Aara is Not Lara

Bruises and Black Jackets

If a panda's eyes still look cute, then Ara's eyes should be cute too. Ara couldn't sleep last night. At eleven o'clock at night Ara will be difficult to fall asleep, especially plus tempestuous anger.

One point on the ceiling of his room felt hollow because of the look of Ara's eyes. The blank view of his did not change even shifted a little. Only occasionally did the eyelids blink slowly withstanding the burning heat.

The sound of commotion sounded faintly in Ara's ears. The silent atmosphere changed filled with footsteps, the sound of hinges and falling goods. Turning her head on the phone on the nightstand, Ara gave a rough sigh already at 5am and she could not sleep at all.

"Fuck!!" Ara's right hand palms ached as she lifted her phone. The outer side of the palms up to 3 of his fingers was purple-black. The more Ara looked, the more pain her hand would feel.

"Huh!!"

"Should take a shower now just keep running away today." Mumbled Ara slowly while grabbing her towel.

"Hi baby Brother's favorite.." Ara said as she arrived at the kitchen floor of her house.

Cup

Ara gave a glimpse to the owner of the cheek that was busy hiding the chew in his mouth cavity. The morning commotion was seen with a bowl of cereal and orange peel as a container of orange seed residue. Who else if not Rian. Although his weight has dropped, but his habit of waking up to eat or just snacking still remains the same.

"Wouldn't you?" Rian's bargain on Ara with a spoon full of liquid milk. Not a single cereal swimming in the bowl was included. Thought Ara was so unrequited that her sister offered her food.

Briefly shaking Ara passed towards the bathroom. The bathing ritual will be much longer this time. His right hand really hurt, not only painful, but very, very super painful to want to cry. Ara did not think how a few hours ago he was still fine.

"Ouch!!" The toothbrush on Ara's left hand rubbed too deep until there was an impact on the gums. It seems that the white foam will be doused in red syrup that naturally flows from Ara's gums.

Ara is neither left-handed nor ambidextrous which can use both hands equally well. It was just that his right hand really could not be forced, even a small grip had already hurt his bones.

"Huh!!" Again Ara was only able to sigh violently.

Ara did not regret having gone blindly with violent last night. It's just that the pain felt very far from Ara's estimate.

"Geez Riiiaannn!!!"

"Well.." Ara laughed a little. Mama Lauritz's voice echoed again.

Already Ara guessed there would definitely be a choir. Mama Lauritz often hold Rian not to eat secretly like this morning, because later when Mama Lauritz cuisine is served Rian will have breakfast for the second time.

"The cross.. Brother Giillaaaang!!??" Shouted Ara in front of the door of the green rented house.

"Bang!!!"

Bugh

"By!!!" The hard blow that Ara gifted to the door landed on the chest of Bang Gilang's field.

"That's noisy. It's still this morning." Speak Bang Gilang while tidying up the hair that looks like a bird's nest.

"Depart to the workshop there Bang!" Said Ara ketus by waltzing in without permission.

"Om there's an urgent job, right?" Ask Bang Gilang while propping up the door to keep it open.

"Ara wants to borrow Brother's house to sleep." Said Ara who had been sitting sweetly on the corner seat of Bang Gilang's small rented.

"It's good to just sleep. Sleep there in your house." Said Bang Gilang nudging Ara's arm with his leg.

"That's Papa Mama's house."

"This is my brother's house."

"Ck! Contract Bang, not Brother." Clucking, Ara Bang Gilang's lyrics mocked with his thin grin.

"Dam!! Now have a brother. I'll pay until the end of the year."

"What boiled noodles Bang fry?" Said Ara who had placed her sling bag on the corner chair.

Footsteps bring Ara to the minimalist kitchen of the house. Like the owner of the house, Ara opened a small wooden cabinet with her eyes looking at the entire occupants of the closet. Not to forget also Ara opened the one-door refrigerator owned by Bang Gilang.

"Boiled noodles 3 aja Bang.. Use eggs with sausages. Brother will definitely eat hodgepodge Mbak Tuti again right?" Ara said as her left hand reached for all sorts of things she wanted.

"Udah is no longer Ra. Level up to become Mang Diro's helmet. Cheap, plentiful, delicious, spit again. Really good Beh Ra. Nysel was just trying to buy it yesterday." Said Bang Gilang who seemed to be imagining the form and taste of ketoprak.

"His fault is that my brother is still a young widow. Now Ara wants to be Bang.. Later buy 2 packs of armpits, huh Bang?" Speak Ara with sparkling eyes at Bang Gilang.

"Sawi until kisut gini is not cooked-cooked also this brother wants to waste huh??" Ara's mood immediately turned grim when she saw the three green mustard stalks that had withered. Even on one of the stalks almost turn yellow entirely.

"Later if it can come out a little during the day Ra." Bang Gilang suddenly chirped behind Ara who was waiting for boiling water.

"Why?" frowning astonished Ara at Bang Gilang.

"Why again!!? Later we are thought to gather the kayak kebo first.. Fortunately Mr. RT had met when you just came. If you're not your brother's wife now." Bang Gilang said.

"Kan because of the brother who closed the door. I know a lot of Bude-bude julid here. He told me to stay at home just as Mama did not want to. Room 3 on top of that is only 1 that uses the same Ara aja." Answer Ara sewot. Ara's lips can even be tied up so monyongnya.

"Damn!! Serem has a wife like Ara. Amit-amit is." Knocking on the top of his head several times, Bang Gilang still shuddered in horror at imagining Ara as his wife.

Drrt.. Drrt.. Drrt..

Ignoring Bang Gilang who was still in his fantasy world, Ara reached into the phone from the pocket of his oversized black jacket. Ara's left hand is quite shrewd although sometimes more easily tired of grasping a mobile phone compared to his right hand.

Both brothers could have sent Ara a message at about the same time.

Doctor Dion

Ara turned to see the contents of Doctor Dion's older brother's message after briefly replying to the message of the figure of the Doctor who had accompanied him this year. Very short, which is just 'Okay'.

Mr. Kim

Come to campus now meet me help finish the report.

I wait 9 in the vice dean's room.

"This guy must be the mode again. It is clear that different faculty even asked to help. What is the use of its faculty students?? Let it go." Ara's grumbling was upset.

Drrt.. Drrt..

Mr. Kim

Reply to me Ra.

"Aragh!! Malesin is really.." Furious Ara wanted to throw his phone into a pot filled with instant noodles.

"If not sincerely make noodles do not make. Look it's been bloated full boiled for a long time." Said Bang Gilang who had gone before on Ara while turning off the stove and lifting the pot containing bland boiled noodles.

Ara completely ignored Mr. Kim's message. When else there are students during stupid Ara who choose to sleep after the instant noodle matter is finished with one egg which is finally in a block and divided into two.

"Ra wake!!" Ara's body feels like a ball that was kicked rough for the sake of scoring in the opponent's goal.

The back of Bang Gilang's cursed leg apparently pushed Ara's arm. A little stronger that impulse could flip Ara's body. If Ara realized this time he must have snapped and bite out of Bang Gilang's shoulder.

"Hem.."

"Ck!! Wake up!! This ketoprak!!" The voice was full of annoyance, yet still attentively buzzing in Ara's auditory senses.

"Where?? Pedes right?" Ara's hoarse voice came out along with her body that was forced to sit down. Ara's closed eyes did not discourage Ara to grab a pack of 2 rubber ketoprak on a plate complete with a spoon.

"Sleeping here doesn't say Om's aunty, does it??"

"Hem.."

"Go also nyelonong that's for sure." The corner of Bang Gilang's lips lifted, he was sneering at Ara.

"Go back!! Like a wasted child." Cast Bang Gilang on Ara who began to feed her mouth with a drool.

"Kok use Ra's left hand?? Ehh.. I also ate noodles with my left hand, right??" Bang Gilang looked at Ara asking for an answer, "You want to learn to be ambidextrous?"

"Hem.." Just a short answer.

Ara managed to hide her entire right hand in the sleeve of the jacket the entire time. Not in vain experience of hiding Ara's arm incision all this time. A flat face as if everything was fine could always fool everyone.

...----------------...

"Sit down, Ra." Not a command, but a subtle speech allowed Ara to occupy a seat across the table.

Yes, Ara is now in one room with Doctor Dion. Many things Ara told me, including her desire to kill Auntie Sekar. Ara's determination seemed almost round if he had not had time to sleep to find calm.

If Aunt Laura is guilty of insinuation and forcibly depriving her of her rights, then Auntie Sekar is already more than that. At least Mama Lauritz's family did not step on and destroy Ara's family simultaneously in front of Ara's eyes.

"When you imagine the blood flowing from the person you stabbed, are you happy?" Ask Doctor Dion. Of course the sentence contained Ara's hallucinations. How could Ara still sit sweetly in front of Doctor Dion when he has launched his murder action.

"Happy. Satisfied. But I also want to cry." The voice of the raucous Ara. Ara wanted to laugh as hard as she was right now, but she also wanted to cry.

"Drink first." Doctor Dion thrust a glass of mineral water on Ara.

"Do I have to go if I don't feel sick anymore?" Ara asked without reaching for the glass filled with water. His head was tilted to see Doctor Dion.

The sad look from Ara's eyes was able to slice through the heart of anyone who saw it. But a few seconds later Ara's lips grinned wide almost like the Joker's hideous smile. The wistful eyes joined by a wide grin could not describe how Ara's mind content.

"Why should I disappear?? They are wrong, they are happy. They should be the ones leaving, right? Should have. They better die. If you wait for a long time, pity that many will get sick. I wouldn't be wrong to kill them, would I? ANSWER DOC!!!"

"THEY MUST DIE!!"

"I WANT TO KILL THEM!!"

Brakes

The hand that could not stand just to clench had already violently kicked the table. If not for her remaining consciousness, Ara would have already thrown a table before her and punched the thick glass wall that locked her up with Doctor Dion.

"Return your breath Ara. Many love you. Not because they have to die as you want, but remember the people who love you will be sad. They will be disappointed in those who cannot help you. So don't be alone, there's me, there's your friends, there's Om Yudith, Aunt Lauritz, there's two of your favorite sisters, Jona and Rian. You can Ra! You can get through all this.. Not now, but it will." Doctor Dion said at length patting slowly Ara's right shoulder with an occasional rubbing slowly Ara's back covered in a black jacket.

"Son.. No.. I'm ca-pek.. I live only for them.. I, I-I have no reason other than them.." Said Ara as hiccupping, both hands tightly closed her earlobes.

"For my own sake Doc.. Once I let him die. I'm sak.. Not strong enough for all this.." Clenching her palms together, Ara pleaded with Doctor Dion.

"Medicine!? Yes, the medicine is Doc.. Please increase the dose.. I can't sleep without the drug. Don't be reduced again." Said Ara sparkling, if he can not kill, must not leave the world, at least he can still hang his calm on the medicine.

"You have to learn to let go.. Youcan. You will soon be healed. You will no longer need that medicine Ra. Patience is dear.. You believe me, right??" Doctor Dion stared into Ara's eyes. He wanted Ara to be sure that at any time he would remain standing beside Ara giving strength.

Just like a person sitting on his head with both hands resting on his knees. He wanted to be a force for Ara.

His head was throbbing intensely thinking of Ara. Not selfish because of the blind jealousy of his sister, but the disappointment of being so late makes Ara sure that many want it.

Yes, Mr. Kim or the figure of Rava who decided to see Doctor Dion who was presented with the presence of Ara was silent to think of what ways to do so that Ara would continue to fight for her life. Whatever Ara's gonna do.
