Today, I bring Risa to go to Gresik City and explore the places where I used to reflect on life. I left my house in Cerme, Gresik City, and headed to Ketintang PTT 5 to pick her up. I arrived at Risa’s bourding house around 1:00 PM, where the weather in Surabaya was extremely hot. Fortunately, Risa was still willing to come with me, or rather, to join this spontaneous date.

We headed to Mi Gacoan GKB, located in the city center of Gresik, for lunch. This place used to be a checkpoint for me and my high school friends, where we’d refresh our minds from the exhaustion of life.

After lunch, and as the afternoon approached, we went to my second reflection spot: Gresik Harbor. I used to come here often to calm my mind from problems. By watching the peaceful waves of the sea and reflecting here, I always felt that my life returned to a state of calm, allowing me to tackle everything with renewed energy. I never imagined bringing someone as special as Risa here because, like a dry desert, this place has now turned into a green savanna for me after her visit.

As the sun began to set, I took Risa to our third spot, Pucem Hill. Here, just like the previous places, I used to reflect and find peace. The difference is that this spot offers a view of Gresik’s city lights as night falls. Once again, I never thought I would return to this place after entering college, especially with someone I love. It’s an incredible feeling.

After spending the entire day in Gresik, I drove Risa back to her dorm in Ketintang, Surabaya. Then, I returned home to Gresik, arriving around 11 PM.

 Today was a day filled with wonderful and extraordinary experiences.
