Clouds Pursue Love

18 - Love In Silence or Unrequited Love

Shika stepped down one by one the stairs as her hands clenched Kevin's arms. Being lowered and preoccupied with her own thoughts unaware of Shika's arrival, Shika looked at her sister with condense eyes. His heart ached, because his childish attitude made his brother sad.

Zoya who was sitting beside touching Dika's shoulder, Dika turned her head with a glance Zoya's eyes pointed at Shika. When he looked at what Zoya meant, he stood up as soon as he saw his sister there. His lips were attracted to form a smile, his eyes were glazed over.

"Sister!" call Shika with a trembling voice. He ran towards Dika hit the body of the man, hugging tightly the body of the brother. Her crying broke, Shika sobbed in Dika's arms.

"Sorry Fe, brother. Sorry!" Feshika's great-grandson with her hoarse voice.

"Big brother's wrong, baby. You are wrong, sorry brother. Again, it makes you disappointed!" Even if he could no longer hold back his tears, he did not care about being considered a crybaby man.

Shika shook her head, "Please, big brother don't keep caving in for, Fe."

"Sister, will continue to do anything for you. As long as you're still breathing." The atmosphere is so harsh, not only those who cry. Everyone who was there shed tears.

Including the author to cry, so termhek-mehek 😭

*****

After hearing all the explanations from her brother, Shika blesses Dika and Zoya's relationship. The atmosphere of the blue haru had changed cheer, they were chatting and joking. The warmth created in their midst makes their bond stronger.

The day began late at night, all had returned to their respective rooms. Today was so tiring, a lot of drama happened unexpectedly. The fate that determines everything, all the scenarios have been neatly written. We as characters only run the scene according to their respective roles.

Shika returned to her room with a bottle of mineral water in her hand. However, as Shika passes through the central space that is directly connected to the back garden. He saw the Clouds standing alone facing the garden, Shika also brought her feet closer to the Clouds.

"Sister..!" call Shika as she approaches the Clouds standing outside.

The clouds flinched, as the soft voice greeted him. "Yes..!"

The girl had been standing behind him, the Clouds turned to stand right in front of the girl who had a thought. Yes, Awan had stood there since he only thought of the girl he loved and loved by other men. With a distance of only one step apart, the Cloud could clearly see the beautiful face in front of her, staring intently not wanting to turn away for a second.

No different from the Clouds, Shika also stared fixedly at the face of the Clouds. The man she knew had a love for her. But he was unable to repay that love, giving the Clouds false hope would hurt the man even more deeply.

"Thank you, Fe...." Shika's words stopped because her tears wanted to shed.

"Why do you like to cry so much, hm? don't be sad anymore and stop crying, you can get dehydrated." Cloud half joked to neutralize the rumble in his heart.

"Hmmm.." Shika smiled slightly then nodded while rubbing her tears rough.

"Drink." The clouds take the mineral water in Shika's hand open the lid and thrust it at Shika.

Now they stood side by side looking at the flower garden that lay before their eyes, only the silence of the night accompanied by the sound of crickets accompanying them.

"Ka, can you ask me something?"

"Can." Shika replied without looking.

"How are you feeling about Kevin?" asked Awan to the point, he did not want his curiosity to disturb his heart and mind.

Shika was surprised to get the question from the Clouds, she turned to look at the Clouds for a while and then looked back to the front. His eyes closed, regulating the pounding in the chest.

"What to answer, brother?"

Silent

"I never asked who it felt like it had to grow up, but when Kevin's brother came along it was like half of my soul that had been lost was back. I've been feeling love for five years, but I don't know what it could be called love."

"When I was with Kevin I felt something different that I never felt. Every time he is with her, I don't know why this heart is always beating. Until I finally realized I loved her."

"Why don't you tell Kevin? Don't you think Kevin loves you too?"

"Everything Kevin did for me was just a brother's attention and affection for his brother. I don't want to misinterpret all that, which will make our togetherness disappear. I'll keep this feeling, I hope you don't tell anyone including Kevin." Shika smiled bitterly.

"promise, brother. Like I promised you to open my heart again. Now I have fulfilled that promise." Shika's eyes glazed over, staring expectantly at the Clouds. Shika gave her pinky, Cloud took a deep breath and then slowly threw away. With a heavy heart the clouds hook their pinkies on Shika's pinky.

Shika hugged the Clouds tightly, her face was buried in the field of Clouds. Throw away her tears, so sick love in silence. But for the sake of a relationship he must be willing to harbor feelings.

Which hurts more, loving in silence or expressed but unrequited love?

Love is what we feel

Let the heart suffer

O pujangga love let me caress beautifully

Kalbuku teladani

Be honest with your heart

Difference between you and me

Let it be a temple

In the most beautiful love poems

"It's late, we better get in. Rest, brother don't want you to get sick." Clouds said after breaking his embrace. Gently wiping the remaining tears in both corners of the beautiful eyes of Shika.

Shika nodded, then said goodbye to the Clouds. "Good Night, brother."

Shika walked towards her room, The clouds did not even a little turn their eyes until the girl disappeared behind the door. He immediately stepped towards his room to cool his body, heart and mind.

Without them realizing it, someone had stolen all their talk from beginning to end. None escaped his hearing and was recorded perfectly in his memory.

Your love is so complicated!

Although the clouds have shrouded your light, not a single bit of you has been forgotten from my imagination.

Good night, Feshikaku!
