Gery glanced at Evan who looked dreamy while occasionally smiling. As usual, Gery noticed the strange attitude Evan showed. All this time he knew Evan as a serious and cold male figure. Especially with women. Just this time Evan's face beamed after meeting a woman.
"Are you okay, Van" said Gery to disperse his reverie.
"You mean?" evan answered back asking.
"I smell the scent of love here"
"Haha... Did you eat the wrong loe medicine?" ejek Evan does not want to lose.
"Udah pursue there... I'm blessing loe" Gery's seductive goda.
"The son of the devil." scorned Evan did not accept.
"If I'm a son of the devil, my mother means the devil too. I told you my mom...!!!"
"say there. All say the same father loe, grandfather loe, grandmother loe the same all sodara loe.." instead of angry, Gery even terkak hear Evan's babble that began to piety seduced by his temptation.
"Which name is Nanda beautiful as well huh" Evan stared intently at Gery. The impulsive gaze that was possible at the moment only Evan knew the meaning.
"Regularly brooo... I just said pretty. Can dong... That means my eyes are still normal, hahahaha..."
"Unfortunately she's Alvin's girlfriend" Evan said with a rude snort.
"Alvin's? You mean Loe Alvin who's loe's nemesis, bro?" gery asked to be sure.
"He-"em"
"Loe knows where Nanda's Alvin's girl?"
"A few days ago I met them in Paris"
"Trus?"
"As usual, Alvin still doesn't like me. It seems that the misunderstanding of the past college is still clearly attached to his brain"
"Loe was also wrong, from the first why did not you explain to the Alvin about sitting the real thing"
"Ga se simple it's Ger. Alvin is not a person who easily accepts explanations. He believes more in what he sees for himself than in reality. Even if what he saw was not entirely true. He's too arrogant"
"Hmmm... Complicated too yes temen loe"
"Udah loe real drive. Until I hang you!!!" evan Threat
"Loe was like my mother, she loved to snack"
"Eh ungodly boy, you want a good drive or I'm going down loe here!!"
"Dii-hh... Very sensitive indeed nih people" Gery can only grumble. He knew his spirit was his mind was upset about women. So this time Gery chose to shut up and continue to focus on driving until they returned to the hospital where they worked.

Nanda just finished her shower. Her towel on her head was still wrapped around her wet hair. Fresh taste can shampoo clean the scalp. The smell of fragrant and fresh also makes the mind more fresh. After putting on her casual daily clothes, as usual Nanda returned to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Alvin's coming home soon.
Nanda cooked a simple meal that he could cook. A plate of vegetables and a full side dish with rice has been prepared. Just wait for Alvin to go home, have dinner together and then resume their respective activities in their respective rooms.
Clik...
The main door opens. Alvin emerges from behind the door to enter the house. And as usual there is no trite greeting Nanda his status wife. Alvin immediately chose to go upstairs to his room. Nandapun also did not pay attention to Alvin's care. Alvin's usual stuff like that. No wonder and it doesn't feel strange.
Nanda was done serving their dinner on the table. Nanda was also already sitting in her chair preparing to eat.
Nanda's eyes were tempted to look towards her phone when the sound of her incoming call ringtone rang. An unknown new number has lined up neatly on the front screen of Nanda's phone. With hesitation, Nanda received the incoming call.
[Hello.] say Nanda.
[Hello Nanda. It's me, Evan]
[Oh, hello brother Evan.].
[Sorry that my phone has disrupted your time]
[Ah, no. What's up, brother?]
[Tomorrow at noon do you have time? I'd like to take you to lunch with me]
[Tomorrow at noon... Emm... There]
[Alright, I assume you accepted my invitation. Tomorrow I'll send you the address of the restaurant. See you tomorrow Nanda]
No time Nanda answered, Evan had turned off his phone. For a moment Nanda was stunned in sitting still holding his cellphone.
"Speak to who?" alvin's cold voice blew away Nanda's momentary daydream.
"New friend"
"Heh, new friend?" said Alvin parrotting while throwing his woeful laughter towards Nanda. Nanda doesn't bully Alvin at all. Nanda preferred to busy himself to take food and began to devour the results of his cooking into his mouth.
"Oma ngundang we dinner tomorrow night" said Alvin suddenly interrupted eating. Nanda looked at Alvin for a while then just nodded slowly and continued his eating.
The atmosphere of eating was silent for a moment. Everyone was busy with food on the plate. Finish the meal, as usual Nanda tidied up the dirty dishes and washed them in the sink. Alvin also went straight upstairs into his room.
He laid Nanda's tired body on his comfortable bed. Nanda recalls the broadcast this afternoon with doctor Evan and doctor Gery. The student duty promotion offered by two of his speakers instantly attracted his soul's desire to become one of the lucky student parts. Suddenly Nanda wanted to continue her studies that she had not had time to touch after she graduated SMU. The family's economic factors and her sickly mother's factor, which cost a lot of money, made Nanda prefer to work for money rather than spend her father's money for college. The classic reason. But that is the reality that must be chosen and that Nanda must live.
Two billion dollars given by Alvin seems to be enough to finance all his college needs. Especially if Nanda managed to get the student duty. Certainly the money that will be spent on tuition until completion will not be as much as regular students non duty students.
The shadow of the mother's sickly face makes Nanda's spirit up and round. Now he is convinced of his ultimate life purpose. Well, medical college. Nanda wanted to study medicine so that she could cure her mother's illness, the great woman of her most precious life.

Evan sent me the address of the restaurant he was referring to. Exactly at twelve noon, Evan's car was parked in the VIP parking lot of a fairly famous restaurant. With elegant steps, Evan walked into the luxurious restaurant that afternoon looked rather quiet. A beautiful waitress greeted him kindly complete with an extra sweet smile accompanied Evan to walk to the table he had previously ordered.
Before Nanda arrived, Evan ordered only a cup of coffee and a plate of sweet treats.
Five minutes later, Nanda, visibly moved to Evan's desk.
"Sorry, brother, I'm late" said Nanda while breathing. Evan replied with a light smile.
"Ga anything. I haven't been too long, let's sit down.." Nanda nodded and sat face to face with Evan's chair. With a smile, Evan thrust out a menu list to Nanda. For a while Evan and Nanda seemed busy choosing the food menu.
"What are you riding here for?" evan asked without turning his eyes to look at Nanda.
"Emmm... I took an online motorcycle taxi" replied Nanda honestly. Evan just nodded his head in understanding.
"So... What do you want to order?"
"I... Eemm... Same with the orders of my brother"
"Yakin's?"
"He-"em"
Because Nanda was confused about what to eat, so he chose to give up his food menu like Evan's choice. After all the names of the food menu in this restaurant are quite difficult and quite foreign to Nanda.
After choosing, Evan finally ordered a familiar food menu that everyone could accept. The tenderloin steak well done with smashed potatos and two glasses of orange juice Evan had ordered as their lunch menu.
"I'm glad we got to see Nanda again. And I was quite surprised to see you on xxx radio. Btw, you've been working there for a long time?"
"Emmm... Not so long ago. I was there working status part time. But I don't think it's been two years working there as a broadcaster" he replied with a smile showing off a row of teeth.
"You work part time there while you're in college?" Nanda shook her head in response to Evan's question.
"You're not in college?"
"My mom has heart disease that she has to control every week to the hospital. Because the mother had no health insurance, so any control to the hospital had to pay with personal money. The father's office covers only half of the cost of maternal care. That's if you're in the hospital. Soii.. I couldn't bear to burden my father to pay for my college. After graduating SMU, I decided to work. At first, I did not agree with my decision. But long ago I understood. I know what my father had in mind, as a man he must be ashamed of not being able to send his son to college" Nanda smiled wryly when he had unknowingly told Evan his life story.
"Oh, Brother Evan sorry I became a kebablasan vent"
"It's okay. I'm glad to hear your story"
"Son Evan himself when did he get back from Paris? Says big brother, Evan over there college plus work. Why is it in Jakarta?" again Evan chuckled softly at the innocence of Nanda's question.
"I was there working. There's a branch office I need to check. And about college, actually I was there teaching. Not as a student. But it is also only as a guest lecturer. Then meet with you, and finally get to like this. As we are now, here" Nanda laughed shyly at Evan's last words that brought up the story of their meeting.
The conversation halted when two waitresses brought food and drink trays and served them on the table. Evan invites Nanda to enjoy their lunch. Nanda gave a small nod and started to enjoy her lunch.
"You and Alvin have been dating for a long time?" without further ado, Evan immediately asked a question that almost made Nanda choke.
Nanda grabbed orange juice and drank it slowly. Nanda just nodded slowly answering Evan's question. It's not good for him to tell his problems with Alvin to Evan, a man he's not known for a long time.
"How long have you been dating?" ask Evan again.
"Not for so long" Evan nodded his head.
"Hopefully you can be patient in the face of Alvin's attitude a little hard" Nanda glanced at Evan's face. His face looked flat and expressionless. The sentence Evan just said as if Evan understood the true personality of Alvin.
"Sister has known Mas Alvin for a long time? But apparently the relationship between Evan and Mas Alvin seems less good yes"
"Yes, you're right. Alvin and I were very close. We are not just friends, but friends. Because there was one problem, Alvin got angry and cut off communication. Up until now" Nanda was speechless at Evan's explanation.
"If I may know, what problems occur that make your relationship become tenuous?'
"Later you'll also know for yourself" Evan smiled faintly giving a hanging answer.
"Oia Nanda, this is for you" Evan thrust out a large white envelope and placed it next to Nanda's plate.
"This what?"
"Open up"
With hesitation, Nanda slowly opened the contents of the envelope. It turned out to be a paper. Nanda read a row of neat writings written on the piece of paper. At once Nanda's eyes widened in disbelief at what he was reading.
"Be-bea students??" said Nanda stammered. Evan smiled sweetly while nodding slowly.
