THE HIDDEN MENTARY

OTHER SIDE

"Darling, make up for tonight. Make up for everything. Makasi, makasi and makasi. I don't know what else to say." Kenzo said non-stop.

Andara and Kenzo were already in the car. After the farewell party was over, they took pictures with friends and cleaned up a little of their luggage.

"Udah deh Ken, from that moment it was mulu. Bosen knows not." Andara Whine.

"Let's not bosen, we take a walk first yuk? Where do you want to go, honey? This is my thanks." Kenzo said sincerely.

Andara turned her body to face Kenzo. He took a deep breath.

"Ken, can we help each other without the need to think about giving a reply from every help we receive? You helped me a lot, but you never asked for a reply. Now that I'm helping you, can you behave accordingly? I mean, without you feeling the need to repay me?" Andara railed against Kenzo with various questions.

Kenzo fell silent, pervading every word of Andara. He hugged Andara and said, "lovely gift, to be with me always. Can we keep going like this? I don't think I can be far from you. You really are my own brand of tranquilizer."

Andara chuckled at Kenzo's statement.

"Ken, what a big pinter, learn from where?"

"Learning from Andara Atmajaya." Kenzo answered ketus.

Andara chuckled at Kenzo's upset voice. He touched his shoulder, rubbed it slowly. The girl felt Kenzo's body stiffen.

"Are you feeling better, Ken? I'm here with you." Ask Andara with a smile.

Kenzo nodded, his hand clasping Andara's hand on his shoulder. Turn your head and lightly kiss your hand.

"I'm fine, as long as you're with me. Where are we going now, baby?" Kenzo's question distracts you.

"Hmm I don't know either. Do you know of a quiet and beautiful place?"

"My room?" Kenzo teases Andara.

"Aawws.. Sweetheart! Sick tau." Kenzo's voice broke the silence of the night. Andara hit hard on Kenzo's arm.

"You're the one, pervert, carry on." Andara protest.

"Hahaha, you are so funny. How brave I am to touch you. Can be slit in fact with Mami Papi and Daddy Mother. Could be directly crossed off the list of daughter-in-law dreams Yang." Kenzo chuckles.

"Hm.. Well, since you're adorable, I'd like to take you to a super beautiful place, would you?" Ask Kenzo.

Andara nodded in agreement. Kenzo drove his car away from Granatala High School. The school that led him to meet a path of fate he never imagined.

***

"Walphaahh.. This is so cool Ken!" Andara shouted while running out of the car. He stood on the side of the road slightly uphill and spread out his hands, feeling the breeze of the night wind that hit his body.

Kenzo came from behind, draped his jacket over Andara's body while hugging the tiny body tightly.

"Don't let you get cold." Kenzo Whispers.

Youara flinched, feeling Kenzo's warm body embracing her. He refused, enjoying everything.

"Where do you know this place Ken?" Andara asked with eyes still looking at the expanse of trees below her and the sparkling stars above them. As if at the end of it, the trees and stars were fused together.

Kenzo leaned his body against his car by pulling Andara to take part. The two of them remained hugging each other while staring at the expanse of stars.

"It's called a starry hill, I named it that way. You see, there the tree seemed to merge with the starry night sky. It's beautiful, isn't it?" Kenzo did not answer your question, his eyes still enjoy the beauty of nature in front of him.

"You know, baby, I'm having a hard time sleeping. Sometimes I come here. Until I felt sleepy and tired, I just went home. I'm afraid of the dark, as you know, but I like the darkness that's here. Very calm. At first I was scared, but I tried to find my limit. Weird right?" Kenzo Imbuh. You are silent and just listening.

"For me it's like therapy. My shallow mind concluded, if I am not afraid of the dark here, it should be somewhere else I will not be afraid of the dark anymore. I kept looking for answers to my curiosity. I keep looking for dark differences here and elsewhere. Until I found the answer a moment ago." Kenzo is back.

"So what's the difference that you found Ken?" Andara could not help her curiosity.

Kenzo tightened his arms.

"Beauty and warmth." Answer Kenzo briefly.

"Huh?" Andara confusion.

"On this starry hill, though dark and cold, I found beauty. At first I was afraid, but my fear was disguised by the beauty presented. Slowly, the fear disappeared, changing with admiration." Kenzo.

"If the darkness is somewhere else?" Andara asked back.

Andara. The girl thought hard about Kenzo's words.

"But I still don't understand Ken. What the hell do you mean?" Andara is still curious.

"Hahaha kepo." Kenzo Temptation.

"Basic! I'm really curious to know Ken! Hmm Ken, if you've found a cure for your trauma, I can't help you anymore dong." Andara sounded grumbling.

Kenzo smiled in the dark. His head rests on your shoulder, his nose is close to your ear. The man was inhaling the fragrance of the girl he was holding. Trying to tell his brain to remember the fragrance that was in his arms.

"Well, you don't know what the hell? Several times my trauma recurred when I knew you and it was all resolved with only one way out." Kenzo hung up his sentence.

Andara still seemed to think hard.

"When I got stuck in the elevator at grandpa's company, I could get away with it because of what?" Kenzo asked, trying to remind.

Andara thought again.

"Ah I remember. You told me that you saw my picture on your phone." Andara immediately replied as her memories of that day appeared.

"Hmm really," said Kenzo, "and today, on stage, what brought me to my senses? Though you know for yourself, no one's kids can catch me, right?" Kenzo Imbuh.

Andara thought and after collecting the pieces of her memory, she smiled silently.

"Don't smile for yourself, I know you're smiling now. I know you have the answer, right?" Guess Kenzo.

Andara nodded. Kenzo smiled and kissed Andara's right cheek.

"Yes you're right. The darkness elsewhere seems like it would be easy for me to face, if I were with you, or seeing you whether it was just a photo or you straight away, and even your voice! You are the warmth and beauty for me."

"Somewhat caused all this. But I was grateful when I realized this immediately. Maybe it was because my subconscious told me that there was a girl I loved, that I had to take care of and protect, so my brain told my soul to calm down."

"Therefore, I always ask you to stay by my side. You can tell I'm selfish. But let it be, 'cause I don't want to lose you, baby. Besides because I sincerely love you, you also turned out to be my own sedative. Only mine. You see, as long as I have you, I don't need a sedative anymore, even my head doesn't feel any pain." Kenzo ends the story.

Without feeling the tears Andara has escaped. It's a beautiful night for Andara. The highly anticipated end of school. The end of school that suits his dreams, effective and full of meaning. Make memories with friends and loved ones. It was an unforgettable experience for you.

"Ken, can you open your card now?" Andara asked.

Kenzo scrunched his forehead. Confused by the words of Andara who did not respond to his story.

"That's my card, why are you telling me to open it now anyway? It's up to me to open when baby!" Kenzo's voice was a little high. His heart was still upset because Andara did not ignore his words in the least.

"I told you Kenzo, it's a gift for you but you just borrowed it from me." Andara explained again by emphasizing the word borrowing.

Kenzo snorted, annoyed with Andara's behavior.

"There are people who give gifts but the status is only a loan. What the hell is it? So curious." Kenzo said with annoyance.

He immediately took off his arms and walked to open the back door of his car. Take the chocolate box that contains her graduation gift. Kenzo took the box in front of Andara.

"This kadoku? But I pinjem? So when I open it I return it to you?" Read Kenzo in disbelief.

Andara looked up at Kenzo's reaction. The girl could only nod eagerly to answer any questions from Kenzo. And all that pissed off Kenzo.

"Huh okay. Open it and return it to its owner. Eh Yang, really got it back? You'll be a stint!" Kenzo.

"Eh amit-aziet. Don't let it. Anyway, backin will be opened, and you also have your own." Andara screaming.

Kenzo frowned more and more. The man thought hard to guess his graduation gift.

"What the hell is Yang? It's getting weird. This what? Not the real thing, right?" Kenzo hesitated to open it. He wiggled his box, from slow to fast. Hoping to guess the contents of the sound caused.

"Think of not going anywhere Kenzo!! If you don't want to open it, come back." Andara is upset. His hand was about to grab the brown box back, but it was immediately raised higher by Kenzo.

"No, this is my card. Yes, yes, it will be returned. I open it." Kenzo said half a sewot.

Kenzo took the box down. It was placed in the front of the car.

"Remain open now continue directly behind?" Once again Kenzo made sure.

You nod with the accompanying ******* rude from Kenzo. Kenzo slowly opened the ribbon on top of the box. The man touched the box cover and opened it. He looked at the contents in the box. His body froze, his eyes staring intently at the inside of the box. Kenzo was still silent looking at the contents of his graduation gift.
