THE END OF OUR STORY
Mused
Coming out of the library with the Clouds, Aurora who was still busy putting books into her bag felt shocked when she heard someone calling her name.
“Aurora!”
Looking towards the voice and recognizing the owner, Aurora smiled. The clouds glanced at the corner of his eyes trying to assess the meaning of Aurora's smile.
Bima stepped closer, smiled slightly and nodded at the Clouds next to Aurora, then turned her attention to Aurora who was now standing opposite to her.
“From library?”
“Iya, Mas. Mas Bima want to go to the library?”
A smile was engraved on Bima's lips while staring fixedly at Aurora. “Mmm, not really. You were looking for you.”
The clouds glanced back at Aurora, her heart starting to feel unsettled. “Who the hell is he?”
Aurora who was not aware that the clouds were disturbed even let out a laugh to reply to Bima's words. “What's up, Mas.. nyariin me.”
The clouds felt Aurora's laughter sound too crisp and her tone was too spoiled. “Sabar, Wan. Patience...,” neatly in the heart trying to master yourself. Unfortunately his ego also began to demand, colliding with his efforts to be calm. “You are dicuekin, Wan.... kok Aurora does not recognize you?”
The sound of Bima's laughter was heard. “No, nothing. Just want to chat with Aurora.”
The last sentence of the Milky Way is able to move the hand of the Cloud touching the soft arm of Aurora, trying to remind Aurora that when it was there herself beside the Aurora.
The touch was invisible to Bima, but enough to resuscitate the Aurora. Soon he introduced the Clouds to Bima.
"Oh yes Mas Bima, introduce this Mas Awan. which yesterday I said was Ph.D.”.
Aurora smiled as her eyes met the eyes of Clouds. In his heart Awan added his own sentence Aurora, “..
“Oh hi, I Bima .. again join the training here.” His hand-shake was warm and friendly which made the Clouds feel bad. He also tried to reply with the same warmth while conveying greetings introductions, “Oh yes, I Awan .. earlier Au had said yes, I again Ph.D.”
“Assyik also yes, many Indonesians turned out. Every year is that?” Bima asked the clouds.
“Ya .. is good, every year there are at least 2 people from Indonesia. In fact, he said he had reached dozens of people.”
“Woow, dozens ... lots of it.” Bima smiled at the mangosteen, then moved her gaze towards the Aurora. “This is college or where, Aurora?”
“You know!” cloud replied in his heart a little upset, but on his face a thin smile remained drawn.
“Lecture, Mas .. under.” Aurora looked at her watch, only 5 minutes left. “Eh already want to enter, Mas ..” his eyes look at Bima, “I first yes.”
“Oh, okay .. happy college yes.” Bima threw a smile at Aurora, who in the Cloud's eyes at the time seemed to be made too sweet so disturbing.
Aurora returned Bima's smile and just nodded her head slightly towards the Clouds. He then raised his hand waving towards Clouds and Bima while stepping his foot swiftly towards the elevator.
“Eeee ... really yes, go straight away aja.” The clouds did not expect the Aurora to pass by without saying a word to her. His heart felt pinched as he felt Aurora ignore him.
The clouds immediately turned their head towards Bima and said, “I am also first huh. See you soon.” Although his heart was uncomfortable, he still tried to be polite to Bima.
“Oh yes .. see you soon. Would like to also chat more casually.” Bima patted Cloud's arm softly before the Clouds left her alone.
The clouds rushed towards the elevator and chose the button to the top. His feet were swaying, waiting impatiently. The look on his face clearly showed that there was something going back and forth in his mind. The elevator that awaited has not arrived, the clouds have changed their minds. This time he pushed the button down. His intention to go to the Social Room was canceled, his heart chose to go straight to the apartment.
Inside the elevator the cloud transcribed text messages through its HP.
‘I didn't wait ya... go straight home.’
With a single touch, the message was sent to Aurora.
The clouds arrived at his apartment faster than usual because along the way he was trying to pedal his bike at high speed. Fortunately the universe supported his efforts, the streets were low enough so he could cycle smoothly. Although arriving with gasps but the clouds actually feel relieved, the burden felt lost. Adrenaline that was on campus had increased now gradually normal, replaced by breathing hard due to fatigue.
After bathing and freshness returned, Clouds laid back on the sofa and his mind returned to the campus. In her calm state she only realized how weak she was when she saw Aurora look familiar to other men she did not know.
“Maybe like that too, Aurora feels when she sees me again chatting with Samantha.”
He also returned to review trying to find answers, what caused it so unacceptable to see the proximity of Aurora and Bima.
“First, probably because I don't know who he is. If Aurora is familiar with Singgih, Luke, or Iqbal, or even with other country friends I already know, maybe I won't be this fancy. Second, maybe because Aurora didn't tell me about her encounter with Bima. Is it because it doesn't matter to Aurora, or because she doesn't want me to know? I don't know the answer yet.”
Third, maybe this is the most influential, is it because I am afraid of losing Aurora huh? I don't trust myself or I don't trust Aurora?”
The clouds quickly dispelled the bad thoughts that flashed through his mind. “No. I have full trust in Aurora.”
His inner voice also began to speak, “You are afraid of losing him because you have waited too long, Wan ...” Realizing that Cloud's lips were interested in forming a smile. “Iya also yes, many years I pendam .. now it can, it feels not willing if you have to miss.”
Trings. The sound of incoming messages breaks the cloud's daydream. He opened his HP, saw the incoming message that turned out to be from Aurora.
Aurora: Just finished college, Mas. I'll go to the Cloud.
The clouds smiled again, this time wider. She missed Aurora. The clouds immediately rose, tidied up his room, and prepared to wait for Aurora's arrival. He impatiently wanted to finish his heartbreak immediately.
