The Love of Alika

The Love of Alika
The Eps 59



Being in the height of 150 – 200 Mdpl Mangunan Fruit Garden provides a strong attraction so that people will be willing to wake up at dawn and go down the quiet streets to reach the place.


Green mountain atmosphere, winding river valley, and the expanse of thick fog that makes Alika feel is standing in the land above the clouds - That is the reason Mangunan Fruit Garden is famous by the nickname of the Land of Clouds-Top.


Most people say, if it rains hard at night, then the next day this place will be filled with thick fog. Luckily, Alika was able to enjoy this rare sight. This cloudy morning still covered the sky, but the visitors were already busy with their respective camera lenses. Prepare to wait for the sun to rise.


    “Vin, did you bring a camera? Pinjem dong..”


    “Can only. Face here first!”


When Alika turned her face away, Alvin no longer wasted any time capturing the portrait of the girl he loved.


AZEKREEK !!! KEVIN !!!


    “You are classified as beautiful for the size of a girl without make-up, Al.” praise Alvin, this time the compliment is really sincere. There was no mocking tone as usual.


    “Only! Who gave you permission to make photos of people's children. Here's camera!” alika snatched the photo from Alvin's hand.


Alika turned back the results of the shot of a man who is currently trying to change his clothing style to look more mature. If usually Alvin always wore his pride clothes –color pants and t-shirts - this time the guy was wearing jeans ¾ and black T-shirts wrapped in khaki color shirt without hooking the buttons.


Instead of answering the guy instead rushed to Alika while turning the girl's body to face the east side which began to spray a golden color.


    “From many comments, mending you that photo there,”


Alika was stunned to see the sun slowly emerging from the eastern horizon with its golden radiance. Meanwhile, the lagit that slowly loses its cloud gives a charming blue effect. Reminds the girl of the sunrise she's met before.


But this time it's a little different. The greenness of the mountain range and combined with the white effect of morning mist provides a cool and fresh blend. It is not wrong if a place as beautiful as this is called the Amazon. Like being in a race, the sound of camera shots began to sound interconnected. Likewise with Alika who does not want to miss to capture the natural panorama.


Satisfied to enjoy natural attractions that are rarely found in big cities, Alika and Alvin went from the top of Mangunan to return home.


Today Alika is grateful to be able to start her day with something good –unlike the usual days that she often passes with misfortune-, because the atmosphere of the morning is usually one of the determining factors of a person's mood for a full day. If the morning has passed perfectly, eighty percent of the day will also be pleasant.


After passing the morning with something fresh, Alika enjoyed her trip home with a laugh with her cousin. The stiffness between them slowly melted away. Alika can again find the silliness in Alvin as when they first met.


No one else was depressed by the circumstances that night. Alika and Alvin can come back to joke like brothers. And all the jokes that make them not aware that the motorcycle they ride has delivered them to their destination.
