Second by second time spun without pause. It is like the morning changes at dusk, and the night picks up the afternoon. The life we go through must go on, even with a limped step. The wound will heal when the time comes. Every process that accompanies it is a learning towards self-maturity.

Without notice, it has been two years Nathan left Widya. Two years is a hard time for that girl. How he learned to recant, how he tried to heal his mind, and how he tried to rise from his slump. All thanks to the support of those closest to him.

Widya felt that all this time Harsa always tried to make her smile. He knows that Harsa's attention is not just the attention of a friend. Plus the Harsa family who loved him very much. Actually Widya wanted to step up and start trying to open her heart. But every time he tried, Nathan's shadow was still strong in his mind. Finally, Widya also gave everything to the Almighty. May God give his best.

“Bun, looks like Widya will be home tonight. Widya had to survey building materials for the project in Bogor,”, Widya said between breakfasts with her parents.

“Widya go with whom?” ask Arini.

“Harsa and Zakir, Bun.” Widya then put in her first feed.

“Oh, yes, already. Mommy is calmer if you are with them,” said Arini with a shady smile.

“Oya, Mother also do not be tired! Mommy just monitor it, let everything be done mbak-mbak in the store,” message Widya.

“Iya, Mommy remember, really. Widya also has to take care of health, yes!” Arini gave back advice.

For three months Arini has set up a small cake shop next door. At that time the owner of the house needed a fee for the treatment of his mother, so the house was sold at a price far below the market price. Widya also thought about opening a cake shop for Arini's mother. So far, the customer has been many. It looks like it will be easier to sell. Accompanied by two people that Arini trusted, start them with his new venture. The name bakery aroma is displayed in front of their store.

“Wid, who's lunch time?” ask Ayu-one of the room friends sitting next to her.

“No appointment yet, anyway. Why?” widya replied without diverting her attention from the image on the monitor on her desk.

“Actually from yesterday-yesterday I want you to eat meatballs in the corner there. But you're busy. Always have the same lunch boss sir,” og Ayu in a disappointed tone.

Widya stopped playing her finger on top of her computer keyboard. He looked at Ayu who had looked gloomy earlier. It's not usually Ayu like that. Here Widya felt guilty, having ignored someone who was nearby. During this time Widya was too busy with herself to not realize that there were other people nearby besides the gang ‘Friends Forever.’

“OK, later we eat meatballs,” said Widya smiling back Ayu's eyes. Ayu also smiled with a happy twinkle that emanated from the look of her eyes.

Widya immediately finished her drawing before handing it to Harsa. Harsa who was busy from morning, had not had time to greet Widya today. Early in the morning he had gone out of the office to review the project. By noon, the phone on Widya's desk shook. Harsa's name was plastered on her green screen.

“Assalamaicum, Sa. What's up?” ask Widya.

[I'll be at the office soon. We eat in the usual places, huh?] answer Harsa from across.

Widya glanced at Ayu who was sitting next to her. Recalling his bright smile earlier, he could not bear to cancel his lunch appointment with her.

[Wid, you're still there, ‘right?] reset Harsa.

“Iya, Sa. But sorry, I have a lunch appointment,” said Widya.

[Whose same?] Possessive mode Harsa directly work. Prepare to face all possibilities.

[Oyeah, already. Kirain lo has a client appointment. Then I eat at the office deket shop as well, ] Harsa was relieved to hear Widya's reply.

Soon their cell phone connection ended. Widya returns to finish her project before Harsa arrives at the office. Finally lunch hour arrived. Widya and Ayu immediately cleared their table.

“Come, Wid!” invite Ayu who was replied to a nod by Widya.

The two of them walked towards the meatball shop a few meters away from his office. It turns out that at lunchtime like this, the store is very crowded. With agility Ayu looked for an empty place, while Widya just followed from behind. After getting a seat, Ayu immediately ordered meatballs and iced oranges for them. Within minutes, the order arrived.

“Hm ... delicious too,” Widya said after tasting the meatball sauce that looks so tempting.

“Newly know? This rib meatball is very famous, loh, Wid,” said Ayu with sparkling eyes.

“Oya, why I just found out,” regrets Widya.

“You, anyway, too often eat the same Boss in a fancy place. So do not know there is a viral meatball near the office,” said Ayu. “Oya, you, ‘kan, deket same Boss. If you may know, sir Boss already have what not?” tanya Ayu whispered a little.

“Pak Boss? Which boss means. Harsa what is Zakir?” ask Widya. During this time the people in the office knew that the three of them were best friends since High School so it was no wonder to see the closeness between the three.

“Pak Harsa, dong. Looks like I fell in love just as charmingly,” Ayu replied lightly with her face blushing in embarrassment.

Ayu's reply suddenly made Widya choke. Kunyahan meatballs in his mouth suddenly just slide by itself through his throat. That made Widya cough and become the center of attention in the room. Widya immediately sipped her orange ice and tried to calm her heart that suddenly felt pain.

“You why, Wid. Sorry I made you choke,” regret Ayu.

“Ngak papa,” Widya said after everything was conditioned.

Next, they spent their lunch without any conversation. Ayu was afraid that Widya would be distracted by her talk. They finished before the lunch hour ended and returned to the office when the atmosphere was still not crowded. There were only a few people in the room. Widya and Ayu immediately returned to their place.

“My question was not answered, Wid,” said Ayu suddenly made the attention of Widya who was about to turn on her computer began to divert.

“Which question?”

“Pak Harsa already has a bustle what not. You guys, ‘kan, temen close. Definitely know, dong.” Ayu looked at Widya expectantly.

Widya smiled at Ayu, not knowing what to answer. In fact, between him and Harsa there is no commitment. Although Widya feels more attention from a friend and again in the past they were lovers. It is undeniable that there is a sense of tightness that disturbs Widya's heart to hear Ayu's confession.

‘What I'm jealous of,’ inner Widya in her daydream.
