Cringe
The bell ringing the hour of the last lesson sounded. Lya immediately tidied up her books and immediately went out with Diki. Just now that he had reached the door, someone had already blocked his path.
"Turn me over!" Karta.
Lya frowned. "Gue is with Cla" Lya replied.
"Gue needs to talk to you."
"It's okay! You can go home with Karta" Clarissa chirped behind Karta.
I looked at Diki. The man nodded in allowing.
"okay!" He answered and went ahead of them all.
Arriving at the parking lot, Karta immediately boarded her motorbike. They immediately walked out of school.
She just kept quiet, thinking where Karta would take her. Lya felt uneasy, let alone the motor Karta stopped in front of the funeral.
I got off the motor. "Say I want to talk, why go to the cemetery?"
"What we want is to have obrolin here" replied Karta. "Where do you eat your brother?"
Lya speechless. His body did not move until Karta grasped Lya's hand and pulled her into the tomb area.
"Gue don't know where it is, tell me!"
Lya took a long breath. He stepped leading the way until he stopped at a tomb that read Bima Mahardika R.
Lya and Karta were standing right in front of Dika's tomb and Karta kept holding Lya's hand, even the grip tightened as Karta read the name on the tombstone.
Long they remained silent. He did not open his voice nor did Karta. But Lya could feel Karta's hands sweating and shaking.
"Abang you are a coward!" Karta said slowly.
Lya did not answer. He needs an explanation and he will be a listener for Karta this time.
"Bag you coward so much that he can't reveal his true feelings. Bima was too cowardly until she left me this far."
"Lo know? I used to have no friends. The first time I entered Junior High I was in the same terrible stamp of children. Don't want to socialize, judes, don't care around. Until Bima came and ngerecokin my life."
"Lo know? Lo's brother was nyebelun same as lo. He suddenly came and wrote a book for me to read. There is no job, right? I give you a read. It's a good story."
The corner of Karta's lips is drawn. The eyes of the man were not separated from the tombstone of Bima.
"Lo know? What I have do otan pas brother lo nhomong that is, he's a weird anal. Damn it or what, I'm the same class as him and he's sitting my same as me."
"He doesn't talk much like you do! But it's pretty annoying."
Karta turned her head to Lya making Lya look at her.
"Don't always bother me. He always asks me to talk, even if it is not long. He always says good morning and be careful when he comes home. He always told me that until I got used to it and started talking to your brother."
"Lo know? I didn't even know I could be close to him in less than two months. He's smart, he's friendly, he's gentle, he can make me feel at home playing with him. He's my first friend yes."
Lya stroked Karta's hand, she realized that this man was like a lack of oxygen right now.
"We were together everywhere, until he met me in Noah and Tiara. You would not have thought that Noah first knew and was close to Tiara. Even the first time I met them I thought they were both dating. We became close friends after that, Noah same Bima really fit. They are both smart and love to read."
"Saking often we are together, in the second grade I feel that I like Tiara. I was quiet at first, but I couldn't feel it for long."
"Yes!" Calling Karta made Lya look at him. "Bima together Noah witness how my struggle was dapetin Tiara. From the past until now, many guys like Tiara. And Bima became the most meritorious person in my efforts to make dapetin tiara, he who always helped me. Until we're third grade, I'll reveal my feelings to Tiara."
"Lo know? I want to fly when Tiara Nerima loves me. Though I uda was afraid because Tiara was too close to Dion, but Bima always excited me Yes."
"My relationship was good until I felt everything was destroyed in one night."
"With a battered face, your brother came to me and told me that Tiara was kidnapped by Monster enemies. I was panicking, but Bima's other remarks that night made me almost crazy. Bima likes Tiara!"
Lya's eyes heated up, the girl tried to hold back her tears. But not with Karta, the man was already crying despite not letting out a sob.
"But something broke me that night, the night I cried the loudest that Bima was not my best friend anymore, the night where I screamed the loudest while squirming your brother stood in the enemy ranks. The night I realized that I was nothing more than a bego until I didn't know that my own best friend turned out to be my own enemy."
Isakan Lya is heard. His left hand covered his mouth so that his soaking did not sound loud.
"Tiara was not kidnapped Yes, you brother who brought Tiara to his leader, brother lo traitor!"
"That night Monster and Dragon War massively. But I'm the only one who can escape, I'm the only one who's saved Tiara. They let me into their base to release Tiara. I'm alone Yes!"
"Gue thinks I'm gonna make it. Actually no! Although I can find Tiara, but I can't take Tiara out. Gie was beaten up with them, I was framed. They said Bima wanted me dead that night. I feel like my heart's gonna stop there yeah, I'm falling, I'm breaking."
"Gue didn't know what happened next, until I could open my eyes after a month of coma."
"Lo know? What I really want is that your brother is next to me. I want him who I love after I sleep a long time Yes. I want him to apologize to me. I want him to explain why he should betray me Yes."
The card sobbed loudly. His hand clasped tightly onto Lya's hand until the tiny hand turned red. Karta put a light on the tombstone in front of her.
"Gue wants him to apologize to me. Yeah. I want him to tell me why he's giniinin me. I'm devastated Yes."
"Bang!" Lya's great-grandson finally made a sound.
"Abang lo disappeared after that incident. I think he ran away because he was afraid to see me again. I even found him. I'm nyari brother lo, I still need an explanation of him. I can't accept that he's gone. I even found Lisa, she's the girl who chased your brother during our three years in Junior High. He was always wherever Bima was. The girl didn't answer my question, she just said that Bima was leaving and she was leaving. Since then I've convinced myself to really hate the same brother lo."
The card faces Lya.
"But I can't ya hiks.if I have to be honest, I even still hope Bima is alive. I still need him Yes, I need his apology. I need him to get me again, he's still my best friend Lyah."
She hugged Karta. The man did not refuse, Karta hugged Lya tightly. She felt wet on her shoulder. Karta was crying without shame. The man's body shook violently. Lya rubbed Karta's back trying to calm down.
"Sorry me! Even if I know Bima likes Tiara, maybe I will not maximize my feelings. If Bima gave me a choice that night, if she asked me to choose her or Tiara. I wouldn't think twice about choosing him. I can find another girl but I can't find a best friend like Bima anymore."
"Elang, Juna, Kevin, even Noah. No one knows me as well as Bima.
"We all don't even know what Bima died of? We all think that Bima went out of the country or out of town. Turns out he went to a place where I really can't meet him, I want to pack a private jet though."
"Nobody knows Bima died."
Lya's cry hardened. "As I can't possibly betrayin lo bang, he must have done it with intent."
"I'm still waiting for the answer to yes!"
Karta let go of his embrace. The man walked closer to the tomb of Bima. "You know I answered Bim, tell me why you're doing it. Why can you gini? No children know that you are dead. Even that night Noah witnessed that you could still stand and wriggle I was taken to the hospital. Tell me Bim!"
"Gue has to find Lisa!" Lya's words made Karta look at her. "Lo said Lisa always deat Bima right?"
"But Bima doesn't like him Ya."
"Can you tell me about him?" Ask Lya.
Karta approached Lya. "Gue's not too close to him. But he's our classmate. I know from first class, Lisa has been chasing Bima. He had shot Bima many times but Bima always rejected him. Lisa is not bright, even though she is always rejected but she is still trying to get close to Bima. To the point where I met him one last time, when I asked Bima where, he just replied that Bima was going and she was going."
Lya shook her head. "Can't he follow Bima?" He was thinking negatively this time.
Karta understood Lya's intentions. "Don't Lisa know something? If he knew Bima died, where did he go? He couldn't have killed himself to come with Bima, could he? He can't be that stupid."
They both were silent thinking about this.
What the hell is going on?
Why doesn't a single child of Monster know that Bima died?
Where did that girl named Lisa go?
Neither Lya nor Karta could think of the answer now. Either they'll find out or maybe they'll accept the situation.
Because in the end, someone gives up something not because of desire, but necessity.
