Noah stared at Ilena's departure, which he had to let go again. What happened to Noah? Why is it that he is only centered on one girl?
Many girls want to be with him. Even after now he became a lecturer, his prestige became more and more up. The black world he left behind slowly.
Noah wants to be better. Noah wanted to be gray which was then polished to white. Just like Ilena's expectations when they were little.
Noah looked up at the sky tonight. He's not alone tonight. There were hundreds if not thousands of stars accompanying him tonight.
But in fact, only one that he really wants from the many expanses of stars in the sky.
It's Ilena. The star in his life he had hurt. A star that will shine a light on his life but can't remember who he is.
Noah started to walk away from the hill. The night was getting late and the wedding party was over. The guests started to say goodbye. He circulated the view looking for the stye in his heart. But he did not find. Maybe the star is tired and resting. That's how Noah thought.

*Flashback*
With his wheelchair every day Noah visited Ilena who had just returned from her coma. Ilena's condition is better. There was nothing left of his memory.
Noah just looked at him from a distance. He was afraid that he would get another rejection from Ilena. The girl did not remember him at all.
Andrew went to Noah and talked to the man. Andrew asks Noah to be patient if he wants to get close to Ilena.
Andrew had heard that Ilena wanted to continue her education. He wants to be able to go to college like his other friends even though he is no longer young.
Somehow Noah thought of an unusual way to get close to Ilena. Noah enrolls in one of the universities to attend the master program. Noah is not desperate even though his physical condition is still not recovered as usual.
In the days that followed, Noah took a physiotherapy class scheduled by Grey, the assistant. He followed all the doctors' advice very well. He should recover as before. He wanted to meet Ilena with a fit physique.
One month has gone. The results of physiotherapy began to show progress although not too significant. Noah was satisfied with the spirit within him.
Sometimes he thinks that Ilena wants to forget her bitter past. That is why God may have heard his wish. That's what Noah thought.
Noah struggled to get back on his feet, and he finally succeeded after three months of trying and not giving up.
Noah also took his classes with passion. He has a pretty smart brain. He quickly learned and impressed the teachers. His fighting spirit was indeed based on wanting to be with Ilena. Ilena is the star of her life.
And that day, he was asked to teach in Ilena's literature class in place of the lecturer who moved assignments. Maybe this is the destiny that God has laid out for her and Ilena. He hoped that this was his destiny.

A few days later,
Ilena went to college as usual. He was very excited to be able to go to college. He wanted this a long time ago. And this is his dream.
Ilena walks down the campus park to her class. Some people talk about him. There seems to be some gossip going around.
"What's this about? Why do people look at me with that look?" inner Ilena.
Ilena quickened her footsteps. He arrives at his class and again gets a nasty look from his friends. Ilena greeted Myra and Mona.
"Hi, Myra, Mona!" greet Ilena friendly.
The two friends of Ilena did not answer Ilena's greeting and instead looked at her sharply.
"How many secrets are you hiding, huh?!" ask Myra.
"Consecrated? What secret?" asked Ilena confused.
"Easy! Don't be so innocent and innocent. The rumors are out. Turns out you're not who we thought you were, Lena. Your sweet face holds a lot of poison!" continued Myra.
"Huh?! What are you guys talking about?" Ilena asked for a definite answer from her ignorance.
"That's..." Ilena closed her mouth. "I can explain everything! It's not like you see!" obviously Ilena.
"Easy! What do you want to explain? Everything is clear! You said you weren't interested in the new lecturer. But in fact you're both getting older with him and dancing with Sir Noah!" murmur Mona.
Ilena sighed. It is free to explain to those who are filled with the fire of jealousy.
"Sir Noah is my brother's friend. She came to my sister's wedding because of an invitation from my sister." explained Ilena.
"Then what about the dance? Are you flirting with Sir Noah to dance with you?" myra Cecar.
"Huh?! Tease her? Where's there! It was just unintentional. I just wanted to make it more polite. Whether you believe it or not!" ilena.
Myra and Mona were silent. But it felt like everyone still did not believe in Ilena.
"No need to explain anything to them!"
Suddenly Noah came and approached Ilena. He heard rumors that were now circulating on campus. And he knew for sure Ilena would be scabbed by her friends.
"The one who asked Ilena to dance was me. So, don't accuse Ilena who isn't anymore! Sit down in each of you're places. And remember! No one talks about personal issues in class. Understood?" noah resolute.
Noah knew that yesterday's problems wouldn't just be solved. Not to mention he had to face the campus board who would ask about this.
As much as possible Noah was professional in front of his students. Noah looked at the sad looking Ilena. Again and again he made Ilena hurt.
"What should I do, Lord? Why would I just hurt her?" inner Noah growled.
Noah's teaching class was over, he dropped out of the class and met several members of the campus board who wanted to clarify the news that was circulating. Being a teacher is no joke.
Noah's life before this was very different from the one now. He used to love it in the spotlight, but now once in the spotlight, there are things he must bet.
Noah sat down in front of a few people who were about to ask him a few questions. He sat quietly because in his previous life he was used to dealing with more severe problems.
Noah answered well every question asked by the university officials. This is how the rules are. If there are rumors circulating especially about lecturers and students, then the lecturer must be at the hearing and can be given strict sanctions.
Luckily this time Noah did not get sanctions because he did not make a mistake. She openly admits that she likes Ilena and even loves her.
The love story of students and teachers is not foreign. But the university board hopes that Noah will not make a fuss again or make rumors that could make the image of the university worse.
Noah walked out of the courtroom and was cheered by applause from the students who were his fans.
"Thank you for all your support. I really appreciate what you guys are doing. But, there's something I have to admit in front of all of you."
The students looked at Noah in disbelief. No exception Myra and Mona are also Ilena who is standing a bit away from the crowd. Ilena deliberately moved away because she did not want the atmosphere to increase runyam.
"What is reported in the media is true. Me and Ilena..."
Everyone started whispering. Even Ilena rounded her eyes in disbelief.
"What is he doing?" muttered Ilena started to fret.
"I like Ilena. Nah! I loved her. So, never hate or make fun of Ilena because I was the first one to like her!" noah resolute.
Everyone was flabbergasted with their mouths open. Noah walked through the sea of people swarming together. He is moving towards the center of his life right now. He is the star of Noah's life. It's Ilena.
Noah stood facing Ilena.
"I'm serious about what I said. So, from now on you don't have to worry."
Ilena was silent. He really doesn't know what to comment. Everyone looked at him. He did not dare to look at Noah.
"Come on! We better get out of here!" Noah grabs Ilena's hand and takes her away from the crowd.
