High School Bridal Romance
Good Bye Sydney!
Complete one week really for packing, until finally today becomes the day where Elkan and Mira will leave Sydney. Before going to the airport, still in her unit, Mira observed corner after corner in the unit. It was as if everything he had gone through with Elkan was reflected there.
Starting from the sofa where sitting together, watching television, or their naughty activities are several times done on the sofa. In addition, in the kitchen with a cup of tea that they always enjoy in the morning. Then, the room is certainly very historic. The room where she meets as a young couple.
Mira even still stood in front of his bed, knowing with his wife's sad feelings, Elkan immediately grabbed his wife's body from behind and held her so tightly.
"Sad, Honey?" ask Elkan.
"Yes, kangen," replied Mira.
"We were nostalgic together last night. This unit will not be sold. In the years to come, we can come here again" Elkan replied.
Yes, indeed Elkan had already spoken to his Papa that he had no intention of selling this unit. The reason is simple, he wants this place to be a nostalgic place for him. Fortunately, Papa Belva agreed. As the middle way, the unit will only be rented.
"Loved, Brother," replied Elkan.
"Together, Honey. Sewindu our wedding, we go to Sydney again well," said Elkan.
"Yes, hopefully," replied Mira.
"Yes already, we take some photos together first yuk. For a memento," replied Elkan.
The young couple took photos in several corners, looking like Mira's face because it was too sad. But it can be a memento for them. After that, Elkan invited Mira to get off because the taxi that would take them to the airport had arrived.
"Thank you in 3.5 years it's been a shelter for us. It has become a place to share the love of morning, day, and night. Lots of beautiful memories here. Forever, this room will be stored in my memory" said Mira lirih.
Elkan greeted by embracing his wife's shoulder. Then, Elkan also said farewell to his unit." It's always a loving room, next time, we'll be here again. We will miss you."
After that both of them came out of the room, and the key he handed over to the apartment clerk. Elkan had also given power to manage and rent the room. Especially if there are students from Indonesia who study in Australia, will get a more skewed price of course.
"Mama and Papa," said Elkan below with his Mama and Papa.
"Have we gone to the airport?" bring Papa Belva.
"Yes" answered Elkan.
Eventually, they entered the car and headed to the airport. When the car was about to go, Mira stared at the apartment building. Still sad. However, it has been their decision to return to Indonesia.
"Sad, Ra?" papa Belva asked his son-in-law.
"It's okay. How this place is so historic for you two. Just like when you moved from Bogor to Jakarta, you need time to adapt. Patience" said Papa Belva.
"Yes, Pa. .. yeah, slow down later yeah, Pa," replied Mira.
Lucky Mira has good in-laws. When she was sad about having to move, Papa Belva could understand her sadness. Even Papa Belva asked Mira to be patient. Really, a very good Father-in-law.
"Elkan will always cheer Mira up" replied Elkan.
Mama Marsha and Papa Abraham who listened to Elkan felt very happy. It was because Elkan looked mature and was ready to comfort his daughter. For Papa Abraham and Mama Marsha, the 3.5-year period in Australia would not have been smooth if Elkan had not accompanied Mira.
Travel quite far, until now they have arrived at the airport. If they first came to Sydney, they both had only three suitcases. When they get home, Mira and Elkan carry six suitcases. There are no items that are delivered via cargo, and only arrived in Indonesia one month later.
The six did a check in and are now in the waiting room. If the time comes to Sydney just Elkan and Mira alone. Now there are their Mama and Papa accompanying. Of course, my mom and dad were there so Mira wasn't too sad.
"Don't be sad well later we will travel to Sydney again well," said Mama Sara.
"Yes, Ma .. thank you," replied Mira.
"Next year, we're going to Paris, Ra. Look at Eiffel there," said Mama Sara again.
Of course Mira was happy. Because, indeed Mira also wants to be able to go to Europe at a later time. True, there are families who become the main support system.
At the end of the day, all passengers are welcome to board the plane. The Agastya and Narawangsa families ride business classes so to sit back and enjoy a more comfortable transcontinental journey.
The cabin crew asked all passengers to wear seat belts because the plane was about to take off. Mira, who was sitting next to her husband, spoke in a trembling voice.
"Sydney will always be in my heart" Mira said.
"Yes, Honey. Good bye Sydney," replied Elkan.
Until finally the iron bird began to take time to take off. Where the plane goes so fast, until slowly the fuselage is lifted into the air. The city of Sydney is visible from the air. With tears in her eyes, Mira spoke softly.
"Good bye, Sydney."
Three and a half years, the port town of Darling Harbour was his stop. A place that has a lot of beautiful stories for both of them. Now both of them, having to leave Sydney, returned again to Jakarta. However, there is a heart left behind in the city of Sydney.
