THE MEETING OF SULIS AND AHMAD

Chapter Five: The Meeting of Sulis and Ahmad

Sulis sat in a cozy cafe, waiting for Ahmad. The cafe is filled with the aroma of fragrant coffee and jazz music that plays a soothing sound. Sulis glued to the coffee glass placed in front of him, while occasionally looking at the watch embedded in his wrist. It felt like time was going very slowly, making Sulis even more agitated.

Finally, the door of the cafe opened and Ahmad came in to the table where Sulis was sitting. He smiled broadly at Sulis who was waiting for him.

"I'm sorry I'm late" Ahmad said, kissing Sulis on the cheek.

Sulis shook his head, "It's okay, I just arrived too."

Ahmad sat in front of Sulis, then glanced at the coffee glass on the table. "Would you like to try this place's specialty coffee?" ask Ahmad.

Sulis nodded, "It can, it seems suitable to welcome a relaxed atmosphere like this."

Ahmad called the waiter to order two special coffees. While waiting for the coffee to come, they chatted about their work and personal lives. Sulis told about his dream to open a small business, while Ahmad told about the social activities he participated in.

After a few minutes, the coffee arrived at their table. Sulis tried the coffee and immediately amazed with a delicious taste. He smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

"There's no coffee here" Sulis said.

Ahmad smiled proudly. "Yes, this place is famous for its good coffee quality."

Suddenly, the jazz song they heard was finished, and slowly turned into a more romantic song. Sulis and Ahmad were stunned for a moment, looking at each other with meaningful gazes.

Sulis stammeredly said, "Ahmad, I've been harboring feelings that are more than just friends to you. I want to be more than that."

Ahmad smiled happily. "Sulis, I feel the same way. I'm in love with you."

They both smiled and held hands. The moment was like a new leaf in their relationship, filled with hope and happiness.

From another corner of the cafe, a writer was writing in his notebook. He smiled with satisfaction at Sulis and Ahmad who finally found happiness together.

"Their story is proof that hope is always on every page of our lives" the author murmured as he continued to write other wonderful stories.

Sulis and Ahmad spent a good time at the beach. They take a walk along the soft white sand while enjoying the beautiful view of the calm sea. The peaceful atmosphere brought the two closer to each other.

As the sun began to sink in the western horizon, the two of them walked towards the deeper shore. The waves breaking on the rocks give a soothing sound and pamper their ears. They looked towards the vast sea, looking at the irreplaceable natural panorama.

With a heart full of happiness, they decided to swim in the middle of the night. A bright full moon illuminated their path in the sea water. They felt a tremendous sensation of freedom and freshness as they felt the water sweeping through their bodies. Ahmad and Sulis held hands late into the night, enjoying the warmth of each other in the sea water.

When dawn began to break, they came out of the water and walked back to their seats. The hunger started to hit, so they made a small bonfire to cook food. While waiting for the fire to burn, the two of them shared their stories, joked, and enjoyed their togetherness.

When food is cooked, the smell of delicious immediately out and arouse their tastes. They dined together with happiness, enjoying simple dishes but full of warmth of love and friendship. No words could express how happy the two of them were.

After they finished eating, they relaxed under a dark sky filled with stars. Sulis stared at the sky in awe, looking at the bright and glittering star pattern. Ahmad looked at Sulis with a loving gaze, happy to see how beautiful Sulis was in their togetherness.

As the night wore on, fatigue finally began to engulf them. They wrestle with each other, enjoying warmth and peace as they sleep under the quiet night sky. They dream about other adventures they will have together in the future.

The morning came and they were awakened by the stinging sunlight. They looked at the beautiful beach with smiles on their faces. Even though their adventure had ended, their memories would always live on in their hearts.

Ahmad and Sulis stepped home at a slow pace, bringing home a heart filled with happy and happy memories. The beach has given them an unforgettable experience, strengthened their bond and created a relationship that will continue to develop over time.

After overcoming a difficult separation, Sulis and Ahmad return to their daily lives. They try to restart their routine with enthusiasm and optimism.

Although they have a great responsibility at work, they do not forget the importance of time to relax and spend time with family and friends. Sulis enjoys spending time with his family on weekends, while Ahmad often exercises and takes short trips to refresh his mind.

However, they had a strong determination to keep going and did not want to get caught up in grief and despair. They strive to maintain enthusiasm and optimism, by seeking motivation and support from those closest to them.
