Notes Without Title

Secret Key

"So far what do you want?" ask Nea.

"Not many. Names, lights, screams of boys as many people, the sound of car brakes?" answer Ghai.

Nea immediately speculates, according to him Ghai may have been in a car accident. Soon Nea opens her phone and searches for a car accident, who knows Ghai is one of the topics of the news, although Nea hopes that no Ghai name will be listed there.

"What's wrong? Meet no?" ask Derren.

"Son, hold on first." said Nea.

The search screen shows a lot of news about traffic accidents themed hit-and-run. In fact, Nea was afraid to open one by one the web in her search online. Nea hesitated a few times but still opened everything one by one.

"But Gha, whose long name is it? Forgot me," said Nea.

"Worse lo Yes, time forgot Ghai's long name? Ghai aja hapal long name lo," said Derren.

"Then anyway? My long name is what's emang Gha?" ask Nea,

"*Lah*that's forgotten?" ask Ghai.

"And will ngetes" answered Nea with a rascality.

"Ladira Raina Anuhea Zulfa Tsuraya," Ghai replied with a smile at the end.

Somehow Nea blushed, maybe it was time Nea no longer lied to the heart. It will be admitted by him from now on that he has fallen for Ghai. Sad indeed, why among the hundreds or even thousands of humans on this earth Nea even fell for a ghost like Ghai.

"No-no! It's really bad, you know," said Derren.

"Well, I'm forgetful. It's been mending we continue this search first," said Nea.

"One clue from me, find out the past lo Nea," said Derren suddenly.

"Past time?" ask Nea.

Ghai turned his head to look at Derren with great astonishment. Ghai then looked at Nea shortly after getting a nervous response from Derren. Because every time Ghai asks for a clue about his past, Derren always avoids. Okay, Ghai won't fuss about it, but now Ghai is convinced, Derren is someone from his past.

"There are many things that you lupain. Try to remember that," Derren said.

"You mean I knew Ghai before?" ask Nea.

"That's not what I mean. Anyway it's the same thing I said," said Derren.

"My past, huh? Hmm, my past is nothing special Der. My best friend that's-that's doang, Arka sama Fai. Uh! Yaza also used to deket same me, just that. The association for me with Yaza away," Nea said.

"Related by association?" ask Derren.

"What the hell are you, Der? If you want to tell me don't take responsibility" Ghai protested.

Derren clucked in response. Something that Derren could not say was enough to frustrate Derren, moreover, the gaze of someone from the piercing passageway continued to make Derren feel burdened.

"Try searching the internet about a recent car accident" Derren orders Nea.

"I'm looking for it, but there are no results related to students being victims" said Nea.

"Where, try to see me," said Ghai who immediately approached Nea.

Funnily enough, Nea was able to sense Ghai's presence. He immediately dodged, then looked for the figure of Ghai who might be in front of him.

"Where is lo? I felt bad, suddenly there was a cold on my neck deck" Nea said.

"Here" replied Ghai.

"U-already ah, the search has come here," said Nea.

Ghai then chuckled softly, himself going away to take a sitting position on the piano chair. Derren looked back towards the hallway, someone there had already left. Nea who was staring at Derren immediately asked.

"Lo see what the hell? Don't tell me there's someone else here" asked Nea.

"No. How are you going to help me anyway?" ask Derren.

"What intention!" answer Nea.

"Don't you mind the research?" ask Derren.

"Whither from?! Look what time it is now," Nea said.

"Well, how many hours have we been trying to figure this out?" ask Derren.

"Where's ghai?" ask Nea.

"The child is again sitting on the piano chair" Derren replied.

Nea turned to look at the piano chair, then stood up to approach Ghai. Already planning to sit next to him suddenly Ghai's voice sounded.

"E-eh, hang on," said Ghai.

Nea then looked to the left right, trying to find Ghai. On the other side Ghai was blushing in embarrassment, his cheeks flushed red. In fact, Nea almost put her body on top of Ghai, not lingering, she immediately stood up from the chair. Derren who saw him chuckle then moved away not wanting to disturb the moment of the sweet reunion of the two, after all he had to find the figure earlier

"Eh, why?" ask Nea.

"No, sit down" Ghai said.

"Lo where the hell is it?" ask Nea.

"By your left, stand up again" replied Ghai.

"Well, how are you standing?" ask Nea.

"Nothing," Ghai replied briefly as he scratched his head.

"Why are you sitting there?" ask Ghai.

"Oh, it's okay. Can't you?" ask Nea.

"B-can you, anyway," replied Ghai.

Nea patted the chair next to her, telling Ghai to sit down. Ghai then stepped forward to take a sitting position next to Nea.

"Here, teach me to play the piano" Nea said.

"Kok suddenly?" ask Ghai.

"Don't know me too, want to suddenly be able to play the piano after stretched lo play," said Nea.

"What song do you want to play?" ask Ghai.

"Lo play klasikan ya?" ask Nea.

"Classic play, pop play, jazz play" Ghai said.

"The oath?! Usually piano players only follow 1 stream of music only!" nea.

"Many people play music on the piano more than one. Just because of my passion maybe? Eat me on a stamp as great as that, but it's really ordinary?" answer Ghai.

"Low to skyrocket lo can too. Great stamp! Hahahaha," answered Nea.

"Eh seriously," Ghai replied as he laughed softly.

"Take the most you can in" said Nea.

"Classic" replied Ghai.

"Oh yeah? What's title?" ask Ghai.

"Pathetique Sonata 2nd is Beethoven if not wrong," said Nea.

"Oh, okay. You play left? Still want to?" ask Ghai.

"It doesn't look like it does" Nea replied.

"Ngaco, hahaha. Let your fingers play, then remember yourself," said Ghai.

"Okay," answered Nea.

"If so stand up first" Ghai said.

"Well, what?" ask Nea.

"You're playing left hand, I'm right hand. Automatic position we taper dong," said Ghai.

"Oh yes. No need to stand up is also okay," said Nea.

Nea then shifted her butt to the left side and Ghai quickly stood up. The surprised Ghai immediately held his chest, while Nea smiled broadly while looking to his right, whereas Ghai was still on his left.

"Is he ready?" ask Nea.

"Well, good thing you're a girl" said Ghai who then walked over and immediately sat to the right of Nea.

"Don't you say don't interfere? You seem to be the type who doesn't learn from mistakes?"

"Funny huh? Someone who used to tie up friendships can be as easy as being an enemy in the future" Derren said with a slick smile.

"Come on, the more you interfere, the worse they get. I'm trying to save them as long as you know."

"Keep why should convoluted like this how? He said he wanted to save them both?" derren said with an angry tone.

"Don't he say it? This is the path Ghai chose. I'm not an author and an answer to all problems, I'm just the path He gives to Ghai."

"Stop, listen to the crap from your mouth to vomit" Derren said.

"We are both adults and not little ghosts anymore, we should have learned and understood how not to interfere, right?" Derren looked at the figure full of anger. On the other hand the smiling figure won.

"Wrong, we're both kids. Your nature and mine, have never changed before."

The figure lost his smile, his eyes staring at Derren. Derren who was ready to leave the room stopped when he was right in front of the door.

"Therefore, I will continue to interfere." Derren left the figure behind after speaking.

"I told you so, just look at the results of your stupidity."

"DERREN!!!"

Ghai put his finger on the piano keys, as did Nea. Both of them are ready to play the music with the title Pathetique Sonata 2nd. Not yet to start the game, again Ghai felt himself pulled back.

The hall room of the music arts department turned into a room with white shades, he was standing staring at a pair of small children with legs hanging down on the piano chair. They both smile while playing the piano. He saw the girl who chose the wrong tone, the game stopped and the boy tapped on the girl's forehead while scolding her.

Shortly thereafter Ghai returned in a snuggled position on the floor. Just a groan to Nea, he looks frantically looking for the figure of Ghai. Feeling unable to help anything, Nea immediately shouted to Derren.

"DERRAN!"

"Yes?" Derren gasped to see Ghai who was lying weakly on the floor.

"Gah!"

Shortly after Nea felt dizzy, several times Nea shook her head to relieve the dizziness that was present for a moment. After he felt lost Nea immediately ran to Derren.

"Why aren't you okay?" ask Nea.

"Gha, take a slow breath. Control emotions" Derren said.

Derren and Nea's voice shrank. Ghai is again drawn to a hill filled with flowers, the little hand outstretched for Ghai. Ghai grabbed him, then he stood up with the help of the pull of the owner of the small arm.

"Ghai, let's go there. Mama called, said she ate."

Ghai said, he walked with guidance from the little girl with a sweet smile whose face still looked faint. Ghai then saw a terrace, there are 4 people who are old that Ghai can guess as his parents and the girl.

"Ghai and Nea are satisfied? Eat first yes. Well, that's a necklace from Ghai worn on."

"Udah I lost, Ghai same Nea betrothed aja later fit already big."

"Heh, enak aja. Anakku harus milih pujaan hatinya sendiri nanti. Syukur-syukur kalau memang Nea jodohnya. Nanti kita besan, hahaha."

Ghai terkejut, dirinya baru sadar gadis kecil yang sedari tadi menggenggam hangat tangannya sembari menatap bingung pada ke-4 sosok berumur yang tengah berbincang hangat adalah sosok Nea kecil. Perlahan wajah gadis cilik itu semakin jelas terlihat.

"Ghai, kamu gak apa-apa? Mama! Ghai mimisan!!"

Kepala Ghai berdengung hingga akhirnya, ia kembali.

Nea memandang Derren dan lantai silih bergantian. Merasa kesal mengenai Ghai yang tak kunjung terlihat. Nea menggapai-gapai secara asal dan berhenti menyentuh pergelangan tangan Ghai.

"Gha, tenang ada gue sama Derren di sini," ujar Nea.

Ghai secara perlahan membaik, sakit yang baru saja menghampiri dada-nya telah menghilang. Napasnya terengah-engah. Dirinya menatap sendu tangan Nea juga dirinya yang tidak bisa dikatakan berpegangan juga tidak berpegangan. Ghai-pun akhirnya menarik tangan dirinya dari sentuhan tangan Nea.

"Maaf ngagetin. Padahal tadi mau main piano," ujar Ghai.

"Yang penting lo gak kenapa-napa dulu," ujar Nea yang berbicara namun tidak menatap Ghai karena salah arah.

"Lo mandang kaki Ghai Ne, orangnya ada di sini," ujar Derren.

"Oh, maaf. Gue ulangi, yang penting lo gak kenapa-napa dulu," ujar Nea.

Ghai terkekeh pelan menatap Nea, Derren kemudian tersenyum setelah memastikan Ghai sudah membaik. Tak lama kemudian Ghai berdiri dibantu oleh Derren.

"Ternyata karena itu," ujar Ghai tiba-tiba sembari menatap Nea.

"Kenapa?" tanya Nea.

"Kamu masih punya kalung itu?" tanya Ghai.

"Apa maksudnya?" tanya Nea.

Ghai kemudian menatap kalung yang memeluk manis leher Nea, bentuknya sama persis seperti yang dilihatnya di alam bawah sadar sebelumnya. Kalung kayu dengan perpaduan resin berwarna biru terang berbentuk kunci kecil mengalung di leher Nea. Dirinya tersenyum lalu menatap Nea.

"Nea, ini aku Ghai."
