Scratches of the Creator's ink are beautifully painted at the western end of the afternoon sky. The end of the throne of the sun. A place where the scorching light of the sun swapped with the friendly light of the moon and stars that filled the night sky.
Aletta remained in Andi's arms for some time, completing all the pain she had buried deep in her heart. The wound he thought had healed was still wide open, storing a very intense pain.
As for Andi, he just quietly let Aletta peel off all the pain that tormented him. He did not understand what kind of pain made Aletta's tears spill endlessly. His chest felt tight to see the always cheerful girl now looked weak in his arms.
Slowly Aletta released herself from Andi's embrace. A hug that made her comfortable, made her not want to leave the warm embrace that calmed her down. Aletta lowered her head. He felt himself very messed up. He was ashamed of what had just happened. Throughout his life, there were only 2 men who had hugged him tightly, Rizki and Andi. The hug of the two men managed to make him feel comfortable, make him calm and want to always be in the warm of his embrace.
Andi held onto both of Aletta's cheeks and raised her face slowly, bringing Aletta's gaze towards her. Aletta raised her face, but she did not dare to look at Andi.
"Ta, look at me" Andi said slowly. Her voice sounded very soft in Aletta's ears.
Aletta is still down.
"Ta, whatever problems you face, don't be dammed yourself, you have me now, I will be horrified whatever you complain," continued Andi with still holding both cheeks Aletta.
"Look me Ta, you can tell me what I am, I don't want you to frown on your own sadness," continued Andi.
Aletta brought her eyes to Andi. He looked into her beautiful eyes in front of him. His gaze was so reassuring, making Aletta want to have the owner of those beautiful eyes. But that's impossible. His heart was still wounded, his heart still held a speck of taste in his first love. The first love that had betrayed him still left beauty and happiness in his heart, even if only a speck.
Andi smiled and wiped the remaining tears that drenched Aletta's cheeks.
"I'll be here with you" Andi said softly.
Aletta nodded.
Andi got up and took a glass of water from the table next to her and gave it to Aletta.
"Drink first" Andi said with the glass closer to Aletta's lips.
Aletta was still silent by looking at Andi.
"Your hands should not be crushed first, pamali drank with his left hand!" said Andi.
Aletta smiled and drank water from the glass Andi was holding.
Andi sat back down and gently rubbed Aletta's hair.
"Is there anything you want to tell me?" ask Andi.
Aletta shakes.
"Your wounds why are they bleeding again?"
Aletta was still silent, her tears filling both corners of her eyes. He recalled his meeting with Rizki a while ago.
"Is that really painful?" asked Andi who saw Aletta's tears had been welled up.
Aletta nodded slowly.
"You must be more careful, do not move your right hand first, follow the words of the Doctor, do not argue!"
Aletta nodded. Of course, he was crying not because of the pain in his arm, but rather the wound that was breaking his heart.
Andi exhaled slowly. He was frustrated to see Aletta who was just silent, nodding and shaking silently.
Biiipp Biiipp Biiipp
Andi's phone is ringing, there's a message from Dini.
Damn it!
Andi forgot if he went to the hospital with Dini earlier. He was so panicked and worried about Aletta's condition that he ran away from Dini. I don't know how long he hugged Aletta until he completely forgot about Dini.
Ndi, I have a bad business, so I go back first, next time I go there again - fill in the chat Dini-Dini
"sorry Din" Andi said in his heart.
Aletta noticed Andi's changed face, she wanted to ask but she paused. His mouth was reluctant to open.
Andi put the phone back in her pants pocket after replying to Dini's message.
"You want fruit?" ask Andi.
Aletta shook her head, but Andi took the apple on the table and peeled it and cut it off and fed it to Aletta.
Aletta opened her mouth to receive the apple cut from Andi's hand, but quickly Andi pulled back her hand which was holding the apple piece and ate it herself.
Aletta held back her smile in annoyance, while Andi chuckled at Aletta who was fooled by her.
"Said was not willing," said Andi meledek.
Aletta put on her face and took her eyes off Andi.
"Nih," Andi said while giving another piece of apple to Aletta.
Aletta simply shook her head while still turning her face away from Andi.
"I don't think you can snack" Andi said and sat on Aletta's bed.
Aletta was still silent regardless of Andi.
"I think I should know you more" Andi continued.
"know further? she mean? paca.
"You mean?" ask Aletta.
"Yes know you better, so you have to tell me everything the same, I'm ready to be the place where you share your sadness or happiness, so don't mind your own problems!"
Aletta smiled slightly and nodded.
Andi again put the apple in her hand on Aletta. After 1 apple runs out, Andi gives the comic she just bought with Dini to Aletta.
"Conan's Comic?"
Andi nodded.
"I don't know what you like, just to get rid of your boredom here, there's no harm in reading this comic!"
Aletta was silent for a while as she turned the comic in her hand, her facial features looking uninspired.
"Don't you like Ta?" ask Andi.
Aletta was still silent and lowered her head in lethargy.
"Yeah, I really don't know what you like, if you don't like papa, I bring it back, tomorrow I buy what you like," said Andi who saw the look of disappointment on Aletta's face.
Aletta brought her gaze towards Andi and smiled.
"I like it, I like it!" aletta said with a smile to decorate her beautiful face.
Now the cloud on his face is gone. Andi hopes that the beautiful face in front of her will always show a cheerful smile as bright as the sun in summer.
"Basic, make me surprised, I think you don't like it" Andi replied by random shuffling Aletta's hair.
"Like it, I already have some series and this one I don't have yet" explained Aletta who looked excited.
Not felt, it was late. Aletta forces Andi to return home.
"You sure?" andi asked reassuringly.
"Sure, go home, come back here tomorrow!"
"Well, if so, I'll go back, you take good care of yourself, don't be naughty!"
"Ready Doctor!"
Andipun got out of Aletta's room and went back to his boarding house.
**
The morning has come, the sun is ready to give its warmth to the world. Dini and Andi immediately left for campus after breakfast.
"Nico hasn't come back yet?" ask Andi to Dini.
"Yet, from yesterday it was still quiet room," replied Dini.
"Oh yeah, where were you yesterday from the hospital?"
"Mmmm... There are secrets!"
Dini nodded. He lied, because in fact he went straight back to the boarding house yesterday.
After arriving at the college, they immediately split up. Andi goes into the library and Dini leaves with Cika.
"Not the same Dimas anymore?" ask Cika.
Dini shakes.
"Are you not yet?" ask Cika curiously.
Dini simply answered Cika's question with a nod of her head.
They immediately entered their room. Shortly thereafter Dimas came and sat down beside Dini. Dimas pulled the phone out of his pants pocket and sent a message to Dini.
I'll be anther later, right?
Dini who knew her phone was vibrating immediately picked up her phone and read the message from Dimas. He smiled and immediately replied to the message.
How's anita?
Don't be cared for!
Evil you!
For your sake (emot kiss)
Dini held back her smile reading the message from Dimas, making Cika curious.
"Why smile at your own smile?" ask Cika.
"Eh, no, no papa," replied Dini by trying to hide her smile.
Dimas sent a message back to Dini.
I want to love you simply, in a word that wood never speaks to fire that makes it ash. I want to love you simply, with a signal that the clouds can't deliver to the rain that makes it go away (emot of heart)
Dini did not reply, Dimas sent him a message.
A poem I wrote from my heart
He could not help but smile on his lips. The poem was written by the famous poet of the country, Sapardi Djoko Damono.
Dear Mr. Dimas, do not tell me that you are not a poem of your creation
Dimas chuckled reading a reply from Dini. He felt ridiculous for not succeeding in giving his appeal to Dini.
Cika noticed that. He saw Dini who was busy with his phone and occasionally looked a small smile. Beside Dini there is Dimas who is also busy with his phone and looks to laugh a little.
"Okay fix, you guys are dating diem!" cika said giving conclusions from the results of his observations.
"Who?" ask Dini.
"You're the same Dimas, you can lie to people Din, but you can't lie to me" explained Cika.
"I didn't lie to you, really!"
"It's okay Din, no papa you don't want to be honest, besides Dimas also may not like me hahaha......."
"You know what you think is wrong!"
Cika just smiled a little and was still teased Early.
After all the campus activities are completed, Dini and Dimas walk to the parking lot. They'll be doing chores at Dimas' apartment. After giving some snacks and drinks, they immediately headed to the Dimas aparment.
Arriving at Dimas' apartment, they immediately pulled out many books they had prepared to do the task. Sometimes they joke and laugh in the middle of a task that is waiting to be completed.
Shortly thereafter, an uninvited guest arrived.
"Anita?" dini asked when she heard Dimas' apartment bell ringing.
Dimas nodded for sure.
"Open it!"
"No papa?"
"No papa, he is your beloved fiancee" replied Dini sarcasm.
"Andini,"
"Yes, papa, I'm here to do the job, let him in!"
"You sure?"
"More Dimas, do you want me to open the door?"
"Don't, okay I open the door!"
Even though he opened the door and sure enough, Anita was already standing in front of the door with a look of annoyance.
"It's really not him!" anita said and just walked in.
Early who was doing her job did not care about Anita who saw her with a terrible look.
"Hi Nit!" saya Dini without looking at Anita.
"What are you doing here? you want....."
"Duty, don't you see?"
"Why should it be here? is there no other place?"
"Snake up, it's over!"
Anita is getting anxious to slap and grab Dini right then and there.
"Drink Nit!" said Dini while thrusting a bottle of drink at Anita, but Anita immediately brushed aside Dini's hand violently, making the bottle fall.
"Why are you so rude!" dimas told Anita.
"I don't like you with him, me........"
"I'm the same Andini tenen one campus Anita, we are one faculty and we are again working together, is that wrong?"
"Why should it be here? why don't......"
"Well, if I'm the same as Andini out, you're here, how?"
"No, that's not what I mean, I just......"
"Nit, as a good fiance you should support Dimas dong, love the spirit instead of even kayak gini!" say Dini relaxed.
"Shut your mouth Din, you cheap girl!"
"About between us who is the one who's the one who's the one who owns people? who is cheap? did you forget, any of us want to be a time killer on the hill, who do you think we are? me or you?" reply Early by showing her index finger right in front of Anita's eyes.
Anita just silently held back the vexation in her chest.
While Dini immediately packed the goods.
"I'm done Dim, we'll go tomorrow, I'll go home!" say Early on Dimas.
"I'm anterin!"
"No need, you just your fiancee, she is far away from here cook you stay AGAIN" said Dini by emphasizing the word "again".
Early and then get out and leave Dimas' apartment.

The sky that afternoon seemed cloudy, shifting the sunlight that had not yet reached the contest. The lights of the highway lights started even though the night had not yet arrived. Its brilliance was able to shine a corner of the darkness of the city. A girl was sitting on a mini market bench not far from the apartment she had just visited. A thin gust of wind caressed his long hair. Sometimes he seemed to flick his hair, put it behind his ears. He just stayed there, his hand holding a bottle of chocolate that he had drunk half. Not infrequently he smiled a little when both his eyes looked around him. He realized his world looked beautiful.
He saw a young couple who looked romantic, he also saw girls his age who were chatting full of laughter with his friends. They all looked happy, like there was no burden in their lives.
When the rain began to fall, the drops began to wet every corner of the city. It did not take long, the droplet was getting faster making Dini immediately rise from his seat in a hurry to immediately enter the mini market. Damn, he hit someone. Lucky the man was swiftly supporting Dini's body so that Dini did not fall. He did not fall, but his body was wet. His heart was pounding, his chest felt tight.
"Here!" call the man surprised when he sees the girl in front of him is Dini.
Haven't had time to say a word before, he had fainted. The rain always makes him weak.
