Love Story' Keyan & Valonia
A Pair of Rope Bracelets

The sun has risen, its light illuminates the earth from the darkness of night. As before, students began to arrive and enter the school gates.

This morning was very different, a school idol was standing near the entrance stairs to the schoolyard. Keyan stood while staring at the screen of his phone, occasionally glancing at the parking lot of a motorcycle. Neutranya catches the figure she is waiting for, Keyan keeps his phone in his jacket pocket. Waiting for the arrival of that man.

"Jasmine" Keyan steps over to Valonia who is walking with Varen. A smile appeared on his lips.

Valonia responded with a faint smile. He didn't ask why Keyan was there?

" Val, you go to class first. I'll see Sonny first." Varen leaves Valonia and Keyan. This man has an appointment with his former rival

Valonia and Keyan continue their steps towards class. Behind them, there were two pairs of eyes that were staring dislike.they were Tita and Sindy.

"Keyan why are you so close to that little girl?" Gerrutu Sindy doesn't like it.

"What's so good about that girl ?!" Tita chimed in with a cocky feeling. He's very upset. Lately he has been ignored by Keyan.

Tita and Keyan are one class, they can be friends because their father is a business partner. Frequently meet at family events. Tita has feelings for Keyan.

" Jasmine, thank you for leaving the material yesterday to Alvan, I can understand it well." Keyan opened the conversation first.

" Everyone"

"For Valonia" Alvan came following from behind.  Her smile was beautiful this morning.

"At first, Al."Valonia contracted Alvan's smile. "Did you rain yesterday?"

"No, it's been until the new house rains . A beautiful girl like you's prayer is apparently granted to delay the rain." Again the smile on Alvan's lips did not fade.

Keyan grunted in annoyance, why would he have to agree to attend such a boring family event? He looked at Alvan who was still staring softly at Valonia.

" Jasmine, is there time tomorrow ? I want to take you for a morning run. In the city park." Keyan stared fixedly at the iris of Valonia's eyes. It felt so sorry for missing a day not being with this girl.

Valonia seemed to think, she remembered what she had to do tomorrow. "Morning can still be, but if it's noon I go to the boutique"

"Tomorrow morning I'll pick you up." Keyan smiled happily. " Come to class." Bring again.

"I wasn't invited." Alvan looked at Keyan and Valonia alternately.

"No." Firmly Keyan then pulled Valonia's wrists.The three men waltzed away towards their respective classes.

...----------------...

All students follow the lesson in an orderly manner, they are really preparing for the final exam later. And so is Keyan. From the back of his chair was someone staring at his back lovingly.

" Key." Tita's voice was half whispered. His hand touched Keyan's shoulder. His seat was behind the man.

Keyan looked back, then said "What's up, Ta ?" Ask and then face forward.

Tita smiles. "Tomorrow there's a show ?" tanyanya slow.

"Yes, I have an appointment. Why ?" So far Keyan still considers Tita his friend. They live in the same neighborhood.

"I want to take you for a morning run in the city park. You want?" Tita stared expectantly.

"I can't, another time."

Tita clenched her hands irritated, why is Keyan like this ? This man never refused unless something was very important. And today, Keyan turned him down just because of his promise to Valonia Jasmine. Tita listened to Keyan and Valonia's conversation this morning.

Spending a few hours of lessons, the bell came home. All students are ready to go home. Keyan rushes out of the classroom regardless of Tita calling out to him. Alvan followed Keyan's steps, smiling mockingly at the annoyed Tita.

" Key wait !" Call Alvan run small. " Why rush ?"

"I'm going to the shoe store." Keyan steps towards the parking lot. His eyes were fixed on Valonia who was preparing to go home on the bike with Varen. "Jasmine" calls him to step into the motor park to meet Valonia.

"What's up, Key?"Valonia lowered her legs back down. He was standing next to the Varen.

"Follow me yes."Pinta Keyan smiled. Hearing the request, Valonia glanced at Varen as if to tell her permission. "Ren, I want to take Jasmine to the shoe store, I'll take her home."  Keyan understood Valonia's eyes.

Varen thought for a moment, then said."Take him home before afternoon. Papa Danu will be worried."

"Yes, I promise I'll deliver it before afternoon. We just bought shoes." Keyan took the helmet off Valonia's head.

"Then, who am I going home with ?" Alvan pointed to himself with a pitiful look.

"Let's go up, before you drive home. We'll stop by the cafe first." Varen was suddenly kind.

Alvan nodded happily, even though his family was rich. Alvan prefers to hitch a ride on Keyan when leaving school. Without speaking again, Varen and Alvan leave the school parking lot. Meanwhile, Keyan invites Valonia to step into his car.

From far away Rara gave her thumb. Today this girl is using the car to school, because the motorbike must be serviced. Without them knowing in the corner of the parking lot, Tita stared hatefully at Valonia Jasmine.

...----------------...

Twenty minutes into the journey still silence interjected in Keyan's car. No talk of the two. Valonia was really nervous with Keyan in the car.

"We go to the shoe store first." Keyan broke the silence. He was actually nervous too.

"Yes." Yeah."

Not wanting to be awkward, Keyan turned on the song. Unexpectedly it was Valonia's favorite song. The atmosphere began to melt, they discussed the singer of the song. As if their pleasure was the same.  The conversation is no longer stuck. Keyan's car stopped at one of the shopping malls.

" Let's get down." Keyan smiled at Valonia. He shut off the engine after it was perfectly parked.

The girl nodded then opened the car door. They walked together towards the entrance of the shop. The shop staff greeted them kindly.

Without a rejection Valonia follows Keyan's steps. Setiba on Valonia's shoe rack removed his hand from Keyan's grasp.

"No need for new shoes, Key. My shoes are at home. You're the one who bought it." Valonia refused subtly. It's not good to be bought shoes by Keyan. This girl was not used to receiving things from others.

"It's okay, Jasmine, just pick the shoes. I bought it. Choose shoes with matching colors." again Keyan still force his desire.

Valonia stood facing Keyan, her gaze looking solemn. Then He said. "Thank you in advance, Key. For your good intentions. But sorry I can't take it. If you want to buy shoes, buy them for you."

Keyan was silent, lowering his head for a moment. Then he smiled softly. "All right, I'm not forcing you. But if I give you something do you accept it?" Iris eyes were hoping to get an answer. Yes !

Valonia Jasmine nodded. " I'll accept it if it doesn't hurt you."

Keyan smiles. " Alright ! I want to see these shoes first, I want to buy shoes. Pick out the color for me." He pulled Valonia's hand towards the men's shoe rack.

While choosing shoes, Keyan and Valonia chatted, discussing shoe sizes and favorite colors.

" This white color is beautiful, fits your skin, the model is also good." Valonia dropped the choice on the shoe in Keyan's hand.

Keyan saw the shoes in his hand, Valonia's choice was very good. "Do you like this one?" he made sure again.

Valonia nodded. " Yes, but if you don't like it. Can change others as you please." He is suddenly uncomfortable because he has been presumptuous to drop the choice for Keyan.

"I'll make your choice, now sit there. You must be tired, I'll go to the cashier first." Keyan pointed at the waiting chair near the entrance

Valoni said, because he was tired. Not only tired Valonia is hungry. He glanced at the clock on his wrist, already forty-five minutes they were there. Valonia looked at the contents of the shop. He hopes someday his boutique will be crowded visitors, not only from the middle but also glimpsed by influential people. To achieve such an achievement. Valonia has to work hard. He wants his work to be recognized.

"Already, let's go to the sportswear store first yes, I want to buy sports clothes. " Keyan came carrying a large size paper bag. Valonia flinched from her daydream. "You daydreaming ?" Keyan realized that the girl with him was surprised to hear his voice.

"I'm sorry I didn't realize you were here, your preparations were like you were going to run, but you just ran." Valonia offset Keyan's move. They walked out of the shop together.

Keyan just smiled, they entered the store that sold sportswear supplies. Keyan no longer asked Valonia to take the clothes, as he was sure the girl would have rejected him.

Keyan chose black sports clothes, this time he chose himself according to his choice. After getting what he wants, Keyan takes Valonia to an accessories store.

"We, to the accessories store first yes. I have something to buy." Keyan took Valonia to the shop he meant. This man did not know if the girl he was carrying looked tired.

"What do you want to buy ?" Valonia followed Keyan's steps. Although tired, he did not complain.

"Suddenly I want to buy something. For this you must not refuse." Keyan stepped closer where various kinds of bracelets were on display.

"Would you like to buy a bracelet ?" Valonia Jasmine looked at the bracelets.

Rope bracelet, very beautiful and unique. With all kinds of shapes and looks. Keyan and Valonia both saw and voted. Their choice fell on the same bracelet. The bracelet was a pair of black. Not big but sweet and unique, simple but meaningful.

Keyan and Valonia looked at each other and smiled. I was amazed at their same choice. Long enough to check the strength of the bracelet.

"Do you like this?" Keyan took a rather small bracelet. It seems like it's for women.

"Yes, the color is good. Simple and beautiful." Valonia still sees the bracelet.

"Then we'll just take this." Keyan headed for the cashier carrying a bracelet in his hand.

"Wait, Key !" Valonia stops Keyan's footsteps. "If you want that bracelet, I can find another one." He realized that Keyan wanted the bracelet, too.

Keyan smiles. "I really want this bracelet. But I'll wear it with you." He spoke softly feeling. Valonia fell silent, she let Keyan pay for the bracelet.

"There's something else you want to buy." I want Valonia to say. I'm tired already ! But those words he kept in his heart.

I feel like nothing else has been bought. Keyan just felt hungry and thirsty.  "It looks like nothing else, Jasmine, we're eating first huh. Just got home." He brought two paper bags himself.

"Yes, I'm hungry too." Valonia entered the cafe which was not too crowded.

"I'm sorry, if you're hungry you should have told me earlier." Keyan felt guilty.  Valonia Jasmine just smiled. They order food according to taste. Keyan looked at Valonia with a guilty look. Before shopping, they should eat first. "I'm sorry, we should have eaten earlier. Just shopping."Keyan apologized for his carelessness.

"No problem, it's a sign that you've never taken a girl for a walk" Valonia smiled mockingly.

Keyan smiled stiffly and said "Yes, you are the first one I took for a walk other than Mommy and Tita. Usually when I walk with Mother, she invites me to eat. If the same way Tita we never stop by to eat, after accompanying shopping. I never took a girl for a walk. Mother and Tita always take me." He told a little story.

Hearing Tita's name mentioned, Valonia Jasmine's countenance changed. He was reminded of Varen, a man as good as his cousin.  Why is it worthless in the eyes of a Tita ?

" Do you have food allergies?" Valonia folded her hands on the table.

"There, I'm allergic to seafood, why ask that ?" Keyan put his phone on the table. He also wondered why Valonia Jasmine did not hold a mobile phone like herself?

"Varen always asks like that, if you invite someone to eat for the first time. So I imitate her, who knows that someday we'll have a meal together and not know if anyone has allergies that's dangerous." Obviously Valonia Jasmine is long.

"Sorry, I'm insensitive, it looks like Varen knows all about you." Keyan suddenly felt insecure.

Valonia smiled, despite coming from a modest family. But he's not lacking attention. Varen watched her and treated her like a princess. Not only Varen, Levin also devoted his attention. If Valonia comes to the cafe, then Levin will intervene to serve her.

"Varen is an amazing man in my opinion at his current age. He made a rule that if you are eating together, you should not touch your phone unless there is a phone or incoming message. Because when we eat is a precious time for us to gather with our loved ones." Obviously Valonia is long

"I understand." Keyan smiled and turned to waiters who delivered the food. "Jasmine !" He took out the bracelet he had bought. "Don't take this bracelet off, so you always remember who put it up for you." Keyan put a bracelet on Valonia's wrist. "Beautiful ! It fits on your skin." The compliment.

Valonia raised her wrist. He smiled seeing the bracelet look sweet on his wrist. Not much to say he also put the other bracelet on Keyan's arm.

"See the bracelet fits perfectly in your hands. It's so sweet !" Praise Valonia

Keyan was happy, he was still staring at the rope bracelet in his hand. "I'm not gonna take this bracelet off." He twirled the bracelet with a smile. He grabbed his phone and took a picture of both of their wrists.
