"Sorry." Ucup walking did not look in front of his partner from earlier just looking down so he hit a man."

"Yes, I'm sorry.Abang Ucup why?" Aqila saw the impactor turned out to be Ucup, she looked towards the lethargic face of Ucup.

"It's okay, then excuse me first." Ucup looked at Aqila's face then forced himself to smile, after which he walked away leaving Aqila who just kept staring at Ucup's departure.

After the departure of Ucup, Aqila seemed to realize that Ucup was having problems it could be seen from the face of Ucup who had looked sad and not excited. When walking away leave him too like that.

Ucup had already walked away from Aqila, he just wanted to leave the campus immediately. Ucup is embarrassed to be on campus for too long. So he decided to walk away immediately.

"Ucup." Gustaf who saw Ucup immediately called Ucup. But Ucup just kept going regardless of Gustaf's call.

"That's Ucup, how he called you." Feri pointed his finger at Ucup who was walking in a hurry.

"Well that's him, maybe he didn't hear me call him." Gustaf thought positively that Ucup did not hear the voice he was calling his name, so Ucup did not answer and walked away from campus.

"It could be," Feri said.

Ucup continued to walk even though he actually listened to Gustaf's voice calling his name but for now Ucup felt alone. So Ucup rushed to walk away from the campus he just wanted to leave the campus immediately. If Ucup is longer on the campus then his chest will be more tight feeling that he must leave the campus within 6 months.

Ucup is already in the campus parking lot, he immediately rides his bike and he rides his motorcycle. Ucup drove his bike without having a purpose, he was confused about where to go because of the feeling that was not decisive. Finally Ucup decided to go to Zai school, Ucup drove his motorcycle towards Zai school.

Ucup was already near the gate of Zai school. Ucup thought about his bike while waiting for Zai to go home from school. Ucup took out a pack of cigarettes and a match from his pants pocket.
