The Pole of Love
A Letter to the Stars
Jakarta, August 1999 ...
A magnificent house with everything that seems to support the comfort of the deceased person seems to stand firmly in an elite area in the capital.
"Where is ma?" A man with a body still strapping with his age was seen asking the figure of his son. The man appeared to be wearing only a plain shirt with sweatpants.
Her steps looked heavy and seemed to displace her legs and showed a little anxiety, but from a room there was a woman who shook her head to watch her husband's behavior.
"At least Pa's still sleeping." His wife answered very casually and now focused even more on the two cups of tea that he was stirring.
"He how the hell, how rich we are more enthusiastic with the results of the UMPTN announcement than the participants themselves who are still sleeping." Dumel her husband who felt unsettled because of will however and power of any amount that is the most important in supporting all assets and ownership as well as leadership and power the most number one is education.
"That letter is coming!" The wife seemed excited including the man who immediately rushed half to run towards the front, the two of them now appear to be racing as if what they will see is something they will only see once in their lifetime.
"Here's called Ma! He's in!" Now two people who initially seemed to compete even hugged and cheered with excitement between happy and proud the man made sure once again if it was true the name of his son but in view of how many times the results remained the same and that is clearly stated, A-Z-K-A-N and a determinative word L-U-L-U-S.
"We must wake Azkan he must see this letter." It seemed that the man was very excited but his wife interrupted.
"No need Pa, pity some nights he did not sleep to prove his ability. He didn't even use your power to reach UMPTN doesn't that mean he's amazing Pa?" The man finally nodded and confirmed what his wife had said.

There is a routine that can not be separated from the figure of Aylin he always flew lanterns when he was complaining, he said, he felt as he stared at the lanterns that flew into space and gave light to the dark of the night as if it was the same as taking him flying and alighting among the hoard of stars.
The star of the night seemed to trust brightly as if blessing Aylin's departure, he wrote something in a flying lantern and as if it had become a tradition he felt very peaceful.
Aylin's older brother Aiden once said that when you feel sad and can't say anything to anyone, the stars can listen to you, and that was the first time Aylin who was accompanied by Aiden flew a lantern and right as if his accumulated load had instantly disappeared.
And then Aylin watched the lanterns fly and continued to fly until it looked like a fragment of a star before finally disappearing among the thickets of night. In the letter written in the lantern, Aylin wrote a short letter containing two short lines.
Tang, yang,
Today I'm going to Bandung, I take my family? See you in bandung.

A boy with a handsome face but very red due to exposure to sunlight and too often play it seemed to rush into the front garden of his house before finally crashing into the big door and enter Inward, his voice shrieked until it seemed to vibrate the entire household that looked quiet and silent.
"There's." The boy seemed to breathe a long breath, until finally Amza appeared out of his hiding place.
"Well Ma, that's why Denis has so many fancies, right?" Denis seems to be hiding a red tinge on his cheek. Now he seems to be caught by the brother either a letter or a photo found by Amza.
"Yes, it's a good thing you're not here. Mama even seemed to be her personal receptionist every day to pick up the phone for her, and again the woman has to change constantly." Denis' face is getting red.
Mama looked at the two brothers who were adrift at the age of seven years had a lot of differences where Amza who preferred calmness, silence and introversion. And the other side of Denis is diplomatic, sociable and extroverted.
But even so Denis and Amza always protect each other and keep like a magnet where the two are attached to each other and difficult to separate, Denis who considers Amza as his idol and star number one while Amza who really likes Denis more than anything.
Denis is like a heartbroken man when he learns Amza will return to college in another city. Like when Amza had to go to school abroad Denis felt they had not had enough time to be together.
"Ma, I'm gonna skip school, okay? Just a day." Denis's face was made as adorable as possible. But an answer in the form of a headband has become a benchmark.
"Come on Ma." Denis hoped to be anxious before he had begged the father but the results remained the same he was not allowed.
"No, no, Mama told you to pick up your sister at the station." As if getting a gap Denis smiled sumringah.
"It's a coincidence that I also want to meet Kak Budi, can ya Ma?" His mother shook her head to see how the business that is now launched by Dimas.
"No, you have to go to school." Dimas clucked in annoyance.
"Ma, actually I also do not want how Budi's face. We were last seen in SD."
Amza smiled at her sister as she conspired.
"Mama has been the same pesen Budi make your name written, so even though you do not know each other but you must meet." The mother again denied how the compact reaction of the two brothers.
"Ma, why isn't Kak Amza in anterin straight away?" Denis seems to be getting weaker.
"So of course, your brother is unwilling and does not want to cause too much trouble later. She just wants to be a student and study there instead of looking for your rich boyfriend." Again Denis lost a landslide to his mother.
"Here Denis, you can also take your brother to the station right now, so now you better get ready and go take a shower." With a giant step, Denis finally climbed the stairs to his room and prepared to release back his idol to study and away from him.
