‘Ting! Tong!’


Suddenly the bell of Arka's house rang so


loud, it means if someone is waiting to open the door


out there. Suddenly it made all eyes fixed towards the teak wood door


thick, including the owner of this house who is busy struggling with


his cellphone. A second later, Arka immediately got up from her seat and headed to the door


those. After a while he returned with a large package in hand


his right.


“Pizza has come nih.” said Arka while putting


the pizza box was in our midst.


“Eat well us!” adit cheers with joy.


“Turns now open your mouth!” sindir Arka dengsn


sharpest.


“We are deliberately giving time to you same Eresha let


chatter. Because we know that lately you guys are fighting a lot.”


it was clearly Titan who also started to open his voice.


“We're not like that, really Arka?” argue with


pretty soon.


“Iya really, we are fine kok.” reply Arka while


nodding my words just now.


“Which do you know from whom?” ask them all.


A second later, they all pointed their fingers straight away


point to rah Stefani while putting on an unpleasant face.


Meanwhile, the girl just smirked as if innocent. I sighed my breath


violently clucking, after knowing the actions of the girl. I


don't know, I don't know what else he told them about me and Arka.


“Stef...” I said while looking at him cynically.


“Sorry sha…. But you guys fight a lot again


lately?” the pretext is clear.


“Heh! Do you know where this is from? Don't spread


hoax deh!” said Arka with a tone of speech.


“Emang really, I see Eresha lately often


it seems upsetting.” explained Stefani.


Arka glanced at me, with eyes that were hard to spot


just mean it. Then he heaved his nafs roughly into the air.


“Emang bener sha?” ask Arka with a little face on


buckled.


“Udahlah, why talk about it. That's what it was anyway


kemarim-yesterday, the proof is now I'm fine right?” my clear.


“Gue thought it was not so sha, today you even look more


bad.” Timpal Clara was joined by Stefani and Arka.


I lowered my eyes from all of them.


Right now I feel cornered by all of them, and it makes me


dead lice for running out of words. It turns out it's not that easy to


to deceive them, even though I have tried to evade them. They're too


makes me feel threatened, for interfering with my problems.


“Dimming now we eat only yes, do not remind


Eresha about it again.” said Arka who tried to divert the conversation, with


I was the main topic.


“Sorry I am sha, because of me you are kayak gini.”


stefani said, patting my shoulder softly.


“its okay, stef..” reply me short.


After forgetting the incident just now, I immediately returned


just be me and forget all the problems. Maybe Brother Sendy


I'll never come here again, just to see me or maybe


say hello he is no longer willing to lag. I try not to worry about things


after all, this event will still take place with or without him. Hodiernal


I began to dissolve in the atmosphere of the night which turned increasingly warm because


their presence. The five sons of man whom God entrusted to me to be


my best friend, and one of them has now returned to being the occupant of my little heart


which was empty.


We all began to eat our dinner solemnly,


sometimes it's also interspersed with laughter that makes me feel a little more


good. Separate here with all of them, away from the party crowd


that marriage was one of the best things I've ever had. Be within


the circle of friendship that made us


happy one another.


***


It's been almost thirty minutes, we're inside the house


these. Now it's time for us to go out and check what's going on


it happened out there, of course after clearing up some of that little mess


and make it back where it should be. We must have missed


there were many things while confining yourself in that place.


“Sha, we all want to go home. It's been a night


you see, it is not good if long.” said Clara then also in Anguki


by the others.


“Iya nih sha, afraid if long ntar we go home


even kemaleman.” continued Adit who also added the words Clara earlier.


“Oh yes, nothing. I understand your condition


kok.” reply me with a small smile.


“We say goodbye to your family first yes.” said Titan.


I nodded, saying their words. Temporal


waiting for Adit and the others to finish saying goodbye, Stefani and I had time


talk lightly for a moment.


“Stef…. You will not be updated with Titan at night


this?” ask the girl.


“Gak.”, Stefani replied briefly, as if it was not something


bad for him.


I was surprised not to hear a girl's answer


that just now, moreover he said that sentence so casually.


“Loh, why the hell?” I ask who is still not finished


think.


“Titan said in the retreat a day, tomorrow we will walk


coke. The plan is not in abort, only in doang.” retreat, he explained


gambling.


“Kok suddenly in retreat that anyway? What's the problem?”


ask me one more time.


The answer he gave just now, was not enough to


answered all my curiosity. What is the reason that makes this man


suddenly broke his promise like this. Yesterday this girl had


prepare everything perfectly.


“Say today is the schedule of the collision. Titan thinks this is the event


it will be fast, yes about late afternoon or about seven o'clock that night.


It turned out to miss far from what we expected.” he explained in detail.


“Sorry me yes.” I said while lowering my eyes.


“Loh, why even you who apologize sha?” ask


Stefani.


“Yes sorry, because of this event you guys are not so


nge-date kan.” explained me.


“It's not your fault sha, anyways this event is much more


it is important than just an event that is not necessarily clear how


finally.” said the girl in front of me with a serious face.


“The occasion of Kak Renata is much more important, because of this


regarding two hearts.” he continued.


“You're going to date the same Titan is also important, right for you?


It was also the same about two hearts of human children who are in love.”


obviously I am with words that I have arranged in such a way as to sound


more poetic.


“But I don't know how it will end, it could be


happy ending or sad ending.” Said me.


“So yes we go first, assume all the things that happen


in the future as a surprise. And as you once told me, there is


it's time for love to work, so now let's just follow the game.”


he responded with an amazing theory, which from nowhere he could


got it.


“Hei! We go back first, everyone!” a voice from


backside.


It turns out it was Adit, Titan and Clara who had just


done with the business. It looks like the three of them just got


ceramic-based souvenirs, and of course dinner


wrapped in plastic


transparently. It must have been mama who gave all this to them, totebag anyway


it was intended for guests who came as a thank you


from our big family.


“Wih, it's good to eat alone in your room ntar


night.” said Arka while a little joking with one of his closest friends.


“Haha…. Iri said bos.” reply Adit with a sense of humor


not inferior to Arka.


“But! Why am I envious too, anyways ntar I can dapetin


much more food from lo.” reply Arka.


I could never understand how the humor of the people


men are joking like this. The discussion in every conversation they do not


it can ever be understood by women. Perhaps the opposite with


them. That is why it is not uncommon for men and women to clash because


disagreement. In my opinion, every human being is intentionally in


create with a lot of differences, so that they can complement each other later.


Just imagine if all humans on this earth have a piki pattern


the same, and always the same in all things, just imagine if they all became


one frequency. Life on this earth will not be as happy as it is now,


the universe will be too monotonous and boring. There's not gonna be the same pulling


once to see, but because of the difference that makes the universe


become as it is today.


“Yuk, we anterin get to the front.” Stefani said with


enthusiastic.


A moment later, we all immediately moved away from that place


to get them to the gate.


“Be careful on the road ya!” me and Stefani


concomitantly.


Today Clara and Adit left and went home together. Noth


only that, lately I also often see Adit piggybacking on the girl


with his motorcycle. I suspect that Adit is secretly trying to


approaching Clara. Meanwhile, Stefani is seen waving her hand


while staring at the back of the man who was slowly disappearing from his sight.


“Yuk in!” take Arka while embracing my shoulder.


I nodded, saying his words. I don't know when


this show is coming to an end, I haven't even checked my watch yet


since we were at Arka's house. I hope this show is over soon and


we can go back home, I'm really exhausted. I could be


fall asleep here if I can't hold back my sleep for a second. Anyways, anyway,


tomorrow is Monday and for sure I don't like that I don't either


know why people hate that day, including me. Maybe they all


I haven't been able to move on from my holiday yesterday.


done that. I know if this is the most once in a lifetime moment


it's nice for Renata, but not for us who are close to tepang. Seems


I need to be more patient again, soon today will be over.


“What exactly did Stefani say?” ask Arka


suddenly to me.


I don't know what to say anyway, why he should


I asked about it when I started to forget.


“Until you think of him? Even from far away


previous day.” he continued.


“Why the hell, have to talk about it again when I start


lupa.” reply.


“You haven't forgotten about that sha, I know that.” he said with


reassuring eyes.


I can only lower my eyes from him, I don't want to


she looked back at him or just let him look at me. I don't want if


this guy stole more information about my current mood. I don't know


why do I always meet people these days


sucks me. Everyone I've met lately has always been


sok knows the current condition, not least with Arka and Stefani.


“Entah that man who indeed will not be able to disappear from


your memory because it was destined to be like that, or indeed


you yourself are not ready for all this.” he explained.


Somehow, but that sentence just now is capable


makes me silenced and can't dwell one bit. I think that phrase


it really stabbed right in my heart.  It was one sentence that was able to make me hit back. This man


know exactly how to avoid me with just one move like


these.


“Until you completely forget about Brother Sendy, or maybe


never will at all, I will never go.” said the man.


“What if one day you will go and deny it


this promise you made.” reply me in a sad tone.


“You can think of me as a great liar sha, you


can hate me.” obviously.


“Dimming don't make your appointment, I know that


you will leave someday. I don't want to hate you just because


it will be.” I said.


“Means?” ask the man to me.


I took a deep breath before I started talking


revert. Because in reality, this is one of the things that is difficult to


I admit it. Although I can't love it yet


really, but I'm not ready to lose it. And now I'm sedamg


strive for it, to accept its presence without coercion at all.


“One day you will go far from me ka...” lirihku


slow down.


“I will never admit it sha, believe the same


i.” Pretexts.


“Unfortunately I can't believe that.” reply.


“Someday you will pick up your future to


across this island. Even then we are not just a distance away


inter-city or country, but continent ka..”.


obviously with a heavy heart.


A moment later, the man was stunned for a moment. In his mind


trying to process and digest all the meaning of my words


just now.


“So, about that scholarship huh?” ask Arka to me.


I nodded in agreement with her words, because it was true


if that's what I meant just now.


“I will send you home to meet you anyway, every


the year will be a semester holiday.” explained to me.


“This is not just Indonesia and Australia ka...”.


I tried to convince him


“Korea and Australia.”.


“You mean?” ask Arka who still does not understand


the meaning of my words just now.


It's actually something I've been dreaming of ever since


sitting in junior high school. I didn't expect my ideals


it will be something painful for now. At this time it will


it was the hardest decision of my life when I had to choose one


among them. Between love or ideals, two things are very difficult if


asked me to choose him.


“After High School I will continue my studies at


Koreanas. I applied for this scholarship a few months ago and now


wait for departure time. After all, this has been my goal since Junior High


ka, just like you.” I explained.


It was not easy for both of us, at the time


ideals require two people to be mutually scattered. This isn't the first


the time I experienced something like this. Student exchange program at the time


it almost got me stuck in the same situation.


“We can definitely make that step, finish college later


we will definitely meet.” he said.


“Trust me, there will always be a way for us


see you again.” he continued.


I always feel like I am destined to always


alone, it's always been like that. Everyone who was in the beginning always


near me, slowly go away and disappear from my life. Even that thing is already


it's been since I was a baby. I don't know what makes them always


evaded me. In reality, everyone will always come and go


in time, though I still want them to last longer


again be here.


“Promise after completion of college we will meet


again?” I said as I held up one of my little fingers.


“I promise, even I'll find you wherever it is.”


he replied, hooking his little finger on my finger.


“I will also find the man until I meet.” I said.


“Who?” ask Arka with a face that changed drastically.


“You want to know whose name is?” ask me again with a smile


small-time.


Arka nodded her head enthusiastically. On side


else, I can also clearly capture a curious expression as well as doubt.


“The long name is Arka Ray Lionando, usually he is called


Arka.” I said with a satisfied smile.


“Yes base, can. I thought who.” replied


while ruffling the top of my hair.


Shortly after, someone came to us. Initially


I guess it was one of the guests who wanted to sit here. But I'm even in


make it surprised not to play for him, because it turns out the person is Kak


Rayhan is Sendy's roommate. As I recall, this man


accompanying Brother Sendy when he returned to his hometown yesterday. It must be if


Brother Rayhan has returned here, as well as Brother Sendy. But only Kak


Rayhan alone came here, this time the man was standing before me


holding the picture tube he brought. I don't know if this guy's new


just finished college or how, until he also brought the object when


come hither. But I'm not sure if Brother Rayhan and Brother Sendy are in one


the same department.


I spread my eyes all over this place,


but I didn't know what I was looking for at the time. Probably Sendy's sister


also being here or maybe being met with Renata. However on


in fact, I did not see the trunk of his nose at all. But


my brain always commands me to always think positive, even


at a time like this. It was even this that kept me hoping


to have Brother Sendy right here. It turns out I was still so expecting


his presence until now, even when this day was almost over. I don't know


whether this time there really is a miracle or not at all.


“Nyariin Sendy yes?” ask Brother Rayhan to me.


I nodded quickly. I hope this guy wants to


tell me where the man is, because he's the last time


with Brother Sendy.


“Sendy again is not here.” Her speech.


The one thing I definitely felt at the time was disappointment,


because maybe I've been expecting a lot about his arrival today.


“Kak Sendy is where dong is?” ask the guy.


“Sorry, but I can't tell you about that right now.


I do not want to even destroy the happy atmosphere of mini.” Evidently.


I don't even know what the reason is so he doesn't want to


tell me about it. I suspect, not-don't Brother Sendy intentionally


asked this friend not to divulge his whereabouts. Although I have been


trying to forget and be very bodo over everything that happens


to him, I can never really forget him. Myself


I can't act like a hypocrite, because I can't be honest


this taste. Arka's right, that one guy hasn't completely disappeared from


my liver. It still fills part of the place. But maybe I have been


completely out of the man's heart. I'm wrong here, I shouldn't be


I forced this taste to exist once. If I could turn back time, maybe


I'd rather never remember it again. I'll let


the memory just disappears, without the need to be reminded.


People are right, they say regret


always comes at the end. If it is at the beginning, the name must be warming up. But there is


a lesson I can take from here. Regret is destined to


be at the end, so that humans dare to take risks. If the concept is not


like this, maybe humans will never dare to take a


important decisions in his life.


“Dimming lo open this only later on already arrived at home.


Maybe you will find the answers you need here later.” Say


at me.


“This what is it?” my many.


“The stuff from Sendy make lo.” replied Kak Rayhan while


I thrust the picture tube at me.


“What does it mean?” ask me one more time, then immediately


he received the thing he told me.


“Many, I can't call it one-on-one. Wrongfully


the only one is there is also a gift for your birthday yesterday.” he explained.


“But I suggestin, so you open this tube fit already in


aja's house. You see, Sendy does not want to when you say one of the goods


a gift from him.” he continued.


I don't understand anymore the way the man I thought


admire that. On one side he told me to back off, but on the other


he also gave me a signal to keep coming back after him. Although actually


I don't want to be looked at as a cheap girl like this. Already


enough I begged her for love like a shameless, ungodly girl


self-worth at all. This love shouldn't make me beg like


this, not the love of his name if it forces you to beg. Shouldn't be


a person becomes demeaned like this in the name of love
