Calmly Gilang looked at the beautiful face of Sovi, beautiful thin smile and beautiful eyes. At that time there was a youth study in a mosque. It was so fun Gilang looked at Sovi's face, to the point that Gilang did not remember that it was in the study.
“Lang, from earlier I saw you smile for yourself, you see who the hell?” asked Andre who immediately spread Gilang's gaze.
“Yah you Dre made me wake up from the beauty of my daydreams only.” Gilang also replied with a slightly annoyed face.
“hehe Lang, you see Sovi huh cieeh do-don't you have a crush on her?” ask Andre again with his lake log.
Gilang just nodded while smiling embarrassedly.
“Udah dong natap dianya, tuh dengerin pak Ustadz!”, reprimand Andre again.
Gilang also obeyed what Andre said listening to the lecture of Mr. Ustadz. Who was supposed to listen to Mr. Ustadz's lecture, instead of stealing time to look at Sovi's face. Gilang cleared the book, because the time for prayer and study was over. All of them set foot into the mosque to perform congregational prayer. Gilang did not miss going to the mosque. After praying, Gilang rushed out of the mosque, but did not go home immediately because there was need with Sovi.
“Lang wait for who. How not to go home, huhuy?” ask Andre while he is snoring.
“I'm waiting for someone I've been waiting for a long time later” said Gilang reassuring. Finally someone who Gilang later from earlier came out as well. Gilang's heart pounded and pounded even more as Sovi began to come out of the mosque. Gilang also ventured to greet Sovi.
“Hai sov, want to go home?” Sovi replied in her jutek tone while throwing her face out of front of Gilang.
“Yes I want to go home, I want to go”
Calling it all right, Sovi replied rather casually. If Sovi is asked of others, he always answers correctly according to what is asked. But why Gilang's turn, Sovi even ignored. It felt that every time Gilang approached Sovi, Gilang could no longer withstand the turmoil of his heart, as if the feeling buried in the heart was accumulating more, and could no longer tolerate Gilang. Every day passes the same. Without any change in Sovi's attitude towards Gilang.
“Sovi, if you know, the feeling that is in this heart I can no longer bear, I would like to express my heart. Why do you never give me the opportunity to approach you, to get to know you more” Those are the words that have always been in Gilang's mind.
He said he was unyielding, so he would definitely continue to fight to get Sovi. From Sovi's attitude to Gilang, that's what attracted Gilang to him. Indeed Gilang likes to be aware of himself with his mediocre face, daring desperately to get Sovi. Guys who like the same he whose face is more cute than Gilang alone has been rejected, let alone Gilang. Because it's not Gilang who likes Sovi, but there are still many other guys who like him. Sovi Meamang always jutek and cuek at the guy who tries to approach her. But Gilang felt his attitude to Gilang was different and more ugly than to other men. For example, one of his Junior High friends who likes him, who is indeed Gilang also recognizes him. From Junior High until now he still likes Sovi, but there was never an answer “Y” thrown from his mouth. Sovi always rejects the love of Deni who has repeatedly shot Sovi.
“Even if you only show your jutek face, I am willing and I will still try to melt your heart” again Gilang said inwardly.
Gilang tries to greet Sovi, although the reply is always painful.
“Hai Sov, no time to go home later?” he was teaching 1st grade. Sovi nicely replied “gak no”.
Gilang also continued the question “When do you have time for me, I need the same you?”.
Sovi replied with a cynical smile “1000 years again”. Gilang no matter Sovi will answer casually, the important thing is to try to get close to him. Sovi is still in Class 2 High School. Gilang is working. Because the school only Gilang only until the 1st grade High School. At school Gilang can be said to be a bad boy, because he always skipped school. In one week there is always the letter a (alpha) coloring the absent book. Sovi is 4 years younger than Gilang.
A year already Gilang harbored his feelings, how heavy his raasa bear the burden that more and more heap. Now Sovi is in Class 3 High School.
When the sun began to show its light, Gilang rushed to work. Before leaving Gilang stop by at the Bu Ima stall to just enjoy fried food and a cup of hot coffee. 10 Minutes later, the figure of Sovi and her friend who will go to school. Gilang immediately approached him afraid that Sovi was getting further and further.
“Sov you class 3 what?” ask Gilang even though he already knows his answer that must be painful. At last my guess was not wrong.
Sovi replied “Class 3 Z”. It always hurts to ask him.
But what to say Gilang must keep trying. On the way, Gilang just fun joking with his friend Fita, but nothing than Gilang just silence crying over his stupidity. Every day Gilang can leave with Sovi also Gilang feeling was very happy.
Days change, months change, it doesn't feel so fast. Gilang is very grateful because Sovi's attitude to Gilang has increasingly changed not so jutek as before. Every day Gilang together with Sovi and can joke with Sovi.
“Yes God, is this a dream? Do not let You wake me from this beautiful dream of mine”, the words that cross the mind of Gilang as if in disbelief.
The next day, as usual Gilang waited for Sovi in the shop Bu Ima. Soon, Sovi arrives with Fita, but, unlike usual, Sovi runs away with Fita when Gilang approaches her. Gilang felt that he had never done anything wrong with her, but perhaps because he did not know that from his words there was someone who touched Sovi's heart. Only a few more steps Gilang can get close to Sovi, but the moments that awaited instead go and just disappear. I can't believe why this has to happen. Gilang had not been able to talk to Sovi for a few days, and indeed if asked why Sovi always avoided Gilang, Sovi never answered. It's been a long time since Gilang met Sovi. Especially now that Sovi was busy with her Exam preparation. To the extent that the students of Sovi's youth were never present again. Now Sovi is in 3rd grade, but Gilang does not know where Sovi will go to college.
“4 years already Gilang harbors a taste in Sovi. Only the attitude that Gilang felt. And can't do anything because Gilang does not know now Sovi is where” is said Gilang as if no longer able to survive without Sovi. Andre said, Sovi continued his studies in Bandung, he lived with his brother. Andre knows from Fita his best friend from childhood, Fita is Andre's brother. Gilang can only imagine Sovi's sweet face and just daydream and daydream about Sovi. Gilang thought about when will meet again with Sovi, because it has been 2 years Gilang did not meet with Sovi. Miss Gilang has been very long wanted to express to Sovi.
On Saturday night, Gilang and the children celebrated Bobi's arrival from Jakarta. Andre told me he had a new Sovi HP number.
Gilang replied with a face of disbelief, “Wah, the real one? you know from whom?”. Andre again forwarded “From Fita”.
Soon Gilang immediately memijit number Hp that will connect it with Sovi. Finally Gilang could listen again to Sovi's voice. It's been a long time since Gilang has waited. Now Gilang can call and text ama Sovi. It turned out that when Gilang called Sovi, the words he said were not the same as before. The words that came out of his mouth were more polite. Missing was unexpected, and did not want these moments to disappear for the second time.
In one of the short messages known as SMS Sovi said.
“Lang, I ask maf for the attitude of ak first, ak jg ngrasa klo skp jutek ak maybe dah bwt km akan”.
Gilang also directly string the letters strung word by word to reply to the text.
“Ak sorryin km ko, Sov, kpn km plg, ak want to meet km, cz dah 2 yrs qta do not meet”.
Sovi also returned to reply to Gilang's text. “Sorry Lang, this week ak ga plg, later klo ak home ak ksh tao km”.
Glad Gilang can smsan with Sovi. Sms for sms often Gilang send just to ask the news. He said this week Sovi came home.
“Sov, can we meet tomorrow?”. A series of letters typed by Gilang for Sovi.
Sovi did not escape to reply. “Aduh sorry bgt, ak ga bsa, cz ak cape bgt want to break”. Gilang also obey him not to meet, because another time might be able to meet.
Heavy rain soaks, with fun Gilang smsan with Sovi, “Sov, actually I have long wanted to express this feeling k km, tp bru skarg ak can reveal. I've liked the same km, I want tw gmn prasaan km to me? Whatever jwbn km ak accept with lpg dada”. That is the expression of Gilang's heart expressed in his short message.
Sovi replied, “Lang, maf bgt ak gda same feeling km, tp km not mrh y?, mang dr kpn km like me, n npa km can like, tp, pdhl skp ak k km first jutek bgt, n might it make km sick?”.
Gilang directly reply again sms Sovi “Ak dah 4 years harbored this same feeling km, from the attitude of km to me that is what makes me interested. Ak jg ga angry over your jwbn, I appreciate it, how km can like me, anyway ga dkt ama ak”.
The rain that was very heavy at that time seemed to cry for me who was rejected by love. Hikz'hikz's'
One day Gilang again texted him, “Hai Sov, pa kbr?, gi ngpain nih? Oia Sov, ak b'hrp km can like me walopun bkn now”. Somehow sms it ga dibls am Sovi, and at once as the last sms
