HATE BUT MISS
HATE BUT MISS

The train arrived at XX station, after a journey of approximately 5 hours. People with the same destination descended and thronged the station which was already crowded with people who were waiting for a train for a certain department.

A woman with shoulder-length hair, focused down the stairs of the train trying to get out of the pressure of the people, away to the edge approaching the seat. Start getting out her phone and calling someone.

"Hello Daisy. I've reached the station. Where are you waiting?"

Someone answered and gave instructions to the woman to immediately walk to the exit gate.

The woman who was given the instructions immediately walked towards the exit gate. Still listening to instructions with the right hand holding the phone in the ear and the left hand pulling the suitcase. Circularizing the gaze, and someone who was being sought was finally caught by the eye as well.

A person with long straight hair named Diyas, waved his hand many times to the woman who was developing her sweet smile. Soon the woman ran small splitting the human crowd and hugged the person named Daisy.

"Aahhhh! Daisy, Daisy, Daisyyy."

Shouting merrily a little loud as well, so that makes people who are passing by slightly turn their heads. Because the hugged was equally loud welcome the hug miss the woman.

"My dear moon! I miss, miss, miss, miss heavy!" Positions that still hold each other tightly and also slightly sway left and right.

"Not only you know. I'm also very kangennnnnnn with you." Releasing their embrace, with both expressions still the same. A smile that expands.

"Wait a minute, why is your jacket tied around your waist?" Ask Daisy for wonder.

Instantly Runa's face slightly turned sour.

"When I want to walk to the ojek base, suddenly there is a car that shot. There was a puddle of water, so it had to be." Runa replied annoyedly, while showing her clothes that were a little dirty due to splashes of water.

"Because it's males change, so I stop wearing a jacket." Further.

"Uuhh, what a fuck. Just going into town, there's been a trial." Daisy tries to calm Runa down by patting her shoulder.

"Nothing. I hope I don't see that person again. Malesin, make blood high."

Before returning. They stopped by the chicken noodle shop. For lunch, while talking. Runa and Daisy tell us about their experiences since they graduated from school. How was city life before Runa came and also village life after Daisy's departure.

"I'm sorry Runa, I wasn't there in your bad times." Daisy clasped both hands of Runa with a guilty look on her face.

Runa breathed. Then a sincere smile looked at his best friend.

"No need to apologize. This is all fate. My mom and dad were happy there. May they be accepted by His side."

While Ibu Runa died two months ago, due to heart disease he suffered for the last 2 years.

Runa chose to rent his parents' house to a wealthy family who had just been transferred to his hometown with the monthly fee paid for by transfer.

Because Runa had no one else there. Runa did not get too close to the family from both sides after her maternal grandmother and her paternal grandparents died. Therefore, he decided to follow Daisy to continue his education which was delayed by one year.

"The savings of my parents plus my income during this one year's work seems to be enough for my life in the next 2 years. I'm just looking for a part-time job while I'm in college."

"I'll help you find a part-time job. Hopefully by moving you here. Your sadness can be treated immediately"

"Thank you Daisy." Runa smiled happily along with her falling tears easily drenching her cheeks. The faces of his parents are still clearly imagined in Runa's mind so that every night Runa always cried and cried because he still could not accept the fact that they were people who Runa loved so much had gone to another realm for eternity.

"This is the cost you've been living for a year now Daisy?"

"Yeah. Come on in." Daisy unlocks the lock and allows Runa to enter the room on the second floor.

the boarding room Daisy lives in is quite large. Inside there are 2 mattresses, 1 study table and 2 wardrobes, one stove for cooking and a bathroom inside. Daisy had told Mother boarding, that her friend would rent a boarding house here but the place is full because of that Runa will stay temporarily in the Daisy boarding room with a little rent raised. After one year, the occupants of the boarding room on the edge of Daisy's room will be out soon because next year is her graduation. Daisy is lucky to have a kind-hearted Mother Kos.

"Mother Ros (the boarding house) was so nice, I remembered my mother." Runa muttered with a smile re-imagining her mother's face.

"He was very kind, I consider him like my own mother after Mother Tika and your mother." Daisy answered enthusiastically. Because during his life he never knew who his parents were, because he was found by residents in the village dumped on the side of the road after it was given to Mother Tika as the owner of Orphanage in the village. It's very ironic that Daisy's life story, but she closes it with the heartache she feels because of her parents' actions. But he would never hate them. Daisy is always with her parents who are out of nowhere and where in the prayers she offers every day.

"When are you going to start college?"

"Ospek starts in 2 weeks, I can't wait to get to college." Runa looked very excited, while tidying up her things. Yes, college was one of his wishes but he paused because he did not want to leave his mother alone, while in his village there was no university. Therefore, he did not want to leave his mother alone, he chose to work and become a factory employee only.

As for Daisy, he did not have the intention to go to college.The purpose of her to the city was to work to earn as much money as he had no passion to learn, now his passion is work, work, looking for money and also looking for a dream match.every month his salary money is left to pay for costs, savings and also send Mother Tika money because she loves Mother Tika like her own mother, like her mother, after what Mother Tika has given it feels Daisy can not repay her kindness even though every month sending money.

"Well, you're so excited. If there's a handsome student, you can be known as your best friend." Daisy nudges Runa on the shoulder, with both eyebrows raised down. Runa can only laugh at the babbling of his best friend, from the first he always talked about a soul mate but until now he has not found his dream man who is like Park Bo gum, a South Korean artist.

"You're Daisy, still expecting a guy like your Park Bo gum?" Runa was still laughing a little.

"Hey I still remember the words of our first president sir that you said during your school-time speech assignment. 'Dream as high as the sky. If you fall, you will fall among the stars'. Time you forgot again." Daisy walked towards the bathroom.

Runa was a little surprised. Recollecting the school days, including the task of giving a speech in front of the class. He took the theme of dreams to provide motivation to friends and himself. He was more and more excited to immediately enter the lecture and achieve his dream.
