Maudy, Maudy, Maudy ..., a name that always haunts Aditya's life today. Even with just hearing his name alone his heart rumbled, like a dam of dark clouds ready to rain down, and clashing against each other .
All the things about the woman are always imagined, her smile, has crept deep into the memory, increasingly entangling her with memories that occur repeatedly. This love is so sincere and so deep.
Aditya did not respond to his sister's remarks, immediately turning to something else, so that the conversation about Maudy did not continue, because, otherwise, there would be a storm that ravaged his heart.
"eemmm, thank God, full. Oh yes the food is very steady, mengalahin restaurants - 5-star restaurants" he praised Selly while giving a thumbs up.
"Hmmm, I love talking. By the way, Selly admitted to Selly emang lazzziiieeezzz" while lifting his chin and patting him on the shoulder with pride.
After chatting and joking with her sister, Aditya goes to the coffee art competition registration building near the city park, to enroll in the race. When Aditya will write his name on the candidate registration form, he feels a little inferior. See a lot of baristas who have signed up, and some of them, known by aditya are very good at coffee art.
Aditya fights his fear, then registers himself as a participant. After he wrote the name, he was also asked to fill out a self-dataing form, also asked to pay the registration fee in accordance with the nominal stated in the brochure. After waiting for some time, administrative problems were resolved and Aditya officially became a candidate for the race.
Actually in his heart, he felt very nervous, because aditya was not used to painting on coffee, especially in his shop also did not provide a menu for it so he felt awkward, awkward, although the technique - the technique had been learned but it had been very long. Aditya really followed this race with reckless capital.
He knew, if only with reckless capital he would not get to victory. He must accompany his ambition with effort and prayer in order to arrive at victory.
"Ok, Aditya, you can!" he said while clenching his hands.
Aditya returned to the shop riding his old CBS motorcycle, on the way he continued to think about the steps he had to do, recalling the techniques in pouring art on coffee, and how to do it, given the race time is not long. Arriving at the Aditya store works as usual, serving the customers in a friendly manner.
"Where are you, so the list of events this morning?" Rendy asked, while grinding the coffee beans.
"So bro" replied Aditya.
"Excited yes, I believe you can definitely win the event" said Rendi while holding Aditya's shoulder.
The time has shown at 22:00 WIB, it is time to close the store. Rendy and Aditya start cleaning the entire room to the sidelines, even though they are men, but they are the cleaning type.
"Bro, your salary has been transferred. Don't be kapok - kapok help me here" Aditya told Rendy
"Alhamdulillah, thanks bro, will not ..., there are you who are kapok, I owe mulu, hahahahaha" replied Rendy.
"Haha, bro you go home first yes, the rest let me settle" said Aditya.
"OK, it's time for practice" he murmured inwardly.
When Aditya was about to try to make coffee art, he just realized, in the store there is no milk jug the most important thing. If when painting someone needs a brush to paint on canvas, then the barista needs a milk jug to paint on coffee. Aditya did not give up and tried to replace the milk jug with an iron glass in the store.
The first attempt failed, because Aditya's hands were still stiff. The second experiment, the third, was still not successful, he still tried and did not give up. Finally, in the 7th experiment Aditya was able to paint a simple heart shape over the coffee. He is very happy, his hard work tonight is fruitful, although he is not satisfied with it.
On the following days, Aditya continued to train tirelessly. He continued to learn techniques he had not yet learned. Quickly Aditya's hands began to shrewdly make art on top of Coffe, in addition to the fact that he was already an art talent, Aditya also studied and practiced really - really, true the saying, said, results never betray the process.

The day that awaited - wait, finally arrived too, the Coffea Art race, Aditya confidently came to the location where the race. The location of the race was held in an open place, but it looks very majestic, all neatly arranged and very crowded. Not only the participants of the competition were present, the audience was also present, to enliven the race and enjoy various types of coffee from various countries, ranging from local to non-local, local, this is truly a golden opportunity for coffee lovers.
The committee announced the race will begin soon, the participants of the race are asked to immediately register themselves to the registration table and prepare in front of the bar counter each. Hearing the direction of the committee, Aditya immediately registered himself and walked towards the counter bar.
Before arriving at the bar counter of the participants, Aditya did not bother to catch a breath with Maudy and Diana. Maudy was really beautiful that day, with a long black dress patterned with polka-dot, and her hair was beautifully arranged to turn Aditya's eyes to him. But this time he was really cold, as if he did not care and had managed to forget Aditya.
The race began, all participants were given 20 minutes to prepare for their coffee art. Not only the art contained above it is a judgment, but the taste also has a plus. So they have to properly make it with the right correlation.
Aditya is very nervous, plus his mind becomes chaotic, after his meeting with Maudy. But he did not want the effort and hard work some time was wasted, then Aditya again tried to focus his focus and start the step by step he had learned.
From a distance, silent Maudy looked at the direction of Aditya, while eating a glass of coffee in his hand. Aditya was very serious, this face that always managed to make Maudy fall in love.*teeeeett*Maudy was surprised, almost maudy was swept away in the delusion about aditya, he said, fortunately the siren sounds just in time before the delusion sails too far and re-fulfills his mind.
The siren sounds, a sign that time is up. Participants were asked to remain standing at the bar counter respectively, waiting for the presence of a jury to conduct an appraiser. The jury was very interested in the images painted by Aditya, had a high artistic value, and the taste of good coffee balanced the quality of art above.
The jury has assessed all the work of the participants, all participants have their own uniqueness, so that the jury has little trouble determining the winner. After a long time, the judges have now determined the names of the winners. Aditya one of the winners of this event competition, he got the second rank and was entitled to take home a prize of 15 jt rupiah. Aditya is very happy, he feels his efforts have not been in vain.
Maudy was delighted to hear that Aditya won the event. Then he invited his best friend to find Aditya, just to say congratulations. But how devastated Maudy was, when she was about to approach Aditya she saw there was a woman who first came to Aditya, the woman also hugged Aditya tightly. Then, Maudy remembered the figure of the woman she had seen with Aditya a few days ago in the tavern, and she realized that she was the same person she had seen in the tavern yesterday.
Duaarr, it feels like a lightning strike. Seeing a loved one smiling happily with another woman, this was a reality more bitter than ever.
"If you don't love me, I'll keep trying to take your place in your heart. But if your heart loves another, then it's a sign there's no place for me, I'm backing out ...."
