Behind the Loss of the Moon
Part 13 [Look Again]

"Zura!" saha, Safa whispered.

I was treated as an answer. Still focusing my eyes on the board.

"Zura?" again, Safa called me.

I cleared my throat again, ready to hear whatever Safa would say.

"Zura, look at me first!" Safa, I'm getting upset because I'm still focused on taking lessons.

I sighed softly, then turned my gaze on, Safa. "What?" my many.

"I love you," Safa said, with her plain grin.

I was speechless, at a loss for words at the absurd manner of this man sitting beside me.

"GaJe, lo," I said, continuing to write.

Safa, have a little laugh. "Go back to school, go to the movies! the next grade says there's a new horror movie" Safa said.

I turned to confirm the seriousness in the face, Safa. Maybe this kid took me to watch horror, but he was a coward. "Elo, is it not wrong to make sure I watch a horror movie?" i'm making sure.

Safa, nod enthusiastically. "I'm not wrong, I'm one hundred percent sure" said Safa confidently.

"But, elo'kan cowardly," I reminded. Afraid of Safa, experiencing amesia.

"Yes, but I don't want to miss the topic for gossip, now't the kids again on the scene talking about the film. So, how about not?" tanyakanya.

I thought for a moment, then nodded slowly. "If today can not, Mama from semalem fever, so later I have to nemenin Mama," said I.

Safa, put on her face. "Well ... How do dong go?" ask, Safa.

"Elo, go with the others" I suggested.

Safa, shake. "No. Elo'kan know I'm scared, if watching a horror movie must be screaming, the other children can not necessarily bear my screams," said Safa lethargic.

"Yaudah, what if the day after tomorrow? hopefully a fever, Mama I can mop down," I suggested.

"Judah, but you paid for the movie tickets, huh?" Safa, cheerful as always.

I was again at a loss for words seeing the magical behavior of Safa, but I couldn't help but ask Safa's request, of course it made her many times more excited than before.

Shortly after the teacher came back after saying goodbye to the toilet, Safa and I stopped our short conversation.

"Here, you really don't want to mess with me?" Safa, again asked after the previous invitation I refused.

"No Safa Cahyani, besides I've been pesen ojol, I also want to stop by the pharmacy first, buy medicine for Mama," I said.

"Catalin aja deh, elo nebeng the same me, later I all want to look at Aunt Mayang," proposed, Safa who is still faithfully sitting on his motorcycle.

"No. Kasian ojolnya if I abort, elo look tomorrow aja deh, nyokap elo also call sent home cepet'kan earlier?" my spoken.

With a little forced finally Safa, I also want to tell you to go home first. Before leaving, I could still see his worried face, maybe Safa, the Kasian saw me having to wait for a bulge, while the sky was starting to moody.

"Zura, will you stay with me?" arin's motorbike, stopped right in front of me.

"No Rin, thank you. I've mesen ojol," I said.

Arin, nodding then saying goodbye to go home first.

"Wait a minute, sir, I want to buy medicine first," I said, on a standby after arriving at the pharmacy.

The Ojol, too, nodded with a smile.

Right after I handed him the helmet, the figure was seen again, he came out from inside the pharmacy wearing a pink sweater, I saw he was also carrying a small scraped bag in his right hand. He, get ready to go with an ojol.

I hurriedly wanted to get to him, but the road was a lot of passing vehicles, making it difficult to cross. Should have asked you, this ojol to park in the pharmacy, not wait on the street like this.

Once again, I lost track of Brother Moon.

"Sister, I want to buy paracetamol, the same vitamin C, vitamin B1," I told the pharmacy guard.

"This is the cure Deck, a total of fifty thousand," said the veiled woman in front of me.

I handed him a red note. "Sorry Brother, I want to ask, the woman who used the pink sweeter had bought what medicine?" my many.

I'm sure the apothecary's guard remembers the person I asked, only one person wearing the pink shirt from earlier.

"The one wearing the pink shirt was his brother, I said," I said, reassuring the pharmacy guard who looked doubtful.

"The mother who had bought a testpack," said the pharmacy guard.

I grinned, feeling strange for the first time I heard the name of such a medicine. "What kind of medicine does that hurt?" my many.

"That's not the Deck drug, the testpack is a pregnancy test kit," replied the pharmacy keeper.

I stared, as if immersed in an empty dimension without light. Perhaps, if the apothecary's guard hadn't reprimanded me for giving change I would have been silent until tomorrow. When, on the way home, I was still silent to digest the words of the apothecary guard earlier.

*Snack of Month, buy testpack for what?

Brother Moon, pregnant?

Brother Moon, who is pregnant? but, Brother Moon'kan is not married yet.

Is this the reason, why Brother Moon, do not want to go home all this time*?

Questions like that kept swirling around in my head, like up-and-coming music playing everywhere.

"Gem? The gem? The jars?" Mama, touch my shoulder.

"Huh? to–why, Ma?" answer, stammering.

"Why is that you? from earlier Mama, ask what lunch you want, you even daydream," said, Mama.

I went back into silence, confused between having to tell what I saw or not. Just like me, surely Mama, would be surprised if you know Kak Bulan, buy a testpack at the pharmacy.

"Tuh'kan, daydream again," said Mama, awakened me.

"What's up, anyway? you got a problem? try the same story, Mama!" pinta, Mommy.

I shook my head, then smiled and hugged, Mama. "Gemi, gapapa Ma," I said.

"Why do you dream?" ask, Mama.

I choose silence.

"You if you have a problem, or someone is struggling in the heart, you tell me the same Mama, do not ever feel Mama, will be burdened huh?" said, Mama while stroking my hair.

I smiled and nodded. Gemi, all right, Ma. Mama, don't worry." I assure you, Mama. "Now, Mama just rest, let me get well. Problem, lunch let Gemi, make it yourself, all make it for Gio," I continued.

"Thank you, Gem, you helped Mama" said Mama.

I nodded, then confirmed the sleeping position, Mama. I went back to my room after leaving a kiss on my forehead, Mama.

In the room, I was still sculpting, trying to eliminate the negative thoughts that began to pop into my head.

Is it possible that the reason Kak Bulan, went because of this problem? but, if true, why go for years? what's really in hiding, Brother Moon?
