In accordance with the promise, Melisa and Rere came to visit Via, they arrived at Via's house around 5 pm, even they were both asked to come to dinner together there. Because it is not good to refuse, then the two join in the same dining table with the Via family who is like their own family morning Melisa and Rere. Both were allowed to go home after dinner.
Exactly at half-nine in the evening, Melisa had just arrived home, before she had asked permission for Mama to have dinner at Via's house. And of course Mama will allow it!
Melisa took the time to say hello to Arkan and Erlan before entering her room, Arkan himself was busy working on assignments in the study room, as well as Erlan who was repeating the lesson with Mama, who was also working on the job, so Melisa decided to just go to her room and not bother them.
After cleaning herself and making sure that she has completed all her schoolwork, Melisa also laid her body on the mattress, her right hand pulled a pillow bolster, while her left hand grabbed the mobile phone on the nightstand.
Melisa remembered what Gibran said about her mother. Making Melisa immediately slide to Instragram, as Melisa recalled, she had seen a photo of Gibran with her family!
"Emmm, how can you be a stranger to his face?" muttered Melisa while continuing to think where she had seen the same face as Mama Gibran's face!
Melisa keeps trying to remember it, but unfortunately, Melisa doesn't remember any images. The face was no stranger to him!

Melisa again put her mobile phone after turning off mobile data on the table.
"Do you think Gibran knows my date of birth?" muttered Melisa.
"Eh, but I just don't know when her date of birth is?!"
Melisa stared at the ceiling of her room, actually how far did Gibran know her? And to what extent has he known Gibran all this time?!
"He knows my favorite food and drink, but me? I don't know anything about him! So it should be my feelings that deserve more doubt here, not her!" Melisa monologue.
"Okay Melisa, it's a relationship, so you can't be selfish anymore, understand each other and understand it must be, don't just you who want to be understood, but you also have to understand Gibran, do not just you want to be recognized further, because it is very unfair for your partner! Even if Gibran doesn't know, it shouldn't be a problem for you, right?" Inner Melisa.
"But should he know dong? They say love!"
Melisa immediately shook her head as soon as the question rose in her mind. Arguing with his own heart and mind was exhausting! Melisa has trouble sleeping. Finally Melisa decided to leave the room, intending to be fresh air.
The clock has shown at eleven o'clock at night, it looks like Mama, Arkan and Erlan are asleep now.
Melisa opened the refrigerator, intending to take a glass of cold drink, but the greeting from Mbak Indah surprised her even!
"Non Melisa?"
Melisa breathed out softly, then smiled at Mbak Indah. "Yes, why, Mother?"
"It's okay, why haven't you slept, Non?"
"Not sleepy, Ma'am."
"Emmm, if so, Non Melisa want Mbak memenin?"
"Don't, let's take a break!"
"Emmm, if so, go back first?"
"Please...."
With a heavy heart Mbak Indah left Melisa alone, actually she really wanted to accompany Melisa, but because Melisa refused, so she could not force as well.
Melisa walks towards the front yard, sitting on the park chair that always witnesses her meeting with Arkan, first. But tonight, Melisa just sat alone, staring at the night sky dotted with twinkling stars.
"I don't want to expect any more, I'm afraid I'm disappointed with my own expectations!" muttered Melisa.
Melisa took her cell phone out of the Hoodie pocket she was wearing. Open WhatsApp and see the status of WhatsApp Gibran uploading photos along with his friends. Suddenly a new chat came from Gibran.
Gibran :
Why haven't you slept, honey?
He said he was going to sleep.
^^^Melisa :^^^
^^^Nothing, not yet sleepy.^^^
Gibran :
I'm temenin ya!
^^^Melisa :^^^
^^^Do not.^^^
Gibran :
Wh why?
I'm in the apartment, honey.
I called ya?

Gibran immediately pressed the video call button, without waiting for approval from Melisa! Melisa couldn't resist either, because she basically did need someone right now!
"Well, where are you, honey?" gibran asked, seeing the garden lights behind Melisa.
"I'm in the front garden!"
"Cold, right?"
"Lumayan."
"Need a warm hug?"
Melisa smiled wickedly, then slightly raised her Mobile, showing that she was using a Hoodie that had warmed her body enough!
"Yes yes... But if you want to hug, tell me yes! I'm ready for a special free hug for Miss Melisa!"
"Yay, be happy! Haha...."
"Darling?" call Gibran half-whispering.
"Yes?"
"Get into the room, half these twelve tablets!"
"Yes, it's just coming in."
"Now!" gibran.
"Yes-yes." Melisa brought her drinking bottle, leaving the main park.
"Well, Melisaa? Where are you from, honey?" tania asked as soon as she saw Melisa opening the main door.
Instead of directly answering, Melisa instead secured her Mobile first, which still connected a video call with Gibran.
"Saving from the garden, Ma."
"Udah malem, honey, why go to the park alone?"
"Fresh air, Ma. Hehe."
"Yes, now go to the room, go to bed, tomorrow's school!"
"Ready, Ma!"
Tania rubbed Melisa's hair, kissing the girl's forehead, before letting her back into the room.
"Good night, honey."
"Good night too, Ma."
Melisa breathed a sigh of relief once she reached her room. He closed the door of the meeting room and did not forget to lock it as well.
The girl smiled as she looked at Gibran who was playing with her hair.
"Udah?" ask Gibran.
"Udah, really. Yes, it's in the room." Melisa showed me her neatly arranged room. A pink teddy bear given Via leaning pretty on his mattress.
"Okay, if that's right now to sleep!"
"Not sleepy!"
"Mama said what did you try? Go straight to sleep, right?!"
"Yes" said Melisa.
Gibran even smiled to see the resigned face of Melisa.
"Yes, I'm so sleepy!"
"Emmm, Gibran?"
"Yes, sweetheart... Why?"
"I can do a lot, right?"
"What do you want, hmm?"
"What is your favorite food?"
"Me?"
"Yes!"
"Fried rice! Complete with eggs, cucumbers, and crackers! I can eat anything, including you!"
"Damn, cannibal!"
"Hahahaha, kidding, my dear..."
"What's your favorite drink?"
"Young coconut water."
"Favorite color?"
"Black white."
"It's your date of birth, when?"
"Eight March.... Why the hell, honey?"
"Nothing, I want to know you even further!"
Gibran tried to resist salting with a thud and kept his face away from the camera for a while.
"Cie... Salting, huh??" seductive Melisa.
Gibran shook his head, but the smile and look on his face could not be invited to cooperate!
"Hahahaha, it can finally bales revenge as well!!!" said Melisa who is happy because she can repay Gibran's behavior.
"Observe you, yes!" threaten Gibran, anxious himself for not being able to reply Melisa.
"Thank you." said Melisa after a moment of silence.
"Thank you for?"
"Emmmm-" Melisa threw herself down on the bed, staring at Gibran's face still waiting for her to continue speaking. "That's why you've been there up to this point!"
"You don't have to thank me for that, honey... If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't know if I could have a point right now!"
Melisa smile. "Thank you.." he said.
"Together, Honey. Yes, yes, don't miss it! Smile again dong! Smile... Where's smile!!"
Melisa returned smiling with teary eyes.
"Udah, now you rest yes..."
"Where are you going?" ask Melisa.
"I'm not going anywhere, honey."
"Don't be beaten!"
"Ordinary call? I don't want to disturb your privacy!"
"Yes." Yeah."

Melisa doesn't know what she heard was real or just a dream. But he faintly heard Gibran speak softly, as if he were noisy near his ear. "Happy Birthday, honey...."
