A Cold Frozen Hearts
Eps. 5 Meet with You
Outside of the rain! Nayla was still staring at her laptop with a million questions on what to write! Several times he typed, several times even then he deleted his typing!
He doesn't know what to write to start his latest script! It felt bland, when he wrote a romantic script!
“I took a lot of time to write this script,” Nayla said when she met with the Editor some time ago!
“Oke. 3 months how?”
“6months. I need 6months,” said Nayla.
“OK. Agree,” said the Editor.
***
The atmosphere of the campus is as crowded as ever!
“Nayla,” call Laura while carrying snacks.
“La.... Um. If the romantic genre is in one with Thiller or crime. Good characters Players work as what?”
“Emang do what the hell, it's like that. Weirdo!”
“People, answer dong! Don't ask questions like that,”
“The call is detective, or police. Or Gangster gangster,”
“Em. That's yaaa... Okay. Thank you! I go first, thank you,” Nayla said as she left Laura.

Border Areas...
The soldiers of the country are training, some are running, some are shooting practice. So many of their training activities. But it was raining. Someone was watching them, he was Rasya.
A report came in, to be given to the captain. His eyes were watching the files!
“Isn't she the girl?”
Rasya just fell silent.
“You didn't tell me about your job when you met him?”
The man was silent again!
“You didn't tell him yes,”
“How can I tell him, whereas I..”.
“You like it?”
“No, but I don't feel afraid of being close to him,”
“Terus..”.
“Maybe because I met him already like that. Actually, I want to use it, to cure my disease,” Rasya said.
“Moreover my wedding in a moment,” Rasya said.
“But..”.
“I know,” Rasya said while glaring far ahead. “But, I also can't keep away from him when my marriage with him is near, I have to treat this disease,”
“What if something happens. What if you really..”.
“No. I can't possibly like another woman besides her.”.

A plane is landing at an airport. A girl and some other people were busy with their stuff! They were volunteers who came to help at the border. For Nayla to come to volunteer was part of writing her script by getting references.
Several cars came to pick up the volunteers!
The border is the most guarded place because there is conflict. So many people were injured.
Along the way all that is visible is the forest, the ocean, and the natural atmosphere is very beautiful! Several times Nayla took photos of the area.
A Kam was in front of them. There are several tents, several houses, as well as medical facilities.
Nayla lowered her things, some people walked towards them. Nayla's eyes were fixed on the person she knew, Nayla was just silent to see that. In fact, the man who said he had state affairs was at the Border!
The man—Rasya saw Nayla as if she did not know Nayla.
Nayla tidied up her clothes in the tent.
“Nayla..” Calling someone made Nayla surprised to see that.
“Aufal,” Nayla was surprised to see Aufal at the Border. “How are you here?” ask Nayla.
“Yes like that,” says Nayla.
Aufal Akrai is Nayla's ex-boyfriend 3th ago. She was married, it was Nayla who knew it and it was her relationship with Aufal that ended.
Rasya sees Nayla talking to a man, making him stop his intention to meet Nayla.
A few days ago, before Nayla left!
“Nayla. Are you serious? You're just kidding, right?”
“I'm not kidding, I'm serious!”
“But..”.
“I know... I just went to calm my mind by volunteering there. All this time, I just focused on my lecture, now I have to focus on refreshing my brain,” said Nayla while reassuring her best friend.
“I'll come there,” says Laura.
“Ti..”
“I'll keep coming,” said Laura cut off Nayla's words.

“So the urgent thing you mean is guarding the border?” said Nayla approaching someone who was standing on the beach. “Captain Raysa,” says Nayla again.
“Em. I should have told you about..”
“No need, I already knew when you helped get my bag. Even your clothes back then were gunpowder. I assumed it smelled gunpowder because you were a cop. But, the police did not have a strong smell of gunpowder. Unlike soldiers who practice with bombs and shooting drills,”, Nayla said.
“This natural atmosphere is still very awake. So many tourists from abroad come here. Although this is a border region, they want to try out the natural beauty here,”
“As a hostage some time ago right?”
“Yes. Indonesia is known for its natural beauty and abundant produce, does not rule out the possibility for them to come to see the nature of Indonesia,”
“Eem. Is the network here ugly?”
“Ia, because this network border region is quite ugly. Internet access can not be done except to go to a hotel near here or to the city,”
“I have to contact my friend,” said Nayla.
“You can not use Smartphone here, you can only use ordinary Mobile phones,” Rasya said.
“Who was the man who spoke to you earlier?” ask Rasya.
“Oh. He's Aufal, medical officer,”
“You know him?”
“Em. Very familiar with him,” said Nayla. “She's my ex-boyfriend,” said Nayla again made Rasya surprised.
“Former girlfriendr?”
“Iya Former Girlfriend,” says Nayla. “She was married 3th ago. I don't know if he's here to be a medical leased. We met a month ago at a school reunion,”, Nayla said. “Ah! Sorry, I'm so confiding in you,"
“Peace, unlike in the city is so noisy with the sound of vehicles and the smoke of vehicles roaming and also factory smoke,” said Nayla while breathing fresh air.
“Yaa like this here. Buy your own groceries, cook your own food, hunt, and there's still a lot of things that are traditionally done here,"
“Because of that, I chose to come here,”
“In addition to your profile as a Volunteer, I was given a document why you are here,”
“Hhmm... I came here to get to know more closely the lives of the soldiers here. I can't write if I don't look through the viewpoint of one society only,” Nayla said.
“So yes. Worth it, you're afraid of losing your laptop because you don't want the script inside missing,”
“Actually, I want to ask for your help during my time here,”
“Help?”
“I'm required to write a romantic novel,” said Nayla stammeringly.
“Just sue them,” Rasya said.
“I can't. After all, maybe those who read my novel are a bit bored with the genre I write,” Nayla said.
“Because of that... Be my girlfriend..”.
The deg!
