The After 150
Your light
A dream between the air and asmaraloka, 150 nights they traveled together for many years ago where on that night behind the dark night sky scattered thousands of stars Space.
The glittering lake reflects the light of stars and the moon is forever full in the dream country, but for the dirga and rara who continue to shine brightest in the nights are themselves.
Dirga saw the figure of Rara like a moonlight that shines in the dark of the night, his presence that warms the heart and also gives hope for you will never escape from his heart.
As for Rara, she looks like a lost wanderer, lost without direction to go and go home, though behind it all feel an aura filled with stories and mysteries.
But as they come to their senses, after an unexpected breakup by the two as well as a change in the world that continues to be run by the flow of time, the two increasingly understand the meaning of 150 days ago, when the sky is dark, thousands of lights are decorated.
The meaning of a meeting, separation, and also the times they spend together, every moment becomes precious when they are with each other.
“Among those thousands of lights, you are the one who shines brightest.”
Chapter 2.8: Your Light
It does not feel like a month has passed since dirga was shocked by the presence of rara, in the beginning by understanding the meaning of living on a roof together, until now with the presence of the two fera separated.
For you, ever since he was separated by the fera, every meeting they went through felt shorter, slowly rara no longer emit light in his eyes, he said, a light that I always wait for and hold a taste.
It felt, as if a rarity was created between dirga and rara, it was for dirga, it was for dirga, as time passes, the distance between them will become longer and each step will feel heavier.
“Because of what you stayed away from me.” Mumbled while looking at the bright blue sky from the small terrace of the apartment.
“Hahh? Whahuh? I didn't hear what you said.” Answer the poppo who just came out of the bathroom with a toothbrush that is still in his mouth.
“Hei poppo, how do you think I can get close to rara?”
“How? Maybe by a joint way out? Or something.”
“How do I invite her? Where are you going?”
“Lah? Isn't tonight the right time?”
“What's up with tonight?”
“I haven't said yes? Fera invites us to the festival fantasrio.”
“Fantasyrio... Today is her night!?”
Fantasirio, there is a legend of the religion that is most believed in the countries of the western continent, the goddess fantasrio, according to the legend of society and religious records, dewi Fantasirio is a figure who ended the length of his time war.
With her agony as a goddess, she had the will to end the years-long war, and with her will after the war ended she ordered the people to party to celebrate peace.
“If in thought the name fantasrio it is not more suitable for men?” Mumbled dirga.
“As far as she is, after all a goddess, can do it all.”
From that morning towards nightfall, Dirga could think of nothing but the road at the night festival that was about to arrive, his body shuddered when he heard the news of the festival that appeared on tv and also written in the newspaper.
Fantasirio festival is known to be very sacred in the capital, a Festival Kingdom!! What everyone is looking forward to, really awaited by everyone, especially those who continue to think about it.
As the day became darker, the city lights were turned off and the lanterns hanging between the city lights were turned on.
Colored light, yellow, blue, purple, and white, decorate the city streets filled with lanterns and filled with people who rejoice, all walking together towards the top hill.
In the center of the capital, there is a giant hill with a very wide plain that is the destination of everyone during the night of the fantasy festival, at the top of the hill there is a giant temple in Yakini in it residing the goddess Fantasirio.
When seeing the crowds along the city road from the terrace of the apartment, the feeling of nervousness increased unbearably.
“Dirga!! Let's pick up the others above.” Poppo was waiting at the door of the apartment.
Dirga followed poppo and immediately locked the apartment door, as she stepped up the stairs she felt increasingly nervous, Arriving in front of the door of the apartment room poppo dirga took a long breath preparing her.
“You ready? I'll knock on the door.” Ask poppo.
“Ya just do it.”
Poppo knocked on the door three times and they were both greeted by Fera, seeing that Fera was already dressed up and wearing her fantasyrio outfit.
On the night of the festival fantasrio, there is a custom where every woman who attends the festival must worship and dress like the goddess fantasrio, in her teachings every woman who exists is an incarnation of him.
“Rara are you ready?” Ask Fera
Fera then went back inside to see Rara, then after a while later the fera moved back to the apartment door carrying Rara.
When dirga witnessed rara in the clothes of the goddess, she was speechless, never witnessed rara as beautiful as this in her entire life, really like a treasure of heaven that was toured to earth.
“So... What do you think?” Tanya Rara on the dirga in front of her.
“It looks very suitable with you..perfect.” Answer dirga.
Unknowingly the two of them were silent at the door of the apartment and looked at each other, inexplicably not as hot as the roof of the situation between the two nights became as awkward.
“Come we move?” Ask dirga.
“Yes, they've been waiting there.” Answer rara.
The two of them walked side by side with a small distance between the two, the feeling of nervousness and awkwardness continuing to follow along their steps side by side constantly making them to refuse to interact.
Along the road to the hill the situation did not change, although in front of them the fera and poppo kept busy talking, but the situation behind did not make any sound.
In the midst of the crowd and also the bright lights, they continued to refuse to talk and look at each other, the conditions on that night were very crowded, everyone walked together to the hill area.
Arriving at the hill area, people take turns visiting the temple and enjoying the festival night at the center of the event, at the foot of the hill the people gather her worth in the night market.
Lentela hung everywhere in the central area at the foot of the hill, people opened food stands and also small games as entertainment towards the top of the event, because right at 9 p.m., fireworks will be fired at the sky and mark the end of the fantasy festival.
Arriving at the crowded shopping center visitors, it only took a moment for Fera to disappear from the reach of poppo, with the feeling of uneasy poppo was forced to leave his own room and rara to look for fera.
Among the crowd around them, Dirga and Rara just kept quiet and did nothing, banhkan from the apartment until now both still refused to start talking to each other.
In his heart he did not want the night of the festival to continue as it is now, by gathering the determination he ventured to try to change the atmosphere, he slowly grabbed Rara's hand trying to grasp it.
Rara received the grip, once she realized she finally tried to stare at Rara and at that moment Rara had seen her with a smile, a feeling of relief fell upon her that night and they walked together.
“Is there something lately?” Ask dirga.
“Something? What like?” Rara's reply
“Yes how does it feel to live with fera? What happened during your stay?”
“In addition to telling me about your past, well not so much.” Reply with a small laugh.
“Yang right!? What did he tell you?”
“She said you cried while living alone in the playground, is that right?”
“Yahhh it... Sometimes I am afraid of loneliness.” Reply with her embarrassed face.
After spending some time in the shopping mall, the two looked for a place that was a little quieter than the crowd, between the streets of which there was an empty chair and both of them sat there.
Rara then looked at the sky, the atmosphere of the night sky in the capital was much different from in the dream world, where when they were only two in the dream world thousands of stars adorned the darkness of the night.
In the capital, the darkness of night is shone by the lights of the city and its silence is covered by the bustle of the city at night.
“As long as I am here, the sky is only black, unlike in the dream world.” Rara said while looking up at the sky.
“Did you miss him? Negri dream it?” Ask dirga.
“I miss him so much, just like this moment, but I am more afraid to continue to miss moments like this.”
“Means?”
“So keep thinking and longing for the past moments, I'd rather continue to create new moments with you, continue until later.”
Dirga then stood up from the chair, extending her hand at Rara.
“Come, there's something I want to show you.” Dirga.
Rara received a grip of her hand and they walked towards a small path among the grass, they continued to walk down the path that was getting deeper into the forest
After a while of walking in the forest, they arrived at a large pond, a pond with a lotus and also hundreds of flying fireflies dancing on it.
As Rara was being enchanted by the beauty of the hundreds of glowing fireflies, Dirga knelt before her and extended her hand again.
“Rara will you dance with me among thousands of merry fireflies?” Call dirga.
Rara receives a helping hand and instantly, in her mind the two are twisted back in memory years ago as they dance together among the fireflies in the land of dreams.
Now time has passed between the two, and now they are no longer in the dream world, but the taste in them has not changed one bit.
A feeling that only arises when together with each other, the feeling of love and happiness flows between them like a rushing stream.
The two danced carefully and in rhythm, amazed to see Rara who could continue to follow him and Rara continued to enjoy their moments together.
Until finally the dance reaches the end, dirga grasps rara and the two look at each other with faces that are also close together, dirga moves by itself as if there is something that encourages it as well as rara.
But when their lips will touch a crack appears in the sky, put it down from the sky to hit the earth creating a powerful vibration.
