Ceafi & Dusk

Ceafi & Dusk
The Heart of Rino



In this long chair tonight with the wind and the moon I tell you about a beautiful girl from across the continent.


Claricksa Joshington


Well, that's her name. Such a graceful name was as graceful as his face. Her clear blue eyeballs like the morning sky and her trademark blond hair all the more fascinated me. A sweet smile and a soft word made me melt.


First I saw him at the end alone. Highlight his eyes saw the atmosphere of twilight, I thought he was a lover of twilight. Twice I saw him sitting enjoying the twilight at the end of the village. I wanted to say hello but I was hesitant and embarrassed.


I'm trying to figure out who he is, I asked Mr. Slamet he's my uncle who works at the bule girl's house. My uncle said she was very kind, friendly, gentle, and certainly beautiful.


The first time I met him when he accidentally hit me in the market, for a moment he looked at me, although I understood he was nervous to see me but I tried to pretend I didn't know him. I wonder if he also noticed me at that moment.


The second time I met directly to his house, because my uncle, Mr. Slamet asked me to deliver a tent for him. I was invited to shake hands with him, deg! deg! deg! My heart beats a hundred times more than usual. She looked at me too but I hesitated to look back. I've never met this woman.


And the third time I dared to talk to him while he was cycling in the afternoon.


" Hey, Miss Ceafi! What do? " Sapaku when approaching Ceafi.


" Hey.well hi Mas Rino, hmn. And yuu? " the answer.


" Oh I want to go to the water source, want to check about the water at home, "I replied back.


" Source of water? " Ceafi was a little confused.


" That's Non means springs for water needs at home, want to come see maybe? " I have a little doubt.


" really? Of course I would, "Ceafi turned so enthusiastic, he sidestepped his bike and walked around me.


" Hmn.yah about 5 years but I do not have a professional degree because I have to study doctoral first. My father said here there is a good university for doctoral studies. " Ceafi is obviously at length.


" Ah Yes Non, in Jogja there is a good campus. We arrived, this is the spring. Not so big but he never receded despite Non's dry season, "I stopped at the edge of the small river that was the spring.


Ceafi was very happy to see it, he was sitting on the right rock next to the dam. I sat down beside him.


" This is what flows into some homes. What is Europe like? " I looked at him and I saw Ceafi's face was embarrassed.


" Hmn, there's a government service. For the source as far as I know from groundwater which is usually later processed distilled. Here it is very natural well, from direct source without filter process. " Ceafi's thin smile fascinates me, why are you so perfect Miss Bule.


" Oh yes, Non! Oops sorry excuse me, "I reflex stroked Ceafi's hair when there were leaves attached to his head. Ceafi was so shocked and nervous that she accidentally held my hand slightly trembling.


" Sorry Non no leaves on Non's head, "I bow apologizing.


" Yes, fine thank you! " Ceafi is salting.


After finishing confirming the water channel, we immediately returned to the village. On the road Ceafi and I told each other about our work and then separated after arriving at the original place.


" Be careful, Non! " I said when Ceafi was about to leave.


" Call me Ceafi, well Mas Rino. Thank you for taking me. " Ceafi nodded and smiled sweetly making me the one who changed the wrong behavior.


",Ah nggih, uh yes Non, hmn means Ceafi. " My words are clearly groggy.


And Ceafi sat his bike away to get back home. Is it possible that I can approach him? I feel far from worthy. Let dusk help answer.
