"Your trauma relapsed again na?" Milea pulled up the chair beside Nala's bed that was lying weakly with an infusion and oxygen hose.
"That's how le. Sometimes I feel like giving up this trauma. Every light goes off, I'm always like this, until papa makes a special room for me that has a not-so-bright illumination that can last even if the power goes out." Lirih Nala's.
"You can't do that Na. You are strong! I'm sure you'll get through it, and I'm sure you'll be able to recover from your trauma." Milea said encouragingly.
"Thank you, le.."
"It's the same."
Cclek
"Nlade!" Shouts from the door caught the attention of the two. A middle-aged woman ran frantically towards Nala's bed.
"Mama?"
"What are you doing, baby? Is anyone sick? Whereabouts? Tell mommy to call her doctor later" Kirana told her daughter.
"Ma... It's okay, mom doesn't have to worry about it." Lirih Nala clasped Kirana's hand tightly, trying to convince the woman of two children that she was fine.
"What's really wrong?"
"Yes ma.. It's okay." Kirana sighed softly as her son said that he was fine. His gaze now turned to look at the straight-haired girl who was sitting next to his daughter.
"It's..."
"Hi aunt. This is Milea Aunt, Nala's friend at the same time sma. Auntie don't forget?" Understanding Kirana's confusion, Milea introduced herself first.
"Milea? That geeky Milea?"
"Yes!" Nala looked at her mother who was so shocked she could not filter the words. "Eh? Sorry sorry, aunt did not mean to ridicule you first, "sorry Kirana because her mouth can not be brake.
"What aunty, Milea was a geeky person. So it's only natural to be surprised to see Milea now." Understand Milea.
"Yes loh. Aunt ampe pangling look at you now. How are you, Milea? How many years have we not met? If it's not wrong at graduation at that time," Kirana said tapping her chin trying to remember the last time she met her daughter's best friend.
"Hehe can aunty. Yes aunt, Milea went to college in Australi, so it's only natural that she never met."
Nala looked at Milea. "How come you never said you went to college in Australia?" Resenting.
Milea returned a look. "Hehe's sorry, I'm not perfect for a story. Actually in addition to running to Jogja, I also want to ask permission to Grandma to accept the scholarship offer in Australi," replied Milea scratching her nape that is not itchy.
"Huh, excuse!"
The mane of the princess. "With this mom can calm you to learn independently. Whatever your decision Mama will always support, the important thing is that you can find your own happiness." Further.
Nala looked at her mother. "Emm thank you very much ma, because you already want to understand Nala. My mom is the best!!" The spoiled Nala hug.
"Same as darling..."
Milea looked at the two smiling faintly. He decided to go out to give Mother and child time to let go of the longing. He wanted to find the wind outside.
Creetical
Milea threw herself down on a hospital park bench, looking up at the sky with stars. His sight was sad as memories with his mother crossed his mind.
A little boy was pensive in the window of his room staring at the sky decorated with beautiful stars scattered. "Darling.. Are you here? Not afraid of the wind?" Shortly after, a beautiful young woman greeted the girl and sat down next to her.
"Mom, why does the star keep shining even though it knows that it is surrounded by darkness?" Little Milea asked pointing at the stars in the sky.
The woman named Rikha smiled as she stroked her son's hair. "The stars shine because they want us to see. That even though we are surrounded by darkness, we as humans must remain energetic, because the person who shines the light must not always be surrounded by light. Because the lights will shine when the dark say hello."
"Learning is. We are taught to always be grateful and continue to be enthusiastic even though it is being surrounded by those who do not expect us. Because what? Because every human being deserves to be happy."
Tests
Unconsciously, tears flowed as those memories flashed through the mind. Milea looked at the star with a feeling of utterability.
"Happy? Whether Milea can still be happy, while Milea's happiness has gone both." It's getting sobbing.
Pock
"Hey what are you?" Tanya Zaky suddenly came patting her shoulder. The startled Milea quickly wiped away her tears.
"You crying?"
"No. Who is crying? People put dust in too." Her eagle avoided eye contact with Zaky so as not to see her puffy eyes.
Zaky looked at both of Milea's eyes sharply. Her hand cupped Milea's face to return the gaze. "Don't lie! I know you're crying. Tell me, what makes you cry?"
Milea stared at Zaky's bead eyes that looked shady and soothing. Unasked, she hugged Zaky. Shedding her bated cry earlier. No matter how Zaky would mock him or what, all he needed right now was a backrest.
Zaky was silent to let Milea shed her tears, hesitatingly hesitating she returned the hug while stroking Milea's hair.
