Blue stood up straight looking at her brother with a carefree heart. The girl still felt that she did not have the backrest of life. Luckily, the Satya family offered to be willing to accommodate him and remain prejudiced. Blue knew that sooner or later he would have to leave his sister's family so they could live more peacefully with his little family. Maybe Lily had realized there were seeds of love in her sister's heart against her husband so she handed Blue's upbringing to her brother. Coincidentally a tadpole. Ritha's sister doesn't mind holding him. The gentle-hearted woman must not have the heart to directly reprimand her sister. It was not that his heart was not restless and jealous. Nope. Except for Lily's love
blue is more than her hate. After all Blue only plays with its own growing flavor unintentionally planted. As long as there is no infidelity, love is just a sense that is not to blame.
Blue suspects, counseling teachers may have leaked his confession when caught red-handed several times stalking Asep kang through the pesantren CCTV footage on Lily. It is impossible for the counselling teacher to be silent. Lily must have known her feelings, either from her gigat or from the counseling teacher's notice.
Really am. Blue is embarrassed. Why love should be placed on the wrong person. Why is there a heart of the devil in his soul. He wanted to apologize to his angel-hearted brother. But now is not the right time. There's Bus. An honest confession can have a long problem if done in front of his older brother who is tempramental and clearly still holds grudges and anger at his biological mother.
Distance and time will surely erase the love that should not have grown in his heart. Her counselling teacher once said that. Blue sure must now go to forget Asep's kang, because he's not her match. She belongs to Lily, her angel-hearted older sister. There are the hearts of his 3 nephews who must be guarded as well. They are a happy family. Blue should not be selfish to destroy their happy home. In a new place later he will meet more people who may be one of them is his soul mate. Who know? The road is still very long. Soon he will enter young adulthood. These two years were his last chance to study independently. Maybe soon he depended on Satya. After High School, he wanted to study outside the city and live independently of the legacy money that should have been fully managed by him at the age of 18 years. Blue doesn't want to trouble anyone anymore.
Before boarding the helicopter that took her away from the Beautiful place where she had grown up, Blue parted with warm greetings and hugs for Lily.
“Thank you for caring for and guiding Blue all this time huh, Brother. Blue is sorry for being so much wrong and troublesome sister Lily.”
“Good in Jakarta, Bi. Obey the same brother Satya and sister Ritha yes. They both love you very much. In Jakarta you will get a better education. Remember to pray and do not fall prey to the night life of Jakarta. Everything that teachers teach in pesantren is a life supply, so it should always be remembered and so hold on as you waver at the worldly glitter.”
Blue nodded. Lily still kissed her sweet potato with love. His body felt warm and reassuring. Who the hell can hurt a human day as tender and sincere as Lily. Blue should be strong. Trying hard to forget the wrong love.
It was hard to leave the house where he grew up for almost 17 years. The peaceful house where Blue went home though he was rarely anywhere. His school and dormitory were only a few hundred meters away from the house. During school holidays Blue more often spend time in the park or help the garden workers take care of coffee plants, pepper and ginger. Occasionally he took the time to make a pilgrimage to the tomb of papa, visit his brother's house or vacation to places of recreation with friends. Sometimes Faiz invited him to visit various places outside the city with the Satya family. Going abroad has also. Satya and Lily's extended family once took her on vacation to Switzerland and Umrah to the holy land. But his daily life remains locked between school, dormitory and his sister's house. The house is his world and Blue happily lives there. Until death Blue wants to be in that house.
The house was built as a villa to unwind. The surrounding scenery is beautiful because it is between hills and valleys with fertile soil. There are flower gardens, industrial plant gardens, natural water sources, and some towering pine trees. Blue must be missing back there. Not when. May his wounds heal quickly until he can return to that house as a noble hearted man. No more whispers of the devil that tempt him to do shameful things in the name of love.
“Pick!” the sound of Bas's whispering sounded jarring.
Blue let go of her older sister's hand that was still holding her. It feels so bad that Lily's little heart feels heavy letting go of her. Lily's children crucified her but looked on with questioning looks. Kang Asep did not show any expression. Just flat. There was no sense of loss or pleasure left behind by the sister-in-law who secretly admired him. There was no blue in his heart. The status is the same as for others who are well-received and appropriately. Blue was obviously a nobody to him.
Blue immediately ran to the helicopter runway. He doesn't want to be left behind. He had to go to Jakarta and open a new story in an environment that was certainly different from where he grew up all this time.
“Always pray Blue be a sholihah child yes, Brother!” her door. Blue turned his head for a moment with his hands waving as a sign of farewell.
Kang Asep is a good man who does not get tired of accompanying Lily who often goes to the hospital because of congenital diseases she suffered. Long life is a gift. That must be because Lily's life is supported by a peaceful environment and understanding of the people around her. Blue salute to the couple. Support each other, love each other and understanding each other. He hopes to find someone like Asep out there. A simple man, hard worker and loving family. For him a special man should be like that.
"Auntie will sleep in my guest room or my room, Bun?" faiza asked Blue's mind about Asep's figure.
"If it's in your room, okay?" Ritha asked back.
"Can. But a blue aunt has to tidy up the bed after bed."
"According to Mommy while better aunt Blue sleep in the guest room only. Later if for example there are guests staying, Aunt may share sleep in Faiza's room."
The little girl nodded. Blue just smiled faintly.
The trip this time is not for vacation, but to gain a more independent learning experience living in a big city. Jakarta definitely has a more complicated life with a very diverse character of people. There are no strict rules like pesantren. Patterns of life and activities must be arranged alone so as not to get caught up in unnecessary associations.
Mama is one of the big questions still swirling in her head. If there is still something called an inner bond, you should be able to return to the Menteng house to meet her long-abandoned child. Did you know Blue is alive? That house was once the home of my mother. Simple logic says, if mama does love papa there must be a desire to visit the house that was once a memory of their love.
Blue is still thinking about something that is almost impossible. Although faint, there was a speck of hope buried in the depths of his heart to be able to see the person who had given birth to him. What was his face like? Is Blue so similar to him that Bas always emotion every time he looked at him as if he was the actor who supposedly caused the death of their biological mother.
As bad as she is still a mother who has risked her life for the birth of a child who may not be expected by anyone. Although the sense of disappointment in the figure of the mother has been mounting, but Blue also has a little miss for him. I miss the mother who has never been there for me in a lifetime. Maybe Blue is already considered dead. There may be a tomb of its own that his mother visited in memory of the Blue baby. Does he always visit his son's grave? Her world feels so confusing.
