I'm Not Taking It Again

I'm Here

Every day Dirga comes to Niar's cafe. I wish Niar had come back from out of town. However, the one who was waiting did not also reveal himself. The longing that continues to stir must be held back. She hugged Niar's body.

"Where? Is Niar home yet?" ask Nindy to Dirga who has already entered the boarding house.

"Not yet to go home" he replied in a lethargic tone.

"Sister, are you sure Brother Niar is still alone? Ndy is afraid that Brother will be disappointed again" said Nindy.

"Find out about Brother Niar now. Don't rush to show yourself to Brother Niar. There must still be a wound stored in Kak Niar's heart. Much has changed also from Brother Niar."

Dirga was silent at Nindy's words. If, Dirga immediately approached fear Niar will get further away. It is in front of the eyes do not let go back.

"With Big Brother's face like this, surely Brother Niar does not recognize Brother. Approach slowly, find out slowly. When the reality is that Kak Niar is not alone, that's where Brother must go away and forget Kak Niar," he explained.

Dirga digested Nindy's words. Everything Nindy said was true. He can't be rash. Five years could change everything including Niar's attitude and heart.

"Tomorrow Big Brother will try to apply for a job at his cafe" he said.

Nindy stared intently at her brother. Only seriousness emanated from the handsome face of the older brother.

"And introduced Brother's name as Angga" he continued.

Nindy smiled faintly, how indomitable this brother of hers was. Rela fought and never gave up for the sake of the lover. Is there still stock like his brother on the face of this earth?

In the morning, in neat clothes Dirga drove his motorbike to the cafe Niar. Previously, he drove Nindy first to campus.

After entering the cafe, Dirga approached one of the employees. "Sorry, is there a job opening?" tanyakanya.

"Nothing, Mom."

"Nothing the dishwasher part either," he added.

The other employees looked at each other. The decision of whether there is a job vacancy is on the supervisor. The steps of a person split the silence. Dirga's heart thumped fiercely at the woman he so longed to be in front of him. She hugged Niar's body.

"What's wrong?" ask Niar.

"Someone wants to apply for a job, Ma'am," said one of the employees.

Niar stared at the man who was not wearing a uniform. Suddenly his heart began to beat. Their gazes locked onto each other until Niar cut off eye contact to the man in front of him.

"You're the one who's gonna apply for a job?" ask Niar.

Niar froze, hearing the sound made the longing that slowly disappeared is now present again. His eyes began to ponder, and Dirga felt a glare of sadness in the eyes of his heart adoration.

"Follow me up" Niar said.

Dirga smiled very happily to be close back to Niar. Niar whom she misses and loves very much.

"Please sit down."

"No, Ma'am. I stand, " replied Dirga.

"Whose name are you?"

"Fugitive."

Niar's heart ached to hear that name. Last name of Dirga's lover first. It turned out that he had not been able to forget anything that was inside Dirga.

"There's an empty position here. That's the waiter, you have to take orders to the visitors' table." Dirga just nodded his head.

"Tomorrow you can work here" said Niar.

"But if the waiter works from 12 noon to 10 pm. Are you ready?"

"Ready Ma'am," said Dirga with enthusiasm. A sweet smile curled up on her lips.

That smile ....

Niar glued to see Dirga's beautiful smile. This long smile she longed for and could never forget.

"You can go." Dirga nodded slowly and stayed away from Niar.

Just as Dirga grabbed the doorknob, a small sob was heard in the room. Dirga glanced back, Niar was crying. Makes Dirga's heart cut.

I'm here, Niar, baby. Are you crying over me too? Just like I always cry for you.

Happy reading ..
