Dusk Above the Horizon

Dusk Above the Horizon
A point of hope people don't have


Dusk was clearly momentarily silent, staring at the pillow that was patted by Cakra's hand for some time.


He was hesitating, afraid to lie down.


"Then have dreams of college where if there is a fortune?"


Cakra reopens the sound, letting Dusk choose his choice to lie down or sit down, but he believes long conversations in two positions will make it difficult for Dusk,the girl will eventually choose her best position and she does not have to force it.


"I haven't thought that far"


Twilight answered slowly.


"But SMA time is usually never thought of where to go? it is impossible if not to think about where to continue if there is a windfall?"


"Saying father too high of hope'


He lowered his head back.


"That's part of the plan, not the hope of Dusk, those two things are quite different, just as their needs or desires also have different meanings or definitions"


Little chakra protest.


Dusk immediately developed his smile spontaneously.


"I know"


"Say where were you planning that time?"


He's waiting for his answer.


Dusk looks timid.


"University of Indonesia, perhaps..."


The voice sounded so smooth.


Hearing the twilight utterance the moment the Cakra eyeballs are rounded.


"Tell me the grades of report and degree?"


he was curious, all this time only concerned about the marriage agreement.


"Since Kindergarten has always been ranked 1st, only in SD rank 2 because the 1st son of the principal hahaha"


"That's the natural thing Mak said when I cried home with the Ranking 2 report, feeling unaccepted because I was so sure all my subjects were clear on top of him, even in my class the most flashy and even the smartest take the heart of the teacher, no one dislikes me"


He remembered at that time, crying as much as facing mother because getting the number 2 in his report.


"when SMP returned to rank 1 to High School, do not expect when High School still survive even become a school champion, therefore the homeroom teacher always said, will finish high school well, baby.."


Dusk stopped his words.


"Because it was before graduation hoping to get there, but when you were critical so many times, I threw away my dreams all the way, when they said they got a scholarship, they said they got a scholarship, but that doesn't mean the cost of living is borne by the government, does it?"


Dusk tells as if to remember the memories of the heavy years yesterday.


"Mak is also afraid to release me in a big city, Mak said in a big city many men are able to destroy the future of innocent village girls, Mak, his word is college here, but it turns out I still can not divide the time between work and college, the more time I eroded work, the more difficult for me to go to college, the more difficult it is for me to go to college, Lubuklinggau no work 24 hours, working hours range from 7 am to 5 pm, if there is a ship starting from 3 pm to 10 pm, if there is a ship, father's health was much more important at that time, I worked in 2 places to be able to reduce the burden when you know your father is getting worse and will be in surgery"


Dusk did not continue his words, he raised his head, trying to hold back his cries that might be spilled.


The chakra was silent, choosing silence, she inched from her position, grabbed Dusk slowly and drowned him into her embrace.


"sorry"


Only that sentence is capable of being spoken Cakra.


"I just spontaneously wanted to cry"


He sobbed in Cakra's arms, holding onto the weight never to escape for years, he had hopes and ideals, but he threw all of them away because of circumstances.


He often said.


If I were rich, had money, I could do it all.


You don't have to live like this, do you?!.


But he did not regret it, out there there there is more sad than his life, he can still go to school to High School, not a few who did not even finish their school education because of the circumstances.


Grateful is the only way Dusk can get through his life.


Until he enters at the lowest point, opting to accept Cakra's offer for the gaffer's operating expenses.


"Everything must be fine"


Cakra still hugged her, whispering softly while stroking gently behind the head of Dusk.
