Love Friends Pena

Letterbox

For my best friend,

Anastacia

Hi Intan,

How are you?, I wish you were always healthy. Is your day good?

Oh yeah Intan, it doesn't feel like I've moved abroad for a long time. At that time my parents were in a hurry anyway, pineapple you still like to write no?, or you already have a new pen pal no, my replacement there?.

If you get a new friend, I don't have a problem. But if you're looking for my replacement as your best pen pal there, I don't want dong. Cook me in two, right?.

Not that I'm banning you from having a new pen pal there huh, I'm just hoping that you don't forget me as your best friend, even though you might already have a new pen pal there. Even if you don't receive this letter anymore.

I will save the letter later after I return to Indonesia I will send this letter to you, already yes Nana Bay bay, I Miss you.

From your best friend,

Banyu B

Instantly one by one water started dripping from Banyu's eyes. Ari her eyes fell unstoppably again. One by one the memories repeated there was a sense of haru and sadness mixed with guilt. It has been almost 2 years since Banyu family returned to Indonesia. But during that time he had not been able to send the letters to his pen pals.

Banyu had written a letter since he was in the SD bench. At that time Banyu saw his playmate and front neighbor was very happy when he received a letter. And when asked, he was happy because he received a letter from his pen friend. Because of envy and curiosity, manyu tried to talk to his mother about his playmate who was very happy to receive a letter, about the children's magazine talked about by his friends who recently became a trend among children his age. At that time Banyu began to whine about wanting to have pen pals and write letters.

Because it could not bear to see that finally mom and papa Banyu gave permission to have pen pals. Banyu began looking for pen pals in a child magazine ad that appeared every week. Banyu got him a name with a short description that caught his attention “Anastasy” he also began to write an introductory letter and ask his papa to accompany him to remind the letter.

Long time passed after waiting for 1 month. Banyu waited for a reply with mixed feelings between fear of not being answered, and worried that for example he was not willing to be a friend of the questioner. Exactly 1 month after the letter was sent Banyu also received a reply letter. Since then Banyu has choked his pen pal, and since then the two have continued to send letters to each other.

Blue Banyu drowned with his own feelings, he got more chaotic after finding this box. 5 Years ago he said getting a sudden assignment from the office he was asked to immediately cut down abroad. Little Blue Banyu was asked to come without having time to send a letter or tell his pen pal that for some time he will soon move out of the country. As he begins to realize that he forgot to reply to his pen friend's letter and at this time he is not in his country and does not know how to send a letter abroad Banyu starts to become sad. Instead of eating he always wrote letters and intended to send them after returning to Indonesia later. Instead he kept all the letters he wrote in a month box and in a padlock.

One year, two years, three years he waited for the time to return home but did not come too. Slowly Banyu began to write letters less often until he finally stopped writing letters. Then lately he began to actively write again because he began to remember his pen friend.

Banyu then took another letter in the box this time the letter was blue. Banyu started reading one by one. The letter did not feel like time was passing quickly. Banyu had finished reading all the letters in the box. There was a desire in his heart to send the letter. But now he can no longer remember where the address of his pen friend was. Be until now he only wrote a letter and never sent the letter – letters again.

The night grew late and drowsiness began to attack Banyu Biru until he fell asleep beside a pile of paper while hugging the letter he was reading.
