The Past...Ye

"Hey.." said Mayra when she met Abay sitting by the pool when they finished dinner.

"What daydream? For - for dong.." he said again, then sat down next to Abay.

"No.. Why dream too? Oh yeah, you told your mom you were here?"

Mayra nodded with a smile, "That's it.."

For a moment both of them were just silent, struggling with their respective minds. Abay wants to contact Runa and Mayra is confused to express her feelings to Abay.

Finally Abay sent a short message to Runa that only contained question marks, again. Mayra actually felt like she was being ignored, but she tried to be ordinary.

"Babies...."

Abay wakes up because he ignores Mayra for a moment, because he typed a message for Runa earlier.

"Mm.iya sorry. Why?" tanya Abay then turned her body to face Mayra. Mayra became misbehaved and her tongue became stiff.

"It feels like we haven't been like this in a long time. I remember when we were in High School. We often spend the night on my roof, looking at the stars, singing - singing is not clear..." Mayra smiled as she recalled her memories with Abay.

"Yes, sometimes you cry indistinctly. Because there was not a single star in the sky but a moment later it was silent. Don't know it's even sleeping, continue to be me who is difficult to wake up..." Abay chuckles.

"Where do you drool again..."

Mayra's eyes glared, "Oh.masa? No idea, just anyhow!"

"Yey, he doesn't believe me. You know what, wong you're sleeping..." Abay now laughs loosely, remembering the school days with Mayra. And so is Mayra. Until the end of his eyes water.

"So want to go back to that time, if only you could." he said as his laughter weakened.

"You cry May?" abay asked, then he brought his face closer to Mayra, making sure what he saw were tears coming out of Mayra's eyes.

"It's not that many stars in the sky, try to see." he said to Mayra. Mayra looked for a moment at the sky that was filled with stars. But that's not really what Mayra was crying about.

"Hey...." Abay then grabbed Mayra's bowed face hiding her face.

"You really cry? Why anyway? Dong's story, who knows I can help.."

Instead of easing Mayra's tears are flowing more and more. Is he willing to express his feelings? Would he be able if Abay would reject him? Possibilities - those are the possibilities that continue to haunt Mayra.

Abay then wipes Mayra's tears, leading her to lean on Abay's shoulders.

Mayra's lips were still with the rest of the tears on her cheeks, hearing the last sentence from Abay's mouth. Then closed his eyes, feeling the warm embrace that flowed Abay from the soft caress on his back.

"You are big now. My hand reached this loh pegel nahan your body.." said Abay immediately make Mayra wake up from the crib Abay and pinch Abay's stomach as follows. Make Abay complain.

"Well, this new name Mayra Ajeng Kartika full of smiles, always cheerful.."

Mayra chuckles.

Then he exhaled, "Cape also turned grim?" said laugh.

"Yey, so who told you to cry?"

"You.."

Abay speechless. "I? So you cry because of me? Why did I make you cry?" Abay's face turned serious.

Mayra fell silent, looking at Abay's face before her now. You, who messed with my heart, made it weird. Makes my brain not work perfectly, it's because there's only you from the past until now. If only you knew.....

"May..? Tuh.. So really, because of me? I ask you to forgive me for making you so rich.." Abay grabbed Mayra's hand, grasping it tightly.

Don't take your hand out Bay... Mayra looked at her hand held by Abay.

Mayra then laughed. Past laughing. "Your eyes?"

Abay was silent to see Mayra who arrived - suddenly laugh at him, what is funny?

"You know me, right? Look out for you, huh?" Abay stands after Mayra, who has already escaped from Abay. Finally before reaching the back, Abay was able to grab Mayra's hand and make her almost fall. Instantly, Abay also grabbed his body. For a moment it only happened to look at each other, which managed to make Mayra's heart beat rhythmically.

"You're okay, aren't you?" ask Abay. Mayra nodded.

"Yes, if that's what you're resting for. You must still be cape, right? Good nights..."

Mayra smiled, "Good night".

Abay returns to her room and Mayra sleeps with a happy heart, especially tonight.
