Shanum Smile
Chapter 54

Dewi and Shanum also came out of the hall carrying snacks and bottled mineral water. They chose to sit on a circular staircase at the end of the building. The place was in a corner, rarely passed by people. They were sitting on the stairs facing each other.

"Num, can you tell why Lo broke off contact with the Earth sister?" asked the Goddess, sitting down with both hands supporting her face.

Shanum suddenly heard the sudden question. He had not expected before, if his friend was going to ask him something very personal.

"Ekhem..." Shanum cleared his throat to neutralize his choked voice in shock.

"Why did you suddenly ask about that?" shanum replied with a slightly trembling voice.

"Why? Because I care about Lo, same brother Earth too. You love each other, but why should you separate? I've seen my kidneys hurt, let alone you!" the Goddess spray is upset.

"If you have kidney pain, consume avocado!" cut Shanum with his cake.

"Lo!" screams Goddess annoyed. "When I talk to you can be serious, Num!" coined.

"Lo said kidney pain, so I just give you advice. Avocados are good to know for health!" sahut Shanum defended himself.

Shanum deliberately diverted the conversation because he no longer wanted to discuss the break-up of his relationship with Earth. However he did not want his personal problems to become public consumption.

"Lo can be serious, Num! I knew that Lo needed comfort, needed a shoulder to lean on. That's why I asked Lo, so what? Let me help you, Lo! At least slightly lighten the load of Lo's mind," the Goddess snapped at first, and softened at the end of the speech.

Tears of the Goddess flowed because they felt sorry for Shanum. After hearing the real news of Shanum's illness, Dewi wanted to get closer. However, ever since the incident in the seventh grade back then Shanum seemed to shut himself up. The Goddess was aware that she had gone too far, but that time was only intending to joke. Not to mention that joke brought disaster to Shanum.

"Gue is okay, Wi. Really!"

"But... Isn't Lo currently sick?" ask the Goddess doubtfully.

"ill? Medically I am sick. But my body doesn't feel any pain at all. Especially since I had a healthy diet and enough rest. Now you see for yourself, don't you?" shanum replied with a fluffy smile.

Shanum opened the lid of the bottle of mineral water and took a sip, to moisten the throat. After that he ate the snack he had brought. The goddess only looked and noticed Shanum.

"Why did you even see me eating? If you don't want me to eat!" shanum said as he chewed on his favorite mud cake.

"Eat if you're not satisfied eating it! I'm glad you want to ruin my food. You see Lo'kan from the first difficult to eat together," said Dewi with a bright mind a few years ago.

Shanum was once very closed. Offered food was immediately rejected regardless of the circumstances at the time. However, Shanum never hesitated to give his food to be enjoyed by the crowd.

"Gue joked times, Wi. Eat this alone is full, why also I eat the ration Lo! I'll throw up if I'm full. You eat that cake!"shanum said, his hand reopened the bottle. Shanum drank until half a bottle was left.

"Huh, you're starving, Num?" asked Dewi bengong to see Shanum had drunk water in a bottle.

After the cake they brought was finished, Dewi had not allowed Shanum to move from his seat.

"Lo I'll let go after telling you why Lo decided to leave Earth! First story, just let go of Lo's hand!" said Dewi after getting resistance from Shanum.

Hhh...

Shanum sighed harshly. Finally he had to reveal all the wackings he had of his heart.

"A few months ago, when exactly I didn't want to. I and my sister went to the mall for shopping. Didn't meet Aunt Ana on purpose. We say hello to each other, it's a big fan. His name is also rarely met, once met a scene!"

"Again cool talking, suddenly Mutia approached us. He was looking for me because he suddenly disappeared from before him. And aunt Ana asked, who is she. I keep answering honestly, if that's my brother Mutia. Aunt Anna's dumbass, look at Mutia's mbak wearing a big hijab."

"Ana repeatedly asked if we were joking, but we replied that we were not joking. It seems, aunt Anna couldn't believe it. So we decided to talk while eating. We chose the nearest cafe that did not. From that chat, finally aunt Anna knows that I am not the real son of Mr. Arsena. Aunty Anna's face was like disappointed to keep saying goodbye. That's it anyway!" shanum's story is long and wide.

"Keep Lo mutusin Earth unilaterally, will you?" ask Goddess.

"It's not because of that, I'm mutusin Bumi..."

"Keep what?" cut the curious Goddess.

"Prophey! Don't cut anyone else up!" shanum was upset that his story was cut by the Goddess.

"OK! Ok! No more, continue the story! I was horrified until it was clear everything," said the Goddess while propping her chin with both hands.

"Lo must have known, right? If I have cancer of the lymph nodes, the rest of my life I do not know until when. I don't want to be a burden on Earth. Moreover, we are still in school, it is better to focus on school first. If it is a soul mate, someday it will be united. That's the saying, if it's true I don't know."

"I want to focus on school and medicine. Don't want to think about dating or anything. Moreover, I can not if too much thought or fatigue. I hope you can judge wisely. Not because I want to be defended, just don't interfere with my break-up with sister Earth!" Shanum ended the story with a fluffy smile, covering up the pain of a lump of flesh called a heart.

Enough Shanum himself who feels pain due to love in difference. Shanum prefers to keep his own problems. He chose to address all the problems he faced with God. According to him, complaining to God will not leak to anyone.

"Gue's sorry, Num. I made Lo break Lo's wound. I know, Lo must be really sick about all this. But, I'm sure Lo can certainly get through all this with a tough," said Dewi as he squandered, hugging the friend.

"Lo want to do me an apology?" dewi asked worriedly because Shanum was only silent from earlier.

"Tape! I'm sorry for Lo before you ask" Shanum said in between sobs.

"Haha..." They laugh while crying.
