The Birth Of The Angel
Outlandish

After that incident Aster continued to live his days as usual. But he doesn't look excited about the day. The fact that Aster knows is all about Eros and himself no longer exists. No one remembers them close, no photos of their togetherness. Even his belongings that were previously in Eros' house returned to his own house. It was as if time continued to move forward whereas only Aster lived in the past.

Sometimes Aster tries to be sincere and consider this is indeed the destiny of Eros and Ivory. But on the other hand his heart that was completely about Eros felt unwilling.

Asters often cross paths on the road with Eros. But he never looked at her in the slightest. Just for Ivory that warm and loving gaze. The thing he once owned was owned by someone else.

They became strangers, as if they had never known. And that fact is very difficult to accept Aster. Eros forgot about it, is the thing that Aster always feared right. That hurt her so much.

Eros and Ivory's relationship is also getting closer, Aster heard they will make an engagement in the near future. Aster always asks if he should retreat or snatch his love again? Does she have to see Eros happy with another woman? What if Aster tries to make Eros remember he'll understand?

Demi is close to Eros Aster receiving Leon and she is now close to Leon. He accepts Leon to get to know Eros and occasionally meets Eros. Because Leon often invites Eros to double date. Although it hurts to see Eros with other women, Aster ignores her. To now be able to see Eros in any way Aster would do.

Like today Leon invites Aster to dinner, and he will also invite Eros and his partner. Like double date.

At night, Leon picks up Aster for dinner. As usual Aster just smiled and did not say much, but Leon never asked about his attitude.

They arrived at the restaurant they had ordered. Aster remembered that this was his favorite restaurant. He wondered what this Eros chose? Does he remember her?

They had a quiet dinner and the two friends were a little joking around in the middle of their dinner.

"Well, the food here is so good, I didn't know there was such a good restaurant. How did you find out?" ask Leon to Eros.

"I don't know I just suddenly remembered this restaurant" Eros said. He also did not know why choose this restaurant, because its position is not in the city center. Only the people in the area know about this restaurant.

Aster instantly could not hold back his tears, his heart was already very sore looking at Eros who was just staring at Ivory without even a single glance at him. He added today who said he only remembered this restaurant. Why does he remember the restaurant? But why can't he remember Aster?

Aster got up from his seat and shouted at Eros while pointing, "You promised to always remember me. But why did you forget me so easily?!" aster said and left the place while hiding his tears. After Leon who chased him from behind.

Eros heard Aster's words immediately speech speech silent, Aster who he knew was a girl who did not talk much he was like a doll who only knew how to smile. But the girl was now crying and yelling at him. It annoys Eros' head, she tries to remember what she's had a relationship with before. But the more Eros tried to remember it made his headache recur.

***

Eros begins to forget Aster's talk the other day, he chooses to live his days as usual. Today is her graduation day, after this she will soon be engaged to Ivory and marry the person she loves.

After graduation they continued to eat together, when there was a chance Eros asked about Leon's condition that seemed not excited but tried to keep smiling. Eros hates fake smiles.

After many times in persuasion finally Leon want to tell the story, "I broke up with Aster. After saying break up she went missing and cut off all contact with me. Even he didn't go to college for a week for no apparent reason" Leon said in a sad tone.

Eros patted Leon's back encouragingly, "If he were your destiny he would never leave. Don't worry and learn to mengikhlaskan," said Eros.

Leon let out his breath in a huff, Eros was right. From the beginning Leon and Aster were dating only he was happy. Aster's face always looks sad and not eager to live. I don't know what bothered her, she seemed to miss someone but that person went too far.

Leon who seemed aware of something nudged Eros slowly, "Have you ever secretly been in a relationship with him?" said Leon.

Eros who was drinking water coughed, "Who? your lover? I never even knew there was a human named Aster living in this world," Eros said simply because he really felt he had no relationship with Aster.

"Then why? Every time he looks at you, that look is hard to understand. Ah, I was recording while we were eating together" Leon pulled out his phone in his pocket and showed it as they were double-dating. It was vidio before, when Aster hadn't snapped at Eros. That was their first double date.

Eros watched closely, then Leon pressed the pause button when he found something he was looking for. Leon stops the vidio as Aster gasps at Eros with a glare? I don't know.

"Look at her face looking sad but she smiled thinly as if she was happy to see you. He looks like he misses you, like an old, unfinished love" Leon said. He did understand about facial expressions because he was studying the science of physiognomy to increase his productivity.

Eros who heard Leon's words felt unconcerned, although Leon could be said to understand things about reading facial expressions but on the other hand he never remembered or just knew a person named Aster. His face was foreign to him.

"Why if there's no connection with Aster did he get to that? Do you have a twin? Then your twin makes him hurt and sees your twin inside of you" Leon said.

Eros hit Leon on the head and he grimaced in pain, "Don't talk weird or I'll sew your mouth, '" Eros said.

Leon then gives two peaceful fingers so that Eros is not upset with him anymore. Ivory called Eros and Leon to eat because they were ready. They run like children and push each other like if anyone loses then all that food will run out.

Ivory smiled as did the parents who saw her son's behavior. The child he has cared for since the baby has grown up. And the other one's getting married soon. They eat quietly but occasionally joke and laugh. Leon smiled he was thankful that Eros was happy.
