A MENTARY WITHOUT EMOTION
Black
“KYAA finally finished the exam as well,” Niki said by stretching both hands.
It was our last day of the test, yes it was true the test was over and just waiting for the result. And now I wonder if I should find out about the letter.
“Niki..” call me
“Ya?”
“Have you prepared the packing later tomorrow?” my many.
“Ooh...who is it, you haven't?” Niki asked back.
“Yaa when I get home, I'll pack it.”
“Then, I will help you all play, can?” niki with a face full of hope.
For a moment I thought, maybe it's okay to take her to my house, almost every day she comes home like her second home. This is what I wanted all along.
“Sure,” my reply was accompanied by a nod.
“Good, let's go to Lucy~” home Niki exclaimed with passion. I smiled and walked home.
***
When we got in front of my house, the niki had stepped forward as if he was the host. I immediately took the house keys in my pocket.
I was wide-eyed, when I looked around me, the figure of Peter was present again near the bus stop, accompanied by the presence of other papers in my pocket.
‘I'll guide you in search of truth-peter’
Once again I stared at the black figure, he just greeted me by raising his hand which was not even visible to his skin. Black he's too black.
‘Unclear.’
‘Too dark, I can't see it.’
‘Do I need to go to him?’
“Lucy~ Lucy~”
My silence broke because niki suddenly called. I quickly opened the door with my keys.
“What's Lucy? You look weird,” asked the somewhat worried Niki.
I was too busy looking around for that black figure, unfortunately he had already disappeared quickly.
“It's okay, let's go in,” I cried with a smile. I wish Niki hadn't realized what I saw. My hair was still uplifted, I felt like someone was watching me from afar.
In my house we were busy preparing various things while joking and laughing cheerfully, even we had lunch together. Until we both forgot the time that the sky had blackened.
“Sorry Lucy, it looks like I have to go home,” said Niki who is ready to go home.
“Oh okay I'll take you to the front of the house.”
“Haha thank you, to be honest I have not gotten used to you now, but I am happy that you have changed for the better,” said Niki who is proud of me.
“Thank you too, because you've been present by my side.”
Niki suddenly laughed, “haha this is nothing Lucy, you're the one who got me by your side. I'm happy to meet you and be your friend-wait a minute, we are not friends,” said Niki who made this situation quiet.
“What?”
‘Why all of a sudden so this?’ my feelings became tense instantly, was something wrong?
Then Niki smiled and said, “We are friends.”
In that instant I felt relieved, I barely breathed a moment.
“You okay Lucy? Sorry I scared you. I'm sorry, I didn't mean that.”
Niki's pick-up has arrived, I don't know when she called her invitation, but I don't have to worry anymore if she's picked up by her personal driver. I'm just worried that if he walks alone something unwanted will happen, even more so it's already night, there must be a lot of bad people hanging around right now.
“It's okay, be careful on the road,” I said.
“OK see you Lucy,” exclaimed Niki as she waved her hand high.
“Until now,” replied to me by waving just the hand.
We parted ways, but I wanted him to stay here longer. Usually he used to stay at my house often, whether it was because he had problems with his family or just accompanied me. Never mind, he only intended to help me to pack things. Because tomorrow is tourism for the 12th class farewell.
‘I can't wait like what later.’
When the car left with niki, that's where our gazes met. The figure reappeared before me, I was shocked and scared. To be honest, seeing a ghost or monster in the real world is not my dream right now.
The figure was only illuminated by street lights. And now he's across the street.
His feet stepped onto the highway intending to cross.
I don't know why, the more he moves forward the more I step back. When he was in the middle of the street, the green light was on. The yellow car sped from the right until it hit the tall black figure.
I was shocked half to death and ran to see whether the figure was alive or not, the speeding yellow car also stopped because it felt like it had hit something.
The driver looked for the victim he hit.
“Nothing what. Strange, the feeling I hit something earlier,” The driver got back into his car and continued his journey.
I who witnessed it was just stupefied and silent on the spot. ‘How can he not exist? I clearly saw him get hit earlier.’
“HallOooo.”
“Aah.” I almost cried hysterically earlier, fortunately no one heard him, because suddenly he appeared right behind me.
I shuddered because the figure was in front of me right now, even our distance was too close that I did not dare to look him in the face.
“A-no pe-perluh what?” many nervous.
The black figure's hand suddenly reached into my jacket pocket, I could only be silent on the spot because I still did not dare with the figure, then he took out another paper and opened it like telling me to read it.
‘What tomorrow will you go to the next city?’
“I-iya.”
Suddenly the writing on the paper changed, the black inks danced to form other words and sentences. I was amazed at the miracle he had.
‘Then you will get a clue there about the truth.’
“By the way of truth, what truth do you mean?” I asked who dared to ask.
‘Look at it later, you'll find out soon.’
‘BRUSH’
The figure disappeared like it blew itself up and left behind flying black dust. I coughed because of the dust.
“Uhuk-uhuk, well he has disappeared..”.
I'm upset because he hung up my question just now.
‘Yes, how else, I can see it tomorrow.’ my knee while stepping into the house.
That night I did not expect to be able to talk to him even though he talked more through paper. It seemed like the figure named Peter rarely spoke and the person was very mysterious. I hope he keeps his promise and shows me the truth he means.
