↳ Day Vestival #1
The sound of heavy rain crashing into the area around his house and William woke up from his dream, he just looked around him that looked dark and only a small light that illuminated his room. He then took his phone and saw what time he woke up, he woke up at two in the morning. Because it was too early to get up and still feeling tired, he finally decided to get out of his room to go to the kitchen to get some drinking water first before going back to sleep.
“.. Rain, I don't see the weather forecast.. Good luck home good only.”
“Better I sleep again.”
After drinking William back to his room and immediately put his body on the mattress, he lifted his blanket and continued his sleep again. Although heavy rain outside but he decided to sleep whatever happened because tomorrow his body must be ready to move, over time he fell asleep by himself and woke up in the morning by the alarm of his cellphone.
William woke up again and now by the alarm of his cell phone, he opened his eyes and just stood beside his bed. However, having just woken up, he could not walk freely and had to wait until his body could move, after waiting for a while he could only walk calmly to his bathroom.
He washed his face and brushed his teeth, after which he returned to his room to pick up his phone and take it to the front room. William sat on his couch and turned on his television, after which he got up and walked towards the door of his house. He looked out the window and the day was bright without any cloudiness or drizzle.
“Maybe because it rained last night.. Good then, I'm not hard to get there.”
“Wait, do I have to work half a day in the morning or have a day off? I told my uncle that I took my leave, didn't I?”
Confused by his choice, William decided to sit in his chair and wait for the hour of the morning. Unknowingly he began to fall back asleep on his couch and suddenly his phone rang wake him up, just turn off his phone and see the message he received.
“Who.. Oh Melody, what's up?”
“That William.. What time are you on campus?”
“Because it should be with Nia, maybe late afternoon until night.”
“Then you can go there, mom also come.”
“Four hours I'll be there, so you wait that hour and help your mother.”.
“Good.”
After that William saw another message that entered his phone, there were several messages including from Candy that he ignored last night. Because he was bored he continued to sleep in the morning, still at six in the morning and the atmosphere of the hour made him comfortable to sleep again. An hour passed and he woke up from his sleep, because it was too late he started doing activities in the morning.
Some things he did such as making breakfast, sports or cleaning his house. Not to forget also he every day took the time to wash his clothes and dry them outside the house, William was eager to buy a dryer for clothes in the future. After that he came out of the house to see the flowers, already looked blooming and can be picked.
He wanted to take the flowers to his parents' funeral. He wants to go there today after his daily activities are over, because he already sweats he wants to take a shower first.
After picking a taxi his order came and stopped in front of his house, he just got into the car.
Not long after the taxi driver was running his car, they set off for a public funeral. During the trip William thought to his two parents especially his mother who liked the flowers he brought, his mother always took care of the flowers until many in his yard where he lived first.
His mother used to have a variety of plants in her yard and the most numerous are the flowers in her hands today, although all the plants can be taken care of properly.
“Then even mom wanted to plant fruit also in the yard, dad forbid because there was no place else to step foot in the yard.. But the mother still insisted and finally the father bought the land behind the house that is still empty has not been filled anything, enough to spend money to buy the land.. I am very happy and want to quickly plant flowers, but because there is a problem, I have to work a lot and clean up problems at work.. Mom and Dad left me alone.. So the land behind the house is still empty to this day, I rarely go to the old house.. Maybe when will I go there, all of you go to Cecile because it is close to home.”.
Not feeling his journey by taxi will end, William can already see the fence of the cemetery. When he arrived at the funeral gate, he paid the fare to the taxi driver and then got out of his car. He immediately went to the location of his parents buried, when he reached the cemetery to his two parents he saw someone who was silent in front of him. He just got closer to the tomb and put the flowers on top to the two graves of his parents.
“Uncle Willy did not say if you want to come here.”
“Sorry, uncle happened to pass by here.. So all you guys, I didn't know you were coming here.”
“In addition to the time I will send a message to uncle if you want to come here, I have permission if today is off.”
“You want to take Nia to your college.. Do I need uncle interracial?”
“Can.. Melody will also be coming with her mother.”.
“Then later uncle interracial.”
“Jam four.”
After a long conversation, uncle Willy told him and his parents, uncle Willy left the place. He was still there to speak a word or two to his parents and pray for them, he had time to clean the tomb to two parents even though it has been cleaned by the tomb and put flowers neatly so that his mother was happy to see it. Because the clock had shown at nine he wanted to go home and clean his yard again, he said goodbye to his parents and left the place.
“I'll be here again later, mom and dad.. To our former home too.”
William came out of the cemetery and looked around the area, but before leaving he took the money and put the money into the funeral box for the people who had taken care of the funeral. Since it was already noon he decided to call another taxi for himself to return home, he waited there while opening his phone back.
“Candy.. Looks like he's cool on campus.. For the others as well, Nixie also looked happy there.. I hope he is happy with his fiancee.. Come on William, look ahead.. You should be able to forget about someone who doesn't support you anymore.”
A car stopped in front of him and the taxi arrived, William got inside and his car drove to his house. On the way he opened his phone again and saw the message that entered his phone, not many entered because it was still morning and people were busy with their respective affairs. It did not feel like he had reached the highway of his home area, because still hungry he decided to stop in front of his mother Melody selling.
“Stop here only sir.. Thank you.”
