Between Love and Corona
Being Honest with Parents

"Why have you always been so kind to me, Bin .. when I've often been so unkind to you" said Moon, who asked why the Stars had always been so kind to her.

The stars just smiled and looked at the moon. "Without me answering, you must have known the answer."

The answer is definitely and absolutely by its very nature, because the Star loves the Moon sincerely. For years, she loved alone, without ever expecting her to return her love. The way she loves the Moon is by always being nice to her and also helping the Moon whenever the girl feels the need.

After all, there are many love languages in the world, some in the form of smiles, hugs, kisses, even cries. They became a human way of expressing his love, and this time the Star expressed love doing his sincerity and kindness.

"I drive home now yes ... later until home, want me to meet to talk to Father and Mother? Seeing your face and lips must be Father and Mother suspicious." said Bintang realistically.

The crying that made the face of the Moon become swollen and also the wound on the corner of his lips was proof that the girl was not okay.

Moon thought about the offer of the Star, honestly he felt afraid if he had to convey everything to his Father and Mother. After all, today's incident was sudden and he had never predicted it before.

"Do I have to be honest with Father and Mother, Bin?" asked Moon this time, apparently he asked for a response from the Stars.

The man seemed to nod his head. "Yes .. better be honest. Don't cover. All parents would be happier if their children were honest. Isn't that? So, my advice is better to be honest. Don't be afraid, he's your own parent. If anything happens to you, he'll be worried."

What the Bintang said is true, as parents, it is certain that Mr. Hartono and Mr. Sundari will feel worried if something happens to the Moon.

"Don't be afraid of the Moon, he's both your own parents" said the Star, who tried to convince the Moon.

"Well .. I'll try to talk to you and Mom at home later. Now, please take me home Bin." he asked the Stars for help.

The man nodded his head while smiling. "certainly so. Without you asking for help, I will drive you home" he replied as he began driving his car towards the Moon residence.

In the afternoon before evening, the streets in Jogjakarta city are quite crowded smoothly. So it takes almost 20 minutes from the Malioboro area to the Moon house. As soon as he got in front of the gate of the house, the man seemed to stop the Moon for a moment.

"Do you want me to go to China?" it is still worrying about the moon.

The girl shook her head and looked at the stars. "I can .. I will talk directly to you and Mom" he said, ensuring that he would speak directly to you and Mom.

"Okay .. okay. Yes carefully. If you need anything, don't forget to call me" he said, smiling at the Moon.

Once entering the house, the Moon then approached the Father and Mother who were sitting in the family room.

"Father and Mother, there is something the Moon wants to convey to Father and Mother" said the girl began her conversation.

Honestly, this will be the first time for the Moon to talk about the problem with Surya. His heart hesitated, but he recalled the words of the Star, if anything happened to him it was the Father and Mother who first worried.

Seeing the presence of the Moon and his face still wearing a mask looked serious, Mr. Hartono and Mr. Sundari nodded his head.

"What do you want to say to Nduk? Just talk ... the same Father and Mother do not need to hesitate." said Mr. Hartono who has certainly allowed the Moon to speak.

"Astaghfirullah .. what happened?" asked Bu Sundari who was immediately surprised to see the face of the Moon.

According to his observations while away with the Stars, his son was still fine and now his face was covered with surely Moon crying, and the corner of his lips were injured. As parents, both of them think nothing.

"Does the Star do it?" tanya Bu Sundari with a soft look.

Even in her heart, Ms. Sundari was sure that the Star would not be possible to do that, but the man who picked up the Moon to the house was the Star, the Star, as a mother, I would ask the man who was with his daughter first.

The moon shook her head. "Not ... not the Star, Ma'am" he replied, which gave the certainty that it was not the Star.

"Whose way, Ndug?" ask Mrs Sundari.

The moon began to shed tears, she lowered her head. "So when the Moon and the Stars were traveling in Malioboro, suddenly the Moon saw Surya. Then forcefully he brought the Moon to speak at the Vastenburg Fortress, we had a fight there. Then, Surya kissed the Moon forcibly, Mom. The wound on the corner of this lip is because of Surya."

Everything Moon had told his parents, with tears in his eyes, the girl had to roll back the memory in his brain related to the very event that shook him.

"Then why didn't the stars help you?" asked Mr. Hartono who questioned the existence of the Star.

"Surya and Bintang had a dispute Mr ... Surya thinks the Moon is cheating on him with the stars. The man was so enveloped in emotion that he treated the Stars and the Moon so harshly." again he told Mr. Hartono.

The middle-aged man seemed to be sighing. "However, such an act is not justified. Everything can be discussed well."

The moon raised her face a little. "Sir, actually the Moon and Surya have been pause for almost two months. Before the fasting month." said the Moon honestly this time.

The middle-aged couple seemed surprised by the Moon's words. They did not expect if his son turned out to secretly save his own problems without sharing with them.

"Why pause?" asked Mr. Hartono while looking at the Moon.

"That's .. it's because the Moon told Surya honestly that the Stars liked the Moon all along. The moon is honest, and the response is to take a pause." replied the Moon.

"Other times if there's anything, don't dip it yourself to Ndug .. as a parent, it's much better if we know everything from you. Not from anyone else. Father and Mother are also disappointed, if you hide everything yourself like this. Understood?"

Moon nodded her head listening to the words of her Father, the girl realized that she was hiding everything and could only be honest now. "Good Mr. .. Forgive the Moon. Other times, the Moon will always be open to you and your Mom" he said.

"Then, now what's your decision?" again asked Mr. Hartono to the Moon.

Hearing and getting asked what his decision was made the girl speechless. He tried to dive into his thoughts as well as what he wanted right now.

So what decision did the Moon make?
