Clara POVs.

My tears broke, flooding these cheeks as soon as I saw Dave and Dana's name engraved on each of those gravestones. The two brothers that I used to bully and I jahili are now gone.

For years I tried to find information about both of them and about his family. Until the last thing I heard about when they moved overseas after both of their parents died. Then this time, how surprised I was that I could only meet with the tombstones of the two of them. Though I haven't had time to apologize to them for my mischief before.

“I can ask you something?” Haikal slightly let go of his hold on me then pulled my chin to look at his face. “What's that important they make you?”

The look in his eyes frightened me, I spontaneously turned and hugged him, then said, “I haven't had time to offer my apology to the two of them. Because I always fucked him. Make her childhood not as beautiful as other children's childhood.”

“Only that? I want you to be honest with me, whatever it is. Even if it includes your past. Everything was. I won't change my decision to marry you.”

I slowly rubbed these tears and released my arms to her. Staring intensely at his two eyeballs that were so clear and shining. While gathering my courage to tell a secret that for many years I have been alone.

“Da when I was a kid .. I don't know what love is. All I know is affection, as my father and mother often give me. Then I got to know them both at the age of five,” I obviously told Haikal while occasionally turning to the two tombs in turn.

Haikal just nodded then went back to listening to my story about this Winston brother. I went back to explaining to her that at that time I did not know what the appropriate name for my feelings was. Obviously, I always felt like I wanted to protect Dana from Dave.

Wh why?

Because Dana is like a quiet child but from both eyes looks as if she is depressed. It was as if there was a big secret that he was hiding alone.

Shouldn't kids our age be playing in the park? Joking around with other friends. Cycling around the housing complex with joy. But not with Dana, she's always moody. And I concluded myself, if she must have been under pressure from her brother, Dave. Because Dave seemed powerful as a kid.

So from then on, I always bothered Dave if he was playing in the park, to have Dave turn his attention to me. And from then on, for the first time I saw a smile on the corner of Dana's face. Which makes me addicted to pranking Dave, just so Dana's happy.

“Then?”

I looked at Haikal. “Until finally father and mother took me to move to the house now. It wasn't just our family that moved out and left the housing complex. But also the families of my other friends. Only their families survive there.”

“You ever asked me why my father and mother took you to move that time?” ask Haikal again.

I shook my head. “I don't want to know the reason. What I think is clear is that it must be an adult. So until now I've never been the same father.”

“Why? You're not curious?”

“I think it must have something to do with their deviant behavior. Which makes you family should do all this to both of them. So better, just get here I know about them.” I turned back to look at the two tombs.

While back shedding tears and shouting inwardly apologizing to the two of them. Sighing, I put down one by one the bouquet of flowers that Haikal bought for them.

Again Haikal hugged me from behind and pinned his face on my shoulders. “Sorry to both of them for causing trouble in your family. Maybe they lost their way, but I'm sure .. basically, they're both good men. Sorry about them?” I whispered and turned to look at Haikal's face at such a close distance.

“They are good ...” The voice of a woman behind us made Haikal and I gasp in shock and turned and Haikal let go of the embrace.

We found the figures of Tika and Lisa who stood together with a bouquet of flowers in their hands.

“I'm definitely the one who made them both so lost and outrageous like that. I caused all the chaos that happened. Maybe if I thought clearly, the two of them would still be—”

I nodded slowly as I stood up, helped by Haikal's helping hand.

True what Tika said, at peace with yourself. That's all I have to do to accept the departure of Dave and Dana. There should be no guilt in this mind just because the word 'sorry' has not been spoken directly.

At this moment, even the sound of Lisa's sobs could be heard in Tika's arms. “Already, Lis, until when will you continue this way? I'm sure, the two of them must also be sad to see you continue to cry for them. And right now you have to keep Alex feeling. He loves you sincerely.” Tika tries to calm Lisa down.

“No man will be willing if his woman cries, especially if crying for another man who is not himself. You have to take care of Alex,” added Tika again.

Upon hearing that, I immediately recalled Haikal's question a few minutes ago. When I cried for Dave and Dana, she asked how important they were to me. Is that an implied expression of her pain in me crying over another man?

I looked at Haikal's face, which was staring at Lisa and Tika, and then immediately I clenched his body, leaning my head right on his chest. Haikal returned my embrace and gave a kiss at the top of my head.

Lisa and Tika approach the Winston brothers' tomb. Then Tika placed her bouquet on Dana's grave, stacked with our bouquet of flowers. And Lisa put her bouquet of flowers on Dave's grave which was also piled with a bouquet of flowers from us.

And suddenly Lisa said, “Sorry I wasted you. Not trusting your confession. Even I did not dare to meet you back then. I assumed you had left me and chose to play with another man. If I knew that you were living such a heavy life, maybe—” Lisa did not continue her own words and she cried again.

A little, I already know their stories. Because sometimes Haikal tells me. Only, Haikal always did not want to say the name of Dave and Dana. Until I finally found out about it today.

Again, I remembered Tika's words, if we can't always feel guilty. And for me we can't blame each other either. There's no point in any of that. It is better to try to improve and become a better person than before.

Not for others, but do it for yourself. Because by learning to love yourself, it will automatically bring peace with yourself. And automatically it will have a positive impact on yourself.

As the saying goes, 'what you plant, then that's what you pick'.

So to me, wherever this foot is, spread out as much goodness as possible, but never think of picking the result first, for the result will come by itself, at the right time and with the right people.
