The Moon Among the Stars

The Moon Among the Stars
135



Today was a happy day for Rara, but not for Kahfi. Rara who has been dressed very beautiful, wearing a very beautiful wedding dress. His smile did not disappear from his lips while staring at the mirror. Kahfi also wears a black suit and looks very handsome.


Unlike Ayumi who does not look excited and even looks very moody. It feels like he wants to disappear from the face of a lot of people so that Ayumi does not see the marriage of Kahfi and Rara, his best friend.


The moon rubbed Ayumi's back. He knew his friend was sad. What it was like to see with his own eyes, the man he loved married his best friend.


"Prophey Ay," said the Moon whispered softly.


Ayumi turned to the Moon and hugged her best friend. The tears that had accumulated on her eyelids could no longer be held back by Ayumi. One blink of an eye made those tears glow and descend on her smooth cheeks. Kahfi saw that stifling sight from behind the bedroom door. Kahfi's head was raised up to be invisible if he was also sad. If only in the middle room it was not crowded, maybe Kahfi had approached Ayumi and hit the girl he loved very closely and said in a loud voice that he loved Ayumi very much. But, whatever was his destiny was impossible to return with a time machine.


"Ojumi? Why sweetheart?" ask Mother Icha who sat next to Ayumi. Mother Icha knows, Ayumi is crying.


"Ekhemc ... Ayumi misses Kak Afnan" said Ayumi lying.


"Oh my goodness, baby. Kirain why?" said Mother Icha smiled and hugged Ayumi tightly.


Ayumi is getting tormented but AYumi has to endure the tightness in her chest and try to calm her heart so that everything looks good.

"AH!!" all in unison spoke sacred words that sounded loud and echoed in Kahfi's ears.


Sontak Kahfi turned towards Ayumi who had been looking down since.


"Happy always. Sakinah, mawadah and warohmah yes, Ra," said Ayumi.


"Thank you, Ay. Thank you for this friendship, and only you who always understand me, Ay," said Rara Lirih.


"Sama -sama yes Ra. You're a great woman. Great women should be in the hands of the right men like Kak Kahfi. Brother Kahfi, don't make a cry Rara, yes. Just be careful," said Ayumi threatening. Kahfi only nodded small with a flat look.


It's hard to joke now, too. Ayumi prefers to keep her distance and finish her studies. Or did Ayumi just leave? Looking for a new world to forget all this? And Brother Afnan?


Ayumi took off her embrace from Rara's body and smiled sweetly as she wiped away the remaining tears on Rara's cheeks.


Ayumi sat back in the chair and enjoyed the dishes. Actually there is no taste but this is all forced.


***


The next morning, everyone woke up during the day because they were tired all night staying up until morning.


Ayumi is gone and leaves a letter on the dresser. Ayumi wants to find her own life to forget her past and become a new figure with a new sweet story. Inevitably, AYumi must erase the beautiful memories that are engraved throughout her life story.


"Ofyou!!" shouted Mother Icha after reading a letter from Ayumi.
