Between Love and Love
Not easily broken.

...When one or two people bring a word of love to me I just smile and say it in my heart, I can't believe it. Because the love of that man I think is bullshiit. ...

...Maybe it's not time I feel the love of a man, but I don't expect it either. Because I'm afraid of disappointment. ...

... - Tara...

The phone call, which lasted less than twenty minutes, ended. Communication is the key to a relationship. Whether it's in family, spouse or friends. Cloud always took the time to contact his parents who were in the village every day. It was a form of affection and devotion to both parents.

"So longing to go home," Clouds said to himself.

Awan has been working in Jakarta for about two years. Working as a marketing staff in one of the property companies in Jakarta. He is from Salatiga Central Java. After finishing breakfast, Awan immediately cleaned his boarding room washing dishes and clothes. It was a routine that the Cloud always worked on on on its own. They rarely use laundry services. What an independent man.

The day changed, on a sunny morning Tara was preparing to go to the office. Pink blouse and black subordinate color with hair in let beautiful and natural make up adds to the beauty of Tara.

"Well, this is just beautiful" said Tara after pairing a clip in her hair.

Again he saw himself in the mirror. When he felt that he was beautiful, he immediately moved from the front of the mirror and walked out.

"Hey, mom. Good morning!" Sapa Awan who is also out of the page where his boarding.

Tara turned to the source of the voice and replied. "Morning, mas."

The clouds smiled hearing Tara's reply. Without further ado he immediately ran his motor to go to work. Do not want to periodically look at the beautiful face of Tara fearing she fell in love.

Likewise with Tara he did not want to bother with the greeting of the clouds this morning. According to him it was a natural thing. Quickly he also runs his beloved matic motorbike. Split the streets in the city of Jakarta crowded four-wheeled or two-wheeled vehicles.

"Hah, always every morning like this, tired in the way it feels." lamented Tara when the motorbike he was driving did not move from his place because it was stuck.

Finally after a journey of almost forty minutes Tara arrived at the office. He immediately parked his vehicle.

"After, sir! " Sapa Tara to a security guard at the security guard post while walking quickly to the room where he works.

"Morning, neng is beautiful. Don't run around! Will fall."

"Udah is late sir," replied Tara slightly shouting.

"Neng Tara is always like that in the morning" said the security guard. Along with the headband that always sees Tara always does.

Jakarta streets are crowded and Tara is often late until the office does not make the girl to leave for the office early. Always complaining on the street and running around to his room.

"It's not too late" Tara said as she arrived at the meeting room.

"Yes habits, likes to be late. I knew this morning we were meeting with the big boss. It can be given a warning letter if you like gini continue," said Salma.

"Yes, tomorrow no more" replied Tara, sitting her body in the chair next to Salma.

"From a few months ago you also said tomorrow no more, tomorrow no more."

Tara scratched her non-itchy head with a smile. What Salma said was true often like this. But never once deterred.

"Udah, don't make a fuss. What matters is that Tara's not late." Saut one of Tara's friends named Anton.

"If Tara wants nothing. I immediately married him. Unfortunately I don't want to." Answer Anton.

"Don't be pessimistic. Yes, surrender before war."

" It is as if the weapons are ready for war, not yet advanced but the enemy has retreated." Anton feels that his efforts so far approached Tara in vain. Because Tara didn't give Anton the slightest opening to get close to him.

Not wanting to build a relationship with the opposite sex. But Tara is too disappointed with the past and a love. He thinks the love of that man is bullshiit. And until now no man has been able to really touch Tara's heart. He wants to live better, wants to raise money to change his life better and can always send money to the orphanage where his sisters are without having to think about love from a man.

"You're saying what the hell's not clear." Saut Tara's.

"By the neighbor's missing chick, by the way" replied Salma.

"Kasian once lost, it looks like the lost chicken has been cut by the neighbors in the chicken opor deh."

"Tara!" Shouting Salma. Always like this his best friend can not be taken seriously.

Salma actually pityed Tara. Hdup was alone in a big city who initially looked for someone he liked from small it turned out when he arrived in Tangerang the person he was looking for did not exist. Dumped the old man. Disappointed by someone who means a lot in his life. Wouldn't a person who had experienced disappointment like Tara find it hard to trust others? He did not even want to open his heart at all to any man. He is afraid of building relationships, he is afraid of disappointment. A difficult past can truly change the heart of man.

Some people will grow strong with parental affection. But Tara is strong because of the rigors of life. But that's life, nothing is as smooth as an unimpeded highway. But one of Tara's beliefs, he believes the good God is all good. He only believes in love from God.

"Neither shout, Salma. I'm not deaf yet" said Tara.

"Lo nyebelin really. I'm trying to be a matchmaker for you."

"You want to be a matchmaker for singles."

"Iya, juga ya."

They both finally laughed. Not to forget Anton also laughed at the debate of two people who were friendly to each other.

Anton is a teammate in the marketing department with Salma and Tara. He is a good man and also a church friend with Tara. They even went to church a few times. Not only once did Anton express his heart but Tara firmly refused. Because he thinks Anton is just a good friend. Tara is also acquainted with Anton's family. The attitude of both Anton's parents who consider Tara his own child is not able to melt the girl's heart. Tara only considers Anton a friend.

"Oh, yes. Tomorrow we have a church assignment. I'll pick you up later, will I?" Anton told Tara.

"Okay, I'm waiting." Answer Tara.

Meeting room in if slowly by someone from outside. Stop the discussion between them. Two men and one woman walked into the room.

"Eh, you work here?" ask a man while pointing at Tara.

"Yes, you can be here anyway." Tara answered spontaneously. A second later, he closed his mouth.
