After Fian came home, I cleaned up my drink and washed it. I wonder, the question arises in my mind why Dad did not meet his friend's son. I asked Dad after washing the glass, before I took a shower.
“Dad, why didn't you meet Fian?” I asked dad.
“Create what” Reply Father briefly.
“Yes just to meet, what's wrong? Kan Fian is also the son of the son of the father's deket.”
“Dad only wants to see someone who wants to get serious with you. Besides Dad won't see her.”
I just kept quiet to hear Dad and went straight to the bathroom. I don't need to think deeply. I also have no feelings for Fian. After all mending thought of SBMPTN. Huh, I am very sad because SNMPTN failed. I also graduated. Yesampun, it feels so fast. But this is the most appropriate time of proof to go through all my failures.
Oiya I have a promise to Indra that I will admit everything. I promised him that I would confess that I gave him the thick jacket and Maths book, according to what I wrote on his birthday card. I am also happy that Indra was accepted into one of the State Universities in Jogja with Pure Mathematics program. I think the book I gave her was very useful. Wait for me to catch up with you, Ndra. May we be one university, aamiin.
Oiya until almost forgot, I have not replied to whatsapp messages from Ariz.
“What do you mean, Riz?” My toot.
“Halo, power off. There is no meaning to anything just by chance there were words like that and I can send it to you, Key. Hehe.”
“What is it. Wkwk happy dark huh. Keep the candle well let dapet much tonight.”
“Jagain how are you?”
“Hih what the hell, Riz. Doesn't have any doubt about your fight if it's me.”
“Ya, what's the harm in trying?”
“Oh so just want to try to?”
“Serious try :’) ”
“Halah joked mutely from earlier. I want to be serialized.”
“Patience is not yet the time wkwkwk.”
“Wkwkwkwk Yes. Btw I'm off first yes.”
“OK by my boss. Passion for recognition day tomorrow yaa.”

Yogyakarta, May 2017
The day of confession arrived. I've prepared a mature plan with my two best friends Dinu and Monita.
“Key, so will you do Indra?” Ask Dinu.
“Yampun, just ngagetin. Yes so. I choose the net gladi graduation day for fear of graduation ga had time.”
“Iya, okay later I wait in XI IPS 2 yes. After the clean gladi.”
“OK later I'm with Monita to there.”
After the clean rehearsal, Monita and I went to the XI class of IPS 2. It seems I have become unsure to admit that the one who gave Indra a birthday gift for the past two years was me. But anyway I told you, so I have to keep my word.
“Key, are you sure you want to do all this?”
“Yam au how else, Mon.”
“Eh, there's whatsapp from Dinu. He said they'll be coming to this class soon. I'm so nervous, Mon.”
Dinu and Indra opened the classroom door. Indra wonders constantly to Dinu about who exactly gave her the birthday gift all along.
“So, who gave me the gift? You, Key? Or you, Mon?”
“Emm.. so gini, Ndra. So all this time it was me.” I was ashamed, I swear. To admit all this, until all night I kept thinking.
“So you, Key? Sorry yes I can't reply you.”
Yaampun, what does Indra mean? Why so prickly. Yeah, what the hell, Ndra. But it hurts not bleeding. Yes, I know you can't return my feelings. Yeah, I know the end will be like this. Yes, I have been waiting in silence for the past two years.
“Iya. Why, Ndra. I mean, I admit this is all to be relieved. We have graduated and may rarely meet or even meet again. Let me be relieved that's the point.”
“Oalah okay. Thanks a lot, Key. May your kindness be reciprocated by the One Above.”
“Iya. Aamiins. Yaudah yuk home late afternoon.”
Monita and Dinu just smiled at the conversation between me and Indra. Maybe they know how I feel and maybe they know something like this. Indra is famous for being the same girl. But yes, Indra has a lot of fans. Hmmm..sweet biking a hold anyway. Lucky girl who can crush his heart. The four of us then headed to the parking lot and went home.
I'm sure, someday there will be someone who treats me like I treat Indra. It's just a matter of time.

“Hey, how's the story about the day of recognition?” I received whatsapp from Ariz.
“Yes, that's it.”
“How is it? Story dong story.”
“Reject.”
“Duh kasian's. What did he say?”
“The point can't be that bales. I keep telling you that I told you to let it be relieved. Ah tau ah dizzy. This is Fian even asked for certainty with me. How should I do, Riz?”
“Who? A fian? You haven't told Fian to me yet.”
“Hah? Never been po?”
“Iya no. Story here.”
“Duh, the story is long. The point is I like Indra but Indra doesn't like me. Continues this even there is a guy who likes the same I dana kunya even do not like him.”
“Yaudah, reject aja.”
“That's it?”
“Cowok likes girls firmly.”
“Emm, okay fine. Thanks yes, Riz.”
“Create?”
“Yes you are my best friend who is always there for me. Listening to my grievances and advising me when I need them. Actually I just need to be horrified sometimes.”
“Iya, equally. I'm ready to be an ear for you, Key.”
Well, Ariz's words just made me smile and so I must be baper dong. Yes, really, really, Key.
