The Desire Tarnished

The Desire Tarnished
The beginning of a meeting



He retraced his feet in the city where the first cry of a human boy named Wine Stefany was heard. There's a wonderful memory of still-little Wine here. Megapolitan city which is not fresh air but refreshes the memory of Wine in the figure of someone who so longed for. That figure had long since caused his heart to tremble and it was as if a secret had been deliberately sealed from him.


"But, in this town I lost you!" wine said as he swept away the grains that fell on his cheek.


Didn't feel like almost 3 Weeks Wine was in town. He rented a boarding room, not far from the campus, where he wanted to continue his education. Indeed, the atmosphere of the city is a little foreign, the people look more indifferent and unfriendly, the, rather than the time he was in the city where he grew up but climbed every morning since living in the city and get used to it to make things easier. And his steps were not stopped by a memory. Now his determination was unanimous he wanted to continue his studies in the city, living away from his family.


At exactly 8:00 a.m., Wine arrived at a top university in the city to see the graduation announcement. So many activities on campus that morning, where the day was the announcement day of the graduation of new students/wives. Graduation announcements are affixed to each classroom door so Wine must see each announcement posted, moving from one class door to the other, carefully Wine looks at the names listed.


"Yes, I graduated!" exclaim Wine while turning his body to give room to others who want to see the graduation announcement. Wine accidentally collided with someone.


"Ouch!" wine shouted in pain, while holding his head stepping away from the crowd.


"Sorry, are you hurt ?" ask someone in front of him.


Wine held his head up to look, who greeted him?


"Include my name Melda" he said, extending his hand.


"Oh.it's okay!" my name is Wine while shaking that hand back.


Suddenly they laughed, looking at the clothes they were wearing at the same time.


"Hey, we're wearing the same clothes!" he shouted while laughing.


"Yes, Wine, we have the same taste."


"You're a new student at this college too?"


"Yes, I just saw the graduation announcement" Wine replied.


"What class are you in?"


"class A" replied Wine.


Means we are class classmate Melda exclamations someone new Wine knows.


"Oh.ye see you tomorrow!" while stepping away, the new friend waved his hand and Wine returned the wave and still stood and looked until the figure of the new friend he knew disappeared from his sight.


This is the beginning of the story of the meeting where Wine became acquainted with Melda. Now the bond has been running for 3 years and became a bond of friendship of two human children who were met accidentally.

"Wowwww, it's so bright!" the little leg ran to and fro in the moonlight.


"But, look there!" while still continuing to run, it approached the figure of someone who then reached out both strong hands embracing the little girl and carrying her.


"Do you want to be like that moon, baby?"


"Yes papi, replied Wine."


"You must find your sun so that you will always be beautiful" the remark woke Wine from her dream. His chest felt tight and sweaty.


"Lord, why is that figure always present in my dreams?"


Wine sat leaning on the edge of his bed and then he got up from his bed, stepped into the bathroom to wash his face.


Tok tok tok tok


"Who?" Wine shouted from his unclosed bathroom.


"That very morning you came" said Wine as he opened the door to his room.


"Indeed not to?", Melda immediately splashed his body on the mattress.


"Today there's an economics math test 2, you don't know?" ask Melda


"No, replied Wine while shaking his head.


"I haven't studied and don't understand, surely my grades ruined this semester!" he said while showing his best friend's face.


"Jawab all you can!" sahut Wine's.


"Hey, I'm not like you!" said Melda. You're smart and you're a star on campus, I have nothing to do with you Melda said.


"You can do it!" I must have helped you Wine said.


"Is wine really ?" sahut Melda holding Wine's hand.


"Yes, but you have to study harder!" said Wine.


"Okay, I promise!" sahut Melda hugging Wine.


Suddenly, Melda's attention was on the wine face that looked damp with slightly swollen eye bags. Melda looked at Wine more closely, there was something different than usual.


"Wine, did you cry?" melda asked as she revealed the bangs covering Wine's eyes.


"Come on to tell me" said Melda as she drew Wine's hand.


"Lately you've looked moody and more reserved!" said Melda.


"Hey, aren't I quiet?" Wine smile.


"No, to me you look different!" exclaiming Melda.


"Please, dong's story?" said Melda seduced like a child but Wine seemed to not care about her best friend.


Wine stood in front of the glass and then began to apply powder on his face and a touch of Lip Gloss on his tiny lips, then tidied up his clothes and rushed to pick up his favorite Slip On shoes from under his desk.


Wine held the bag on his left shoulder while locking the door of his room then descended the stairs in a hurry. Melda walked behind her. All the way to the Wine campus was silent. Melda noticed Wine was very different from usual. He walked faster while throwing a glance at a street hawker place crowded with visitors.


"Wine, Watch out!" melda shouted while pulling Wine's hand.


A speeding motor almost grabbed Wine's body, and Wine was shocked as his hand was pulled violently by Melda.


"Thank you, Melda!" wine said while hugging his best friend.


Melda walked while holding Wine's hand, as soon as Wine let go of the handrails and walked a little run, her attention was fixed on a black car parked on the roadside in front of the campus. Wine looked around the sidewalk, as if he was looking for someone. Melda tried to approach while patting Wine on the shoulder.


"Wine, what are you looking for?" soon the exam will start, Melda said.


Wine was silent and did not answer his friend's question, then the two friends crossed the road to the campus gate but Wine still threw his gaze back until finally Wine's hand was pulled by Melda. They finally walked hand in hand towards the class where the exam would soon begin.


The incident made Melda worried about what was really being thought and what was being sought by Wine earlier.
