FLASHBACKS
Febri pulls Arkan's hand, Febri goes to Arkan's house. His smile expands, today he will perform in his school pension. Arkan has promised to see his dance show. Coincidentally that day Arkan was off, Febri was already impatient to show his ability to Arkan.
Febri got out of the car, he was escorted by his driver, but Febri stared confusedly at Arkan who was talking to his friends. The first time Febri saw someone else with Arkan other than himself. Febri approached Arkan excitedly, even he immediately hugged Arkan from behind.
Arkan gasped in shock at the embrace of someone he was very familiar with. A little boy who has been gracing his life lately. Arkan asks his friend for a minute, he wants to talk to Febri. His friend stared at the strange Arkan who was over-interacting with the SD kid. Arkan turned his body towards Febri, then aligned his height with Febri.
"Why is Febri here so early in the morning?" ask Arkan.
Febri pouted, surely Arkan forgot his promise to watch his first performance. "Sir Arka forgot, if today you want to watch Febri." Febri.
Arkan gulped his saliva, he patted it unconsciously. How could he forget his promise with Febri, and unfortunately he had agreed to invite his friend to climb to the mountain lawu. Arkan is glued, he stares at his friend for a moment. He rarely spends time with his friends. If he broke his promise, his friends would be disappointed. After all Febri was a child, Arkan would persuade Febri if he could not come.
"Febri forgive brother well, sister can not come. Sister there's the same show sister's friends," Arkan stroked Febri's hair dear.
"Sister can't come watch Febri," Arkan shook his head.
"Bad brother," cried Febri to Arkan for not keeping his promise.
Febri pouted, her tears flowing. He did not expect Arkan would not attend his first show. He wants Arkan to watch it, however Arkan is his prince who has helped him, when he has no friends. But now that Arkan has left, no one wants to be friends with him anymore. Febri cries and runs away from Arkan. He hated Arkan. Arkan no longer wants to be with her.
"Sister is no longer affectionate with Febri," isak Febri because Arkan forgot him. Arkan doesn't want to be with her anymore.
"Febri hates Arka's sister." Febri said sadly mixed with anger. The little girl looked at Arkan hatefully. He doesn't like being lied to like this. He hates lying.
Arkan gasped in shock at that, he tried to chase after Febri. He feels guilty, he does not care about the gaze of his friends who are confused how a High School (Upper High School) has a relationship with an Elementary School (Elementary School). Arkan ran after Febri who ran out of his yard.
Febri did not stop his run, he continued to run even to the highway. Febri ignored Arkan's screams, he no longer wanted to see Arkan. Febri did not even realize there was a car speeding towards him. Arkan, who was still far away from Febri, screamed hysterically.
"FEBRI WATCH!!!!" Shouted Arkan loudly because he had not been able to catch up to the little Febri.
"PEBRIAN..."
But all too late, the car hit Febri's little body until the girl bounced off the highway. Unknowingly Arkan immediately ran quickly after Febri while shouting to save the little girl.
"Febri wake up, forgive brother." Isak Arkan, he feels guilty. He did not want to lose Febri. It's all his fault. Because Febri is wretched like this. If only he had not forgotten his promises with Febri surely this would not have happened. He regretted with regret.
"Sister's wrong, it shouldn't be like this." Arkan immediately carried Febri and took him to the hospital. Her eyes sorely held back tears, this was all her fault she should not have been selfish to Febri cancelling his promise unilaterally without thinking about the feelings of this little boy. Stupid Arkan in the heart. He had made this little girl hurt because of her and Arkan would not be able to forgive himself if anything happened to this little girl. Arkan would hate himself if anything happened to Febri. He could not imagine it if it really happened to himself. Arkan was crying in a wail. His heart also bled to see the state of Febri who was injured in front of him.
*****
Febri was carried away from his sleep, he dreamed of it. Febri set his breath, Febri's dream felt it was very real. But why should he be when he was a child, then who was Kak Arka in his dream. Then he turned to look beside him there was Arkan who hugged him tightly as if he did not want to lose. Febri frowned when he realized he was wearing nothing under the blanket that covered his body.
Suddenly Febri's cheeks meet, he forgets that last night he gave himself up to Arkan. He gave his duties as wife to Arkan. The two of them had a husband and wife relationship, after all he was also married to Arkan so according to him it does not matter, especially Arkan touch it gently. Febri did not regret giving her virginity to her husband. Because he believes he has fallen in love with Arkan. Falling in love with her tenderness and also patience facing her.
It was just that his dream just now disturbed his calmness. Why should he dream like that, after his love statement last night. Febri's heart is agitated. He felt that the figure of the man in his dream was Arkan. The man in her dream was Arkan.
If it's Arkan means the man never made his accident. But that can't be the truth. Febri shook his head, he tried to close his eyes and then fell asleep again. Although her mother once told her that Arkan was her childhood friend, Febri still could not afford her. Maybe it was just a dream, after all he never felt like he had an accident like that. But if that's true, Febri doesn't know what to do, whether he should be angry and resentful of Arkan because Febri has fallen for Arkan, he's afraid of losing Arkan in his life.
Febri tried to close his eyes but was unable to. Febri is curious about his dream, is it as good as he asks Arkan? Febri thinks he should talk about this to Arkan tomorrow. He should know what really happened. And why he can't remember what his childhood was like.
