Hugged Me
Chapter 25
“When will you go home?” ask Nina.
The sky that was eating Nina's food immediately stopped its activities for a moment. He stared at the girl with a flat look for quite a while as if he was thinking of something.
“This is my home,” the answer is short.
Nina took a long breath. “So don't want to get together with us? Stay with Papa?”
The hand that was about to put the spoon filled with food into the mouth of the sky immediately stopped. He again kept his spoon on the plate and looked at Nina with an elusive highlight. The appetite of Heaven was instantly gone.
“Create what? Do you all despise me and my mama?” ask Sky sarcasm.
Some throbbed pain like being pierced by thousands of needles in the heart of Heaven. His emotions were turbulent, wanting to overflow to the surface. But as much as possible the heavens hold him.
“Kak—“
“Udah malem, mending lo home now. In a moment you pick you up,” said Cold sky.
He moved from his seat about to go to the room leaving Nina along with the sound of the doorbell ringing.
The sky turned towards Nina. “Lo know what now?” he said while coding loudly to throw Nina out of her apartment.
Nina's eyes glazed over. He did not expect the attitude of Heaven would be like this to him. Although there is no blood relation, but Nina really considers Sky as her brother just like she did to Venus.
The girl got up from her seat and left feeling upset. As soon as she opened the door, Venus was already standing there staring at her.
“Back!”
One word of the command came out of the mouth of Venus to Nina. The girl did not notice, she looked at the older brother for a few seconds and left without speaking.
Venus stared at the door of the apartment owned by Sky for a moment, then immediately followed Nina who had left first.
“Ngapain you in her apartment?” ask Venus.
“Means Brother Venus, Sky Brother?” Not answering, Nina instead emphasized who ‘dia' is meant by Venus.
Nina looked at Venus who remained focused on her steering wheel. After that he let out a rough breath.
“I just want to see Sky Brother, and it turns out my vision is right he is not okay,” said Nina.
Venus listened but did not care about the matter discussed by Nina right now. He stayed focused on his wheel.
“Silver Sky came home with many wounds on his body. He is rich in fighting with someone,” said Nina while looking at Venus.
Venus listened but she remained silent.
“Kak, why the hell do you have to hate the same Sky Brother? Here Kak Langit is not wrong anything with us.”
Nina's words successfully ignited Venus' emotions. He who had just focused on his steering wheel turned his head towards Nina, looking at her sharply.
“You still ask why Brother hates him?” Venus doesn't believe her sister will behave like this. “Didn't you see how my mom was doing at that time? He and the woman have ruined our family,” he said cynically.
Nina choked. He recalled the incident two years ago when his mother and father had a big fight because Angkasa was found to have a special relationship with other women in the past to have children. And that child is the sky.
His family was destroyed in a matter of seconds. Her mother immediately dropped and wanted to divorce because she did not accept the betrayal of her own husband. Nina and Venus are the victims of her family's destruction.
Yes, even though it's all over. Mery and Angkasa have discussed and resolved their problems to the end until Mery wants to forgive and not get divorced. But still, Mery and Venus still could not accept the Sky.
On the other hand, Sky was contemplating alone inside his room. He stared at the photo of his long-dead mother with a sad look.
No one knows the pain and suffering that Heaven has felt all along. Everyone hated and insulted her because she was born an out-of-wedlock child.
The Sky Chest felt increasingly claustrophobic. He could no longer remember such a painful past.
The sky was smiling obliquely, he was laughing at himself which was so pitiful. Even in the worst of times, the sky had no one to hug and calm him down.
Unknowingly her tears were shed and dripping on the photo she was holding. The sky instantly removed the clear liquid.
The sound of vibration from his phone resuscitated the Sky from the daydream. She kept a picture of her mother in a drawer and then took her phone on a nightstand.
The sky wiped away the trace of tears on his face then let out a long sigh before shifting the green-colored icon to answer the phone.
“For a long time you answered my phone.”
The sky chuckled softly hearing a loud voice from across there.
“Udah sleeping?”
“Not yet,” reply Sky.
“Eh? What's your voice?”
“Emang my voice why?” Not answering, the sky asked.
It just makes the Sun tick from across the phone.
“Kaya is different. Lo sick?”
The sky shook its head as if the Sun could see it.
“No, I am healthy wal afiat,” he replied. “Tumbenan lo phone me first. Malem-malem. What's up?”
“Can't ya? Yes I hung up.”
“EEh, don't.”
The sun was chuckling from across the phone. This makes the sky immediately scratch his head that does not itch.
If the Sun saw him firsthand how happy the Sun was to contact him.
“Gue only want mastiin if you are not dead.”
“Sial!”
Sun laughs. “Handering,” said. “Yes because I closed the phone first. I want to sleep.”
“Sun,” call Sky.
Luckily the Sun still heard him until he did not turn off the phone.
“Ya?”
“Can't you please don't turn off the phone? I'll be back a minute.”
Silence, there is no lawfulness from the Sun. The sky lowered for a moment then raised its head again. After that he took a long breath.
“No papa if you want to sleep, just sleep. But his phone is not to be killed.”
“Lo, why?”
Silent, the sky lowered with eyes closed. His hand was on the phone 4s that was still stuck to his ear.
"You want to tell me, I'm ready for it. Yeah, although maybe I can't help much but just as little burden on your heart is reduced."
"Sun" said the sky paused for a few seconds. "Thank you."
"Oh, not yet, the story. I didn't even help you, but you said thanks to me."
The sky lowered and smiled thinly.
If the Sun knew its presence meant so much in the life of the Sky.
If the girl knew that indirectly she had extended the life of the Sky which had long been desperate.
And if the Sun knew the Sky had loved her long ago, even long before Venus knew her.
