Space And Time
Rooftop Part 2's

After letting Adel cry for about fifteen minutes in his arms and the girl seemed to have calmed down, the Emperor slowly pulled his arms from Adel.

The emperor did an unexpected action, the young man wiped Adel's tears with his fingers very gently. Obviously Adel was also very surprised to get such treatment. The Emperor then ordered Adel to sit on a bench there while enjoying the view of the city that is now no longer foggy as before, the rain has subsided and replaced with a cool breeze that decorates the night.

Time shows at two o'clock in the morning, whether the problems they both face so they are both awake until the turn of the day. The atmosphere became very awkward, those who always fought every time they met now had to be in a very different situation than usual.

After the events of a few years ago where he learned Anika had an affair from Rendra, behind his harsh nature, the Emperor also grew into a figure more sensitive to women's feelings. So that he could not see any woman crying in front of him directly like this.

The emperor cleared his throat slowly then said, "It turns out that rich little rancid can cry too." Said the Emperor in a joking tone, he was trying to melt the atmosphere.

Adel reversed the Emperor's words, "And the rich nyebelin you can be gentle too."

They both laughed at their own words.

After a few moments of silence, the Emperor opened his voice, "It must be a big deal, huh?" The Emperor asked carefully so that Adel would not be offended by his question.

"Well, without problems we can't be strong people, right?" Adel answered, his eyes only looking at the lights that adorn the city.

"What is strong? The evidence was about to jump from up here." Temptation Emperor.

Adel smiled bitterly then replied, "Yes because I'm not a strong enough person."

"Lo know? God will not give trials, beyond the limits of His servant." Emperor Saying.

"Yes yes I know, but everything is not as easy as we imagine."

The Emperor raised his eyebrows, "Then?"

Adel paused for a moment and let out a long sigh before saying, "Oh, everything suddenly feels so heavy."

The Emperor nodded slowly at Adel's words, he understood the feeling because he had also experienced something that was very devastating to his life, even though there was no thought to end his life. But he made it through it all and was able to get a better life, at least before Rendra came back to his current life.

Adel continued his words, "You did not come, maybe I did..." Adel could not continue his own words.

Adel turned to the Emperor and smiled, "Thank you for me."

The emperor felt awkward as Adel smiled at him, he cleared his throat slowly before saying, "Just relax, although it's not lo, I will also help that person."

"Yes I know." Answer Adel briefly.

"If you need a story place, you can tell me." The emperor suddenly said so.

Adel was stunned to hear the Emperor's words, he just looked at the Emperor without saying anything.

The Emperor who got such a look felt like he had mispronounced, "Eh but if you don't want to be okay, I don't mean it." He said while shaking his hand.

Adel hurriedly changed the glare of his eyes, he smiled wryly then said, "No, you're not wrong. I'm just happy because this time there are people who want to hear my story."

"You don't have a friend, haha." The Emperor asked in a joking manner, thinking it could be a little comforting for Adel but the reality was wrong.

Adel who heard that then turned his gaze and looked towards the sky, "Yes, the cave has no peace." It was seen from the look in his eyes that Adel was sad when he said so.

The Emperor immediately stopped his laughter after finding out he had already offended Adel, "Eh? I'm sorry I don't know."

"It's okay, I'm ordinary." Adel replied, then he took a deep breath and closed his eyes long enough.

The guilty emperor could only fall silent, he chose to look at the sights of the city lights for fear of mispronouncing again. Silence was created between the two for a long time.

After a long silence, Adel finally said, "I'm suffering from a psychiatric disorder." Adel said, leading the Emperor to look at him.
