Love In Longing
Ct. 52 (The Figure Appears Again)
Chirping in the heart with half dead hold so that no sound comes out and is heard by the lover in the distance. While keeping the phone away from her lips, Cla had a dream... If he had been there, he would have embraced the lover's arm and shown the blonde if he had been the winner.
It's just that the country's differences are so far away that the girl can only laugh evil in the heart.
"Hello, Honey? Still in there?" arsen asked when he hadn't heard Cla's voice since Lady greeted him.
As fast as lightning Cla neutralized himself from the desire to laugh. "Still.." replied Cla flatly as before. "Who are you talking to?" cla asked pretending not to know.
"Lady.." answered Arsen honestly.
"Oh... So it's Lady's voice." said Cla satisfied, because the lover chose to be honest. "Keep up.. Where is he? Why did the voice disappear?"
"I got into the elevator by myself. Maybe he went back to the cafe with friends." replied Arsen.
"Are you sure you don't want to join them?" cla asked increasingly trying to test the stance of the lover. "Have not seen each other in a long time, have you?"
"If I told you I wanted to be with you, so yeah, it's better to be with you, baby." replied Arsen. "At the same time I'm tired. And again there's Lady, you don't like her, do you?"
"Very!" ketus Cla's. "But I'm happy, you introduced me as your lover." Cla said, turning his expression into a smile.
"Because the reality is like that." replied Arsen. "If you're here, I'll definitely introduce you to them if you're is mine!"
Smiling with a red face, Cla always misbehaved with the sweet treatment of the lover. "But why did my photo become a painting? Not our real photo?"
"Do you know the answer?" ask Arsen out of the elevator.
"Hmmm.." Cla nodded even though he was invisible to Arsen.
"So that your beauty is not enjoyed by other men." replied Arsen sounding so serious.
Cla laughed as he got more wrong. A raised hand reflex to cover his mouth so as not to smile too widely.
"You are full of a million reasons!" said Cla. "But when it disappeared 3.5 years ago? No reason to say!" sindir Cla pursed his lips.
Arsen chuckled softly as he turned the phone call into a video call, as he had already entered the apartment and immediately threw his body on the long, padded sofa.
The phone call has now turned into a video call. Through the screen of Cla's phone, Arsen's handsome face looks filled the screen.
"I'm not going to disappear a second time! Promise me!" Arsen raised two thumbs by displaying the perfect smile for the beautiful girl plastered on her phone screen.
Cla smiled, staring longingly at the face of the lover who he realized was always alluring wherever he was.
"I love you." said Arsen.
"I love you too." replied Cla. "And, I miss you..."
"Me too, Baby!"
The chatter continues, letting go of the longing that has already begun to be embedded in each other's hearts. Even though the day they passed in a separate state like this was still very long.

The days continue to change, time continues to run, until without feeling a month more two people who are in love are separated.
Arsen had been back on campus since the next day after he arrived in New York. As for Cla, today is the first day the girl enters college in the final semester and is ready with the thesis theme that she has been working on.
Finished with his affairs with the supervising lecturer, Cla sat in the cafeteria with Gwen for lunch at 12 p.m.
Between the times, one phone leaning on a college bag was active and showed a video call there. That's Cla's phone.
Inside the screen, Arsen was sitting at his desk, a laptop was lit in front of him. The phone is placed on a large water bottle on the left side of the laptop. Make the young man can freely see the laptop screen and his lover's face on the mobile phone screen.
"Sen! Isn't it already night? Still talking!" sahut Gwen sat next to Cla.
"My work is still very much, Gwen!" answer Arsen flat.
"Must be done today?" cla asked as he chewed his lunch.
"Well, baby..." Arsen breathed a tired sigh. Because indeed he rarely has time for a long break for the two thesis that he is pursuing.
"Need my help?" tanya Gwen remembered one of Arsen's studies was the same as her.
"No!" sahut Arsen quickly turned his head on the screen, staring at Gwen's arm which looked slightly from Arsen's screen. "I don't really believe in your work!" joking.
Cla chuckled with a fight between his lover and his best friend, but he was not so focused on the screen of his phone, because his hungry stomach can not be asked to joke at this time.
When Cla did not stare at the screen, Arsen was staring at the screen to respond to Gwen's scorn. The girl was no longer visible on her screen. And what was seen was something that gripped the young man's eyes.
A few meters behind Cla, a familiar figure was walking between the existing canteen chair space. It was obvious that the figure was walking closer to the direction where Cla's desk was. Evident from the look of his eyes that lead to the position of Cla.
Arsen who originally focused two-way now choose to focus on the phone. Ensuring vision and sharpening hearing to still be able to hear what will be ignored by them.
"Not finished eating, Baby?" asked Arsen in a slightly different tone.
Realizing Arsen's tone was different, Cla immediately faced the screen, and made his face meet the screen. That made Arsen no longer able to see the figure who was walking closer towards Cla.
"Almost.." replied Cla while mapping the handsome face of his lover.
"Enough two with Gwen, no more, okay!" suddenly Arsen said.
"Huh?" Cla squinted his eyes, not understanding Arsen's intentions.
"What does that mean, Sen?" Gwen followed.
"But eat both!" reiterate Arsen more firmly.
"Hi, Clarice! Hi, Gwen!"
Along with Arsen answering, someone's voice appeared from Cla's right side, making the two girls reflexively turn to the right.
"Sister Victor!" cla and Gwen together.
Suddenly the figure on the screen took a deep breath and breathed heavily on him. The look on her face turned sour until she waited for her lover to look at her.
The guess wouldn't be wrong if it was about that one. But what can he do when he is far away like this? Besides listening to what they're going to talk about.
"Can join?" ask Victor.
Cla gasped for a moment. Quickly he turned to his cellphone screen once he realized this is what the lover meant. Cla's eyes were wide-spun as soon as he felt the lover like a psychic or what was about to happen.
"It seems like we haven't seen each other in a long time?" remake Victor after waiting for a long time two girls in front of him do not answer.
Cla, who was still staring at his girlfriend's face, began to understand what to do.
"Ah... sorry, Brother! but we're done." said Cla with a stiff smile forced.
"Oh. that's so..." Victor nodded then without asking he immediately sat in front of Cla just like that. And Arsen can also know from the motion of the eyeball Cla following the movement of Victor.
"This bench is empty, right?" ask Victor after sitting down.
"I..Yes." answered Cla confused.
"We're going to the library now?" ask Gwen who understands that Cla is confused.
"Aah?" cla chuckles at feeling like there are no plans to go to the library before this.
Gwen quickly gave the code, until Cla finally nodded.
"Oh, yes! Just now!" sahut Cla immediately packed his belongings scattered on the table. Including a phone that still displays the face of his lover.
"We go first, brother?" pamit Gwen waved small.
While Cla just nods and smiles a little while one time.
"Oh, yes." replied Victor who could no longer prevent it as usual.
"You are so insensitive!" gerutu Gwen grumbles at her best friend as the two enter the campus hallway to go to Cla's class.
"Ng-blank it's me!" gelak.
"Quiet, Sen! I'll lock this one!" gwen.
"Hmm.thanks!"
