"Vania, are you okay?"

A hand still holding onto Vania's arm. The girl still looked down with mixed feelings. A few seconds ago he was almost doomed if not immediately helped by people who turned out to know him.

With a still irregular heartbeat, Vania raised her face.

"Bang Edo...?" lirih Vania's.

"What are you doing? Why daydream when you're on a highway like this? Where are you actually going? Why not just call ojol from your office lobby and cross the street instead?" The questions from Edo made Vania aware.

Actually, Vania was very happy when she came out of her study. He has chosen a house that he will rent for his life later.

But when passing through the office lobby, Vania saw the togetherness of Damian and Sitta who walked hand in hand with Sitta who never separated from Damian's arm. Vania has convinced herself that she will be fine.

But when remembering their togetherness this afternoon .. it feels crowded if you have to see Damian together with others. Vania tried to strengthen her heart. All this time he had never even been close to any man. Only a Damian could possibly break his heart! Veria's strict on her.

Vania walks towards the rented house but her mind is turned back on Damian. Highlight Damian's eyes while looking at him as if to signal if the man considers Vania special. Or is it just Vania's feelings?

The horn of a truck heading towards him makes him realize that he is now in danger. And lucky Edo who was passing on the road immediately helped Vania.

"Vania!" edo's call made Vania aware of her daydream.

"Huh?! Why, Bang?" ask Vania confused.

"Where are you going?"

"I .. I want to see the rented house in the alley there, Bang," said Vania while pointing to a small alley that can only be passed by a motorcycle.

"Oh, so. Then I'll take ya!" bargain Edo.

Vania nodded without answering. They walked into the alley and disappeared behind the wall.

Meanwhile from a distance, a man also hurriedly got out of his car when he saw Vania in danger earlier. Who else if not Damian.

But Sitta's voice calls awaken Damian. The girl began to grow angry with Damian's attitude.

"How could Damian care so much about that geeky girl? Just watch out! I won't let this go much longer!" sitta Inner.

Sitta immediately pulled Damian's arm back into the car. Damian just shut up and resigned.

...***...

Vania looked around at the rented house she thought was very worthy of her stay. The place is not too large and also seems comfortable. Being among the residents' houses so he can all blend in with the surrounding residents.

Vania paid the rent. He'll start moving his stuff on holidays.

"So, what's the reason why you moved?" edo asked as he walked back towards the large highway.

"Emh, there's no one. But I just don't want to trouble Naina's sister continue. I don't feel good if I keep hitchhiking at her house" replied Vania.

Edo nodded in understanding. Vania begins to realize that there is something different about Edo's appearance.

"Bang Edo why wear a suit? Where are you going?" ask Vania.

"Well?!" Edo surprised. He only realized that he was still wearing his office suit and not the attributes of an older brother ojol.

"It's..."

"You want a condo, Bang?" ask Vania plain.

"Ah, not really." Edo scratched his nape.

Then they arrived in front of a black luxury car. Yeah, Vania started to remember that Edo got out of that black car.

"Whose car is this, Bang?" ask Vania again.

"Emh .. This ... this is your employer's car! Ahaha!" edo answered with his laughter.

"Good right?" continued.

Vania frowned confusedly.

"I became a rich man's private driver from morning to evening. Then I ngojek night. That's it, Van," Edo lied.

"Well! Oh yeah? Cool, Bang!" Vania gave her thumbs up.

"Cool what? Just be a doang driver!" Edo scratched his head. He was really bad at Vania for lying so much.

"Whatever our work, if done with the heart, will surely be a blessing, Bang. I'd better go back to my brother's employer. Who knows, he needs a brother. I'll just call ojek from here!" said Vania while reaching for her phone.

For a moment Edo was dumbfounded by Vania's words. This girl is an amazing girl, he said.

"Eh, no!" Edo awakens from his daydream and immediately seizes Vania's phone.

"Ish, Brother! Why do you like to snatch my phone?" pouting Vania.

"I'll take you home. Okay?!"

"With this nice car?" Vania gawking.

"Yes! Time to take a taxi? Come aboard!" Edo opens the car door for Vania.

With doubt Vania entered the luxury car. This was the first time he could sit in the soft seat of a luxury car.

"How long have you been a rich man's driver?" ask Vania when the car starts to go.

Edo cleared his throat to neutralize his nervousness. How many more lies did he have to tell this innocent girl? Edo could not bear to lie to Vania.

"Emh, it's been a while anyway," replied Edo originally.

Edo clutched tightly onto his steering wheel. "Yes because of necessity. I have a family I need to fund. I'd do anything for them."

Vania smiled at Edo's words. For a moment he remembered about his brother who was still in prison. He hadn't seen his brother in a long time. Maybe after he moved to a new rented house, he would visit his brother.

"We have dinner first, how about it?" edo's bargain made Vania aware of her daydream.

"Eh? Yes, I can, Bang."

Edo was looking for a comfortable place to eat for them.

"I'll buy it, Bang! Eat pecel catfish how, Bang?"

"Emh, maybe too. But, why do you want to treat me? Don't you love your money? You just paid the rent, and now you want to buy me."

Vania throbbing. "Just eat pecel catfish, Bang. It will not bankrupt. Count this as a thank you to my brother for helping me. And now you're taking me in this fancy car."

"Alright, alright. How can I refuse, huh!" Edo scrambled Vania's hair slowly.

Edo parked his car in front of a tent stall that had the horns of a catfish pecel. Vania ordered two servings of food for him and Edo.

They sat on a bench and faced each other.

"Are you in trouble?" ask Edo.

"Huh?! What problems? There is no!" vania answered by turning her face away. He doesn't want to keep thinking about Damian. He wanted to forget all the things related to his boss.

"Vania! Why daydream?"

"Huh?! No, no, Bang. The food has come! Let's eat!" said Vania with enthusiasm and then devoured the pecel catfish in front of her.

As Edo and Vania were enjoying their dinner, a pair of eyes from inside the car stared at them. Whether this is fate or not, but again Damian was reunited with Vania despite a strange situation.

Damian pulled the car over. He grabbed his phone and called someone.

"Hello!" answer someone from across there.

"Doctor, what's wrong with me?"

"What are you really doing?"

"I felt something strange with my heart. It's like it's beating faster if I see it."

"Huh?! Explain it in detail!"

Damian explained in detail his condition lately. It all began when she was heartbroken with Sheila and met with Vania.

"That means you're in love! Did you just not know?"

"Fell in love? That's right!"

"Then you have to make sure!"

"Is that so?"

"Yes!"

"alright. Thank you, Doctor!"

Call ended.

...***...

Damian followed where Edo's car was going. Damian is like a stalker now. He must make sure something so that he is sure what steps he will do next.

Damian sees Vania coming down in front of a house. Then the girl waved her hand as Edo's car started to move away.

"Vania!"

Vania, who is about to enter the house, is surprised by Damian's arrival.

"Mister Damian?" Vania could not believe that the person who had been interfering with her thoughts was suddenly present before her.

"W-what are you doing here?" ask Vania nervously.

Damian spread his shoulders. "Eitherway. I also don't know what I'm doing. I just follow my heart."

Vania felt Damian's attitude was a little strange. He does not want to make things worse.

"I'll go inside, sir. Excuse me!"

"Wait!"

Vania turned back and faced Damian.

"I have to make sure of one thing."

Vania frowned confusedly. "Sure what, sir?"

"Sorry, Vania!" Damian pulls Vania's body closer. I don't know what madness Damian is doing.

"Tu-Master?!" pekik Vania was shocked.

"Sorry..." One word was said from Damian's lips before the man finally re-adopted the sweetness of Vania's lips.
