The moon felt that his world had collapsed. It felt like it had fallen into the ground and melted into dust. He was down to regret his stupid actions last night. Had he not drunk too much, had he gone straight into the room, had he not served the heavens, had he not...
Mama Papa Bulan just looked at her daughter with a sharp gaze, let alone Eatang Kakung. Despite being silent, Moon knew that Eyang was very angry with her.
"You're married!" Eyang cried out breaking the silence at that moment.
"What the fuck?" Sontak Bulan.
Suddenly Eyang approached the Moon and looked at her sharply.
PLAKK....
Eyang slaps the Moon. All were surprised. So surprised, all were just stunned to hold their breath and be silent. The head of the Moon was bowed deeply, his eyes could not be held back from getting wet. She cried.
"Have a lover, dare to sleep with another man?! You're creepy, huh...!!" Banging Eyeang on the Moon.
"Where is your honor as a woman, huh..!" Keep Eyang.
The moon sobbed to hear her screams.
"It's just a mistake and that's it. There's nothing else!" The Moon's Law assured Eyang.
"Nothing else?!" Eyang stared at the Moon sharply. His gaze was like a sharp knife ready to hit the heart of the Moon.
Who moved his hand, ready to raise his hand to slap his favorite grandson.
The sky rushed as quickly as possible inching forward the Moon, covering the Moon's body from the reach of Eyang's hand.
"I, Eyang. Hit me, not the Moon!" Sky Screeches.
Again the atmosphere was gripped by silence.
Eyang stared at the sky. Breathing violently. Papa Bulan immediately calmed things down.
"Well, this conversation is over." Papa Bulan. He opened his wallet and extended a business card to his Father Sky. They exchanged business cards.
The Moon and Sky could only swallow, watching their papa was like transacting business. They could only sit back and look at each other.
"Today we make sure the sky moves immediately. Yeah, right, Sky?!" Firm Papa Langit.
Though today is the plan, Sky will move to his rented house, only to lose quickly with the arrival of the Moon family and Mama Papaanya. The sky can only destroy itself.
Moon watched Mama, Papa, and Eyang leave her home from the front doorway. I didn't want to see him at that moment. His heart is very sad. My mom was the same, blaming her for her actions. Yes it is wrong, but at least, Mama can defend him, but this time not.
Only Papa was still willing to talk to her, albeit in a firm and wise tone.
"Papa go home first." Pamit Papa on the Moon patting her daughter on the shoulder.
"Yes Pa. Take care." Sahut Moon.
He wanted to hug his father, but it seemed that Eyang and Mama were still shocked to accept the reality that morning.
The moon came into the house. In the living room, Sky was talking to his parents.
Moon immediately excused them politely to enter his room. The sky stared at the Moon's flashing back behind the door. He looked at me with worry.
"Why is it so reckless like this, son?" Complain Mama.
"Sorry, Ma." Answer the Sky bowed weakly.
"Today's your birthday. It's making my own mama. Happy birthday." Mama Langit.
"Thank you, Ma. Uh... A moment." retorted Sky and immediately followed Moon to the room leaving his parents.
Mama and Papa Langit looked at each other with confused and wondering gazes.
"Children today, dating someone who isn't, it's hard to tell, Ma?!" Said Papa Langit while whispering to his wife.
The sky opened the door to the Moon.
The moon sat on the lips of her bed, and cried as she pleased.
"This is the first time, Eyang slapped me." He said as he saw the sky enter the room.
The sky approached the Moon and sat down beside it. Then touch the right cheek of his friend who was slapped earlier.
"It hurts, huh?" Ask Sky.
"It hurts here." Sahut Moon while holding his chest while a biting.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Moon." The Sky Hand swept both cheeks of the Moon wet with tears.
The Moon's cry was louder and sobbing after Heaven apologized. The sky immediately embraced the Moon's body.
The Moon's cry still sounded in the arms of Heaven.
In the middle room, the Sky old man was just speechless watching them.
*****
The moon sits bends its knees on the bed. Let her hair down and scramble. He still remembers what happened this morning.
He got out of his bed, and went out of the room, opened the fridge, and grabbed a can of Nescafe.
His eyes turned to a plate containing pieces of black forest. Sky's 25th birthday cake, made by Mama.
Since her first child was one year old, Mama Langit has a habit of making her own cakes for her children when they are birthday.
The moon pulled the dining chair and stuck on it. He thought of Mario. He felt ashamed of himself. Now things turn around to him.
The moon breathed out hard. From the side of his white heart, he decided to remain honest in admitting his mistake. However, he also has a heart side of ash and black, which says that, if he is honest about it, his relationship with Mario is threatened to disperse. So why look for trouble?
Then Eyang...
He refused to meet her. When you meet at the office, you only talk about work. What makes the Moon so tormented is how Eyang tries to avoid eye contact between them.
It was as if I could not see the moon. Even for work issues. The moon is very sad. Guilt always strikes him.
"Can I sleep with that kid?" The moon asked herself while propping up her chin. I didn't think about that night.
"And why should you get caught too?!" It's in the heart.
His right cheek remembered one of Eyang's rewards for what he had done. But it didn't seem like it was enough for Eyang.
The moon looked around the room in his house. Feels lonely. No more housemates. The atmosphere is back to how it used to be. There was a void of emptiness and loneliness in his heart. However, the Moon assured her, tomorrow the feeling will go away by itself.
