Attracted By The Moon
Chapter 7: Looks the same

After Bima and Arkana left, the Moon immediately exhaled a breath that was restrained by the loudness of the pulse. He was really not confident, two famous directors approached him, and said he wanted to invite him to work together. It's not just a dream, is it?

"But why should I..? There are still many writers out there whose stories are more weighty. And among the many directors, why should Bima? Why do I have to meet that bastard again...!! ahg! He didn't even say anything, at least not that he should apologize, feel guilty, or what cake. You rotten man..!" curl it while tightly clenching the sugar sachet in the container.

"No..! Not that I haven't moved-on. I even desperately wanted to scratch his face because he gave me the funeral flowers back then." His anger grumbled, he was like answering a question from within his own mind.

kling.kling's chat..

The little bell on the doorstep of the Cafe rang again, this time it was her Mother Moon who came. She brought a parcel of food and a gift from her husband.

"Hi Moon.."

Saras hugged his daughter from behind.

The surprised moon immediately smiled with excitement. He misses his mother very much, but somehow the reluctance to go home is still stuck in his heart.

"You've eaten? I bought you some seashell soup from your favorite restaurant."

"really..? oh, what a coincidence I haven't eaten."

"Sister Vidia... Let's eat together." he called out, before long Vidia immediately ran over to them.

"well, it looks like your mother just won the trial" said Vidia inhaling in the savory aroma of the mussel soup.

"haha.. You have to win the trial first to buy my son a good meal?" sahut Saras laughed gracefully.

From appearance, manner of speech, fashion style and taste, Saras is very different from the Moon. I don't know why the blood of elegance doesn't drop on the Moon. The girl was like closing herself off from everything that could beautify herself.

"Oh yeah, who's the guy who just came out with Jas? Mother was so familiar with her face."

"Of course, he's a famous director ma'am. I certainly don't understand, but I must have seen it on television." replied the Moon in an indistinct voice, because he was engrossed in eating the delicious shells.

"really? What's he here for?" saras continued while peeling some shells for the Moon.

"Mom, soon your son will become a famous writer." Vidia turned her eyes towards Saras.

Saras immediately closed his mouth, as a lawyer, he could immediately know what the director's purpose was to get there.

"The moon..? They met you?"

The moon nodded, he was ready to open his ears to be praised by his mother.

And sure enough, Saras immediately hugged his daughter was very excited.

"Oh my son. You're great, son, you're finally starting to develop thanks to your tenacity. Do you remember anyone who insulted you for being a writer? If you remember to give me his name, I'll plug their mouths with this fact."

"haha.. Mother, don't act like a criminal. Shouldn't a famous person have some haters?" The Moon's eyebrows go up and down, as if it boasts of all the blasphemy it has ever gotten.

"You're right. ahh, finally the mother's son is successful with his work. Congratulations to your mother's moon.."

"hehehe. thanks mom, this is all thanks to mom's support." Reply while hugging tightly the mother.

After almost an hour of chatting, Saras also said goodbye to go home. Not to forget she gave a parcel from her husband for the Moon.

The moon received the parcel with a sour face. "Say my thanks to him."

"alright.. I'm going home first." Saras also moved with a gloomy face. Hearing the Moon never mention his father like a child, made inner Saras a little hurt.

The wounds that the Moon experienced when he was a teenager, perhaps the wounds that until recently became a fortress between the Moon and his Father. But Saras himself did not know for sure, why the Moon until now is still reluctant to go home. He only knew, the attitude of the Moon became so because his father was too hard on him.

The moon opened the parcel, a small box with beautiful carvings.

"ch, what's he giving me this for. I'll show you, if I can stand without someone like you."

The moon took a picture of the box, then posted it on social media. He always did, selling stuff his father gave him using a backup account.

Wouldn't let him keep his father's gift. Meningan at melt, enough to make savings to buy food stocks Moli, his cat.

...~~~~~...

The next day, the Moon has arrived in front of the Bumantara films building. He went straight into the 7th floor as suggested by Bima yesterday.

Unlike yesterday, this time the appearance of the Moon turned into a normal human being. That was also because Vidia nagged him all out. Yes, I want to meet important people like a bum.

Vidia lends her a pastel-blue blouse and light-brown highwaist pants, making the Moon's short legs look even taller. Don't forget the sheer makeup wrapped around his face. He is truly worthy of being called a human being today. Not like a shabby yesterday like people don't shower a week.

When entering the building, Moon was a bit confused, because this was his first visit to a large company building. Though he had often come to his mother's office, but it turns out this building is bigger than the law firm where the mother works.

Upon entering the elevator, the Moon was with the staff and several other workers. He looked one by one the faces of the officers there, until when he looked sideways, he found Arkana who was engrossed in looking at his cell phone.

"Sir Arkana.." Sapa Moon slowly, afraid to disturb the comfort of others.

Arkana turned her head, and she was surprised to see the Moon next to her. "oh. hi..? Want to see the Producer?"

The moon nodded "Yes, as you suggested yesterday."

"mmm..." Arkana also nodded, seeing that she was nervous to see the girl. The girl who used to fill his heart, and he just left it.

There are so many things he wants to ask, is the news okay? How was his life, and with what did he treat the wounds that were scratched from being dumped?

"You want to ask me something?" the Moon breaks Arkana's daydream, feeling uneasy as Arkana continues to stare at her face.

"How are you..?" the words were simply spoken from Arkana's lips.

The moon scrunched her forehead, for what the man asked her news, when clearly they had just met yesterday. And today, they stand face to face with their feet straight, their bodies healthy.

"ba.baik.." said the Moon stamped, he took a side step to keep his distance from Arkana. The feeling was bad because the man threw a very deep gaze.

Then the elevator doors opened, the people in front of them came out except for the Moon and Arkana, because this was still on the 5th floor. They will be heading to the 7th floor.

When the elevator door was about to close, Bima suddenly came and held the door. He entered with a sharp breath, he was waited 25 minutes ago by Mr. Tara. He could be out of his future if he is late even longer.

"hi's.. " Bima sculpted when looking at the appearance of the Moon. Yesterday he didn't realize, probably because the Moon was quite a mess. But today, the Moon is wearing makeup, dressed femininely and grabs her hair gracefully. She looked the same as Bintang, the woman from the subconscious that she almost married.
