The first day of college, Ei was more alone because he needed to adapt. Moreover, the environment here is very very very different from the environment in Indonesia. America is known as a liberal country where all humans in this country are free to do whatever they like.
In terms of culture and social alone is much different so that Ei feels lonely too. The girl missed her college friends and almost fused her dreams and returned to Indonesia. However, when he saw how magnificent the Harvard University building was and how great all the people here made Ei put everything aside and focus on pursuing his career even though he could not be denied he missed Hesa very much.
“What is Hesa doing now? Why he hasn't called me yet. Did ... something happen?” muttered Ei while staring at the scene outside the window of his dorm room. Ei chose to live in a student dormitory called Harvard Yard.
Just thinking about it, suddenly an unknown number called Ei and the girl immediately picked him up out of curiosity. Who knows, it was Hesa. And sure enough, the melodious voice of Hesa immediately adorned the face as soft as Ei.
“You missed me?” ask someone from across the street and Ei knows whose voice this is.
“No,” replied Ei while shy cat. "I hate you."
“Sweetly, even though I missed you so much that I was half dead.”
“Basic gumbal! Whose number is this? Why use a new number, I almost blocked this number.”Ej tries to cover up her flowery feelings on Hesa's phone.
“I use a friend's number, there's a lot going on but I can't tell you now. For the next few days maybe I can't reach you.”
Hearing the bad news, Ei's face immediately turned anxious. “What's up? Is there a problem?” tanyakanya.
“Ehm, slightly. I can't tell you right now. Have you eaten?” ask Hesa.
“Already. Want vc?” tawar Ei wondered what had happened to his heart lover. Ei also wanted to see Hesa's face.
“I'm out to solve my problem. Once you're done, I'll call you back. I'm sorry, honey, I can't take long. I'm happy to hear your voice and you look fine there. Bye .. I love you forever. I love you to death. I love you so much. Muah muah ..” Hesa immediately closed his call before Ei opened his voice.
“Basic baby marmot knee bird, what the hell is that? Just close the call. So annoying. Childish basis,” muttered Ei keki himself, but he smiled as well. “Asataga ... Why do I love him, focus Ei. Forget Hesa for a moment and concentrate on learning.” Ei convinces herself not to keep thinking about her lover who is somehow in trouble.
This is all very new to Ei. A new environment, a new life, and Ei start all over again after having lied to everyone about his false status with Hesa even though now the relationship between the two has become real.

The next morning, Ei leaves for college as usual, thanks to the spirit of his lover who contacted him last night, Ei becomes more cheerful in passing the days at this Harvard campus.
The girl started greeting her classmates and mingled with everything. In an instant, Ei and his classmates were instantly familiar. They even talk a lot and discuss about the courses they follow.
“You to canteen together?” asked Jesica, one of Ei's friends who was already familiar with her.
“Bby,” said Ei happy. The two of them walked together and a few boys suddenly came over to Ei and Jesica.
“Halo ... You're Ei right? New students from Indo. Hello, I'm Clark.” One of the handsome bule men extended his hand to Ei.
Jessica is instantly a manyun because Clark is one of the campus idols here. Instead of greeting her, instead greeting Ei.
Who you know, who you know. Jessica was quite surprised as well but she was very happy to see this strange action of Ei. When else could shake the school idol's hand directly if it wasn't for that weird Ei.
“Why don't you shake my hand? Don't worry you're beautiful, you're acting cocky here?” clark said that he did not accept and felt unappreciated by Ei.
Ei kisses the unpleasant gurgle here.Roughly Clark brushes Jessica's hand and makes the girl so embarrassed. Ei stepped forward to his new friend and looked intently at the college idol's eyes.
“My friend has represented me, he is more entitled and worthy to shake hands with you than I am. You're right, I come from Indonesia where the eastern culture there knows better how to be polite than here. Here the country is free, there is no written rule that prohibits you from having to be in a relationship with whom. Including my good friend.”
Clark immediately threw his face away while laughing. Just this time there was a lady who refused to shake hands with him and instead handed over her friend's hand to replace her shaking hands.
Ei's actions immediately upset Clark because in addition to being a campus idol, he is also a playboy. There are already many women on this campus who are victims of their feelings and on average they are pregnant out of wedlock. Because this is a free country, it is very natural to happen and not a problem. Especially if they do it on the basis of liking.
“Still I want to know, why don't you shake my hand? All the women here are crazy about me. Is it because you're prettier, then sell expensive?”
“I can't shake hands with just any man in this country. I already have a lover. So ... Don't try to approach me again. Nice to meet you, excuse me.” Ei doesn't want to waste time dealing with a striped-nose male model who likes to plant here on all women.
He better go and just focus on his studies. He does not want to find problems here and wants to immediately return to Indonesia once all his college eyes are resolved credits.
To be honest, Ei didn't feel at home here. In addition to not matching the habits of all its citizens, he does not like the liberal system run in this country where crime is very high. Well even though according to the residents here, the system is the best for them compared to other government systems.
“Wuah, you're great Ei. You're the only woman who's rejected the college idol's raucous approach. Amazing!” exclamation Jesica who managed to catch up to Ei. The two are currently sitting face to face at one of the cafeteria tables.
“But you idolize people like Clark, are there no better men on campus than him? At least, not a female predator.” Ei started to express his opinion.
“Secare of different people. In your eyes he's a rogue who likes to toy with women everywhere. Come on. This is America, Free sex is everywhere and they do it with anyone. It doesn't matter to me what kind of person he is, which I obviously love him.”
Ei took a long breath. Ribet when talking about love that there is no definite logic to describe it. Let alone this America, everyone is free to do whatever they like without anyone forbidding.
“Ya already, it's up to you.” Ei looked at the fruit he took from the canteen and ate it. Ei and Jessica did not know that from outside the window of the canteen someone was watching the two of them.
"What's up?" jesica asked after looking at her head out the window.
"Something's watching us."
"You're all there is, what we're being watched for, we're not criminals. Don't be afraid.
