By evening, Aksara and Arysilla chose to eat their dinner first. Filling up her empty stomach, before Arysilla actually charged that she would ask Aksara to tell her second childhood. Even though the truth is, Arysilla is not sure will remember all the stories. Merely, he did indeed want to listen to the story straight from the mouth of Aksara himself.
Once finished eating and cleaning the cutlery, Arysilla chose to sit on the carpet in front of the living room. The woman sat with her legs crossed, and her shoulders leaned against the sofa. A good position to sit around, while listening to the Aksara telling a story.
"Here, let's tell you a story before night and I'll be sleepy" said Arysilla who seemed to want Aksara to immediately join her and start telling stories.
The man put on his smile, while sitting next to Arysilla. "Why sit down?" tanyakanya.
"Yes, I just want to sit down. Good position while horrifying you the story," he replied by throwing his smile at Aksara. "So, when will the story begin?" ask Arysilla now.
"Can't you wait to hear my story?" ask Aksara to the woman who was waiting for the story.
Arysilla nodded, "Yes," she replied briefly.
Then Aksara smiled, the man began to incline slightly to position himself as comfortable as possible, and then he told a story.
"I was separated from my Father and Mother. Until I was in Mother's Orphanage. One day there was a young couple who at the time shared a love to celebrate the birth of their daughter, and the couple was ..." The story of the Scriptures hangs just like that, and the story of the, because Arysilla had first denied it.
"Papa Radit and Mama Khaira" he said quickly.
Aksara then nodded, "Yes, that's right .. At that time Papa and Mama came with various foodstuffs, milk, diapers, clothes, and also books for children in the orphanage. Ms. Lisa, who was the leader of the Orphanage, welcomed the arrival of Papa and Mama. At the love sharing event, Mama Khaira read out a favorite fairy tale called 'Bad Little Things Looked Up', at that time I felt like a little Duck that had no family. No one accepted me, to the point of making me end up in the Orphanage. However, Mama Khaira who at that time I asked permission to call her Mother actually felt her heart moved, until she sent me to school. Mom and Dad thought of me as their own son. From that moment on, I felt the whole family. Even though I still live at the Orphanage, but Mom and Dad always visit me almost every month."
This time, Aksara really told everything in a vivid manner. Hope the tangled thread unravels and Arysilla can get a picture of her life story.
While Arysilla herself listened to the story of the Aksara as best she could. "Then, how?" arysilla's next response.
"Since then, my relationship with your family has been close. Until the years changed, I used to play with you at the Orphanage at the beginning of the month. I was like a child waiting for the beginning of the month, because on that day I would be happy because my family would see me. Also, there are you that I can play and read books. I even gave you that fairy tale book stored in your room. Princess Aurora's fairy tale book is from me" he said this time.
It felt like Arysilla was so blinked, not expecting herself to have such a memory. Unfortunately, he did not remember it. He was too small at the time. His memory is not faithful. Just like a study that reveals that children's memory is partial (temporary). He was only 3 years old at the time, so he did not remember all the events. In fact, research shows that children's memory begins to be faithful when children reach the age of 7 years.
"O .. so, so," Arysilla responded.
"Yes, that's where it all began" replied Aksara.
After which, Aksara took her wallet in her pants pocket. He took out the photo he had kept in his wallet for a dozen years.
"This look ..he is Radit's father, Khaira's mother, and this baby is you" he said.
"Yes, it's me" replied Aksara.
It felt so relieved when he could open his old story to Arysilla now. The story that he had kept for so long, he could finally tell the story in detail to Arysilla.
"So, you've loved me since I was a kid?" ask Arysilla now.
"Since you were a child, I have loved you like my sister. It's just that after Father and Mother found me, I came out of the Orphanage in sadness. The one thing I was most afraid of at the time was that I was afraid of making you cry. For I go without saying goodbye to you" Aksara told me with a reddened face. The man seemed to be holding his wounds in fear as he walked out of the Orphanage without saying goodbye to Arysilla.
"In my difficult days, I would often ask Father Bhishma and Mother Naya to take me to the Orphanage. Even I purposely came at the beginning of the month in the hope that I could meet you. It was in vain, we never saw each other again" he recalled.
"Until, I have the desire to be a successful man, a man who can protect you. Until one day came, I found you. You know, how nervous and happy I was the first time I saw you. Yeah, at the party that night. There's Ravendra calling your name 'Arysilla Kirana Princess Raditya', how could I forget that name. The name I always say day and night. The name I always wanted to find where her figure was, until I could meet you that night" Aksara recalled again.
"I don't think you remember any of that" Arysilla said after hearing all the stories from Aksara.
The woman looked at Aksara's face, it felt like Arysilla was sure that the man was telling the truth this time. There is no engineering. Unfortunately, Arysilla did not remember it.
"Sorry, unfortunately I don't remember it, anyway" said Arysilla again who felt bad about Aksara.
The man shook his head, "No problem. For me, there is no need for me to try to remember me in the past, just remember me in the present, until the future" Aksara said gently.
"Is it really not a problem?" ask Arysilla this time.
"Yes, no problem. Just open your heart, accept me as your whole and complete husband. Trust me as your man who will always protect and shower you with love" he said earnestly.
It felt like Arysilla's chest rippled again to hear the words of the Scriptures. The woman then smiled. "Okay, then first, what did I call you?" ask Arysilla now.
"Kak Aksara .. That's how you call me," he replied.
Arysilla then moved her hand, grabbed Aksara's hand and held it tightly, "Thank you for the story Kak Aksara," said Arysilla this time.
Well, it feels like Aksara's heart is beating so fast when Arysilla calls him 'Kak Aksara'. The feeling in his heart was truly explosive, full of happiness.
Then, Aksara smiled looking at Arysilla's face. The man slightly inched and landed a momentary kiss on Arysilla's lips. "I Love U, Syilla .. In the past, present, and future, I always love you."
