Stuck With My First Love
Caught of Lying

Coco and I were about to put a mic on the committee, and wanted to sit back to where we were, but the MCs prevented us.

“Eitss..Where are you two going? Ga complete dong it feels if ga denger duet both of you. Is it the audience?”

“Yeeyyeeyey.agree..agreed”.

“Please brother two duet huh? Want ya kak?”pinta MCs

“Come brother Vivi.nyanyi lah kak.suara kak kak nik”.

“Iya kak”

“Singi bertar kak”

All of Aldi's senior troops flocked me to sing along.

“Udah sing aja bentar”ucap Coco

“Iya Vi.aku iringin deh”answered Dedi

“Ya deh”

Finally me and Coco duet quipped guitar Arsy and Dedi. That night under the beautiful full moon light, I sang with Coco. The atmosphere is very romantic. Ed Sheeran's song Thinking Out Loud. Maybe because it was too animating for the song we were performing, Coco sang while holding my hand. Making the participants and organizers and alumni who see us even noisier themselves. Even I can hear someone commenting, though,

“Adudahhh.so sweet really sih”

“I am a baper nih”

“Iya.I also”

“They are very romantic anyway.so pingin”

I blushed in shame and continued to sing with Coco. He who keeps looking at me makes me feel wrong. Receiving warm treatment from my own girlfriend but in front of many eyes watching us.

I admit the lyrics to Ed Sheeran's Thinking Out Loud are very romantic. A song that broadly tells about a person's desire to be able to love and be loved eternally. In this song Ed Sheeran said that when he was old, his physical strength and beauty had faded, but his love would never fade to his partner.

Ed Sheeran also invites his listeners to reminisce about memories of the first time experiencing love that sometimes the love that comes mysteriously. Choose to just live an existing relationship, which is the most beautiful gift when the age is getting older, but love will never fade. Duh, so sweet, right?

This is a lyric translation of Ed Sheeran's song Thinking Out Loud.

When your legs don't work like they used to before

When your feet no longer function as they normally would

And I can't sweep you off of your feet

And I can't make you fall in love

Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love

Will your mouth remember my love

Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks

Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks

Darlin I will's

Love, I'll

Be lovin' you

Loving you

Till we're seventy

Until we are seventy

Baby my heart's

Love, my heart

Could still fall as hard

It can fall just as hard

At twenty three

Like when I was twenty-three

I'm thinkin' bout how

I was thinking about how

People fall in love in mysterious ways

People fall in love in mysterious ways

Maybe it's all part of a plan

Maybe this is all part of the plan

I fell in love with you every single day

I fall in love with you every day

I just wanna tell you I am

I just wanted to tell you how it is

So honey now

Then love now

Take me into your lovin' arms

Put me in your warm embrace

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

Kiss me under the light of thousands of stars

Place your head on my beating heart

Put your head on my chest that's pounding

I'm thinking out loud

I reveal my mind

Maybe we found love right where we are

Maybe we can find love where we are

When my hairs all but gone and my memory fades

When the hair on my head ran out and my memory faded

And the crowds don't remember my name

And people don't remember my name

When my hands don't play the strings the same way

When my hands can't play guitar the same way

I know you will still love me the same

I know you will love me the same way

Cause honey your soul

Because of love, your soul

Can never grow old

It's evergreen

Always young

Baby your smile's forever in my mind in memory

Love, your smile is forever on my mind in memories

When I finished singing, I returned my mic and Coco to the MC and we sat down again. With fellow ex-senior PMR and PMR alumni. The retirement event continued, Anti who was then asked to sing ahead. That day, MC really managed to work on us, the ex-seniors and alumni.

When I joined Anti and Ilham's brother who was told to sing, I had a look with Aldi. Since I didn't want to fight Coco, I pretended that I didn't see Aldi. Anti and Ilham that night sang John Legend's song All of Me. Just like when Coco and I were singing, everyone in the field was singing along. Making an impromptu choir.

As Anti sang, I watched Aldi constantly staring at me. Makes me very uncomfortable. His gaze was also full of anger. But I pretended I didn't see. Maybe because of the constant stealing of eyes towards Aldi, I saw Coco also follow looking towards Aldi. This time Aldi looked in the other direction.

After Anti finished singing, Anti sat down again beside me. This time it was the EPSP participants' turn to show their abilities. In the middle of the event, Anti whispered to me,

“From yesterday Aldi see you keep”whisper Anti me

“Do you think so?”

“See aja”

I turned to Aldi, and sure enough, he stared at me.

“You told me not yet if you are already the same Coco?”

“But”

“Kok not yet?”

“I ga dare”

“Mending cepetan says.let you guys can “partah”baik-baik”

I haven't had a chance to talk to Aldi in person, because Coco's always been with me. I don't want any trouble with Coco either. But Anti's advice has a point, too. He better hear the news I'm making with Coco from my own mouth so Aldi can forget about me soon.

I saw Aldi suddenly leave. I also say goodbye to Coco, to catch up with Aldi.

“Where are you?”ask Coco

“I went to the toilet bentar ya”pamitku lied

“Ditemenin ga?”

“Ga please.rent doang”

I walked by myself while looking at Coco a few times. I admit I'm afraid of getting caught by Coco if I'm lying. I want to solve my problem with Aldi alone without Coco's interference. I'm afraid the two of them are fighting because of me.

When I saw Aldi, I called him.

“Al”call me

Aldi saw me go. I speeded up my steps half-run. But because Aldi's footsteps were wider than mine, I had to run after him. And when I got close, I grabbed Aldi's wrist.

“Wait Al. I want to talk”

Aldi brushed my hand violently. His face was also very angry with me.

“I'm busy sister.maaf”

“After Al.please listen to me briefly”

Suddenly Coco came from beside me and stood in front of Aldi. I was shocked to death. I got caught by Coco. The gawatt!!! Coco must be mad at me.

“Listen first what Vivi will say.then you can go”ucap Coco

“Alright..what does sister Vivi want to say?”

At that time my tongue felt muddy. I'm confused what to say? Because there's Coco beside me. Coco then grabbed my hand. Makes me even less aware of what to say.

“I and Vivi have made”ucap Coco

“Really? Congratulations to y'all”sahut Aldi in a cynical tone.

“I hope you can keep your promise that time to release Vivi. From now on forget Vivi.because Vivi is mine”.

“Co..”

“Alright.promise is promise. I will keep my promise, to release Vivi's sister.and you must also remember to make Vivi” happy

The conversation between these two men really confused me. Confused as to how. In a way, Coco is my boyfriend, my girlfriend. The man I love so much. On the other hand, Aldi is a good friend of mine who has always been there for me. Her true feelings for me, her attention and presence during my “part” from Coco.

Finally Aldi stood in front of me and extended his hand to me.

“Good sister.finally brother made up with a guy that sister likes. I'm happy for brother”

“Thanks Al.I pray that you also soon meet the girl you like and like you also”

We shook hands, but not for long because Coco immediately pulled me away from Aldi. Coco took me to the car. Along the way to the car, Coco did not say a word. He kept quiet. Makes me feel guilty for lying to her. Coco then opened the car door, telling me to sit down. But he stays outside.

He was standing outside the car leaning on his car with both hands folded in front of his chest. Coco kept quiet. I called him several times not at all.

“Co? Coco? you're angry huh?”

“Co? By dong.jangan diem aja”

“Co?”

Coco's silence made my heart very sad and finally made me cry. I'm sorry I lied to him.

“Sorry yes.I lied”kataku while sobbing

Coco's silence made my heart filled with guilt. We just finished it, but I let Coco down on me.

I'm sad. I wiped the tears that were dripping down my cheek. I can only bow my head. I dare not look Coco in the face. The face of Coco's disappointment.

Suddenly Coco sat crouching in front of me.

“Why cry? I'm not crying anymore”he said to me while wiping my tears.

“Sorry yes.I lied earlier. I just want to talk to Aldi. But I'm afraid you're angry, which is why I lied”

“Iya.I know. Don't cry anymore”

“Sorry, I've hired you”

Coco took my hand and smiled at me.

“I was angry. I don't like you lying”

“Iya.maaf”.

“Udah ya cry”ucap Coco while smiling at me.

“From now on, don't ever lie to me again..I don't like”

I'm nodding. He stroked my head gently.

“Deleted first it snot”goda Coco to me

“I ain't ga ingusan”protesku

He chuckled while pinching my cheek. Maybe because of the anxiety.

We also returned to the field to attend the pension event again. All the way to the field Coco kept holding my hand. Making the committee and junior sister of a new senior candidate who happened to cross paths with us, even splash himself. I saw them smiling when they greeted me.
