Things that plague Jimmi and M are revealed already. Now they know why Amy forgave them so easily. Also the reason why the girl is still studying.
Amy is determined to enter Smart University. A private college with a major in criminology. However, it is located north of their small town, while Jimmi and M are far south of the city. The distance between cities X and Z is approximately three hundred kilometers. Further 70 km from their small town distance with X— city where Scholar University is located.
The anxiety of the two men was clearly drawn on their faces. They plan a plan B that is fun for them but Amy instead thrusts a plot twist. More painfully, they knew that Amy could not be persuaded.
"He's that serious about being a criminologist? I can't believe it" M said as she and Jimmi were about to sleep in the basement.
Jimmi was silent, staring at the ceiling. He spoke to Amy. Persuading him, even begged that he continue his studies in city X alone. However, her boyfriend remained unmoved by his decision. Makes the guy frustrated half to death.
"You knew from the beginning that I was going to do this, right?“
Jimmi's eyes rounded at Amy's question. Reminds him of an old event, before he graduates High School.
"My mom told you, right?“
"Why ...." Jimmi was too surprised by those words. Anne did tell him that one day Amy herself would decide to live independently.
"I met him, Jimm. Yesterday I saw her warm black eyes, her finely-grained straight hair and her sweet, pale lips. I finally saw him again" said Amy, who looked at Jimmi with wet eyes. "He told me everything. She hugged me. It really feels real." Amy smiled with tears flowing.
Jimmi hugged the girl. Knowing that Amy's longing won't pay off with one hug of Anne's.
"She said it was the last one. He said he'd be gone forever, Jimm." Amy's body started to shake. "Why? After a dozen years he showed up just to say goodbye. He shouldn't just show up in front of me!“ Amy roared and shook Jimmi's body. Wreaking his frustration and sadness at that tall guy.
Jimmi was unable to say a word. His chest also felt tight to see Amy who was again lost. He was only able to continue hugging Amy's small body until the girl slowly calmed down.
The ceiling of the room suddenly darkened. Jimmi realizes that M has been lying next to him and turns off the room lights. Jimmi suddenly wonders if M has also seen Anne. Amy's mother once said that she would disappear forever after showing herself to Amy and M.
"Marsh, are you asleep?" ask Jimmi.
"Yet. Why?“ m replied with closed eyes.
"Have you seen your mother? I mean recently."
There was no response from M. Time stopped and Jimmi looked at his best friend.
"I saw it when we left for city X for the first time" said M. "Did you see her again?"
Jimmi knew Anne had told him everything, too. "No" he answered.
"She said she'd be gone forever."
"Yes." Yeah."
Then the silence was again created. No one spoke until the two fell asleep in the light of a sleeping lamp.
*******
Nothing can prevent rain from falling from the sky. Because the trees cheered, the ground laughed and greeted him, because the sky knew that the clouds would always return to him.
Jimmi let Amy go that day. After graduation, Amy sets out for the city of Z to pursue her goals. It will not hinder the wishes of his loved ones. She will always support him, just as Amy did the same to him.
Love is not limited by time and space. That's what Jimmi learned from Anne and Jerome. Both can keep their loved ones from afar and from a different world. Anytime and anywhere, they can take care of each other.
"You didn't forget your ticket, did you?“ ask Jimmi when they arrive at the bus stop.
Amy smiled and nodded. M's sister now looks more mature. Amy's hair had elongated a boat, blown by the wind that passed through the stop leisurely.
"I'll take you to Z city" Jimmi said, showing off a bus ticket.
"Your plane?" amy asked with one eyebrow raised.
"I leave tomorrow" replied the man who had also grown up. Jimmi wears shirts more often than sweatshirts now.
"Ah ... aren't you tired later?“
The wind blew louder, blowing away the dry leaves and making Amy's hair fall apart. Jimmi tidied the girl's hair.
"I can't get tired of being close to you" she said with a smile that still made Amy flutter.
"It's not long ago." Amy tried to drive away the warm thump that began to seep in her heart.
"He picked up his new girlfriend first" Jimmi said, looking at the watch.
"Well, what is this? Kok, I don't know yet. Who's sister's boyfriend?"
"Our sister," replied Jimmi. "You'll know in a minute." Jimmi smiles amusedly, making Amy suspicious.
"Son't you going out with this girl from town and a college with her? Ck! Life is unfair!“ amy's grunt is jealous of M's unnecessary LDR.
A trace of guilt appeared in Amy's heart. "I'll come back to you, I promise," he said, then grabbed Jimmi's hands. "You're one of my wishes, Jimm."
The bus stop looked empty that day. Only Jimmi and Amy are waiting for M and her new boyfriend.
Jimmi looked into Amy's deep black eyes. He believes in the girl in front of him and will also keep Amy's trust. Like the past few years, they could definitely keep that feeling for a lifetime.
"I love you" Jimmi said half a whisper. He brought his face closer to Amy.
"I love you more" Amy replied unblinkingly seeing the handsome face getting closer and closer to her.
"We're coming!“
Amy moves away from Jimmi reflexively but the guy manages to hold her one hand tightly. He saw M coming with someone who made his mouth almost agape.
"Oh, are we interrupting? Did ... did you guys want to do something romantic?"
This child is still outspoken, Amy thought.
"If you know, you should stop there first and let us finish!" exclaimed Jimmi who without realizing it made Amy cheeks met red.
"Aurora's? So, sister's new boyfriend isn't actually her new boyfriend but her ex?" amy asked so consciously from her blooming feelings.
M smiled widely while Aurora looked like she was pretending to be unconcerned.
"What's going on, huh? Isn't my brother no longer your taste?" seduce Amy while nudging Aurora's shoulders.
"The fate no one knows. You're the one who said you desperately didn't like Jimmi just about kissed him!" an inadvertent Aurora's reply stabbed Amy right in the chest.
Amy's face was more red than before. He was even at a loss for words to reply to that one girl.
"Where's your suitcase, Jimm?" tanya M who only saw one red suitcase belonging to her sister.
"I'm home tomorrow."
"Ah, yes. I forgot that you're gonna escort my sweet sister to Z."
Jimmi nodded and squeezed Amy's fingers slowly.
"Oh, that's our bus coming." Jimmi grabs Amy's suitcase.
Amy hugged M tightly and said goodbye. "Congratulations on your relationship!" whispered to M. Then he hugged Aurora too and left with Jimmi.
"Hey, if you want a kiss, look around! Don't let anyone see!" aurora's successful shout made Jimmi and Amy's faces turn like boiled shrimp.
The bus leaves M and Aurora alone at the bus stop.
"You're suggesting something you've never done." M chuckles tickled.
"Why indeed?" sahut Aurora's.
"Now it's deserted. There's no one else." Bring her face closer to Aurora, making the girl dig-degan. "I want to pee" said M slowly when his nose was right in front of Aurora's nose.
The girl pushed hard M. He knew the guy was teasing him.
"I'm serious" said M who got a hard blow on his back later.
Seriate...
