Daffa actually did not sleep when someone opened the door to Mentari's room.
He deliberately pretended because he did not want the tranquility of Mentari disturbed.
Daffa smiled as he watched his mentor sleep while tightly holding his shirt.
He then rubbed his cheek. Stare at the face of Mentari before deciding to leave the room. He slowly removed Mentari's hand from his shirt.
"Define ".
Daffa stopped his steps when a soft voice from Mentari called out to him.
He abandoned his intention to leave the room because Mentari was awake.
" Why did you wake up. Is your sleep disturbed "?? ask Daffa after sitting next to Mentari who is still lying down.
" So they came here. I'm afraid of Daf " said Mentari slowly.
His face returned in fear. His eyes seemed to be moving agitatedly.
"Stttt, there's nobody here. Your father and mother came. Calmly ".
Daffa lay down again, hugging the frightened Mentari.
He gritted his teeth because he did not like his Mentari to be disturbed.
" Singer, do you believe me "?? daffa asked as he stroked the black hair of the girl who was still frightened in his arms.
He could feel Mentari's trembling body and continued to move restlessly.
" Yes, I believe you. You took care of me at school ".
Daffa smiled at Mentari's reply.
It turns out true that said Aunt Lena, Mentari can be a little calm after she was bullied because she felt there was someone who could protect her.
" Kangen I gk "?? ask Daffa again.
Mentari. His body began to calm down a little.
" Yes...
But I don't want them. I'm not wrong with them Daf ".
" They wouldn't dare bother you. There I will always take care of you from now on .Don't be afraid anymore ".
" If you're with me, won't they lock me up again "?? mentari asked as he looked at Daffa's face.
His eyes seemed very hopeful that Daffa would give him a conviction.
" Wouldn't. Those who will regret if they dare hurt you again. Now you believe in Mentari "?? answer Daffa.
" Yes, yes, yes,,.. They don't dare lock me up anymore because there's you. Isn't it "?? ask the Mentari with a smile.
His heart calmed down a little because he felt safe that someone would protect him.
Daffa nodded and smiled.
Relieved because there was a little smile from Mentari who had been missing from his lips for two days.
They looked into each other's eyes.
Sometimes, Daffa and Mentari could tell each other the answer just through their eyes, because they felt comfortable like that rather than talking through their mouths.
******
"My mom said Daffa's mother died after giving birth to Daffa.
Daffa was cared for only by his servant's grandmother and aunt from infancy. But even though she was endowed with the affection of her grandmother and her servants at home, I knew Daffa actually missed the affection of a Aunt's mother a lot.
He often secretly sees me when I'm with my parents ".
Ervin lowered his head sadly. He remembered when Daffa came to play at his house.
They were still in elementary school.
Daffa peered over the wall to see Ervin and his mommy laughing together.
He found out when he accidentally saw the CCTV footage of his house.
And it wasn't just a one-time thing. But repeatedly.
" Did your mother know of Daffa's behavior that often peeps at you secretly "??.
" Yes Aunt. I told him and Mommy was very sad. Maybe it was because she was also a mother so she could understand why Daffa did that. Mommy has since always paid attention to Daffa as much as I do. Daffa and I are getting closer because almost every day he comes home just to get the attention of mommy ".
Everyone in the guest room felt very sad after hearing about Daffa. This ice-cold prince turned out to be very lonely.
" Pity Daffa Yah" said the mother Mentari while wiping her tears.
" Since his mother died, his father returned to his company in Japan Tan" Ervin replied.
Ervina who was sitting next to Ervin clasped Ervin's hand tightly. If Ervin would have started acting strangely if Ervina had paid little attention to him, now she wasn't. He just kept quiet sad.
"Did his father not take care of Daffa "??.
Ervin shook his head. He tried to hold back his tears as he remembered what his best friend's grief was like.
"His father had only been home a few times since his mother died. He doesn't seem to care about his son.
His father was busy looking for money. Even his father didn't care when Daffa cried asking him not to leave. Little Daffa was anxious to feel what it was like to get congratulations from his father. But his father left him that day even though Daffa had begged at his father's feet ".
Ervin was no longer able to hold back his tears. He remembered how Daffa cried so hard at that time.
Ervina who was crying hugged Ervin. Can't imagine her sadness of being a little Daffa back then.
Only Mentari's father and aunt don't cry. But the look of sadness was visible in their eyes.
They all cried in silence.
" Sister, is it because Daffa is so afraid that someone will keep him away from Mentari "?? ask Aunt Lena after she's calm.
" Sister doesn't know Len, but can something like that happen "?? replied Mentari's father confused.
" Sister, Mentari is a person who easily cares for others. It could be that the concern Mentari gave Daffa had unwittingly developed other feelings for Daffa.
So he felt that only Mentari could give something that Daffa had not gotten from his parents. Some kind of over-possessive attitude " explains Aunt Lena.
"Beneficial Aunt. Ever since Mentari came to school, Daffa has followed her wherever she goes. There's even stranger Tan.
Daffa bought sanitary pads for Mentari and waited in front of the girls' toilet door until Mentari was finished. Crazy " said Rendra.
"Yes tan, he's like Mentari himself. Maya aja often in pelototin if you want to ngajak Mentari to gather fitting break "typal Maya.
Aunt Lena silently listened to their story. His forehead creased as if he was thinking of something.
"Len, will this not harm Mentari. Brother was a little worried about Daffa's attitude "asked Mother Mentari.
He was surprised to hear of Daffa's treatment which he thought was a bit excessive.
"Ehmmm, it doesn't seem like brother. This is like symbiosis-mutualism.
Mutual dependence on each other "Aunte Lena replied.
"You mean what's Len "?? ask the mother Mentari not understand.
" So, Daffa may feel like he got what he wanted from Mentari. And vice versa, Mentari get a sense of security from Daffa ".
" What do you mean their aunts are both interdependent, in need of each other "?? ask Ervina.
" Yes you really are. They depend on each other.
Mentari who experienced inner stress due to trauma, and Daffa who felt depressed by the nature of his father. So they feel like they're the ones who both need . Maybe this is also the reason why Daffa is so over on Mentari. No matter in front of anyone".
They all thought about how Daffa's behavior changed as soon as Mentari arrived. He never let Mentari get away from him.
And now, it is answered that their astonishment so far why Mentari never rejected the nature of Daffa is very excessive to him. It turns out that they are two people who have a problem that makes them feel comfortable with each other.
