Naughty Child

This is (Not) A Good Bye

ISKHA NARRATION

I didn't expect Miss Vira to still love Mas Faiz. From the story he told. I'm going all wrong now. They should be together. I was just a hindrance to it. Faiz has been quiet lately. Is he upset too? I don't want to bother him. Maybe her burden is too much now. Especially in the near future the Final Exams. He must be concentrating on learning. 

I had persuaded him to return home, but his stance remained harsh. He doesn't want to. He no longer talks about his own family. I know how she feels about her family right now. That's enough for me to prove that he loves me so much. I'm insensitive, minder. Yes, especially to Mommy Vira and Faiz. It is clear that they both still love each other. It was like I was in the middle of them. I was like the gap between their relationship. 

Mas Faiz was silent again when today picked me up. He usually talks a lot. What really happened to him? I'm getting more upset too. Afraid that he would return to Vira. Afraid that he would leave me. When I was hugged, I held her tight. Mas Faiz, I don't want you to leave. 

We arrived at the cafe again. After parking the motorbike we entered. My bandmates are waiting. I greeted them and had a little chat before I started playing music. Mas Faiz is working again. He took his time working just to pick me up every day. This makes me happy too. But it's not good that every day is like this. But he forced. I can't do anything. Mas Faiz went straight to the table where there were customers. Take notes and deliver them immediately. Maybe this cafe added many visitors because there are people as famous as Mas Faiz working here. Unusual is indeed a conglomerate child who should live a good, luxurious life even choose a path like this. And it's all for me. 

That night something was different. Mas Faiz wanted to sing. 

"Would you please mas?" my many.

"I'm learning too. Been a month. You like it" he said.

"So this...."

"This I present to you. Maybe the manager wasn't angry that I was singing" he said. 

I laughed a little. 

"Come Mas Faiz, you can," Hani seemed to exclaim to him. 

He also started playing the keyboard. He turned it into a piano. Fals initially. But he then asked for a minute to mark the keyboard keys. Then he started again. This song.he can play the piano even though his hands are not flexible. And he started singing....Eh...japanese Song???

Takaku dono kurai tonde 

Haruka tooku no kimi ga mienaku naru no?

Hitomi soraseba raku ni naru no kamo shirenai 

Itsumo dokoka de mitsumete

Wasureru koto nante deki wa shinai kara 

Nasu supe mo naku, sora wo. 

Maru de kago no naka no chiisana tori no you ni 

Mado wo sagashite atemo, samayotte, iru.

Ima sugu ni aitai kimi ga suki dakara 

Koto ga kowakute nigetai kedo 

Mienai shigarami ni tsubasa 

Soredemo kimi wa kanashii hodo taisetsu.

*** English meaning ***

How high would I have to fly 

To lose sight of you, so far away?

If I turn my eyes away, I might feel better. 

But I want to always be looking at you from somewhere.

Because there's no way I could forget you. 

At my wits' end, I simply keep staring up at the sky. 

It's almost as if I were like a small bird inside a cage, 

Searching for the window, aimlessly wandering around.

Even though I want to run away because I'm scared of being hurt. 

If this unseen barrier around me should tear away my wings, 

Still, you are so precious to me that it makes me sad.

#Note: It's a song called Cage Bird, Ost DN Angel.

I don't know why my tears fell. Music.it.makes me cry. It seems he wants to separate from me. Mas Faiz.talk to me. What do you want to say??? 

After that, they were greeted by applause from everyone. He came to me who was crying. He wiped my tears. 

"Mas...mas wants to go?" my many.

"I want to go to Harvard. I got a scholarship there. I'm so heavy about to tell you this. That's why I kept quiet. I'm offering this song to you, so you can remember me. After the exam, I will go there. I'm afraid to tell you this you're sad" he said.

I hugged her. "Mas Faiz, he said that Faiz would accompany me. Why would Mas Faiz have to go?"

"It's not Iskha's farewell, I'm going to go back. I'll definitely be back, '" he said. 

I was crying in his arms. Not only that I held it tighter than usual. He probably knows how I feel right now. He rubbed my hair. It turned out that this was what kept him quiet. He wants to study abroad. Getting a scholarship at Harvard is not easy. Mas Faiz must have studied hard to get there. Frankly, I was too bad to think of him. He still loves me. 

"Promise you won't forget me!" I said.

"I promise, I'll fill my phone with your songs. So that I may remember you" he said. 

***

After the national final exam and graduation. That day also came. I drove Mas Faiz to the airport. No family members were driving. He did not tell them all. Mas Faiz was determined to take his own life. The driver was me, Erik Mas Faiz and Hani. 

"Good in there, bro, take care of yourself. It's a success" Erik said.

"Thank you Rik, you are my best friend" said Mas Faiz. They shake hands and embrace each other.

"Be careful" said Hani.

"Jaga Iskha huh?!" said. 

"Surely, I've considered him my brother" said Hani.

Then he stood in front of me. He put his forehead to my forehead. Our noses meet. 

"Mas Faiz, I will miss you very much" I said.

"Had to dong, you're my girlfriend, '" he said teasing me.

"Ihhhh.malah seduced," I muttered. "Seriously no."

He laughed, "Yes, I know. Yes already? I didn't leave here for long."

"Bentar mas, the old one," I said spoiled.

If you can, the scene in the AADC movie there is also dong. Kiss me mas. No need to be commanded anyway, he's already stuck his lips to my lips. We kissed, Very deep. It was as if I wanted to feel my kiss for the last time. After that, he rubbed my cheek.

"Part yourself well. I'll be right back. Frequent contacts, after all you already know my email," he said. "See you later."

I'm nodding. Mas Faiz then groped his suitcase. I'm sculpting. Just seeing his back drifting away. My shoulder was then nudged by Hani. 

"Sir, say something cake, what is it. Before he enters the terminal!" said. 

I also realized. I immediately ran towards him. 

"Mas Faiiizzz! I'll be waiting for you. I'll be waiting for you! Promise that! If you come home from America marry me! Marry me maas! I LOVE YOU!" my yelling.

He waved his hand at me. We separated for a long time.
