Between Love and Corona

Between Love and Corona
When Did You Open Your Heart?


A few days after Surya returned to Makassar, Moon was again busy with work as a Primary School teacher. Being a teacher is not just a profession, but there is a service side to students. A teacher not only encourages students in learning and teaching activities, but sometimes a teacher also guides, becomes a counselor, even must build good communication with the parents of students. Especially in this pandemic, when all teaching activities are transferred online, the task of a teacher is actually increasing. Once after the pandemic, teachers only taught in the classroom and only assessed some of the PR of the students at home. Today, a teacher at home still has to prepare teaching materials with his laptop, learn how to teach using various digital applications, remind students one by one to work on assignments, and learn how to teach by using various digital applications, and also reply to any incoming messages from the parents of the students. Therefore, there is a service side of a teacher.


The same thing is done by the moon. The young teacher, always convinced himself that his task is not only to transfer knowledge to the students, but also to serve them so that even though learning from home, the students can still get knowledge, knowledge, and learning, and also insight.


"Mom Moon, so next week Mother who will represent our school to join the government program for training to create a digital learning media." The Headmaster who appointed the Moon to represent his school for the training.


The girl nodded her head. "Well sir, where's the show going?" Ask to ascertain where the training event will be held.


"In Kaliurang, Mom. You can leave directly from home. The training is only one day. Make sure to bring a laptop only, while for internet access has been prepared by the organizer," said the Principal.


After teaching, the Moon chose to return home immediately. Every day struggling with laptops, mobile phones, and also the tasks of students who are sent into the application of his message, making the girl tired not a bitch. So that once home, the Moon prefers to rest his body for a moment.


On the one hand, Moon is actually grateful because now she can really focus on working, without thinking about her relationship with the man who is already over. However, sometimes the girl still remembers some precious moments that she has been through with Surya.


You in Makassar are doing Surya? I hope, there you are always healthy and happy. Even if you can, you'll find a replacement for me.


The girl muttered inwardly as she closed her eyes. In his heart, he always prayed that Surya would get a girl who would be able to accompany him, becoming a suitable partner for him. Moon also hopes here, he will get the same happiness. Even if not in a short time, he should at least start to open his heart.


A few days later ....


With escorted by his Father, Moon arrived at the wrong place to be used as a training place for Media Learning for Primary School Teachers. Usually, schools will appoint teachers who are fairly young at age, because they are still high spirits, tech-savvy, and also have a high learning will. Therefore, the school where the Moon teaches sent the Moon to attend the training.


Upon entering the hall where the training took place, the two eyes of the girl seemed to blink. Why does he feel familiar with the figure of a person who is sitting behind a laptop. The moon was just silent, and he went on to fill out the present list first and take the modules on the registration desk. However, when he finished with the registration section, the figure he knew was already standing before him.


"Month, are you in this training too?" Say hello to the man while smiling at the moon.


The girl nodded faintly, "uh, Bin ... how did you get here?" Ask the figure who is none other than the Star.


"It can be, because the one who gave this training from where I work. Didn't expect to meet here. Did you go on a motorcycle to Kaliurang?" Ask the Stars to the Moon.


The Moon quickly shook her head, "no, I was delivered by you. Actually I want to bring my own motorcycle, but you're worried. So it was you who brought me here. Later if you want to go home, be told to call so you can get ready to pick me up here."


"Let's go home with me, Moon .. I take you, pity you if you have to go back and forth here. After all, it's just the afternoon after training." He said while looking at the moon.


Looking at the Moon that seemed silent and seemed to be at work, the man quietly waited expectantly.


"Where is Bin .. I don't feel good to trouble you." I feel bad bothering the Stars.


The star shook its head. "No, no bother. For you, I can always. There is no word of bother in my dictionary." said the man with a smile.


Looking at the Moon in doubt, the Star again convinced the Moon to go home with him. "Don't think too long," said the Star, "all of you will be with me. Yes, please sit down. Five minutes of training will begin."


The moon sighed, in his mind it seemed that the Star would indeed struggle to get the opportunity that was currently before him. After that the Moon smiled to the Stars, and she took a seat by choosing a place she thought was strategic for training.


Exactly five minutes later, the speaker conveyed the use of Learning Media in teaching and learning activities. Media learning is everything that can be used to convey a message to students in teaching and learning activities. The use of learning media aims to encourage the interest and attention of students to learn.


Actually related to Media Learning has been very aware of the month when college first. As a student of the Faculty of Teacher Training, it is certain that Moon gets a special course in Media Learning, so following the training this time as to repeat the lecture material. The difference is, in this training all the Primary School teachers present not only get theories, but they are also divided into several groups to create Learning Media directly.


By late afternoon, when it was time to eat a snack, it appeared that the Star was approaching the Moon again. The man offered the Moon a cup of warm tea. "The Moon."


One hand of the Moon was stretched out to receive the warm Tea in the white ceramic cup. "Thank you, Bin." Say it while smiling.


"Your group was cool. Media created and implemented in the chosen learning method is good." Comments to the working group of the Month.


The girl smiled, she did not expect that Bintang would pay attention to the media and learning methods used by her group. "Did you notice?" Ask the Stars.


The man nodded faintly, "yes, I noticed it."


Silent. The two then both gulped down their warm cup of Tea in equal silence. Only his second breath greeted in his sense of hearing.


But it was the moment of silence that the Star then opened its voice, "Moon, so when are you going to start opening your heart?" He asked by looking at the face of the Moon deeply.
