The Moon in the Sky

The Moon in the Sky
The Forty Eight



Full Moon. The woman was sitting staring at the reflection of her face on the large mirror of the dressing table in the room. Thin makeup strokes adorn her beautiful face. He should be happy with the day of application that today is held. However, his heart felt bland. There's no impression of being okay. Especially happiness. He clearly cannot feel. How can the Moon be happy if someone is heartbroken by a proposal by the Blue Sky today. The one who called him two days ago last. A young man who is kind hearted, is being overwhelmed with sadness when he listens to what answers are thrown from his mouth related to questions about feelings of love.


Yes, the Moon could not have told Jupiter if she loved the young man. Not the Moon plan to be able to sway a person's feelings. The Moon admits that it likes Jupiter. Liking does not mean love. Because his love is admiring. If love .. I don't know. The moon didn't know if he felt it because when he tried to study it further in his heart there was no strange vibration he felt. Make the Moon doubt if he must confess that he loves Jupiter.


'Peter 'S. Ii'm sorry. I don't know if there's any love for you. Obviously, I'm glad I got to know you. I admire you so loving. But ... I can't tell you if I really love you or not. Because I myself am also confused to dive into my feelings.'


That's what the Moon gave Jupiter. The moon thinks Jupiter will be mad at him. However, it turned out that the man was willing to accept his decision even with a feeling of disappointment.


'I understand, Moon. May the decision you make by accepting Heaven .. bring happiness to many.' Jupiter replied in a soft tone full of disappointment.


But the moon can no longer do anything. Let Jupiter be disappointed in him for now. One day Moon was convinced that the young man would find the best woman who would be his life partner.


"Month ... are you ready?"


The sound of the room door opening as well as the call heard in the ears, jolted the woman's daydream. There was Mommy Alisha who entered and stood behind the Moon. Reviewing the smile looked at her daughter who always looked beautiful in her eyes.


"Why don't you come out?"


"His guest has come, Mom?"


They both looked at each other through the mirror. Alisha reviews smiles. He knows his daughter's heartbreak. However, someone who enters the phase of marriage has a feeling of fret. The natural thing.


"Already since. Aya. Mommy thinks you're still not finished decorating yourself. Apparently we are daydreaming here. What was? Is there something you are thinking about, baby? Mommy knows she's really worried. But just calm down. Everything will go well.


The Moon said, 'And Mommy knows about Jupiter. Ah, I don't know."


"Come on. Mommy will be with you. We'll meet Mr. Eagle and his parents. Don't let them wait too long."


The moon nodded and then moved from sitting. Led by Alisha, the two exited the room to the living room where they were all gathered together.


The moon is on the threshold of the living room. Look at the guests nervously. One by one they scanned. And of the five guests he was with, only Sky, Aya and Jupiter he knew. While two people with the equivalent age of the Mommy, can Moon make sure that they are both Blue Sky parents.


The light was the first to greet him. Because the girl was very enthusiastic about the proposal this time. That way the step to have the Moon as his mother will be done a little more.


"Silver Moon! I miss you so much with my sister." Standing up and running greeted the Moon who was still standing in silence.


"Hi, Aya." That was all the Moon could say because her heart suddenly thumped so fast when she accidentally blotted her beautiful net with the sharp eyes of the Blue Sky. Moon gulps. Distracting his view and unfortunately now meet the view of Jupiter. Shady eyes that look cute. He could hurt Jupiter. The Moon does all this also for the sake of the Light who wishes her much.


"So .. is this the Full Moon that the Eagle is going to apply for tonight?" Surya Alam who had been watching at last took a vote.


Mighty Earth chuckles. Then he said, "Yes, Mr. Surya. He is the Full Moon. My only daughter."


"That's pretty. And still very young. Is it true that the Moon wants to be married by my son who already bears the status of a widower?" It was disrespectful because Surya said so. However, the middle-aged man was not sure if the girl who was going to be proposed was still this young.


"If I had given up the decision entirely on the Moon." Bumi answered and turned the heads of his daughter and wife. "Moon, why are you still standing there. Come, comehere. Sit here."


Alisha takes the Moon sitting next to Daddy Earth.


The Light sits beside the Sky and is flanked by Jupiter.


The young man's heart was honestly not very fine. He should have been in the Sky position to propose to the Full Moon. Unfortunately, he lost quickly. His cousin was more courageous to take a stand. And he admits he lost in women's affairs. Jupiter's heart gave up the Moon for Heaven. But it feels really hard.


In the talk of fellow parents, Jupiter was not consensual at all. The young man was busy glancing at the silent-looking Moon and many looked down. Then he stared at the Light whose face was very sparkling if he was happy. Jupiter took a breath. Alright. For the sake of Light he had to give in.


Furthermore, there is a sky that also did not escape the attention of Jupiter. His cousin also looked flat on his face. Jupiter cannot judge whether the sky is happy or vice versa.


In silence, Jupiter thought again. Does Heaven do all this for the Light. In the sense of Light that forces the cousin to marry the Moon because Jupiter knows very well how Light really likes the figure of the Full Moon.


.... She should be what now? Scooping the face rough. Trying once more to make peace with his heart.
