A Cold Frozen Hearts
Eps. 20 In the middle of the forest
Nayla awakens when it gets dark, she is so shocked that she wakes up Raysa who is still asleep.
“Raysa wake...”
“A minute...”
Maidservant!
Nayla hits Raysa.
“Wake up, have a look. We were here last night,” Nayla said as she hit the man. “How do we go home, if we stay here,”
“We stay here overnight,”
“They must be worried about us,”
“Actually, they've returned to Kam. Looks like they've arrived anyway,” said Raysa.
“You really pissed me off,” said Nayla while tidying up her stuff.
Raysa tried to calm the girl who was angry with him.
“Sit well here,” Raysa said as she led the girl to a seat. “Wait for me here, I'll find firewood near here. We'll camp here, if we go home now, we can get lost. So wait here for me, no matter what happens, don't go anywhere. Remember, just scream if something happens, don't panic. Okay,” said Raysa while putting a jacket on the girl, as if she didn't want the girl to get cold.
The stars in the night sky look so beautiful in the eyes. Nayla suddenly recalled when she was just alone without someone beside her. Make her, miss someone who accompanies her days.
He makes fire, with branches around him. He checked the backpack he was wearing, looking for snacks that he used to keep in his bag.
Suddenly, she cried out what she thought to make her cry.
“Have I left you here too long?”
Instantly Nayla stopped crying, and wiped her tears.
“I'm still catching fish and jungle chickens near here, so it's a bit long. I didn't know you were afraid of living alone,”
“My pregnancy is exhausted, and I am hungry,” said Nayla in her innocent tone.
Oh God! Not because of fear, but because the Snack was done making him cry.
“Here, I caught a lot of fish and chicken. Which you want to eat first,”
“Ayam,”
While Nayla enjoys grilled chicken and waits for fresh water fish to be burned, Raysa sets up a tent for them to live in.
“Can I eat it all?” nayla asked while pointing at the fish that was being burned when she had just finished her chicken portion.
“You can finish it all?”
Nayla just nodded her head slowly, as if to say that she was really hungry.
“Hey, eat it slowly,” Raysa said as she approached Nayla. “Do you eat like this? Like a child,”
Raysa crouched down in front of the girl who was enjoying the grilled fish, then took the initiative to clean up the leftovers on the lip of the girl, then ate them. Hm. Romantic, but dear only Raysa whose heart is beating.
When a Raysa man's desire is tested by the girl in front of him. Nayla's tiny lips that were enjoying the fish tempted her. Slowly, Raysa approached the girl's face.
The cup!
Nayla feeds the fish she is eating into Raysa's mouth, making Raysa only look at the girl's face with embarrassment.
“You can take fish there, why would you want to eat mine,” grumbled Nayla.
“Be aware of Raysa, what are you doing anyway. Why would you want to kiss her, you stupidly humiliate yourself,” muttered Raysa deeply.
The night wind blew, bringing a chill. Nayla was sitting while looking at the meadow that she saw this afternoon.
“You don't want to know who your biological family is?”
“No, in my memory they sent me off,” said Nayla. “Better as current,”
“Have you ever been kidnapped?”
“No,”
“You heard one story?”
“What story?”
“Originally a star,”
“A fairy becomes a Star,” says Raysa started her story.
“A long time ago when fairies lived on earth and the number of humans was still small, on the trunk of a leafy oak tree shady in the wilderness, there lived a fairy who always durja. Every day she just cries. His eyes were swollen and his face was gloomy. When night fell, his cries were heard all over the forest until the tree trees and animals were awake from their sleep. When noon comes, long daydreams seem to be thinking about a very heavy thing,”
“Because the cry of the fairy never subsided and made all the inhabitants of the forest disturbed, came the wind to her. The wind asked why he was so sad ? the fairy rose from her backrest, flicked her little wings and then alighted and sat by clutching her knees on the back of the wind.
“My friend has left. They've moved north to find a new home by leaving me,”
“Why did your friend leave you?” ask wind. The fairy was silent.
“Why?” wind insistence.
“Because I am ugly” replied while turning his face away.
He then showed a large lump on his right cheek until because of the lump his face looks pockmarked next door. The lump has been there since he was born. On the entire surface of his face there are many red spots that if one spot is broken, then the smell of unpleasant odor throughout the place where he is. With such physical condition, the other elf mocked her as the goblin who had a likeness, the scary ogr, or the ugly dwarf.
The fairy took the wind down the tree, then they flew towards the lake. Once there was a moon whose face was reflected above the surface of the water.
The fairy said, “If you want to know my wish, I want to be beautiful and shine like her, so will inevitably disappear my grief” she replied.
The wind shook his head, “Takay” he said inwardly.
The moon is so great, it adorns the night as the sun becomes the jewel of the day. Every creature may dream to have its beauty but it is impossible to get it. To dream of having the beauty of the moon is a waste.
The fairy looked at the wind and said, “I'll ask the moon to share her beauty with me, I'll see her now,”
He flew into the sky, but as soon as he reached the cloud, he bounced to the earth, his wings were too small and his breath was exhausted before he could meet the moon. Again and again he tried the same thing but again bounced. The elf came to the wind, and asked the wind to take her. The wind shook his head, he said Travel from the earth to the moon is very far, no creature can get there including himself.
The fairy's face grew grim. Sadness looms over him. He stared again at the shadow of the moon on the lake, long and deep.When he was fascinated by the beauty of the moon, his head became heavy, his vision blurred and finally he collapsed unconscious.
At the moment of awakening, the fairy's sight was still blurred. But in a vision that was not yet clear, he saw a bright golden shadow around him. He was surprised to learn that the moon came down to meet him. When the fairy was about to say something, the moon first cut by first saying “I already know what you want,”
The fairy's face turned cheerful. He nodded. The moon stretched out her hand and held the fairy in her chest. The word moon, whether beautiful is the main requirement to be able to love and be loved. Is being beautiful really fun? The fairy frowned.
The moon again said with a secret, if the beauty the fairy wanted was a mortality because one day she would fade. That is the ridiculous physical beauty of having made men draw swords, kill and destroy each other. He who is beautiful body alone is a fire that burns men to fight for each other even though it is very hot he is grasped and makes women compete to extinguish it so that nothing is more beautiful than him. The history of physical beauty is a history of bloodshed, malice, arrogance and deceit.
“Can I not be beautiful” asked the fairy.
The moon smiled, he said. More than beautiful it should also be useful for humans, animals, plants and tree trees. Because when a beautiful woman demands that she be loved, useful women share and give, that is the essence of life. The elf stared at the graceful face of the moon. He asks what should he do to be beautiful and useful? the moon answered him with a smile.
Then the Moon carried the sky fairy flying with a faithful wind waiting on earth. As soon as he reached the center of the solar system, he placed the fairy in his hand. The moon told the fairy to close her eyes. With a magical gust that shot out a silver ray from her mouth, the elf's body became warm from being enveloped in that ray. It trembled, shook, stretched and within seconds its form had turned into a star that shone extremely brightly. It was the first star born in the history of the solar system.
The happy fairy, she danced nari, sang, laughed because she became beautiful. He was very grateful for his change. The moon again said, Now I will show you how to be more useful to other beings. From now on, look at the lost creatures on earth with your light. Take those who cannot find their homes, show the sampan fishermen who have lost their way, tell the confused travelers to determine the route of their journey. Be a guide to anyone in need.
From that moment on the fairy lived in the sky. He wanders in search of lost creatures on the way and then with his light shows them the right direction until they reach their destination. One day he saw a group of exhausted fairies in an arid desert. When they realized they were friends of his lost friends, winked and pointed southeast. Fairy fairy was shocked, because in the sky there was a speck of bright light that was very beautiful. At the hint of the light they flew back.
Before long they laid out a large flower garden. The fairy elf cheered after successfully finding a new home. None of them knew that the star was one of them. They can only be amazed, amazed and hope to have a beauty like the star.
No one knows this secret except the wind, which always sees the shadow of the star which is now sitting with the moon on the surface of the lake
“Completed... Such is the story of Peri who became the star I read on the Internet,” said Raysa.
Unfortunately, the girl beside him had been asleep since earlier.
“Hm. He's asleep,” Raysa said. “He was really not afraid if suddenly I did something bad to him,” Raysa held Nayla inside the Tent.
“Is he at least as alert as this?”
Raysa observed the figure of the girl, as if never tired of looking at the little girl.
