Just More Time

Just More Time
Togetherness


On this sunny morning our Mandala High School students will return to our beloved city. The holiday on the Island of the Gods is over. Although very short but this is fun, what else here I get two beautiful gifts. You guys know what?


First I am not single anymore, Mba Rika will not make fun of me as Jomlo, because now I have a beautiful lover. In the future it is certain that this beautiful girl will be my wife.


Second, I have superpowers. Never imagined by me before. I who is an ordinary human being can have the power like those in novels, comics and movies. Of course I'm very happy. I was confused as to how to express this happiness.


The bus we were riding was already running. The bus will take us to the city of Y. The city where I was born and raised.


I felt together with other friends. They sang and joked together, as if all the differences had melded into one. This atmosphere is very warm, maybe they are carried away by an atmosphere that does not want this holiday to end. When else could it be like this? Because soon I have graduated high school and will continue to college. I unconsciously smiled to myself to see their togetherness.


"Raka, you want this?" said the girl sitting next to me offering a snack in her hand.


"Hmmm, later, I want to enjoy this atmosphere first" I told Sesil. Yes, Sesil is sitting next to me, I really don't want to be away from him.


I heard guitar lines and songs sung together from the back of my seat. They sang happily. Until one of them makes a game by throwing a paper ball to another friend. The one hit by the throw of the paper ball must continue the chanting that stopped.


The first throw was about Iren, the girl who liked me a long time ago. Iren who was sitting in the front seat stood up, and faced back to be able to see all of us. Then his eyes stared fixedly at me. He started singing along with guitar music played by other friends.


When love stirs up the feeling


It's so beautiful to carve my heart


Touching my soul


Eliminate all anxiety


Duhai my love, duhai my puja


Come to me, near by my side


I want my life


Always in his arms


Lightly, I waited for him


Lightly, I was expecting it


Lightly, I miss her


Because of her, because she's so beautiful


He sang quite melodious, performing a song from the band Padi entitled So Beautiful, this song was released one year ago precisely in 1999. (You have to remember, yes, I am now living in the year 2000). Just this time I heard him sing, it turns out Iren has a beautiful voice, according to the title of the song he brought. His voice was soft, but it made anyone who wanted to listen again and again. What a heart-felt voice. I was glad to hear him sing. You guys don't suspect anything, I'm just enjoying the sound of Iren, nothing more.


"Ehem.." Sesil cleared his throat beside me. Apparently from earlier he noticed Iren's eyes that were not separated from me. While singing Iren did not turn his gaze away from me. It was as if delivering a message through a song that he brought.


"Why baby?" I looked at the beautiful girl next to me. I called her dear so she wouldn't get angry.


"It's nice to carry a song with the girl you've kissed" Sesil pushed his mouth forward, he's in a cradle mode.


"Ralat, he kissed me" I said.


"Just like, the point is you're kissing"


"Honey, don't talk about it anymore? he said he's not angry with me anymore?" indeed yes girl if heartache is difficult to escape. He said uda was forgiven, ehh even discussed again.


"That's it, now I'm upset again" the tiny lips still pouted.


"If I'm still so sweet I kissed ya?" I said prank.


Sesil's reflex closed his lips with both hands. He widened his eyes, then shook his head.


"Eat him, it's not discussed anymore" I said.


Iren had finished singing, then he continued the paper ball throwing game. But somehow he threw the paper ball at me, and I really didn't think it was right on me.


"Singing, singing, singing.." another friend cheers.


There was a compact sound and applause from the students on the bus. The sound of the guitar is still heard, and they still tell me to sing.


"That's right, Iren asked for an answer from his singing" Sesil still protested and frowned.


I also took a slow walk, and started playing the guitar in my hand. Staring at the girl next to me.


"This song is for you" I whispered in Sesil's ear.


I continued the lyrics from Iren who stopped, accompanied by the sound of guitar passages that seemed to add rhythm. I guided melodiously making anyone who heard my senandu subconsciously turn towards me.


My love, my heart


Hugged me, embrace my soul


Bring my body


Hovering, hugging stars, mm


Lightly, I waited for him


Lightly, I was expecting it


Lightly, I miss her


Because she's (because she's), because she's so beautiful


Mm, bright, I'm waiting for him


Lightly, I was expecting it


Lightly, I miss her


Because of her, because she's so beautiful


So beautiful


So beautiful


So beautiful


Oh-ho-oh, uh-ho-oh


Oh-ho-oh, uh-ho-oh


Oh-ho-oh, uh-ho-oh


Oh-ho-oh, uh-ho-oh


I see, so beautiful


They sang with me, including Sesil who was next to me. She sang while looking at me. A red tinge adorned his white cheeks, our eyes meeting each other. It was as if this song was describing our feelings of love. We sang together, and I laughed cheerfully. It was good to see him smiling happily etched into his face and he was not angry anymore.


I could not feel that the singing was over and my guitar had stopped. Some of the students who had been standing, singing and dancing together again sat in their seats.


On the other hand I still smile to myself remembering this pleasant moment of togetherness.


"Are you happy?" sesil asked, as if he was watching me smiling to myself.


"Yes, happy, very happy. Especially if you're here" I said embracing Sesil's shoulder.


Sesil smiled "I'm also happy because there's you Raka" he leaned his head on my shoulder.


"Not so bad anymore, right?" my many.


"Hmmm" Sesil shook his head and began to close his eyes. "I'm sleepy, leave it like this"


"Happy, sleep" I said, stroking her hair gently.
