When I Choose Silence

When I Choose Silence
22.You Sure?


While both parents Anyelir and Kalandra are still busy chatting with the theme of their engagement and marriage, Anyelir deliberately wants to talk to Kalandra.


"Well, can we talk to you for a second?" Said Carnation with a face that still looks very awkward.


"Say, what's up?" Kalandra replied with her flat face, she really looked calm, as if nothing had happened in their past.


"I want us to talk alone." Imbuh Anyelir returned, because he was very curious, why Kalandra easily agreed to their matchmaking.


"Why? is this our secret, until our parents can't hear it?" Kalandra asked with a shady look, even with a slight smile.


"Emm.. not really, just I just want-" Carnations to be confused what to talk like, there's no way he's telling the truth in front of their parents who don't know the story of the two of them.


Both parents of Anyelir used to only know if his daughter had problems with Jenny only, not with Kalandra, as well as the two parents of Kalandra who just 'owh' ria alone when she heard the tragedy that happened at her son's school, they both did not have time to find out about who with whom, because their work was quite draining of energy and mind, because their work was quite draining, as long as it wasn't his son who was the victim, they just thought it was a regular accident.


"Kalandra, you are not sensitive at all so a man, his name is also a woman who wants to always be understood, so naturally dong if you want to talk alone, there go to the end table, the end of the table, the view is also good from that corner." Mama Kalandra immediately pinched the waist of her son who seemed not to understand the wishes of a woman who sometimes embarrassed cats.


"Not so is Auntie, hehe." Carnations can only scratch the nape that does not itch, he did not expect if Mama Kalandra was also listening to the chatter of the two of them.


"Aunty understand, Aunty is also a woman, sorry son, Kalandra is a little stiff people, but over time you guys must be suitable, okay?" Mama Kalandra also looks confident with this matchmaking, because since Kalandra has been working she has never been this attracted to a woman.


"Yes Aunty, a little bit I have known Kalandra era in School first." Answer Carnations are just pleasantries.


"Good then, have you talked there about the good old days, for soon you will be united in the beautiful world too." Ledek Mama Kalandra is back, she is so happy to see the two of them, and really hopes her son will have a happy little family forever.


"Hehe... Yes Aunt." Anyelir replied with a blushing face, he felt moved, it turned out that Nature seemed to realize his wishes in adolescence that had not been conveyed.


"Call me Mama dong too, soon you'll be a Aunt's daughter too." Mama Kalandra is back.


"Owh.. Yes Ma." Although still awkward but Anyelir was happy to call him with such a thing, because the effect must be closer again.


"Let's go there, later Mama chatnya even not so we date together."


"Dating?" Carnations even glanced at Kalandra's face with a look of wonder.


He used to be almost like a madman because he expected the word invitation to come out of Kalandra's mouth, but it seemed impossible and never happened, but why easily he said it now.


"Fuck the game, the place will be used by people." Say Kalandra that still looks cool at all times.


And Carnations could only gawk at the sight of her hand being held tightly by Kalandra, towards the very end of the table who could see the beautiful corner of the city from up there.


"Ereacher... Kala?" Anyelir tried to be brave, talking to Kalandra he thought was more scary, than arguing with the drooling Lecturer on the campus first, because talking to someone special in the heart was always careful, afraid of speaking wrongly and hurting him.


"Yes." Yeah." Kalandra replied gently, to make Carnations really fascinated by the figure of Kalandra.


"I-i want to. emmm---"


Carnations back confused should ask from which part it used to be.


My death, why can he be so cute like this? Is she Kalandra, isn't she? or just just the incarnation, how different?


"I want to apologize." Finally the word sorry is what comes to the brain of Carnation this time.


"For?" Kalandra asked even by raising the two corners of her lips while gently rubbing the fingers of Carnation's hand.


"For everything." Carnations pulled her fingers and lowered her gaze, afraid that Kalandra's gaze would suddenly turn horrible, even if it was just her shadow.


"All what? haven't we just met after all this time?" Ask Kalandra with her comfort.


"Everything that happened in our past and also about Jenny, because it used to be me-"


"Have it, it's all just past stories, everyone doesn't have a past story, nor do we?" Kalandra instantly cut through the Carnation's conversation, as if she was unwilling to discuss the old wound anymore.


"Have you forgiven me?" Tanya Anyelir who returned tried to dare to look at Kalandra's face.


"Do you have anything wrong with me?" Kalandra seems to deliberately pretend to forget everything that has happened.


"Well, didn't you used to be Jenny's boyfriend?" Carnations just want to know, how Kalandra's reaction about it.


"Owh... It's just the love of monkeys alone, the name is also still the stinking child, whose feelings are still passionate, as if forgetting that the world is vast and still too long the journey of our lives in this world." Kalandra even propped up her handsome face with both hands while continuing to look at the face of Anyelir before her.


"really?" And that makes Carnations even more anxious because of it.


"God, forget the past, let's look at our future now." As if Kalandra has also been steady with herself Carnation.


"Emm... If you may know, how is Jenny doing now?" If not for wanting to try a new relationship with Kalandra, maybe Anyelir did not want to know the news of his high school friend.


"Of course." But Kalandra's answer was only short and chose to raise both shoulders.


"Has he moved?" Carnations have not been able to guess the plot, because it has been several years and during the Carnation of college indeed he never returned to this country, always his parents who visited them there.


"Hm... Someone said the hell someone said out of the country, but I don't know which one is right."


"Have you broken up with her?" Carnations continue to dare to be treated curiosity.


"I told you, it's just monkey love, don't think too much."


And the answer from Kalandra was still the same, as if she no longer remembered the threatening words she had once thrown to Carnation after the tragedy had happened.
