TWILIGHT IN MEIRA'S HEART
Episode 36's
“Tumben late Den?” Andre asked when he saw Deni a bit late to the office.
“I was leaving from my parents' house.” Obviously Deni.
”Owh.pantes,” Andre said.
Deni heads to the desk, then turns on the laptop and starts his work. Not long after, it seemed he had yawned a few times. He threw his body on the back of the chair, then shook his head because his drowsiness was very difficult to contain. Deni headed to the pantry to make coffee.
“One cup of coffee does not seem to work, if you sleepy model gini,” complained Deni to an office friend named Tedi who happened to be making a cup of milk coffee.
“oya? What did you do last night?Ngronda?” Guru Tedi's. Deni only smiled wryly in response to Tedi's joke. He was tired this morning. Then he went back to his desk.
“Enight stay up Den?” Andre asked again when he saw Deni yawning again while rubbing his eyes.
“That's how it is,” Deni said while still trying to focus on his work.

After returning from the office Deni chose not to go home. He drove his car aimlessly. Meira is still overtime at the office. Deni car continues to drive in no direction. His eyes stared intently forward, thinking, where should he go. He needs a place to calm down. If going to the cafe is not possible, hours home office like this cafe is usually crowded visitors. Then he remembered a place, he drove his car to a place where he could calm down.
Deni smiled, looking at the blue water. The crashing sound of the waves made him forget for a moment the fatigue in his mind. The beach is beautiful. There is always calmness when you see it. So broad and limitless. Breeze breeze continues to hit Deni's face, and he also enjoyed it very much. A few moments of smiling looks adorned his face. He remembers his girlfriend. On this beach she first expresses her feelings for Meira, and how happy she is when Meira accepts her love. The love he had long desired. Her heart felt full of blazes of love, which were hard to express in words because it was too happy.
In your eyeball there is a rainbow that is rolling on the beach
Your smile makes the ocean of my heart choppy
I want to travel down the white sand of your skin
Then stop in the embrace of the coconut tree with the sigh of love of the gull
Before it goes away with the stars and the full moon
(Kahlil Gibran)
When it was so beautiful, his life felt peaceful and peaceful. It was only happiness that he had, but now, a complicated problem that he never expected came to the surface. His chest felt tight to hold back the anger. He just wants to live happily with Meira. Deni threw a stone towards the waves that were rolling towards the land while shouting long. On the beach he can vent all his emotions and anger. He gasped for a while and sat in the sand playing it. His eyes looked far away into the vast ocean.
***********
In the office, Meira seemed agitated because she could not contact Deni. “Where is Deni? Not usually she's like this,” Inner Meira. He tried calling Deni once again, but out of reach. “Or maybe he's asleep because of a tingle?” Meira tries to think positively. But not long ago he again felt anxious, because usually if you want to sleep first, Deni always told Meira.
Meira drives her car to Deni's house. He really felt anxious, afraid of anything happening with Deni. Bad thoughts swirled in his head, but as soon as possible he was pushed aside.
The car kept going. Arriving at Deni's house, Deni's house still looks dark, and his car is also not in the carport. “Berati Deni hasn't come home yet,” murmured Meira.
He let out a long sigh, he no longer knew where to look for Deni.
Meira glances briefly at Julia's house from the rearview mirror of her car. Julia's house also looks lonely. Meira threw away her negative thoughts. “There is no way Deni went with Julia.” Meira muttered to calm down.
“Oh yes cafe Chez,” Meira remember something.
With fatigue Meira drove back her car headed to the Chez cafe. He hopes to find Deni there.
Arriving at the Chez cafe, Meira again swallowed disappointment, he did not find Deni there. Then he tried to contact Deni's friends, but the result was nil, no one knew of Deni's whereabouts.
Meira was still pensively alone in the corner of the cafe. Back he saw his phone, waiting for a message from Deni, but Deni never gave him news.
🎵🎵🎵
I hear the ticking of the clock
I’m liying here the room’s pitch dark
No answer on the phone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won’t end thought
Alone
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really care until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
You don’t know how long I have wanted
To touch your lips and hold you tight
You don’t know how long I have waited
And I was going to tell you tonight
But the secret is still my own
And my love for you is still unknown
Alone
Till know I always got by on my own
I never really care until I met you
And I chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
Alone...Alone
🎵🎵🎵
***********
Deni still enjoys a vast expanse of ocean. He did not care if the day was approaching night, the waves were also getting stronger and his work clothes were dirty because they were covered in beach sand. At least he currently had some free time to make his soul happy.
Deni walks alone along the sand and beach. The sky above and the sand below, as if there was peace within. The time he wasted to enjoy the beauty of the beach is the best time, because there is no comfortable place like home except the beach. For Deni a quiet beach like this can free his soul that is murky at this time. He let his feet get water. He stood on the sand on the beach. A moment when the sea water soaked it partly, a moment later disappeared and away.
Deni interpreted his life problems like the waves on the beach, the waves will come, but in time he will stay away.
After his feelings began to calm down, Denipun stepped away from the beach.
