Between Love and Corona
First Meeting

Jakarta, 2014

At one of the Cipta Buana High School (SMA) in Student City, Yogyakarta. A new OSIS Chairman was inaugurated at that time in front of teachers and students during the Flag Ceremony.

Handsome man, who is the son of XI IPA 1 with all the charm he has as a handsome, smart, and rich student. Making Surya Dana Putra as a complete package as the new OSIS Chairman for the 2014/2015 term.

Head of Cipta Buana High School, loudly set Surya's inauguration as the new Chairman of OSIS Cipta Buana High School in the atmosphere of the Flag Ceremony on Monday.

“As the result of the election of the Chairman of OSIS conducted in the previous two weeks, so today I will appoint and assign Surya Dana Putra from Class XI IPA 1 as Chairman of OSIS SMA Cipta Buana for the period 2014/2015.” The Headmaster took a pause for a moment.

“As the Chairman of OSIS, Surya Dana Putra is expected to do his duties as the Chairman of OSIS which includes: leading the organization of OSIS SMA Cipta Buana well, coordinating all board meetings, etc, set the policy that has been prepared and planned by the board meeting, lead the meeting, and always coordinate with the Manager OSIS.”

Surya who was standing at that moment in front of the Headmaster took a solemnly prepared stance. Accompanied by the applause of the teachers and students, Surya has officially served as Chairman of OSIS Cipta Buana High School.

After the Flag Ceremony ended, Surya came to his best friend since he was in class X, Star Alan Pratama.

“Congratulations yes finally you have officially become Chairman of OSIS,” said Bintang while patting his best friend's shoulder.

“Thank you Bin, prestige did not become the Chairman of OSIS? What about lo?” Surya raised one eyebrow as he continued walking towards the classroom with the Stars.

Star momentarily put his shoulder, “Ya depends anyway. However, usually being the Chairman of OSIS is its own prestige. Especially the Chairman of OSIS Kayak lo. Surely the value of your branding is increasing among female students huh no?”

“Why the girls always pursue the Chairman of OSIS, whereas Ketos (short for Chairman of OSIS – will next be abbreviated Ketos) right also human,” said Surya with an expression that is difficult to interpret.

But in reality, in any school a Ketos remains the idol of the students. If Ketosnya man is definitely the schoolgirls who will idolize him, while if Ketosnya female then the students who will idolize him. As if this law applies in any school.

The stars smiled, your words just now were like a song. “Rocker is also human, but the word Rocker replaced the same Ketos. Can be aja.”

Surya chuckled at his best friend's speech, for him the stars are friends who do not talk much. Even stars tend to have a cold personality.

Like the two opposite names, the personalities of the two friends are also opposite. Surya is a high-spirited student, friendly, easy to get along with anyone. The presence of the Sun is like the Sun which radiates light and heat to the universe. While Bintang is a quiet man, reluctant to be seen in the organization, and also a loner in the classroom.

However, two people with different personalities actually become friends who fill each other.

"As Ketos focus on the same tasks you do so much. Responsibility to the Supervisor and School do not forget," said Bintang warned his best friend.

In the city of Jogjakarta itself, Angkringan (a place of various kinds of food and drinks on the roadside, especially in Central Java and Yogyakarta) is a hit place for teenagers, youth, and young people, up to adults to just gather while eating typical Angkringan menu that is cat rice, various fried foods such as Mendoan, Bakwan, Aneka Tujukan Sate like Sate Uus, Sate Ampela Ati Ayam, Sate Keong, and various other punctures, and various variants of drinks sold such as Tea, Coffee, to Ginger Clap.

"May, abis magrib yes. Where are you going to Angkringan?" Ask the Stars to Surya.

"Any Lek Man want to not? Kangen Kopi Joss (a traditional coffee dish originating from Yogyakarta. Black coffee mixed with sugar and hot water, then dipped in pieces of hot charcoal.) How about not?"

"Boleh deh, abis magrib ya meet there aja. Look out, don't be late." The star warns Surya so that his friend is not late.

Late evening at night in Angkringan Lek Man which is one of the legendary Angkringan in the city of Jogjakarta.

One that makes Angkringan Lek Man very hits in Jogjakarta is the serving of Joss Coffee which is a special drink menu sold there. The source of the oral tradition of some people in Jogjakarta, Lek Man is the Son of Mbah Pairo who is the first Angkringan merchant in Jogja that sells in the 1950s. Because of this legendary Lek Man Angkringan never deserted visitors. Plus the location is very strategic, near Tugu Station makes many tourists stop by for a moment in this Legendary Angkringan. And, it is in this legendary Angkringan that the Star has been waiting for the arrival of his best friend Surya.

As usual, the Star became the one who was always waiting for Surya. Although previously had been reminded that Surya did not ngaret (late), but in fact his friend was always late.

While waiting for Surya, Bintang has ordered Joss Coffee and some fried foods. The man sat on a mat held on the sidewalk. After almost 15 minutes, Surya revealed his nose.

"Sorry yes Bro, was asked to please nganterin Mbakku (a term for older sisters in Java) to the pharmacy to buy medicine" he said while sitting next to the Star.

"Hm-hm, the old song Sur .. It's also common if you like the dateng late." replied Bintang while sipping his Joss Coffee.

"Sepurane (sorry) yes, because Mbak asked for a sudden transfer as well. How's it been pesen?" Surya asked Bintang if his friend had ordered first.

"Here, wait for you to come to ngakik (become like agate)." he replied while giggling amusedly.

Surya and Bintang finally passed the night accompanied by Joss Coffee and various Angkringan menus that were in front of him. Talk about hobbies, school, and jokes. But both of them suddenly silent, stunned when a girl with the face of moonlight come to Angkringan it to buy a plump ginger wedang.

"Tumbas (purchase words in Javanese) wedang Ginger Gepuk one wrapped nggih Pak." The beautiful girl ordered a wedang Ginger Clap. His voice softened which made Surya and Star fascinated by his figure.

Who is that girl?
