"Lo's dutiful?" asked Nea whose focus was diverted from the laptop so to Ghai by stealing a glance.
"Udahlah, do snack for a long time, will be tired himself," replied Ghai who then began to play piano keys, just playing in the tone C to G has made Nea drugged to the charm of Ghai.
Nea then stepped closer towards Ghai leaving her laptop. Ghai, whose focus was still on the piano, began to turn towards Nea as she began to take a seat beside Ghai.
"Ghai, I'm curious about the same answer to my question on this one," Nea said suddenly.
"What questions?"
"If for example you were the first person to discover the piano, what would be your motivation for it?"
"What the hell? You're not clear, why?"
"Jawab aja.. I wonder if I'm."
"Hmm, why? Maybe because that's how I get my feelings out to the public?"
"Huh? Why do you think that?"
"You ask my opinion, yes that's my answer, so I'm free to answer what. Aren't you?" ghai said as he raised both his hands.
"This is the same as me. Bener continue. Then why do you feel your feelings through the piano? If you can talk directly, right?" asked Nea curiously.
"Because in my opinion, revealing it is as difficult as you might think of salt as pepper. There have been many incidents of my own stupidity about the difficulty of speaking honestly about feelings that end up miris, stupidly I am still stuck in that limit. Boundaries that I made myself, and so comfortable I do not know how to break it, even about the intention to break the limit is still ambiguous in my heart, satisfied?" ghai asked after answering Nea's question in detail.
Nea fell silent, thinking continuously about Ghai's answer. To him, conveying the feeling through the beautiful tone was a bit difficult, or was it possible from Nea alone? Nea doesn't know.
"You'll know about that. Music is beautiful, it feels like you can go somewhere fantasy is not real, you can get dissolved in it until you feel yourself, 'oh, I'm already on the threshold of where, where, as much as I like music, that's what I used to do."
Nea was still listening to Ghai's words, Ghai's eyes glared at the moon that was now beginning to appear. Nea was struck once again by the good looks of Abhiyoga Ghaitsa Mahawira.
"The music is full of mystery, it feels strange. Funny thing is, you will not be able to bring a song to make people who watch cry if for example you can not animate the song you want to bring. Therefore, I say music is a form of conveying my feelings to the public. One moment."
Nea's gaze that had begun to focus downward returned to Ghai's face. The gaze of the two eyes intertwined, Ghai then smiled.
"One day you will understand the reason behind my answer" Ghai suddenly disappeared.
"DERREN!! DERREN!! GHAI'S MISSING!"
Nea panicked half-dead, night was the time for Ghai to be seen by Nea, but what was this? Suddenly Ghai disappears in the middle of a long conversation. Nea ran looking for Derren who had gone somewhere. Nea stopped in a room with the inscription 'Biola Club', the room seems rarely visited because it looks dusty.
Nea was not aware that there was a banner that read 'It is forbidden to visit at 4 pm and below!'. Nea did not care that he kept stepping, but, a voice awaited his steps.
"Where can I?"
"Didn't you find the old one? Say hello to each other dong! How the hell?"
Nea was intending to eavesdrop, the only voice Nea knew, it was Derren, a little ghost she had been looking for. Nea tried to peek through the small window slit. Nea could see Derren there standing still petrified with a surprised look instead of playing. Darling, Derren's interlocutor is standing on the opposite side of the glass that Nea can peek at from the outside.
"What's your goal?!"
"What if we change the rules?"
"You want what else?!!"
"It feels like the dismantling of secrets in this way is long enough and makes you and others suffer from anxiety to solve the problem right? I've found a way anyway."
"You can get out."
"Huh?"
"You can get out of this place..."
Nea widened her eyes, Derren showed a displeased expression. If he could change the rules like that, what would it mean that he was someone who created this endless puzzle game?
"You can help solve the mystery, you can spend the rest of the time with the togetherness that once had been snatched by me."
"What payday? Why are the rules suddenly changed?!"
"I told you already. I found a way."
"What's the pay?!" ask Derren gomasy.
"Time."
"What do you mean?"
"Solve everything by the end of January, will you?"
"You crazy?! I can solve everything in this very second if you don't make stupid rules that limit the movements of me, Yaza, and Balqis."
"OK, okay. If so I give you more time, the pattern you already know? If so, that pattern I changed to be earlier but still in the same month."
"When?"
"April 4, 2019, everything must be solved. If you're late, the consequences are you know exactly what it is."
Suddenly the figure with a heavy voice disappeared somewhere, there was Derren inside there with a girl with hair on the braid one to the back, her dress was a pure white dress, her face could be said to be sweet, but her eyes looked blank.
"Sorry, it's all because of me."
Derren gave a sad look, as if forgetting about Ghai's business that had suddenly disappeared, Nea was still busy listening to what was happening inside there. Derren walked closer to the girl, his hands moved about to stroke the top of the sweet girl's head but the snuffling was done.
"I'm afraid I'm failing again this time. I fear that Ghai will disappear again like you who went from the same 4-dimensional existence as Nea, Arka, Fai, Yaza, and Balqis. I'm scared."
Nea's heart seemed to be pierced by an invisible dagger, why did she feel so troubled hearing Derren so seriously. Derren looked back at the sweet girl with that blank look.
"Our world is terrible, screaming without hearing those dear ones, present beside those who are not even able to see and realize our presence. It was like living as dust, along with them but invisible and feared his presence was also erased his existence."
Nea cried, could not Nea denied, the feeling of an old friend as if present in his mind at this time. Nea really wanted to hug Derren at a time like this. Derren was crying, invisible apparently because of the position of Derren who turned his back to Nea, but Nea could see his sobbing back.
"I beg Renren, help me, tell me how to get out? The way out of the demon circle."
Nea widened her eyes, her hands moved spontaneously closing her gaping mouth. Renren's? So, the 2nd victim is Renren? The little girl in the little photo whose presence had been questioned?
So, what is the vicious circle that Derren means? Does that mean that Nea, including her friends, had been waiting for their turn to arrive? To assemble in lifeless condition in a dimension different from his current dimension.
