Look at Me, Open Your Heart
The Part 104
Around 1.20 GMT+9 (KST). The Indonesian Rajawali plane that Vir was on board took off at Incheon International Airport, South Korea. Which is one of the largest airports in Asia that has been 3 times in a row included in the category of the best airport in the world based on the Global Traveler survey period 2006 to 2008.
Virendra and the other passengers on board are Hoteliers who will be attending the hotel awards in the country.
He and other colleagues stepped into terminal 1 of the airport and immediately entered a taxi that was available just in front of the arrival area that is always in each terminal.
After getting into the taxi, he sent a taxi driver to Signiel Seoul Hotel which is the place to stay as well as the place where the event was held.
Signiel Seoul is part of Lotte World Tower. Which is one of the grandest hotels in Seoul, South Korea it occupies the 76th floor to the 101st floor in Lotte World.
After about 60 minutes by taxi from Incheon International Airport, the taxi that Vir drove finally arrived at Signiel Seoul. Guests were greeted by bellboys. After Check-in and get the keyCard, an officer immediately leads him to the room in the residence.
“Jal swida, joh-eun halu doeseyo; korea (happy rest, have a nice day)” said the hotel clerk was friendly as he bowed after finishing opening the door for their guests.
Vir, who doesn't really understand Korean, just smiles and bows.
After the officer left, he dragged his steps and suitcase towards the bed. It felt as if his body wanted to crumble simultaneously after the long grueling journey he went through.
Now he immediately spread his body while staring at the ceiling of the room with two arms folded under his head.
For a moment he closed his eyes, but a second later he was wide again like he was remembering something..
He directed his right hand then glanced at his watch there.
“Already middle 3..” He muttered and then changed his position to sit while reaching for his phone which since in Indonesia he deactivated.
Once turned on, many notifications are coming in. instead of the messaging application, the name Aileen is listed on the top position. The smile on his back from the foggy and sleepy face that attacked at the same time disappeared instantly.
He then clicked on his wife's name and read the message.
Aileen : “Have arrived? ahh Must not have arrived yet,?”
“Sure, it's only 5 hours drive.. The plane will only arrive after 7 hours of flight if there are no obstacles, hopefully not!”
“I just wanted to say Safe flight, I'll miss you so much..”
“I can't sleep.”
“Maybe because you are used to sleeping together and when you go through one night without you, it feels so difficult.”.
Again the tip of the lips was again interested in forming a smile that was so sincere. The row of messages that Aileen sent out actually made her senses flutter with eyes that began to condense while muttering softly.
“I miss You More.” Vir shrank the tip of his eye that felt heated “Can't stop.” unconsciously a drop of warm circles just flowed. I don't know since when he became a pitiful guy who was so mellow. Oh, this is what a real LDR feels like. Away from dear Aileen feels so sad.
Just this time he was crying over someone who was far away from him, even when the departure of Oma opa he was still able to hold back his crying so as not to break. Fia's pain which should also make them LDRan for 1 year did not make her eyes hot like this. Why is this time so different. The woman named Aileen was able to make him sad only in the duration of time that has not even been said to be one day, only counted a few hours but had made it as painful as this.
“I'm new, until.. I miss you too.” reply Vir on Aileen's message.
“Now you must be sleeping, huh? SURE... It's late now!” the second reply
“Good sleep my Sun, after all finished I go straight home.” reply again.
But the message is completely unread, just tick 1 and turn into a colorless 2. Makes him think that Aileen is already asleep, but when she wants to go back to the home screen, check two it turns blue indicates the recipient of the message has read the message even written Online in the left corner. Make it immediately squeeze the Video call sign on the top right corner of the phone screen.

Meanwhile, in another part of the world. Precisely in the hemisphere through the equator, in one of the countries that have various nicknames, one of which is called by the nickname Nusantara.
A lethargic-faced woman endured the drowsiness with scratches on her face still awake when the time had already shown at 12:30.
After 11:15, she who had not fallen asleep took the time to send a message to her husband who was on a long flight. After that, sleep for a short time and wake up again when the clock is pointing at the number 12 with seconds and minutes that continue to chase.
Her eyes could no longer meet, at the same time she checked her phone after successfully guessing the flight time of her husband.and sure enough, at the same time, at the same time, she was able to check her phone, a notification of the awaited number is perched on the main screen of the phone.
Excitedly opening the message, the smile never faded as he began typing short, meaningful replies to loved ones who were far away from him who managed to make his sleep unwell.
I haven't yet written a follow-up reply. The screen of the phone had already turned into a call notification, making the drowsy covered face disappear instantly, changing with a charming carefree smile.
He then shifted the blue mark with the video camera logo to the top. Then showed a smile from a charming figure behind the phone.
“Hy.” The sweep from there, making the incoming air freeze instantly, with tightness that radiates into the chest cavity. Without feeling a clear circle began to drip from his eyes.
“Hy..” reply is stiff, already like the person who first called with a bustle.
“I just arrived at Signiel Seoul after taking almost 1 hour sari Incheon Airport.” Vir just gives information.
But the one who was told did not flinch at all, only showing a smile and a brief nod.
“Why haven't slept, It's been almost 3...” Vir stops his words when he realizes they are in a different country.
“Emmnt, I mean definitely there at 12 o'clock by right.” Vir went back to justifying and Aileen just nodded.
Vir kept looking at him fixedly, as if their eyes were so close to deep gazes, diving into each other..
“We are different 2 hours, meaning in Korea it is almost 3 hours, yes?” said Aileen who tried to open the chat.
Yes, it is true. If calculated from Indonesia Time Zone GMT+7 which covers western Indonesia (WIB) then the time difference with South Korea is only 2 hours. But if with GMT+8 Central Indonesia Time (WITA) then the difference is only 1 hour while with GMT+9 Eastern Indonesia Time (WIT) then there is no time difference between South Korea and the region Indonesia is located in the East with GMT+9. Which means eastern Indonesia time is the same as the time in South Korea which also has GMT+9/UTC+9 .
Vir just nodded and then said “Sleep, Sun. It's late.”
“I can't sleep, hmmmin.”
“Sorry..” watered down Vir from across there with a fixed gaze that never gets sidetracked in the slightest.
“Apologies for??” Aileen nodded in wonder
“I can not accompany when you are injured like this.” Vir watered with a face full of regret, maybe even shedding tears. I don't know.
“Hmmmin, Same..I also can not accompany you.” Aileen's eyes began to glaze over, He was no less mellow.
A few minutes passed without engaging in chatter, only reciprocating gazes in full meaning from behind the device.
“Already, don't be like this, I'm getting harder to sleep when discussing sad things.”
Vir smiles at it, “Okey.. Now say, What can I do so that you are not sad and can sleep.” Vir returned to lay down with a sideways position, so that Aileen could see the entire space behind Vir which was so spacious with a luxurious interior in white.
“Mau hugs.” said straightforwardly which made Vir chuckle.
“If I could have hugged it from earlier, maybe even we are doing a nice-take” Vir said while winking.
“Mesum..!” cibir Aileen “Eh, it's still that shirt this afternoon right? Not changed clothes?” guess Aileen when she realized that Vir was still wearing the same clothes when she last met a few hours ago.
“Iya, I haven't had time to shower let alone change clothes.. New until.!”
“Yes already, take a shower and rest.. You must be tired.”
But Vir shook his head, “Sleep later, I want to accompany you until you can sleep.”
Vir's words were able to thrilling Aileen, the woman again blushed in shame.
“How about I sing so you can sleep” Vir sounded sigh for a moment then said “Don't stay up late, not good.”
“Emmnnt, can” Aileen sparkled happily after a moment of silence while remembering whether Vir could sing. And the answer is, once, he heard her sing once, while in the car on the way to Mommy's House.
“But promise, you have to go straight to sleep.”
Aileen nodded back. Vir is completely different from before, so sweet with a soft voice like never before that it always sucks. Seems like being in a different country makes his brain a little different. Aileen smirked her smile at Vir who was justifying his position by leaning on the headboard and preparing to sing as a sleep deliveryman for him.
“Close your eyes, I'll start.” said Vir with a face that was so calm.
Aileen began to close her eyes, but before that, she had already positioned her phone leaning on the pillow while facing herself so as not to bother holding it.
“...You're who I'm thinking of”
“And girl, You ain't my runner-up”
“And no matter what You're always number one.”
“My prize possession, one and only”
“Adore you, girl I want you.”
“The one I can't live without that's you, that's you.”
“You're my special, little lady”
“The one that, make me crazy”
“Of All the girls I've ever known. it's you, it's you..”
(Favorite Girl by Justin Bieber)
“Good sleep Eil, I love you.!” lirih Vir while peeking at the phone screen that shows Aileen who has fallen asleep.
