. After work, Arisa stopped by a cafe first. Before long, Rayyan approached him in a hurry.

"I'm late. Have you been waiting a long time?" Rayyan asked with breath still puffing. Arisa shook her head then threw a smile after gulping down the drink she ordered.

"10 mins. But it's okay, Aray." After Arisa said so, the two became silent for a while.

"Aray said Xavier..."

"Risa was Xavier." said the two at the same time, but returned silent after hearing Xavier's name spoken by them.

"Xavier?" Again, the two asked simultaneously.

"Why Xavier?" Rayyan asked first.

"You too. Why Xavier?" Reply Arisa is equally curious.

"You go first." Rayyan said no less curious.

"No-no. You go first."

"Risa. Xavier said what?"

"You too. What was Xavier?"

"Tadi Xavier came to my office. He said you were lucky to get me. And today he's back in town. He's hoping to have a farewell with us." Obviously Rayyan put on a confused face of her own and still did not understand why Xavier said so.

"But this morning he said say hello to you. Then, I said just come to your company. I guess he's just stale." Arisa was no less confused when explaining about her conversation with Xavier this morning.

"Looks, she likes you Risa. I saw it in his eyes. When he said your name, he was very sparkling."

"Aray. I don't care about him. Even though he stayed at my house for 3 nights, and we often met face to face while eating and meeting dad, but it didn't make me think he liked me or I liked him. I am very worried about her looks like you. But, I'm not-"

"Already.stop babbling. I knew you'd say that. So, I'm not worried about you. I was jealous of Xavier. But if seeing you who's indifferent and doesn't care about her, it's enough to make me relieved."

"Thank you for believing me." Reply Arisa with a smile that expands both feel relieved.

"You're just ordering a drink?" Rayyan asked next after the two were silent and felt the discussion about Xavier was finished.

"I'm waiting for you, sir."

"Did? Why don't you just order first."

"You think I'll eat well while you're still starving?" Suddenly Rayyan chuckled and then patted Arisa's cheek with anxiety.

"It turns out Xavier was wrong" said Rayyan narrowed Arisa's eyes as if asking what she meant.

"Xavier says you're the lucky one to get me to love you so much. But I'm actually lucky to get you."

"Then we're a lucky couple. Do not praise one-sidedly. If you hadn't fought until this moment for me, I might still be dissolved in my past, and the wounds might not have healed until now."

"Sutttt suuttttt silent sir. Don't bring up my past. How are you yourself? Raisa's? The clara? Michelle? Hemm? And many more. May I name one-on-one sir?" His sneering smile accompanied the deadly question for Rayyan.

"Do you want me to kiss in public now?" Threatens Rayyan to stop Arisa's babbling.

"Cheat.. cheated." Delik Arisa started sulking turning her face the other way. But he turned back to Rayyan with a surprised face.

"Eh Aray's. If you remember, when Rais got married, Bayu didn't come?" Suddenly Rayyan turned her ghostly face into gloomy. Only a few seconds he was happy because it made Arisa sulked, but instead he threw Arisa questions about other men.

"Not knowing." Rayyan answered, turning her face and propping her chin with her hands.

"Lied." Ejek Arisa again put on a sulking face.

"Ishhh why ask someone else? I'm in front of you, Risa. You don't appreciate my feelings." Rayyan protest is no less sulking than Arisa.

"It's not about making you angry. It's just that Arya's om with dad has been close for a long time, why did Arya and sister Bayu not come?"

"Hmmmphhh, Bayu wants to get married, it should not go anywhere. Anticipate bad things to happen. Even though it did not happen to the bride, the cannons of calamity who knows? The temptation to marry is hard, baby. So it has to be extra careful and it has to be smart to take care of yourself." Obviously Rayyan who continuously sighed heavily at the sign did not want to discuss further.

"Ohhh... So when you and Rais are getting married too, the ordeal is hard? How long can I not leave the house?" Rayyan gave a clear glance that greatly avoided the silly conversation that Arisa had discussed earlier. Rayyan prefers to order food and does not answer Arisa's questions. Although the servant had passed, Rayyan chose to be quiet and her face showed more annoyance for Arisa to understand.

"Ah I forgot. The trials are on me, right? If only I hadn't run away, I would've-"

"Risa's quiet!" Rayyan snapped all the attention of visitors there. Arisa is surprised, but she still casually responds to Rayyan's clash which makes her a spectacle for other visitors. Seen now Rayyan's face is very stressed, Arisa feels guilty for not thinking if Rayyan is tired.

"Aray sorry!" Said Arisa in a soft voice and turned her face away.

"I'm the one who apologized to Risa." Rayyan did not lose slowly by still putting on an annoyed face. "I want you to talk no more about the past. I will be the one who regrets the most for ever agreeing to my matchmaking with your brother." The next is softening.

"Is your job exhausting?" Ask Arisa next.

"so. I'm sorry. I yelled at you." Rayyan grabbed Arisa's hand. Arisa just nodded in response, she was a little sorry for speaking indistinctly and not thinking about Rayyan's condition. Although it looks fine and covered in jokes, Rayyan must be very tired.

. Later that night, Rayyan returns to pick up Arisa and together leave for the city of Jogja. Where there will be a wedding ceremony Bayu.

"you're with Rayyan too?" Raisa asks who followed Arisa to the car.

"Oh of course. I don't want to let your sister come unaccompanied to her ex-boyfriend's wedding." Rayyan replied firmly but tucked in a tinge of emotion.

"Eh... Who's the ex-boyfriend? He's not my ex-boyfriend! Don't fuck up Aray. Or you don't come with me." Typal Arisa who immediately threatened.

"ohhh you want to hang out with Bayu so you don't want me to come? That so?"

"What woman am I, huh? If I was going to turn my back on you, maybe I was with someone else in the first place." Reply Arisa does not want to lose the debate.

"If you guys keep fighting, I'll leave now!" Firmly Tio stopped their debate.
