Earth Without Dusk

Earth Without Dusk
16. Lunch Earth and Nesya


“Hallo, my best friend who is most kind to the earth,” greet Dusk when lifting a call from his best friend, Viona.


“Hallo too, my friend who is super busy once now, until replying to my message was a long time ago,” said Viona in a satire.


Even twilight laughed at Viona's words. He knew, at this time Viona must be upset with him because they rarely communicate again since Dusk has been actively working in his father's company.


“Sorry, sorry, understand, the name is still an adjustment, so a little busy,” said Dusk while typing something on the laptop in front of him.


“Yes, yes, Miss Dusk Wijaya, I get it. Oh yeah, what are you doing now? Want to have lunch together?” ask Viona.


He looked at his watch. Less than five minutes left at 12, almost a break.


“I didn't realize it was almost lunchtime. Where do you want to take me to eat? You're not working today?” ask Dusk anyway.


“Work dong. But I'm again on the road there's a duty outside the office. So, what do you want to have lunch with me?”


“Bby. We met at a regular restaurant, yes,” said Dusk.


“OK. See you there.”


Dusk immediately rushed to close his laptop and then went to catch up with Viona at the restaurant where they used to eat.


Arriving there, Dusk meets Viona in the parking lot. Then they both went into the restaurant. When you go inside, Dusk look left and right looking for a place that is still empty. Because of lunch time, so visitors at the restaurant is quite crowded.


While looking for an empty table, the eyes of Dusk caught a familiar figure eating with a woman who looked elegant and elegant. Dusk saw Earth and Nesya were having lunch together at that time.


The Heart of Dusk suddenly pulsed. He felt unwilling to see Earth spend time with Nesya. But weren't they already set up? That's natural isn't it if they look together? I don't know, it feels jealous to see their closeness.


“Eh, there's something still empty. Let's go there!” viona said as she pulled her hand towards the empty table there.


The position of the table was behind Nesya's seat with a considerable distance, so Nesya was not aware of the existence of Dusk there. But Earth, he could clearly see the existence of Dusk there. He was quite surprised when he saw Dusk there. There was discomfort in his heart because Dusk had to see him with another woman. But not the name Earth if it can not control the look of his face to be flat as usual.


They began ordering food and enjoying the food they ordered when it reached their table. During the meal, Dusk occasionally glanced in the direction where Earth and Nesya were sitting. His heart ached looking at that, but his eyes still stole a glance in that direction. Though he should focus on eating just so as not to hurt.


“Hey, what's wrong with you? Your food is bad?” ask Viona.


“Ha? This food? It's delicious, here I eat.” Dusk scoops the food and then feeds it into the mouth.


“But your food is still a lot, mine just stay a little. From earlier I saw you more silent,” said Viona who was strange to see the behavior of her best friend.


“Hmm. So I ate a little bit,” said Dusk reasoned.


"Why is your stomach?" ask Viona.


"So, it's a little uncomfortable. Want to come the moon maybe," replied twilight carelessly.


“There-there-is,” said Viona while shaking her head.  


“Vio, I went to the toilet for a while, yes,” said Dusk then stood up from his seat.


“Yes already, I'm waiting here. Don't be long, yes.”


“Iya, just a minute kok.”


“I accidentally ate with him here,” says Bumi suddenly.


The twilight spontaneously stopped and looked at the Earth. Actually he was a bit surprised when he knew the Earth was already next to him.


“You hobby once came suddenly,” said Dusk.


“I accidentally ate with him here,” re-Earth again.


“Iya, I heard. Whether it is intentional or not is none of my business. He was indeed betrothed to you. It's natural that you spend time together to get to know each other better,” said Dusk trying hard. His heart was quite sad to say that.


The earth does not reply to the words of Dusk. He just stared at the face of Dusk. I don't know what was on his mind at the time, Dusk couldn't guess.


After quite satisfied staring at the face of Dusk, Earth turned to leave Dusk alone there. Dusk stared at the back of the Earth that was getting away from him. Dusk scratched his head that was not itchy, he was confused by the attitude of the Earth that suddenly came and then suddenly left.

“You're already from the toilet?” ask Nesya.


The earth nodded then sat back in his chair.


“Quickly,” says Nesya.


The earth did not answer. He just nodded.


“Oh yes, I think that every day we can have lunch together like this..”.


“I don't have much time to always eat out,” cut off the Earth before Nesya can finish her words. This is all they had lunch together because Earth just happened to have an appointment with her client there. After the client left, Nesya came to him.


“Oh, okay. What about the weekend? Are you always busy on weekends too?” Nesya is still trying to spend time with Earth.  


“Usually so,” reply Earth is short.


“Busy what?” ask Nesya curiously. In his heart it was impossible that the weekend was still busy as well.


The earth turned towards Nesya. He looked at the woman in front of him with an intimidating look.


“We do have a month to get to know each other better, but I want everything to go naturally without having to be forced,” replied Earth means that she does not like Nesya forcing to always meet her.


“But if not planned, how can we meet often and get to know each other further?” ask Nesya again.


The earth seemed to sigh heavily. “No need to worry too much. If it is his destiny to meet, although not planned still there will always be a gap to meet,” replied Earth.


Like me and Dusk. Although at first we refused to see each other again, but it turns out the universe always reunited us almost every day. The impact in the heart.


Nesya was speechless with the Earth's answer. This man is not easily conquered. Very different from the men he had known before. But the more the Earth creates distance between them, the more challenged Nesya is to approach it and even have it.
