The Eternal Fragments of Moonlight
Chapter 18: Weighing Anchor (Part I)
Oh I have not had time to explain about the name of the family or clan that is in our anyway. On Lembari Island there are at least eleven known clans. However, since the islanders are now very pluralized by immigrants, not everyone here has a clan. After all, not everyone is born noble enough to get a clan. Like me, Mira and Dian for example.
Of the eleven clans that exist there are only four main clans namely; Nagata, Gantari, Prawira and the highest social status as the guardian court of Nitehake Temple, Abiseka.
Nagata is famous for their expertise in making cultural crafts as well as architects. While Prawira is currently famous for their rapidly growing hospitality business on the south coast. That's right, Prawira is Alan's family. Lingga Prawira, his father Alan is the largest shareholder of the many hotels in Lembari Island.
Next up is Gantari. They are famous for their women who are ayu and big breasts... Ba, well that's all I'm just kidding. But that's the truth! In writing they are famous for their tradition of maintaining traditional culinary recipes of Lembari Island. But if you ask anyone about them, yes the first answer is what you will get. Perhaps it was thanks to the efficacy they gained from keeping traditional herbal recipes. I don't know.
Right now, right in front of me stands a Gantari woman whose full name is Mustika Arum Gantari. The students usually call her Bu Mustika or Bu Tika. She is 29, single, and is very good at physics. Height 172cm, 1 centimeter higher than my body first. Size BWH, 94-64-92.
Oh, how do I know all that? Of course because in the past, long before all about this time travel began, I had joined the “Fans Club Queen Mustika”, which was chaired by a student named Ronny Agung Gantari.
"Ta, aunt meant aunt..." Said Ronny stammered.
"Aunty, aunt. Mama!"
"Oh yes Mother!” Ronny grimacing. “Ma, what does Bu Mustika mean? I don't understand."
Yap Ronny is a distant niece of Miss Mustika. Strange indeed, I also did not think how could a physicist have a nephew of the Boy just a fool very it.
"Ck." Miss Mustika clucked wryly. "Ronny, you think you can't see your half-transparent naked friend? Huh?!"
I immediately folded both hands under my stomach.
"Udah should not be covered. People don't look too good either."
"Oh yasudah." I also released my hand.
Hearing me speak to him, Miss Mustika met a sinister face that I had never seen from him while a student here. Then he pulled Ronny behind him.
"What do you want from this boy?" Ask Miss Mustika. "You know, we're different in nature. It's nice if you approach us, and vice versa. So you better not come to my bangs again!"
"Tu, wait aunty. Let Ronny clear..."
"Or if you keep ngeyel," continued Miss Mustika. "Don't bring you to Ki Romo Adji Gantari."
Ki Romo Adji Gantari's. He was the highest elder in the Gantari family. Hearing Miss Mustika call it, I understood. I can guess that besides what I have mentioned, the Gantari family also has another uniqueness.
They seem to have a high level of sensitivity to invisible creatures and they seem to be used to dealing with it.
Agh unfortunately Ronny has never told me about this before. If only he had told me first. I will not be silent all this time watching Laras continue to repeat the timeline even up to three times. From the beginning I found my body separated from my soul, I would go straight to Ronny for help from him.
"What a coincidence, yeah." My word. "My name is also Aji, you know."
I saw Miss Mustika squinting.
“Maybe you don't know who I am because I'm an IPA teacher. While I am a child of IPS.” My next. “Include my name Rizky Triaji, I met his classmate Ronny.”
“If you do not believe, please just check the list of students in class XII Social 3. My mom will definitely meet my name there.”
Miss Mustika raised her face and started looking at me with both nostrils. Then without speaking a word, he took out a cell phone from inside Jas pocket. Tapping on the screen of his phone, he said.
“Be careful if you lie!”
I'm guessing at the moment Miss Mustika must be checking the list of students through her account on the school's website. Every teacher has access to personal data of students.
Just a matter of seconds, I saw him frowning. I'm sure he's already found my name on the class XII Social 3 student list. Then, after one more tap on the screen of his phone, he was also touched back. Now he has kept his phone as far away from his face as possible. He looks very surprised.
“Bu?” Said Ronny while peeking at what Bu Mustika really saw.
“Anjir!”
Ronny immediately smothered his own mouth after swearing. Miss Mustika had turned her head towards him to scold, but it did not. It seems that at the moment Miss Mustika has no time for that.
“This! What is this?!” Ask Miss Mustika while pointing her phone at me. “Explain!”
I saw the screen of Miss Mustika's phone distorted. Percis was like Mira's phone when she got a strange message some time ago. But this time the projection is much more tangled than the screen of Mira's phone. Even a few times the screen was to life dead.
“Hmm the explanation...” I smile. “Will be very long.”
“There's a come!” My word. “Ron, get into the Lab now! Hide!”
Ronny was confused. But after I snapped.
“Now Ron!”
He entered the Physics Lab and closed the door from the inside.
The person who came by had now set foot on the 3rd floor. I know who he is. I know his footsteps very well. Because I've been around him a lot lately. After a few steps, she finally arrived near me and Miss Mustika.
“Oh, good afternoon Bu Mustika.” He's a little strangled for finding Miss Mustika.
“Happy day.” Answer Miss Mustika. Right now I see his phone is dead.
“Mm, sorry Bu.” He said while looking around as if looking for something. “Did Mom see the tall students who passed by here?”
Silent.
“Hmm she has a standing hairstyle. Like this.” Add it while putting both palms together on the head.
“Oh.” Mrs Mustika looked uneasy not knowing what to answer.
“Jawab only no.” My word.
Miss Mustika is still nervous. He looked at me in surprise with his lips slightly shaking. It made me pat the teardrop.
“Come to Oppai! Why should I buy it first! He'll be suspicious!”
“Ti, no.” Finally, Miss Mustika replied. “Mother absolutely did not see any student who came here.”
“Oh well then I say goodbye. Sorry Mom, it's been annoying.” He slightly lowered his head and turned around and walked back up the stairs.
“Wait.” Mustika stopped him. “If I may know, what is your name?”
He turned back to look at Miss Mustika. Then, putting his hands in front of his chest, he said.
“My name is Alan. I am a student of class XII Social 3.”
"Oh well then. Alan."
My gaze continued to follow Alan who was now walking away until finally he was not seen again. So it's not just Laras who's hunting Ronny now, but Alan too?
Not long after, I heard the door of the Physics Lab open and Ronny came out in a daze.
“Udah safe right?”
I answered with a nod.
“Woh, it's just Alan anyway. That's why I'm hiding too.”
“Why,” my word. “Lo think you don't need to hide if the one who came earlier was him?”
“Huh? Yes yes dong, anyways just Alan doang. I thought it was Laras that came with.”
“Ron, he came all the way to the third floor here for your ngariin! He must have been suspicious because Elo shouted my name in the class earlier!” I snapped a little.
“Mm yes ngak nothing, anyways I can trust the same Alan. So if he'd known the truth, too.”.
At that time I did not know how Ronny saw my shape. But what I saw was that he became a delinquent and immediately he apologized.
"So, sorry Ji, I don't mean..."
"Ronny, here!" Mustika's mom pulled him straight behind her body. He spread his hands as if afraid that I would pounce on Ronny right then and there. I see the face of Miss Mustika as wide as Ronny's.
I don't know what they really see from me. But I can feel it. That there was a change that happened to me. And it was thanks to Ronny saying that he could easily trust Alan.
Ah I... no need to explain to you anymore, right? About how I really felt about Alan. I mean he's the one who was outlined to be with Mira. I wasn't. I don't really hate Alan. Not at all. I just wish he never was created. Absolutely!
