes the expression on Jay's face slightly change. 

“You enjoy! I can't. Again study cases!” jay tried to smile. 

“Serious new Bro! Hang out the stretch! Come on!” persuade Justin. 

“I want to! There are colleagues too. Talk about a case, bro! Seriously!” jay said while showing some piles of documents on his apartment desk and some friends who were also reading some documents. 

“Ah okay, deh! Sorry disturb! Want to do it first ga?” ask Justin again. 

“Ga need, notar if there is a chance I go to you guys deh nyamperin,” said Jay.

“Udah first yes!” continued.

“Okey, Good luck with the case, Bro!” justin again. 

“Thanks,” said Jay and he immediately closed the phone. 

Jay stayed in position. His face looks sad. 

“I hope you are happy, Min.” Jay muttered in a sad tone. He clenched his hand holding back his disappointment. 

“Sir, we got a lead!” said one of the men who read the documents.

“Okay, I’ll be there soon,” Jay replied while turning and smiling. 

He breathed a long enough breath, throwing away the uncomfortable feeling that after he found the sight of Mina and Yungi had been trailing his mind turned and walked towards his co-workers and joined in their busy lives.

For Jay, Mina was his first love and he never intended to express it, especially when the intensity of their meetings was more frequent and they became closer. She chooses silence, but at the same time gives her best ability for Mina to see her presence. She's been heartbroken twice by Mina. First, when Mina is betrothed to Awan and second when Mina asks Yungi to marry her. True, he supported their relationship, but there was one thought as well and a feeling that they might not last long. It was those thoughts and feelings that made her endure that Mina would eventually end up with him. 

Love and feelings are difficult to explain. That is also the reason Jay does not accept arranged marriages from his parents. She chose singles and buried her personal life by showing her achievements in her career and work while waiting that one day with everything she had, she desperately hoped that Mina would turn her head towards her, open her heart and be with him. That would be his greatest happiness. He had no problem with Mina ever being with anyone. He knew everything about Mina. At least that's how he thinks. Until finally, his thinking was missed, especially when the scene on the phone just now. Now her feelings are controlling, erratic, and like she's starting to freeze. Chilly. And he has not yet decided what he will do to overcome his grief.
