Kring...Kringg...

The bell is ringing. There is a man with bald head and warm smile appear open restaurant door. He sit in that position. Always. Every he come.

Then he certainly stare at me played a violin. He just stare then eat what his order when I try to smile back him. It happened every he come.

Actually I never care about him. Even he come or leave since the first he came. But, there is something make me curious. He always come then sit in that middle, in front of stage. He always watch my violin performance. Staring with sad face then he eat the food while I stop playing. I just don't understand with that man.

"Ben, a man in there always look at me when I played a song and always in that spot so, I can recognize him"

Ben, my close friend just laughs when I tell him about that weird man.

"Maybe he interest in your performance. It just a simple thing!" he told, not stop laughing me. Then I glare at him so he stopped laugh.

"But, I feel...different. He showed her sadness when I stop played. Like...he had something in her mind when look at me" I opinioned. Once this, Ben start listened. He frown her forehead but just listen to me.

"Then...you need approach him" he suggested me.

Once night, our restaurant close early. I had promise to get the car with Ben. He offered bring me back to house. Before it, I will lock the door but the bells ringing beside the 'CLOSE' word was hang on. I look at the door opened. There was that man.

"Sorry Mr, we had close the restaurant" I give apologize gaze. Then I lock the door.

He was just stare at me with no interest then left. Make me wonder. I want restrain him but, someone called me.

"Who is that man?" Ben asked.

"He was someone I told you" Ben look at me with curious face but, I don't care. I Just keep the silent.

That man never late watch me play the violin but today he disappear. Just now, he come when the restaurant close. Honestly, I am curious about him. Day by day he always on my mind.

The next day, I change the song. Once this, I arranged it. Hope that man like my instrument. But, that afternoon. He was unseen. Usually I played the violin in afternoon until sunset time. Then at night I just escort the singer. Not single played.

I bow my face while the rest time. Ben, walk to me give a bottle mineral water.

"Thanks"

"Wow, your song truly nice. Are you arrange that?"

I just nod then bow again. I can't hide the my feeling. I feel disappointed. Not knowing the reason.

"He wasn't come today" I truly told her my disappointed.

"Maybe something happen to him so, he wasn't come. Are you...missing him?" Ben stare with flirted face. Try to tease me.

"Take it cool, Clare! Smile c'mon"

Then, I go up to stage again. Play for the last time tonight.

Since that night, he never come again. I feel losed and don't know what the reason. I play a violin with no passion. Then forget him in my mind. But, I can't deny my feeling. He always appear in the middle my violin performance and late night before I sleep. That is continuously bothered me.

Well, then Am I fallen for him?

"Clare! Clare... You have a note message"

I accept that note message that given by my friend. Without ask, I hurried read the message.

JS

I seek this sender note. JS. Finally I know his name, although just initial. Then I catch him gazed me with interest. I smile wide subconsciously at him. Then starts fiddle the violin. Present my arrangement song.

I found my passion again. His exist make my performance like in the middle big concert. Showing my best and channeled my deep feeling for him. I close the eyes when the instrument in best part. But, in the end song I feel that sadness. That face showed me this feeling again. I wonder what in her mind. Because when I stop played, he show a buried face such hide something that make me curious.

In that time, I went to Ben which sit near the window. Talk to him that I must know JS.

"Please, help me. Tell...I want to know more about him. Take time to talk. Why he just watch me played a violin." I give Ben a letter then begged at him.

Ben stare at me think a moment before he nod his head. Then he went to that man. I just watch them through the window. Grip each other hand, hope he will accept my letter. Not long, he read my letter. Then he face me and show a sad face again. I try give him a smile, but my heart just lose when he talk to my friend and leave with difficult expression.

When Ben walked, my heartbeat cannot restrain. Moreover, Ben just stare at me with difficult mean.

"This is maybe last time he attend to see you played a violin"

Then, Ben give me a letter from that man and some ear helper.

Keep play a violin. I'd like to see your performance. It grow a spark of my live. Remind my past as violin player. I just can't continue my dream because ear problem. I know you must shock knew this reality. When I just sat in that place, look at you played a violin. It touched my deepest feel. Then, remember the big mistake in the past and make me felt the sadness.

I have an ear problem because my tumor. It's also destructive my entire organ. Include my eyes, I won't blind and cannot see you anymore. Now, I am in an attempt to cure my illness.
