Title: Indigo Children's Love Story

_________________________

When I was in the 2nd grade of an SMPN in the city of Bandung. I knew a girl named Alin, she was beautiful and knew what I was feeling different from others who thought that I was a strange child or commonly called a crazy person. Even my extended family also sometimes think that I'm crazy because, they often see me talking to myself and even behaving strangely. It's not just a fantasy, but it's real that I can see what you don't see.

The only ones who know my advantages are my sister and my three best friends, Alin, Desi and Toni. They know because they believe in me, especially Alin he believes the most because he also has the same advantages as me.

Since graduating from Junior High I continued to a private SMK. I'm sick of this school because the subtle-bodies here often bother me and my new friends still think I'm a weird kid or crazy but, fortunately there are still Toni and Desi who know my strengths while Alin attended one of the high schools that are still close to our school. Although we are different schools but we all always take the time to just gather.

At home too I was often ridiculed by my sister who had been in college.

'ah you weird kid who doesn't know himself..' Said my brother.

'basal brother who does not know himself.try brother so I must be brother knows what I am feeling' I replied with annoyance.

'basic you.' said my brother as he walked out of the house.

Sometimes when in my own room I feel happy because there is still someone accompanying me, namely friends from other worlds called Popi and Dona, they are both small children from other worlds that I often see at home or around me wherever I am. The little poppy his son did not want to be always carefree but Dona instead he always fell silent sometimes crying. I tried to persuade her but she always cried.

When I was at school I saw that they were both in my class, but no one else felt, but I saw it. As if asking me for help, I tried to approach him but I saw the faces of others on the edge of Dona. Looks like Dona told me to help her friend. Suddenly I screamed and felt something terrifying, everyone saw me screaming in fear.

'AAA... don't bother me. ' I cried unconsciously.

'basas lo Rus, again you scream in fear.' said Kiki while laughing followed by laughing other friends.

'again I was plagued by the terrible creatures that are in this school.' I said in my heart.

'Have continued to learn.' Said madien Indonesian teacher. 'you are sick Rus?.' Ask him to me.

'no ma'am, it's okay.' I replied.

After school I and my two sahabt visited Alin's house because I heard Alin was sick. While at Alin's house I was surprised to see a photo in Alin's room, I saw the face in the photo was very similar to the face of the otherworldly child who always accompanied me. After I asked Alin it turned out that Popi was his biological brother who had died a long time ago due to an accident. Although Alin was sick, willing to tell a little about Popi, it turned out that time Popi and his friend Dona were hit by a car until they both died.

Pantesan during Alin's class with me he felt very happy because he could see his sister laughing happily while he was beside me. After a few days Alin recovered from his illness, from then on Alin became closer because Alin knew that his sister's spirit was always in my room, Alin was happy to be able to play with his sister again as if his sister was still alive.

A few weeks later Alin was sick again he was in the hospital now, after school I decided to visit Alin with Desi and Toni. We brought a little piece of fruit. When I came to Alin's room it turned out that all this time Popi Little other world was beside Alin her sister pantesan only a few days I never saw her.

'thank you everyone, you are my best friends' said Alin.

'yes. both Al Cepet healed well.' reply Desi.

'yes.. Al cepet healed so that Rusdi no longer worried tuh.' continued toni with a little softened.

'crazy. what the fuck is Lo Ton.' I said with a little annoyed tone.

'don't fight' murmured Alin

'iya-iya cepet healed well, I went home first well Al same Desi no Eskul nie?' Ask Toni

'well please be careful on the road yah' replied Alin

'be careful that granny comes with you in the back' I continued

'ah massa, do not make the atmosphere so creepy dong!'

'well actually said Rusdi there is a grandmother who followed you two' said Alin

'already let's go to school again.after all the grandmother will not disturb us if we do not disturb him..' Say Desi while going outdoors.

It was only after Toni and Desi returned to school. Suddenly Alin said

'Rus thank you for finding me with my sister?'

'Yes equally.' My answer.

'you don't want to be my girlfriend?' Alin asked with a sweet smile.

'eee.. ee..' is not finished I replied Alin suddenly laughed because he already knew my feelings to him from Popi the otherworldly child who is none other than his biological sister Alin.

'Why laugh, is there something funny?' many wonder.

'no, it's just red why?' tanyanya excitement.

It was nice we were chatting the doctor came to check on Alin I was ready to go home.

My heart began not to think about the question was whether he really or just playfully I was curious also to see the real Alin. While at home I saw the usual otherworldly child who else if not Popi and Dona. I tried asking Popi not to say it but I understood his sign language. Turns out Alin also keeps a taste in me.

We both took a walk around the hospital just saw a bunch of children who were playing while laughing laughing I saw that the Popi and Dona were there and the beaches were just laughing it was good to see his sister.

For a month, Alin and I have been in a love story full of jokes and laughter, and for a month I have not seen anything strange either in my house or in my school. Maybe it's because I'll be 17 years old the day after. Today I'm going to the hospital to see Alin. It was there that I met Alin's father who was a government official I saw he was scolding Alin. I didn't dare enter Alin's room after a few minutes of his papa Alin coming out and leaving the hospital.

I tried to get into Alin's room there and Alin was lying weakly on his bed crying, I tried to get to him and suddenly Alin hugged me and said 'please take me away from here' said it.

'why do you want to get out of here you're still sick. I don't want to take you out with this condition, say!' my reply.

'you don't know what really happened.' Alin replied in annoyance.

'ok. ok. then I'll take you out of the hospital tomorrow morning as long as you want to tell me what really happened!' doorstep

'actually my papa is corruptor, my mother actually died not abroad my mother died with my sister Popi and they died not because of an accident but they died because they were killed by my papah men on the orders of my papah.. bla. bla' Alin told me all about her

'Every tomorrow I pick you up when the RS employee is replaced..' My reply

I told Toni and Dona all this and they were willing to help me get Alin out of the violence of his papa.

The next day the three of us prepared a car to take Alin out of the hospital.

'Des, you wait here if there's anything on my phone and you're Ton, you come with me into the mastiin all the officers are gone!' doorstep

'ok. ready' said Desi and Toni together.

We tried to sneak in when my shift employee managed to get into Alin's room where Alin was ready to wait for my arrival.

Suddenly Toni says 'the danger of Rus is that Alin's papa is coming..'

without saying much I held Alin to take him out of the hospital. But just as we came out of Alin's room, Alin's papa saw the three of us and chased after us as if we were kidnapping Alin.

We managed to get in the car and hit the gas straight away but Alin's papa and his men followed us from behind. We strategize Alin and I get out of the car and get on the bus, Alin's papa's men are fooled yet, not with his papa Alin he still followed us both from behind at a glance I saw Popi and Dona were on the bus we were riding them as if bidding waving his right hand to us both. Finally we managed to escape from Alin's papa by jumping off the bus.

'are you okay, say?' I asked Alin.

'no. Nothing, ' she replied smiling

'good then' reply me.

'Rus thanks well, don't forget to also say the same Toni and Desi thanks for this friendship I'm sorry if all this time I have been wrong with you guys..' alin said with tears coming down from her beautiful eyes as if to say goodbye to me.

I rubbed Alin's tears on her cheeks and then alin said 'thank you have are at my heart, thank you also on what already you do currently, I want you forget I forever, I LOVE YOU RUS' Alin smiled then he went towards the light that came out of nowhere.

I just fell silent and tears were hard for me the ground of the droplets of tears even dripping, all like a dream but this is the reality that happened.

Not long after that my hape sounded

'kringg.. kringg.' I tried to lift the phone out of who.

'haloo.' I said.

'hello my brother Alia Alin's brother.' His voice sounded like a man who was fighting.

'what's up, Al?' much

'let's see, brother Alin is no more…'

'how is Al?'

'sister Alin has already left, sis.' Alia's cry sounded tight.

Suddenly I was surprised to hear the news, when I and Alin were clearly both here. I'm a little bit in disbelief with what happened I decided to look for Alin around here but I didn't find it the day started the night I decided to go back to town and visit Alin's house who knows he's already home.

At Alin's house, Toni and Desi were in front of Alin's house, which was filled with flowers.

'What is this? How many flowers?' ask me for wonder

'Alin died Rus, Alin died in an accident with his papa, we've tried to hold his papa not to bring Alin but, we can't keep him. We're sorry for Alin's passing.' Reply Toni.

'continue I got off the car with Alin' reply me with disbelief about this incident.

'we were together. But, you came down alone to outwit Alin's papa'

'well, but I did get off but I got off with Alin both to get on the bus and I both jumped off the bus in the border village of the city.'

'maybe it's all your imagination rus, because among us who can see other creatures just you. And obviously we saw the accident because we were also the victims, Desi said.

I could not speak anymore what was true Alia had told me, I could only lament this sorrow and accept the reality. Alia Sodara twins Alin came up to me and gave us a letter and the contents were the same as what Alin said the last time I saw her.
