The sun is cooperated with our plan, my friends’ and mine. Sunny day. We were going to make our dreams come true—even though it’s just our imagination—visiting horses’ stable in order to get some knowledge about horse and to ride it just like the princess. We promised to meet up in our campus at 8 A.M so as soon as we could leave to the stable. Promise was just a promise which was so hard to be done. The two of us were late. Does the princess late in fairy tale? We kept waiting for them on the bridge that really close to our campus. While waiting, we stared at the cars and motorcycles that passed by, hoping that our friends who were still on the way would coming soon. As we had known an information from the horse’s keeper that the horse would be stabled at about 11:30 A.M, our hearts went fast...

This city also has many positive things, just like some historical places and buildings, delicious foods, and many more.

Sambil berjalan cepat, sesekali aku melirik jam tangan hitam yang melingkar di pergelangan tangan kiriku. “Sepertinya kita akan buka di jalan nih.” Kataku pada teman-teman. “Iya juga ya,” kata Raihan, salah satu temanku.

Setelah selesai berbenah, Gadis berparas timur tengah itu bergegas meraih mantel berwarna coklatnya, yang tak jauh dari meja kasir tempat yang ia duduki sekarang. Tak lupa, ia juga melingkarkan syal tebal berwarna putih di lehernya yang senada dengan warna hijabnya. Maklum, di luar sana, salju di bulan Desember sedang turun dengan derasnya—hingga kota bak di selimuti dengan mantel putih nan bersih namun beraura kaku.

Setelah menggembok rapi pintu pagar toko, segera ia melesat meniggalkan toko menuju apartemen yang ditinggalinya bersama paman dan bibinya. Turunnya salju yang disertai hembusan an...
