The Clutches of the Storm

The Clutches of the Storm
A memory from the past



Alfamart district xxxxxxx


Jakarta.


Storm's eyeballs stared at his sister's back moving away from her sight, letting the girl go buy something she didn't know what she was doing. The man rested his head and body on the car seat where he was at the moment, letting his eyeballs settle towards a different side.


it could be seen several teenage boys in Junior High uniform laughing out loud right in front of Alfamart where he was, in a decidedly abnormal curfew, in front of Alfamart, making people look will think a no-no over their activities at curfews like this.


Suddenly the memory of the Storm for a moment wanders, allowing itself to sink into a memory of the past that sometimes haunts him, a long memory that almost never forget.


Flashbacks


Alfamart is different


downtown Jakarta.


"You want to pick something up?." The sound of someone breaking the silence, made the young Storm that had closed his eyeballs since earlier instantly open his eyeballs slowly.


Still in a slightly sleepy condition plus his head since earlier made him reluctant to come down with the man who was beside him, the man who was next to him, still while folding both his hands in front of his chest the storm shook his head then replied.


"Go I'm still pretty sleepy."


the man next to the storm only raised both his shoulders then he moved out of the car and down slowly from there. The young storm intended to come back to close his eyeballs but suddenly could be seen a bunch of children in Junior High uniform crossing the car he was riding in. The children reminded her of Anggun, her youngest sister whom she so longed for.


The only person who first wanted to be met was the spoiled and crybaby girl.


The storm noticed only a few children in Junior High uniform were slowly passing through his car, but 1 child was seen stopping his footsteps, choosing to stare because of the left and right sides around him, then suddenly the girl herself took out something inside her bag.


A small pink object appeared in the girl's hand, the next second the girl put the object on her lips.


"Railer, hurry-up," One shout rang out at the other end.


"Sana... Let me beautify my lips, see? they look sweet on my lips." The girl beside the Storm scolded while wagging her hands.


Rainbow, a beautiful name as beautiful as its people. She was exactly like her sister.


"Give it to me." Someone approached, trying to grab the object in the hand of the girl named Rainbow quickly, poking her lips towards the car window.


"Well, isn't there anyone in her?, what if there's someone?." Another young girl asked.


Children in Junior High uniforms, too snot boys but already busy making red on their lips, alternately use dye on their lips without knowing if there are men in there who screeched mocking their behavior.


The storm massaged his head, tried to ignore everyone and let them do the thing they wanted, as long as it didn't make the car blister, it wasn't his business.


After all was done, the girl named Rainbow was still standing beside him, making the Storm frown his forehead for quite some time.


In the next few seconds, the girl suddenly pushed her lips towards the car glass.


"What?." The storm scrunched his forehead.


The girl put a stamp on the glass of her car, the pink lip emblem right next to her left cheek.


"Oh shi-t." The man swore restrained, lowering the windshield of his car in a hurry.


"Huhhhh?!." He was shocked, displaying a panicked facial expression with a reddened face hue.


The storm did not budge for a moment, staring fixedly at the rainbow, only to see the girl's face clearly when opening the window of her car.


Well-favoured.


That's what's inside his head.


The girl as fast as lightning ran away from before her in the middle of the Storm which still could not neutralize her heartbeat.


"What's up?." And one voice surprised him.


*******


Back to the present


Still in Alfamart xxxxx


Jakarta.


The man breathed heavily, trying to grab a cigarette in his pants pocket but for a moment the man stopped his hand movements, only to remember he was out of cigarettes.


He massaged his head for a moment, choosing to get down slowly from the car and get up from there. He needs a cigarette to overcome his heavy thoughts.

On a different side, though,


In the same Alfamart.


Daisy is seen stepping her feet looking for something on the shelf on her right side, letting her eyeballs stare at some of the snack options she wants and then look for tissue for them later.


Behind her ear a bluetooth headset stuck there, she was seen talking to someone across the street.


"Following here?, I'm only here for 2 days, that's not long." Daisy spoke, grabbed a snack in front of her and moved in a different direction.


At the other end of the road, the Storm moves into Alfamart while trying to find the whereabouts of his younger sister.

Notes \=


Somebody asked Daisy it was a rainbow, didn't Mak?.


Her answer, well Daisy is Rainbow Mak.


Rainbow ga plastic surgery, her face remains rainbow but her appearance in the abis remodel, which is obviously much prettier, growing, with classy clothes. It's just that in the nose now there is a mole that was deliberately made by mistress Daniati by her surgeon to make Rainbow become somewhat different.


And Rainbow has forgotten the memory of well Mak, he has a character very different from the old him, Rainbow has a rather complicated temperamental, cold on the people around also mouthed spicy. His character is inversely proportional to the Rainbow in the past well Mak.
