I'll Definitely Go Home

Tickets already, suitcases already, waist bags already, farewell to friends one hostel already. Afkar looked around his room, a room he had lived in for almost 2 years. Goodbye my hostel, hopefully your new occupants will treat you well. Afkar put on his white sneakers, rolled the shirt up almost to the elbow as Alya once taught, mirrored for a bit and let his hair a few strands fall into his thick eyebrows.

Actually the flight was still a long time, but because he used an online taxi, he could not estimate how many minutes he was already at the airport. Put 2 small loaves of bread into his waist bag for breakfast in a taxi later. The journey to the airport takes 20 minutes.

Opened the door to the room, and already stood a petite girl wearing a black vertical white striped shirt, long jeans and a pink sling bag.

"Alyaa"

Alya just smiled

" Go to Al"

Alya slowly enters Afkar's empty room, the small cabinets Afkar has shared with his boarding friends.

" What time is the plane?"

" There's 2 hours to go Al"

" who are you going to the airport with?"

" Himself"

" Can Alya take you?"

Afkar nodded" I'm glad that you can accompany me Al, I'll have a taxi first"

Afkar started ordering taxis online on his mobile phone

" in 5 minutes the taxi's coming"

Alya could only keep quiet without being able to say anything, Afkar too.

Afkar suddenly grabbed Alya's fingers

" I'm sorry Al"

" Alya's the one who's sorry"

Though both do not know what to apologize for, with apologies it seems sick and sad this has been much reduced.

" The taxi's ahead, we're Al's road".

Alya walked followed Afkar behind him while pushing his suitcase.

.In the taxi the silent action was still continuing, really Alya was not angry, he was just confused what to say, and Afkar chose to be silent because he did not dare to talk if it would make Alya sulk again, he was confused, this is already very good Alya came to him and would accompany him to take him to the airport.

" Yes, when you get word"

" Yes Al, I must have heard"

" Kaka can chat Alya, can nelf Alya anytime".

huuh the question was last night, only answered now, if answered yesterday would there be no such pain. Afkar again grabbed Alya's fingers and this time did not want him to let go, eager to bring the fingers into his arms so that he felt comfortable leaving Alya. But what right did she have to ask Alya, Alya is not who she is. Alya also felt the warmth from Afkar's fingers, how much he wanted to return the hand and said I would wait ka, wait what Al? Afkar didn't even say anything.

20 Minutes later they arrived and sat in the waiting room. Afkar never for a second released Alya's hand from his fingers.

" Al, we sit here first yes, there's still time"

" Ka, if you're already working there, you still want to see Alya here?"

" I promise Al, I'll come here, but I don't know when, I'll be sure to tell you"

" Yes,,"

" Yes Al,,??"

Alya shook her head "not so"

Alya nodded

" And one more thing, give my thanks to Yanti. Thank you for introducing me to a woman like you".

Alya blushed.

"good college, Al, om and aunty dear to you, he certainly expects you to succeed"

" Can we take a selfie?"

Afkar nodded, Alya grabbed the phone inside her sling bag and opened the camera app. Afkar brought his face closer to Alya's face, Alya immediately misbehaved, but pretended to be ignorant. By taking the front camera, highlighted the faces of both of them. Enough with 5 photos with different foses. Alya and Afkar saw the photo from Alya's camera

" It fits Al"

" Yes"

They were both shocked and blushed at each other

" Send to my wa ya Al"

Afkar immediately switched the conversation

" Our first photo is yes"

" May the other two selfie photos come soon, Al" Afkar chuckled

" Yes, if kaka comes again" said Alya while entering his cellphone.

" Al, I have bread, we eat here yu" Alya grabbed the bread Afkar offered

" Thank you"

" Al, you haven't said sorry"

" Alya sorry, if I'm sorry Alya already sorry qa?"

" For you stock sorry I'm endless, if you want to run out, printed again'

" Gaha".

There was a sound call for passengers of aircraft majoring Surabaya. Afkar stood up and pulled Alya's body from his seat "Al, I say goodbye, take good care of yourself, I must have come home Al to see you again"

Suddenly Alya's tears fell without being invited, Alya could no longer speak. Afkar pulled the tiny body into his arms and whispered in his ear

" I'll always tell you Al, and I promise to go home, don't cry anymore, I'm sad too".

Afkar let go of his embrace and brought Alya's fingers to his lips, gently tucked the finger and put it back in position. Afkar picked up his suitcase and waist bag, walking away from Alya. Alya did not let go of his gaze until Afkar was far away, Afkar waved his hand looking his lips moved saying something, but Alya could not understand what Afkar said, Alya could only wave his hand. Afkar was completely lost from his sight, Alya again sat in his chair originally, his legs and hands were very weak. Until the last moment Afkar did not say anything, there was no love sentence, no plea to wait, no prohibition to walk with anyone. Alya looked at her finger that had just been on Afkar's kiss, what does this mean? You should know how expensive the price of certainty, especially for creatures called women. Not just bombarding me with your smile and gaze that makes me weak, I need words to be able to make sure I have to hang on or leave.

Is there a way out besides waiting?

In the plane

You cried?

I saw your love Alya, I found your honest feelings. Believe me, I went to change the course of my life.

You've been perfect since you were born

Family, livelihood, friends.

If I chain your heart, you are constrained to go out, maybe even you lost your unique world at a too young age. I don't want to hurt you by saying I love you. In fact, I would much rather have you, give you the love you deserve, but not now. I have to succeed, I have to make you much happier and more comfortable than you are. Wait for me with the new me. If you were for me, you could definitely wait. And if you find someone who makes you more comfortable, you don't have to feel guilty about leaving me because I didn't ask you to wait. I just want, by the time I come back to you, I'm much better and will connect your already very good life to even better. You still look at me when I say I love you, you won't be able to read it because we were so far away. I'm just going to slowly tell you about my heart, through this distant relationship, slowly, which gives me a sign of affection every day and it starts now. Distance is not an excuse to separate, it's just for a moment

We're just gonna need some time

Staring at the face of the phone that Alya just sent. I love you Al, I'm going home, proposing to you.
