...A real man who can ...

...And ...

...A good man can be seen by the way he treats his woman....

...*** ...

These days Axel and Anggia are getting closer and can even call for hours. Ssssttt is a secret yes, so at that time Anggia decided to open her heart to Axel and Axel also tried to move on. Axel hopes Anggia can make him move on from the past.

It's nice if everything goes according to destiny. Each person is met with happiness, usually it comes from unexpected events and who would have thought. The earth is round, remember. Wherever you go you will never really go.

Today is September 6th. A quiet Saturday in Jakarta. I just finished packing my things before leaving, at one in the morning to the windmill country. Whether it's just a feeling or a hunch, I feel like today everyone I've messaged is busy. Whether it was Agas, Aldira, Diandra, Diana, Fellicia, Ivanna, Jihan, Anggia, Axel and others why there was no reply from them.

Buset dah this on stranded on the island all or in goa anyway.

My grouse is upset by itself. Just imagine a few more hours I will leave Jakarta, not for a day or two but a week. They disappeared without a trace. Daebak.

I decided to sleep a few hours so as not to get tired at the airport later. Just hope they disappear they're all signs of something good. Actually, I really hope they are stranded on an island that has no signal at all, where the ocean is filled with various types of sharks. Too bad I'm too good to hope that happens.

5.00 PM.

"Sore aunt!!!" Excited Fellicia, Aldira, Jihan also Ivanna.

"So also kids. Come in first" replied Sonya, leading them into the house.

"Calista, is there aunty?" Aldira immediately asked without ba bi bu.

"So, he's in his room, sleeping. I think the soybean from earlier aunty pergatiin restless continues" replied Sonya with a face that is difficult to read.

The four of them looked at each other while discussing something before executing their plans. Then focus again on Sonya.

"Tante, tomorrow is Calista's birthday. Since tomorrow he is not in Indonesia, so we want to give a surprise later the night before Calista leaves aunt." It was clearly Fellicia who began to reveal their plans to Sonya.

After a few minutes of discussing all the stages of their plan, Sonya finally helped them. And this afternoon they'll bring Calista to prepare everything. Of course they do not themselves carry out the plan.

Elsewhere Agas has booked a theater in the west Jakarta area just to present something to people who have been with him for almost 7 years. Agas is not alone of course, there are his college friends, high school friends they both are also friends of Calista although not all of them are involved.

"Where? Are you all ready yet? Don't forget my flower bouquet. Are you ready yet? Anyway, later I want everything perfect" chatter Agas excited. Hope his efforts are not in vain.

"Weitsat. Relax bro. Tense huh? I forgot to breathe." Ledek Sasena Iqbal Abhimanyu. One of Agas' close friends on campus.

"Gue is exaggerating, right? How do you feel about lamar people's children yaaa?" Agas complained of worry. Worried that his plan isn't satisfactory. Agas is not a romantic guy.

"Gas? The name of the darling should not be indicated by the words doang. It takes effort, struggle and prayer" Iqbal said was able to make Agas relax again and continue their preparation.

"Lo knows I'm not a romantic guy. Even Calista himself often complains, so I am confused how to give surprise that he will never escape, Bal." Agas complained again while exhaling empty breath.

"Emang the guy who held the words Gas. But in my opinion, the guy who is really a guy is really in view of the way he treats his woman Gas. Just like you treat your nyokap" this time Agas felt filled with Iqbal speech. Yes, a good man by the way he treats his woman.

The night came with a twilight that began to fade. The sky was not as close as before to the scattered light that shimmered from thousands of stars filled the sky. The wind blew against my skin. Tonight before leaving, my four best friends and I were waiting for a movie ticket.

"What to watch here?" My complaints are upset because of their behavior. How not, go all the way to the cinema just to watch a movie that has a lot of drama. If not dead the ending of the girl married to someone else and so on. Uninspiring.

"Jaelah Lis weigh watch, sit down, diem. Do not be noisy" said Aldira who made me more upset.

"The problem is if you watch doang why do we look like people want the famous anyway?" My gertutuku while pursing lips.

"DIAAMM!!!" Shouted the three of them in unison telling me to shut up.

"Now the ticket, hold one-on-one huh?" Said Fellicia who was a few minutes ago queuing up tickets for us.

"Lohs. Why won't you guys just enter, love to mbaknya" my words replied by the plotting of the four of them.

"OKAY. Fine. I'm Shut up now." My lips have begun to thin their patience.

"Calistas?" Call Ivanna restless.

"Moreover now?" I said that I was upset but I could still hold it.

"Temenin to toilet dong. I swore a big oath" while pulling my hand running towards the ladies' room.

"Calista has been brought Ivanna ayook our hunted enter continue to be ready in their respective positions." Aldira.

"Sir, later if there are two girls whose name is Calista. Directly between ya mbak to his stool which yesterday has been booked my friend. In the name of Agas Cokrodinoto." Clearly Jihan to the recipient of cinema tickets. After they gave their instructions, they went inside according to the instructions from Agas last afternoon.

Inside the theater is crowded with friends, friends and close relatives of Calista and Agas. Everything inside is anxious. Agas also sits at the very corner in seat A right wing. With a sense of stubbornness, anxiety, worry until cold sweat in place.

Before long the cinema lights began to dim and slowly darken. When the screen has not been turned on, Calista and Ivanna are delivered by the ticket officer with a flashlight to the designated seat. Luckily Calista did not feel suspicious that one theater was the people who were in his life. Agas can breathe a little relieved because of it.

The movie was played a few minutes ago. Suddenly the screen died and then came back to life but this time it was not the film they had just watched but a creative birthday greeting film also gokil from relatives, but this time it was not the film they had just watched but a creative birthday greeting film, friends and all friends of Calista.

Calista just stared at the spot while closing his mouth and suddenly shed tears looking at the videos. Then smile and laugh and tear up again during the video of her 16th birthday with Agas until their 21st birthday.

Then the backsound voice changed with Agas' voice reciting a sweet word for him.

He was present when my heart was tired in the search for the right place to stop by. He was present when I needed a place to lean on, laying waste to being disappointed by the past. He was present when I lost control of myself to dare to start reshaping my happiness.

The video turns into a short film that chronicles the beginning of their relationship. Calista was still glued to the screen and everyone in that place.

His presence brings coolness along with warm hugs. Being around him I felt calm. I was never afraid to fall again, even though it might happen.

Secretly Agas walked up to Calista who was still in his seat. With a bouquet of red roses tucked behind his shirt rolled over his elbow.

Loving her is an attempt to shed the past, indeed nothing will go very well without the slightest problem.

Then the lights went on..

But with him, I'll never give up.

Joyful cheers rumbled as soon as Agas' words on the screen ended. Then Agas walked towards the front of the screen and faced Calista. The tears just broke from Calista. With trembling steps Calista walked towards Agas and tightly hugged Agas as if he was dreaming.

"Happy Birthday Calista" whispered Agas as he dyed his hair.
