Episode 21: The Star

All say peacock is the most beautiful creature, the,

But for himself,

He is the most beautiful creature

Because his feet are dirty

As the two conversed, the carriage entered a tunnel in a mountain, slowly fading, dimming, and then disappearing. It was left dark from inside the tunnel that was said to have stood for a long time. The beautiful panorama is now covered in black shadows as the story of my life and life. As for Arafis, he was simply observing the way I was providing assistance to Elvy.

The young man was just an observer at the time. Observing the direction of the conversation of two people who have the same understanding and life history, a packet of potato chips became his best friend, opened and then eaten barbeque-flavored chips. He doesn't care about the darkening of the old tunnel. As long as there's a snack, everything's fine.

The more intense the conversation, the darker the brighter the direction of the conversation. Whether it's an idea, complaint, confession, experience or vision of each girl, including about the bright stars brought by them. I have a red star, while Elvy has a magenta-colored light bulb.

***

I explain the main function of the object and how to use it so as not to use it incorrectly. The little girl listened to what I said carefully and solemnly. Arafis still enjoys his ordered coffee. I explained the bright object according to my experience. The two stars grew brighter as they came closer together to replace the train lights that were entering the dark tunnel. The stars illuminated us both according to their colors.

"You know why we got stars like this?"

"Because they chose us?"

"That's one of them, but there's more to it than that."

"What is that brother?"

"This star is our guide, he guides us when we make mistakes."

"So, is this some kind of alarm?"

"Absolutely. In addition, this becomes the key to everything if we doubt or are in turmoil. If the book you received becomes a guide to insight, then the star we have becomes a guide to the spirit of Elvy."

"It turns out this thing has a lot to use, brother."

"Oh yeah, do you know what the guards' duties are?"

"I just found out some of it, brother, about keeping people from misguided."

"Good, you understand the main task. But I'll go into more detail about each guard's duties."

"Good brother."

I explained the guards' duties in detail. There are three main tasks for each guard. The first guard has the task of conveying an important message to those chosen, as well as guiding it. Then the task of the second guard is to give provision in the form of sustenance, insight and happiness to all beings. And lastly is the third guard who has the task of taking lives for the already-timed and showing them the way, which path to go for the soul that meets the light.

Elvy was silent at once. His originally cheerful face suddenly turned pale. The empty glass fell to the floor of the kekerak when I was going to the third guard duty. He is shocked to learn that the main task for him is to take his life. I was not surprised by his expression because I used to be the same. But it's my job to explain what to say for what it is.

"Sister, is this really my job?" Ask with a doubtful tone.

"That's right, I used to feel your anxiety too, before I was in your position too."

"Never been the third guard?"

"That's right, I was in your position at the beginning of my debut. I was afraid at that time because I had to take the life of someone I didn't want to take. But there is a special experience for me, an experience that is precious to us."

"What experience is a sis?"

"That death is not the end but the beginning of a new life. We may think death is a disaster, but we do not know what is behind it. Death is always feared as a disaster, but if you want to meet the creator you need to go through this stage."

"What's my sister like?"

"It's like my story before. At the beginning of this task, I met a girl who was dying. He suffered from severe pain and his family's condition was also veiled by a fairly strange problem. He wished to live longer but the fate line said another. He must leave the mortal realm for the realm of eternity."

"A sickly girl? I seem to be no stranger to him?"

"Before I was afraid to take the girl's life considering she had a strong determination to meet her brother who had long gone with his father somewhere. He wanted to say goodbye for the last time. Because no one but her brother understands her. Her brother who became the interlocutor and poured out his grievances."

"Then I tried to explain what would happen in nature. What would happen if he left and how the people around him did it. The truth will be revealed when we die. We'll know who really cares and who just uses it. And finally I want to take her to nature there quietly. He was willing to give up his determination to meet his brother later there. In my notes, he'll meet his loved ones when he returns to the light."

"So far!"

"What's Elvy?"

"May I ask you a little bit about that person?"

"Of course I can."

"What is your name, the man you told me about?"

"his name? Her name is Serena."

"S-serena?"

"Yes, do you know him?"

"D-he's my sister brother, she's my sister whom I've been missing all this time. I really miss him and he's the person I love the most."

"So, is he your sister?"

"Yes, brother, he's my brother that brother told me about."

"Oh my God, this is what all this means. Apparently God wants to bring us together in a series of unexpected destinies."

"meaning?"

"I was placed as the third guard at the beginning of my duty in order to meet a girl who replaced me later. It's been set up to solidify both of our beliefs. You and I both have similarities."

"What resemblance?"

"You're both short, aren't you?" Cetus Arafis with guyon.

We shot it with a sharp look and a sullen face. Arafis took his chips and ate them. We know that our posture is short, but it doesn't feel good to hear. Instantly Arafis smiled seeing us pouting like a duck, with a guyon tone he continued eating.

"Well, maybe I need to check the chips if it's salted yet... Oh please continue your conversation, my friend."

"According to a sage, All say peacock is the most beautiful creature, but to him, he is the most despicable creature because of his dirty feet."

"Then?"

“So, we are both peacocks, who actually hope to be pigeons only, only a pigeon. So there is no burden and gossip from the chirping of other Elvy birds."

"But we've already become peacocks, we can't back down anymore."

"You're starting to know my way of thinking, baby!"

"If it's an ostrich? Peacocks are too short." Arafis.

"ARAPHYSICS, OHBA!!!!" Shouted the two of us, although different calls but the tempo is the same.

"You guys are really compact huh, hehehe."

We enjoyed the drinks we ordered. In the darkness there must be a glimmer of light, both from the outside and from the inside. No one thought that fate planned everything. Mysteries will be answered at the end of our journey and be grateful for what is currently available. Because we don't know what will happen in the future.
