7 Days With Althara

Knowing Laluna

Tomorrow morning I woke up with a light that blinded my eyes. It made me blink my eyes and see the light from between the curtains shining on my face.

I looked around me remembering all the last night's violent quarrel with Althara in her room and fell asleep after everything was over. I felt Althara's hands curling around my body. I glanced at her behind me. His eyes are still closed.

I looked at her face that I had longed for. His sharp nose, his beautiful lips, his oval face shape and white skin make me smile to see the change of face Althara who has changed a lot and is very handsome.

Last night Althara asked me to change my clothes with her long-sleeved white T-shirt. So big was that shirt when I wore it that my hands were invisible because they were so long were Althara's sleeves, and even the short boxer pants that Althara lent him to be invisible because of the size of this shirt, I was seen wearing a big shirt without pants. But last night she said that I was pretty wearing any outfit. Those words were always said first when I asked for an opinion with the clothes I was wearing when I was going to go with him.

I slowly tried to raise Althara's hand from my body. But she instead tightly wrapped her hands back on my body. He even glued his body to me.

Her breath was so felt on my neck. I smiled seeing him like that.

“I have to wake up Al, it's already noon”

He didn't bully her.

“Althara I have to go”

“You promised you wouldn't go again Al”

I chuckled at his words with his eyes still closed.

“I go to work, not go like you” my ledek. Then glanced back at him who had opened his eyes and looked at me cynically.

I turned my body around, and looked at him so closely.

“I have to go first” I said.

“I still want it like this”

I miss her deep gaze like this. A look full of love and sincerity.

“But I have to work” he hugged me back not letting me to get up. And keep staring at me taking off her longing.

“You have no event today?” My toot.

“I can cancel all my events to be like this same you”

I smiled when I heard her and she kissed me again in her arms.

“Althara Alhena let's wake up breakfast first!”

The sound of knocking on the door along with the female voice made me release my lips from Althara's lips.

“That's Mother?” Ask me.

Althara nodded her head coldly.

I got out of bed and panicked to look for my things.

“Why you?” Althara asked confusedly.

“There's Mother Al, I'm afraid to meet Bunda”

“Why be afraid? You made the same mistake Mother?” Ask her who got out of her bed.

Then I fell silent thinking about his question.

“Yes well, why should I be afraid? Who has made you wrong, why am I panicking”

Althara smiled looking at me who was still insinuating her.

“Shortly! Why do you know I'm here?” Ask me by frowning my two halis.

Althara put her hand on my body again.

“Night I say goodbye to Mommy to pick you up, Mommy knows you are here”

I looked at him in disbelief.

I was upset with him.

“I'm ashamed to meet Bunda”

“But Mommy wants to see you”

“Moment to see you?” Ask me to doubt.

“Iya, all this time also Mother knows I still can not escape you”

“Oyah?”

“Yes. And give me..” she brought her face closer but I quickly smothered her mouth.

“No Althara”

He looks pissed.

“We have to go down,Mother is already waiting”

“Mother can wait a little while longer”

“Ngga Althara!”

It seems he is giving up breath.

“Alright” said her and released her hug.

I cleaned up my stuff and was looking for something.

“Which clothes am I?” Ask me when I'm looking for my mini dress that I wore last night.

“I threw away her cold” while going to the bathroom.

I followed her and stayed in the bathroom doorway.

“Delivered?!” Ask me not to believe.

“I don't like to see you wear clothes that come out”

“Iya but kan.”

“Why? You still want to go to a place like that with that outfit?” Cut it with a ketus.

“That new shirt I bought” I pouted considering that shirt I just wore once last night.

“I can buy you a nicer and better shirt than that”.

I was still sitting in the doorway with a frown watching her wash her face in the washbasin.

“Kalo until I see there are still many clothes like that in your closet, I will waste everything” he is still raving in there.

“Yah jangaannn” my whining.

“I will not wear clothes like that again promise, let the clothes be made display aja in the closet I” panic I remember all skimpy clothes are so funny and nice even though I rarely wear them.

“Ngga!” Say it with annoyance while brushing her teeth.

I let my breath surrender. Because it won't be able to win arguing with her like this.

Althara never changed. Still able to be firm and determined to respond to me. Even though we had a great quarrel last night, not changing his attitude to keep being sweet to me, he was still being firm and cold. But I'm happy because the Althara I know has never changed.

Althara and I finished washing their faces and brushing their teeth in the bathroom.

Althara opened her wardrobe again and gave me her plain pajama pants which were also white.

I glanced at the Althara boxer I was still wearing. It is true, how can I meet Mother like this.

I immediately replaced those shorts with those huge Althara pajamas. When Althata came out a little laugh to see me for wearing oversized clothes and pants.

“Why?” Ask me while frowning me.

“Kok impression so rich latest model clothes yes in your pack ?”

I took a glance at the clothes I was wearing, yes this was like an oversize dress of a fashionable woman.

“Ya let's go down” invite Althara to pull my hand but I immediately hold it.

“Wait forward to”

“Why?”

I thought of something how Mother's first impression would see me again later.

“I'm shy”

Althara took her breath and exhaled quickly.

“It’s Ok. Mom is waiting for you Al”

I was still ashamed to meet Mother, but I also could not be disrespectful by continuing to remain silent in Althara's room.

When I came down from the stairs I saw Mommy with straight shoulder-length hair, slim body and relaxed clothes. Mother still looks beautiful and youthful, she sits at the end of the dining table in the shape of a rectangle. Suddenly my eyes base to see Mother in front of my eyes, I finally can meet Mother again. Then my gaze was turned to the figure of a little boy sitting on his left who was eating breakfast. I frowned when I saw that there was a child in her house.

Althara smiled looking at me who was confused.

“Ayok” invite her to hold my hand.

“Hay Alhenaa” greet Mother happily while standing up to welcome me by opening her hands ready to hug me.

I approached Mother and immediately hugged her.

“Hay Bundaa”

We hugged long enough with Mother who rubbed my back gently.

“Bunda kangen very same you Al” said.

“I also miss Bunda”

Then Mother let go of her embrace.

“You are already big Al, you are mature and more beautiful like this”

I continued to hold both of Mother's hands while continuing to stare at her letting go of my miss.

“Iya Mother. Mother how are you?” Ask me to hold my haru.

“Bunda good darling, you how are you?”

“I'm also good Bunda”

“Udah how long have we not met?” Ask Mommy to smile sweetly at me.

I shook my head not sure exactly how long.

“6 years Bunda”

“Waw 6 years ?” Ask Mommy did not expect the time to pass so quickly.

We nod our heads together while continuing to stare and smile.

“Maafin Althara yes, he is very evil with you” said Mommy while glancing at Althara who was sitting on her right right right next to me.

“Iya Mommy, she is already evil so much” said I follow staring at her cynically.

“Padahan from the first Mother has said, kalo Alhena still love the same you try samperin Alhena and try to explain all of it, let Alhena understand. But he never wanted to cry Bunda”

“Oyah? Her head is never said ya”

Althara looked at me sharply.

“Udah used to mojokin me her, now we breakfast” her words make me and Mommy laugh.

I glanced at the little girl who was on the left side of Mother. She looks cute with pink clothes, bangs hair and wears a pink bando on her head.

“This?” I asked while looking at that beautiful little girl.

He smiled at me.

“Oh yes knowin” said Mommy asked me to turn around and approach the little girl.

“Come acquaintance with Kak Alhena used” pinta Bunda.

“Hallo I'm Laluna I'm 4 years” plain little boy is so cute while continuing to smile.

“This is Althara's sister?” I don't believe it while smiling.

Mother smiled at me.

“Hallo Laluna,Kak Alhena” said I pinched his little cheek.

“Laluna knows, sister's face will be in Kak Althara”'s room

I remember the big painting in Althara's room. Smiling at his funny behavior.

“Laluna really pinter sih”

“Iya said Kak Althara Laluna should pinter if not later kak Althara go again”

“Oyah?” I glanced at Althara who was rubbing jam on her bread.

Her face beamed in series hearing my conversation with her sister.

“Kak Althara will not go again really, he is here for laluna” nemenin said I calm her by tidying her straight hair.

“But Brother Althara likes to be angry with Laluna if Laluna eats chocolate” the little boy continues to make me smile at his funny behavior.

“Ya already Brother left again aja ya” said Althara menjahili his little sister is.

Laluna's face turned moody and almost cried hearing Althara pricking her.

“Bundaa” whine Laluna complained to her Mother.

“Altharaa!!” Mommy warns.

“Al” I join his glare that has made his own sister sad.

“Iya yes” then Althara saved her bread first and looked at Laluna who was almost crying

“Sister Althara will not go again, Brother here laluna continues until Laluna big”

“Big Brother Alhena?” Her questions began to improve.

“Iyah” replied Althara with a sweet smile.

“Yeeaayyy Kak Althara ga go again” Laluna raised both her hands so happy.

I smiled looking at her and glanced at Althara who was also looking at me with a smile.
