Aldo this morning saw Mira in front of the house, he then came to Mira because he wanted to say hello. "I want to meet Raka, is she home?" tanyakanya.

"Raka has left for school" replied Mira while arranging her flower pot.

Aldo then said goodbye, he also had to go to the office immediately as well.

Mira stared at Aldo's departure, rarely did he greet Aldo. After Aldo was not seen Mira entered the house.

Susi who found out that Aldo from Mira's place, she immediately rushed to Mira's house.

"Mira, why is Aldo here? he still likes you" said Susi.

"What are you talking about, Susi! Aldo was here nyariin Raka," explained Mira while cleaning her house.

"Sound! He knew that Raka was in school, why look for him" Susi said.

Mira then invites Susi to go to her father's house, she has not gone there for a long time. After arriving at his father's house, which Mira was headed to his father's room, he cleaned a room that had not been occupied for a long time.

"Mira, why is this house not sold," said Susi who was helping Mira clean the room.

"This house will not be sold to Lian, this house is full of memories while he was with Dad," explained Mira.

Usually someone cleans this house, but not for his father's room. Though in the room there was nothing, there were only photographs of memories belonging to Mira and Lian.

Today children are prohibited from going home first, because the guidance teacher will explain about the camping activities they will carry out.

They start from group division, in one group there are five people. Alya, Melisa, Dania, Hilda and Vila were in a group, and they were trained to set up tents.

"How's this rope?" alya asked who could not set up the tent.

Instructors then teach Alya, time in the forest later they should be able to establish themselves. Lucky Alya's friends are very compact, so they can quickly.

After all the students could set up tents, they were all allowed to go home. Because it's almost afternoon too.

"They are spoiled, the time to fold the tent asked for Raka's help," said Alya when he saw Raka was guiding other students.

"His name is also a guide, must help students dong," said Melisa

"Truely said Alya, we had no one to help" said Dania.

Alya resentfully came to Raka, she was about to invite Raka to come home. Melisa and Dania also come to where Raka is, they both walk behind Alya.

"Raka, let's go home! it's late afternoon" said Alya.

"What don't you see? I'm still helping them" Raka said.

Alya finally went home first, he could not wait for Raka to finish guiding. Alya waited for public transport to pass by, but there was none. At this time Alya was still standing in front of the school, but earlier Dania and Melisa had invited him home together.

Raka who was about to go home stopped his bike in front of Alya, Alya immediately went up to Raka's motorbike.

"Who told you to go up? come down" said Raka.

Alya hugged Raka's body tightly, so as not to be told to go down. Raka has not yet put on her bike, so Alya takes off her embrace.

Because Alya did not take off his embrace, Raka finally put on his bike. Alya asks Raka to slow down, she is afraid of falling.

The rain fell very heavily along with the strong wind, making Raka pull her bike on the side of the road. They both take shelter at the stop, there happens to be a bus stop on the side of the road. ?

"Wear this!" said Raka gave her jacket to Alya while looking away.

"You know I'm cold" said Alya, accepting the jacket.

"I lent you a jacket not because you were cold, but just look at your wet clothes" Raka said, turning her back to Alya.

Alya just realized it was his underwear until it was seen from the outside, he quickly immediately put on Raka's jacket. Alya was very ashamed of Raka, fortunately no one was looking because it just so happened that the streets were very quiet.

The rain is getting heavier, the wind is also getting stronger making Alya more afraid. "Raka, I'm afraid." he said softly.

Raka then invited Alya to sit next to him, he hugged her because he could not bear to see Alya who was cold and scared.

A few moments later the rain had started to subside, people had started to pass by. Raka was still waiting for the rain to completely stop, people who were about to take the bus started arriving at the stop.

"Raka, let's go home! I'm ashamed to be seen by people" Alya said softly.

"Wait for the rain to stop first" said Raka briefly.

"Jeng look! children today, still in school have embraced in public places again" said one who was waiting for the bus.

"You can't be with your parents" said the theme.

Hearing someone talking like that, Raka let go of her embrace and then took Alya home. Arriving at the house Alya directly entered the house, leaving Raka who was still outside.

"Raka, go in yuk! thank you for delivering Alya," said Susi who happened to be on the porch of the house.

Raka refuses Susi's invitation because her clothes are wet, she then says goodbye to go home.

"Darling, are you rained? why not wear a raincoat," said Mira when she saw Raka was soaking wet.

"Forgotten, Mah. It was also sheltered but still wet," explained Raka.

"But Mama prepared warm water for a bath" said Mira.

After preparing warm water for Raka, Mira told Raka to take a bath and make a warm drink.

Raka is very happy to have a caring mother like Mira, rarely scolding her and always preparing for the needs of her child and husband.

"Well, thank you for preparing everything" said Raka.

Mira smiled at Raka, then rubbed her child's head.

Susi's House.

Alya was currently resting her body on the bed, she recalled the incident at the stop earlier. Raka who turned out to be very attentive made Alya amazed, only this time Raka was sweet with her. He imagined while smiling. "Raka turned out to be very kind, he cares about me" he said in his heart.

Susi surprised Alya who was smiling herself, she was about to invite her son to dinner.

"Alya wants to sleep, Mah," Alya refused. It's also bad, "Next.

"It's sleepy to smile" Susi said and walked out of her son's room.

The next day Mira wakes up from her sleep, she prepares breakfast for her husband and son.

"Where's raka? it's usually ready" said Lian, who didn't see her son at the dinner table.

Mira just remembered that usually Raka was awake and ready for breakfast, but this morning the trunk of her nose was not visible at all. Lian then took Mira to her son's room, apparently Raka was still sleeping. Mira wakes Raka up slowly, when touching her son's hand feels hot.
