Plot

Trying to become a better person, Nathan haps abandoned his previous bad habits. But this made him a joke, so Nathan couldn't hold back his emotions when one of his friends belittled Salma.

The fight this time made Nathan have to move to another school and separate from Salma. The difference is that this separation is not a story of a long-distance relationship, but a love story between the two that really ends.

Salma was angry to see Nathan who could not control his emotions, without thinking he asked to break up. Meanwhile, Nathan, who had not had time to explain anything, could not say anything other than heeding the wishes of the woman he loved.

Living life at his new school, Nathan accidentally meets a girl who has many problems. The girl is named Rebecca, who is currently in trouble with one of the popular people at school.

Unwilling to see a group of men belittle Rebecca, Nathan is determined to fight the martial arts champion.

Luckily Nathan's fight this time didn't get to the BP room, instead this made Rebecca feel sorry and guilty.

This girl is surprised, why Nathan wants to help her? Even though they had never met or known each other before. Nathan also replied that he was the same as Rebecca, only he had never thought of killing himself.

Nathan's words made Rebecca stunned, especially since that day the two of them seemed to be getting closer. This time Nathan wanted to help Rebecca and show her that he was not alone in this world. But Rebecca misunderstood Nathan's good intentions, so the man said that he could not force his love for Rebecca.

On the other hand, Salma is under the strict supervision of her father, who wants her to enter the UI medical department. In fact, her father deliberately brought Salma closer to Ridho so that the girl would not return to Nathan.

His father's pressure had taken away all his dreams. Salma even got worse when she failed to pass SNMPTN to UI. This made Salma very depressed, until she met Rebecca who opened a room for those who were depressed.

Thanks to Rebecca, Salma can slowly release her emotions when she feels insecure and loses herself. Thanks to Rebecca too, Salma was finally reunited with her ex-boyfriend, Nathan.

Unfortunately, Ridho's presence and the absence of his father's blessing made Nathan and Salma's relationship impossible. Nathan even got arrested at the police station, because he was accused of kidnapping Salma who actually ran away from home.^[1]
