A Light Fountain

Been Gone

**

Two weeks later..

"Hey.." Jasmine patted Assena's shoulder.

"Jeez you're just surprised" Assena grumbled.

"You're why you daydream, since I spoke you didn't listen to it." Jasmine stared at the wonder of her best friend.

"No, I'm not daydreaming." Bahtah Assena's. His eyes were straight ahead, watching the group of people he knew. He was watching Alvin with his parents Jemmy and Iretta, also seen Arkan and Evelin who gathered to greet each other.

But he did not see the man he was looking for.

"What do you see?" jasmine asked as she followed Assena's gaze. "That's Alvin with his parents, they're very familiar with your parents." He said when he caught a group of people who were being noticed by Assena.

But Assena didn't listen to what Jasmine said.

"I thought today you would come." Assena muttered in the heart. I don't know why his gaze became sad when he didn't find the person he was looking for.

Today is graduation day, all students are present with their parents. Arkan and Evelin attend to witness Assena's graduation.

Where today the students have graduated, a sign of the end of the study period at this school.

Where is the farewell time between teacher and student, also friends between friends.

There are so many views of hugging each other friends with so much fun. This is a farewell for those who must be separated to continue their education.

Since spending the day with Petter two weeks ago, after that day Petter has really been out of sight. Never went to school again, not even on graduation day did Petter come. It was as if this was evidence from Petter's words that day, that he was going to leave.

Assena had hoped that maybe Petter's graduation day would come, but in fact it was not.

Where's Petter? that's the question Assena has not answered to date. Even at school no one knows, only word of mouth among students that a bad boy like Petter may be wanting to skip school.

During Petter's disappearance, Assena senses something is missing. And somehow his heart ached as he never got word from Petter, someone who had developed a strange, new taste of Assena.

The man had left, after expressing his feelings, after saying that Assena was his first love, after saying the promise that he would return, after making Assena feel how it felt when his lips came into contact with Petter's lips, after giving the feeling that Assena first felt, after everything that had been passed together. And he's really gone.

Yeah, he's gone now.

Assena wanted to ask Alvin, but for two weeks Alvin did not go to school.

Assena was astonished at what happened between Petter and Alvin, who had been missing for two weeks. To this day only Alvin is seen present but not with Petter.

Assena was determined today that she would ask Alvin.

When Alvin was seen leaving his parents who were chatting with the parents of Assena.

"Where are you going?" jasmine's voice sounded.

"I'll go to the toilet for a while" Assena said without turning her head and continued to walk quickly.

Alvin walked to the toilet, when he was about to reach the toilet door handle.

"Wait!" That voice, a voice he knew, made him turn his head.

Alvin smiled when he found out that in front of him was Assena.

"Assena, what's wrong?" he smiled kindly by taking two steps forward to get closer.

"Where's Petter?"

As Alvin's smile fades, he is so dislikeful that Assena meets him only to ask Petter. Reality is so disappointing for him, as he grows the hope that Assena will meet him without concerning Petter.

"Is that all you want to say?" alvin said with his flat face.

"Why indeed? I haven't seen him in two weeks. Where's she? you know that, don't you?" that's the word Assena said.

Alvin snorted, "Even you counted the time for how long you didn't see it. I wonder what connection you have? until you bother to ask her whereabouts. You're a lot different than usual when it comes to Petter." Alvin's stoning gaze took a look at every expression of the girl in front of him.

Assena was instantly stunned, as if awakened. Is it true that he was already willing to bother looking for Petter's whereabouts.

What exactly makes him so forced himself to just find out about Petter.

"It's none of your business, I just want to know where he is?".

"Unfortunately if I tell you, you won't be able to see her again."

"What do you mean talk like that?".

"He's gone far, my father and mother have sent the bad boy abroad. He'll continue his studies there." Alvin said with a cynical smile. "Now you know, don't you?" move again, then turn around and go to the toilet.

Assena's sculpting, "Outside the country?" he said without a sound. It felt like he was so limp, wanting to collapse when he knew the truth. The truth he's been looking for all this time, which in fact is so shocking. There was a pain in his heart, as soon as he held onto his chest and gripped his shirt firmly.

While inside the thiolet, right behind the door. Alvin leaned against the toilet wall. His eyes closed, occasionally taking a breath that felt so heavy.

"Why? why should Petter be the one you're asking. I took so much effort to keep her away from you, but I didn't make you forget her". Lirih Alvin, it feels so frustrating to face this reality, a reality that does not take sides with him.

He ruffled his hair violently, then fell silent afterwards.

"Maybe it takes time. Yeah, it's just a matter of time to make him forget about Petter. After that he'll be mine." Repeat again with a smile.
