his story is begin in the last day of my Senior High School. Because since that time I never meet her again. Tia, yes, she is Tia, the girl who always stay on my mind. All of her inner beauty, her tenderness, her care, I can lie myself it always improves my days. I don’t know since when I think about her. But actually I want to meet her again, more and more. Now I realize that the comfortable when I beside her which is make me feel something missing now.
But now is different at all. I work at one of famous Bank in Indonesia. I just come back to this city for a calling of move-duty. About 2 years ago I finished my study in another town, then I work there. I hope I can find her and make my dream comes true: meet and make a relationship with her. She is mature in character, feminine with her long hair and the soft-spoken make her become a woman with the mother feeling that hmm… very ideal to stay alive beside me.
Tok…tok…
Someone knock my room’s door, that is my mom who is coming to wake me up.
“Oh, I thought you are still sleeping. Its well if you go to take a bath now, this is almost 7 o’clock, don’t you want to make a good impression in the first day you work?”. My mother said. “Yes, mom. Thank you very much”. I answered. Actually I am not a child again, I am already work, but my mom is still subjected me like when I was in the school 7 years ago. May be it because I am the last child of my parents. I always do as best as I can to make my parents proud of me.
“Angga, you are already work and I think in good position too. So, what are you waiting for? Lets get merried, dude”. My father ask. “Uhuk…!” I am choke, the question feel like a big storm that attack directly into my heart. I drink a glass of milk in the front of me. “Be slow, son”. My mother said accusingly. “Hmm… I just not find yet who is click with my heart, Dad”. I answered shuffling. “don’t be too selective, its could because you want a high type of criteria”. Moms added. “Not seems like that Mom”. I defend my self. “If its true, I will introduce you to the daughter of my friend. She is beauty and also works in the hospital”. Dad suggested. “Well, I have to go now. I almost late. See you..”.

It is a break-time, I decide to lunch at the meet balls eatery in the next of my office. The eatery seems clean, neat and a little crowd (I think, if its crowd means that the food is delicious, conversely). There is an Elementary School in the opposite of the eatery which seems in the break-time too. After standing in line for a moment, I get my chance to order my lunch. I decide to choose the chair in the corner of the room near a window, because its almost full and fortunately I get an empty chair.
“Excuse me, may I sit here? Cuz, there are not place more”. Suddenly someone ask me. I just too enjoy my lunch till I don’t care that someone in the presence of me.
“OMG, are you Angga?”. She shout little bit loud, but the room is too crowd, no one cares about it. “Tia?” I am shock.
“Yes, this is me”. She hugs me. I’m really shock, but not a culture shock. I am feel so happy. “It is like a surprise for me, I never think we will meet here after losing contact since the day of Senior High School graduated”. She starts. “Yes, so do I. What do you do?” I ask wit all of my happiness. “There, in that school as an English teacher”. She answers. “Wow, that’s cool”. Tia seems beautiful with the teacher’s uniform, her hair is straggling and she also uses high heels. Too elegant and make me flying away to the wind. “What about you?”.she ask more. “in the Bank beside of this resto”. I answer. “I think you seem more beautiful now”. “stop your nonsense. Who is your girlfriend now?”. “No..! I mean, I just still alone”. I answer with my big spirit. “You kidding me…?”. “No, I am telling you!”.

Teng… teng…
“Wow, I have to back, dude. It is time to teach”. “Ok, will we meet again?”. “Absolutely yes, this is my number”. “its already paid, sir”. The cashier say. “What? Well, thank you so much”. Tia has paid my lunch. I just feel like a mess.

Tit… tit…
“In the Bunga Café, at 7 o’clock ya…”
“Ok, see you there…J”
“In the Bunga Café, at 7 o’clock ya…”
“Ok, see you there…J”
That’s my and Tia’s messages. I just can not wait more. I take my bath and prepare myself. I wear a black shirt, but after I look myself on the mirror, I am not confident. I think I have to wear T-shirt only to make me more casual. “Hey girl, what do you think? Am I look handsome tonight?” I said and I hit Ayu Ting-Ting’s face. No, I mean I throw my pillow to the big poster.
“What the hell… Lalala…”.
I play the spirit song of me. With make my car a little bit faster, I hope to arrive early than her.
It was about 15 minutes I sit here. The atmosphere is so romantic and I am stringing up my words in my mind. “Hi, did you so long here? I’m sorry to come late”. She greets. Once more, Wow she seems very different tonight. She wear a black blouse, seems sexy and the important point, she sits in front of me. “Hello…”. She pats my shoulder. “Eh… Em… Sorry I just arrive too”. My pretend, if its not you I leave 5 minutes ago. “what do you want to eat?”. “No. I am not hungry”. “ok, I want to eat Javanese salad”. She order and back with the food. I just silent, I am nervous, I want to say what I have to say. Finally I determine to figure it out. “Tia, don’t you know, actually I like you so long but I just realized since we’ve separated”. “what???”. She is stopping her eating and looking so deep into my eyes. “Are you aware with what you’ve said?”. I am nodding. “Why don’t you ever to find me, I am also felt the same with you. But I drop it to the backyard, cuz I think you have another girlfriend there”. “So, lets start our love now!”. “I can’t”. “why, don’t you love me?, don’t you want to have a family and children from me?”. “yes, I want, but I can’t”. “why?”. “I just already engaged. Next week is my wedding”. She take something out from her purse. “This is my invitation for you. Wish you were”.

Suddenly someone come and smile at her. “Oh, this is David, he will be my husband, honey, this is Angga. My old friends”. she explain. “Hi, nice to meet you”. He greets me. “Hi, me too”. I answer. “Ok, Angga. I have to go home now. See you again ya…”. She farewell. “See you bro”. David adds.
Prannkkk… my heart broke like a mirror become a piece. I just keep silent and still stand on my position. She has gone away with her fiancé and let me alone here. I just can regret myself that late to explore the content of my heart. But may be it’s the best for me. While there are I Hate Luv Story movie, I love happy ending. Everybody wants happy ending. I hate sad ending, but it happen to me right now. I just keep dump with a regret without the thousand words. My tears falls and make a dot of hoping.
