Pandora Jupiter

Pandora Jupiter
The Hope of the Failed Star



Far away there, the giant clock tower looks dwarfed from here but of course it is still much bigger when compared to my body. Staring at him with hand-circled binoculars and fused thumbs, focusing on the face of the clock, his short needle is at the bottom left, at five in the morning if.


My final destination will be after visiting several places. The puzzle pieces I wanted to collect were hidden in the past connected to the present. For the sake of knowing the past, of course, there is no other way but to open the mouth of someone who knows about it, but to be silenced for various reasons, there are two people in this village that I can suspect, except for my own brother who has gone far away from here.


Kuterus walked while enjoying the view of some housing that the foundation of the brick.there are several barrels and also wooden boxes beside. In front of each house circular around the shower as the center.most of the house was propagated as a store that was half open because it was quiet visitors, precisely no one at all. It was sad enough to turn myself towards the sky.


“Really, how peaceful it is here”.


Sitting on the edge of the shower, the water is orange. I drank a little because of the prank, of course not the taste of orange, although it looks so because the light from the dark sky throughout the day decorated with clouds in the form of twists and turns as well as caffucino cream. Suddenly there was a crackling of open doors that made a slight pain in his direction from in front of me, appeared an old man with a thin and slouching body was narrowing his eyes looking at me while arranging glasses.


“Oh. Yupi it turns out, what's sitting alone there”.realizing my whereabouts he approached start a chat.


“Ehehe, nothing, just enjoy the morning atmosphere”.


“So yes. Awannya good ya”.


“Yes, I'm so beautiful to be trapped in the beauty”.


“Haha...” he laughed off as if made-up, making me realize the words I said earlier seemed a bit embarrassing.


“Oh yes, wait a minute ya”. like he has remembered something, then he returned to his house seemed to want to find something. After a moment of appearing he smiled closer to me with both hands back. What will this be. Don't tell me he'll seduce me by giving me flowers, kidding me. But I was shocked to see what he gave me. I looked at him confused.


“Candy?”.


“Iya. Canden”.


“Ma-love...”. lollipop-a blue purple-red sugar candy circular shaped with stick as the handle. I mean I don't have a sweet appetite this early, why did he suddenly give this to me.Well, it seems the answer might be simple, because he's a confectionery shop owner.


“Eating sweet-sweet for young people, can not relieve stress, eat and think calmly”.


“...” I'm stunned.


Knowing yes, what from the view of others I do look like a person who is exhausted by a lot of thoughts, I wouldn't deny that lately I've been spending my time in my room reading books that I thought might help me find insight into Pandora, but everything was deadlocked without any clue that could lead me to something, so today there was an appointment with someone I could hope for good news from. Again, I got carried away with these thoughts. Without me knowing, from the direction of the surface of the water, the face reflected there does look gloomy. Dark circles under the eyes reduce the beauty of the face.


“Hah, my eyes are like panda”.


“Haha! Panda yes. Isn't it funny that so”. he laughed out loud feeling funny by hearing my complaint.


“Cake style, just a figure of speech. Funny thing is in panda doang not in akunya”.


“So. In the eyes of grandfather Yupi remains sweet”.


“Uwawa. Digombalin grandfather-grandfather”.it feels strange if blushed embarrassed praised like this, but of course happy too.after all I am not as beautiful as Diane and sister Mika. there is nothing more than me from all sides just an ordinary village woman.


“Ohoho... feel in love?”.


“Must be, impossible, impossible!!”. I stand crossed both hands.


“Honey once...”. sad expression like completely denied love.


“Oy grandpa old. Stop seducing girls”. Someone emerged from his neighbor's house. Breadstore owner, Uncle Sammy.


"Ohoho my charm that gets all girls drunk on love".


"Don't be an old lady!".


The heavy voice from Uncle Sammy's shout was really rather frightening, though, you see, he always talks with a loud volume but that does not change that he is actually a good person even though he does not seem too suitable from his attitude and stature. Like those who say don't look outside.


“Pppft... hehehe”. seeing their feud made me look down with laughter, like a comedy routine, those who are aware of my laughter, look at me from there just by smiling warmly without saying anything, watching me come back carefree. Really, well thought I was.


“Ah, thanks uncle, but one day, this is mostly”.


“No! Must spend! You are still growing up! Let's eat a lot! No need to hesitate!”.


“Nggwak may be able to habwis”. I ate bread in a depressed state because he clapped his hands, encouraging me with sparkling eyes as if there was a eating competition here.


“Come! Comeing! Come!”.


“twunggu.. Uhuk, uhuk...”. until choking cough, I dugup made. banging on the chest.


“What do you do dear, Yupi eat it so hurry it becomes”. a woman who wears a matching apron with uncle sammy


“Oh forgive me! I'm too excited ahaha. but still to be spent!”.


“.…”. Worrying is full. I could probably eat that much this early. But it feels really good, this store used to always run out. In my childhood, there were many people here, if I remember. What because of the mysterious death of four people in two days is the cause of many who leave this village until it is gradually quiet.must be many who associate it with pandora, including myself who suspect the same thing.


“This is chocolate milk, blow it first, still warm”. uncle sam's wife brought me a cup of drink. “Mwakwasih kak”.


“Pyuh.. pyuh.”. blow-dipping warm drinks with smoke that evaporates into the air. Just like that gave off a calming mysterious feeling filled the chest. Beside me uncle Sam's wife named Dahlia, could not stand her feet stroking each other and her hands.


“What's up? stopping my desire to drink because it kept on being seen without movement made me a bit uncomfortable, so I asked him who would not say it directly. He looked right at my eyes with a red face and then grabbed my hand holding a white cup with a pink rose.


“Um... Yupi, which you can repeat”.


“Yang earlier?…”. I don't really understand what that means.


“Your words were after I gave you that chocolate milk”.it pointed at my glass and made me start to recall what I said before, I don't think there are any strange words I said. until I realized something might be a little awkward than I said.


“Still... Brother.?”. make sure in a questioning tone.


“Ah it! Hehe, glad to be called brother”. holding both cheeks with a happy face.


“B-so yes. Sister does still look young, I think more suitable called so”.right, I do not lie, aunt Dahlia is still very young from her appearance.


“Duh. You can praise him! Let's continue eating, if you want again later brother takein, kyaaa I so call yourself brother”.


"Ahaha.". laughed awkwardly, I was confused what to do under these circumstances, his expression looked so happy. Her husband laughed and praised.


“My wife is indeed the most beautiful in the world, of course she is ageless”. prides herself


"Grandfather agrees that it's strange that Dahlia would marry this bald man".


"What are you saying!!".


"You guys, don't fight over me. kyaaaa!!".


"Pfftt.". watching it really brings warmth to the feeling. Being surrounded with this kind of atmosphere is really calming. In the chocolate solution my reflection was still visible, I asked him who was there in my heart.


‘you too can you feel it?’ this beautiful moment will be caught up in memories.


“Warmly...” I breathe half-hot chocolate which enhances the heart-warming sensation into this body. This feeling I want to keep feeling, just by being attached to someone else, I can laugh with them, chat, joke with each other, given a lot of things I can't get back. Is it not why I can feel this most beautiful gift. Even though I have nothing, the existence or absence of me will not affect their lives, but why they care about me. To take my existence clear even though I myself always wanted to deny it. Is it okay why you guys are so nice to me? spend precious time with myself in it.


Those questions made me want to be a strong person, where I wouldn't feel filled with this kind of guilt, because it was just one-sided, one-sided, it was always me who took on the role of someone who was always given. Someday it will happen if I am the one who can bring happiness to others. It must be very beautiful. Is that possible?, for a fragile girl like me to constantly trouble many people around me, in order to expect naive desires. A peak of desire for the happiness of everyone in the village, my dead parents, my distant brother, myself included. Lives love each other, for the sake of a smile for all their loved ones, firmly attached, connected from heart to heart. The eternal peak of happiness.


I want to shine too, despite failing as a star. Then I'll do it as Jupi, as a brown dwarf, without denying myself. Acknowledging all the weaknesses, shining brighter than anyone, more than anything, that was the height of my desire.
