The Angel of Time

The Angel of Time
Chapter 57


The blue sky that morning made us seem even more excited to get on with the journey.


Goodbye, Grenden, see you next time. Hopefully there will be a next story that will be engraved with the same person. Yeah, that's the hope. The simplicity that I'm trying to present this turns out to be unexpected. This natural place made him so happy. On the other hand, there is something that makes me feel confused as well. Sometimes his attitude changes in an instant for no reason I know.


If she says labile, I think she's an adult. He can get angry just because he thinks negatively about me. Yeah, just assuming he's on his own, but can be mad at the guy. Sometimes misunderstandings can not be avoided just because if he joking fit again in talking seriously. And sometimes when I joke, he takes it seriously. That's how it is...


"Are you ready?" I asked while turning on the starter motor, then,


"Corn.." She answered while tidying up her headscarf,


"So we're heading straight for the square right?" My tofu,


"Yes.. But we have to catch up with time to get to the beach at sunset!" Obviously Astrid,


We left Grenden, leaving a natural atmosphere of silence. A soothing silence to forget the atmosphere of the city is quite noisy. What I feel is indeed comfortable, the cool and fresh air that continues to bind me to always want to continue to breathe it. The trees around and the asphalt road will be a witness of my journey with Astrid from Kopeng to Jogjakarta Beach, a woman who always eager to show her cheerfulness to the people around. That's a pleasant aura...


Black Honda beats still accompany us down the road uphill and also derivative. This journey made me think about this feeling.


What else after this? When I say his name, my heart can shake. Being around her made me have nothing else to think about. Until this heart also feels ordinary. Feeling longed when away, happy to hear the sound of his laughter. I pondered whether all this would end after he left Jogja.

"Glho.." Astrid called from behind,


"Hmm..?" Answer,


"I'm thirsty!" He said,


"Want to get a drink first?" My tofu,


"Nyari indomaret what alfamart we are.."


"Okay, in front of that is Alfamart, we stop there!"


Time shows at 12.00 WIB. We stopped in Alfamart for a break, the scorching sun that made this throat like a loss of fluid so we decided to buy a cold drink.


"Satkvnk"


The sound of Alfamart's door seemed to drag when it was opened by Astrid who also grasped two bottles of cold drinks. He walked over to me and placed the two bottles on the table in front of me. Astrid sat on the empty chair earlier. His face looked lethargic but still refreshing to my eyes.


"Hmmmmm." Astrid's voice after gulping down the cold drink,


"Where are we going to eat?" Astrid asked as she closed the bottle she was holding,


"Are you hungry?" My tofu,


"Yes, he said he wanted to eat the number one best chicken noodles.." He said,


"Haha.. Yeah, want the best number one what's number three?" My tofu,


"Imagical number one, where?"


"It's gonna be a little while we're in Muntilan." Answer,


"Yeeeeeeay..!"


"Well, are we continuing, right?" My tofu,


"Heyukk..!"


We hurried to leave Alfamart. It was indeed a very bright day, and the heat was also very felt. And this time we went to the place to eat, Chicken noodles in Plazza Muntilan, Chicken Noodles the number one. Who is claiming? Yes, I myself hahaha..


Because I think there the chicken noodle sauce is getting into the noodles, the chicken pieces are also longer - long, there is a meatball topping as well. The aroma is also very lezzzzzzzaaaat.. I like to rate the deliciousness of chicken noodles that I find delicious. Our match about culinary likes is very fun, not because we like to travel to culinary anyway, but like to eat aja haha..


Astrid is the same, she likes to eat. From the place we went, he preferred to eat in a simple place. Pecel catfish, angkringan, chicken noodles, meatballs, yes, the point is he chose in a simple place.
