The Sky for Luna
S 2'S. Chapter 25's
Chapter 25: The Sadness
"If grief can be shared, give it all to me." - El-El.
El couldn't bear to see her little girl crying. The sound of his sobs rang out and it tore at his heart. It also broke his feelings and scratched his pride. As a husband, he felt unable to protect the most important person in his life.
"Luna...." El stroked Luna's head as gently as he could, caressing her very carefully as if it was the most fragile thing in the world.
"I'm sorry..." El took a long breath. "Sister should never take you there again." he said.
Luna opened both her hands, showing her face. He did not care anymore how El would see his face that would not be beautiful when crying. His eyes had turned red and swollen, his nose was not much different. His cheeks were already sticky due to the flow of tears that did not stop earlier.
"Hiks... no. What.. sis..." Luna's voice was disjointed with the sound of a sobbing. He wiped the edge of his eyes that had already piled up again.
"I. yang.. maksa..." Luna took a breath. "No, nothing wrong..." Luna tried to stop her crying.
"No need to hold it. Cry again until you are satisfied dear," said El while continuing to caress Luna.
"Ta-ta-but. just a second.. again... we... until..." Luna had already memorized the road leading to El's house. "I.. shame.. same... mami..." Luna said softly. Yesterday when he was sick, he was so spoiled for mami, what now he has to be a crybaby too? Luna felt herself far from the word grown-up.
El smiled at hearing that. "If you are embarrassed, later when you get out of the car, just run to the room."
Actually El was just kidding, but it turned out that Luna actually did it. He was left behind because Luna was running so fast.
The bedroom door opens, and El finds Luna sitting on the sofa turning on the television. He was confused as to why Luna turned it on, but it turned out only to cover up the sound of her stuffing.
"Sister.sorry..I still want to cry.." said Luna. "Can..?" tanyakanya.
El sat down next to Luna and answered. "Can..."
He held Luna's waist with both hands, and then pulled Luna's small body over her lap. "You like it like this, don't you?" El remembers how Luna was spoiled to mami yesterday, cute and adorable at the same time.
Luna hugged El's neck tightly. "Hmmm.." he nodded later.

El turned the pen in his hand, seemingly thinking of something.
"Sir, I'm here, you know." Reza told El. "I need your attention and your signature for that, you know..." Reza pointed to the document that had been in front of El.
"Reza, have you ever had a boyfriend?" ask El.
What's the point, not a quick signature! Reza curses annoyance.
I don't have time to take care of that absurd love story.
Reza looked at El lazily. "Yes, sir." she replied. He decides to answer only El, so that he can be guaranteed to live until tomorrow.
El mangosteen. "If your boyfriend doesn't think you're a girlfriend?"
Especially this, God... He's again consulting my same love?!
"However, sir. I just broke up, find another boyfriend" replied Reza. Life, it's complicated.
"Hmmm..." El thought again. "If you still love him and can't stay with him how?" ask El. She believes Luna loves her family very much and does not want to be separated of course.
"Sorry, sir. I don't want to torture myself with an ambiguous word called love." Reza's answer was beyond El's estimation.
Reza glares. "What do you mean, anyway. Do you want me to break up with my family? Where was my fault, sir??"
El melengos's. Not the answer he wanted. He decided to follow Reza's will and immediately finished the papers in front of him. Reza immediately went outside the room. But when he came out, Kris went inside.
"Sir, I've found out..."
El waited for Kris to continue his sentence. Yesterday he couldn't bear to see Luna crying. He cried all night! It feels like El destroyed Luna's parents' house if she doesn't remember what Ethics and Order are.
He asked Kris to investigate Mother Luna. Why is his attitude always like that. Is Luna a pick-up boy? Or something was wrong with her until she hated her.
"Miss Luna, not Mr. Herman's son."
The tech!
The ballpoint pen El held broke in two in an instant. Not a real child. Luna is not the family's son. Now he understands the problem. In this case, he could without feeling guilty destroy the family as much as possible.
But, Kris seemed unfinished with her report. He looked at El for a moment before continuing his sentence, figuring out how angry the master in front of him was.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" ask El.
"Miss Luna...." Chris stopped for a moment.
"Say quick!" El was getting impatient.
"Miss Luna daughter Mother Goddess, mother."
"What do you mean?" El looked at Kris with a confused look. He doesn't understand. So is Luna really a real child or not? Which one is right?
"Don't joke, Kris. Quickly explain," said El impatiently. He stood up from his chair.
"Dewi's mother was pregnant before marrying Mr. Herman," said Kris slowly.
"CHA!!" El shouted in disbelief. Both of his hands were already holding his head and scrambling his hair in disbelief.
Just deserve. Just deserve. THAT'S APPROPRIATE.
"Find out who my wife's father is, QUICKLY!!!" El shouted out loud. Kris immediately withdrew from the front of El.
A mistake.
El finally understood why Mother Luna always behaved like that. Luna is a child she did not expect. Mistakes that should not be born into the world. But she was forced to give birth to him and Luna was recorded as the son of Herman. Somehow El has to take care of this problem. He did not want Luna to know the reality, but he also did not want his wife to continue to suffer from lamenting the attitude of her own mother. Which is better? Honesty or lies?
El smashes his desk, making a noise so Reza immediately runs into the room. Once again, Reza saw such a sight before him. The shattered items scattered on the floor, this time even worse.
Doubtful, Reza wanted to ask what was going on. But he decided to keep his mouth shut.
"I want to go" El took his coat and bag and stepped outside the room without waiting for a response.
Go then! It's better than destroying everything! I am the most tortured here!
Reza started picking up items that scattered one by one. He promised himself. He would put items made of super quality plastic to put on the El table, so that events like this would not be repeated in the future.
