Title: Dave Piano Chains


_________________________


On a hot day, Momo just came home from college. Arriving home, he immediately threw himself on the sofa of the living room. His favorite brown sofa. It was his favorite place to get rid of fatigue. The window that was right next to the sofa was always blowing a breeze, until Momo felt at home for a long time sitting there.


Momo was sitting on the couch for a few minutes and she heard the piano sound. Momo looked at the window. From the window, you can see the window next door. The Momo House with its adjoining house is bounded by a small garden. From the window of the house next door, Momo saw someone playing the piano.


A young man in glasses was seriously playing the piano. He looked down without looking at it. It seems that he really enjoyed his finger touch with the piano keys. Momo continued to pay attention, even though she did not understand what song was playing.


'Momo, what do you see?' ask Mama.


'Eh, Mama's'. That, there's another guy playing piano next door. Who the hell, Ma??'


'Oh, yes' Mama hasn't told me. That's our new neighbor. The guy's name is Dave, his father's name is Mr. Ronny. They just moved in yesterday. Later if there is time, you play to Dave ya''''' house''


'Ow'. Tomorrow, Ma' Ntar afternoon Adel will be here doing college assignments.'


'Eh, Mo' Dave is cute. Polite, cool, piano player again. Buruan.. Who knows if you're a good fit?'


'iiihh.. What the hell, Ma??' Momo immediately headed for the room. Mom smiled at her daughter's behavior.


At night, Adel is doing college work at Momo's house. They both sat on the sofa in the middle room. The piano sounds are back. Adel looked at the window. Dave plays the piano from behind his window.


'Haaahhh, who's playing piano next door?? Wow, that's really cool guy', ' Adel looked at Dave in awe.


''Ah, you are Del..! Don't know it yet, 'muji-muji, ' said Momo.


'Who is he, Mo??'


'Name's Dave. He's a new neighbor.'


'Dave's'.. Well, his name is as cool as his guy. Hehe''


'What the hell, Del..! That weird guy. All day playing piano..'


'Yes, maybe the profession is pianist. It's so fun playing piano. Try dehengerin..'


'Even, we chemistry students know what piano is about? Yes, continue doing it..' Momo and Adel return to work.


The next morning, Momo was leaving for college. Afraid of being late, he hurried out of the room. With a stack of books, he walked out of the house. Just arrived in front of the fence, suddenly BRAAKKK'!!!!! Momo hit someone.


'Aduuuhhh'.' Momo held her arm. He saw the figure that hit him, it was Dave!


'Ehm, sorry'., ' Dave was like a mess. He was hiding something behind his back. Momo immediately picked up her books that had fallen apart. Dave looked awkward and did not dare to look at Momo.


'Hey! Walk carefully dong!!' Momo looked at Dave. But the person who hit him has gone somewhere. Momo looks around to find Dave, but there's nothing. Where the hell is he?? Momo was very upset.


Arrive at the college'..


'Hay' Early in the morning already pouting?' adel asked astonished at Momo's attitude.


'Huuuuhhhhh'' Nyebelin really no guy!! I'm wearing glasses, I still wear them! My book is a mess! Don't want to help either!'


'Huh.. Who hit you, Mo?'


'No, the new neighbor, Dave!!'


'Well, you got hit by Dave?? Duh, I want to dong too''


'Who really is??!! I'm so sprained, you know! I told you, it's a weird guy!'


'Hhmmm' Angry just ama the Dave. He's cute, tau! That's what Dave did for me, right? Hehe''


'Please 'save! Take sono the Dave!'


'Okay' Ntar afternoon I'm going to his house, ' Adel smiled flirtatiously. Momo is getting upset with Dave.


One week later'..


These two days, there's no sound on Dave's piano. Momo was astonished. The neighbor's house is empty. Never seen Dave play the piano. Adel never told me about this strange guy. 'Nothing to do with me, ' Momo thought. Then Mama told me that Dave was sick with typhus. He's being treated in the hospital. Momo takes her to visit Dave. But Momo wants to take Adel along too. Momo called Adel.


'Hello, Momo.. What's up?' adel's voice after raising Momo's call.


'Adel, Dave is sick again! He's in the hospital. You don't look at him?'


'My mother said she had typhus. Ntar Mama wants to see him. You want to come too?'


'Ehmm' No, Mo.. You're the one who looked at him huh''


'Lho, why? Very tumbent, Del.. Aren't you fans of Dave?'


'Ehmm' Sorry.. No, Mo', ' Adel hung up. Momo was amazed by the attitude of her best friend.


Ever since Dave got sick, Momo felt guilty. During Dave's time as his neighbor, Momo was always upset and hated. He's never been to, not even Dave's sick he hasn't visited. Momo is disinclined to come alone without Adel. A few days later, Dave was home from the hospital. Coincidentally, Adel finally invited Momo to visit Dave. On a sunny afternoon, Momo and Adel go to Dave's house.


At Dave's house'.


'Hay, Dave'. Sorry, I didn't tell you before if I took Momo, ' Adel said.


'Oh, it's okay, ' Dave replied, 'please sit down.'


'Hay, Dave'. Is it healed?' Momo asked herself.


'Yeah, it's better. But it has not healed completely, ' said Dave, 'too diligent piano practice, until late to eat.' Dave, Adel, and Momo start talking. This was the first time Momo had noticed Dave up close. Dave still looks pale.


'Oh yes, Dave and Momo' Actually I have one intention of bringing Momo here, ' Adel said.


'What do you mean, Del?' ask Momo.


'I'm telling you' Actually, Dave likes you, Mo.. He's got your pictures, ' Adel approached a drawer in Dave's living room. He took out a few photos and placed them on the table. Dave and Momo were shocked.


'Adel, are you okay?' snapped Momo. Dave was just mute with a deathly pale face.


'Look at these photos, Mo..! This is proof that Dave likes you. As a friend, I support your relationship. Please get to know me more closely. I'll take my leave first. Bye', ' Adel smiled and left Dave's house.


'Wait, wait!! I don't understand, what does this all mean? Please clear it up, Dave!' momo Pinta.


'Sorry, Momo' I like to photograph you secretly, ' Dave said with a low head.


Momo looked at the photos. All the objects in the photo are themselves. Pictures of Momo on the terrace of the house, in the garden next to the house, and in front of the fence. All the photos are beautiful and natural. Momo was silent for a moment. Can't believe Dave could take such a good photo.


'What do you want, Dave? Why are you doing all this?' Momo doesn't understand.


'I just want to be close to you, Mo' It feels good to be watching you.'


'But that's not how it works, Dave! You are weird! I don't want you stalking me anymore with photos like this. Okay..! I'll take my leave!' Momo is leaving. Dave was silent.


A few days later'


Adel told Momo. When Adel visits Dave's house, he finds pictures of Momo on the table. Even Dave says he likes Momo. But Dave is the type of person who is not good at getting along so it is difficult to get close to Momo. That's why Adel took Momo to Dave's house. Adel says it all so Momo knows how Dave feels.


Ever since Dave's home, Momo's been feeling more guilty. Moreover, he said Dave was weird. Momo is worried about not hearing Dave's piano anymore. Is the pain getting worse? Momo fidgets erratically.


One afternoon, Momo heard Dave's piano. Momo looked at the window next door. Dave is playing the piano! Momo immediately ran towards Dave's house. Momo enters the living room and sees Dave sitting in front of the piano.


'Dave'!!' Momo called Dave. The glasses guy stopped his piano playing. He looked at Momo.


'Momo?? Hay'. What's up?' Dave was surprised and happy.


'Dave, where are you going? Yesterday I did not play the piano. You still sick?'


'Oh, relax.. I am well. Yesterday I went to the orchestra group. I just joined a pianist there. So, it will start to get busy with the performance schedule, Dave explained with passion.


'Oh' Thank goodness.' said Momo relieved, 'Dave, you don't eat too late again. I started work, I have to take care of my health.'


'Yes' Thank you for your concern, Momo'' Dave admired.


'Dave, sorry' All this time I've been too cute for you. I should've been more friendly to my new neighbor and could have understood your nature, Dave', ' Momo's sorry.


'Hehe' No problem, Mo' I'm as if we can get to know him closely, ' Dave said with a smile. Just this time Momo saw Dave smiling sweetly. So sincere and warm. Momo fascinated.


'Ehm' Dave, please continue to play the piano,' Momo realized and misbehaved.


'Eh, what if you join me playing the piano?' Dave invited Momo to sit down with him. Momo sat down shyly.


'I have to admit, Dave' You're a piano prodigy. Ever since you moved here, I've been amazed by your piano playing. Every day, I get used to hearing your pianom. Without the strains of your piano, it feels so lonely', Momo dare to be honest.


'I'm not good at talking or talking. With just the piano, I expressed my heart, ' said Dave and started playing the piano. The soft sound of the piano fills Momo's heart niche.


'Dave, I want you to play the piano. Always'., ' Momo muttered inwardly. Dave and Momo smiled together. Receive love between the two of them through the twang of the piano.
