"Assynoltom..." Suddenly the door opened and 8-year-old Sheirna Tanu's son greeted.
"Wa'alaikumsalam." Reply Tanu and Niken together.
"Hi beautiful aunt Niken. It's been treated, huh?" Sheirna asked Sun hand to Niken.
Niken smiled, "smart boy. It's dong." Niken answered while throwing a smile at Sheirna.
"Where's the ice cream from?" Tanu asked his daughter.
"Missed by Hans. Sheirna met Hans. Keep buying ice cream at the next supermarket. Same buyin Sheirna doll barbie. Beautiful, mah. Oh yes, I told you the same thing about Hans. That last week I was with my mom and dad taking a trip to Yogya. Hans continued to say, he said that later we go to Yogya again, om Hans peg invited. Yes I told you aza kayak gini, if om Hans peg come along. Hans has to get married to the Honeymoon. Like when mommy was with papa." Babe Sheirna. Niken and Tanu laughed at the babble of an 8-year-old. Niken was so happy to see the adorable and agile Sheirna. Niken likes children, he also often gives toys or food for Sheirna.
"Say you not the same as Hans?" Ask Tanu.
"Udah. Mom likes to say, if anyone loves us food or goods. We have to say thank you." Answer Sheirna.
"Bright little mama's boy." Puji Tanu's.
"Miss if I say yes. Auntie's coming home, baby." Said Niken.
"Tante, would you like to know Hans?" Sheirna pulls up Niken's skirt. Niken smile. "He's not getting a soul mate yet." Further. Niken chuckles again.
"Can." Said Niken while bowing her body. Niken had no idea who Hans was referring to. Niken thought Hans' name was a lot and a market.
"Well phone om Hans dong, he said om Hans looking for a mate with Sheirna." Sheirna.
"Lho emang Sheirna already has a candidate for om Hans?" Ask Tanu. Sheirna nodded her head confidently. "Who?"
"Tante Niken." The answer. Niken nodded at hearing that. Then he smiled. Niken squatting aligns herself with Sheirna.
"Emang om Hans Sheirna kayak how the hell is he? Aunt Niken is curious." Tukas Niken's.
"Om I'm really handsome. She's also nice, loves ice cream and Sheirna. Hans is funny too. So, Sheirna wants a beautiful Auntie Niken mate. Same with the handsome Hans. Let it be later if you have a baby, the baby is beautiful or handsome. Sheirna will be guarded." Sheirna said with her funny style. Niken laughed lightly at all of her son Tanu's words.
"Well, video call by Hans dong. Let aunt Niken acquaintance." Sheirna.
"Yahhh mama quota is over darling. Not yet mama fill. It will be later." Reply Tanu.
"Uhmmm his picture aza used to be mah. Let aunt Niken see." His word. Tanu gave his cell phone to his son. Then Sheirna showed me a picture of Hans.
"It's aunt. This is a picture of me." As soon as Niken saw the photo that Sheirna meant. Niken was surprised.
"Hans?" It turned out that the Hans whom Sheirna was referring to was the same person he had told Tanu.
"Yes he's Hans, my friend." Tanu.
"He's also the man I meant earlier, miss Tanu." Reply Niken.
"really?" Tanu pretended to be surprised when in fact he already knew. Niken nodded his head.
"You're not gonna break my secret, are you?" Said Niken. Tanu smiled.
"Of course not. Take it easy your secret's safe." Reply Tanu.
"Dahh Sheirna."
"Bye bye..."

Hans sees Niken getting into a taxi. He breathed his breath.
"Do you remember the woman I told you about yesterday?" Hans started a conversation. Tanu nodded.
"Yes of course. You're dying to meet her." Hans nodded.
"Wait, Niken, Niken who do you mean?" Ask Tanu.
"Niken Khana." Hans answered short.
"Really?" Tanu raised both of his eyebrows in disbelief. Hans nodded. "He's my patient. He just got into the therapy room." Tanu
"Yes, I met Niken again in Seoul. And when I saw his identity, I deliberately moved an apartment and applied for a job where he worked. I purposely did it just for him." Hans was frank.
"And because of her you're a playboy too?" Investigate Tanu.
"Ahk long story Tanu, but you should know that Niken is different from other women, Tanu. He's that special. Back when I approached him, he was different from the others. Then somehow the more I forget about it, the more I miss it. And there's something I really want to know about Niken." Hans.
"What's that?" Ask Tanu.
"Something really intrigued me. In the past, I accidentally heard the conversation of his best friend that Niken is a philophobic. When I found out in the article. And that leads to the trauma he experienced first. Surprisingly when he was with me he never felt afraid. And you know, her personality always confused me. Sometimes he gets angry, sometimes he just shuts up. And I don't know why he's been avoiding me lately." Hans.
"So that's why you followed Niken to my consulting firm." Reply Tanu. Hans nodded his head.
"And you know, Tanu. I want to know the real state of Niken. Especially about his hobby." Hans.
"Hans, you know I don't have my own code of conduct. So, I can't help you." Tanu.
"Oh come on Tanu. You can't divulge a little bit about Niken's condition to me. Take it easy, I can keep his secret koq." Hans tried to persuade.
"I'm so sorry Hans."
"Okey, tell me this. You don't have to say anything about Niken's condition. All you need to explain is philophobia. That's all." Hans. Tanu smiled at Hans's almost giving up sentence.
"You really love her?" Investigate Tanu. Hans nodded.
"Very." Said. His look was very convincing. Just this time, Tanu saw Hans' earnestness.
"You promised you'd always be around Niken, no matter what I told you." Tanu. Hans nodded with certainty.
"Listen, Niken is my patient and a philophobic. His emotional diaphragm is always going up and down. I'm sorry I couldn't help much. Because, you know for yourself. There is a code of conduct that I must keep. Telling patient data is like exposing your own disgrace." Tanu.
Hans took a breath, bowed his head. In vain he went to Tanu's office. He found nothing.
"What about Niken now?" Ask Hans.
"The emotional frequency is pretty good. Niken still has to be therapeutic a lot of things. And he still does not believe about love and the existence of love. Niken still thinks all men are just as bastards. In the context of his mind is still centered on the past. Hatred, resentment, and trauma coiled right into the center of his brain. So that there is no gap for him to share in the happiness of the past, present or dream of a beautiful future." Tanu is clearly his personal psychologist.
"What can I do for him?" Hans bowed his head with both hands held close to his nose.
"Ask her feelings. And convey your feelings to him. It will affect Niken's psychic condition. And open up other spaces, which might be painful but that's the recovery period. Where he must forgive, make peace, love, and be happy." Tanu.
"You know Tanu, I'm very lucky to have a friend like you. Beautiful, smart and smart. You're the best psychologist I've ever met." Praise Hans.
"That's because you don't know any other psychologist besides me." Reply Tanu. Hans laughing.
"But you really are beautiful Tanu." Praise Hans.
"You complimenting me? Because there's a want, right?" Investigate Tanu.
"I can't lie to you."
"Let's know for yourself. What made Niken feel traumatized. It's not hard, nor is it easy." Tanu.
"Ahhh well."
"Ohya, are you happy today?" Ask Tanu. Hans scrunched his forehead. "Ask that to Niken every day? And don't forget, you should be happy too." Connect Tanu. Hans smiled. Is correct. Tanu's right. The most important thing in life is happiness. Is happiness always within us?
