Title: My SunFlower is You

_________________________

The sun began to move down towards where it rested. He began to leave beautiful lights in the sky traces of him. Making the afternoon a beautiful panorama that I used to see lately.

I Want You's.. I need You's.. I Love you. My phone reads a sign of a call coming in from my lover, Vidrianta. Yes, the heavy rotation tone was deliberately installed only for him.

'Ara, the children ask to gather something to talk about' said the man there.

'uh? When?' my many.

'this afternoon, 4' replied the man.

'can, can where?' ask again.

'in the usual place we gather honey' he said kindly.

'oh, are you going to pick up?' i'm making sure.

'definitely' the answer is steady.

'hihihi, thanks honey, yes I am ready first yes' I said.

'iya honey bye bye' then he closed the connection.

I am also ready. I wear a black knee-length truss shirt with white dots with a white ribbon on my waist. I used the red scarf my grandmother gave me 2 years ago. By wearing long transparent color stockings and high shoes to knee color in line with my scarf, I was ready to go.

The short needle on the red watch that was curled sweetly in my hand started to show the number 4 it was a sign that Vidrianta would come to pick me up. After checking my luggage again I also took my beloved little sling bag on the bed.

Tin. tin.tin.tin.the car horn was heard from outside my house. 'Ara, there's Vidrianta, he said he'd pick you up.' Mama said to tell me in a slightly ignorant tone. 'iya ma, this is also finished kok' I said as I went down the stairs. 'hem, really beautiful this mama's daughter? Where the hell are you going, honey?' ask mama. 'usual mah children ask for a meeting at the cafe.' I answered while checking the things in my bag. 'oh, I thought you guys were going on another date, haha' mama laughed. Mama, it's been allowed about my relationship with Vidrianta, he said as long as we do not do strangely we are still allowed, besides my parents and Vidrianta's parents have long known. 'ah, mama could have.' I feel my face starts to blush. 'hahaha your face is red, hihi' ledek mama. 'ah, this mama, yes I have the same Vidrianta go first yes mom, muah bye' I said, 'ah, while kissing the back of the hand mama. 'yes be careful yes dear, Vidri, aunty titip daughter beautiful aunt that one yes' message mommy on Vidri. 'ready aunt' said Vidri while respectfully kissing the back of your hand.

Vidri wears a white shirt and a black jacket. Yes, because it is now winter. He wears black jeans and matching sneakers that make him even cooler.

After saying goodbye to mom, Vidrianta and I went to the location. 'honey, what is it? How do children suddenly feel?' ask me to break the silence that from earlier hugged us tightly. 'uh? I did not know earlier I was also told the same to Mukti, he said the only one who came was to Mukti, Mba Tias the same Lusi.' He replied. 'oh, maybe they want to talk about our vacation plans this time?' guess I'm from. 'haha maybe you're right.' Said Vidri gnash while scrambling my hair that I decompose loose. 'hey, you are, my hair is already tau tau tau tau,' I said while rearranging my hair with a frown decorate my plain face. 'get out, gone, I love seeing you angry like that, it makes me mad at you, you know? Hahaha' this time he pinched my cheek with his left hand. 'aaww. ish you're' I muttered, seen Vidri just grinning and chuckling.

We went through this journey with our laughter. At first, Vidri and I were friends until then…

Flashback ~

Vidri and I were in the school library. As usual he taught me about math.I was weak in math. Vidri was always patient to teach me mathematics. Eventually I also put my feelings on him.

After two hours of study with Vidri. Vidri and I are getting ready to go home. 'Ra, I'm kebelet can you wait for me for a moment?' he said as he smothered his crotch. 'yeah, you're this but, hurry up it's gonna rain soon.'

After Vidri went to the toilet, drizzle began to wet the earth. 'it was raining' I said looking out the window. My mind was empty no matter what I was thinking, I calmly looked at the crying sky.

'yahh, is it raining? Was I that long?' Vidri came up with a lot of questions. 'sttt, shut up, I'm enjoying this rain, look. It's so calming, isn't it?' I heard nothing more from Vidri's mouth. When I saw that he was already next to me drifting in the rain this afternoon, he closed his eyes, facing the window. I see this man very calm. His face was very handsome from the side.

1 Min. 2 min. 3 min..

I don't know how much I've been staring at Vidri's plum face. I feel like I'm shivering. 'Vidri, the rain doesn't stop, how is this? It's almost 6 pm.' I look back at the window as if I did see the window from earlier. 'ah~ how about we stay overnight here?' he said he proposed that stupid thing with Innocent's mukan. 'are you crazy?' I said gasp. 'hahaha. anyways, isn't this school just us? Who are we going to borrow an umbrella for?' he said.' How about we rain.' Now I'm the one who's suggesting something stupid.What about our book? I don't want my math book to be ruined because we're playing rain.' He said while pointing to our bag that was still lying neatly, on the table. 'ha~ so much love are you in mathematics? yes, yes, gini. You still have bags at home, right?' I asked. 'still, ' he said, there was a look of cluelessness on his face. 'yes, now take out all the books in our bag.' Tell me as I begin to open the bag, and take out all the contents. I saw Vidri doing the same thing. 'then?' the question is plain. 'well, let's now put our book in the locker under the classroom table.' I said as I lined up all the stuff I took out earlier. 'oh~ I understand, ' said Vidri nodding.

After Vidri and I put all the stuff, we came out. 'are you ready?' I asked. 'of course, in the count of three huh?' he said while taking a swipe. 'okay 1.. 2.. 3!' I said then run as hard as I can. After reaching the school gate we set our breath. 'ha~ is quite tiring.' I said. 'huh yeah.' Vidri said laughing loosely. 'continue?' he asked. 'come on, but can we not run?' my question is 'okay okay.' Said.

Our house is only a few miles from the school. While Vidri's house is only a few blocks from my house. In the middle of the road we talked about many things.

'Vidri, may I ask?' ask me a doubt. 'may, but one question 5 thousand huh? Hahah' he said jokingly. 'ish, I'm serious Vi,' I said pinching his arm. 'aw, yes yes, do you want to ask what the hell?' he said, 'You're good looking, smart, well why don't you have a girlfriend? Though there are many women who queue up to be your girlfriend.' I asked. 'that's perfect for me?' Vidri asked back. 'ck, vi.' I looked at him marked I was seriously asking. 'yayay, I will answer. I actually have a woman I like, she really understands me, ' there's a pain, a pain in my heart when Vidri says that. 'oh yeah? Then, why? Is there a problem? Until you dare to shoot?' I force it like an enthusiasm. And you know? I was crying in the rain this evening. 'uhm, I don't know, I really wanted to have it, but I don't think she realized that I liked it. It's always him who makes me laugh because of his silly behavior.' He said he looked up at the sky that was starting to turn dark.Who is the woman anyway?' curious peaked. Vidri fell silent, then she glanced at me with a flat gaze, 'follow me,' Vidri pulled my hand while running. My tired feet were forced to run.

I was taken to a place, in the rain, the rain in our city is famous for its duration, the rain in our city can be 4 hours to 5 hours nonstop. This place was a vast meadow, which was filled with various flowers. This is my favorite place and Vidri since childhood, 'ah~ it's been a long time huh we're not here?' I asked him to lie down on the grass. 'yes, I thought you had forgotten about this place, ' said Vidri, hugging his knees as he looked at the rain falling tonight. I sat down next to him. 'What are you bringing me here?' I'm still wondering what it means to take me to this place.

'that woman, like a sunflower. Even though the night, he can still shine, wherever he is, I pray that God does not make him wither, ' he began to tell me, I understand he wants me to listen to what he reveals. 'his smile made me always want to make curves on his lips, that warm look, it felt like I wanted to have it myself, I don't know if he had the same taste or not to me. Who exactly are you talking about? My herself? But, maybe not, I'm not your sunflower. I'm not as perfect as you're talking about, someday if that woman has you, may you be happy with her. My inner.

'you know ra? She was so sweet, as she threw her bangs aside she was so enchanting to me. Although I was often so cute to her, when in my heart I was pounding when I was with her, ' I was flinching 'your sunflower is perfect in your eyes huh.' I said disconnected when Vidri said. 'yourself,' he said quick. 'ha? Whahuh? My herself?' I wonder. 'yes, my sunflower is you, who always shines even at night and your smile and gaze that I always wanted to have on my own.' I was still speechless, what was this feeling? Pleased? Sad or what?. I was still silent when Vidri went to pick up a rose. 'SunFlower, would you be my Girlfriend?' I was led to stand while Vidri knelt before me. I can only nod gently. Instantly Vidri stood up and jumped in joy. Then he hugged me warmly, let the rain tonight be a silent witness of the meeting of two fused hearts.

After a long time of silence under the tree, I shivered. 'Ra? You all right? You're hot, ' said Vidri holding my forehead.No, you're hot, too.' I said. 'yes let's go home it's already at half-eight in the evening, ' he said as he glanced at his black watch. 'yes it's come.'

We also run around lucky little rain has changed into drizzle. After arriving in front of my house. Mama who opened the door for me. 'Oh my goodness, Ara, where did you come from at this hour just came home? Uh, there's Vidri let's go in first Vi, warm yourself first, later the affairs of your parents aunty who takes care of' said mama rather bawel. 'yes aunt, thank you' vidri took off his shoes and came in.

'Vidri, there's still your shirt out of time here, you used to wear it?' said mama. Yes indeed at that time Vidri had stayed here. I told you, didn't I? Me and Vidri were best friends since childhood?. 'yes aunt, ' said Vidri.

we slept, I slept in my room and Vidri slept in the guest room. The next day, we woke up with a high fever. 'aha, you have a fever as well.' I said while carrying porridge for Vidri. 'yap, this is funny,' said Vidri. 'haha why?' I said as I closed the door with my feet. 'try thinking. After we were both together why was the first day even a fever?' he said, I saw his hands folded in front of his chest. 'huhah, you're this, that's it.' I said I put the tray with the food on the table next to the bed. 'let's go, it's time to eat, aaa' I said I started feeding it with a spoonful of porridge. 'wait, isn't today not a holiday?' he asked. 'my mom told our homeroom teacher that today was us, permission, ' I explained. 'what about our book?' he asked again, making my mouth again restrained. 'already, now your job is to open your mouth and eat this.' I said while stuffing my stifled mouthful from earlier in front of his face. His face was now full of porridge, 'hahaha your face is full of porridge.' My laughter exploded as I looked at her expression like a child whose candy was taken. 'now it's your turn.' she smiled evil, then poked the porridge on the bowl at my face. So? My face feels sticky now. I'll pay it back, until we go to war. Cklek. Turns out mama. 'Geez, what are you doing? Look at you, your face is full of porridge, now clean your face and eat right!' mama's word is creepy. 'good ma...' 'good aunt' said I and Vidri compact.

We went to the sink, 'this is because you know, ' I said blaming Vidri. 'because of you.' Vidri changed the blame. We looked at him and laughed. 'You guys, what are you laughing at?' my mom said from behind me. Eh? No. ' said we compact, we return the view. And laugh back. Mama who saw our behavior just shook her head in wonder. And we laugh more. What we laugh, let us only know.

Flashback end ~
