I put my suitcase on the floor and sat down on a chair that was in my room. We just moved into Grandma's old house. I've been trying hard to persuade Grandma to move to her old house. I've made a thousand reasons to make her agree.

Kenan would have immediately looked for Grandma's house when he found out that I had changed schools, and I didn't want him to find me.

I don't want to be Kenan's weakness; he can easily lose control if someone brings up a video about me. His life is already difficult enough; I don't want to add to the burden for him.

"Should I help you organize your clothes?" Grandma just came into my room; she smiled and sat on the edge of my bed.

"No need; I didn't bring much stuff. I'll be shopping after school tomorrow." I leaned closer to Grandma, sat down beside her, and hugged her arm gently.

"All right, tidy up your things; I will order food for us to have dinner. Ah, your dad seems very hungry. He continues to move restlessly downstairs."

I chuckled softly at my g

    "Are your friends good to you? I asked Dad as soon as I came down to the dining room."Yeah, they're very friendly, especially after Grandma threatened," I said, glancing at Grandma.Well, yeah! I'm not lying; almost all of my friends have been met by a grandma just to introduce her beloved granddaughter, who will live in this village.They wouldn't dare bother me because she threatened."If anyone dares to bully you, I will make sure to punish her or him!" Grandma exclaimed casually.I shook my head weakly while Dad just gently rubbed the back of his neck."Dad, come back to Jakarta! Your work will be neglected if you stay here with me!" I cried, tugging at his sleeve."Don't worry, I can do my work online," Dad said casually. He glanced at me, winked one eye mischievously, and smiled broadly.Whatever!I saw Grandma, who was preparing side dishes. I also ran over to her and helped her bring our dinner side dish to the dining table."Grandma, do you know Calvin?" I asked, sitting clo

    "Your Flower Garden?" I screamed in disbelief.The garden, with an area of one hectare filled with various kinds of flowers, belongs to Grandma. Who believes it?If I had one hectare of land, I would build shops, houses, and so on. But grandma? She made it a flower garden."When I passed it, I thought this was a government flower garden to attract tourists!" I shouted, making Grandma chuckle softly.How come? I just found out that the flower garden that I always pass after school belongs to my grandma.Extraordinary!"Your mom likes flowers; in the past, she always brought wildflowers she found on the road to plant them in pots. After your mom left, I planted them whenever I missed her. Now, there are so many flowers; I just realized it," Grandma said as she took my hand and led me around.There are so many kinds of flowers; the fragrance of roses smells as soon as the wind blows on us."Don't you want to sell it? You can open a flower shop or something!" I exclaimed enthusiastically.

    I stare at the laptop in front of me. I'm trying to think positively and assume that this is all the fault of a bad internet connection or something. I can't find Kenan's social media accounts. The account disappeared.Did Kenan accidentally delete his account? Does he not want me to see him from a distance? Or was his social media account hacked by someone? What really happened to him?Then what should I do now? Only on social media can I keep seeing him; now I can't do it anymore. What should I do to overcome my longing?With a heavy heart, I closed my laptop screen and left my room."Today, you are off school, right? Do you want to go to the mall with Grandma?" asked Grandma from the direction of the kitchen."Today I have to clean the shop and make sure all the equipment is complete. I have a lot of things to do; we can go to the mall next time, Grandma!" I said as I walked quickly over to her."Ah, I forgot you've been very busy lately. Is this a burden for you?"Grandma came to

    I smiled again. This is the grand opening of the flower shop I named Jasmine Shop. There were so many customers coming, as well as several delivery service drivers who ordered flowers. At a time like this, I have to spread a fake smile. No matter how messed up and broken my heart is, I have to keep smiling to look good in the eyes of my customers.Flowers are a symbol of affection and care. What would happen if I served my customers with a wilted face? All my flowers will wither before their eyes."I'm having a birthday party in my yard, so I need a lot of flowers; can you recommend a good one?"I smiled broadly at the request of one of my customers. I also showed her a catalog of flowers and some floral decorations for her to reference.To be honest, this job is really fun. I met a lot of new people and was able to share stories and love with them; it's just that my mind could never really get off Kenan.Kenan completely forgot about me. There was not a single trace of us that I coul

    "This is not a hangout place; get out of here!" I looked annoyed at my two friends, who were lying on a chair in the small garden corner of my shop.They always do this, lying here eating snacks and watching movies. Luckily, my customers never mind their presence. Come on, it's like I have two wayward children who always follow me everywhere."You don't know how stressed I am? Where should I continue my studies? We graduated a week ago, but I'm still confused about where to go to college!" Vivian exclaimed as she straightened up and looked at me with narrow eyes.Studying? Of course! Everyone is busy with college preparations. We graduated from high school a week ago, and at a time when everyone already has their dream university, only the three of us are still relaxing in this place without knowing whether we should go to college or not.Dad and Grandma kept forcing me to return to Jakarta to continue studying at the top universities there. It's just that I'm not sure if I'll be able

    "What?" shouted Calvin with a booming voice. Now, the entire room in this cafe was filled with that very loud voice. I'm used to this, so it's fine with me. He's just that kind of person."Calvin, don't make a scene!" Vivian slapped the back of Calvin's head, making him wince in pain.I just sat pretty and showed my innocent smile in front of Vivian and Calvin."I heard that the university in Jakarta is quite good; I will wholeheartedly support it if you continue your studies there! Your future will be bright there!" Vivian exclaimed enthusiastically."Can you think again? There are so many good universities in this country that, even if you want, you can study abroad! Why do you have to go back there?" Calvin retorted with sharp eyes."So what if Kei returns to Jakarta? Her father is there, and the university is also quite good, so where is the problem?" Vivian growled, glaring at Calvin.I nodded slowly. I know why Calvin doesn't like it; he doesn't like it when I'm in the same town

    "Welcome Home!" Dad shouted, unlocking the house's security alarm.I laughed at some of the traps I had memorized by heart.I thought Dad had given up his habit of experimenting, but he hasn't.I stepped in my dad's footsteps because if I hadn't, I would have stuck to the glue on the very sticky floor. My memory immediately floats back to when Gab was trapped there. Poor boy."Don't touch anything before I finish entering the password!" Dad ordered.I nodded and took a deep breath. What if a good person wants to visit? It's quite dangerous."Well, hasn't the manager of this estate changed and tightened security? Why are you still doing this?" I asked as soon as we entered the house."Unlucky days aren't on the calendar; didn't you know that?" said Dad casually.I nodded reluctantly. Yeah, that's true... It's just that this is a bit excessive.I roamed my eyes all over the house. The home still looks and feels the same as it did the last time I set foot here. And it immediately reminde

    My hands are shaking, my legs feel so weak, and my heart is going crazy. I can even hear the pounding sound.I should have just said yes to Dad's offer to investigate where Kenan went to college. Because I rejected him, I had to bear the consequences of being on the same campus as that guy.How about now?Kenan stood ten meters from where I was. He's having a casual conversation with Gab as well as another guy I don't know. He looks very healthy and happy.It seems Kenan has forgotten about me and is living a good life. I'm grateful for that.Now, my job is just to dodge as much as I can.I'm not sure how Kenan will react if he sees me. He could have been angry or even indifferent; even so, I didn't want to make things worse by showing up in front of him.Just think positively; Indonesia Jaya University is very big. Once Study Orientation is done, we won't be doing the same activity. So, I dodge as best I can."So, you're here, huh?" Someone shouted from behind me.I looked back and f

    The heat of the city of Jakarta immediately greeted me as soon as I left the airport. I waved at one of the taxis, and immediately got into the taxi while the driver put my luggage in the trunk.It's been more than five months since I left Jakarta to volunteer in one of the remote towns in Kalimantan. A month after the birth of the twins, a very big disaster occurred in Kalimantan. I decided to join an organization from my campus to volunteer there. Because the conditions were so bad, I decided to stay there longer than the other volunteers.I asked the driver to take me to a cafe that I used to frequent with Violet.After arriving there, I sent a message to Violet to meet me at that place.“Kei!” Violet shouted from the entrance, making all the customers there immediately turn to look at the girl. It seems like she's still as noisy as before.Violet ran to hug me tightly.“Oh My God! Are you wearing make-up?" shrieked the girl in disbelief.Oh, yes! While I was in Kalimantan, I liked

    Violet and I immediately stood up and looked around when the group of police entered the campus area. Some of them entered the Chancellor's room, and some immediately spread out and arrested several people."What happened?" Violet screamed while hiding behind my back."They came to arrest drug users and dealers," said Vano, who had just come to us with Kenan."Does this have anything to do with Adipati's case?" I asked while looking closely at Kenan.The man just nodded slowly. I breathed a sigh of relief hearing that."Unfortunately, the perpetrator of the murder is still at large, the police are hunting him in Bali, because they fled there." Kenan looked at me with a sad look.I smiled in response to his words.“Sooner or later they will be found. I am sure of it. After all, the drug suspects had been caught, Adipati's struggle was not in vain. Now just wait for them to be found!” I said casually.Kenan smiled faintly, then nodded slowly. Kenan's cell phone rang, the man immediately

    "Wisnu?" I shouted, surprised to see who was coming towards us.I turned to Kenan who also looked confused.Wisnu sat down and drank the coffee that we previously ordered for the informant who contacted Kenan."You shopped for necessities for your sister?" Wisnu asked with a smile.I nod quickly."She's seven months pregnant so we bought some things," I said even though I was still confused."Someone keeps following me, so it's safer to meet in a public place like this, as if meeting a friend and having a casual chat," said Wisnu casually.I nodded slowly.“Why don't you message me with your own number? Or if you are being followed, you can say it in a message," Kenan said.Wisnu smiled so widely."I don't know, I'm afraid if my number is tapped or something, it's just my worry. Technology is so scary these days.” Wisnu said, trying to look relaxed.I nod quickly. I don't care what the reason is. I only need the information that Wisnu will convey.“Recently on campus, drugs are spread

    "Mafia members who are related to the Marko family," Kenan said slowly.I stared into Kenan's eyes sharply. He said it so confidently.“They did it? So, Marko's family is behind this murder? Why does it have to be Adipati? Why don't they just target me? I mean, Marko is in prison because of me, not because of Adipati. Why are they doing this?”Kenan just shook his head weakly in response to my words."I will investigate, I will bring the culprit before you," Kenan said while stroking my cheek gently."You promise?" I insisted.Kenan nodded slowly without the slightest hesitation.“I doubt if they killed him to get revenge for Marko's capture. I'm sure there are other things that make them target Adipati,” Kenan said slowly.I shook my head slowly. I don't remember if Adipati ever had anything to do with them.“Is there anything I can help you with? How are you going to investigate this?” I urged Kenan.The man just shook his head slowly, he looked at me deeply."Calm down, we have to

    I'm still here, I'm still with you, when dusk greets me, I feel your presence. You are a source of warmth, comfort, happiness. Why don't you take me with you? You went and left all these memories with me.It's too fast, I'm not ready, I'm not willing to let you go.What shall I do without you, Adipati?What should I do?"Kei..."Violet's gentle voice greeted my eardrums. The girl came to me and sat beside me. I don't want to see her, the whiny me will cry again if I look at my best friend's face.Violet just accompanied me in silence in front of Adipati's grave."It's almost evening, don't you want to go home?" Violet asked quietly.I looked up at the sky which was starting to get dark, the cold wind continued to blow at us."Can't I just stay here? Adipati will be lonely here," I answered quietly."No, he will be angry and sad if he finds out you spent time in a dark and scary place like this," said Violet.Correct. If he saw me, he would definitely be furious.“Your dad and Selena a

    Vano slept curled up on the sofa while Kenan played games on the bed. Violet cleared her throat, making Kenan and Vano open their eyes wide.“Kei?" Kenan shouted as he approached me. He pulled the IV tube closer to me who was still standing in the doorway.“Your face is very pale, are you okay?” I asked slowly.Kenan smiled faintly, then nodded slowly. Violet helped me to sit on the sofa. She then woke up the sleeping Vano and invited him to go to give me space to talk to Kenan.Kenan sat beside me, looked at me from head to toe, and breathed a sigh of relief."It's not your fault, so don't blame yourself," I said matter-of-factly.Kenan immediately averted his eyes, not daring to meet my eyes. He looked nervous. Kenan, who is always full of confidence, suddenly gets nervous when he's with me. That's how much guilt he has.I took Kenan's hand, and then held it gently, making him immediately turn and look at me deeply."This is not your fault. It's just a road I have to walk, we pass.

    Marko was still looking at me sharply, occasionally he gripped both sides of my cheeks with one hand.I don't know what was in that man's mind. He could have done whatever he wanted quickly, why was he stalling for time? What does he really want?"What if we do this? I will release you on several conditions!” Marko suddenly shouted."What conditions?""First, you withdraw your report at the police station, second, give Kenan to me!" Marko exclaimed quickly."What?" I screamed in disbelief.“You know, he's not just anyone, I had a hard time injuring him! I've already sent several people to kill him, but it seems like he has nine spare lives. Very hard to kill!”I gaped at Marko's story. Did he ever try to kill Kenan? Why didn't Kenan tell me anything? Oh, I forgot. Kenan never told me anything.“Help me trap Kenan, haven't you two broken up? It should be easy for you to do! Just like you saved Violet by falling into my trap, save yourself by bringing Kenan to me!”My tears just flowed.

    "Is this necessary?" asked Selena seeing the presence of a bodyguard among us."Only until this case is over," I said quickly.Selena glanced at Dad, and Dad just nodded slowly."How about you? You might also be in danger, rather than me, you should be guarded by bodyguards!” Selena snapped."Don't worry, I have a handsome bodyguard who will always take care of me!" I wink at Selena mischievously, making her smile knowingly."I'm sorry that I didn't take good care of you, you got into all kinds of trouble like this." Dad came closer to me and looked at me with deep eyes."No, it's not because of you, it's my fault because I used to hide everything from you. If I had just told you everything in the past, things wouldn't have gotten this bad!” I said quickly.Dad hugged me very gently. I don't know when was the last time he hugged me like this, what I know for sure, is it's been a very long time.“I will make sure to punish those naughty kids!” cried Dad with great emphasis.I didn't sa

    The sound of the phone ringing kept disturbing my sleep. Hearing Violet's screams from the cell phone made me very annoyed. If I didn't remember that my cell phone is quite expensive, I wouldn't hesitate to slam the thing on the floor right now.And seriously, why does Violet always use her voice as the ringer on my cell phone? Crazy!I straightened my body, stretched my tense muscles, and took a deep breath of air.Good morning world, today… Please don't be so mean to me.I pulled out my cell phone and picked up a call from Violet.“Please, don't fiddle with my phone anymore! Your voice penetrates my dreams, you know that?” I exclaimed annoyed.A low chuckle could be heard from the other side.“My voice is quite melodious, right? By the way, why didn't you go to class today?"Wait! What did she just say? Didn't go to class? I turned to the side, staring blankly at the digital clock lying on my table.Damn it, the clock shows that I woke up not in the morning but during the day."And
