...•••...

It's been almost an hour since Aeli locked himself in the toilet. Sitting on a toilet while bowing your head. Tears continue to flow non-stop. His left chest tightened because he was crying too much.

The girl took a deep breath, her hands slapped her chest slowly while closing her eyes. Trying to normalize the excruciating pain in there.

I'm just trying to be nice.

That sentence, for some reason continued to buzz in his ears, playing on his head and unceasingly piercing his heart like a sharp spear tip.

“Why does it hurt so bad?” Aeli gulped, and it tasted bitter. His throat hurt, causing him to cough a few times.

Luckily the toilet was quiet so no one was aware of its existence here. At least not aware of his mess now. What do they say if a human they consider to be rogue and cruel is suddenly caught crying bombay in the toilet.

Aeli had absolutely no preparation to feel this kind of heartache. He only thinks of happy things until he does not remember that painful things can also happen. Sky was too sweet and Aeli did not wish for any wounds that the man had scratched in his heart.

Aeli admitted, he had fallen deeply to Sky. What he felt was not just a feeling of liking, but the love that he hoped for the same reply.

“Bego really lo, Li.” Aeli chuckled sliced, laughing at his stupidity.

He should have remembered that if he could be too happy at one time, then there would be injuries at a later time. Aeli was too happy to forget to learn from the experience. And finally, he was careless again letting his heart be hurt just like that.

...•••...

“Lo from where aja anjir?” The question was thrown out of Clara's mouth when Aeli returned to class after the second break. Which means he locked himself up for almost two hours in the toilet.

Aeli sat himself in his chair, ignoring Clara's questions and choosing to drop his head on the table. He is tired, his heart and physique need rest.

“Gue nanya woi's. Even encumbered.”

“Diem, Clar. I males by the way.”

Clara frowned at Aeli's hoarse voice. Roughly he forced Aeli back to raise his head, scrutinizing the girl's sad face.

“Lo is crying, yes?”

Aeli brushed off Clara's hand, returning to his original position without answering.

“Heh! Do you not listen to me anyway? You're crying, Aeliya?” Clara repeated the question.

“Nggak.”

“What a thing is so clear you are crying.”

“No, Clar!”

Returning to class after crying seemed like the dumbest choice Aeli had ever taken.

“Lo whyaa? Any problem? Story here same me, don't dipendem alone ah, Li.”

Aeli let out a rough breath. Get up from the chair and grab his backpack rough. Created a deep frown on Clara's forehead.

“Where else are you going?”

“Rome.” Aeli immediately passed out of the room without ignoring Clara's confusion.

“Why is that a child? Suddenly lost, suddenly appeared, suddenly blurred.”

Ditch, the only way Aeli can get out of this school right now. To hell with the lesson, Aeli's heart condition is far more important than anything.

“Aeli?”

Aeli's steps stopped as soon as he heard his name called. He turned his head, Sky figure filling the frame of his eyes presumptuously. Makes his heart performance become very fast irregular. Why does he have to meet this guy now? What a cliche coincidence.

“Ya?” sahut flat. As much as possible control his facial expression so as not to look pitiful in front of Sky.

“Where are you going? How to bring a bag?” ask Sky wonder.

“Rome.”

“Why? You sick, Li?” Implied a worried tone in Sky's sentence, and it managed to thrill Aeli's heart.

Nah! Stop baper right now!

“There's business.”

Sky caught a different thing from the way Aeli spoke and looked. The girl looked cute and did not look as cheerful as usual. Aeli did not even reply to ask as he usually did. But there was one that was still the same, the way he looked at Sky.

“Oh yaudah. You be careful, yes.” Sky smiled gently.

Damn, why does your face have to be so cute?

“Hm,” reply and instantly waltzes away just like that.

Aeli's attitude just now certainly raises a big question mark in Sky. Has he done anything wrong to the point that Aeli is acting as cold as snow? Last night, they were still very well. They even exchanged messages too.

“Lo do not need to try to be nice to me if only I want to serve Sky. Lo jutekin also I do not matter origin lo sincerely lasalinnya.”

Again, the tears fell but were wiped away by the owner. Aeli will not let others see his sadness, will not.

...•••...

Aeli stepped inside the house after parking her car in the garage. Aeli's feelings were really bad and he wanted to immediately spill everything inside the room.

Once stepping on the second floor, Aeli's steps suddenly stopped because he heard the sound of objects falling from his parents' room. The girl turned her head, slowly approaching towards the door that was not tightly closed. Peep inside.

His eyes faded as soon as he saw Mahesa lying on the floor. Aeli quickly walked in and squatted down next to her now unconscious papa.

“Pa! Papa why? Wake up, Pa!” Aeli tried to resuscitate the man but nil. His eyes remained tightly closed with a pale face.

“Tante Ashila! The tan! Please papa!” yelled Aeli calling her stepmother who was out of nowhere at the moment.

“Tante! Please, Tan!” Aeli kept calling. A moment later Ashila appeared in front of the door with a panicked look. Her eyes widened in shock at the state of her husband.

“Aeli, why your papa?” he asked after squatting near Aeli.

“I don't know! I came with papa already rich! Auntie call an ambulance!”

“I-iya briefly.” Ashila hurriedly took out her phone from inside her pocket. Because of panic his hands also tremble.

“Papa why can rich gini anyway, Pa?” The tears that Aeli was resistant to finally spilled. She could at least see Mahesa fall ill, as bad as the man's treatment of her.

“God, please don't separate me from papa. I beg you not.”

...•••...

Aeli did not stop pacing in front of the ER room. He really could not calm down before knowing Mahesa's condition. Already repeatedly Ashila persuaded her to sit down, but Aeli continued to refuse. There was nothing Ashila could do but leave her stepson with her choice.

As soon as the door of the room opened, Aeli immediately approached the man's doctor. Followed Ashila.

“What's papa's situation, Doc? Papa's okay, right?” ask Aeli quickly.

“Pak Mahesa's condition is getting worse, Miss. His heart rate is weakening and he should be moved to the ICU right now. I excuse.”

Aeli's body immediately weakened hearing the doctor's explanation of Mahesa's condition. A few nurses walked out of the room, pushing the man's gurney to the ICU.

“Papa.” Aeli sobbed at the medical device attached to Mahesa's body. There was Ashila next to him, rubbing his shoulder softly to channel the calmness.

“Aeli must be sure papa will be fine. Don't think badly, yes,” Ashila said gently.

Aeli nodded weakly. Wiping her tears that continued to pour with the back of her hand and soon followed Mahesa to the ICU room. Aeli did not want to leave Mahesa for a second, he wanted to always be there for his papa.

...•••...

Created see.

As he ran to hide his sorrow, as he was all his might holding back the tears that almost spilled in front of many people, and as he quickly wiped away the drop of tears that forced his escape from hiding.

All of this was captured in the memory of the Creator. Even without him knowing what the cause was, he understood if the girl was so hurt. And so here he was now, questioning his feelings under the expanse of blue sky decorated with white clouds. The top of the Flourst building which is often the place of escape when confused.

“Why should I care about him? Why can't I stop thinking about him?” ask the Creator on anything that can answer his question.

Other memories alternately scramble to be remembered. That pretty face last night regained control of her mind. Last night for the Creator failed to remove the face and now, the face appears again without sin.

“Gue can't really fall in love with her, right?”

Honestly, Dipta herself wondered why last night she suddenly pulled Aeli into her dance partner. Then confidently call herself Aeli's future girlfriend. Dipta does not know why but he believes he is already insane. Even now he was more convinced because there was only Aeli's face that filled his brain.

“Crazy for me,” murmured Created.

His phone that suddenly vibrated in his pants pocket made the boy cluck. He immediately raised the call without seeing the name listed.

“Halo.”

“Halo, Brother. Where's sister Dipta?” That's Claudia's voice.

“Atap,” Reply Made potluck.

“Please anterin me to the hospital, sister. My papa is in ICU.”

Hearing that, Dipta immediately remembered Aeli. Is it because of this that Aeli cried and hurried home?

“Have a hand, Brother. I'm confused to ask for help who else besides Brother.”

“Wait for me in the parking lot.” The created then immediately disconnects. Walk quickly away from the school rooftop.

Dipta was really worried about Aeli. He was sure the girl was not in good shape right now.

After permission to the BP teacher on duty, Dipta immediately walked towards the parking lot. As expected, there was already Claudia waiting for him there.

“Which hospital?” ask Dipta quickly.

“R. Kusumajaya, Brother,” reply Claudia.

Dipta unlocks the car and tells Claudia to get in. He drove the car away from the school area in a slight hurry.

Seeing that, Claudia became confused. Why did she seem more panicked than him? Could it be that the Creator knew Mahesa?

As she hesitated to ask, Claudia chose silence. To this day his heart still often beats fast if it is near Dipta. Claudia was afraid that what she felt was more than a sense of awe. Then it will be the reason for his heartache later on.

Claudia didn't want that to happen. But he also did not deny that his feelings of joy were getting bigger and bigger for the Creator.

...•••...

“Mama,” call Claudia as soon as she gets in front of Mahesa's ward.

Ashila, who was sitting next to Aeli, stood up, hugging her child gently.

“Why don't you wait to get home from school just got here, honey?” ask Ashila.

Claudia shakes. “No, Ma. Clau wants to know the progress of papa. What is papa's situation now?”

“Papa still being treated by a doctor. Her heart rate is weakening,” explains Ashila. Claudia sighed softly, not expecting that the condition of her papa would be that severe.

Unlike the case with Claudia, from the beginning set foot into this place the attention of Dipta directly fell to Aeli who was sitting in the waiting chair. The girl's appearance looked chaotic, her face was tangled instead of playing.

“Clau, who is this?” Ashila looked at Dipta. The man smiled faintly and immediately shook Ashila's hand.

“I Created, Tan.” The guy answered.

“Created? Guys that you often cheri—”

“Ma, have you eaten yet? Clau cariin food, huh?” interject Claudia quickly before Ashila divulges her big secret.

Ashila who understood instantly smiled. Choose not to continue the sentence and change the topic. “You yourself have eaten?”

“Em, not yet, Ma.”

“Yaudah we are down, yes,” invite Ashila who directly subscribed to Claudia. Ashila turned to look at Aeli who was still still on the spot while leaning his head against the wall with his eyes closed.

Aeli sighed softly before replying. “Go aja.”

Ashila understood Aeli was not wanting to be disturbed. He was with Claudia.

“Kak, please temenin kak Aeli for a moment, yes. Brother want to titip nothing let me buyin all of you?” ask Claudia.

“Nevent gone.”

“Oh okay. Come, Ma.”

After the departure of Ashila and Claudia, the place became quiet. Aeli is not concerned with the existence of Dipta and does not want to know. Until he felt the movement next to him, but he chose to keep his eyes closed. Aeli was too lazy to emotionally look at that guy's face.

For the last few minutes, no one has opened their voice. They are still in their respective positions. As if there was nothing more exciting than keeping your lips closed. But in the next minute, the silence was broken due to the sound of Dipta.

“Lo all right?” ask the guy after sorting out the sentences in the brain.

“Laughter if you are not strong.”

The flat-pitched sentence that Aeli shot out made Dipta snort slowly. He could not figure out why Aeli could say that at a time like this.

“Gue no intention nyiduk lo,” ceplos Dipta.

It means to snoop Aeli in a state of chaos. Moist eyes, wrinkled face, messy hair. Because he knew, Aeli had always tried to look perfect in front of many people.

“Connect there.” Aeli still had no intention of opening his eyes.

“Lo is no longer good.”

“Continue? What is my condition ngrepotin lo?”

Really good for tai!

“Ngak.”

Aeli let out a long breath. He opened his eyes but did not change his position. The lobby ceiling became the object of his observation.

“Saunt me today. If I had the strength, I want to be lewatin today so or I lost all of you so that my misfortune also disappeared,” cerocos Aeli unconsciously.

He listened, leaning his head against the surface of the wall while looking up. “Lo is not unlucky. Just another trial,” reply Dipta.

“But why so much?”

“Ya because if a little name cobain.”

Aeli was silent again, her gaze turning blank. There was a long pause between them before Dipta returned to speak.

“God knows you are strong, so you are given a rich ordeal gini.”

“Gue can't cry if it's strong.”

“Lo know? Crying is actually a medicine. If you pendem everything yourself and continue to make yourself strong, the inner lo is injured. The effect is added danger.”

“What is it?”

“Use nanya.”

Aeli. “Kejedot did you suddenly become a smart ass?”

Created to raise the shoulders. “Gue is also confused.”

The man turned his head towards Aeli, smiling faintly seeing Aeli willing to look at him. Although it was just a flat gaze that the girl threw.

“Li,” call Dipta plan.

“Hm.”

“You better?”

“No,” Aeli replied directly without thinking.

“Gue seriously. I'm tired of foein.”

“What's the basis?” we gotta get better?

He thought for a moment. To be honest, he doesn't know either.

“On the basis I've tired lo foein,” ceplosnya origin.

“Lo is also my enemy.” Aeli looked back at the ceiling.

“Udah. I've been treated.” Created to hold his body. “All of you I also want to apologize because so far often make lo kelas.”

Aeli did not reply. Eliminating the feeling of mumps in the guy is certainly not as easy as approaching Sky. Damn why Sky?!

“Sama about the rest, I also do not know why I like it. I actually have an alter ego.”

Aeli whining. This guy .. want to ask for forgiveness also had time to make the alter ego as an excuse.

“We're better, huh? I promise not to rest again.”

“One.” Aeli said suddenly. “Gue does not like to be held. Want it hands, feet, body, face. Don't like.”

Dipta anten listen.

“Two. I don't like to be loved.”

“Three. I don't like two-faced humans.”

“Lo can full my terms, we're better.”

Aeli's words surprised Dipta. “Serious?”

“If you can't please go,” break Aeli absolute.

The Creator cannot not smile. Let's say this is the first time she's smiled that brightly in front of someone other than her mother. Aeli even once gasped at the sweet smile.

“Gue can,” answers sure. “Means now we temen?”

“Who also wants to cement the same lo.”

“Dih, songong,” kekeh Created.

Aeli smiled thinly. Very thin. And for the first time, he felt at ease beside the Creator. The annoyance, goiter, the crap he kept gradually disappeared. Yes, hopefully Dipta seriously wants to get better. Aeli was also tired of arguing with the guy every time he met.

...•••...

Sky took a deep breath staring at the roomchat displaying his message with Aeli. Three times Sky reread their chat from start to finish, but the last message still never get a reply. Not even read.

Sky felt there was something different about Aeli today. Did he make a mistake that made Aeli angry? But what has he done?

“I miss, Li,” murmured that guy.

A day without Aeli turned out to be quite bad for Sky's heart and feelings. He may have thought to stay away from the girl just because he felt inappropriate. Sky should have never and should not have thought that far.

“Sky! Whoops! Down eat!” rey shouted after banging on the door of Sky's room several times. Already his voice was as big as a toa, using all screaming.

With a heavy heart Sky rose from a recumbent position. Get out of bed and walk downstairs to dinner. His parents and twin and little brother were waiting there. Sky only put on a faint smile to say hello.

“Tumben new down, dear? What else?” ask Aiyana—munda Sky and Rey.

“Ngot doing anything, Mommy,” reply slowly.

“Always he, Bun.” Rey. Tingled amusedly then.

“Kun Mommy why upset? Try here the same story Mother.”

“Biasalah chick, Bun.” It was not Sky who answered.

“You already have a girl, Bang?” Gilvan—father the twins—asked.

“Punya, Dad. Sneak abis periannya.”

“Ngaco, Rey,” Sky. The problem is Aeli is not Sky's girlfriend, how dong?

“Bang Kai already has a girl, Bang?” Mey—adik wanita the twins—ikut.

“Hust, you already said Mother called him do not Bang Kai kok, you are,” Aiyana's nag.

The five-year-old boy roared the horse. “Shilapah, Bun. Sorry, yes.”

“Hmm. I ate first, ntar chat followed up eating.”

The other four people were directly obedient after Aiyana said. Minutes passed there was only the sound of the clanking of spoons that filled the dining room. The Sky family does have a rule that must be implemented, which is not allowed to make a sound when eating. Everything must be calm and only allowed to talk after their meal is complete.

“Yes, Bun, Sky up first, yes,” Sky permission after finishing his meal.

“Loh how to hurry? Don't talk here?” ask Aiyana again.

“Yes, Bang Kai doesn't want to nemenin Mey learn, Bang?” Mey reflexes silenced her mouth as soon as she realized her mistake. “Bang Sky Mey.”

“Tomorrow yes, Deck. Pamit first Well, Bun, Rey. Good night.”

“Night too. Aeli's dream, Sky! Don't dream Lovely ntar His thumped Aeli!” ceplos Rey made Sky throw a sharp glare. Ask to be stabbed is the child's mouth.

After the departure of Sky, Rey immediately cramped. Sky's face was funny. She should have taken her picture and sent it to Aeli. Rey dared to bet Aeli must have never seen the form of Sky like that.

“Aeli is who, Bang? Sky's girlfriend?” ask Gilvan.

“Calon, Yeah. Not yet them.”

“Loh earlier said Sky already have a girlfriend, how the hell are you?”

“Haha cananda doang it Well let his Sky sensitize.”

“Udah really deket ya they? Mommy thinks Sky does not dare decet-deket chick loh.” Aiyana chuckles.

“It's the same Aeli doang, Bun. Aeli is also soft as Sky doang.”

“Can be it, yes?”

“Mother know? Aeli has also never deket same guy before. Only Sky can make him open himself.” Rey was excited to explain.

“Oh yes? Mother became curious as the name Aeli. The guy's good, Bang?”

Rey sizzled softly, scratching her ears. If so, how do you explain it, huh? Sky it, never want to get near the girl. Eh once close even the queen bully.

“Bang?” call Aiyana.

“Well, Bun. Very good even. His son is really not neko-neko.” This includes lying no, huh?

“Sometimes tell Sky to bring it here yeah, Bang. Mommy wants acquaintance,” said Aiyana semringah.

Mey was in the ring. “Mey also want to know dong, Bun. Her sister must be very beautiful huh Bang until Bang Sky likes?”

Rey sniffed Mey's tiny nose. “Very rich Mey.”

“Wah if rich Mey means beautiful wear really. Twelve times.”

“Why should it be twelve times?”

“Because of Mey's girlfriends there are twelve.” The boy nodded without sin.

“Ye bocil lo emang!”

“Bang,” reprimand Aiyana and Gilvan together. Duh right, glared at the bibil's handler.
