"When was the last time I saw the beauty of the world, where there are many colors sorrounds me."

Klen talked to himself while wondering of his life now. He was a succesful before, he had a nice job where he was the manager. But because of loving in a wrong girl his world began to change. He gave up his job just to follow the girl he loved. He thought it's worth sacrificing his status in life for that girl but what he thought was wrong. The girl was changed when she arrived in the place where the girl stayed. He was ignored and forsaken. He kept on begging not leave him. He bended on his knees for many days. He spent all his money just to get the girl back. Like sending flowers, treating a dinner date and sometimes sing a song at the front of a girl's house. But all was like nothing, the girl still denied the feelings of Klen. He went back home when the girl brought a man in her house and Klen saw them kissing outside the door.

As he arrived home he was broken. He didn't feel like having a job at the moment. He want to make himsilf everyday drunk. He hated the world so much. He avoided the people arround, he went outside when he already drunk. After a year he thought he is ready so he decided to apply a job. He went back to the company where he was the manager. But the there's someone replaced him and the boss didn't like what he did so he was denied. For a long days of searching a job and choosing one. He realize that he didn't want to work anymore.

He slowly paddling his firsherman's boat going towards the seashore. He see many people waiting to buy fish from fisherman directly. Even in the crowded people he saw one unfamiliar girl swimming near the seashore. He did first glimpse of the girl but not contented, he do it again but still not enough, he do it again and again till he reaches the seashore. He is curios who is that girl but afraid to ask. The girl is so beautiful, she has a kind face. She enjoyed playing with the children. She keep on starring in the girl when suddenly the girl look back and smile. He immediately turn his head and don't know what to do. He then put the fish out of his boat. The children notice his fish that caught, then the children suddenly run towards him. When the children suddenly the lady after them.

"Teacher, teacher look what he caught."

The lady seems embarass so she smiled.

"Mister can I buy one kg of fish.?"

Klen is so shy to answer that makes his words.

"s-----u-----r------e-----, .ma'am."

The lady was surprised because Klen didn't recognize her. It's intriguing for her since she's the daughter of the Maylr in the Town and also she's a teacher.

"Maybe you aren't from here mister."

Klen just nod his head while his face was covered with dress to cover it from the heat of the sun.

"By the way my name is Rish, I live here and you are?."

Klen just shake his head saying "no" because he is shy to introduce himself. He is not used to his looks if introducing himself. His face was covered with mustache and beard and has a long hair. The lady feels insulted because Klen didn't remove the cover of his face. He noticed that the girl feels annoyed. He want to introduce himself but he really is shy. The lady is very beautiful and he is afraid that the lady won't like his untidy face.

"well, who cares." Klen's mind speak to himself.

"Klen, don't worry Maam Rish is a nice woman that's why we knew her well." Dodong, His friend and a fisherman also talking to Klen as he smilling.

Klen slowly remove his face cover and said.
"My name is Klen and Im not from here but I have relatives here." Then he face backward and Rish smile and look on Dodong like wanted to ask. "What's with him." Dodong just smile back and said. "By the way Maam Rish here's your order, I guess Klen can't face your beauty."

The children bring the fish after Rish give the money to Dodong. Klen start looking at Rish after she walked away. Rish notice Klen looking at her then she smiled like teasing Klen. Dodong laugh as he saw Klen looking at Rish then turn his face back when Rish see him looking at her.

Klen and the others go to the school because the teachers ask help in cleaning the office. Klen went to the school early. Even though he is shy to see Rish, still he wants to see her face. He arrived at the office early so that not too many will arround yet. But when he reach the gate of the school he saw Rish opening the gate and she's been troubled on it. He wanted to hide but she's worried on Rish. He is hesitate to come over, he think of it again and again. He wanted to go but somethings stopping him not to. He keep on murmuring and he didn't notice that Rish is already looking at her. When he start looking on Rish, it's too late because Rish already saw her. He think of reason to goes back in his way. He is embarass so any reason will be possible. "maybe". Klen clap his hand, close his eyes and slowly turn back then said. "Ah....I forgot something." But before make his first step in going back she heard Rish saying.
"Don't even think of making that step or else."
Klen stop his foot in the air then slowly step on backward towards Rish. Rish smilling as he turn back.

"You know I've been troubled here, whay are you so shy?because of your looks? I guess your handsomr if you clean your face."

Klen didn't answer and start opening the gate. He thought Rish is at the back of his left side so when he give the keys to Rish he looks in the other way. But failed because when Klen look in the other way there is the face of Rish smilling and said.

"I'm here....."

Klen slowly give the keys while looking in different direction to avoid an eye contact with Rish. They get inside and people are coming in the school. Rish keep on talking while Klen just answered what the questions are. Then their story begins....
