June 2 is my birthday with Mas Arya. For 3 years we have been in love with the condition of LDR an (Long Distance Relationship)
As long as he was educated only a few times I could meet him while he was on a long cruise.
It could be 2 months I've only been able to meet her. And once a month I can only talk through a video call with her even through my mother's phone or Myrna. because the schedule of his family who visit there once a month then the opportunity I use the best. I can imagine how much I miss it. Sometimes I envy my friends who can every day meet with his girlfriend.
Today the schedule of Mother and Papi visit again to her educational place. As usual, Mommy will send me a message for the station at the hour we agreed.
" Dear Assalamualaikum" her greeting softly. I saw my girlfriend's face on my phone screen.
" Waalaikum salam mas, how are you?"
" My news is good. Happy 3 year anniversary dear. Smga in the 4th year of our anniversary next year I have proposed to you" he said firmly and able to make my tongue mute to answer. My heart is so flowering - flowers hear it.
" Happy Anniversary too mas, I love you "my answer is as limited as I can say it.
" So sweet. hopefully lasting until the wedding yes dear" suddenly the face of the mother nongol on my phone screen.
" Aamiin. thank you mother" I replied embarrassedly.
Then we were allowed to continue our missed conversation by Mother.
When talking to him it does not feel enough time 1 hour provided. I feel like I want to speed up the time loop so I can be with her soon. But that is very unlikely to happen.
I never put a sad face in front of her. Because I don't want to make him worry about my situation. Although I would like to say I need his presence at all times.
Maybe I was so selfish thinking about my own feelings that she wanted the same thing.
Usually after finishing the video call I will cry sobbing holding my miss.
If we wait for something a distance of 1 year is a very long count. Even 1 second feels like 1 year.
But I will wait until that day comes.
---------------------------------
That morning my campus atmosphere was a little excited because there was preparation for a charity concert to raise funds for flood victims in one of the villages in my city.
Each faculty is obliged to contribute his work to the event later tonight. And my faculty called me to sing. First I refused because I was ashamed. Even though back in High School I was famous for being very brave. But I don't trust myself when it comes to pulling votes.
My friends keep forcing me. Because I was also the Head of the Department in the class with the greatest force I was forced to accept my classmate's agreement.
I chose a song that I remember and became my favorite song.
And the moment I started getting on stage, the stage fright started to hit me.
Damn it the audience has started cheering want me to sing soon.
I approached the band members who were preparing to accompany my song.
I was surprised not to think that Brother Zul was sitting sweetly holding a guitar.
Hmmmm...
I never knew he was a band player at this college.
" Your Andrea want to sing what song? " ask that shady-eyed guy.
" Kangen the God! " My mouth was a little loud because of the noisy sound of the audience's screams mixed with the sound of music being stel.
" Okay hapal huh? " ask her again.
I'm nodding. A moment later, I was swept away to perform a song that belonged to God.
Refs :
*Percaya lah pada ku aku pun rindu kamu
I'm going home..
to let go of all the hidden longings
Just keep that sad you
I'm gonna come...
Kak Zul's guitar is very lively. I shadow the face of my lover who is studying in the crater of Candra in advance.
So fond of her did not feel my tears melted.
A thunderous applause filled my voice.
Again !!
Again !!
Shouted from under the stage. Brother Zul gave me the code to sing the song again.he offered me a duet with him.
I nodded in agreement enough to give me strength in an unsuspicious manner.
He chose his songs Ari*** and BCL :
**Please when we talk to each other
About the torturous feeling
About the passionate miss
About an undisclosed love
We have been silent for too long
Drowning in unmoved anxiety
Fulfilling our night dream
Duhai my dear
My love
Let go
Your feelings miss you all your love
And now it's just me and you
Moment in abdication**.
It turns out that our voices can hypnotize the audience so that they join the choir singing this song until it is finished.
I immediately got off the stage and was greeted with the satisfied applause of the audience.
My friends instantly broke me down and some girlfriends embraced me proudly.
" Well you're a new Idol talent! Sing again dong " shouted Nastiti while stepping over.
" Eh so good.my honorarium is expensive tau! " My joke and in reply with a pinch on my cheek.
It turned out that the fundraising this time was very successful because the committee had invited a guest star of the campus band next door who was on the rise.
Back at the show that night, Kak Zul offered me to go home with him. Because it's late at night at 23:00 wib. Papah who called me earlier, called me back again.
"Dre, what time are you home? Axel Papah tell me to pick you up?" ask him to worry.
" I'm sorry, but the show's just over. This is Andrea preparing to go home. don't have to pick up Pah, later Dre road his same rame-rame friend. Poor Axel must be sleepy "I replied
" Are you sure you dare to go home by yourself, son?"
Suddenly Satria and Zulfikar were near me.
"Dre, together we are Yuk, the motor just stay on campus safe, the origin of the double key. Zul take a car. Have pity on you last night" Invite Satria. No matter how it is, 2 men even though I know them well but there is a feeling of boredom as well
