The One Who Heals

I didn't expect to find Indonesia

Shares

That feelings, where I was surrounded by strangers. Laughs, talks, and stories become the main components of everyone's journey to shares. It was exactly my longest solo traveling that I'd ever had in my life. A month, where my soul and mind feeling like I was in heaven. Completely In Peace, one sentence which perfectly describe my last traveling journey in Bali and Java Island. When I was arrived in Bali for the first day, I still didn't believe in love. Until I got my 6th day in Bali, I met this guy, the one that I didn't expect to find and to talk with. I still couldn't believe I could be this close to stranger, which completely unknown and acted too shy to knowing each other. The sunset, lunch and breakfast, smoothies, beaches, and walks in Bali, really driven me to the feeling where I didn't expect to find. This journey of traveling changed into grey feelings of two stranger who completely fill the heart who hurt with love and intentions. I didn't expect, there will be someone who can cheer me up, after broken into pieces in the last 6 months. He gave me the strength, the willingness to shares, and listens to all of my stories, so do I. We both stuck in the same situation, and perfectly match in a problem . Until finally, we decided to go to Java Island for a week vacation in my college town. This guy, exactly no need to think twice or third in decided to follow me to Java. We both ordered the bus ticket, and ended up to Java! I was thinking to stay in my boarding house, but my heart won't allowed me to do that. I stay with him for a week in M-town. We explore the city together, we share every little stories in our entire life, and that was crazy. I told him "if you wanna go first and moving to another city, it will be okay, because I need to see my dad first." . Instantly he said, "I will wait for you, and we both can move to another city". Never, ever I felt for being prioritized by stranger. It was totally touched my heart and starting to respect this man. We move to another city, we tried to find something new, we understand our-self more, until I know, this things won't be last forever. Because I'm going to leave him, while he keep going on his traveling. It's hard, really hard for the last 2 days, we both keep staring at each others, still didn't believe that will be over. Now, it's been a month without him, I feel completely weird without him. Where I couldn't see his smile and morning greetings, kiss in the forehead before sleep, and midnight snack and traveling channel about Jamaica. That fact really hurts me, I'm still thinking about him. But, he promise me to meet again in the near future. One sentences that he mentioned to me in the last night "Am I the One for you?". And it's still become a ghost questions to answer, because the distance and condition still can't answering this question. Last kiss before leaving to the train, I said only "Bye and Thank you". Until I realize this story completely almost the same like Before Sunrise movie. I hope, I could meet him again, to create greater stories and more adventures to go. One thing for sure, he is the one that I didn't expect to find in my Solo Traveling.
