Doubtful, long enough to be left ringing, Joy decided to pick up the phone.
"Hello, good afternoon, this is with Joy?" the voice of the guy across there.
His voice was low, friendly. The distinctive tone of a young man.
"Yes, I'm Joy, who is this with?" suhut Joy is a bit stubborn. He almost sprayed the caller, because it was thought the same person with the wrong one connected back and forth yesterday.
"It's me, Rey. We were yesterday acquaintances in chat. Hello to you."
Joy did not respond immediately. But that guy's tone of voice, he likes it. Like familiar, like music in his ears, and he just wanted to linger listening to him.
"Hi Mr. Rey. Yes, it's Joy. Hello also."
And the conversation continues. They introduced each other. Rey attended a top university, majoring in Information Technology. She loves photography, and lives alone away from her parents in another country. In short, Rey sounded quite friendly, Joy felt familiar. "Ups, no, no feelings yet. Just want to make friends first, there's no purpose, it's okay?" his inner.
Exchanging phone numbers, Joy and Rey occasionally start SMS-an. And that week, almost every night they communicate without knowing each other's faces. The conversation is more intense, until they begin to know the nature and liking of each even though only through the exchange of words.
They're getting closer, feeling more comfortable. Joy laughs a lot, and smiles herself because Rey jokes a lot and tells funny jokes. Like two friends who have known for years.
Remembering her mother's message. "Joy, careful. Do not be careless to get acquainted in cyberspace. Moreover, you almost graduated college. Don't date first. Concentrate on your script."
Ah, it's not this date. 'Master' Rey or 'Sir' Rey, so Joy called her new acquaintance, it seemed like a polite man. He likes to secretly imagine, what his face looks like, his stature. Do not want to hope all sorts of first, get acquainted no problem right, just be careful. If Mr. Rey messes around, just refuse.
It was ringing in Joy's ear the problem one of her friends told her about. Meet guys, start liking, finally they meet and make up. But then he was forced to break up the relationship, because the man's husband people.
"What if Mr. Rey is also someone's husband?" inner Joy fear.
Waduh, shrewd. Not to mention that he turned out to be a fraud. Look for young girls on the internet who are easy to prey on. Moreover, he is completely random aka random, whether real students or not, actually live where or not.
Joy, though quiet, is not a cowardly girl. Before guessing anything, he asks Rey for an address, arguing that he wants to exchange photos and letters. At that time, even though it was able to communicate via email, but still tend to send messages through ordinary mail, and stamps are still common. Rey agrees, and Joy manages to pocket the address Rey mentions.
"I'll investigate later." she said inwardly. Certainly without the knowledge of anyone. "Mama too, he wouldn't just agree if I met a guy, in cyberspace anyway."
The address of the house that Rey mentioned was not far away either. So, leave Joy alone, secretly, there.
It turns out Rey has a big motorcycle that is a bit old. "Hm. Motorcycle guy, not car guy. But gapapa, it's good to be hugged when going on a date. Oops, why think like that?" Joy was dizzy herself.
In his fad, he sat on the bike. "Gedubrak !!!"
"Ups. Aww." Joy accidentally falls off the bike. The voice of a man with a high tone followed from inside the house. "Who is that?"
Joy hurriedly crammed behind the walls of the house. A young man came out of the house and checked the crashed motor. "Must be the street kids prank again." he lamented, after checking for a moment he went back into the house.
"Feey." So nervous, Joy did not get to see his face, but her voice was Rey's. "So he really does exist, and he lives here."
I don't know why, he became anxious himself. And just be curious! "I have to ask for a picture! Request a photo of Mr Rey!"
And finally night came. Joy and Rey chatted as usual, until Rey suddenly said, "So my bike was accompanied by bad kids again. Fortunately it wasn't broken. I just have that vehicle."
"Oh." Joy is acting concerned. "I like motorized guys. Can be held on a date. Oops." he didn't know why he suddenly spoke like that. Rey laughs. "You don't have a boyfriend yet? I'm also."
Then the topic changed. They tell each other their love lives. Rey once dated a girl a little younger. But the chick likes poya-foya, goes to discos and stuff. Rey did not like it, finally he broke the relationship well.
"I was too once. But I'm not sad, because dating without love is hard" Joy said.
"We haven't seen each other yet." Rey's voice suddenly excited. "Let's send a photo and a small gift."
"God. After seeing me, will Rey still be interested in getting to know me?" doubt Joy in heart.
Joy began to be overwhelmed with turmoil again. Feeling himself inferior, unattractive, tomboyish. But he felt, there was something interesting in Mr. Rey. He must meet, ups, get to know Mr Rey even more deeply!
They send letters to each other, and Joy deg-degan half-deadly waits for Mr. Rey's reaction. Take a few days anyway, not a special flash. More exciting, right?
Unfortunately, Joy will soon be following the Final Project, the thesis trial. Mama Joy does not want the last month of college is disrupted because of mobile phones. He also experienced this unfortunate thing. Mama confiscated her cell phone and was forced not to contact Mr. Rey for a while. Ordinary phone does exist, but under the supervision of his mother.
"Well, how do I contact Mr Rey?"
"When his letter and picture arrive, I don't think I'd be interested in being friends with him." Joy said.
