Memories of Dusk
Before Distance Separate

Before my departure to Overseas, I tried to spend my time with Dimas. We always fill our days with so many memories. Because the memories that will be a remedy for our hearts if we miss each other later. We are committed to focusing on each other to achieve our dreams in the countries we go to. And our only hope is that we can meet and unite.

This afternoon I was sitting in front of the house and Dimas called me to see him. I went to him too.

“What's up?” ask me in a quiet voice like a whisper.

“Entar afternoon road yes,” said Dimas with language isarat to me.

“OK,” replied.

“I wait for the front gate of the house at 4 pm,” said Dimas.

“Siap,” answer me.

I went into the house and got ready to leave but before I told Bik Inah first to make Inah who conveyed to father and mother that I was leaving.

“Bik Inah..” call me.

“What's wrong?” ask Bik Inah.

“I want to go. Later please convey with father and mother yes,” answered me clearly to bik Inah.

“If asked where do I answer what?” ask Bik Inah.

“Say go with my friend as well as dinner out,” I replied.

“Good neng then later bibik convey.” reply bik Inah.

****

I'm prepping. And seeing that it was 4 pm I went straight out to the front gate and Dimas was waiting there.

“You've permission, right?” ask Dimas.

“I've told Bik Inah anyway if I want to go.” my word that answers Dimas's question.

“Continue? To your father and mother no?” asked Dimas with a little annoyance at me.

“Kan can make Inah deliver,” answer me with a little ngeyel.

“Don't be so Sonya. I don't want you to be scolded again like back then,” Dimas said gently.

“Yaudah yes, I will send a message to my father and mother,” I said with a face that is not sincere to do so.

“It was much better,” Dimas said with a smile.

Dimas immediately stuck the gas and moved away. On the way Dimas suddenly pulled my hand to hold his waist.

“No papa will your hand put here?” dimas said inquiring and holding my hand. I feel comfortable being around him.

“Iya apa” replied me briefly.

“Son.. I hope the hell you there can take care of the heart,” said Dimas.

“There I want to focus on the future Dim. I don't want to open my heart to others,” I said in a clear and firm tone.

“Then if there is a man who can make you fall in love besides me how?” ask Dimas again.

“It shouldn't be me you ask. But you yourself Dim,” I replied by removing Dimas' hand.

“Why?” answer Dimas briefly.

“Yes can you stay away from me and keep your heart for me?” I said by asking.

“I'm sure I can,” Dimas replied.

“Words are not enough to be a proof,”.

“Then?” ask Dimas. He subconsciously made me feel very upset and it felt like I wanted to be mad at him.

“Your behavior will prove it later Dim.” I said in an annoyed tone.

“Yes you are right. I will try to be the best for you,” Dimas said.

“Hopefully so.” I said.

After that conversation we dined with each other without a word coming out of my mouth or Dimas. A few minutes later we arrived at our destination.

“Ayoo get off.” invite Dimas who stares at me with annoyance.

“After arrival?” my many.

“Already,” replied the indifferent Dimas and it seemed like he was mad at me.

“Why are you suddenly cuek?” ask Dimas.

“Nothing Sonya,” says Dimas.

“I'm serious,” answer me.

“Iya Son..” says Dimas.

“If you won't answer me home!” I said with tegasss.

“Sonya.. What's sihh!” said the emotional Dimas.

“You are what! Suddenly cuek kayak gini,” I said with an angry tone.

“Do you believe in me? You still doubt me,” I said with great anger. I don't understand what made Dimas not believe me.

“I don't mean so Son,” said Dimas.

“Then what? If you don't mean that?” my spoken.

“Iya okay I'm sorry,” Dimas told me.

I exhaled and tried to ease the emotions that were inherent in us.

“I'm also sorry,” I said in a slow tone and had started to ease my emotions.

“Already let's go in,” invite Dimas.

Dimas pulled my hand. And we went straight into the garden we came to.

“This park is normal. I brought you here because I know you like to see the beauty of flowers everywhere,” said Dimas.

“Kan near the house there is a garden. Why should I come here again,” I said.

“There are far more flowers than there.” Dimas said.

“Oh. Wow very beautiful,” I said by approaching the newly blooming red roses.

“You like red roses?” ask Dimas.

“Like in fact,” answered me.

“What makes you like it so much?” ask Dimas.

“His beautiful and fragrant color.” I replied.

“That's it?” ask Dimas.

“Iya, it seems so.” I replied briefly.

"Red roses are beautiful and fragrant. But there are thorns nearby, which is difficult for us to pick and get the rose.” said Dimas.

“Iya indeed,” I said.

“It was like you,” Dimas said.

“Why is that?” ask me seriously.

“Iya Yes Son. To get you takes a year for me, it's really hard.” said Dimas.

“Haha cook anyway?” I said with a laugh.

“That donk you laugh. I'm glad to see it,” said Dimas.

“Iya yes I scowl again deh,” I said.

"That's donk,” Dimas said.

We looked for a place to sit around the park. And Dimas started the conversation.

“When do you leave?” ask Dimas.

“Next week,” I replied.

“We go to the beach first yes before you leave,” invite Dimas.

“To see twilight?” my many.

“Iya. So that memories at dusk are always attached to our hearts.” said Dimas.

“Then? If those memories are already attached and you or I are not a match how?” my question started to reappear to Dimas.

“We can anytime come there to remember Son. That I was the first man to make you fall in love. And you are the woman who makes me feel love completely,” Dimas said with a look at me.

“Whatever happens in the future I believe God will have a better plan for us,”.

“Yes you are right,” Dimas said.

We enjoyed the beautiful flowers in the garden. After the afternoon, Dimas and I went home and found a place to eat in Lesehan.

“Eat there you want?” ask Dimas.

“Mie chicken?” my many.

“Iya,” replied Dimas.

“You want to,” I say with joy.

“Haha want your time, basic.” said Dimas.

“Hrhe yes I never eat that because,” I said.

“Already let's eat. You're hungry, right?” bring Dimas to me.

“Ayoo,” say.

We enjoyed the meal and after that we went home before mom and dad got home they told me to get home before them.

The meeting is the beginning where we know. And behind a meeting there may be a farewell. However, believe everything beautiful we do not have to get because in fact the Plan of God is much better than the plan we have been putting together so far.
