...***...

As Khanif said yesterday, Rania has prepared all her needs. He just had to wait for Khanif to come pick him up. Mom and Dad always accompany Rania. He wants to see Rania's boss bring their beloved daughter to work out of town.

Long wait, finally Khanif's car was seen entering the yard of Rania's house. The longer the car gets closer, until it stops right at the entrance of the house. Look, there's a man coming out the right door.

Rania who found out, then said to her parents, "pa, ma. He's Rania's boss, Mr. Khanif."

Papa just walked over to Khanif who had just arrived at his door. Khanif smiled kindly, whereas papa only displayed his flat face. Papa then told Khanif to go inside the house.

Khaniftau, not as good as if he wanted to take Rania away because of business. For this reason, Khanif still entered Rania's house, even though the flight schedule was not long. He does it as a sign of respect to Rania's parents.

Just now that Khanif was sitting on the sofa, papa had already raised a question to him. "How long are you going to be gone?" ask papa repeatedly. Long before, my dad knew it.

"We'll be gone for four days sir."

"As my son is fine, if when I go home later, I find there is one wound on his body, I will not hesitate to deal with you," explained papa.

Of course, as the only daughter in Papa Rudy's family, Papa doesn't want anything bad to happen to his daughter. For this reason, papa is firm, so that the man in front of him understands that papa really does not want to make his son hurt.

Rania who was near papa, just immediately felt bad. Where are they going? But after hearing Khanif say, "I promise."

Rania was so relieved, because she thought Khanif would say the opposite or considered her father too excessive in looking after her.

"That's all I want to hear directly from you. All right, I won't hold you back anymore. You can leave now."

Khanif rose from his seat, as did everyone there. Then Rania kissed her parents' hands as a sign of her goodbye.

"Rania go first, ma,"

"Hem, be careful while you're there. If there's anything, call Rey right away," said Mama Dahlia.

"Yes ma, definitely."

Rania turns to Papa and says the same thing.

"Be careful there, after you get to call papa directly."

"Yes, pa. Rania pamit's. Assalamualaikum."

"Wa'alaikumsalam" answered Rania's parents.

Rania pulls her suitcase but not for long because Khanif immediately picks it up to put it in the trunk of the car. After that, they got into the car. As the car started to speed, Rania waved her hand until papa and mama were nowhere to be seen anymore.

Just as the car came out of the residential area that Rania was living in, Rania suddenly said, "I'm sorry for my father's words. My dad loves me very much." 

"No need to apologize. It's only natural that your father would say that to me. Especially when you know, you want to be away from their supervision. Every daughter in one family will always be cared for more by their father. So it's okay, you don't have to feel bad for me because I understand."

After that brief conversation, silence ensued between them along the road to the airport. I don't know, they both dissolve in their thoughts.

Arriving at the airport yard, they both got out of the car. Khanif then headed for the trunk of the car, taking out his suitcase and Rania's suitcase.

"Thank you sir" said Rania.

"Either. Wait a minute here, I want to talk to my driver first."

Rania nodded in response. Khanif then approached the driver who was still loyal to sit in his steering chair because of Khanif's man.

"Sir, thank you for driving us. You can go home now."

"Together den. Aden be careful there, about the security of the house just leave it to the father and the security guard."

"Yes sir."

Not long after waiting, their flight information in the city of M was heard. Khanif stood up, so did Rania who started following Khanif's footsteps.

Rania is bored, really the trip this time is not too fun. However, this unpleasant journey was not caused by Khanif, but by Rania herself. He felt lonely because there was no one he could talk to. Like when he was out of town with his family.

In her heart, Rania was eager to get Khanif to speak to dispel her allotment, but seeing Khanif's unfriendly face, she did not dare to ask him to speak first. Not because of anything, he just did not want to feel disappointed because it was not welcomed warmly or rather, did not reply to Rania's conversation invitation.

Rania breathed a heavy sigh. He is really bored at the moment. Wanting to close his eyes, his eyes did not want to be friendly. Wanting to invite the man beside her to speak, the man beside her had closed his eyes a while ago. Really boring.

Just as Rania was about to try to close her eyes, suddenly from the side of Khanif, there was a man who invited himself to speak. Although Rania and the man were at the end of the same row of seats and despite knowing the position of Khanif who was in the middle, harming him who wanted to be close to Rania, unkempt also dampened the spirit of the man trying to invite him to talk.

"Hello introduce, I'm Alex," said the man.

"Hello, I'm Rania" said Rania.

"I see you so uncomfortable. If you may know, what makes you uncomfortable. If I can help, then I'll help."

"Oh that! I was just bored because I had no interlocutor when my eyes would not sleep," said Rania actually to make Khanif sensitive to him. But seeing Khanif did not give a response back, Rania instead increased deliberately to make Khanif sensitive.

"I can accompany you to chat."

"It seems like you're a person who gets along quickly with others. I mean I."

"of course. But earlier, you had to change your call to me to be, me - you. Not me-you."

"Ah, yes. Of course that's a good suggestion. But baby, I'm used to wearing My call - You."

After saying that, Rania suddenly regained her senses. He just remembered that all this time, he and Khanif called each other with the call of 'me' and 'you' which is somewhat awkward for a short call. So all this time they were never very familiar from then and now.

Did Rania ever hear them call me and you sound more familiar? Of course not the answer. Because it has been a long time ago, Khanif has made a strong fortress that can not be penetrated between them.

Yes, since they were close at high school, both Rania and Khanif, still maintain my call and you are somewhat awkward for a short call to someone who is fairly close. Originally Rania wanted to change their call to me - you to sound familiar. However, seeing Khanif who always took care of themselves if they looked closer, made Rania not dare to change it. Rania was sad, she turned her head and saw the neatly arranged clouds in the sky that were so blue.

"Rania!" call Alex.

Rania jerks. He immediately woke up from his momentary daydream. He felt bad for Alex who might have been waiting for the following conversation from him.

"I'm sorry, I'm starting to get sleepy" said Rania.

"Don't sleep first. Keep me talking for a minute."

"I can't."

"You can do it" he forced.

Initially, Rania welcomed the invitation to the conversation. However, over time the conversation even made Rania regret. He seemed not to want to admit that he had invited the man beside the Khanif to speak.

Especially if this conversation starts to seem coercive from the other party. Rania doesn't like it much. If allowed to vote again, Rania will choose to be bored until they arrive in the city of M rather than repeating their conversation.

"Rania," call Alex. Just as Alex's hand was about to cross over to touch Rania's hand, suddenly there was a hand holding her hand.
