I seriously looked at my smoky breath from the air that was too cold. Even the thick jacket that wrapped my body I guess was still not enough to hit it.
“Cold?” Ask Clouds.
I'm nodding. Trying to hug my own body tightened the jacket.
“You wear my jacket?” Ask the Clouds again.
“Ha? No. gabe. No need. I'm fine.”
I spread my eyes around. It turns out that there are also many people who come to this Hill of Love. And they came here only to enjoy the golden twinkle of the morning orange. These people, willing to fight the cold air that reached 5⁰ centigrade just to see it. I'm getting excited.
“Ara. Come.” Take Fatih's Mom. I immediately followed him to climb the stairs leading to the best spot to watch the sunrise.
I was busy talking to Ratih's mother to the point of not not noticing that the Clouds were not behind me. Only after I got to the top did I turn my head and not find the Clouds.
I rolled my eyes to look for him. In the distance, the clouds appear to be running after us.
“Wans. We went there first, yes.” Pamit Mbak Ratih who is in the arms of her husband.
I saw the clouds just nod.
“Where to?” I asked as soon as the clouds got to my side.
“Hehehe. Here.” The clouds immediately drew me closer to him.
The clouds put a skull on my head. After that put thick gloves on my hands. I can't say. Just pay attention. That attention, again made my heart beat very fast.
“Still cold?” Ask Awan while fixing the skull on my head.
I'm shaking. My heart has spread warmth in every vein.
Our gaze met as I stared at the Clouds. I felt her hands cupping my ears and smiling.
“Yes geez. Beautiful..”.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. My blood is boiling. Especially when he saw her wearing the same skulls and gloves that I was wearing.
“Come, we find the best place.” Take the Cloud that immediately drew my hand.
I'm still thinking. Why is it that when I am with him, I can't get along at all? I accepted every treatment of him to me. Whereas when with Yuta, I firmly set limits for the man.
But with Clouds, I'm like a buffalo on his nose. He said without protest. Accept all treatment with open arms.
“This is it, yes?” Ask Clouds when he has found the place he thinks is most fitting.
He did not even wait for my answer and directly pulled my arm and placed me before him. Being with her really does put my heart at risk.
I put my stomach in the guardrail. My heart really cannot be controlled. Moreover, the Cloud stood behind me with both hands supporting the fence beside me. It was like locking up my position to not move anywhere. He protected me from the crush of the crammed visitors.
About, do the Clouds know that my heart is in a shoe? Hopefully not.
“See it.” The clouds are right in my ear.
I looked far ahead. There, a golden orange tinge began to appear and formed the silhouette of a mountain.
“You take a picture?” Ask the Clouds again. I looked to the left and right sides where people started taking out their phones and cameras to capture the moment.
“No. I'll take a picture of it inside my head.” Say again.
Actually, I don't want to be tied to the memories with the Clouds. What is going to happen in the future is still unclear.
“Yes, I think it's much more lasting. I like your style.”
I just smiled. The clouds know it or not.
“You know why this place is called love hill?”
I'm shaking. “Why?”
“Citizens here believe that this hill is the meeting place of Roro Anteng and Joko Seger.”
“Who are they?” I listened to him enthusiastically.
“Only two lovers who love each other. The myth, if a couple comes to this place, their relationship will last until old age.”
But we're not lovers. I murmured in my heart.
“I like you. That's why I will continue to show my efforts. You don't have to ask.”
“Awan, i..”.
“Do not interrupt. Justjust listen. I will continue to pray that I will be your soul mate. I will continue to ask God that no man be worthy to be your husband, other than myself.”
“It's okay. We just live as we are now. Enjoy the feeling of not having to be tied up in a status.”
The clouds understand how I feel. I don't even have to speak my mind.
There, far ahead, the sun slowly began to crawl up. Spreading its light throughout the universe.
Amazing views began to appear before the eyes. The hills amaze the eyes of anyone who looks. What I like is, a mountain that is the highest and the most backward. It looks so sturdy and charming.
“That's Mount Bromo.” Show Clouds. I just nodded my head.
“Then it?” Point me towards the mountain that looks the highest.
“That's mount Semeru. The peak is called Mahameru.”
I look at everything I see and feel. Cold air, stunning mountain vistas, and Cloud speech. I keep all of that in my heart. In the most special corner.
“You want to go up to Mount Bromo?”
“Bby.”
“But later only. Wait a little hot. It's still too cold.”
“Where Did you Train?” I switched the conversation as the Clouds pulled both of his arms from beside me. I could breathe a sigh of relief.
One by one the people around us started to leave.
While I still want to look at that scene for longer.
“Tell more about Joko Seger and Roro Anteng.”
“Hahahahah.” The clouds moved to my side. “You can search it on the internet. There is any information you need.” Cloud Eagles.
That's because he doesn't know much about the story either. That's why he said that.
“When did you return to Jogja?”
“besok afternoon. Want to come home with me?”
I immediately shook my head. I have to set some boundaries. We spent enough time together today.
“Did you come here by yourself?” I finally asked that. I've been curious since yesterday.
“No. I came with my parents of course. Wh why? May I introduce you to them?”
“No, no. Next time just.” I-i refused. “Do you stay at the hotel?”
Clouds nod. And I don't have any more material to talk about.
“Ara?”
“Hem?” I looked at him. The man, looking focused, looked far ahead.
“I hope you don't forget what I said. I'm really sincere about my hope.”
Why does he have to talk about this again?
I dare not react to his words. From the beginning, I had already made it clear that I could not accept it at this moment. I don't want to swallow my own saliva. Pulling out the words and commitments I said with my own mouth. I'm not gonna do that.
I'm just going to enjoy my feelings right now. Admiring Clouds
without boasting. Maybe you think I'm bad for playing games
cloud Feeling.
For one thing, I never played with his feelings. I
firm with my decision. And he knows it.
Even if he keeps giving his feelings to me
he knows that, what can I do? I can only accept his attention for
appreciate feelings.
