Today is the first day Syadira begins her studies. Due to his class schedule at 10 am, Syadira left for campus not escorted by Aji. In accordance with his initial intention that he just wanted to focus on college, come, follow his class, and go home. There is no other determination other than to immediately complete the obligation less than the targeted time, 2 years.
“New first day has a lot of tasks, how about tomorrow,” complained Syadira who has not felt the task of college for a long time.
Because in 1 day there are 3 classes, Syadira was forced to go home before sunset.
Syadira, who was sitting at the front stop of the campus, waited for Aji to come and pick her up.
“Hai, you are the same 1st class I was, yes?” A man of Syadira's age approached him at the stop.
Syadira. They also get acquainted. The man was named Rio.
“So you freelance too?” ask Syadira who began to get along with his new friend.
“Yes, so I am also just like you, continuing college after enough money. Finished D2, I work first, office work ever, work join individual business also ever, now I freelance since taking college,” explained Rio.
Amidst the chat Syadira and Rio, Aji's car came and rang his horn.
“Rio me first yes, you are waiting for ojek or how?” Syadira said goodbye to his college friend.
“Yes, Dir, my left hand is still sick just accident 1 week ago so can not ride the motor alone. Be careful, Dira,” replied Rio let Syadira go.
Syadira enters Aji's car and waves her hand at Rio.
“Who?” tanya Aji scrunched her forehead.
“Friends in class, Rio his name, he again waiting for ojek because abis accident so can not bring his own vehicle,” Syadira replied complete.
Aji looked at her lover with a look of wonder. “Great! Just 1 day already have a male acquaintance, understand again the ins and outs of his story.”
Syadira just laughed at Aji's words. “You eat?”
Aji only replied with a short thud. Syadira who just realized her lover was jealous, rubbed gently on Aji's cheek. “Friendly, Mas.”
Aji also reminded Syadira not to accept any offers from her college friends, except her fellow women. Like offering to take her home, or whatever. If Aji is not able to pick him up, Syadira better use the services of online motorcycle taxi.
Syadira just nodded according to Aji's message.

Finished taking Syadira to campus, Aji immediately headed to his office. As usual, Selena was waiting for him in the office lobby. Aji refused to say hello.
Aji did not heed Selena's words, he continued to concern himself with preparing for his work today. “Selena, I'm busy please don't disturb, you can get out now.”
Selena whines spoiled holding Aji's arm. “Aji, don't get angry, our cooperation keep running ‘kan?”
Aji tried to pull Selena's hand. But Selena hugged Aji. “Ji, later in the afternoon we go to the field ‘kan? I'm 1 car with you yes.”
“Taken off!” snapped Aji.
Selena let go of his embrace and said goodbye. “This morning I wait in the car park ya.” He came out of Aji's room and smiled behind the door. Selena then appears to pull out her phone and send a message to someone. “How, have you got the photo?”
Because Aji had promised to pick up Syadira this afternoon, while he just remembered having to go to the field this afternoon, Aji immediately told Syadira that he could not pick her up. Thankfully, Syadira was having group work done, so she would be home in the afternoon. So, Aji can still pick her up.
A few hours later, Aji who was about to leave for the field, saw Selena was already standing in front of the hood of her car. Aji seemed to ignore the woman. Aji rushes into the car and Selena follows her into Aji's car.
During the trip, Aji was quiet and ignored Selena. Selena was like a madman talking to herself. Until the field, Aji did not want to open his mouth.

As usual, Syadira waits for Aji at the front stop of his campus, and langung gets into the car when Aji has arrived. Aji watched Syadira's flat face. Syadira also did not say a word to Aji.
“Capek?” ask Aji attentively.
“Mas Aji asked me not to be escorted by a male friend, but Mas Aji is always 1 car from each other. Selfish! From the time we are still courting contract Mas Aji is always selfish! Angry that I was escorted home by someone else, but he even went with someone else too!” Syadira began to protest at her lover.
Aji just smiled anxiously at Syadira's angry expression. Aji pinched Syadira's chubby cheek and asked what he meant because he did not understand. Aji suddenly remembered Selena who always asked to be with him.
Aji patiently explained the chronology of why he could be in 1 car with Selena. However, it turns out Syadira not only disputed that. Syadira shows a photo of Selena's delivery while they were together in Aji's room. As Selena was hugging and leaning on Aji's arm.
Aji was really furious at Selena. Aji also explained to her lover that it was all Selena's engineering. But, either because of exhaustion due to the tasks that accumulate, or because they do not accept seeing Aji's affection with Selena, Syadira is reluctant to believe in Aji. Syadira denied Aji's explanation because Aji seemed to enjoy Selena's embrace. Syadira refused to eat with Aji and asked him to be escorted to the boarding house.
Aji resignedly saw his lover who was angry because of jealousy. He deliberately let Syadira relieve his own anger. Clearly, Aji was actually taking decisive action. At that time, he asked one of Aji's trust staff to replace his job working on the cooperation project of Aji's father and Papa Selena. Aji only kept his threat to Selena at that time.
Not only that, Aji also took over some tasks with the deadline coming to an end. The goal, is for this to be the reason that Aji will bring to his father. Sooner or later, his father will ask about this cooperation, because indeed their initial goal is to run the Selena and Aji approach process.
Until the next morning, Syadira still refused to be escorted Aji to campus. However, Aji is not an unyielding man, but a romantic man of Syadira's dreams. Aji deliberately came to the cost of Syadira early by carrying a bouquet of flowers that are so beautiful and fragrant. That's how Aji apologized to his girlfriend.
Aji also reveals her engagement plan to Syadira which will be implemented in this week so that Syadira is absolutely sure that Aji's love is only for her forever. He doesn't care if his father agrees or not. For him, as long as grandfather had already approved of his relationship, everything would be fine. Aji also requested that Elma, Syadira's sister, come as a representative of Syadira's family.
