Fire Sun

Just Dreams

No need for extra explanation, Adit can catch the timid smile that Gesna presents. I don't know. Gesna change was increasingly making Adit believe that people's feelings are unpredictable. The hope that he thought was just wishful thinking, was getting more and more focused on reality. 

Tonight, Gesna uttered 'thank you' and 'be careful'. For some it's nothing special, but for Adit who's used to facing Gesna's insistent attitude, being said 'thank you' is like winning a jackpot on a Timezone game machine. 

Rarities.

He opened the glass and shouted happily in the middle of the cars that were still crowded at eleven o'clock at night. Let someone say he's crazy. Gesna has driven him crazy. This alone, Adit's face did not stop smiling. Geez, that was her village.

So this is how it feels to be in tatters?

From the very beginning of approaching Gesna, he knew that the girl would reject him. From messages that have never been answered and ways of talking that there is no sweetness, it has shown that the girl is not welcome with Adit. Indeed, then Adit hoped Gesna could see his sincerity, and when the stone that was dripping water began to crack, Adit felt his hard work began to show results. Adit is sure, Gesna is getting used to it and starts to open up to her presence. Although not a perfect result, although not in accordance with the wishes, at least there is movement. Movement indicates a reaction.

In life, Adit knows that everything cannot be obtained easily. If you want good grades, learn. Being healthy means you have to exercise. He wants to play guitar, of course he has to practice. So also to get Gesna's heart, Adit believes he can if he tries hard.

He called out again while clenching his hands. It was as if he had got a second cup on the same day. Crazy, he's lucky. Moreover, his encounter was closed with a sweet and sincere smile from Gesna. Complete is beautiful today.

Torn in the presence of no conflict means, wet pants because spilled drinks are not a problem, gossiped people are also meaningless, Adit even forgot the acceptance because Gesna quite cares about Thunder shrimp matter. 

The smile was still growing when Adit got home. As powerful as this Gesna effect for him. He then told Gesna when he got home.

Mr. A: I'm at home

Gesna didn't read the message, probably already asleep.

Mr. A: Did you sleep?

Mr. A: Good news, sweetheart. 🤗

Adit himself was not sleepy. Tired there, but eyes are still flashing. Gesna is like dopamine, a little change can make Adit happy, happy and even euphoric. Singing small while opening his shoes, Adit began to think of immortalizing today. 

Yes, immortalized. It could be if he sleeps later when he wakes up to find all just a dream. Adit nodded, he had to shower, change clothes and improve appearance no matter what overnight, at this moment. He wanted to record a song for Gesna.

The next minutes, after bathing, Adit was busy arranging the room to make it more aesthetic. Table lamps are placed next to a small sofa, composing the original scattered books to make it neater, following the sofa cushion and cleaning the messy table. Once felt enough, Adit began looking at all from behind the screen of the phone that has been installed on the tripod. After making sure the location of the mic booth also the seat looks perfect, Adit began to reach for the guitar and sit on the sofa.

Guitar strings plucked. Adit chose the song Bruno Mars. He wants Gesna to know that he will always support her no matter what the circumstances. Gesna only needed to play the song when he felt the need. Adit wants Gesna to know that what Lambe School is writing is rubbish because Gesna will remain special in her own way. 

"When I see your face. There's not a thing that I would change 'cause you're amazing. Just the way you are."

Let them gossip anything about him and Gesna, after all, who live them both. Who knows how Gesna is certainly Adit. Adit doesn't mind them saying his taste is low. They alone can not see how the funny, unique and distinctive side of a Gesna. 

Indeed, brown Gesna skin tends to be dull because it is often sunburned, but the girl's smile is brighter than all the stars in the solar system. Anyone who was near Gesna would always laugh, Gesna had many unpredictable sentences. Gesna basketball game is cool, the picture is also good. Ah, they are too superficial to judge beauty only by appearance. Suffice it to know, others do not need to know that much. Just add a rival later.

"And when you smile. The whole world stops and stars for a while. 'Cause girl you're amazing. Just the way you are."

At four o'clock in the morning, it's all done. Includes editing the raw documents to make them worth sending and enjoying. Adit relaxes the body. The video will be sent tomorrow to Gesna.

After turning off all the lights and turning on a sleeping lamp, Adit smiled once more then moved on to dreamland.

***

The phone vibrated nonstop, forcing Adit to open his eyes. He saw who the caller was, and Adit's lips smiled back for the morning. 

"Morning, dear," she said with a hoarse voice and heavy eyes.

"Gue's at your house, from earlier."

Adit's squeaking, trying to see the clock. Oh, my God, twelve o'clock. It's not morning anymore. "A minute, a minute."

After jumping quickly, Adit rushed to wash his face. He turned his head for a moment as he passed through the television room, sure enough, from the second-floor window saw a Gesna scooter parked below. Adit went down the stairs in a hurry to not finish thinking why he could wake up this afternoon. Lucky it's Sunday.

He did not have time to think about where Gesna knew his home address or what needs Gesna came here. Adit's joy has accumulated perfectly when he opens the door and finds his girlfriend already sitting on the porch.

"long-long-long-waited? Sorry, I'm bad luck. Hungry already? Where do you want to eat?" tanya Adit. 

Gesna remained silent and stared at the garden which contained only grass. Looks like the girlfriend is sulking because it was made to wait.

"If you don't mind, I'll take a shower, okay?" Adit scratched his clumsy head. "Sorry, Non. I really just woke up. Go in, yuk."

Adit's hand that was not responded to, made Adit smile again. Here's what it looks like that Gesna's picking up. 

"Open," tell Gesna.

Adit opened the black box. As expected, it's a guitar. This guitar is no ordinary guitar. Adit gulped when he saw the type written.

"If you want my macarin for this guitar. Sori, it's too cheap. I don't live fancy, but don't you think I can't buy that guitar to throw in front of you!"

Adit. His eyes widened, his sleepiness disappeared in an instant. This must be something wrong. Not everything is what Gesna thought. "Non, listen first" she asked, trying to hold Gesna's arm.

The girl wagged hard and kicked her legs at full force. "Lo listen, yeah. I'm not a toy. Lo it's setain! Get that guitar! Let's just say I pay off the debt of everything you've ever paid." 

The clothes that Adit lent yesterday also thrown Gesna at him. 

"All right now, I'm turning this shirt around. From now on, you don't have to do most theatrics. Don't be pretentious and pretentious about me!" point at the girl with blocked eyes.

Adit tries to reach Gesna's hand again, but the girl has climbed on the scooter. "Non, listen to my explanation first," Adit hoped while holding the handlebars of the scooter.

The sun just above the head makes the atmosphere hotter. The scooter was pulled Gesna as strong as possible. The girl also pushed her chest violently. 

"And there is nothing between us. I'm not your girlfriend. Let's take that down!"

Gesna's scooter advances until Adit is forced to remove his hand if he does not want to be dragged. He was still trying to chase after Gesna barefoot. The girl deepened the gas, leaving Adit far behind. All Adit could do was shout Gesna's name over and over again before finally realizing that the hope he had nurtured last night was shattered by a single stupid thing.

Trying to think quickly with a sudden dead-end brain, Adit decided to return home. Putting the origin of the guitar and the shirt that was thrown earlier, Adit just brushed his teeth and grabbed the jacket as fast as he could. The goal is basecamp.

Adit had no idea how long the road he had overtaken reached the place in just ten minutes and ran to the second floor without opening his shoes and exclaimed to Bara.

"Bar, come with me! Cepetan, "forcibly Adit ignored the astonished views of Miko and Bara. He grabbed Bara's jacket draped on the sofa and threw it at the guy.

Bara looks confused. The guitar in his hand was even removed by Adit. Signaling a very serious ongoing thing. "What's up?"

Adit turned around and walked quickly out of the room. His face is not playing games. "Buruan, come with me! It matters! Just use one motor." 

Understand that there is a very sudden situation, Bara chases quickly and jumps into Adit's bonds. "Ready in the bonfire, Bosque. Brought to KUA also Adek ready," he chanted trying to melt the atmosphere.

Instead of laughing, Adit pressed the gas firmly. Making Bara forced to shut up and look seriously at the streets. 

Within half an hour, they entered the housing and stopped at a house without a fence. Adit parked the vehicle carelessly.

Still without a sound, Bara followed. Curious who whack still held him. He knew Adit was more skilled at acting than explaining things. And after the door opened, Bara knew the cause of Adit's anger.

The girl who opened the door was surprised not dumbstruck to see their arrival and tried to close the door again. However, Adit first held back.

"Non, listen to me. Maybe you don't believe me. This is me bringing Bara to clear everything." 

Adit tried to persuade Gesna. His hand pushed the door open. Behind the door, Gesna also put up the same resistance.

Bara can feel what is going on between these lovers. He immediately fell down. "Ges, I can explain. Give me time to clear up. Okay?"

The push-back of the two camps is still ongoing. Gesna didn't give them a chance to explain.

"That bet doesn't exist, Gesna. Indeed, at first I made Adit bets but not to really get a guitar. I just want Adit to realize and confess his feelings to you." Bara still explained from behind the meranti wood slab. "And after Adit confessed his feelings, the bet was void itself. There's no intention of us nukar lo same goods, Gesna."

I don't know what power Gesna put out until the girl is able to close the door back and lock it. Adit repeatedly snorted violently. The hand that was still banging on the wooden door signified once that he was riding black. "Non, open it up."

Gedoran Adit lay repeatedly to the poor door, no results. Until his handbook turned red, the door was not opened. Adit groaned furiously, leaning against the door while grabbing hair.

Bara could only remain silent, observing how the Chieftain was burning with his own anger. Sitting on the porch bench, Bara took out a cigarette and tried to find a way out. He even pulled Adit to sit down. "Sit down, let's wait here. Who knows, he changed his mind. I'll buy you a drink for a second."

"Bar," call Adit while shaking his head. "No need. Sori, so ngerepotin. Go back, use my bike."

"How's lo?" Bara turned sceptical.

Adit removed the helmet that was still in use, trying to quell the anger without a target. "Gue is here."

Noticing the obvious haggard face, Bara nodded. Maybe they both need time to talk more privately. Without his presence, of course. "Yes, I'm back. I'll let you know if I need to pick it up. Don't be emotional, Dit."

Taking in as deep a breath as possible to relieve the tightness, Adit nodded. He was not angry with Gesna. Nor angry at Bara. He was angry and emotional to himself, to his folly, to the instinct of the proud conqueror. As a result of all that, what is wanted finally comes off before it can be grasped.

Adit sighed loudly, pulled back his own hair. All beauty is destined to be a dream.
