Chapter 13: Feelings
"You can't choose who to fall in love with, but you can choose whether to continue or not." - Luna-Luna
Two days ago...
"Where's Arga?" asked Arsya who had just walked into the room after finishing her business in the toilet. The clock was showing at 10 p.m., but there was only an Ark in the room.
Arka looked over from her phone for a moment. "Most in Luna's room again" replied Arka.
"Neyes, ah." Arsya sneaked into Luna's room and peeked out from behind the door.
"You don't have to look!" arga's call shocked Arsya.
You guys?
Arka was behind him. "Aren't you going to sleep here again?" ask Arka.
Since when was he there?
"Whisper, sleep there" answered Arga. He closed the door tightly and locked it, not letting his sisters in.
Arga laid his body on Luna's bed. He dipped his face into the pillow, inhaling many of his sister's scent left there. Ah, maybe he's crazy but he really likes this smell.
Arga stroked a small, white stuffed cow next to him. The doll belonged to Luna, her first and only gift because Luna's birthday was never celebrated. I don't know if it was celebrated before she was born, but after she can remember, Luna and the party, never happened.
Arga kissed the cow longingly. He continued to caress the doll with thoughts that had already drifted far into their childhood.
"Don't you get ice cream?" Little Arga asked Luna who was holding her. Mother walked in front of them, carrying Arsya with one hand and leading Arka in the other.
"Why didn't you ask Mother?" ask Arga who is still curious.
"So, you're a big boy, you don't like ice cream" Luna replied with a smile.
Arga nodded. "If chocolate likes it?" tanyakanya.
Luna remained silent.
"School friends I love my chocolate. I'll give you brother later" said Arga. "Girlfriend I like to give a lot of food."
"Well, big sister likes ya..." Luna smiled and stroked Arga's head. "But it will be given to Arga, so Arga must finish. If not, then he'll be sad."
"Why?" ask Arga not understand.
"Because Arga is special to him. Big sister does not want to take a gift that is given to a special person with all her heart" replied Luna.
"Yes, later when I grow up I will love a lot of brown brother, special from me," said Arga smiling showing his teeth neatly lined up.
"Well, thank you." said Luna. "But you don't have to love your sister, keep it for you. There will also be someone who loves you..."
"Who?" ask Arga.
"Prince yang---
Arga forgot that part. What kind of prince? But even though he forgot, he always tried to be like the prince Luna wanted to be. Look now, he's this perfect, handsome and well-liked.
Arga got up and sat on the edge of the bed. After that he then walked to the study table and saw Luna's book one by one. Arga stared blankly at Luna's neatly arranged writing in her notebook, touching her softly, touching the uneven sheets of paper that Luna had written. Luna used to teach writing, drawing, to ride a bicycle. Do not ask what Mother did, she was busy with her two smaller siblings.
After being satisfied at Luna's study table, Arga opens Luna's wardrobe and picks up a shirt there. He went back to bed and lay down with the shirt covering his face.
Is he wrong to want to have Luna for himself? Since Arga knew what it was to love, it was Luna's shadow that always appeared in his mind. It may be wrong, but it's true.
As she was about to be carried away to dreamland, Arga heard a voice from outside the room. He glanced at his cell phone screen, at 1am.
Arga could hear Mother's voice faintly. He walked towards the door, straining his ears. But because the voice sounded so slow, Arga tried to open the door slowly without making a sound. He wanted to hear more and more.
"If you get fired how?" Mother made a stifled voice. "We still have four other kids, just let go of that one."
Arga knew what Mother meant, it must be Luna.
"What does Mother mean to release? Mother does not love Luna at all?" ask Dad.
"At the age of the present father, it is impossible to get a job!" Mother is getting impatient. "Dad you want us to starve to death?"
"It won't be like that" said Father trying to calm Mother.
"Daddy didn't hear what the woman said? We won't win against people like them!" mother's voice sounded louder, she was already carried away by emotions. "Stop worrying about it! He's not even your son!"
Mother's words made Arga open the door wide. "What did Mother just say?"

"Sir" Kris approached El, who was still busy checking e-mails on her desk chair. At 9am, it was time for Kris to report to Arga every day.
"Why? Just say..." El was still typing a few words in the tab he was holding.
Kris remained silent. El glanced at him for a moment, seeing that Kris was staring at Reza uncomfortably.
"Just ignore him" said El casually. Reza who knew that what he meant was that he was upset.
"Surely sure?" ask Kris. El nodded quickly.
"I've found the culprit. What should I do?" ask Kris slowly.
El looked upset. "Why are you asking again? Didn't I ever say?! You want me to repeat it?!!"
Kris was silent for a moment.
"Make him regret, break his legs and hands to make him deterred. Whatever, just so he can't die because he has to apologize" El said. His mood was bad because he had to work continuously without rest, and not meeting Luna made him a temperament.
Reza shuddered at hearing that. Actually what happened. What did the man do until El said so. Reza is afraid because he often threatens El. It turned out that his boss was terrible.
"But sir," Kris interrupted him. "Father needs to know who the person is," he said slowly.
"Who the hell?!" El sniffed. "Is he such an important person that I should know his name!" yells.
El put down his tab not happy. Now he looked at Kris. "Yes, quickly tell me who," said El. He's trying to be sane because it's still morning, let alone Reza there.
"Arga.." answered Kris.
BRACKET!
The tab on the table had already been smashed into pieces, El's hand was already bleeding.
Reza was shocked. He approached El. "Patience, sir." he said.
El looked at him sharply. "Why be patient?" his voice was ice cold now.
"You-maybe there's a reason or thing you don't know yet?" Reza tries to convince El, even though he doesn't know the real problem.
El laughed cynically. "TELL ME, DID YOU EVER INTEND TO RAPE YOUR OWN SISTER?!"
