Behind the Loss of the Moon
Part 17 (Inadvertent meeting)

Today the sun looks so cheerful, but a collection of clouds are also present to protect the heat is not too stinging when touching the skin.

Birds also flock out of their nests, to fetch sustenance from the creator. Some also sing with a distinctive style that spoils the ear.

Unfortunately, that cheerfulness can not be felt by Safa, my most cheerful friend, looks somber since first coming to school. Even the plan to stay last night was canceled for no apparent reason.

"Safa? The safa? Safa!" I said, a little screaming.

"Huh?heh, ekh, why Zur?" Safa, stammer.

"Why is that elo? from earlier I noticed elo, diem aja," I said.

"Gue, it's okay. I, just think of the same task that is given, Mrs Lovely," Alibi, Safa.

"Seriously, elo gapapa?" ask me one more time.

Safa, nodding confidently accompanied by a big smile, but unfortunately I do not believe in Safa's fake smile, I am sure behind the smile there is something Safa is hiding.

"At the gathering here, it turns out!" Edo, approach us at the school park. "So, leave now us?" tanyakanya.

"In the meantime, we're still waiting for Yasmin" replied Safa.

Edo, just nod.

We agreed that after returning from school we will do group work from buk Indah, today.

"Hi! wait a long time, huh?" yasmin said, approaching us.

"No, relax" I said.

"Who do you want to do at home, who are we?" ask, Yasmin.

"How about in the cafe, which we were working with Windy at the time, the Son?" motion, Edo.

"By the way, it's also a good place for photos" Safa, agreed.

Me, and Yasmin, who was on the listening team, also nodded at the proposal Edo gave.

***

"The feeling of our time here three weeks ago, the decoration of the cafe is not rich enough," said Safa, observing around the cafe from outside.

I'm nodding. "Surely they deliberately change the concept every month, make a change of atmosphere," I said.

"It's good, so it's not bosenin" added Edo.

"Udah yuk, come in! me, it's the laper," take you, Yasmin.

"It wasn't the weekend, but the cafe was a real race" said Edo.

"No wonder, rame. I've been staying here for a long time" said Safa.

"Where is this waitress, anyway?" Yasmin, look around.

"Sir, here!"

I was wailing to see where waitress called Edo was. There, precisely from the left of the position I was sitting in, I saw the figure approaching us, he smiled as if he did not have any burden.

He walked slowly, occasionally nodding as someone greeted him.

He, the figure who had disappeared a few years back without giving any news even for a moment, the figure I had recently been looking for his existence, the figure who had filled my longing piggy bank. Him, Brother Moon.

"K-sister Moon?" say, lirih.

Just like me, Brother Moon was surprised to see me in front of him. In fact, Safa was agape because she got a surprise from the figure we were looking for.

"Sister of the Moon, work here?" again, askaku. After a while only silence dominated us.

"You want what pesen? this is the menu list." Brother Moon, hand us a thin black-coated book.

Although both surprised, but Kak Bulan, managed to more quickly master the look of his face. He, smile back.

"Sister, why don't you ever want to go home?" I again asked, but it was only considered the wind then by, Brother Moon.

"Sister, please tell me what's going on? I know there must be Mama, Papa, and Kak Bulan, hiding from me, right?" my voice provoked a little attention from some visitors. "Jawab, Brother! don't keep dodging!" my continue.

"Zurais? Zuras! oye! zura's breath!" Safa, shake my shoulder.

I blinked, breathing as much as possible. Worth it, from earlier this room felt increasingly stuffy, it turns out I was too surprised to forget to breathe.

"Are you okay?" ask, Safa.

I smiled, then nodded slowly.

"Overall the task, we delay it. Now, elo calm yourself elo, aja." Yasmin, gently rub my back.

I'm shaking. "Gue, all right, we're doing the job now" I said.

My friends nodded without arguing anymore.

"So what do you want to know from, Brother?" tanya, Brother Moon when we talked together in the park behind the cafe.

I was silent for a moment. Looking at the minimalist garden arrangement becomes more modern. If Safa comes with me, she will feel at home, and fill her phone memory with selfies.

"Why, you never come home?" my many.

Finally after a long time of questions that only I can say in my heart, I can say to the main character of this problem.

"Sister, final semester student, busy. And, as you can see, Brother works too. So, I don't have time to go home" said Brother Moon.

"A few days ago I squirmed Brother, at the pharmacy. Sis buy a testpack, is Brother, pregnant?" my question, doubt.

"No. it's for your brother's friend" replied, Kak Bulan sure.

I can breathe a little. To be honest, from a few days ago negative thoughts about Kak Bulan continued to appear in my mind.

"Sister, I know." Brother Moon, focus his eyes on me, after just looking ahead.

"I know, brother, I know there's something you're hiding from me. What is it, Brother? what important thing are you trying to shut me down?" I began to shed tears.

Brother Moon, be quiet for a while then laugh."Don't worry, we don't hide anything" said Kak Bulan.

"Sister, pliss .. be honest with me, now I'm not a child anymore, please tell me exactly what happened," I said.

"More nervous, you. Brother'kan has said no one Brother, Mama, and Papa hide from you," said Kak Bulan. "Now you go home, surely your friends are waiting" he continued.

For a while I was silent, wanting to refuse, but I had no good reason to keep chatting with Kak Bulan, especially now Kak Bulan, constantly trying to cover up the facts.

"Okay, I want to go home, but I want to know where Brother lives?" Brother Moon, be silent.

"At the princess' house near here," replied, Brother Moon.

Okay, enough. Although I do not know the actual facts, but at least I know where he lives, it will be easier for me to meet Kak Bulan, again.

"I'm home, assalamu'alaikum." I kissed salute, Brother Moon.

"Wa'alaikumussalam,"

The moon, looking at his sister's back that was starting to drift away. Pity continues to annoy him, but stronger ego and promise hold him back.

"Now you've got a big deck." Not feeling, her tears began to fall.

"You're right deck, there's something we've sealed off from you, and it's the key." The moon, erasing the trace of her tears. He had to go back inside the cafe and smile, at his friends. Act like everything is okay.
