He thought that Dewi tried to find the other boy. And he wanted to beat up Putra. Dewi was so afraid at that time; she didn’t want her boyfriend misunderstanding because of the small problem. Then, Dewi told him what the exactly this problem and wanted to clear it. Dewa understood about it, and he was so angry at that time, because at fist his eyes were closed by emotion.
The serious problem which had tried to break their relationship is when Dewi wanted to introduce Dewa in her family. Dewi’s father disagreed about their relationship. The reason is because her father wanted Dewi to focus on his study. At that time, Dewi was going to get final examination.
