Like the Fragile Who Tried to Stay Whole

After Azka's employees were at the Cafe, Aera was driven home by Azka using the same motorbike that was then delivering Aera to school.


Not long ago Aera had already tendered her head back to sleep on Azka's shoulders.


Being a cheerful person is not entirely easy, sometimes very tiring. Every feeling of a person alternates with his state, and for time is not always the same situation in it. Being tiring with a person who is cheerful because everything and circumstances seem to demand to keep smiling and laughing in front of many people, without caring or even forgetting their own feelings and tastes.


But unlike with Aera all exposed as is, all happy and cheerful is indeed there and felt.


Aera was a strange and inconsistent looking woman with her gaze filled with anger and sadness. Aera looks so complicated, her smile, her cheerfulness, and her occasional temperament and emptiness all seem real in one person.


Many feelings are in his hold, there are times when he shows the feelings that exist but can change in the blink of an eye, so inconsistent in his control.


Azka pulls Aera's hand to loop around her belly, just holding Aera back from falling over.


Quite slowly Azka riding a motorcycle, did not want to disturb Aera's sleep. Looks so tired especially with eye bags that look like pandas are not as usual.


Initially only one hand was circular in the stomach of Azka but suddenly Aera wrapped both hands still in a stand Aera hugged Azka tightly, securing her position.


Azka was delayed for a moment watching Aera who was hugging her tightly.


Azka let, himself did not mind what Aera did, because Azka felt comfortable and understood with Aera who needed her.


When I met Aera this morning on the road, with Aera bowed down to breathe a few times, and when Aera looked at Azka, her different glagat, Azka understood that something was going on with Aera.


When someone displays his good and cheerful state does not mean he is fine. Look into his eyes and feel his emptiness and difference, all of which will be clearer than just the word "just fine".


There are times for some people or even for everyone when saying 'well' he is lying, not because he does not need a backrest and is listened to, just that he is hesitant, he said, shy or even afraid if even his openness becomes a laughing stock for the wrong person he believes. There are many people who ask not because he cares about it but just wants to know with his curiosity.


Already on the terrace of Aera's house with mba Ana sweeping in front.


Mba Ana approached Azka who had just turned off her motorbike, seeing Aera sleeping on Azka's shoulder.


"Miang mba Ana?"


Sapa Azka still with her position holding Aera.


"Yes noon, this is Aera why?"


Being next to Aera was holding her.


"Mba sleep, do I want to wake up or do I want to carry in?"


"Anything can come in?"


Noticing Aera who looked so soundly asleep like an exhausted person.


"Can mba, help me hold Aera for a while so I can move in on my back"


Already in Azka's arms in sleep, unaware of what Azka is doing this time for her.


Lose Aera so heartily and envelop her.


Azka came out with Ana between the mba until at the door, the two facing.


"Thank you for bothering Anterin Aera"


"Same as mba if that's what I say"


"The heart is yes"


I left Aera's house to go back to the cafe. But on his way a fancy car with someone inside him that Azka knew almost made him wretched. From the same direction the car just kept trying to graze the Azka motor, fortunately Azka can avoid it. The car that drove back fast, ignoring Azka.


Azka pulled over noticing the luxury car speeding away from her sight. Azka stroked her breath with a different look and expression.


Dark expanse, Aera returned to this place for the umpteenth time.


Aera stepped to follow where her footsteps were. Stopped when Aera saw a small room so dim that a man lying unconscious was lying down.


In the depths of his unconsciousness the man shed tears just as Aera was already beside him.


Whether what happened to Aera's chest became her perceived tightness, her gaze co-dripped profusely with Aera noticing her. The longer he watched his chest the more pain he felt. Aera fell down with her already so sore chest not restrained.


Aera woke up opening her eyes with her shock. His chest felt uncomfortable especially with sweat that splashed on Aera's forehead.


"Hhhh..hhhh..."


Aera sat speechless in a daydream thinking about what had really happened, strangely when she woke up Aera could not remember the face of the man lying unconscious in her dream.


"Mmm, you're awake?"


Mba Ana opened the door and looked at Aera who was sitting with her blank look.


"Aera?"


Mba Ana is ignored, with Aera yet to realize her existence.


"Hey"


Mba Ana sat down in front of Aera. Watching Aera who was silent in her daydream.


"Mba Ana"


Spreading his gaze when he realized that Ana was already in front of him.


"Think of what to bengong gitu, mba sampe in cuekin"


"Sorry mba, Aera does not know if there is mba"


Aera with a smile.


"Yes no papa, you keep showering and eating"


"Mm-mm"


Aera smiled nodding.


Mba Ana smiled waking up from her seat.


"Oh yes Aera ko arrived already in the room mba?"


Tanya Aera remembered the last time she was with Azka.


"You on the nyender bike continue to sleep, Azka until bring the motor while holding you and until he is also the one who carried you in"


Clearly Ana before turning out.


Aera's cheeks turned red at Ana's explanation, smiling so widely as to show her rows of teeth.


"It's thought the cave has been very often ngerepotin him"


Aera muttered to herself.


It looks real existence of someone who is for her. such as maintaining and giving sincerity that exists. After being given a lot of kindness, it felt like Aera was replying with many things Azka had given and done for her. Moreover, his instincts that continue to ask him to give something to Azka not just return the favor but more than that.
