President Cilok
24 Thinking rationally

Let go of all lara..

At a cafe, now a young man is performing hist songs today. Songs that are loved by teenagers and adults. He spent the afternoon kneading starch kanji dough, as well as to trade cilok.

In the evening, the young man will work as a singer in several cafes and wedding receptions that love his vocal voice. That is the advantage of Damar Mangkulangit, a persistent young man, diligently working to be able to make the people he loves happy.

Currently he is performing a song requested by one of the cafe visitors, more precisely an outdoor angkringan where young children hang out, spending the rest of the night in one corner of the city of gudeg.

On stage, which is only as high as an adult's knee, now Damar is sitting in a high wooden chair holding Mic and accompanied by four other young men who each hold live outdoor cafe musical instruments. One of them is Arjuna aka Juna who holds a guitar musical instrument, and two other people who control the cajon musical instrument, and the organ.

"Well, I will perform the next song, which is specifically requested by one of the visitors, the sweet Mama, which is sweet not sugar well, hehe,” said Damar to give a speech.

"Where is the Mbaknya who is said to be sweet?” shouted the man in black clothes one of the cafe visitors.

Damar looked at the man who was used to being a visitor to the cafe owned by Bu Mariska, the owner of the famous wo in the city of Jogja.

"Wah Mbak sweet, it seems like Mas Baim is interested to know you Mbak,” always Damar turned his eyes to look at the beautiful sepunggai haired girl.

At the same time almost everyone who visits the cafe looking towards the direction of Damar, "But, Mas Baim, Mas Baim's wealth must be more patient well, sweet mbak seems to be feeling the turmoil like me, hehe, heh, canda well, like the song he asked,” said Damar.

The guy named Baim also looks mangosteen, Baim secretly glanced at the sweet Mbak who sat with his two friends, also not known by name.

"Stuck gas Im!” another young man shouted, cheering Baim on.

"Okay, am I or am I good? I'll tell ya, let's be like a Jakarta guy? Hehe joked again,” as a singer Damar must put on a cheerful face, and must be good at taking the hearts of visitors.

"I'm actually shy, but yeah? Ordinary people who are shy, even shy, hehe, sorry well jokes I crisp,”

"just go ahead, Ma'am who was, oh yes this Feli is specifically for the sweet Mbak Feli.”kata Damar, presenting a song that has been requested.

Too soon you're tempted, my love

Too soon you give up your love

I can no longer forgive your guilt

Honey, let me be alone

I didn't think you'd do that

I did not know my fate was unfortunate

Oh, what's my day right now

Lord, help your servant

In a dark night

I sit alone

No more friends

Drops of tears

It doesn't feel like it already

Wetting cheeks

After Damar had sung the song popularized by Noah, but there was something different in his heart now,

"Why represent my feelings.” Inner Damar, he reflexively rubbed his chest. As if someone had pinched his heart.

The night was getting late, entering at 20:35 pm, Damar glanced at his watch. And right in the short clockwise direction at 11, he saw the girl who had made his feelings gamy. Damar stared with a cold gaze, even colder than snow. This is one that Damar can do to be indifferent.

Damar also saw Opik following Ratna who had already sat on a cream-colored wooden bench.

Just then, Ratna circulated her gaze towards the stage and saw a man who was already her ex.

Equally stunned, but Damar first shifted his gaze.

Opik Alamsyah also called one of the waiters cafe,

"Honey, what do you want to drink?” ask Opik to his lover, who incidentally is the ex-boyfriend of his own friend.

Damar smiled faintly, he thought rationally from now on everything about Ratna should he be able to forget. He had to throw himself in the sea, and the parable ate a ferocious shark.

Juna also looked straight, towards Damar looking at Ratna who had begun to dare to show affection together with Opik without any awkwardness. And until now Juna did not know, that Damar had completely separated from Ratna. Juna only thought that since meeting Damar, Damar was colder and more indifferent than usual.

Damar also saw the cafe owner who is also a Wedding Organizer/Wedding Planner entrepreneur out of his room. And immediately approached his clients who were none other than Ratna and Opik.

Damar is indifferent to what his ex-girlfriend is going to do, and focuses on his live music show. No longer the slightest interest in the girl. Damar lowered his head and sighed, a little later circulating his gaze, looking sideways at his duet friend, Siska. The new one arrives, and replaces it with singing.

Beautiful woman berparas ayu and toothed gingsul. Damar observes that Siska is indeed beautiful if you sing like now. But for now, his heart seemed reluctant to open it, and more focused on the path to success.

Because Damar considers if success can be achieved, then any woman will no longer reject it. There was also no more humiliation that he would receive.

A song lyrics that describe the inner upheaval that Damar is feeling. He also had a temporary permit to go to the bathroom. Walking towards Juna who was strumming guitar strings, "I want to go to the bathroom first Jun,” whispered in Juna's ear. Juna just nodded.

While walking beside the cafe shop, Damar accidentally passed by Ratna. Damar smiled crisply at Ratna who looked awkward, Damar then waltzed away as if he did not know Ratna.

But different expectations, Ratna turned around and saw the back of Damar who was about to turn towards the bathroom, "Damar!” exciting Ratna.
