The Legend of Minos, King of Crete
Once upon a time there lived a very famous king. He had a
monster which was half bull and half man. He ordered Daedalus, a
craftsman from Athens, to build a labyrinth in order to house the
monster. When Daedolus finished his work, he wanted to leave Crete.
But the king would not let him go.
Daedalus escaped through the air by using wings fixed to his
body with wax. He also made wings for his son, Icarus and made him
fly behind himself. But the son was so glad and excited that he soon
went too high. As he flew nearer to the Sun, it got warmer and
warmer until at last the wax melted and his body fell down into the

I Did Not Mean To Hurt You
“Hello … Yustita!” Lucy’s voice surprised me. Why not? She never
comes so early like this morning. She usually comes a few minutes
before the bell rings.
“Hi! What is wrong? You don’t look yourself today. Why did you
come so early today?”
“My father gave me a lift. By the way,. have you heard anything
about “Elsa?”
“What is the matter with her?” I asked. ”Haven’t you heard?
Everyone at school has,” she replied.
“What is it? Would you tell me, please?” I begged her.
“O.K., She is falling in love with Iwan. Don’t you know? She is
your classmate, isn’t she?”
“You are kidding! I can’t believe it is true. As far as I know,
she is a calm girl. But… how about Iwan’s response?” I asked
her .
“Wow …. I don’t know. Please ask him yourself. Iwan and you
belong to the same volleyball club, don’t you? But I think he
pays no special attention to her. Since … He loves somebody
else,” she replied.
“Who is she?” I asked.
“Well …. You’d better to ask him yourself. The bell will be
ringing soon,” she answered hurriedly and ran to her classroom.
Lucy is not my classmate. She is in the IPA (science) department
while I am in the language department.
The break finally ended. One by one, my friends entered the
classroom. It was very noisy in the classroom. The teacher was
absent and there was no special assignment.
“Tita … Are you going to play volleyball this afternoon?” Elsa
asked.
“Yes, what can I do for you?”
“I want to give this letter to Iwan. Will you help me give it to
45
him?” Elsa begged me.
“Yes, I will. Believe me. I am as good as Mr. Postman,” I said
with a smile.
“Thanks a lot for your help.”
“No problem.”
In the afternoon, I met Iwan in the volleyball court. He was
smiling when I approached him.
“Iwan ….”, I called.
“Yes, what is wrong?” he came to me with a smile.
“Here is a letter for you,” I said while handing it to him.
“Who is it from?” Iwan requested.
“Please read it yourself,” I said.
“Well, is it from your close friend?”
“Right,” I replied shortly.
Iwan was smiling when he looked at me. I was a bit annoyed by his
smile.
A week had passed when Elsa came to me and asked about her
letter.
“How about the letter?” I wonder why he hasn’t answered it yet.”
“I’m afraid I don’t know. I haven’t met him for a week. But I
promise that I will ask about it as soon as I meet him.”
“Don’t forget it, Tita”.
One evening Iwan dropped by my house to return a book which he
borrowed a few days before.
“Iwan, have you answered Elsa letter I gave you a few days ago?”
“Sorry, … I have had no time to write it. I’d rather say … I
don’t love her, but I do love someone else,” he replied.
“May I know who?”
“Well, you will know everything soon. Sorry, …. I must be off
now. Give my best regards to your parents. See you tomorrow.”
“Yes, I will. See you”.
When I was studying that evening, I found a letter in the book
which Iwan returned. I was really very surprised when I read it
….
Oh my God! What should I do? Do I like him?
46
Maybe, but how about Elsa? She is my classmate and my good
friend. It hurts to know this. Oh, no …. I will not do it. And
tomorrow I will tell him. I must find time to say it.
Iwan … I don’t mean to hurt you. I can’t love you. Please don’t
hate me. Let’s be friends till the end of time, but don’t love
me.
I can’t do that, you know. Oh God, help me explain it to
him. I really don’t know what I will do if I meet Elsa tomorrow.
Dear Yustita Indriani,
Thanks a lot of your kindness. But I am very sorry to
let you know that I do not love your friend.
If you really want to know the girl who I like the
best, her name is YUSTITA INDRIANI, the one who is reading
this letter now.
Yes, Tita, I do love you. I have wanted to say it to you
directly, but you never gave me a chance to do so.
Well, I’m waiting for your answer, dear.
With love,
Iwan Pradita(Adapted from: Hello English Magazine, 132)
