The Story of a Broken Man

83. Dialogue Towards the Rising Sun

Midnight on the mountain it was cold . Joseph felt soon he would freeze there so much that he was not usually at the top of the mountain. While continuing to hold the cold, faint he was like hearing the sound of gamelan on the table. There was also the faint sound of people partying.

He was eager to know the crowd, but he canceled his intention to get out of the tent where he is now. He remembered the words of his friend who seemed to be sleeping. He said, do not even approach strange sounds, or later even dragged into different realms.

He said there was a friend of his who went missing in the mountain after he deliberately followed the sound of music . After a few days, he was found like someone who looked confused. Joseph laughed at him when his friend told him the story. But now, inevitably, he wants to believe. He paused his intention to heal his curiosity rather than disappear for days.

He could barely sleep last night. He kept thinking about the voice that kept teasing him to approach. Luckily after he was able to calm his mind, he was finally able to sleep as well.

"How was it last night in the mountains?" at the sight of the new dawn coming to greet her bashfully, the friend said.

"How do you feel? it's kind of weird . I was listening to the sound of people playing that music last night. I don't know why it feels so cringe ."

"Look, I'll get used to it too. I used to like that, too, but because I usually don't care anymore."

"Hmmm, how is it? I don't know the definition of love. You think?" holding a glass of warm milk coffee his friend asked.

"I don't know either. After all, I have failed several times in love affairs. Whether it's because of a friend or something else. I didn't even know if I could get married or not. I just wanted to give up, but I really wanted to have my own family" Yusuf said.

"I get it, I think so too. But what do you want again? we are men whose hearts are broken by love. The difference is that you left him alive" he then went back to drinking a glass of milk coffee in his hand.

"I've heard of couples who die together in a hotel because of their love, he said not sanctioned by their families. It happened not long ago, and again one of them was my own neighbor," continued his words.

"I wanted to die because I wanted to kill myself . But that goes against his goal of wanting to see me have children and live happily. Although he tried to accept himself who no longer had a uterus, but in fact he could not accept it at all."

"Hmmm, I think we better discuss something else. Speaking of ginian, it feels like it makes you sad."

"Look down, I tried not to be sad. I am ready for the path he chose. How it was his decision. Just looking for a replacement is not easy. Many are indeed beautiful and interesting, but the name of the feeling can not be lied to, ' he said while looking at the sunrise is so beautiful.
