Trying Again to Love You

Trying Again to Love You
Meet again with you



" Dev.. Dev.. Get up". (while banging - gedor Devi's room door very tight ).


" Kiki.. !! really noisy, just go in, the door is not locked, then who says I'm sleeping again?, a really bad habit. (with a loud shout and a little holding back emotions).


" Hehe.. I think you're sleeping Dev, Uda come with me ". (while holding Devi's hand and pulling - nariknya with hard ).


" Geez Ki, where are you going ? don't see what, I'm doing ". Today I got some batik orders from mom subscription, because mom is old, usually if the order is too much. I also helped mom finish some orders, too, from childhood, my mother taught me how to batik, although not as good as my mother, at least enough to help my mother.


" Uda. later again aja ngerjainnya, ntar I help you hold the batik deh ". (laughs loosely ).


" Newborn babies can also be held by Ki batik, really rest, yadah ayok.emang we go where the hell ? ".


" Nanya mulu, I want to take you to daddy's gallery. Males met his own father, afraid of being asked about college, hahaha.. ". Kiki is not too happy with the academic world, he prefers to learn something directly, even arguably this child rarely goes to college, if not in the cafeteria chatting here and there with the seniors, most also just hanging out in front of Galery campus.


" okay.okay.. But do not be long yes, afternoon Uda must return, keep your promise will nemenin me overtime ngerjain my batik order to be ".


" Commander Ashiaapp, I've given you 5 minutes to be ready - yes, don't take a shower, don't change that face either". (turning to the exit of the room while continuing to talk).


" Whatever.. ! ". (shut the bathroom door ).


I'm lucky to have a close friend like Kiki, besides being able to get a car to and fro, Kiki is also the person who cares about me the most besides father and mother, almost every day he never absent to my boarding house, even though on campus we must also one class.


The journey from my boarding house to Kiki's father's Gallery is quite far, the Gallery is located on the border of Bantul and Sleman, if using our car takes about 45 minutes, if using our car takes about 45 minutes, while Kiki's own house is actually only 15 minutes from my boarding house. Kiki's father bought a large enough land to be used as Galery, he spent more time in Galery than in a private house.


While listening to music and talking with Kiki in the car, it did not feel we had arrived in front of Galery his father. from the front right next to the fence entered Galery, Galery, there is a small gazebo to sit - sit back, enter a little inside we will be greeted with a magnificent joglo made of teak wood complete with carvings. Galery is also very shady, a lot of protective plants there, not to mention ornamental plants that are deliberately arranged neatly.


If I see a place like this, I think I immediately remember my father at home. You are eager to have a place like this, I can imagine how the father arranged this place in such a way, put his gamelan set in the joglo area so that it can be directly seen by the guests who come, and the, inwardly whispering, "Patience sir, if I were a person, I would wake the father of a place like this ".


" Why are you talking ? drunk vehicles, catch a cold.Jeez Dev don't be like a hard man ". Another thing I like most about Kiki, she's a very humorous person, being around her I always laugh, amused by her jokes, until - until I can't remember if we ever fought or not.


" Yes, but watch out, if I'm your shield, that's a hell of a bitch.. Haha.. ". (return to Kiki's joke).


" Hahaha. you know, no, most not if what nanya's father, you answer well yes, watch out for you ". (pointing at Devi).


" Well.came him ".


Kiki and I walked into the living room, in contrast to the house in general, Kiki's father Galery, had the living room was the very back, after the joglo, we would enter the door to the showroom, and then we would go to the door, it is not so big, but enough to display about 25 medium-sized paintings, after passing through the showroom, on the right side there is a fish pond on top of which is also placed a small gazebo to sit - seated guests.


From here you can see the living room and the pile of works, on the left there is a mini garden that is arranged so beautifully. I myself will be very at home alone in this Gallery, then on the right side of the living room, there are two bathrooms and a mini kitchen, a clean kitchen that is only intended to arrange ready-to-eat food and drinks, although there is a small stove set but it seems only used to make coffee.


" There's a guest like Dev, who's that dad talking to ? ". From the fish pond, Kiki's father was sitting in the living room chair holding a guitar with one man, facing Kiki's father, turned his back on me and Kiki, and he was holding a guitar with one man, the sound of rock music was loud, almost inaudible to the voice of Kiki's father and his guests.


Actually I just want to sit - sit enjoying the atmosphere of Galery in the front joglo, but Kiki forced me to come inside, we then stepped closer to Kiki's father and his guests, Kiki said, I had wanted to prevent Kiki from delaying meeting her father until the guest came home, but Kiki said that it seems that it was just a regular guest who visited to talk about ordinary things.


" Well, lessin is the volume of the music, very noisy ". (Kiki's Law ). I'm still staring behind Kiki's father's guest


" Eits. Uda's father's son came, please you reduce the volume of music son, same Devi yes.. ". (while putting the guitar in the hand, put it to the side of the chair ).


" Here Dev sits, how are you ? salutary.. ". Like Kiki, her father was very kind and humorous, although only the second time I met him, but it was not so awkward.


" Yes, thank you ". go straight to the empty seat, right next to the guest.


" yeah, Kiki.. Devi.. know this temen father, this temen om, son of rock music, more precisely a lover of rock music, the same as om ". (while pointing towards the guest ).


" Ras, this is son om, his name is Kiki, this is his friend name is Devi, you have never met Kiki huh ? Every time you come here, Kiki has never been ". (while pointing towards me and Kiki ).


I was silent for a moment, whether it was a coincidence or not, this man, the man I knew at the exhibition that night, the men I hit and accompanied me that night, even though we had switched phone numbers, but from that night on, there was no news.
