Light Germination
1. After the Death of the Star
The atmosphere this morning was not as usual.
The two people sitting in the dining room.
Silence with each other's thoughts.
"Pa, Germilang hasn't been out of the room yet."
Adu a woman, Tamaya Mama from Germilang.
The old man who heard Tamaya's words even slightly clenched his eyes.
"Germilai was devastated by the death of the Star."
Reply to the old man, he is Vijaya. Papa Germilang's.
Tamaya nodded.
"Do we need to find a Star replacement? Mama can't bear to see Germilang like that continue."
Said Tamaya who was worried about her child's condition.
"For the time being, papa isn't sure there's someone who can take the place of the Star." Reply to Wijaya who has guessed in front of him.
"But it's not wrong to try, who knows there are women who attract Dimata Germilang besides the Stars." After he thought twice that his wife's idea could have worked.
...
Here another.
At the House of the Great Family of Aksara or the Star Family, which is still shrouded in grief due to the loss of her one-on-one daughter.
"Is there someone as bad as that pa? He ran our favorite kid to death, and then he just ran away. Mama will never be sincere pa!"
Say hysterical Mayang, mama star who has not been able to accept the departure of her favorite girl.
"Mama, maybe this is God's destiny. Papa is also still unable to be sincere. But we must try hard. Let the stars settle there"
Said the man who has the status of papa from Bintang and husband from Mayang, Herman.
Herman calms his wife.
He hugged Mayang into his arms.
"What about Germilang pa? Is he still hit?" Mayang asked who was still in her husband's arms.
"He's just like you, he hasn't been. Even his family said Germilang did not want to go out of the room at all."
Herman replied telling him about the news of Germilang.
Just now they will see his favorite daughter will be married in 2 months with his chosen man, Germilang.
But God said something else.
"Star, look because of your departure. Many people suffer, come back, son."
"Please please"
Mayang again cried, The mind of his brain continues to rotate the memory of the times when the Star was still alive.
He remembered.
1 Week before the death of his star, he and the star had time together to make a cake.
~Flashback
2 The woman, the child and the mother were busy in the kitchen.
"Ma, if the cake tastes good how?"
Ask plain stars at her mama.
Mayang Chuckled, When he heard the Star ask like that.
"Dear star, if that makes your sweet rich girl. Everything will taste sweeter" Canda Mayang with a small laugh.
The star smiled broadly at his mama's joke.
"My mom, I seriously know. Afraid she'll milang ga likes the same cake." Say the stars while singing her lips.
Mayang was very anxious to see this girl, what a little girl in his eyes.
"Believe the same mama, Germilang will love the same cake. Especially for his future wife and future father-in-law" Reply Mayang who successfully made Bintang smile embarrassed.
Mayang really likes to tease this girl.
~Flashback off
Unknowingly both of her cheeks were already wet, because of her crying.
"Pa, anyone who has made a star die must be punished with a heavy burden!"
Mayang said while looking at her husband.
Herman smiled faintly.
"Papa Promise, papa will find you who have hit the stars." Herman said while removing the rest of Mayang's tears on his cheeks.
"Mom don't be sad anymore"
...
The sun is already above, indicating the atmosphere has changed during the day.
Germilang finally decided to get out of the room.
Because he knew the house was deserted. His father went to the office this morning and his mother who 30 minutes ago went to his family's boutique.
Honestly, the 23-year-old man was hungry.
Because from yesterday's funeral star he hasn't eaten at all.
Her footsteps stopped.
When he saw Bi Inah, the maid at his house was berberes in the kitchen.
"Den Germilang, are you awake?" Bi Inah asked with a smile.
Germilang smiled, returning home a smile.
"It's bi" she replied politely.
"Want to eat or drink?" Ask Bi Inah who offered Germilang.
He still remembers the late star. Since the Star is very fond of fried rice cow's eye eggs.
He decided to eat fried rice beef eggs, his fiance's favorite food.
"Bi Inah, I want to eat beef-eye fried rice."
Bi Inah nodded.
"Yes, Auntie Bukain. Just a minute." Reply Bi Inah.
"Later, Ask for anther to the middle room please bi if it is already so." Pinta Germilang to Bi Inah.
"Ready den." Bi Inah replied while nodding her head.
Germilang's footsteps walked again towards the central room.
After arriving in the middle room,
he chose to sit on the long soffa.
Suddenly his eyes focused towards the picture frame that was displayed on the wall of the middle room.
He saw the old photo, Germilang's eyes slightly glazed as he stared fixed the photo in the frame.
"Star, do you remember that picture?"
What's in that picture?
Star Photo?
The photo contains, Memories of Germilang and Bintang Engaged on the island of Bali.
The photo was taken 6 months ago.
For Germilang these memories will not be forgotten.
It is difficult for Germany to accept destiny.
She is dating from High School with Bintang.
He's already asking for a star.
He's Fiancee with the Stars.
And he's already prepared to marry another 2-Month Star.
2 More months, not a long time.
5 Years of Relationship.
How long is the time.
Destiny remains destiny.
The woman he loved died so horribly, her body was lying in the middle of the road covered with blood.
God has taken her, but not her memories.
...
In one place.
The short-haired blonde woman, sitting with trembling, her face deathly pale and her body motions were like they were not calm.
You can guess he was scared.
She bit her lower lip, her right hand squeezed firmly into the end of her dress to reduce her fear.
BRAKKKIS...
The door opened loudly.
The woman who had lowered her head started to raise her head to see who was coming.
"Mommy?"
And it is true that the man who made him fear from earlier came.
The woman called mami stared intently at the blonde woman.
"Sorry mam, I can't pay her now" said the blonde woman in a soft tone.
His body instantly stiffened.
"Light, you're a cheap bitch!"
The light? A whore?
Who exactly is he?
...
Poetry Bonus
Dark Light
Works: Miftahul Kasanah
That light shines on the darkness
The light that makes the shadow
The light that leaves memories
The light that creates loneliness
The light was silent
The light felt empty
Can the light be dark?
The light seemed to have fallen asleep
The light wants to be loved
In order not to be so quiet
The light no longer knew the direction
Guide the light to know where it is going.
