NICE TO MEET YOU
My
name is Kur. I live in Bekasi. I live with my nephew. We live in a big housing
complex. Living in a big city is funny. We do not know one another among
neighbors. Neither do i. I do not know my neighbors, even my next neighbors.
This condition like this is common in a big city. It is also logical, because
everybody is busy, like me. I leave for work at 6.30 a.m and come back at 6 p.m
everyday from Monday until Saturday. On Sunday I rarely go out. I use Sunday to
take a rest or ti visit my relatives.
Although
I live in Bekasi, actually I was born in Brebes. I grew up in Brebes too. I
move to Bekasi after finishing my university. My parents also still live in
Brebes. At least twice a year I come back to my hometown . beside I miss my
parents I also miss my peace full city.
Now
I am on the train. I am travelling to Brebes. I am going to visit my parents.
Because it is almost Idul Fitri day, the train is very crowded . although it is
an executive train. But I am lucky enough I still get seat . and it is luckier
I sit beside a beautiful girl. I introduce my self to her
“
Hello, my name is Kur.”
“
Nice to meet you Kur. My name is Mela.”
‘
Nice to meet you too. Where do you live ? I ask.
“
I live in Taman Alamanda Housing Complex Blok ED1 No.51.” Mela says
“
I live in Taman alamanda Complex too. I live in Blok ED1 No.50. so you are my
next door neighbor. Nice to meet you.”
“
Nice to meet you too.”
