Meteor Rain

After over forty-eight hours of questioning, Elano was finally able to temporarily feel the fresh air outside the police station, of course on bail. "You can be free this time with a guarantee and I hope you can be more maintain your attitude or not travel abroad. Your current status is still a suspect of assault. I don't want it if you make your status even heavier." Adrian's lawyer said firmly to Elano. The lawyer did not want his good name that had guaranteed his client was destroyed because of Elano's carelessness.

"Just calm down, I won't aggravate my own status. But I hope we can win this case." Elano answered no less emphatically the words of Adrian's lawyer, Elano who at that time was wearing an old gray hoodie and jeans look a bit messy. A temporary stay at the prodeo hotel made the man unable to freely tidy up.

"I'll try my best with your case. But I also implore your cooperation to be more careful in acting." Adrian's lawyer replied, followed by a nod of Elano's head.

Elano enters Adrian's lawyer's large car, until the shiny black car is seen driving away from the police station.

.....

Samuel looked a little furious, clenching his palms tightly upon hearing the news from his personal lawyer. "How could he possibly be parole, huh?!" growled Sam, looking intently at the lawyer before him at this moment.

"I'm sorry Mr. Samuel, Mr. Elano's lawyer who warrants him with a stake in his integrity."

"And Mr. Elano's current status is still a suspect, it does not rule out the possibility that the status will rise to the defendant. You just calm down. That freedom of expression is only temporary." Lawyer Rudi explained in detail.

"You mean?"

"Police officers will be twenty-four hours following all Elano's gestures. Of course this case will soon go to court. If all the evidence can incriminate Elano then the judge's decision will definitely be on our side" the lawyer said.

"I leave everything to you, Elano must accept all the consequences." Samuel is now a little calmer, he believes that Elano will end up in prison. Whatever Sam will do to prevent the man from hurting Maya again.

"Next week Miss Maya will be questioned by the police. Please direct Miss Maya to be calm later in answering all questions from investigators," continued lawyer Rudi.

Sam nodded, "Of course, lawyer," replied Samuel confidently.

"Thank you, please arrange all these problems."

"All right, please leave first. If there's any news I'll report to you." Rudi's lawyer extended a hand to Sam who was immediately greeted by Samuel. Letting Rudi's lawyer out of his mansion.

Sam grabs the phone on the nightstand, makes a call there. "Hello, Bay__ I need financial statements and the results of our cooperation with our new client from the cosmetics company __okay I wait__ bye."

Sam disconnected his call, then walked back to the balcony of his room, breathing heavily at the thought of all the problems he was facing right now. Sometimes he gets tired of everything. The work that piled up to make him ignore his meal and now added to the problem with Elano and Freya who still contact him without knowing the time.

It was as if the girl had already severed her veins when faced with Samuel.

But after remembering Maya, strangely all the fatigue is gone. Maya can always be Samuel's moodboster. She now pulled a little from the corner of her lips as she recalled Maya's figure in her mind. Now Samuel suddenly missed the girl.

....

The noise of the mobile phone ringing accompanied by vibrations that make the sound of friction between flat objects with a wooden table collide disturbing the calmness and tranquility of his sleep that night. Maya is forced to open her eyes, seeing a name written on the long screen of her smartphone. Samuel.read it in your heart.

With her eyes closed slightly, Maya pressed the green button, bringing her flattened phone screen between her ears and chubby cheeks. "Assalamualaikum, Sam___ yes I'm sleeping___ Now? but this is malem___ Iya-iya I went there___ hhmm Assalamualaikum..."

Maya turns off her phone, slightly squinting her eyes at the round wall clock attached to the wall of her room. Eleven o'clock in the night. Why did Samuel ask him to come to the man's mansion? It's too late to just visit.

Maya gets up and sits on the edge of the bed, trying to reclaim her life that has yet to be fully accumulated. Vaporized for a while and rubbed the two netra with his wiggly finger. Is Sam in trouble? it's not usually like this, Maya thought.

What would he say to his mother when asking for permission later, he thought again. Without thinking much more, Maya got up from her seat, walking towards the bathroom. Tidied up for a while after he finally walked out to his mother's room.

"Mama hasn't slept?" Maya was a little relieved to see Siska who was still awake.

"Mama's not sleepy, baby," Siska replied. The woman was still busy with the numbers and also her little calculator.

"Mama's work continues tomorrow, it's late. Mama rest first, May doesn't want mama to get sick later."

Siska smiled for a while, stroking the back of Maya's hand that was stuck on her shoulder.

"Yes, it's also over soon. Oh yeah you yourself why are you still awake at this hour, hhmm?" Maya is a little misbehaved by the question back from her mother.

"Emmm. iit.... Sam...." Maya did not continue her speech, slightly poked her off and looked at Siska's confused face.

"Sam why? he's healthy, right?"

Maya smiled for a moment, "It's healthy, ma cuu mmaa. earlier she just called May, and..."

"And what's Maya?"

Maya took a short breath, "Sam asked May to come to her house right now," paused her sentence for a moment. "Where's Ma? can't May go there?" continue the girl again.

"Those nights?"

"He em's... May doesn't know why she called Maya all of a sudden at night and told May to go to her house."

Siska smiled for a moment, stroking Maya's black hair. Tuck the girl's hair behind her ear.

"Yes, you've just left, who knows Sam has a problem." Siska smiled for a moment.

"Yes, as long as you take care of yourself. Mama doesn't want you guys to forget yourself." Siska continued her words.

"Yes, May will take care of herself. After May makes sure that Sam is okay, Maya will go straight home" Maya replied.

The girl kissed both cheeks of the mother, "May left first. Assalamualaikum..."

"Waalaikumsalam, be careful dear."

"Yes, Ma.." answered Maya, the girl grabbed the car keys on the refrigerator and got into the car that Anita gave her parked in her yard. He began to pull his luxurious sedan gas at a steady pace towards the Samuel residence.

.....

"Here's sam where's the bik? she's all right, bik?" maya asked as soon as the aunt opened the door for her.

Brondongan questions worried Maya makes the aunt wonder.

"Den Sam is in his room, and he is not" replied the aunt. Maya did not pay much attention to the aunt's answer. He went straight up the circular staircase into Samuel's room.

"Sam... You're okay, right?" Maya opened her eyes as soon as she saw Samuel sitting on the balcony of the room with a large telescope there.

"Here you go, May. I show you something." Sam was still looking up at the sky with his telescope. Maya approached slowly, sitting on a small chair beside Sam.

"What do you see?" ask Maya wonder.

"Try to see, hunt ... will hunt down the meteor shower."

Maya's eyebrows are partially attracted, meteor shower....? his inner. Without waiting any longer Maya took over the telescope from Samuel. Closer her eyeballs towards the lens and suddenly Maya's smile is fully attracted. "Sam.. This is so beautiful.." cried Maya with eyes still attached to the telescope's round lens.

"Good right, baby?"

"Hhmm...." Maya nods vigorously with attention still centered on the night sky.

Staring at the night sky with thousands or perhaps even billions of shooting stars that resemble a rain of stars, Maya is the most beautiful moment with Samuel. If he had seen the constellations in the sky made by the Planetarium with Sam, now Maya is lucky to have a chance to see the meteor shower directly from the balcony of Samuel's room.

"How do you know if there's gonna be a meteor shower tonight, Sam?"

"This is the Perseid meteor shower that occurs every year in August. This meteor shower is the most beautiful, baby. Because there are so many light delays," explained Samuel. Now they sit on the balcony enjoying the night sky which was very clear, no cloudy in the least. The scattering of starlight from the constellations is obvious even if only viewed with the naked eye.

"You know? the meteor shower that occurred when the earth rubbed against the ruins around Comet Switf-Tuttle occurred in the skies of Bosnia Hezergovina but can be seen in the skies of Indonesia," continued Sam again, the man's head was still looking up at the night sky.

Maya that night saw Sam's handsome face look so dazzling, as if a radiance of starry light was bouncing on the slightly bule face. Maya sees Samuel's aura of charm add up again when the man explains about planets and meteor showers which to Maya is something alien.

"You like the stars so much, Sam?" ask Maya. The question just crossed Maya's mind. Doesn't Sam have his own Planetarium? and that proves that the question may be the truth.

Sam now looks back at Maya's face, smiling for a while before he finally returns to the sky.

"Since childhood I have loved to watch the stars and the moon at night." Sam paused for a moment. Closer to Maya and back leaning the body on the balcony walls of her room.

"When my mom and dad went on business, I always forgot about my loneliness by looking at the stars. Count them one by one until I fall asleep." Sam stopped his words and chuckled, I don't know what the laugh meant, but Maya said the little laugh was very cold.

"Ironistic, right? a child who is very fulfilled needs of his life but feels deprived every time he sees his friends can laugh and play with both their parents." Sam continued his words again, this time looking briefly at Maya.

Maya can feel the loneliness that Sam once felt. Maya does not have a father who accompanies her growth and development, but she is grateful to have a mother who is always near her despite all the struggles and sacrifices.

"Mk...." Maya could not continue her words, looking at Iye Samuel.

"If I had a child, I wouldn't let him experience all the loneliness and sadness I've ever had." Samuel continued his words. Looking towards Maya and looking at the girl softly.

"Mk...." Again Maya can only say one word, calling the name of the man she loved so much.

"We should be able to be caring parents for our children later, baby,

"I beg you, do not hesitate to rebuke me firmly. Okay, baby...?" sam asked, gently stroking the tears that came out of the corner of Maya's eyes.

The girl nodded quickly. For some reason all Sam's actions, all the man's words always hypnotize Maya. He could feel the pain Sam had ever felt.

"I'll remember it and do it, Sam." replied Maya with a small laugh between her sobs.

Maya really loves the guy who used to be so arrogant and annoying.

Already at 00.45 WIB, somehow the drowsiness that was so agonizing Maya is now suddenly gone. They were still sitting side by side, leaning against each other's shoulders and observing the night sky with all the radiance of the heavenly bodies there. It was like trying to find their stars. Sam clasped his hand on Maya's back. While occasionally tucking the back of the hand is soft.
