See You Tonight

Chapter 24: End of July

The sound of complaining of people being carried by the wind that came out of nowhere. Whether it's loneliness, depression, disappointment, failure, and whatever it is that can make tears come out with a feeling of tightness in the chest.

Everyone must have their own problems, what is different is the way a person controls his emotions and seeks the best solution to get out of the problem as soon as possible. Some people are lucky to be surrounded by people who always support him no matter what, others are blessed with a stronger heart because they have to go through difficult times alone.

Even if it was just a nightmare though, if we could share the pain of that dream with others, we would definitely feel better. Therefore, people will actually be happier when surrounded by people who love him as well.

Right now, I feel like I'm dreaming. I didn't expect I'd go to such an incredible place with Sofia. Even to think that I could go to such an incredible place with Sofia alone I could not imagine it. And of course, right now I feel very happy. In fact, I can't even express this sense of happiness into words. I think my happiness now is far beyond the vocabulary, or maybe I just haven't found it yet.

To be honest, the most beautiful thing here is not the sky full of stars, or the city that looks like a starry sky. The most beautiful thing here was the smile of the young girl next to me at this moment. For a while, I was hoping that tonight would never end.

I will always remember his face tonight. A face filled with beauty, elegance, and happiness. My heart is pounding very fast right now.

The wind was getting louder, the sound of insects was now heard louder. The sounds of nature that were heard at this moment were like the sounds of the natural singing of the universe.

"Do you like Lang?" suddenly Sofia's soft voice resuscitated me who had been "flying far away" in daydreams.

"Eh like?" many wonder.

"Did you like the view?"

"Ah yes of course I really like hehe," answered me who was now laughing.

"Thank God, next time we'll be here again?"

"Yes, of course."

Suddenly my HP shook, it turned out that there was an incoming call from my mother. I remembered that I had not told my mother that I was going to Bintang Hill.

"Hello Galang?" open my mom up through a call.

"Hello ma'am?" answer me

"Where else are you, Lang? How come you haven't come home?"

"I'm back at Bintang bu hill, I'll probably be home a little later."

"Oh, I'm worried about you not telling me you want to go."

"Ah yes sorry ma'am, I forgot earlier hehe."

"Oh, be careful."

"Oh yes, ma'am."

"Call from your mother Lang?" ask Sofia.

"Yes, I forgot to tell my mom that I was going to go hehe" I replied.

"Oh so."

"Oh yeah, before you go home, you want to find dinner first?" my many.

"Can."

Because the time has shown at 18:50 we also rushed to find dinner first before going home. Sofia remembered that near the stop where we came down earlier, there was a food stall. We rushed there immediately.

After arriving, I ordered fried catfish and rice, while Sofia ordered fried chicken. For drinks, we both ordered iced tea.

***

At 19:30 we were at the stop waiting for the bus. Because it was quite night, the passing bus was getting less and less. It will take a while until the bus arrives.

"Thank you Lang already wanted to bring me here" said Sofia who sat next to me.

"I'm the one who should say thanks to you."

"Hihi means we should say thank you to each other well?" sofia said with a little laugh.

"You know Lang's summer triangle?" ask Sofia again.

"Yes, I've read it before, but I've never seen it in person. Why mother?"

"I've read that in Indonesia although a tropical country, but still can see the summer triangle. It's around July."

"Oh really? Then maybe now is the last day we can look for it. Tomorrow is August."

"Maybe, but even now I can't find it" he said, staring up at the sky.

I also looked up at the sky. I did read about the summer triangle, but to look for it directly, I guess I'm still not used to it.

***

After about 15 minutes of waiting, the bus arrived. We also got on the bus. This time, the bus was not too crowded either. There are still plenty of empty seats.

We again chose the seat on the right side. Sofia as usual was sitting by the window, while I was sitting right beside her left.

The atmosphere of the road at night looks smoother than when we left earlier. Looks like we'll get home sooner if it's like this.

***

On the way, Sofia seems to have fallen asleep. He leaned his head against the window next to him. He seems to be sleeping well this time.

I think I'll wake Sofia when it's almost there. Maybe he was a little tired, especially from the morning he had helped his father in a meatball stall.

***

Finally we are almost there, about 10 minutes we will arrive at the stop near Sofia's house. I plan to wake Sofia up now.

"Wake up Sof, we're almost there" I said, patting her on the shoulder.

"Eh I overslept, huh? Well sorry well Lang," said Sofia when she opened her eyes and realized that she had just slept.

"Oh, my dear Sof, why apologize?"

"I was sleeping, wasn't I?" tanyanya.

"Haha really. You slept in it."

"You should have woken me up earlier, I was so embarrassed huhuhuhu."

"Why embarrassed? You look cape so I didn't wake you up until you were almost there."

Eventually the bus stopped. We went down and rushed straight to Sofia's house. Luckily, I had a bike with me, so I was able to get home faster.

After arriving at Sofia's house, I immediately picked up my bike and got ready to go straight home.

"Once again thank you Lang, Oiya this is your jacket," said Sofia as she took off my jacket she was wearing.

"It's nothing, I also say thank you very much. I want to go home first. Good night, see you tomorrow."

"Good night, be careful."

"Okee," I said as I began to pedal my bicycle leaving Sofia's house. Sofia was seen waving her hands at me.

I paddled my bike pretty fast this time. Every now and then I look up to see a sky filled with stars tonight.

In a few hours, July will be over and will be replaced in August. July of this year provides a very extraordinary and unexpected experience. Starting from making friends, to being able to meet a very sweet and caring girl like Sofia. Even tonight, I can go to an incredible place with him. It feels like a miracle.

I don't know what August will be like. I hope it will be as good as July, or if it can be better. Good evening.
