Split To Be Together

Andre F Damanik Meeting Point

Maybe he could lie to someone else. But not with his heart. When the mouth says “No”, but the heart says otherwise. As determined as he was to stop thinking, the strength of his heart was stronger to always care. As fast as his feet stepped running away, his heart insisted on returning. Wherever he took his body away, even to hard-to-reach places, he felt that half of his heart was left behind.

After a long time Abel looked for Andre's place to live. It was in a tenement house inhabited by nomads. Seemed the lined doors limiting the boarding one with the other.

“Excuse me brother, I'm looking for brother Andre. Is this really the cost of Andre's brother ?”

“Ooh Andre's. Yes, this is Andre's boarding house. But back then when he was still an osis. Now he has returned to the village where he was born”.

A momentary state of silence. The sound of the motor horn

which broke the silence.

“You ready Andre ? Anything to tell Andre ? I happen to be Andre's neighbor in the village. And in the near future I will also go home kampung”.

“No brother, thank you. Sorry to interrupt the time. Then I'm sorry”.

Not really because of his feelings. It's just like sliced a sharp knife. His heart crumpled as if eroded by a wave that hit very fast. Even the sad word seems inappropriate to express it. If there were more words than that, Abel would probably have said them. What is the power of rice has become porridge. What he grieves, what he cries for, is of no use. Crying as hard as anything can not change the truth that he has now lost the figure he greatly admired with all his heart.

Not a hint of pleasure in his face. He wanted the night to go longer than usual. Abel did not want to set foot in a place that he thought was very historic. Because when looking at the seat at the stop, nothing else and not not, the shadow of Andre as if sitting in the chair that has been provided.

“You were the one who yesterday Andre came, right?”

“Emm, yes brother. Sorry, brother, I can tell

my school?”

“It so happens that I also go to school here, and just graduated. But because there is still something I have to finish, so I have not been able to leave this school or return to my beloved village”.

“I told Andre, apparently you two know each other. Andre said that you can call Andre to the previous number. He is the same, not changed. Or is there something you want to entrust to Andre ?”

Abel could not answer quickly the words of the man. It takes a process to express what he wants. Get the paper out of his bag. Paper that has been coated with a pink envelope that does not forget to close tightly as if no one should know the secret inside.

“Sorry brother, if I may want to leave this for Brother Andre”.

The letter given by Abel. And they come back with their own activities.

***

Slowly but surely, Abel tried hard to remove the wound that was scratched in his heart. Although it cannot be denied it is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand. He never showed a hint of sadness. So people thought Abel's life was very pleasant. It's okay, that's what Abel expected.

Abel has always been a star in his class. In addition to having a charming appearance, his intelligence adds to people's interest in him. Some are really interested in the personality that Abel has. There are also those who are interested in disturbing Abel's life because he feels jealous of what is in Abel. This semester he became the first champion of his class. Increasingly makes Gina feel rivaled and defeated by Abel.
