Lana woke up from her sleep. With his eyes still closed, his hands tried to find and reach for the phone on the edge of his mattress.


Good morning lanaku. Fill in Dinda's message.


Morning is also my Dinda. Reply to Lana's message.


Then Lana stepped into the bathroom, After her goodbye to the mother who was cool watching TV with her beloved cat that Lana had bought to accompany her mother.


Now Lana forbids mother not to work anymore because of the age that is getting older. 


On a motorcycle Lana down the streets of the city while remembering when the High School picked up Dinda at her house.


" The cave longs for that time but life is a journey that can not be repeated again." whispered inner Lana.


Not long after, Lana arrived at Dinda's house. This time Lana came in and sat in the living room, waiting for Dinda to come out of her room.When her Mother Dinda approached Lana and sat nearby.


" Eh lana, where are you going to take Dinda? " said Mother Dinda.


" Dinda Kangen wants to see the waterfall tee "lana replied with a smile.


" You're in Dinda don't na kangein ? " said Bunda Dinda with a soft tone.


" Kangen lana also dong ma" replied Dinda as she walked towards me.


No lingering Lana and Dinda say goodbye to Mother Dinda. Then Lana and Dinda flocked to Lia's house as a meeting point. The arrival of Lana and Dinda has been preceded by Apoy Lia telling Apoy if today Lia with Dinda will go to the waterfall.


" uh there's a bang Apoy, what's the news bang" said Dinda.


" Well, how are you?" answer bang Apoy.


"As long as there is good news lana kok bang hahah" said Dinda while laughing.


Not wanting to linger, they drove their motorbikes towards the waterfall. On the motorcycle Dinda's eye view saw several sides of the road that had changed. 


" It has changed, not rich first" said Lana.


" Yes na, but will not change the memories in it kok. " replied Dinda.


Dinda smiled, with a hand that hugged Lana from behind. Finally they arrived at the bamboo house near the waterfall.


Dinda and Lia were surprised by the conditions around the waterfall that had been crowded with visitors and improved. Bara who knew the arrival of Dinda and Lia immediately approached him. While Apoy I separated himself from taking care of visitors because he knew if this was a High School reunion.


" Well, are you all ready?" bara said.


" Gass hahaha" replied Dinda and Lia.


Lana and Bara immediately invite Dinda and Lia to drive adrenaline to play Rafting. Before that they must wear lifeboats and helmets to maintain safety. Then they went down the river through some rapids that are quite extream, but did not make them afraid.


Long enough they were on a rubber boat, immediately made Lana and Bara do a fad. As Bara and Lana fall into the water, Lana asks Lia and Dinda to help her grab her hand to pull Lana and Bara. But Lana and Bara pulled Dinda and Lia until they all fell into the water.


" Gausah is afraid to use a hahah buoy" said Bara Meledek.


" Lo know that the cave can not swim bar, but this crazy exclaims haha." said Lia.


" But the water is cold hahah" said Dinda.


Rushing I boarded the inflatable boat first then pulled Bara, Dinda, and Lia onto the inflatable boat.

" Na father who has this house where from before does not look "asked Dinda.


" He died a few weeks ago Din" said Lana.


Dinda was surprised when she heard Lana's words, but Dinda was happy. At least the father witnessed their struggle in the economic welfare of the villagers.


" how was it exciting, right? " says Bara.


" mad exclaimed abis hahah" replied Dinda as she ate.


After filling his stomach, Bara invites Dinda and Lia to see the waterfall. Dinda and Lia agreed, still they had to walk but the terrain this time was not as bad as the first time they came here.

" Eh Dinda, Lia kok no news to come here" said Nusa.


" Bang Nusa is not in the same as Bang Apoy? kan Lia had the same story Bang Apoy " replied Dinda explained.


" Whoa, the rich Apoy forgot to mention " said Nusa.


" What's bang again? " ask Dinda.


" Another place to check for new rides din" said Nusa.


Nusa is checking out a place to make a new ride. He plans to make Canyoning . Canyoning is the activity of descending and climbing the waterfall with a rope. Again Dinda and Lia feel challenged to try the new rides, but he had to be patient because Nusa needs time to make the new rides.


Lana and Dinda sit together on a big rock like they used to miss. Then Lana told Dinda, if a few weeks ago there was a company that would buy the work of his writing.


" Dear, maybe one more week I want to climb Mount Raung" said Lana.


" Take it. " said Dinda.


" Hmmm, you go to college" said Lana.


Dinda was silent when she could not climb with Lana.


" How about your novel na." said Dinda.


" gatau, I'm still busy taking care of other things" I replied.


Dinda realized that Lana was very busy especially she had received an offer from the company to actively send the results of her writing .


When it was late afternoon, Lana invited Dinda and Lia to come home soon. Rushing they say goodbye to Nusa and also Bara to go home. Lana, Dinda and Lia return down the path and finally arrive at the bamboo house that Apoy has been sitting in to take Lia home.


On a motorcycle, Lana and Dinda don't talk much. Lana saw Dinda's face from her rearview mirror clearly visible look of Dinda's tired face.


Long enough to get to Dinda's house. Eventually Lana and Dinda arrive at Dinda's house.


" were tired of din?, heheh" said Lana.


" yes, but it's exciting, thank you, lanaku" replied Dinda with a smile.
