When Love Only Remains a Name

When Love Only Remains a Name
I'm Falling in Love




After arriving at the canteen. Love and Ivan chose the corner. The reason for choosing that place was because they could see the scenery from outside the window.


Love waved at Bik Imah, the canteen keeper. Bik Imah who saw the wave of Love's hand, immediately approached him. Not to forget he brought a note to record the food and drinks that they will order later.


"Bi I order Fried Rice and Cow's Eye Eggs." Say Love after bik Imah is nearby.


"Non drink?" Ask bik Imah.


"White water." Reply Love while looking at Ivan who had seen his face


"What do you want to order, Van?"


"I'm just like you." Ivan answered with a smile.


"alright. Bi Nasi friednya two, eggs eyes cow also but remember not too ripe ya bi eggsnya. The mineral water is also two. Okay, that's it. Thanks to bi." After finishing taking notes, bik Imah immediately went to prepare their order.


"Why are you van, seeing me all the time?"


"You're Beautiful, Cin."


"Don't muji, Van. I don't like it."


"Sorry, Cin."


"No papa, Van. But don't repeat it Van."


"Yes Cin, I promise. Oh yeah I can do something."


"May van, ask."


"Do you have a boyfriend?"


"Yet, Van."


"Why? I'm sure out there a lot of people want to be your girlfriend."


"I'm not ready, Van. I'm still not ready to date because I don't want to feel her name upset, broken heart, jealous and so on. I'm happy with what I'm doing right now. I am free to go with anyone and wherever I want. I can also focus on learning. Without having to think of a man who is not necessarily my soul mate. I'm young, I'm still thirsty for science. So I will not think about things that will prevent me from continuing to study. One day I will definitely feel the name of dating. But, I want to experience dating after marriage not before marriage. For now, let me be like this while improving myself. I want to be a woman worthy of my future husband. Is not the soul a reflection of ourselves?"


"You're right, Cin. I salute your thoughts.There are rarely women who have such thoughts especially in this day and age. You may be a very rare woman. What a lucky thing to be your husband."


"It's the van, don't talk about it. We enjoy what is there. Don't think about dating. High School has not graduated. Pity our hard-earned parents to make money for our educational expenses. We must appreciate their struggle by studying hard and collecting many achievements."


"You really, cin. But may I do it one more time. I promise, this is my last question."


"Have you ever felt in love?"


"Never before, Van.But when I met you earlier, I felt something was different. I don't know if it's love or just a sense of awe because you're too cool and handsome. But I don't want to think of anything like this."


"But you believe in Falling in Love at First Look."


"Yes, I believe." Love Saying. He is always open because lying is free.


Shortly thereafter, Bik Imah came with their order.


"Thank you so much." Say Love when you're done putting food and drink on their table.


"The same non. Auntie, excuse me." Bi Imah immediately left them because indeed he still had a lot of work in the kitchen canteen.


"Good meal, Ivan."


"Good meal, Love."


After eating, they headed straight for class. There Love and Ivan stand in front of his friend.


"Good morning, guys." Say Love in a rather loud voice so that all his friends look at them both. That is the way Love draws attention so that they all shut up and look towards her


"Good morning, Cin." Answer them all in a compact manner. Love is just smiling..


"Now you have new friends. His name is Ivan Setiawan. He's Mr. Kepsek's son. I hope you all accept Ivan to be your friend. Oh yes he moved from Surabaya. For those of you who still want to ask, you can just do it when the break time comes. For Ivan, you can sit in the back seat. Because that's the only seat that's empty."



When Ivan stepped into his chair, all the girls in the class looked directly at Ivan. Unlike the boys, their views still look towards Love.


Seeing Ivan already sitting, Love took a piece of paper containing a note from the beautiful ma'am. Love still stands in front of his friend.


"Today, Mr. Gudi did not enter." Say Love in a voice a little loud to take the attention of his friend again.


Love saw almost the whole class was happy to hear if the teacher did not come in. Sometimes love is surprised why they can be like that. They go to school to study. If there are teachers who do not enter, they should be sad because it means they will not get knowledge. But this is the opposite. Love just shook his head to see his friend


"But not entering does not mean there is no task. Mr. Budi has given you the task. For that, now open your respective LKS books. See page 25. You work from Chapter I until you're done. Remember that! When the break came, all the tasks were already on the teacher's desk. If there's something you don't understand, you can ask me. Now, you can just work on it." Say Love and sit in her chair. All his friends grumbled just because they got the assignment from Mr. Budi. But Cinta does not care, she just hopes all her friends are aware and can study like her instead of even come to school just to socialize, dating, dating, hang out and if the repetition arrives or at the love of the task even busy looking for cheat to his friend.


Ivan who saw the assertiveness of Love earlier, made Ivan increasingly want to know Love even further. Ivan felt the charm of Love had made him Fall in Love.
