Between Love and Corona
Curhatan Men Galau

It is located on the shore of Losari Beach, Makassar. Surya was sitting together with Arunika. The man still could not hide the turmoil in his heart.

All this time, Surya was just silent and so passive. Even since deciding to pause his relationship with the Moon, all the man did was work, work, and work. Busying yourself in a job that is indeed being a lot of an escape for Surya.

While Arunika only put himself as a listener. "So, what else are you going to do?" ask Arunika just like that to Surya.

It is certain that Arunika knows that Surya is currently upset, the man is not excited, and his face is so tangled. Simply shows how great the turmoil experienced by Surya this time. Even the breath that is so heavy as to indicate that many things are being thought of by Surya.

"Right now .. I decided to pause first." said Surya by lowering his head.

As if in disbelief, Arunika also looked at Surya from the side. "You mean to pause, break for a moment?" tanyakanya.

The man's head nodded faintly. "Yes .. I decided to take a pause first."

"How long have you decided to pause?" ask Arunika quickly.

As if recalling, Surya replied, "It's been two weeks ...."

The man then smiled bitterly. "This month of Ramadan feels so heavy for me.The first time I feel the practice of fasting away from home and family. Fasting is overseas, and I have a long distance relationship, plus now my relationship is interrupted with the Moon" she said, occasionally rubbing her face.

It is true what Surya said, this Ramadan is indeed the first experience for him far from family and parents, being far abroad, being far away, and its relationship with the Moon is also at the tip of the horn. If indeed Allah is testing His servant, then this time Surya seems to be getting a test from Allah.

Exam by being alone in Makassar City without family and relatives. The test with his love problem with the Moon. All of those exams naturally made the man feel dizzy. It's just that sometimes a man is so good at hiding his problems. Choose to be quiet and act as if nothing happened. Though in his mind it was as if a time bomb was preparing to explode.

"Solarly News .. All problems of course there are solutions. I also did not think that the girl who had been liked by the Stars was the Moon. However, looking back it is not surprising enough. For once, I often saw how the stars looked at the Moon. From the view and look of his eyes alone it has been seen if the man loves the Moon very much. It was indeed a deep and sincere feeling, love in silence. Several years passed finally, Bintang dared to express his heart." story Arunika who apparently also noticed the attitude of the Star all this time.

Surya smiled wryly. "It means that I am the only one who does not realize how deep the Star feels for the Moon. I feel like I'm the dumbest guy, just looking at myself. And there was another man who loved so deeply the girl who is now my lover. My heart is very upset." I Surya that he is currently in turmoil.

"Patience .. I can only say that you are patient. Everything has its silver lining. However, if I may give advice, do not take too long to take a pause. Hanging up on a relationship is not good. Poor as well as the Moon, I know for sure there the Moon feels guilty on the one hand, but on the other hand it is certain he is also confused what to do. Standing between the uncertainties was extremely unpleasant. Because I felt it until finally my relationship with the Stars had to end."

Realizing that what Arunika said was true, Surya then weighed up should he immediately clarify the status of his relationship with the Moon. Re-examining his heart is there still love and trust for the Moon? Weighing back the heart that the two will both survive in a long distance relationship that does not know will end until when. However, on one hand the man felt pain inside his chest as he recalled the Moon's recognition that the Star kissed him. Of course Surya also thought that it was not just a kiss on the forehead, on the back of the hand, or on the cheek. The man thought that the kiss that the Star and the Moon did was a kiss on the lips. Imagining all that, the man felt a sense of remorse in his heart.

"If the plane has served the flight route, I will go home to Jogja, Nika .. It feels bad to decide something just by phone call. I'll go back to Jogja later and talk directly to the Moon. All at once, I want to see the Stars. There are many things I have to talk to him about." said Surya with a straight forward eye.

Arunika nodded faintly. "Well if that's what you want, I hope whatever your problem will be solved soon. There is no more conflict between you, the Moon, and the Stars." Arunika's hope in the end, she just doesn't want to have a showdown between the three.

Surya finally smiled. "Okay, okay .. Thank you for listening to me. At least I can share my excitement. Right now I'm really a bad guy" he said, chuckling.

Laughing at himself, admitting that he was a bad guy.

"Together Surya .. do not burden yourself too much and think long.Do not until what we have done and decided in the end will actually make us regret." arunika said solemnly.

As if stunned, Surya realized that he did not want to be rash. Again what Arunika said was the truth, do not let him later accept regret as a result of what has been decided and done.

"Yes .. is what you said. Hopefully, everything I do will not regret later. Sometimes I have to stand on a thin thread where there is love, trust, and friendship. Thin thread that is easy to break. The wrong choice" he said.

"At least, follow your heart because it knows what you choose. Your heart will show you what is right and what is wrong. Listen to your heart and do it." said Arunika solemnly.

Surya nodded his head and smiled faintly. "Of course .. I checked back what was in my heart. I really hope whatever happens in the future is the best for the three of us. Hopefully." said Surya while hoping that in the future whatever happens is the best for him, the Moon, and also the Stars.
