Not the Wrong Destiny

Lanterns

Under the light of the full moon, a pair of human children who are being struck by romance, feel the world is only theirs, enjoy the atmosphere of martyrdom created in dimness.

Although slowly the light began to dim due to the mega-covered, precisely the intimacy between the two is increasingly visible.

Darkness is not a fear, but a beauty that cannot be felt by normal humans in general. Yes, that's love, it's blind. Black she thinks white.

As long as we are with the people we love, whatever the situation, wherever it is, it will always feel happy.

Bima and Nindi, they are far from the bustle of the city. High-rise beaches, beautiful white sand, covered with sky and stars.

Both of them sat on the sand facing directly towards the beach, staring at the rock far across there, so sturdy even though the big waves constantly hit it.

Nindi wants the love between herself and sister Bima to be as solid and as strong as that rock. Even though he knew, just as much as we hid the carcass, the smell would definitely be smelled as well. And one day the big lie that he has been hiding will certainly be exposed, whether it is by the way he will tell all, or even there are events beyond his expectations that will dismantle his original identity.

I don't know, Nindi just wants to be enjoying her friendship with sister Bima now, without Luis or Clarissa who always disturb the peace of their lives.

"Is the air too cold?" Ask Bima.

"No, how do I get cold try? From earlier brother Bima hugged me continue this rich." Nindi replied with a smile in Bima's arms.

Yes, since sitting on the sand, Bima has not released Nindi from his embrace.

"I'm doing this because I'm afraid you'll get cold later. So you don't protest!" Bima drew Nindi deeper into her arms. Nindi can only surrender, enjoying every caress from Bima's brother who can always make him fly.

"Sister!" Nindi.

"Yes?" Sahut Bima's.

"If I make a terrible and fatal mistake, will you forgive me?" Ask Nindi later.

"Of course, I'll always forgive whatever your faults are, and I'll try to guide you to not make any more mistakes." Answer Bima.

Nindi smiled bitterly, okay brother Bima can talk like that now. But what later if all the secrets are revealed, what brother Bima will still say like that? Nindi hoped so. Hope so.

Nindi further tightened her hands hugging Bima's body.

"Hey Bima! I was looking for you from earlier. You are here!" Someone came suddenly from the south.

Bima did not relax her embrace from Nindi at all, she looked relaxed and ordinary, not a bit embarrassed to have been caught by the man dating.

"What's wrong?" With a flat Bima asked.

But Nindi here who was embarrassed, he pinched Bima's stomach. Bima flinched, completely unaffected got an indirect reprimand from Nindi.

"The way to fly the lanterns will begin. Let's go there now! You're happy to be in a cold, dark place like this." Said one of Bima's friends.

"Who said it was cold and dark? It's so bright and bustling here because it emits a ray of warmth and beauty." Bima's lips landed right at the head of Nindi.

Holy hooch!

Bima's big brother was seen massaging his temple while turning his face away, reluctant to see the scene that made his heart feel hot. Clearly, his single soul was instantly thrashing.

"Of course, I know you're newlyweds. But don't heat me up like that either." Said later.

"All right, let's go over there. Aren't you eager to see and fly the lantern, She?" This time Bima wants to release Nindi as well.

"Yes, I can't wait. It must be great." With enthusiasm Nindi said.

Then they moved from their seats, leaving white sand that had been a beautiful witness of dating after the wedding.

***

It turns out that what his friend Bima said was true, everyone had gathered on the coast, frenetic was inevitable.

Seen happiness on their faces, most here come in pairs. But Nindi did not see the whereabouts of her friend Bima who was there.

"Not one of my sister's friends?" Ask Nindi.

"He didn't have a partner, so he was just a spectator there." Bima flicked her shoulders far to the edge of the sand. Nindi followed the direction of his view, and sure enough, his friend Bima who was gathered with some men who allegedly singlo as well.

"Don't think of him, all you can think of is me, She!" Bima Say.

Wait a minute, so this is the story Bima is jealous so? Why is his face so funny? Nindi tried to hold back her laughter from exploding, after all she had to appreciate Brother Bima, right? By showing such a meaningful attitude, Bima really loves her and wants to have only herself in Nindi's heart and mind.

All righty! Nindi understands now.

"Yes brother. Oh yeah, where's our lantern?" Nindi diverts the conversation .

Bima then gave the lantern he had brought to Nindi. Nindi saw that the people around her had started lighting their respective lanterns, according to the direction of the committee. Of course Nindi did not want to miss, he also told Bima to light a gas match to be able to fly the lantern.

"Open the lantern!" Seru kak Bima's.

"Well, that's hard too!" Nindi looks troubled.

"Slow down She!" Bima approached and helped him, opened it slowly and then put a wire on the bottom of the lantern.

"Oh yeah, just found out about me." Nindi.

"You've never flown a lantern before?" Ask brother Bima. Nindi just shook her head faintly.

"So, Brother Bima ever?" Nindi bslik asked.

"Any birthday celebration, the company must always hold a lantern festival like this. Just the location is different." Answer Bima. Nindi nodded her head in a sign she understood.

"How'd it go?" Ask Nindi foolishly.

"Wear fire. You hold this, I'll light the gas match!"

Nindi quickly did what Bima told her to do. He watched closely as Bima burned the wick with a gas lighter. As the seconds of the lantern expanded slowly, before finally the lantern filled the air completely. Nindi felt the lanterns were much lighter than before.

Nindi was so amazed by the dressings presented before her eyes, the beach lips immediately became bright because of the many hotspots coming from the lanterns.

Bima also held onto the lantern that Nindi was holding, she also wanted to feel the warmth and beauty of the lantern before she finally had to go to the sky.

"Are you ready?" Ask Bima.

"Udah." Nindi replied while nodding.

Without them throwing, the lantern slowly began to move, but there was no wind here. Like a magic. So foolishly Nindi thought.

Likewise with other participants, they began to release lanterns belonging to each. A mellow song was played, making the atmosphere tonight more syahdu and khusyu.

Nindi's lips expand, only once in her lifetime feel a sense of peace when releasing something. The smiles in each person accompanied the lanterns that flew gently towards the clear sky.

Now, the sky above the beach is full of beautiful light, making the full night more perfect. Every eye seemed unwilling to blink to enjoy its beauty.

What a great moment for Nindi. Can he now ask God for hope? Then he began to close his eyes, even as his eyes were blown away by the light from the lantern he could still see clearly.

'Lord, please don't take this happiness back from my life.' Yeah, it's just that simple.

Bima smiled as she saw both of Sheerin's eyelids closed. What else does he want in this life? He has everything, isn't his life perfect?

'Make her heart always happy with me, so she never thinks of leaving me. I can't deny that losing her is the scariest thing in my life.'

Bima turned, not at all turning her eyes away from Nindi's face. Until finally the pair of eyes opened again.

"Did you just make a wish?" Ask Bima.

"Heem." Answer Nindi steadily.

"What are you asking for?" Ask Bima again.

"There's. Secret." Answer Nindi sok cute.

"Let me guess, surely you've just asked to get a lot of kids out of me. Aye, right?" Bima deliberately brought her lips closer to Nindi's ears at the end of her sentence.

"What's? No, I'm not asking for that." Nindi's face instantly met red, she was completely embarrassed. How could the stiff brother Bima think up to that direction?

Bima chuckled slightly when she saw the reaction on Sheerin's face, it seemed that she objected to Bima's words earlier.

"Yes, come on!" Bima flanking Nindi's arm.

"Where else are we going?" Ask Nindi.

"We're gonna make a lot of kids!" Answer Bima.

"Huh?" Nindi's eyes were perfectly rounded. He hasn't prepared himself for that one. Then how could he dodge and dodge Bima's brother now?

***

The night is getting late, but Sheerin is still busy replying to chats from Levin. The man was completely dissatisfied, having made a video call for over two hours, still now sent him a chat message.

Brak!

Suddenly the door of his house was opened violently by someone. Sheerin who was sitting relaxed in the middle room spontaneously jumped in shock, almost the phone that was held by him fell.

It turns out that the troublemaker is Yuvi's sister who just returned home from the day shift.

"Sir Yuvi, what's the matter?" Sheerin reprimands Yuvi who is busy locking the door quickly.

Instead of answering, Yuvi instead ignored Sheerin and walked towards their room. Sheerin's gaze continued to follow Yuvi's steps until the woman stopped right in front of the room, like something strange, her brother Nindi's face looked as if it was all crying.

Suddenly the door was knocked violently and impatiently by someone out there. Sheerin's gaze turned towards the door.

"Don't open it, just let him." Yuvi exclaimed with her voice of her gibberish. Sheerin turned towards Yuvi, then Yuvi immediately went into the room. Sheerin's forehead shrinks. 'What the hell is this really?'

"Vi, please open the door Vi! We need to talk seriously! Vi!" There was a scream accompanied by a rough knock on the door.

Sheerin recognized the voice. Quickly he moved and began to peek out from behind the curtains.

"Nindi, please open the door!" When realizing Nindi's presence, someone turned banging on the window glass.

"God! Bang Doni's? What's there?" Ask Sheerin.

"Open the door, I'll explain." Reply to someone who turns out to be Doni, Yuvi's eternal lover.

"But Yuvi's sister said not to open it."

"Do please Nin, you have to solve the problem tonight." A look of despair was displayed in front of Sheerin. Making Sheerin so confused, he bit his lower lip. So now he has to listen to whose words? Don't open the door or open it for Doni?
