For Kahiyang

40: Two Years Ago (Alsha)

Two years ago on an island, north of Jakarta. Right on Alsya's twentieth birthday. Alsya chose to celebrate her birthday with her friends on an island. The private island is owned by his family, the Permadi family.

There are several villas built for rent. Alsya left without her family. They went to the ten island on a speedboat.

In the middle of the journey, suddenly the speedboat engine died. There was damage and all the panic. In the middle of the sea with a cloudy sky and also a strong wind. Looks like it's going to rain.

"Sir, why did you die gini? Didn't check the engine first? you should be even more thorough!" Alsya is upset while wearing an orange life vest.

"Sorry, Non. I was in a hurry. Suddenly my son was sick, he had to be taken to the hospital immediately. I'm sorry, Non. But I've contacted other colleagues to help us" the speedboat driver explained.

"Yes already is. Get her here quickly! The waves get bigger, it will rain." said Alsya then went to the lower deck.

His friends waited in one large room, each wearing a life vest.

"Where?" ask Sofi.

"We wait for reinforcements. Huh ..." - threw the body into the chair- "my cell." lamented Alsya.

"Udah nyantai. The important thing is that we become a party tonight" Ais said.

Thirty minutes waiting, no reinforcements coming. Alsya's been messing around.

"It's been half an hour, sir. But the man's man has not arrived. Do I need my Papa's phone?" alsya said, his patience was no longer able to hold. He thought that not contacting his father Reza, was the right way so that the father did not get sanctions. But the situation is getting worse. The rain began to fall quite heavily accompanied by sea breeze and waves.

Only an apology can come out of the speedboat driver's mouth. Alsya left the wheelhouse again.

And the roar of the speedboat engine was heard approaching. Alsya went back up the stairs to make sure that reinforcements had arrived.

"Why, Sir?" yell someone from the edge of the speedboat.

"Machine die. Damaged, Mas," replied the speedboat driver loudly, to be heard.

"How many people are inside?" ask the man again.

"There are ten people, Mas," he replied.

"Moving! everybody move here. The rain is getting heavier. Danger," he said.

Alsya nodded quickly at the man's words. He immediately shouted at his friends to immediately go up and move to another speedboat.

Their movement is not as easy as when on land. The waves make the ship shake. The situation is very tense. Alsya could not reach the man's hand when it would move, because the waves hit the speedboat again. Alsya fell to the floor deck.

"Aahhh .." he shouted.

"Non, isn't papa? ayok wake. I help you" said the driver. Help Alsya stand up and approach the man.

"Quick! a little more, a little more," cried the man as he continued to extend his hand.

Alsya tried to grab the man's hand and succeeded. Alsya was so frightened, hugging her so strongly while crying.

"Udah is safe," - patting back - "follow me!" pull Alsya to the bottom deck. Alsya silently lowered her head, following the man.

"Sit down!" her word.

Alsha raised her head. Stare at the man who is handing out a small towel. "Just the same hair as your shirt is wet. Sorry, the towel is small," he said, then turned his face away.

Alsya was surprised, realizing she was soaking wet and her underwear was clearly visible. Alsya covered her chest with a towel.

"Why not say that from now on? you pervert!" chirps, annoyed.

"Why are you still here?" ask Alsya.

"Here," - giving black t-shirts - "what matters is that you don't catch a cold. I just have this. No way, did I give you my pants, too?" said.

"Jude, go there!" expel Alsya. The man went upstairs to check the broken speedboat.

The damaged speedboat was towed to the Permadi family's island. A coincidence, the man and his three friends will indeed vacation in one of the villas on the island.

As usual, Alsya did not want to be recognized as the innkeeper's daughter. All the employees and also his friends closed the Alsya identity meeting. Other visitors only know Alsya as a guest who will hold a birthday party there.

Night event at the corner of the villa with a large private pool. Alsya wears a pink casual dress, just above her knees.

Everyone plays while the DJ is playing music. A boisterous voice was heard enough to reach the villa, where the man had helped Alsya and her friends.

"That's noisy! I thought, choose this island to calm down. He knew it was noisy, too" Ibn was upset. It feels useless to come on vacation there.

"For our apes. Nih, lo ear choppers," said his friend, thrusting a white headset.

"Anjrite! What kind of holiday is gini. I'm dizzy about koas, wanting healing. Ah ta*i! bang*sat!" umpat Iboy who just came out of the bathroom, then jerk hard towel on the bed.

"Diem lo! disturb the sleeping people," Andri snapped, throwing a pillow at Iboy. He was already sound asleep, but surprised when Iboy jerked a towel into the bed next to him.

"Gue even more dizzy denger lo lo on ngoceh than earlier," he said, pointing to three friends alternately. The man chose to leave the villa.

Being annoyed, he approached the source of the noise in the corner of the villa. The light led him to get there. Instead of protesting, the man was pulled by two of Alsya's friends. They recognized him because he helped.

"Syaaa .." one of his friends who was holding the man's right arm shouted loudly at Alsya who was busy dancing around her body.

"Syaaa ..." second shout. Alsya still hasn't heard. Finally two friends of Alsya pulled the man to get closer.

"Stop! Stopit! Guys, stop first! We have a handsome guest. Our savior this afternoon. What if this handsome guy joins the party too?" said Alsya's friend who still grabbed the man's arm.

Alsya looked at him while smiling a little. Looking at the relaxed appearance of the man from top to bottom. Cute too. His inner.

The voice agreed and increasingly boisterous was heard. The man just silently stared intently at Alsya. Maybe because Alsya looks so beautiful and different.

"I'm Alsya," reached out first.

"Gue Earth," retorted, shaking hands.

After the incident on the island. Alsya and Earth are getting closer. Spend the weekend together. Although just touring to the top or to new cafes that are aesthetic.

"Tomorrow I must go again to America. Maybe next year I will go home" Alsya said. His tone sounded less excited. The new happiness that he has not long felt with Earth, must be ended with his departure tomorrow to the land of Uncle Sam.

Alsya wants to make sure of her relationship with Earth before she leaves.

"Why just say it now? I'm not ready for you. As if one thing that makes you always want me," Earth grasped Alsya's hands.

Alsya shook her head. "That's okay, I don't need stuff. I just want the certainty of our relationship" he said directly.

"Should it be said? I think it's been clear all along" said Bumi. Alsya.

"*I love you*u ..." The earth pressed down on Alsya's chin and kissed her.
