"Help... help me... please... !!!"
From an alley not too far from the campus of Harvard University, there was a voice of people asking for help.
Riko immediately searched where the source of the sound was.
"Please..help me.. please. is anyone there.." The sound is getting closer.
After a while of searching, he finally saw two thugs with the face of a middle bule trying to disturb a girl. Riko who really likes to act spontaneously then approached the thug while saying.
"Hey man.. aren't you ashamed to both a girl?"
"Hay man... aren't you ashamed to bother a girl?"
Hearing that there was a male voice intruding on their pleasure, one of the thugs immediately turned to look at Riko and said.
"It's none of your business, snotty boy!!!"
"It's none of your business snot boy!!! "
Apparently Riko was prepared if the two thugs would beat him up. His body is sturdy and proportional, enough to capital nakutin thugs bule. He came closer and said again,
"Of course now it's my business because that girl is my lover!"
"Surely now it is my business because that girl is my lover! "
"Is that true?" ask the thug in a surprised tone because of Riko's confession.
"Is that true?"
"What's the point of me lying to you guys?" Riko Balik asked without the slightest trepidation.
"What good is it that I lied to you?"
The two thugs tried to gang up on Riko. One book right at the corner of Riko's lips made her a little scuffed.
The girl panicked instead of playing.she tried to go looking for help but no one passed by in the quiet alley. When the girl returned, it turned out that Riko managed to beat back the two thugs so they ran away in droves. In addition to the basketball champion, it turns out Riko is also a taekwondo athlete in his college first. Let alone two thugs, five at a time he will beat up if they disturb a weak girl.
"Well..Where was the plum, brother?" the girl asked surprised to see that Riko was already there alone.
"Avoidly escaped. Therefore, do not be brave by going through this kayak road alone! Looking for trouble? Would anyone have passed by? You want to hold that thug alone?" said Riko ketus.
"Yes Sak. sorry.." said the beautiful girl with a regretful face also impressed with the courage of Riko.
"I'm sorry? Make what?" ask Riko.
"I'm sorry to hurt you, this is." said the girl as she held out her handkerchief to clean the wound on the tip of Riko's lips.
Riko accepted it without saying anything.
"Actually, I also never went through here, just rushed because it was too late to go to college. I had to pass through here, although the area here is prone to passing, but I can get there faster." continued the girl.
"Well, you yourself know this place of danger! Still reckless through here." replied Riko as he moved to leave.
"Eh... Wait!!!" call the girl.
"What's wrong?" Riko stopped without turning around.
"Thank you for saving me" said the girl.
"Certainly? Haven't you? I'm leaving...!" riko.
"Eh... A second?" the girl caught up and suddenly was already in front of Riko.
"If you may know, whose name is Brother? Eeemmm, that is, we are both from Indonesia, maybe we can be friends." said the girl.
"Riko.." he said coldly and then passed away.
"Sister Riko wait!" the girl followed Riko.
"What else? You want to follow me away?" ask Riko.
"I'm sorry. sweep my hand." said the girl asking for her handkerchief.
"Oh..this...!" riko replied a little embarrassed thinking the girl was about to follow her.
"Thank you.... Assalamu'alaikum.." The girl then went ahead of Riko.
"Hhhuufft!" Riko spoke to herself as she prepared to leave. Moments later, he saw a pink wallet lying on the street.
"Whose wallet is this?" Riko took.
"Mistakenly, it must belong to the girl I saved earlier" said Riko while running to find the girl but apparently Riko had lost track. Finally he decided to bring the wallet and then return it when he knew the identity of the wallet owner.

That night, Riko put her body on the bed.
"Astaghfirullah thing 'adzim... I did not bring the purse of the girl I helped? Why inget new anyway.pity that girl must be nyariin." said Riko.
He picked up the pink wallet he had found. Next, he took out the identity card in it to find out the owner of the wallet. Inside the wallet is an ATM, ID card, Passport, Student card, close up photo and a business card that says "Amara Shaza Qamira (Shaza)".
"Oh. so the girl's name, Shaza. when seen quite beautiful too anyway." said Riko.
"Husss... what the hell are you, Riko. nyari identity even digress." said Riko when looking at a photo of the girl in the wallet.
Riko found no whatsapp in the business card and immediately contacted Shaza's number and sent a photo of the wallet.

Shaza who had been dizzy since this morning looking for his lost wallet was now relieved after getting news from Riko.
"Alhamdulilah..thank you, O Allah. ahirnya.. if the windfall is not going anywhere." said Shaza in his room.
"So this is Riko's number? All right, I'll keep it. Eeemm.. quite handsome also tuh guy, just. baby... juteknya not kelulungan." said Shaza after seeing Riko's profile in whatsapp.
Indeed, ever since his heartbreak because of his love was always rejected for the umpteenth time by Gendhis, Riko turned into a cold figure in women. Maybe if the reason Gendhis refused was not because of his brother, Riko would have taken it until he could get Gendhis. But for the happiness of two people he loved, finally Riko relented. Now instead of trying to open her heart to another girl, she shuts her heart tightly. Therefore, now Riko turned into a cool and cuek guy to make a grumpy girl and compete to get Riko's heart. But unfortunately, no one has been able to conquer the cold heart like the north pole.
I don't know when Riko will be able to move on from Gendhis. It's actually not that difficult as long as Riko wants to. He actually knows, just doesn't want to.
