At the Crossroads of Love

26 BOROBUDUR

Ara invited Gea to stop by her house. Ara did not want Gea to go home alone, because it was night. And finally Gea was brought home by Antok, because his papa again came out.

Ara threw herself into her soft mattress. fortunately tomorrow there is no repetition so she can sleep directly...

Eyes feel sticky.drowsiness has come attacking. But his phone that was placed on the nightstand sounded.once twice Ara silenced, his voice that continued to sound very disturbing his ears.

K.drett.....

with her eyes closed Ara grabbed her phone.after her eyes opened perfectly seen on screen turned out to be a call from Raga. Ara sat down and tidied her hair, did not forget to rub around her mouth, afraid there is saliva there. swabbed the phone screen. teryata vc connected.

📞 : really do not know when you get home.

Sorry Ara forgot . was so sleepy Ara went straight to sleep.

📞 : yes look on the face of his pillow. he..he...

Ih ...Raga Ara closed this .

📞 : uh... don't. don't dong..... Ra..... Sunday tomorrow there is the same event Om, no?

Emmm.... There is no kayaknya.Why Brother?..

📞 : want to ngajakin you to Borobudur .

Huahh... Borobudur did it there like a kindergarten only. Huahhhh

📞 : sleep again gih nguap keep doing it. I'll pick you up tomorrow.

the conversation ended and Ara fell asleep.

The Sunday on which Raga will take Ara to Borobudur has arrived. In the morning, Raga arrived at Ara's house. The previous night Ara had asked her father for permission about her going to Borobudur with Raga, and was allowed to leave too late in the afternoon.

'' Brother, aren't we leaving early in the morning? '' asked Ara who was still not willing to enjoy a relaxing day at home.

''If the bad luck is hot. That's Raga's reason.

Arapun according to the two of them bergongan down the streets that are still quiet.until on the road around the temple complex, it can be seen from the streets passed by Ara the top of the temple.Until the entrance gate Raga just pass through it. Ara who was confused opened the glass of her helmet, Brother kok nerus, that's her turn there ?'' Raga just shut up and keep pushing the bike. '' Sis... he said to Borobudur?.. This is where we go.''

Raga which from earlier was silent began to react with confusion Ara.''we see Borobudur from another angle.'' he said and increase the speed of the motor. Ara finally resigned and so quietly follow the driver carrying.

Ara more enjoy the atmosphere of the streets that the air is still fresh.sometimes shoots from Borobudur are still visible. Because it had left the main road and passed several turns, the road that passed narrowed.

Raga takes Ara to see Borobudur from another angle, instead of coming directly to the candlestick. Raga brings Ara to the setumbu.

Raga parked her bike and took Ara to the entrance counter, to buy a ticket.

Penduk setumbu when described means, puntuk which means hill, and setumbu or tumbu is the place of rice from bamboo. So Pfor setumbu is a hill that is similar to a rice place made of bamboo swing.

Because it is a hill do not ask the road that will be passed.Pastinya climb. Because it is located at an altitude of 400 m asl. and the road that must be passed to reach the top is a path with a ravine sometimes left, sometimes right, sometimes left, although it looks horrified but it has been given a barrier by the manager so safe, and the ladder saplings are tilted 45 degrees. Not shrinking Ara's steps to keep on retracing her. When tired Ara will stop and Raga who is behind will push Ara with various words excited. Likewise, when Raga is tired, Ara will pull Raga and he will walk backwards.Fortunately before entering the location Raga has bought two bottles of cold mineral water, even though the water is no longer cold.

An attempt will not betray the results. Ara and Raga have reached the summit.Efforts made to climb have been rewarded. The view is right in front of my eyes. Borobudur Temple is the largest temple in the world, the stupa-shaped building built by Mahayana Buddhists around the year 800 AD which became one of the world heritage sites looks more enchanting with the ranks of Mount Merapi and Mount Merbabu.

''Ra here.'' call Raga to approach a stone that reads the description.

Ara asked Raga about one of the sentences written ''Kak this means what...?''

''This is about an imaginary straight line connecting between the Borobudur temple and the Pawon temple. Try later we rent binoculars right or not. ''

'' great right our ancestors have been able to build temples with limited equipment, this can also straighten the location of the building, what try the benchmark... ''

Raga rubbed the top of Ara's head because she was excited to see the face of Ara who was admiring the genius of the ancestors.

'' Brother...my hair is soft because of sweat, if you add random gini so ugly, Brother....''

'' Kak know not ? ... what is the benchmark of the first person who can build the temple.''

'' Maybe the direction of the wind, people used to be still natural.

It could also be the constellation, if this is more likely Ra, almost people around the world use it as a benchmark. fishermen, farmers may also be in building the temple.''

Ara and Raga took off the fatigue by sitting on the available wooden bench. '' Sister there is a tree house... ayuk Kak to there? '' Raga, who was still tired, accepted Ara's request.

''Ra if you go up on it while eating boiled noodles delicious times yes...'' Raga gave the idea because he saw instant noodle peddlers cup shape.

''Can.... Beliin ya... '' Ara had already dared to ask spoiledly to Raga. Not to play happy Raga Ara began to spoil her. Raga ordered two noodles and two iced teas. Ara waited under the empty tree house afraid that someone would climb.

Both enjoy instant cup noodles on top of the tree house with a beautiful view.

Raga poured down for a while before returning home to recover his strength.
