THE PERFECT TIME TO DIE

THE PERFECT TIME TO DIE
(CHAPTER 4) THE RETURN OF THE TIME-BURNING MACHINE



THE RETURN OF TIME-BURNING MACHINES.


My time is slow, day by day changing. And I just watched my dad's old movie, which I don't know how many times I've seen before. And after three days of drifting, with no direction and no purpose, the day I was waiting for arrived.

And after three days of drifting, with no direction and no purpose, the day I was waiting for arrived.


I see the school looks quiet, it seems I came to school too early today. In the classroom, I saw the benches were still stacked neatly on the table, and the whiteboard was still telling the teaching-learning process three days ago.


Unknowingly, I took the phone in my pocket and photographed it. Even though I don't intend to read or learn. It's just, I want it. I walked to where I sat.


I sat in the back of the classroom, the safest and most comfortable place for me to sleep. I lowered my bench and sat down. There were shortly footsteps walking towards the classroom, and I saw it was Keira.


With her tied hair like a ponytail, as well as the pink shoes that she wears, it looks fitting and harmonious with the school uniform that she wears. Keira looks beautiful today. Keira is my classmate and she is also the most popular student in school.


Keira has white skin, and her hair is straight, not too tall and not too short. All those aspects are what makes it a prima donna in school. A lot of students at my school are racing to win her heart. Besides being beautiful, she is also smart. In addition to being active in the organization, Keira served as an OSIS secretary at school.


Another word that describes him, is he is perfect.


Keira walks into the classroom and walks towards her seat. Since our eyes met, I tried to be friendly by smiling at him.


But after I did that, I immediately regretted it, because he just coldly looked at me. Keira's seat, three benches from my stool.


And how shocked he was as he sat down and put his bag down, without warning he suddenly turned his head towards me.


“Eh ... What's your name? please take it absent dong in teacher's room.” Pinta Keira with a cold face.


I also forgot to bring a tie, I was afraid of getting foul points.


“Ehmm, Rasha. Please take absent dong in teacher room.” Said Keira again.


I went back to silence and pretended not to hear. And I saw him getting emotional, before long Keira started to get off her bench, and walked towards me.


Just sigh, knowing this matter will enlarge. I really just want to live quietly in school. I also thought, I should just agree to ask for it earlier, so that this business does not become long.


And after he got to my desk, Keira beat my desk with anger. And when I saw his eyes, my vision of his future appeared.


**


In a corner of the hospital, in the morgue. Keira cried, in front of a bed with a white cloth on it. At that place, she was crying alone.


He continued to say regretful words, and I saw a boy with no life under the white cloth. I was surprised to see that, seeing the terrible picture of his future.


In the future, Keira must lose her child, lose her baby.


And when I woke up, I saw Keira in front of me. The shocked me pushed him away from me.


Due to the strength of my impulse, Keira fell to the floor. He looked surprised, and before long he looked at me and then he cried. Seeing that, I, who was still shaken by the future I had just seen, did not know what to do. And with no feelings, I just left her.


In the middle of my steps, guilt began to approach. I really did not intentionally do it. This is what makes me not want to be friends with anyone.


Having a friend, sharing laughter or just sharing complaints about school. For me it was something impossible to achieve, because later the vision would take them away from me, like my loved ones.
