The diamond spontaneously nodded as the star's shady eyes hypnotized him to agree. 

The star smiled in relief and moved hugging her body tightly. Diamond felt his heart pounding in his arms. 

"there's still something I'm going to give you" said the star after releasing his embrace. 

"what else? this is all more than enough. You don't have to give me anything anymore" 

The stars ignore the word diamond. His hand moved to grab the wallet he had placed on the nightstand beside his bed, then he took out an atm card. 

"This is for you" The star hands the atm card to the Diamond hand.

"What's this for?" 

"Geez Lian, this is an atm card, cook you don't know what it's for?" nagel Star Scuffles see the innocence of Diamond.

"Yes, I know it's an atm card. What do you mean to give this to me?" 

The star took a deep breath first throwing away his frustration at the innocent attitude of his wife who did not understand the purpose and purpose of giving the atm card. 

"This card I gave to you for your needs. If you need and want something, you can use this card to buy everything you need" 

"Should ya, I take this card?" 

The star glared in annoyance protesting his wife's question. 

"It doesn't have to be anymore, it's mandatory. Because I do not want to be a laughing stock because it is considered abandoning his own wife because it does not provide for the birth needs of his wife" said Bintang firmly and did not want to be refused the gift. 

"Yes.I accept.." replied Diamond.

"But I didn't ask, you love this" continued Diamond cut off her husband's smile. 

"As much as you want to say what, the important thing is that you accept and use it well only for your needs. Don't let me hear you abuse him" Bintang said, giving a little reprimand to his wife. 

"Without you warning me I also know how to use your trust well" Diamond replied a little annoyed at her husband's lack of trust. 

"Then you try to wear the jewelry I bought. I want to see you wear it" 

"I dressed it myself?" 

"yes, who else?" 

The diamond flashed and his face instantly turned manyun.

"Basically a 'Star, there is no romance. It should be you who put this jewelry together, not myself" the Diamond snorted inwardly. 

"Why are you quiet?" ask the stars. 

"The jewelry I keep first. I can't wear it this night. We don't want to travel either, do we?" reject Fine diamond hide her annoyance.

She also went down to store jewelry and atm giving her husband into the closet. 

"Do you really not like my gifts?. Why is it that when I ask you to wear it you refuse and keep the jewelry?" The star asked inwardly with a disappointed look. 

"It's night. We sleep yuk" Diamond back to bed and lay down his body that feels tired after almost a day of sightseeing. 

"Yes..." 

The star lazily laid down its body. His eyes were not immediately closed. The unsettled diamond closed its eyes, slowly opening its eyes at the Star. 

"Bin, are you sleeping?" Diamond rubbed his face gently. The star spontaneously held Diamond's hand to keep her face. 

"Now you sleep" said the meek Diamond ushering in a powerful spell of lulling the Stars.

...****************...

On a clear morning, Diamond just got a call from her best friend Kartika. Diamond was so excited and immediately met her husband who was in the room and was busy installing his own tie. The diamond without saying took over pairing the tie.

"Bin, today I want to meet Kartika outside. You don't mind if I go with Tika?" Diamond asked her husband's permission while his hands continued to work tidying up the tie.

"Why should it be with him?. Don't you have any friends besides him?" Stars don't like to hear Diamonds coming to Kartika.

"What's wrong with tika?. tika my best friend, she also still has a brotherly bond with you, right?" 

"He's not my brother" the Star refuted with a glare of his sharp eyes. 

"Why do I feel that you hate him so much?. What's wrong?" Diamond asked with a curious look of curious face. 

"He's not wrong. But it was the people around him who made him wrong" the Star said. 

"You mean?" diamond frowned, he was made more curious there is a bad story in store Bintang so do not like the kartika and his family. 

"If you want to go, just go. But you should be back before 3 p.m. I don't want you to linger out there" Bintang was forced to agree because he didn't want Diamond to ask too many questions about his antipathy with the Kartika family.

"Thank you" Diamonds scatter happily embrace the Stars.

"I promise, before three o'clock, I'll be home" he promised. 

A sweet smile expands from both corners of the lips of the Star as soon as it feels the warmth of the Diamond's close embrace. The stars did not hesitate to kiss the crown and forehead of Diamond which was greeted with a cheerful smile by Diamond.

In Kartika's bookstore, Diamond looks so proud and should see his Rainbow Scratches book plastered on the bookshelf and so the choice of some visitors who come to buy and read at the place provided. 

"Lian, we're in my room. There's something important I want to talk about" Kartika asked. 

"yuk...." 

The two friends went hand in hand to Kartika's working room which was medium-sized, but neat and clean. 

"Today I was contacted by a publisher. They asked me to hand over the final payment of your book" 

Kartika sat down to discuss what he had to say and handed him an envelope containing documents and proof of payment to his best friend who sat opposite him. 

"Thank you very much" Diamond said sincerely while receiving the envelope without intending to open it because he believed in his best friend.

"The publisher also requested that you finish your second book as soon as possible and they challenged you to make a new novel again" Kartika told the news he received from the publisher who contracted his work.

"If it's a new novel, I'm not sure if I'll be able to because I can't carelessly tell a story without giving a clear picture as well as the benefits that many people can get if reading my novel. That's it, now I'm married. The stars don't know about my hobbies. I'm not ready to tell him "toward Diamond with doubts about his abilities. 

"That's it" kartika mangosteen-beard the sign of understanding. 

"eh yes ... Today there's a book review by a renowned author in one of the malls near here. I got a special invitation to attend. You can come with me and you can ask questions and learn a lot from the author. You want to come, right?" 

"You.mau.mau." replied Diamond unhesitatingly and vigorously. 

"We're leaving now, one hour to start" 

Kartika moved from her seat, as did the Diamond. Both of them went out of the store and set out using a silver car owned by Kartika.
