SMILE BEHIND THE SORROW

SMILE BEHIND THE SORROW
FINALLY REVEALED



I never thought my vacation would be like this. I've been on vacation for over a week at Eyang's.


But, it's not the calm I get. Not the happiness I found. Except something I never knew.


After that incident, the whole family tried to cheer me up. Papa plans to take us all on vacation to Jogja.


I follow wherever they take me. I hope in that new place I will take away all my burdens and problems.


Fatih also took part in this holiday. He always tried to cheer me up. But not with me.


I don't blame him and I don't hate him either. I still need time to restore my heart.


I guess if I come here I'll forget how I felt about Wildan. I should be able to forget about him, I don't want everything to crack.


In the afternoon, I intend to visit Mas Fahmi's grave one last time. Karna, tomorrow we're all going on vacation to Jogja. The place that Mas Fahmi and I wanted to visit.


After I get there I want to go to the greweng beach. This trip took 4 hours and 38 minutes.


The atmosphere in the car is actually quite crowded. But, for some reason with me it feels like my life and body are not fused.


I sat next to Fatih, Mother told him to sit with me. Even though I refused but Mother will still tell him near me.


My eyes are still out of the car, my ears from the beginning have been gagged with headsat. A lot of people want to talk to me, but I just keep quiet and listen to my favorite music.


The wind made my eyes close. In the middle of the trip the car rented Papa stopped for a while to fill the gasoline.


I still didn't move my gaze that was staring out of the car. The music I listen to also helps me from the voices that keep calling me.


Listening to music in my heart is so comforting to me. From the past, I'd rather listen to music to restore my mood.


Before long the car was running back at a speed that was not so fast. I exhaled a breath that felt tight, very tight I felt.


I rested my head in the chair with a little bit of the car window. I tried to close my two eyeballs that were getting tired.


Not waiting for long my two tired eyes finally closed perfectly.


***


After waiting for quite a long time the car stopped at a fairly close to the place we were going to visit.


" Deck, get up and get to the hotel. Continue again in the room," said Asri woke me up.


I slowly blinked my eyes to perfect it. I opened the car door and walked ahead of those who were still dropping things.


Not that I don't want to help her but right now I want to go inside the room and put my body to sleep. I walked up to the receptionist to ask for the keys and registered everything.


After I registered everything I waited for everything. I'm looking for a seat around here. I decided to wait for them in the hotel lobby not far from the reception venue.


I haven't been able to sit on my body, there are people who pat me on the shoulder.


"Mely, why is he here," my inner self when I know the person who patted me.


" Hay, you're Vey, right? It is said that they have not met for a long time. Who's here," said Mely.


Mely was one of my closest friends. Now, not since they all thought I was crazy and stayed away from me.


I who was called just silent did not want to respond to his words. When Mely was perfectly positioned, my family came.


I still don't mind Mely's rants that I think are nonsense. I stood up as Mother and her entourage drew near.


Without saying any more I thrust out all the keys I got from the receptionist earlier. Mother looked at me and then looked at Mely.


Mommy knows with Mely because she often plays at home first. You know right now I must be feeling bad. Mother clasped my hand to channel her power.


" Mely, you're on vacation here too anyway," said Papa trying to get stale. Actually Papa was worried about me too but he tried to hide it.


Ma'am Asri and both of my eyes stared dislikefully at Mely. Fatih was still standing near Papa while carrying his backpack.


" Yes, Kan is still off school Mr. De. How could you happen to meet here" Mely replied.


" You're here alone is your family Mel," asked Mommy.


" I'm here with my cousin Budhe, with some friends, too" Mely replied again.


I tugged at Mother's arm to end this stale base. I'm really not comfortable with this meeting. Finally Fatih who saw my discomfort tried to signal to Mbak Asri.


Fatih gestured through the tail of her eyes so that Mbak Asri would know. Ma'am Asri who knew what he meant Fatih immediately nodded his head in understanding.


" Bun, yuk kasian Eyang stood up from earlier. Sorry well we first," said Mbak Asri fiercely to Mely. Without waiting for an answer from Mely Mbak Asri takes us away.


I leaned my back against the elevator wall. We'll all go see the sunset. I was impatient for that time.


Ting ...


The sound of the elevator sounds indicates we have all reached the intended floor. My room is next to Fatih's. While Mbak Asri adjacent to the second Eyang. Mommy and Papa are obviously one room for sure.


Immediately I lay down my body in a padded mattress covered in white cloth. I continued to sleep on my back. The headset attached to my earlobe had been detached from earlier.


All groups may still have someone to clean up the goods. Not with Vey who was already far away in his dreamland.


Mother and the others finally followed Vey into a beautiful dream. Unbeknownst to them, Vey and the others missed lunch.


Vey is still faithful to his beautiful dreams until without him knowing it is almost night.


Mother had tried to knock on Vey's door, but there was no answer from inside.


They decided to have dinner downstairs first. They are very worried about Vey's condition, when they find out everything is not very good Vey condition.


A little diet, and if night falls he will cry again. So they all allowed Vey to rest even more.


At seven o'clock in the night Vey still hasn't woken up. The worried mother told Papa to ask the receptionist for his spare key.


After getting the key Papa directly opened Vey's room.


Ceklek Ceklek


My ears faintly heard a sound like the sound of a door opening.


I moved my position to sit down, collecting the remains of lives that had not yet been collected.


" Daughter, yeah alloh baby ...! Why was it called from earlier did not answer anyway," anxious Mother approached me. I who got treatment from Mother just smiled without answering.


I spread my eyes to see behind Mother who has gathered everything. My gaze met with Fatih's gaze, the fleeting silence I felt.


Finally, I opened my voice to remove the silence I created.


" What time is Bun," asked my mother who was still sitting next to me.


" It's nine o'clock at night, baby. You are from earlier we call the nyut. Tired well baby, sleep well son." Ask Mommy while stroking my hand.


I just nodded my head slowly. Now in the room there is only me and Mother. Papa, both Eyang, Ma'am Asri and Fatih are waiting outside.


" Bun, Vey can not do much to Mother," asked me mercon ventured. Mother nodded her head and smiled.


" Bun, what really donated his cornea said Fatih it was Mas Fahmi. Also, I used to know that Mas Fahmi never told Fatih to me," I asked again. Mother was silent for a moment then she cleared her throat.


Pulling my palm and gently stroking my hair back. Mother smiled at me with her two slightly teary eyes.


" Daughter, it's not that we all hide everything the same you just that we're all waiting for the right time. And when you meet Fatih in the square, he actually lives there. From a small family Fatih and Masmu never met again. Your mother and father lost contact until he finally got word from his friend if your father's brother's son had an accident. Not long after they met again but under different circumstances." Mother momentarily stopped her story taking a breath to hold back from crying in front of me.


I'm still waiting for the next story, I'm very curious about Fatih. Mother looks to bend her head for a while like wiping her tears that escaped out.


I held the hand of Mother who had not separated from my grasp. Mom looked at me again.


" Bun, I know you love me very much. I know you're all worried about my condition I've never been mad at you all. It's just that I still can't accept I need time for everything" I replied trying to hide my disappointment.


" Already, Mother does not want our vacation disturbed. Next time Mother will tell me again. Now, you sleep again so that tomorrow morning let it be fresh," Mother ordered.


Without much protest I immediately positioned my body to lie down. Mother covers me to the shoulder, before leaving I do not forget Mother always kisses my forehead.


I closed my eyes again as Mother moved to get out of the room. When Mother was really out I sat back down.


I sobbed to my knees, I drowned my face on both knees. It's hard for me to accept him to replace Mas Fahmi.


Until finally I fell asleep with the position of the head still sinking in both arms and knees bent.


NB: IT IS BETTER TO GET SICK IN THE BEGINNING THAN TO GET SICK IN THE BACK. WHEN EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED FOREIGN.


Maybe not many are waiting for Up😊 but I am still grateful and grateful for those who want to stop by my spare change.


Don't forget LIKE, SARAN, love stars or if you want to VOTE.


Happy reading


Greetings from a loved one😘😘😘😘
