The graceful steps of a pair of foot-levels appear to be walking down the lobby of a shipping company. A smile expands with each passing by the person who greets him kindly.
Beautiful women who look fashionable with clothes with famous brands wrap their slim bodies, entering the elevator that takes them on the floor on the destination.
" That afternoon !" greet the woman who is none other than Diandra, he greeted the secretary.
" Uh, Miss Diandra, that's ma'am !" greet the secretary who was previously busy with work until his focus was on the laptop in front of him.
'' Andreas is there ?'' diandra asked gently with a smile on her lips.
'' There's Ma'am, Andreas' father inside'' replied the woman who had memorized Diandra who often came to Andreas' office.
Just a while ago when Andreas was pronounced dead the woman did not step on this office. But after the existence of Andreas was found and the man was just bad. He often approached his girlfriend. Like this afternoon armed with food that had been purchased he came to Andreas' office.
'' Baby !'' diandra shouted while pushing the door and opening it. But there is no lawfulness. Diandra walked in with a carefree smile. His steps came to a halt as the sight before him froze his steps. Andreas stood facing the large glass window in his room. With two palms in your pocket.
The man looked far away. The towering body was not aware of the arrival of the woman. The fear travels too far. Penetrate the stretched time distance. Stranded in the shadow of a beautiful figure that does not disappear from memory.
'' Ndre !'' soft Diandra while holding Andreas' arm. Makes the man shocked. And reflex took Diandra's hand off her arm.
'' Uh Di, I'm here. I can't hear you coming in Andreas said as he realized who was coming.
Diandra tried to smile despite the tightness that squeezed the chest. He knew the man still held a tight feeling in his heart for the girl he had left behind.
'' I call you not horrified, why ?'' diandra asked, pretending not to know the state of the man in front of her.
'' There's nothing. Just a little tired said Andreas with his smile.
" Haven't eaten yet, have I brought lunch. I bought it at your favorite restaurant, said Diandra softly, Andreas turned his gaze towards the table near the sofa and sure enough there was food that was still wrapped tightly.
'' Thanks, we ate together ! '' take Andreas as he steps closer to the sofa followed by Diandra behind him.
'' Di, please open the door. We're just two here, afraid to be slanderous said Andreas, who was immediately run okeh the woman. Although not too familiar with Andreas' changes, Diandra tries to adjust.
Since his return from the village, Andreas has changed a lot. There was never a hug, a touch let alone a kiss from the man. Every time he came, the door had to be wide open. Diandra knew it was for the good, but for her who had yet to understand it was a little burdened.
'' I took the plate first said Diandra who then stepped towards the pantry in the corner of the spacious room. Andreas observed in silence. He knew how sincere the woman was towards him. But why the rest of the love left in his heart can no longer ignite the coals that warm the chest.
All felt bland, close to Diandra no longer cause a burning sensation. But he will still try to survive, and ignite a sense of love that is slowly extinguished.

Tuk
The sound of the book that was placed on the table that Alfi was using to read. Made Alfi raise his head and stare at who was coming.
''Mas Judis, Assalamualaikum mas '' shocked Alfi when he realized who approached him who was sitting in the city library.
'' Wa'alaikumussalam, can you sit here ?'' yudis asked as he sat before Alfie.
'' Please Mas '' said Alfi who then returned to pursue the book in front of him. Judis looked as if to the left right as if looking for something.
'' You are on your own ?'' asked Judis who was looking for the existence of people who might come with Alfi.
'' No Mas, Sam Salwa and Mas Fariz. That's the person said Alfi while pointing to one of the directions where the two people who were with him were looking for a book by standing next to each other.
'' Oh, kirain himself. Have you started working on the thesis ?'' asked Judis in a soft tone, Alfi nodded and replied softly.
'' Already''.
Judis no longer spoke much, she knew the girl in front of her was focusing on the book she was reading. Sometimes it seems that Judis stole a look at Alfi who seemed to ignore his existence. Judis smiled to herself . Realizing the fear of his heart that did not dare to reveal all the feelings in his heart.
He was too afraid of rejection, making himself choose silence. And just stare in silence, enjoy the beauty of a beautiful face that relaxes even from behind hiding.
'' Eh there is Mas Yudis, Assalamualaikum mas !" Fariz approached them. He greeted the Judis who immediately welcomed his hand. Salwa who was behind Fariz was now sitting next to Alfi.
'' Wa'alaikumussalam, how are you Fariz?, long time no see ?'' greet Judis even with a soft voice because they are aware of where they are.
'' Alhamdulillah well Mas,Mas himself how are you ?. Have you ever met Nas Andreas again ?'' the name Fariz spoke made Alfi sharpen his hearing.
Since leaving the village. Andreas was indeed quite intensely communicating with Fariz and Dad but he never dared to ask them about the man.
'' Thank God I was also good, two weeks ago I went home and met Andreas. He said mid-next month there is a visit to the branch office where you work, said Yudis.
'' Yes, Mas Andreas has also informed me Fariz said, making Alfi's heartbeat work a little faster. The man will come to this small town again. The possibility of them meeting is very large, because it can be ascertained Andreas will meet his parents .
Is his heart ready for that day ?. He was not sure, because in fact the taste was not lost. Precisely the feeling of longing sometimes surrounds the inner, until sometimes leaving a sense of lara.
And he could not deny also, that he was happy to hear the news of the arrival of an Andreas. For a moment he could see that face. It is possible that by seeing it the longing can be broken from the heart.
A conversation is impossible in the library. Finally they were silent, busy with their respective readings. But do not forget the two young men sitting next to each other just keep stealing glances at the girl in front of them, even with different objects. Judis who secretly looked at Alfi and Fariz who had been entangled in the charm of Salwa .
