The Past Scrap

"Patients have recently experienced cardiac arrest, the general term cardiac arrest. The factors themselves there are various but, in the condition of Nak Ghai there is a possibility that the cause is electrolyte disturbances or sudden shock."

The doctor's account bears the fruit of a cry from an elderly woman. His partner was seen inciting his wife.

"Possible for that to happen again what percentage of the dock?" ask the husband.

"This can happen at any time, considering that Nak Ghai who has been lying there for almost 1 year this is quite natural" replied the doctor.

"Ghai can get up again Doc?" ask the wife.

"Let's pray for the best for Nak Ghai sir, ma'am" replied the doctor.

Ghai who heard the doctor's dialogue with the couple bowed his head deeply. Ghai was sure that the couple were his parents.

"Dear baby, don't cry. Ghai is strong, he can" said the husband while stroking his wife's shoulders gently.

Just about to step closer, Ghai's body ached. Like wanting to get a new memory but, never taken away to his new moment. Ghai fell down, his eyes began to water until suddenly, he said,

"GAI!" Nea ran over to Ghai who was again seen in his original place.

"Where was that?!"

All hysterical, afraid Ghai why-not. Ghai who was asked was silent, his mind was raging between telling him where he was from or just being silent as if there was nothing.

"Ghi?" ask Nea again.

The summoned Ghai finally smiled, a few seconds later he looked at his 2 hands that no longer looked transparent. Ghai thought he didn't want to ruin the end of the year. So, he thought this matter could be delayed and informed later by him.

"Gee! I panicked and died half!" derren said approaching.

"I'm sorry, I also don't know why suddenly it's like that" Ghai said.

"Yes, let's hope! His ghai is also okay" said Arka who is actually still equally nervous, do not blame the Ark who looks unconcerned. He only remembered what Ghai said last night.

"Za, you brought the camera, right?" ask Arka.

"Huh-huh?" ask Yaza.

"Camera" Arka said as she opened her eyes to signal not to look nervous at Yaza.

"O-oh! Tug around. Nih." Yaza gives Arka his camera.

"Yuk photos! It's a good place!" arka.

Ghai then stood up, walking towards Arka. The steps followed Nea and the others.

"Lo fits tau to be your cameraman! Later if you have been successful, make your side-work camera! I have noticed from the beginning that I was very interested in photography, videography, and cinematography" said Ghai.

"Well, you know where I'm interested in it?!" tanya Arka enthusiastically.

"I'm telling you so" replied Ghai.

"Not wrong! I like bro!" arka said proudly.

"Yes continuein. It is quite possible to make money from there" said Ghai.

"Entarlah, I developed first. My results are not so good" said Arka.

"Low to skyrocket what is it?!" Yaza.

"Hehe."

Satisfied to take the moment there, they finally decided to return to the villa. The moon is starting to show itself.

***

A lot has happened in the last few days. Their goal of spending time together really made a memory of their own. Today is the night of the new year, all gathered in Nea's backyard. Each of them carried fireworks in his hands.

"Down this countdown!" Yaza.

"Yes, how come there's more to help, no Qis?" asked Fai to Balqis who had been busy burning meat and its appendages.

"Udahan first Qis! This is the new year's retreat!" nea said enthusiastically.

Balqis smiled, she then stopped her activities and walked over to Nea. Nea stared fixedly at her favorite pink watch.

"3, 2, 1, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!"

With 45, Yaza lit the largest fireworks in his hand and pointed them up into the sky. Everyone laughed, the cold night passed by the warmth created through the 7 people together there.

Forgetting for a moment the tightness that haunted them lately, it was not that bad. In fact, it felt like the Bayun allowed their nights to feel cool. The light created both from fireworks and garden lights on that night, really feels fun and soothing.

"Wohoo!!"

Nea is happy, Ghai is happy, Derren is happy, everyone is happy. Being able to go back through a moment of togetherness like this makes them grateful for who is up there. Let this pleasure come for a moment. Do not, for a moment, if it could be until the end of time recorded in their life history, they hope this happiness will always be written eternally there. From the beginning of the story of their lives, to the conclusion of the story.

They hope, time stops, they hope, this is not a dream. They hope this will last forever. They hope, the 2 people who were there are really still alive.

"Welcome to 2019! Starting this year, I'm going to make a promise to myself. O Nea in 2019, let's try harder than ever, stop being hurt, and I hope, whatever happens in the future, whether bad or good, I want you to be able to accept all of that with pleasure" Nea said as she looked at Ghai with a smile.

"Promise for myself this year, I hope Arka in the future can be a person who is not afraid to go forward, I hope in the future this Arka can be a reliable person, he said, and I hope Arka in the future can forgive himself" said Arka.

"Not many, I hope Yaza in the future can be a person who can let go of the past and not be selfish anymore" said Yaza.

"For Fai in this period and in the future, I hope you can be a stronger person and stop blaming others for your failures" said Fai.

"For Balqis in the future, I hope you can erase your mistakes in the past, screen it all, and I hope, I will not be disappointed again with my choice. I hope you can make it all this time" said Balqis.

Eyes now turned to Derren and Ghai. Derren smiled, his eyes staring at everyone who was there taking turns.

"Lo deluan Gha" Derren said.

"Hmmm, for myself. I hope you can fight to fight everything, I hope you do not give up in the middle of the road, I hope you can win at the end of the story and come back again with you guys" ghai said with a smile as he looked at Derren.

"For me, I hope when it's time for me to leave, you can all be sincere. I hope, when it comes time for me to disappear from your side, I hope I remain eternally etched in the storybook of your life."

The situation became silent for a moment. Derren smiled and then looked back at his best friend.

"Gue hope, you can all forgive me, and not cry too long for me."

Nea's eyes began to fog, she walked closer towards Derren. His hands moved wiping away the tears that had descended down his cheeks. Derren looked at Nea who was now standing right in front of him as she extended her little finger.

"Gue promise I won't forget you."

For some reason, Derren's tears fell. In fact, Derren had promised he would not cry tonight. Derren finally clasped Nea's little finger with his little finger. Although not held by both Nea and Derren both carved the promise in each other's hearts. Nea then walked closer and hugged the untouched Derren. Derren returned Nea's embrace.

The first Ghai followed Nea's steps and embraced Derren, followed by Yaza, Balqis, Arka, and Fai. Everyone hugged each other. The star on the eve of the new year bears witness to their friendship.

"Renren won't forget you all either."

A girl's voice sounded right behind Derren. Everyone began to look for the figure who had just voiced out earlier.

A girl in a long-sleeved t-shirt clad in cream-colored knit cardigan and a knee-length skirt stood just behind Derren. Her face was smiling sweetly. His hair he let it run sweet.

"Yes Nea, this is Renren" he replied.

"Renren, I miss lo" Balqis said with a cry.

"Renren tau's. Sorry Renren, Renren failed to be your friend" he said.

"Where are you going?" ask Yaza.

"evil trend. Renren wants to hurt Ghai when Renren himself actually does not want to. Renren doesn't know why Renren is such a gini. Ghai sorryin Renren huh?" he said once again.

Ghai looked at Renren. The girl cried, but suddenly after a few seconds after saying that the sweet smile on Renren's face disappeared replaced by a face of anger that was clearly drawn.

"Bad ghai! Evil nea! Evil ark! Evil fai! Evil yaza! Evil balqis! Derren too! All evil same Renren! Renren's scared! Bad ghai! Ghai hates Renren, right?!" she said while crying.

"Son Ren, I don't hate you" replied Ghai.

"Ghi lied! Ghai hates Renren! Evil ghai is Renren!" renren is hysterical.

Derren was still speechless in his position, shocked to see Renren who was suddenly present there. Derren knew Renren was not the cause of his death, in fact, Derren did not hate Renren, he felt guilty instead. On the other hand, Yaza walked slowly closer towards Renren.

"Ren is calm, Ghai doesn't mean that. Everyone loves Renren, nobody hates Renren" Yaza said.

Arka was speechless, both herself and Fai were still confused by all of Renren's words. Same with Nea. Suddenly, Ghai's chest tightened, Ghai held his chest. He had trouble breathing, his eyes began to water. Ghai fell down, his body started to curl up.

Nea who saw him tried to approach Ghai, but did not have time because suddenly he began to feel the same pain as Ghai. In contrast to Arka and Fai who now began to feel pain in his head. Balqis looks overwhelmed, he is confused who should help first, while Yaza is still trying to stop the cry of Renren who seems to lose control. Don't ask Derren, who looks like his soul, where he's going.

Until suddenly, the views of Ghai, Nea, Arka, and Fai were both blurred and turned into an indescribable black screen. A few seconds later, the four of them woke up in a place that looked foreign but felt familiar.

***

"Uhuk! Uhuk!" Ghai coughed as soon as his eyes opened, as did Arka.

"Well!" Nea and Fai both took a breath that felt stalled for a while.

The first Ghai rose from his position, followed by Arka. Ghai then helps Nea stand up, while Arka helps Fai stand up.

"Where is this?" ask Arka.

"I don't know but, this is the 2nd time I've built this place" replied Ghai.

Nea looked around covered in tall weeds. Fai massaged his temple slowly.

"Oath to Gha! Every time you're reading, you're feeling sick like that?!" asked Fai half in disbelief, whereas the one asked only gave his smile in response.

"That's me, right?" ask Nea.

"Where?" ask Arka.

"That."

Nea pointed at a little girl who was running in a direction. Nea automatically follows him from behind followed by Ghai, Arka and Fai.

"Ghen! What's here again?" little Nea asked.

"Noe? How come it's here? This is a special meeting of boys, Nea there first, playing with Balqis and Fai with Renren" said Little Ghai to Nea.

"If it's not wrong, it's Derren, right?" tanya Arka who replied a small nod by Ghai.

"You guys know what the hell? Being watched from yesterday so often play no rhyme me, Balqis, Fai sama Renren" said Nea.

"It's important Nea, so please leave for a moment. Yaza promise we'll play with you guys again!" little Yaza.

"Gee! Yes, Nea has gone!" Little Nea then left the area.

Nea, Ghai, Arka, and Fai were still standing there trying to eavesdrop on the boys' 4th talk there. Derren stepped forward.

"It can't be ignored. The longer, the worse Ghai's gonna be!" little Derren said.

"Why?" ask Little Ghai.

"Because he needs a container. The container must certainly be obtained from one of us" said Yaza Little.

"This is the new temen Ghai, isn't it?" ask little Arka.

"Yes Ka. Arka believes in us, right?" ask little Yaza.

"Yes, Arka believes" he replied.

"Let me tell you our important task now. If you look at it further, the most perfect container is Nea. So, our job is to keep Nea safe. Okay?" ask little Yaza.

"Why me?" nea asked Ghai, Arka, and Fai.

"Don't know me either" replied Fai.

"Why Nea?" ask little Derren.

"Because his body is the fattest! So he must be a strong container" Yaza replied.

It felt like Nea was hitting Yaza on the head with the sandal she was wearing at the time. Ghai and Arka held back the laughter of hearing it.

"Think of you bongsor is Ne" said Arka.

"Run lo!" reply Nea.

"Ghai?!" tiba-tiba suara seorang anak lelaki yang terdengar asing menyapa di telinga.

"Dia datang! Bersikap natural!" peringat Derren kecil.

Tiba-tiba, dada Nea, Ghai, Arka, dan Fai kembali terasa sesak. Mereka berempat ditarik ke sebuah tempat lainnya.

"Hah! Sebentar, gue masih belum terbiasa" ujar Arka sembari bertumpu pada lututnya.

"Gue juga sama" ujar Fai.

Mereka sampai di villa milik Arka. Tepatnya mereka berada di dekat balong milik keluarga Arka.

"Kita salah besar. Targetnya bukan Nea, tapi Renren" ujar Yaza kecil.

"Renren?" Fai kemudian saling bertatapan dengan ke-3 orang yang ada bersamanya di saat itu.

"Gak mungkin Renren" sahut Arka.

"Kenapa?" tanya Fai.

"Karena Derren korban pertamanya." Ghai menjawab sembari menatap Derren kecil yang kini tengah terlihat gelisah setengah mati.
