In 1990, Milea, her sister Airin, and their parents move from Jakarta to Bandung. Her father is an Army officer. On her way to the school, he met Dilan, a bad boy and motorbike gang leader who confidently says she will sit on his bike and he will be her boyfriend. Dilan started to seduce her by coming to her house, calling to her house from a payphone, and sending her odd but romantic gifts which includes a pre-filled crossword puzzle book; "so you don’t have to think about the answers". On the other hand, Milea already has a boyfriend named Benni back in Jakarta. However, she is no longer feels comfortable with him since he is rude and foul-mouthed. Despite Dilan's frequent overconfident movements, which initially made Nandan – her close friend who is in love with her – uncomfortable, Milea starts to develop feelings for him.

During a visit to TVRI in Jakarta as quiz contestants, Milea and Nandan, who are left for a while by their friend, encountered Benni, who ferociously beat the hell out of him as Benni thinks Nandan will snatch his girlfriend. Amid the heated situation, Benni accuses Milea as a coquettish girl. She dumps Benni, for which he calls Milea a whore. Despite his effort to apologize, she rejects to his proposal to become couple again. Once again, Benni calls her devil and whore. Dilan and Milea get closer and closer, despite no love declaration has been made. They ride his motorbike to go home, occasionally hold hands, and phone to each other in the night.
