Behind the Eyes of INDIGO

Behind the Eyes of INDIGO
Two lives


The opening of the art scene has already begun. All the participants had already gathered in the main square and in front of the stage. They were all so excited to attend the event that was soon started.


While at the entrance of Buper, the Princess continued to babble because she could not watch the opening of the art stage on the main field. The princess continued to talk to Alia, but Alia just kept quiet while thinking about what she had actually seen.


As soon as the opening event started, the surroundings became very quiet as almost everyone gathered in the main square. Likewise the situation at the entrance, almost no one went in and out again.


******


The princess suddenly pulled Alia's hand and invited her to go to the main square.


"Aren't we on guard duty here?" asked Alia who was confused because the Princess suddenly pulled her hand.


"You forgot! it's 9 o'clock! now our duty is to guard the main square near the committee stage! ah you mostly dream of the!"


The princess continued to grumble as she continued to pull Alia's hand and walked towards the main square. While Alia was just speechless and following the Princess, she felt like a confused person from still being unfocused.


Once on the main court, the Princess became even more excited as their juniors began to take to the stage to show their art performances. Unknowingly the Princess had already joined the other juniors who were in front of the stage to cheer up.


Meanwhile, Alia chose to retreat and find a place that was not too crowded on the edge of the back field.


His mind was still filled with the shadow of the hand he had seen from the damaged building.


Shortly after, Alia decided to go to the toilet and wash her face to make it fresher.


Alia arrived in front of the toilet next to the mosque, the atmosphere there was now very quiet because there was no one.


Alia stopped her steps and stood in front of the toilet door, her mind again becoming empty and confused. He heard the voice of the woman again.


Finally he decided to walk closer to the former toilet building.


The distance of the building with the toilet that is still used is actually not too far, approximately only 10m. But because of the shape of the land below it makes it look far away. Moreover, the path to the building is filled with grass that is quite high.


The former toilet building was no roof and had no doors, only a patch of wall that still stands filled with moss plants around it.


The situation there is very dark, because the lighting is only in the front of the toilet which is next to the mosque only.


"Srak. srakk"


There was a soft sound of Alia's footsteps crashing into the weeds tree in front of her. His eyes were only fixed on the building so he did not realize that his feet were walking to a place that had not been touched by others for a long time.


The closer to the building, the sound of crying became more and more clear in Alia's ears. Her eyes were focused on seeing who was inside and why she was crying.


Soon a woman who was sitting limply leaning against the moss-filled wall, Alia's tears began to drip when she saw clearly the woman's condition.


The woman sat with her legs straight and saw a knife stuck in her stomach filled with blood.


What made Alia shed tears was when she found out that the knife stuck in the woman's stomach had also killed a life that was even very small.


One knife that took two lives, that's what made Alia so compassionate that she shed her tears.


"Astaghfirullah's..."


Alia continued to stand there for a moment, she felt very surprised by what she saw now. He also did not know what to do, his mind changed like a dazed person.


But finally Alia decided to continue her steps closer to the building.


But suddenly someone came and immediately pulled Alia's hand and took her away from the place.


"You're crazy huh!? why are you alone there? no other work!?"


That person continued to nag while still holding Alia's hand tightly.


"Can I take my hand?"


"Oh sorry, I had a reflex"


Amar let go of Alia's hand, his attitude turned very nervous and looked embarrassed.


"Why you?" ask Alia astonished.


"You are why! why are you alone in that place!?"


"Oh, I'm just curious"


"Curious? Alia you haven't changed! you'd forgotten? the last time your curiosity was already making a splashy foundation, for you can not enter school for almost a month and also you almost crazy?"


Alia just silently listened to the long ramblings of Amar. He even felt surprised to Amar, because for three years they were one class, only this time Alia saw Amar showing her emotions to others.


All he saw was the attitude of Amar who was always wise in leading, he never even talked to anyone about personal matters and never showed a facial expression that would indicate the feeling he was feeling.


"Why are you just quiet?" Amar began to feel that he was completely ignored by Alia and started to get a little upset.


"Why are you? or do you not get into a trance because you came to that place?"


"Alia I'm serious!"


Amar's facial expression turned very serious finger, he stared inside Alia to make her become afraid because Alia had never seen Amar's attitude like that before.


Alia just fell silent as if she wanted to get more explanation from Amar about her attitude.


"I'm worried about you!" amar said slowly.


Alia was still silent at Amar's words. He walked towards the sidelines and sat down to calm his mind from the strange thing he had experienced.


"You know why I went to that place?"


"Alia! I know you can see them, but you don't have to risk yourself!"


"He was such a pity, his fate was truly tragic"


Alia spoke with a blank look of eyes, her mind re-remembered as she looked at the woman lying on a broken building that was already filled with moss.


"I know you can see them, but even so you can't change their fate"


The deg! Alia suddenly remembered the fate of Mayra, Amar's words just now really made Alia realize that she really could not do anything to change destiny.


"Sorry Alia, I didn't mean to offend you"


"Well, I also know that I can't do anything, and that's the only thing that makes me feel that this advantage is a big disadvantage"


"But at least you can pray for them to be calm" Amar said with a smile towards Alia.


"You're weird today!"


Alia was still curious about Amar's attitude which was different from usual. He kept asking what was the reason behind it until Amar finally spoke.


"I like you!"


Amar said quickly because he was embarrassed and also afraid that his words would make Alia's attitude change to him.
