“Best mask
from a life is to act in silence…
Where in the world, not everyone sees what
which we can
look, where are the people
the world is judging by what they might hear, not
what actually happened..For that..”.
“ ....I also promise. My life is yours forever. My love is only you. My faith is in your faith and this soul will always wait until you wake up from your long slumber to continue to accept my presence in your life... ” the figure of the black-robed man standing silently in front of the chunks of blood-red ice crystals. Holding the hand of a little girl, the robed man moved from where he stood now.
Occasionally the man looked back, right at the chunk of blood-red ice crystals. The figure of a young girl who just a while ago promised to live together forever. His eyes firmly believed that the figure confined within the ice crystal was the same girl as the young girl who had promised to live together forever. It's just that the figure of the girl in the ice crystal chunk is now as tiny as the figure of the girl who was holding her hand now. The black dress that the little girl wore in the ice crystal chunk was the same as the figure of the little girl holding her hand, making the two little girls she saw before her as if they were mirror images. It was really similar and indistinguishable which one he was actually looking at.
The man gently pulled the hand of the girl with him. He turned his back and prepared to distance himself from the shadow that now plagued his thinking.
“ Where are we going? ” ask the little girl who is holding the man's hand. “Are we going far? Are we gonna leave him here alone? ” the little girl turned to look at the blood red ice crystal she had just left.
Seeing that there was another life in the ice crystal chunk from a distance, the little girl came back to the ice crystal behind her. Gazing at the figure of the other little girl within the ice crystal, he gave a small smile. He placed the tiny hand on the shadow of the palm of the little girl in the ice crystal chunk. Eyes closed. Smiling with a sense of life in the ice crystal before her, the little girl was shocked by the clapping of the man who took her to where she was standing.
“We have to go now? ”
“Ngg..” the little girl nodded slowly. Back holding the man's hand, he hummed ria.
In a lesion in the middle of a foggy night, the man carried the little girl with him. Sometimes he looked back behind him. Where everything becomes further and further away, shrinking and slowly disappearing from view.
“ Where are we going? Is brother coming with us? ”
Hearing the question that came from the little girl he was carrying, the man stopped his pace at the edge
a connecting road between cities. Beside the small bridge of the road, the man stood and occasionally the car lights gave light to his silent figure.
“ How long? ”
“ It may take a short time..” replied the man laughed.
The little girl just stared meaningfully.
“ We'll always visit brother, won't we? ”
“ Yes!" The answer. "Every decade, we'll be back here. See if your brother is awake or not? ” the smiling man comforts the little girl who may be from her tiny body, her age looks like a five-year-old, but her life has been running for almost a hundred years. “ For a while we have to stay away from this place. Just to make sure we can come back here.”
The little girl nodded cheerfully. “ Big Brother will definitely wake up from his long sleep.”
The man smiled. Strengthening his grip on the little girl in his carrying, he again darted away from where he stood. Darting as far as possible to find the mystery of the locked figure of the other little girl on a chunk of red crystal as thick as the color of blood.
In his mind there were many possibilities which out of all possibilities, he could not find anything that must have happened. Even for every decade he passed, the answers he sought remained a mystery to him.
Where the figure in the ice crystal chunk does not show signs of resurrection and others.
"Sister still not awake?"
"Yes" she replied. "We will wait a longer time to be able to come into contact with it directly.
"Still have to wait again?!"
"Yes!"
The two figures in the darkness of the night darted rapidly and disappeared from the sight of the old man who was the guardian of a blood-soaked chunk of red ice crystals that to the old man only looked like a stone old master which became the starting point of the city where he lived.
"It's been 8 times." murmured the old man put his glasses back slightly down to the tip of his nose.
That night, the night again showed its darkness illuminated by moonlight. The light shone on all corners of the place especially chunks of ice crystals as red as the color of blood.
