Chapter 20: The Journey of Rangga

"Byyy I passed the thesis hearing" said Rangga with a smile and happy feeling, he delivered the happy news when he invited Tyshia home from work.

"Oh congrats yes" Tyshia said with an expressionless flat face.

"Byy you why else?" asked Rangga, his happy smile immediately disappeared when the girl he loved seemed unhappy with the happy news he conveyed.

"Well, if you want to go, go!! Marry the woman who has been waiting for you in Indonesia" said Tyshia while holding back her tears, then she walked first to leave Rangga, she did not want Rangga to know if she was sad.

rangga ran after Tushia then held Tyshia's hand holding her back to go "What the hell are you talking byy? I don't understand"

"It's fitting that all this time you insist on going back to Indonesia, it turns out there is someone you want to apply to" Tyshia was no longer able to hold back her tears, she said, slowly those clear circles fell on her beautiful face.

"Lammar?" rangga asked increasingly cluelessly what Tyshia was talking about.

"Have not dodged it again, was the morning I found a ring on your study table" Tyshia threw Rangga's hand and ran to the bus stop.

Rangga also ran after Tyshia, with breathless breath he saw Tyshia about to climb into the bus Rangga yelling "The ring is for you byy, he said, I'd like to take you to a romance dinner and give you that ring"

Hearing Rangga's words, Tyshia stopped her steps, she turned around and walked towards Rangga "Is it really for me?" tyshia asked in disbelief.

"Yes of course for you, for whom else? I deliberately bought two, one for myself and the other for you. I want us both to fortify ourselves, at least if a woman sees me wearing the ring then she'll think I have a wife, and vice versa. Wouldn't that make our hearts equally calmer and we focus more on our goals?" tanya Rangga looked into Tyshia's eyes deeply

Tyshia nodded her head, she did not expect Rangga to think that far and seriously as she was.

"I'm just as scared as you are, I don't want to lose you" Rangga wiped away the rest of Tyshia's tears still soaking her pretty face.

"I'm sorry I was mistaken for you" said Tyshia, she was embarrassed to have misjudged Rangga.

Rangga smiled at the misunderstanding between himself and Tyshia, "So when are we romancing dinner?" rangga asked in a teasing tone to Tyshia so that Tyshia would not be sad anymore.

"What if it's tomorrow night?"

"Maybe, I'll find a good place for us to have dinner" said Rangga.

"Don't, we'll eat in an ordinary place" Tyshia said.

"How come?"

"I want to be there"

"Well my queen" said Rangga, then he drove Tyshia back to her flat.

Arriving in front of the flat, Rangga looked back into Tyshia's eyes and grabbed her hand "Byy, I promise I will accompany you to study just like you did yesterday to me until you graduate and give your best value to me" Rangga.

Tyshia smiled and nodded her head, then she walked into her flat.

The next day Rangga kept his promise, after work he invited Tyshia to dinner at his usual place and Tyshia to dinner.

"Byyy kaya miss her ring" Rangga looks panicked while looking around in her bag.

"Can't you?" Tyshia was also panicked.

"So morning I forget to enter the bag" said Rangga.

"Yes, it's tomorrow again"

Rangga approached Tyshia then he knelt in front of her .

"Byy, keep your heart for me yes until we are together again" Rangga put the ring on Tyshia's ring finger, then Rangga put Tyshia's hand on her cheek.

Tyshia traced Rangga's eyebrows and face with her soft hands, then she pinched Rangga's nose.

"Auuu is sick byy" Rangga returned to his seat while holding his flushed nose.

"Don't eat it" Tyshia said resentfully.

"Yes yes... Replace pakein dong" Rangga extended his hand before Tyshia.

"Sister Rangga also yes take care of my brother's heart for me" Tyshia gently stroked Rangga's hand, Rangga smiled as he nodded his head.

Arriving on the day that all American University students and students, including Rangga, on that special day Rangga came to his graduation with a friend by his lover.

Using a modern kebaya in broken white and combined with a long songket cloth, Tyshia appeared gracefully beautiful to make Rangga unceasingly look at Tyshia.

"Byyy I'm embarrassed, why look at me like that?" Tyshia looked embarrassed.

"Today you're beautiful, dear" Rangga was fascinated by Tyshia's beauty and elegance.

"Areally I'm not pretty?" tyshia asked pouty.

"Beautiful, you are beautiful every day. Thank you for coming with me, yesterday thought not to follow this event."

"Why?"

"There was only my contact father, but he was accompanying Aunty who was about to undergo surgery. While my sisters are still in school and college, they cannot come here" continued Rangga.

"There is me" Tyshia gripped Rangga's hand, so as not to grieve on her special day.

He is very happy to be with you and close to you, he is also proud of the man who is currently next to him, can survive and excel in the country of people even without the support of both biological parents.

If his father does not approve of him, he will still fight for Rangga because he loves Rangga so much and Rangga is worth fighting for.

"Byyy kok daydreaming, you sit there yes but beside the mothers" said Rangga while showing a seat for invited guests.

"Hu'um" Tyshia stepped her feet towards the chair for the invited guest.

Graduation event took place hikmad, finished graduation ceremony Rangga introduced Tyshia to his friends as his wife, Tyshia did not mind what was said by Rangga, he was very happy and proud.

Rangga invited Tyshia to take a picture with him, while taking pictures with Tyshia, Rangga lowered his head when he saw some of his friends who gathered and took pictures with his family.

"Don't be sad! there will be me who will continue to accompany you and support you" Tyshia stroked Rangga's arm gently.

"Thank you byy, I was like seeing my Almh.Umiku figure inside you" said Rangga staring at the beautiful face of his lover. Tyshia smiled sweetly while nodding her head.

Towards the afternoon Rangga invited Tyshia back to the flat, on the way home Tyshia asked how much GPA Rangga, because at the time of the stage only mentioned his name and faculty, Tyshia was very surprised when Rangga said that his GPA was 3.89

"What do you eat, byy, can be that smart?" tyshia asked in amazement.

"hahaha.. eat you Hauuum...."

"Iiiiiih Nyebelin" Tyshia again pinched Rangga's hand in annoyance.

" Kidding byy."

"When do you plan to return to Indonesia?"

"I still have to take care of the diploma and others, later if everything is in order then I go home. I have applied my CV at several companies in Jakarta."

"Director? isn't Rangga's house in Jogja?" ask Tyshia.

"There's a company that I've been looking for a long time, doain yes I can get a job there"

"Definitely dong dear, then later Kak Rangga live where?)

"I've been looking for hostels through the internet, there have been some that fit. Staying later waiting for which company will accept me, I will choose the nearest boarding house" said Rangga.

"Byy wait for me until I can give the best for you yes" continued Rangga.

Tyshia nods her head, her eyes tearfully holding back her day, she does not regret her decision to get out of the luxury apartment given by her father and work as a cashier in a coffee shop just to accompany Rangga.

While taking care of his diploma and waiting for his work test call Rangga still works in a coffee shop together with Tyshia, and Tyshia still with his habit of always making food for Rangga even though Rangga has repeatedly banned it.

"Later if I miss your cooking how?" said Rangga while opening an email on his phone.

"Just wait until I get back to Indonesia, haha..." Tyshia said with a laugh.

"Byy, there were three companies that responded to my email. Of the three, only one has a test schedule this week, I'm asking next week what do you think?"

"It's okay, you can ask not next week, you give the right reason with formal language"

"Tomorrow I'll go to college and take care of all my papers. If I have time I'll work but if not I'll just pick you up"

"It's darling"

Everything went smoothly, finished taking care of his diploma Rangga take care of his return to Indonesia, Tyshia helped Rangga packing his belongings.

"It's all byy" Tyshia said as she closed Rangga's last suitcase.

"Thank you baby, I don't know how it would be if there were no you" said Rangga, he did not know what to thank the beautiful girl who always helped him.

"Because, yes we are in the airport, later you are late" said Tyshia, he also helped Rangga carry his suitcase into a taxi that had been waiting for him in front of the flat.

Along the way to the airport, Rangga clasped Tyshia's hand tightly.

"You don't work anymore, I don't want you to go home alone. If I'm on payroll I transfer, focus on your studies. If there's anything to call me right away, every night I'll keep you studying"

"You're also heart - heart yes byy, take care of health."

Heavy for both of them to release their hands, when Rangga was about to enter the airport.

"Don't be sad, if you're sad, I'm sad too. Thank you for the beautiful days we've been through, I'm waiting for you in Jakarta" Rangga wiped away the tears dripping on Tyshia's cheeks.

"I'm going, baby" Rangga stroked Tyshia's arm and entered the airport

Tyshia stands staring at the departure of her lover, although Rangga's body is no longer visible Tyshia is still reluctant to leave the airport.
