It's been almost a week that Regan hasn't seen Renatta. Not even for chatan anymore. Oma Lina was really watching him very closely. In the office there was Ozy who was watching him, at home even more, there was Oma, Mommy as well as his Daddy. It felt like he was being separated intentionally.
Even when he was in the room, he was like a cage that could not go out anywhere. He said he wanted to go see his college friends first. But her Mommy forbids it for fear of Regan lying. Though Regan has said, if Renatta is not included in his college friends, because Renatta only school until High School.
Be that as it may, Regan in her room just sat up hugging her roll with a face that snatched away. To fill his void, he watches videos on YouTube using his laptop. Even if he intended, he could have contacted Renatta through his social media. But, when there is a gap, Regan instead frowned again, because Renatta last went online 2 weeks ago.
"Everybody sucks!"
Want to sleep too, will not be sound. Already this week, Regan slept in the middle of the night, and woke up early in the morning. He deliberately busied himself so as not to think of Renatta, so that his sense of longing could be held back.
"What is he doing now? Does he feel the same way as me? Does he miss me too?"

And as it turned out, Renatta felt the same way. Even Renatta continued to look at the window, hoping Regan would come and go through there.
There was nothing Renatta did, he just sat still and kept thinking. Even for mutual communication about marriage, must be with her brother if you want to chat with Mommy Jessie.
"There's a week left, but it still feels like a long time. Like it's been months. Does Regan feel the same way about me?"
Both think similar things. You can only wonder without certainty.

Morning began to greet with the light that entered through the ventilation gaps in Regan's room. He just remembered that today is a holiday, he should be able to enjoy his day off with pleasure. It's not even, he feels imprisoned at home.
Until then, her Mommy knocked on her bedroom door. Regan lets Mommy Jessie in.
"What's up, Mom?" ask Regan.
"You're Mommy's chair hasn't woken up yet. It's under Ozy. He said he wanted to take you out."
"Tumben really," said Regan who was astonished.
"Udah sanah bath, keep coming down, all of us breakfast together."
Regan also according to him, anyways his holiday is still no plan. Who knows, today Ozy is in a caliphate and even met with Renatta.
Regan went straight from her bed to the bathroom. Started to do the ritual. She flushed her body with a warm shower. Enjoying every warm water that falls on his body. After he finished, he immediately put on his clothes and walked out of his room.
"For so long, I waited for you to take a bath," Ozy's scornful babble waited for Regan.
"Much talk!" reply Regan with a ketus then sit in front of the dining table.
After breakfast, Regan walks with Ozy and asks where they are going.
"Udah do not ask a lot, just follow and obey. Instead of you getting bored at home, just mending nurut aja."
Regan snorted bitterly because of Ozy's reply. He got into Ozy's car and sat down next to her. Ozy drove his car out of the yard.
On the way, Regan keeps guessing where they're going in her head. Even he had not realized even guessed it with a small mutter.
"If I go to Renatta's house, I'll make sure Ozy's salary will be raised again."
Apparently, the murmur was heard so clearly in Regan's ears.
"Basic is not very insensitive!"
"What do I care about?"
Ozy's reply received a sharp glint from Regan's eyes. As a result, Ozy became silent and focused on driving.
Ozy's car stopped at a supermarket. Regan looked at Ozy asking for an explanation.
"The place we go to is the supermarket, you have to help me with monthly shopping, from vegetables, fruits, baby milk, to other baby supplies. I don't want to bother looking for it myself. So you have to help me, I already have a list of the groceries. So, let's just find the right one."
Regan gawked in disbelief. Just this time Ozy was so glaring at him. Just as he would choose to stay in the car and wait, Ozy got out of the car and opened the door and pulled Regan out.
"This once, I'm asking you for help. You haven't given me any gifts for my baby's birth either, so all the groceries today, you're paying."
"WHAT!!!"
Regan gawked again. He has just resigned. Especially when Ozy issued a list of shopping that is almost 30 cm.
"Crazy! So much! All this time you've never supported your wife?" ask the astonished Regan.
"Abroad! The needs of the baby are many, the needs of nursing mothers are also many. We must provide good nutrition for pregnant women and their babies. So, can't eat carelessly. You will feel it too."
Ozy pulls Regan's hand to get into the supermarket. He pushed the trolley to make it easier to bring groceries later. They start choosing items from the food section, then baby equipment, and other needs.
When in the place of baby clothes equipment, Regan is confused to choose which size. Plus a lot of color choices.
"Zy, Zy," call the confused Regan. But Ozy wasn't around. I don't know where his best friend went.
Regan continued to wander around there, looking around while looking for Ozy. Unexpectedly and planned in advance, it turns out Renatta was there too was choosing a definite baby diaper for his beloved niece.
A smile began to rise from his lips. It turns out coming with Ozy doesn't hurt either. His already inflamed longing could be delivered even if only for a short while. Who initially wants to find Ozy, Regan instead follows Renatta from behind.
Until finally, Renatta realized that someone was following him. He deliberately stopped to look back. And when he found out who was following him, Renatta just fell silent, while Regan even grinned.
At that moment, Ozy appears and immediately pulls Regan away.
"Nat, we go first. Bye."
Ozy even said goodbye to Renatta. As long as he walked, Regan always looked at him sharply.
"Why the hell is everything? I wasn't satisfied with meeting Renatta. I haven't even had a chance to say hello! So annoying!"
"Remember! You are, still in the dingit. You should never have met. But since today is unplanned, it's okay."
"That's okay. Come back, I want to talk to Natta!" kekeh Regan who got a light blow on his hand from Ozy.
"Can't! Come on to the cashier! I'm done shopping."
With a sour face, Regan complies. He paid for all Ozy's groceries. After that they both came out of the supermarket and left from there.
