My cousin, Canduku

My cousin, Canduku
Connecting Room Door


Blue Ocean, a 27-year-old man who just finished the sport looked down.


Moon, yes...


Her cousin is getting more beautiful and mature.


"Marriage because of bread." Blue murmur with a thin grin. His eyes could not be separated from the Moon who smiled faintly at Dina's ravings.


"Oh, there it is! Blue Ocean, the Moon is coming. Quick down!" Shouted Dina, the mother to him.


Their eyes met for only two seconds, then the girl turned her face away from Blue's gaze. For a moment Blue felt something was wrong. The Moon's response should not be like that.


No exclaiming. The moon doesn't seem interested in him, and makes Blue go back to the room.


"Duh, how the hell. Guests come instead of going down and leave!"


Actually there is no need, because the Moon does not want to be too familiar with the children Dina. For him, he just needed a new atmosphere. As promised Dina, Moon has been enrolled in college and Moon will find a side job. She did not want to rely on her tant, not to mention that the Moon had heard of, Dina's husband, Cakra, was not a friendly man.


"Sorry Blue, Moon. He is the same as new people. Well, when it is, the Moon is not a new person, yes."


'Blue Samudra, last met I think when I was in 1st grade Junior High. Her... Just finished his High School I think.'


"What a hell, aunt."


"South, he's out. That kid is rarely at home. Yuk, up."


"What class is South now, auntie." Ask Moon for pleasantries, while climbing the stairs to the second floor.


"South anyway, want to go up to 3rd grade. But his behavior, haduh..." Dina patted her forehead.


"School boy anyway, regular, Tan.."


"So different he is with Blue who always gets a champion.." Dina opened the room door, making the Moon's eyes widen. Whoa...


"Moon, sorry. This is a small room."


'Small what. This is it, rich living room and my room merged into one.'


The Moon's eyes continued to stare around the space that would become her room.


"May the Moon like. Aunty has replaced the curtains and bed linen with pink. Just bought aunty, especially for the girls in this house."


"Thank you a lot, Tan. The moon is very happy..."


"Together, baby." Dina grabbed both hands of Moon to sit on the edge of the bed and she held them gently. "Thank God, my aunt loves the moon." Say it with a smile. "Tante is saddened by what the Moon is going through. Auntie hope, here the Moon can forget all that made the Moon sad..."


Dina's words actually made the Moon's smile fade. "Auntie is very good. Same mom who thinks only of herself."


Dina sighed hearing the Moon's complaints. "Moon know, you used to have a twin."


The moon nodded quickly. Yes, he had heard that often from neighbors and other relatives. It's just, Nita never talked about it.


"Name Star. Your brother. At the age of two months, he became ill and died. Moon knows not, one week after the Star died, mbak Nita had to swallow another bitter reality when she saw papa Bulan. Nita's mother has not healed her heart left by Bintang, but must be sick again because of the death of her husband. In fact, he was willing to run away to be married to Rudiantoro, papa Bulan."


Oh, really? This one, the Moon never knows. Because every time he asked me where papa was, his mother always went on a rampage and told him that he was long dead.


"Mas Rudi, he's gone after that. Never knew of its existence. You never moved house, but he never came back. After that, Nita had also been in a relationship with a man, but failed because it turned out that the man had a wife and children. Until now he had never thought about the man in his life."


Moon lowered. On this he never knew. His relationship with Nita was very bad, especially Moon often hurt by the words that came out of Nita's mouth.


"Mbak Nita was hurt a lot, Moon. Even from birth. Moon knows right, if your aunt and mama were born from different mothers? Nita's mother, it treated her badly. And when she finds Rudi's affection, she feels it's her way away from her mother. But apparently, his fate was even so."


Ah, the Moon's heart was saddened to hear it. Nita always said that she used to be a stupid girl.


"Aunty spoke up not to defend. Auntie tau mbak Nita is also wrong, do not think about your feelings, Moon. But, actually, life's hard to make his mindset fall apart."


"Moon.. will try to understand, aunt." Answer with a smile. "Thank you a lot, aunt. Moon grateful aunt wants to help education Moon."


"Anytime, baby. Moon knows, from the first aunt wants to bring the Moon here. But the Moon doesn't want to..." He said, stroking Moon's hair lovingly. "Yes, you rest, yeah. Auntie's coming down to have dinner."


"Belief month, tan.."


"Eh, don't. Just rest. Okay?" Dina came out of the Moon's room, closed the door leaving the Moon which immediately laid itself on the super padded mattress.


"Heah. That, yeah. So my dad is actually still alive. How yes, the man. Ck, why is my life so so." Mumbled himself.


The moon rose, his intention to arrange the goods that have been delivered to the room since. But he prefers to hold the glass window curtains wide, until it looks quite spacious balcony in front of him.


The moon opened the door, swapping the deep air for new air. Then he inhaled a deep breath of oxygen, hoping that his heart would be clear of the bad air he felt last night.


Suddenly his mind remembered Andra. That fucking guy came in last night and went into his room...


The night the Moon looked for her earrings, her bedroom door was knocked on, then opened without being asked, and Andra appeared.


"Moon..."


Seeing his presence, the Moon's emotions peaked again. Her tears were not completely dry.


"Ngapain here! Go there!" Shouted the girl while pushing Andra out of her room.


"No!" The moon tried to close the door, not wanting to see or listen to Andra. His feelings are too painful. But he lost steam with Andra, who managed to get in and close the door.


"Moon, horrify me.. " The sound and the face of his joints almost made the moon fall.


"I don't want to see you! Out!" Shouting the Moon fast.


"Please.." Andra grasped both shoulders of the Moon and pressed them against the wall. "Moon, please. I beg you, terrorize me."


The moon revolted, crying sobbing. "Do you know where I hurt? You will not understand how my heart hurts with this treatment of yours. Go..."


"Yes, I know. I'm sorry..." Andra pulls the Moon in her arms, and the girl is able to fight back yet for free. Andra was so strong, that the Moon finally resigned when Andra held her, until her feet fell, and the moon sat down with a bitter cry.


What did Andra do? His actions left the Moon in torment. Hugging like this, he never did...


The man repeatedly whispered an apology to the Moon. Trying to calm the sobbing Moon because she has destroyed the love and affection of the Moon on her. But really, his heart was also crushed to see everything that happened today. He was not calm when the Moon knew everything.


Andra pecked long at the head of the Moon which had been her lover for two years, and never had this girl denied anything she said.


If it is allowed to turn the clock back, then Andra will try harder to change and really, he will make the Moon the only love of his life, considering how this woman was with him. But circumstances that are difficult to explain lead him towards what he is now.


The moon pushed Andra's body until the man sat down. The moon bent its knees and turned its head to the side, reluctant to look at Andra.


Andra took a position, sitting leaning next to the Moon.


"Sorry, Moon..."


Sick, the moon tired of hearing it.


The moon wiped away her tears, not yet willing to look at the man.


"Sorry I hurt your heart, Moon. At first I thought if you knew I was like this, I'd calm down. It turns out, I was even tormented to see you cry like that." Andra. His gaze was straight, to the photo of him and the Moon still hanging on the wall of the girl's room.


"Moon, I was serious when I told you that I love you. I ain't lying. Still rang your affection to me this afternoon. Also a brief kiss on the cheek that made me tremble. And suddenly there was guilt when you wiped my cheek out of fear I was angry. Honestly speaking. You know, I think if we get married, I can go back to the way I used to be, the Moon. I can love you as a normal man. But he's..." Andra's voice choked. He took a breath before continuing.


"He threatened suicide. So I'm..."


Moon closed his eyes, hate to hear this especially that man named Bobi jerk.


"I don't know what to do the first time you saw me there. I was upset because I wanted to quit all this. But after I think about it, you deserve better than me, Moon."


The moon crying has not stopped. He covered his face with both hands. Sniffed until his chest tightened. While Andra wanted to pull her back in an embrace, but the Moon pushed her body.


"Go away. I don't have the energy to beat you up, Andra." He said in a nearly exhausted voice. All day she was crying, tired.


"Thank you for not telling mom who I really am, Moon."


"I did it for your mother. Not for you."


"I know.. " There was a pause created between them, and Andra just stared at the Moon before he left.


"Part yourself, Moon. Take care of your health." Andra patted Moon's head softly before she left, making the girl hysterically return after hearing her door close.


The moon pulled and tore through the photos of the idol artist with abdominal muscles plastered on its walls. Somehow he became disgusted to see all the photos that he used to love.


.


Huwff.. Just thinking about what happened last night made the Moon's chest tight again. She wiped away her tears that fell by the speck due to the warming of her eyes every memory of Andra.


Even so, somehow the hatred that had appeared, slowly decayed after Andra told everything. The Moon made him the best man of his life.


Damnit. The moon turned her face, taking a deep breath so that her heart would calm down again.


The moon doesn't want to remember that anymore. He closed the curtains, and chose to arrange the items only.


But his steps stopped, the Moon's gaze diverted to one door in the middle. What door, yeah. The bathroom, not that one. A closet? Nope.


Moon approaching. If you see it, this is the door of the room. Wanting to know what room, the Moon moved her handel.


He pushed the door wide to see clearly what was in the room. But truly unlucky, his eyes caught an eye-destroying sight.


One sec. Yes, just for a second, the Moon reflexively closed the door and cursed in her heart.


Shit-Sial-Sial!!


'So this is the connecting door between my room and the Blue Ocean's room?'


The moon is looking for a key, wanting to permanently close that door. But not found. Then there was the sound of a key playing violently from across, making the Moon fixate for a moment.


There has not been an hour he was in the house, instead saw Blue changing clothes. Damn sight.


The new moon opened the suitcase instantly silent as his mind caught on to something.


"Don't you Blue....Hiyy." The moon was wondering to imagine it.
