When Love Comes Again

High School Student

The sky that afternoon turned gray and blackened. Slowly the rain drops wet the city of Denpasar, as if holding them both even longer. While enjoying a cup of hot tea and cake at the cafe next door.

"You're still in school, Del?" Dicky started the conversation.

"Yes, Sir. Second grade High School."

Suddenly the hot coffee in the gulp Dicky choked in the throat heard Adel calling him 'Sir'.

"Wow, don't call mr. dong. How old is so yes. What age are you, Del?"

"Sixteen years."

"Well, call me sister. Shame I was called sir. The effect is like a son of the father mnya. I've only been twenty years. It's only 11 years apart. Don't be in old-tuain dong."

"Yes, brother," answered Adel briefly.

"You don't seem to be here, Del."

" Yes, Brother. I went to Bali to study at my school. Tomorrow morning we leave for Jogja before returning to Depok."

"Gee .... Happy yes, school holidays with friends to Bali."

"Sister Dicky, on vacation or honeymoon in Bali?"

"eeh? A honeymoon? Was .... I have a little business here. Work affairs. I'm still single, Del."

"Where does Dicky's brother work?"

"Prajamitra Corp at Jakarta headquarters."

"Hmrs .... The largest import export company in the country. If it's not wrong to be included in Kapuas Gala Group huh, sister?"

"You know a lot about her looks, too. You must be a smart kid" Dicky smiled at Adel who was sitting blushing in front of him.

This little sixteen-year-old girl had just taken the 11th grade, her face was round oblong. White skin clean. His eyes are black glowing. His manner of speaking was gentle and polite. Dicky's eyes were full of probes looking at Adellia. It seems like I want to get closer to him. His mind says that he and Adel have a strong bond.

There grew a sense of affection and wanted to protect this little girl in his heart. This gentle feeling is very different from how a man feels about a woman. But Dicky doesn't know what it is.

Since his meeting with Adellia in the city of Denpasar, Dicky began to intensely contact Adel after they exchanged mobile numbers. Rarely is there a woman close to him, maybe he is typical of men who do not care about women. Since losing his mother 17 years ago, Dicky has devoted himself to the job. It was not that there were no beautiful women nearby, it was just that he did not want to pursue love too much. He believed that if the time was right the love would come.

Dicky's closeness to Adel is like a brother to his sister. Understandably Dicky only lived alone with his Papa. According to her Adel is a typical girl who is jolly and intelligent. Her smile was sweet and simple in dress, yet it always looked so graceful and charming. Different from any woman he has ever met. Adel is able to rekindle Dicky's life.

"It's a different love. A different kind of affection. I need to know who he really is. If my guess is correct, ahh .. I hope it is true. Then everything will be whole that was lost first."

Her mind floated, staring at a piece of the worn-out photo that was always in her purse. The tightness of his chest made him almost shed tears, but again his selfish and masculine attitude was against. Abstinence for him to cry, he's a man.
