Childhood Match
Enjoying the Beautiful Sunrise that Ends Love Speech

Sayup heard adhan dawn reverberate. The longer the sound gets closer, to make the closed eyes closed as if open, preparing to face the Khaliq. Cold air makes people hypnotized. I want to pull the blanket and wake up in a few minutes. But Time refused to compromise. He will leave anyone who does not rush to the flow of time.

All participants of the LDK camp at Silancur Highland woke up against the cold winds of the cleft peak. The water they take to gargle makes teeth grate, tubs gargle with ice water. For Gendhis, this kind of atmosphere was common. Certainly not for his friends who are following the camp. Nevertheless, their spirit is not unyielding. They did not want to miss their last chance to see the sunrise at Silancur's vantage point. Hence, they immediately woke up. After failing on their first night when they want to enjoy the beauty of the sunrise due to overcast weather, they hope this time the Sun will show a glimmer of light in the eastern horizon.

"Damn..." Call Tina after coming out of the mosque in the camp area.

"Yes, Tin... Why?" Gendhis.

Tina starts to figure out how to get Gendhis to the place Riko asked for last night.

"Dis, as long as we're here, you haven't taken me for a walk around Silancur. Today is the last day, and the activity is over. Let's take a walk, huh, Dis?" Tina started to take action.

Gendhis smiled.

"What doesn't make my best friend..." The answer.

"Really, Dis?" Tina happy.

"Yes yes, it is... Where do you want to go? Let alone the circumference of Silancur, around the top of Sumbing I was anterin" Gendhis joked.

"Yes, really, Dis. I'll change my clothes first, let me take a selfie." Tina. He did not expect, it was not a difficult thing to bring Gendhis way up. What makes it difficult is that he has to lie to his best friend. In his heart he asked,

"What if Gendhis knows the plan? Must be angry... I'm sorry, Dis. I won't repeat this again. I promise..." Tina actually felt guilty.

"Well, we put it on first, take a shower, change clothes we go up." Gendhis.

"Siapp..." Tina excited.

The two returned to the tent to get ready. Shortly after, they came out of the tent.

Although with a simple face polish, but Gendhis looked beautiful that morning. Wearing a dusty tunic and a phasmina hijab that matches the color of the tunic, it is only slightly darker. Bind the knit waist mocca color that is not too wide circular above the hips. Black soft jeans, and white sneakers complete with white straps Gendhis favorite.

"Are you ready, Tin?" Gendhis asked his best friend who was busy looking for something from his bag.

"Yes, Dis, hang on. I'm looking at my phone." Reply tina who is still busy looking. After he met, he immediately sent a conversation through whatsapp to Riko, he said, "Sister Riko, me and Gendhis walk now."

From outside the tent, Gendhis was already waiting.

"Come, Tin..." Call Gendhis.

Soon Tina's insertion into her small purse before Gendhis suspects her gestures.

"Oh. Yeah, Dis..." Tina answered while exiting the tent.

One of their friends named Santi just came out of the tent next to him. Looks like Santi just woke up from his sleep. His eyes were still bright with a thick jacket covering his body.

"Well. wow... early in the morning your gini is neat. Where are you going, Dis? I'm not talking about it anyway..." Ask Santi.

"We want to walk up. You wanna follow?" Genghis asked.

Tina was a little panicked, maybe Santi would follow along, well, danger.

"Pengen anyway. but, I haven't had a shower... " Santi said shyly.

Soon Tina answered before Gendhis got ahead.

"Yes there already.Bath first, I was in a hurry with Gendhis because. You will follow. Day rush..." Tina said she was worried that Santi would come with them.

"Yes, yeah. yeah, I take a shower..." Santi went back into the tent.

The weather this morning was friendly. So that campers can watch the sunrise as they have dreamed.

After walking for a few minutes, Gendhis and Tina finally reached the place that Riko had determined.

The view is fantastic. The sky began to roll up its night blanket, changing a yellowish ray of light from the eastern horizon. There they saw the silhouette of four mountains at once, namely Mount Merapi, Mount Merbabu, Mount Andong and Mount Telomoyo. And if they look towards the west, the Sumbing shoots look very handsome standing towering. Morning air typical of the top of Sumbing, as well as a stretch of green rice fields owned by local farmers. All of this makes Silancur more perfect.

Tina was so stunned to see such a stunning sight. Until he almost forgot his main purpose of bringing Gendhis to this place was Riko's request. He wants this situation to end soon, so that the burden of guilt to his best friend will end soon.

"Dis..you wait here a minute yaaaa..." Pinta Tina started her plan.

"Where are you going, Tin?" Asked Gendhis who was a little surprised to see the behavior of his friend who was suddenly strange.

"I want to go to the toilet..." Tina reasoned.

"Lho...wasn't it after the mushola you went to the toilet?" Gendhis.

Tina remembered, indeed after the mosque had said that she wanted to go to the toilet.

"Em. yes, mostly drink, and the weather is also very cold, so I went back and forth to the toilet. I'm really fucking kebelt this." Answer Tina.

"Oh my goodness, Tina.. Do you want to leave me alone here? I'll come with you down..." Gendo seemed uncomfortable.

"Eh.. don't.. don't.. em.. I mean you just wait here. I'll just pause, come back here again. I'm not happy to enjoy the view here... Yes Dis..." Tina pleads.

"Hem. ya already... but don't be long yaaaa..." Gendhis Pinta.

"Ready..." Soon Tina left Gendhis who was still sitting on the long chair while enjoying the view.

Soon Tina contacted Riko and said that she had descended to the bottom leaving Gendhis. He also posted via whatsapp,

"Sister Riko, I've complied with your request. Now it's Riko's turn to comply with my request!"

"Siappp... What's your request, Tin?" Riko replied.

"Jaga Gendhis is fine, don't macem-macem. If anything bad happens with Genphis, I'm the first one to divulge Riko's plan!" Tina threatened because she was a little worried about her best friend.

"Of right.. ready, Tin. I have more respect for Gendhis than I have for myself. I promise you, I'll give your best friend back without a single strand of hair." Riko's promise was so happy.

Riko soon caught up with Gendhis through a different path to the one Tina and Gendhis had passed while ascending. After arriving, from a distance, how pleased he was to see Gendhis so gracefully. Her pretty face shone through the reflection of the dawn light. Sitting in a chair beside her was filled with flowering plants.

Observing every corner of the scenery in front of him made Gendhis unaware that Riko was already standing behind him.

Bak hears a flash of lightning, and Gendhis is shocked to hear Riko's voice break his daydream.

Immediately he looked back and was right, Riko was already standing about a meter behind Gendhis. How surprised Gendhis was and wanted to feel he ran away from Riko, but he had promised Tina to wait for him until Tina came.

"Gendhis... Are you here?" Riko seemed to have no idea why the girl could now be before him.

"Mas Riko? What are you doing here?" Without answering, Gendhis immediately asked Riko a question.

"Em.. I was again walking around looking for morning air while waiting for the sunrise here which he said was very good. And it turned out to be true, the beauty I saw this morning was the perfect beauty I had never seen before." Said Riko pretended, while continuing to stare at Gendhis face in awe.

Gendhis started to feel uncomfortable with the atmosphere.

"What are you doing here alone, Dis?" Riko asked as she walked closer to Gendhis.

"I was waiting for Tina, we were walking together, she suddenly came down for a while and she said she'd be here soon." Gendhis replied without returning Riko's gaze.

"Oh..." Riko answered. He actually knew exactly what had happened.

"May I sit here?" Riko asked permission even though his body was sitting in the corner of the same long chair that Gendhis had occupied.

Gendhis is increasingly uncomfortable with Riko's request.

"Please, Mas. Continue to enjoy the sunrise, I'm sorry, I want to follow Tina." Gendhis stood up and was about to die Riko.

"Wait, Dis?" Riko prevented.

This time Gendhis tried to listen to Riko's words. After getting up from his sitting position, Gendhis did not step foot.

"Why, Mas?" Gendhis asked without staring at Riko.

"Dis, I want to talk to you." Said Riko.

"Mas Riko, what do you want to say? We'll just talk downstairs..." Pinta Gendhis while stepping leaving Riko.

"Gendhis. Sebentaaar. I promise it won't be long. But please.dengerin I said first, after that you can go." Riko begged.

Gendhis stopped while turning his back to Riko, a moment later, he turned towards Riko.

"Well, Mom, just for a second! I don't want anything to misunderstand by seeing us alone in this place." Gendhis.

Riko felt relieved, finally Genphis gave him the opportunity to express his heart. Riko walked closer to Gendhis, and made Gendhis even more uncomfortable.

Again Gendhis turned his face towards the rising sun.

"Damn..." Riko's mouth was as muddled as Gendhis actually gave him a chance to talk.

"Dis.. I just want to talk. if I like you..." Riko said nervous and relieved because the words he could finally say in front of the people he loved.

Gendhis was shocked as if his fear had been true all along. That was the reason why he had always avoided Riko. And this time, he was cornered at the situation that made him have to listen to Riko's words.

"I know you're engaged. But I don't care. I know you don't love Lintang. You're just forced to make this match because you don't want to disappoint your parents." Riko.

"Enough, Mas..." Gendhis stopped Riko's words, as if he could not accept if his love was in doubt. Even by people who have nothing to do with it.

"Mas Riko knows what about me? How could Mas Riko know about me, and we never talk to each other? Enough, I'm going down now." Gendhis turned around to leave Riko, but.ups suddenly Riko pulled Gendhis right arm quite strongly and made him turn around looking at Riko's face. Things he never did before.

"Gendhis.hear first..I really love you, Dis. Please. I want to do anything for you." Riko.

"Oh, huh???" Genghis asked.

"of course. All I do is you can give me one chance that I can make you happy." Riko answered.

"Then let go of my hand!" Gendhis Pinta.

Riko ate his own shit. I don't want him to take off Gendhis hand.

Gendo feels better. He let out a long sigh, finally Riko took off her hand. But Gendhis had not been completely relieved before he could leave the place. He was worried that someone saw the incident and misunderstood it and said it to Lintang.

"Mas Riko, sorry, I can't. I'm an engaged girl, Mas Riko knows that. Mas Riko better find another girl who is more appropriate, who can repay Mas Riko's love. Not me, Mas..." Reply Genthis.

Riko was just speechless, speechless, as if he was understanding it was like this it felt like being rejected by a girl? During this time he did not even realize how many girls had to be heartbroken because of it. Because of his refusal, also because he just stayed.

"Mas Riko, now everything is clear, so please stop thinking about me." Pinta Gendhis while turning around left Riko.

While elsewhere, Tina was feeling so anxious, as she returned to the tent, meeting Sinta who asked, saying,

"Lho, Tin... Where's gendhis? Mas Lintang just got here to Nyariin Gendhis."

"Ha... Mas Latitude?" Tina was surprised not to listen to Sinta's words.

"Yes, Mas Latitude. He said he wanted to ask to pick up at what time, because it has been contacted he said his phone is not active. " Sinta made her words clear.

"Certainly? What did you answer?" Tina curious.

"Yes, I replied, Gendhis, what should I answer? Really, weren't you guys upstairs?" Sinta still doesn't understand.

"Haduhhhh." Tina looked puzzled pacing in front of the tent.

"What's wrong, Tin?" Sinta kepo's.

"No. no papa. Now where is the latitude?" Ask Tina.

"Yes up, follow you..." Sinta lugu replied.

"Huh? Upstairs?" Without hearing the answer from Santi, immediately Tina ran away from the tent to catch up with her best friend who might be in big trouble due to her carelessness. Tina walked very quickly to the place where she had left her best friend alone.
