As the meal went on, Widya was more silent and only occasionally responded to their small talk with a smile. Harsa, who noticed Widya's change in attitude since Nathan's family's departure, also felt compassion. He knows, Widya has indeed let Nathan go, but her love for Nathan is still so big and neatly stored in Widya's heart. He can understand, it must not be easy for Widya to forget all the good memories with Nathan.

"Gue realized Wid, there is no way I can replace Nathan's position in your heart, but I always pray that I have the opportunity to be the reason you are happy again," inner Harsa.

After the meal was over, they sat down to relax in the living room of Widya's house. "Where is Jeng Arini, we're on vacation together?" Evi still kekeh expressed his desire that had paused because of the arrival of Nathan's family earlier. "We haven't had a vacation in a long time either. Papa agrees, right?" Evi turned her attention to her husband.

"Papa follow how good. Mama set it up," replied Rendra with a friendly smile, "That's it, isn't it, Mr Bowo?" continued Rendra again while patting Bowo's shoulder.

"Yes Mr. Rendra, the important child and happy wife, we just follow,” said Bowo with a typical wise smile.

"If Widya, how?” Evi turned her eyes to Widya.

Not immediately answering, Widya turned to Arini and Bowo as if asking for approval. Bowo and Arini smiled and nodded in unison.

"Yes, Aunt. Widya come with.”

"Okay, Wid, we'll tell the others later. We use NTT services again. I was satisfied with their service yesterday. Just tell us where we're going, it's done, deh. Ready-to-go. You still have Maya's contacts, don't you, Wid?" Harsa who heard Widya's answer was happy, she was so enthusiastic about preparing for the holiday this time.

"Sa, what, even you who want a vacation?" rendra protest.

"Eh, no, Pa." Harsa was wrong. He scratched the nape that actually does not itch. Harsa tried to cover up the shame mixed with pleasure because of the papa's taunts. It certainly makes them all laugh at Harsa's behavior.

Widya also smiles at the interaction of Harsa and her papa. Although he has known Harsa for a long time, but only now Widya can meet face to face and chat longer with papa and mama Harsa. He did not expect it turned out that Harsa's parents were so kind and considerate of her. Until they are willing to spend time on the sidelines of his busy life to be able to berkilaturahmi and see firsthand the situation.

After getting the deal, around 13:00 WIB the Harsa family paid to go home. Arini and Bowo who initially did not want to take a vacation because it was not good to have to bother the Harsa family, finally want to come too. Eviyana managed to convince them that this was really sincere desire that he had long wanted, until finally Arini and Bowo agreed.

...***...

After returning home from Widya's house, Harsa can't wait to tell her mother's proposal for a vacation together with her friends. Immediately he conveyed everything through the group chat 'Friends Forever'.

Zakir and Karin enthusiastically welcomed the proposal. They also try to find tourist destinations that they have never visited.

Widya just smiled in response to the debate of her best friends in the chat room "Friends Forever". They still have not found a tourist destination that they will take later. Karin and Zakir dominated the debate there, while Kartika only occasionally responded.

Not felt, a drop of clear bulir slid freely wet Widya's cheeks. Those tears she couldn't stand. Widya is happy, her best friends never leave her even under any circumstances. They were always next to Widya, doing whatever it took to make her cheerful again.

The knock from behind the room door made Widya realize. Immediately he removed the remaining tears that for a while froth him in the taste of haru.

"Darling, are you asleep?" ask Arini from behind the door.

"Not yet, Mother. Just goin!" sahut Widya's.

After opening the room door, Arini approached Widya and sat down beside her. Widya immediately hugged the old body full of affection. He rested his head in the warm embrace of the mother. She felt warmth and comfort there. Coupled with Arini's swipe at the top of Widya's head, increasingly making Widya feel at home for long in the decapitation.

After a while, Widya broke her embrace. Arini pinched Widya's nose while saying, "Mother's son why? Very tumben, loh, long at home in your arms."

Arini smiled happily at the words of her daughter, she kissed Widya's forehead full of affection. "You're everything to mom and dad, son. Stay strong and always cheerful Widya, yes! Only you are the most valuable treasure for mother and father" said Arini.

"Yes, Mother," Widya replied briefly.

"Oh yeah, have you found a vacation destination yet, honey?" ask Arini.

"Still not yet, Bun. Still discussion. I think they were in a lot of group chat earlier." Widya chuckles at the silly behavior of her best friends.

"Yes already, you're sleeping, yeah! Remember Doctor Fitri's message yesterday, you still can't stay up much, loh," said Arini.

"Every Mother is beautiful, love Widya," replied Widya spoiled while putting her hand on the forehead, like paying respect to the red and white flag during the raising of the flag. Arini laughed in response to the princess's behavior.

After Arini came out of the room, Widya immediately went to sleep. Not to forget he wiped a photo of Nathan who is still faithful to decorate the wallpaper of his phone. "Good night, honey. In my dreams, yes. I'm missing" Widya said, looking at Nathan's photo. Widya smiled and kept her phone on the nightstand.

...***...

This morning, at 07:00 WIB Harsa has arrived at Widya's house. As usual, every Sunday they would make a pilgrimage to Nathan's tomb. It just so happens that today Zakir, Edo, Karin, and Kartika are not busy. The four of them also visited Nathan's grave.

Edo departs with Zakir, while Kartika as usual is picked up by Karin. They agreed to meet at Nathan's grave alone, to avoid the usual traffic jams that adorn the city of Jakarta on weekends.

At 07.30 WIB the six of them almost simultaneously arrived at Nathan's tomb. Soon Harsa led a prayer for the late Nathan. After praying and sowing flowers, as usual they would wait for Widya outside.

"Nathan, thank you for everything, honey. Although our story is not perfect, I am grateful to be an important part of your life. Thank you for teaching me so much about life. I promise, after this I will be as happy as you hope,” Widya said as she rubbed Nathan Putra Lesmana's tombstone.

After a while, Widya moved from Nathan's grave. He went out to meet his faithful companions waiting for him in front of the tomb. As per the agreement, they will discuss the holiday plans later at the Hamber Cafe. The three cars also drove through the streets of the capital.

Thirty minutes of time they took to get to Hamber Cafe. After ordering various food menus, the meeting immediately began. After going through a long debate they finally agreed to choose Raja Ampat as a tourist destination this time.

Raja Ampat Islands is a series of four adjacent island clusters and located in the west of the Bird's Head section of Papua Island. Administratively, this cluster is under Raja Ampat Regency, West Papua Province.

"Ok, we go to Raja Ampat, yes. I immediately contacted Maya so she could arrange everything. We just need to prepare for the holidays," said Harsa after reaching an agreement.

"Again," they exclaimed compactly.

Noer Tour and Travel (NTT) travel agencies are reliable. It only took three days all the travel needs were completed. Weekends are their holiday schedule.

Both the Harsa and Widya families also enjoyed their vacation very much. Although different ages, Harsa and Widya's parents can adapt to their children's friends. They stayed there for four days. Smile always expands to decorate Widya's face, she really enjoyed her vacation this time.

Togetherness with family and friends is a beautiful moment that Widya will always remember. He was so grateful to be among them. The support of his family and friends that always makes Widya unceasingly grateful.

Harsa who saw Widya's happiness was also happy, a glimmer of hope was still engraved in the recesses of her heart. He wants to be selfish, knocking on the door of the heart of the idol so that he can dwell in it. However, his guts were not that brave. Let the feeling in his heart he keeps until the time that will give a gap when he will dock.
