It had been a week since their meeting at the cafe that time, but Ryan never got a reply from Friska like the girl promised him. Since then, he has never met the girl.

"What's wrong with me? Why do I always think of that little girl?" Ryan who was in his study continued to curse himself who always thought of Friska.

Some of his work was abandoned because he could not focus. His mind kept on recalling Friska's changing attitude that day by day was getting away from him.

"G ...." He throws rough documents at work, then ruffles his own hair. His current feelings were really frustrating.

Suddenly the memories of their early encounter in the mini market again crossed Ryan's head. The cute and brave girl who wears doraemon pajamas with her courage defends the rights of unknown grandmothers, manages to make Ryan smile and admire the courage of the girl even though Ryan has not remembered Friska at the time. Ryan immediately smiled again considering the events of the past few weeks.

Then, it continued as Friska asked for her help to crack her bike with a very adorable welding mode as well as a sense of humor that was arguably quite enough to make Ryan more interested in the girl and hope to get to know her. They get acquainted, until it is revealed that Friska is his sister Andre, making little heart Ryan cheer happily in other words he can meet again with Friska.

Something unexpected happened, Friska contacted him. Don't ask how she feels when she gets a message from Friska. He's very, very happy.

Since then they have exchanged messages. Ryan, who has no younger brother, considers Friska as his own sister. The two always reply to messages, causing a sense of comfort in Ryan's heart when dealing with the girl, even clearly he often devoted his personal problems to Friska.

Nothing has changed, though Friska knows that she will marry the Goddess. Everything is fine, at least that's what Ryan knows. In fact, up to a week after the Naura reception, they were still exchanging messages. The silly words that Friska always sent managed to make Ryan always smile.

Ryan's smile still continues to be flinched when remembering the thing that he thought was beautiful. However, then the smile faded as she recalled everything differently after Friska sent her last message. An apology for not being able to be a good sister and praying for the smooth marriage of Ryan and Dewi sent by Friska, after which the girl disappeared like swallowed by the earth.

"Fris, you said I was your brother, but why didn't you call me once? I miss your messages and your silliness. What's my fault until you walk away from me like this?" Ryan stared at so many of the messages he had sent, but only ticked two without the recipient reading.

"What made that jolly girl turn 180⁰ like this to me?" ask again.

Memories of eating together at the cafe also crossed again. Ryan was so happy, his smile just puffed up when he accidentally met Friska after two weeks of not meeting each other. His heart was beating so fast, his blood was rustling so violently when he saw Friska's cute face with a smile displayed there. Ryan hugged Friska and said he missed the girl in front of him.

However, the desire was gone, the smile disappeared when Friska did not greet him at all, even like never thought it existed. The girl did not glance at him at all, leaving a pain inside there.

The pain grew when Friska blissfully told of a man in front of Ryan. A smile continued to crack on Friska's face as she praised the man she was close to, even though they were intending to be serious. And, it managed to make Ryan's blood churn. There is dislike and anger mixed into one.

Suddenly Ryan recalled Andre's words some time ago that asked him how he felt about Friska.

"Could he like me? So Andre asked me that question at that time? Could that be the reason she stayed away because I was going to marry the Goddess? But, doesn't she always look good and say that Goddess is the best choice for me?" Ryan continues to monologue on his own.

He still did not understand everything that happened, even with his own feelings the man still did not understand. What feeling he now felt, he did not know for sure. For all Ryan knows, he only misses the figure of Friska who he already considered a sister. Missing the figure of a sister who makes him always smile and languish when there is no. However, one thing he did not realize, a younger brother would not make the heart beat and blood rustle violently, unless Ryan himself had feelings for the girl he considered the younger brother to be.

"Have I ...?" Ryan couldn't continue his words. If that's true, then it's all gonna be fucked.

"Ah ... I can g*la!" Ryan vented that endless and unwarranted vexation on his desk. He hit the table very hard, then got up from there leaving a myriad of work still piling up. He needs fresh air.

"I have to prove my guess wrong" he murmured.

Ambar, who was passing through his son's workroom, accidentally heard the sound of Ryan's punch and scream. He immediately opened the door to see Ryan's condition and found him standing at the door.

"What's wrong?" He saw the child who looked very chaotic.

"none. I just need some fresh air" replied Ryan as he passed.

"He why?" Ambar looked at Ryan's back which was getting further away.

With an erratic mind, his steps led Ryan out of the house. Then, drive the car down the road without a destination. Where he's going, he himself doesn't know. Ryan just wanted to go and throw away his gloom, hoping that after this he could return home quietly.

It had been almost an hour, the man was driving a car and just circling the streets. Until, his car stopped when he saw the figure he missed so much was walking on the sidewalk.

"I can finally meet you" Ryan murmured with a smile as someone walked in front of him. "Fris! Friska wait!" ryan yelled as he bounced his head out the car window.

He then parked the car, then followed the girl who was still stepping even though he had called her many times.

"Fris, wait!" With a breath of gasping for a run, Ryan grabbed the hand of the girl who kept walking, stopping her. "From the moment I called you, why don't you stop?" continued Ryan.
