Between Love and Corona
There's No Second Chance

The next morning, Surya wishes to visit the Moon's residence. Indeed last night with the arrival of Moon's parents to his home was enough to be proof that his relationship with the Moon should end. It also did not escape the rash actions he had done before. Every hour, the man felt uneasy about meeting the Moon.

Unfortunately, his intention to immediately meet was done because Moon was still teaching at School. Indeed, during the pandemic, all students did school from home using internet technology. However, all teachers and teachers still have to go to school to fulfill their obligations to teach online from school. That's what the Moon does, almost every day the Teacher Mother always leaves in the morning to the school where she teaches, and goes home at noon.

By late afternoon, Surya began to turn on his motorcycle. Silently, the man again put the velvet red box in which his engagement ring was returned by the Moon parents yesterday into his pants pocket. With hope, it was possible that if he came well and apologized, the Moon would accept him.

Gathering all his courage and confidence, Surya came to the Moon's house.

"Assynnnya ... Good afternoon." greet Surya as soon as he enters the gate of the Moon house.

"Walaikumsalam ..." said Bu Sundari who was apparently in front of the house and watering his plants there.

"Sore Ma'am .. sorry, I came here to meet the Moon."

Like someone who excuses and comes to visit, Surya also said his intention to meet with the Moon.

Seeming a little hesitant, finally Bu Sundari nodded his head, then he invited Surya to sit first.

"Sit down first, let me call the Moon" said Mrs Sundari who then went into the house and climbed the stairs to the Moon's room.

"Sir, outside there is Surya who is looking for you" said Bu Sundari who told the Moon that outside there is Surya who is waiting for him.

The girl seemed hesitant, should she go back to see Surya. In his heart, he was reluctant to meet Surya. The moon looked at his mother. "Does the Moon have to meet Mom?" ask with lirih.

As a Mother, Ms. Sundari also knew enough that the Moon seemed reluctant to meet again with Surya. Therefore, Miss Sundari also patted her daughter's shoulder.

"As a polite host ..it's okay to be found first. After all, even though last night your Father and Mother had stated directly to the Surya family, but your problem still must be resolved properly. Meet him, and listen to him for a moment" said Sundari, who advised the Moon.

Grunting what his mother advised, the Moon still looked reluctant. "If Surya is rough again to the Moon, how is Mom?" ask the Moon to her mother.

"No need to fear the Moon .. This is your own home. If Surya acts rude again, you just yell and Mom will come out to help you. Don't be afraid in your own home." said Bu Sundari reassured Moon that her daughter was not afraid.

"What's wrong?" that question sounds so to the point to Surya. As if not want to linger face to face with the man who once filled his days for 6 years.

Surya watched the Moon for a moment, before he finally opened his voice."Here's the Moon, first I came here to apologize. Sorry to make my mistake yesterday, to be honest yesterday I was so emotional and couldn't hold myself back until I finally hurt you." she apologized to the Moon.

The snoring and sighing of the Moon let out. For him it is not easy to forgive Surya yesterday. His rude actions to hurt the corner of his lips, for the Moon actually made the girl feel harassed. However, not wanting to linger, the Moon nodded.

"Yes I'm sorry." she answered briefly.

Hearing that the Moon had forgiven him, Surya was relieved. Finally the girl he had loved for a long time and accompanied him since on the gray white bench was willing to forgive him.

"Since you have forgiven, is there a second chance for me? Enter me, we can repair our relationship again. Starting from the beginning?" surya asked with a witty look. The man looked at the moon with his eyes.

The head was faintly done by the Moon. "Even if I forgive you, but I'm sorry .. We can't be together anymore." said the Moon in a soft voice.

The answer the Moon gave was a dagger-like speech that drew his chest sharply. The man looked down his face, he did not think that an apology, but did not open the door of opportunity for him.

"What makes you unable to start again with me, Moon? Isn't the relationship that has been running for 6 years is very dear if it has to end just like that." said Surya who certainly asked for an explanation from the Moon.

From behind the white mask that she was wearing, the girl smiled bitterly."The length of a relationship will not guarantee the quality of the relationship itself. We were together for 6 years, but in fact for 6 years as if I was the only one waiting, only I was patient. The peak when you say pause, I was waiting, waiting without a definite answer. Then, when yesterday everything happened, I guess, we can't be together anymore Surya. I feel at the point of culmination right now. Loving you, waiting for you, all got me on the cusp. All the selfishness, the possessiveness, and the rudeness you showed me made me choose to end this relationship." the Moon explained so long ago to Surya.

There was a feeling of relief, as he dared to say that he was at the breaking point of being able to love and wait. Moon felt, did not want to be with the man who would ask her who kept waiting uncertain. The man who had acted violently kissed her by force. The moon really doesn't want it. He wants to have a relationship with healthy qualities.

"So there's no second chance for me?" ask Surya again to the Moon.

The girl seems to bite her inner lips, she must have the resolve now and must not waver anymore.

"Sorry ... Sorry Surya. I don't think there's a second chance. Better to get here. Our story is over, Surya. Sorry." he said as he lowered his head with his heart feeling crushed at this time. The harsh reality must occur, the length of a relationship does not guarantee the quality of the relationship itself. That's what the Moon is doing right now. Sacrificing 6 years, in the hope that he is not restrained in a relationship that only makes him always wait.
