The Tragedy of the Night

The Part 55

On the night, two women were standing on the balcony of the apartment. Both are compact to look at the sky, whatever is on their minds when looking at the heavenly objects that are emitting light.

They are both soluble in each other's minds. Moments later, Ibel awakens from her daydream, and the woman looks at Nisa beside her. A few seconds later he returned to the object he was thinking about, the moon.

"Sa! I've read an article that says if the moon will go to hell at the end of the day, is that true?" Out of nowhere the question came from, Ibel also just realized that if the question was so silly, where maybe the moon went to hell, they were just a sinless thing.

Nisa turned to Ibel, then she smiled at her friend. "Yes. Not only the moon goes to hell, but the sun too. My mother said it like that."

"Ja-so right? How can?"

"They are in hell not to be tormented, but to be fuel for the torture of sinners. Terrible right? Sometimes I think, I can't possibly get into God's Heaven. So many sins I have committed."

Ibel looked at Nisa while showing off her warm smile which was aimed at strengthening the woman. He rubbed Nisa's back full of tenderness, making the master feel at ease.

"Not Sa, I think so sometimes. Sa, did I see what you were doing to the same park boss? Just watch out for you guys doing weird shit, remember the apocalypse is near."

Nisa took a breath. He looked at the apartment garden which could be seen from the balcony of their apartment. I don't know, it was an event that made her happy or made her feel sad. He stared softly at the garden, a million memories of it, which he may not have forgotten.

"He expressed his feelings to me."

Ibel's reflex immediately dropped his phone he was playing on the floor, fortunately the phone did not crack. Until Ibel can breathe with relief.

"What's? You mean what? Boss actually noticed the feeling to elo? Do you accept it?"

Nisa closed her eyes while shaking weakly. He smiled wryly considering the incident, I don't know where to push him to reject the man's love. His heart also loved that man.

"Loh why? Isn't he your little friend?"

Nisa leaves the balcony while entering the apartment. He pulled one of the chairs on the dining table. Then he sat his ass there. He wandered for a moment, before he finally spoke up.

"She expressed her feelings to make me a boyfriend. I promised I wouldn't date for the rest of my life, and it didn't make me accept it, I remember when I was a kid, my mom told me I shouldn't date," he said while looking at the past when he was with his biological family.

He longs for those times, but time speaks that he cannot repeat to the past. Nisa laughs grimly, not even knowing where the graves of her parents and older brother are. Why is his life so worried? Questioning that is tantamount to opening up new wounds for the woman.

His life was filled with violence, murder, and abuse. Well Nisa never felt in that position. Until whenever he will never forget the three criminal acts that he has ever felt. And one of the causes of the destruction of his life was Arsen, the man who turned out to be very close to him, and because of that he was not ready to receive the love of the man.

She knew Arsen loved her. Nisa can see the sincerity in the man's eyes as he expresses his feelings, and Nisa can also see deep disappointment when she rejects the man's love. But his heart is not ready for it, he must really feel comfortable first against the man.

The arrow of the clock filled the room. No one opened their voices, the two women were enjoying their imaginary nature, the radiance of sadness was so obvious in the eyes of the two women. Nisa is thinking about her biological family that she misses so much at the moment, while Ibel does not know what is troubling her mind.

The woman who usually looked strong and firm, now she looked like she was helpless. Deep feelings of vulnerability in nature can change the personality of the woman. His eyes glanced out of the window, where he immediately met the sight of the moon shining outside. It was as if there was a picture that showed a family there that made Ibel smile at him. A second later the woman immediately widened her eyes as if in disbelief. Is his vision right? Ibel stared fixedly at the picture. He saw his parents there smiling at him, is that true?

"Sir Ibel what's latin on the moon? Like seriously?" Nisa followed Ibel's view of the moon, but there was nothing there.

"Sa, I see people know me."

"There's nothing, Sister Ibel." He looked back at the moon, the pain on his forehead was enough to explain if Nisa really did not understand the words of Ibel just now.

"So my vision was wrong?" Ibel said sadly, his voice as if holding back a cry, "Sa, I want to tell you if Grandma Miah died of a heart attack."

Kontan Nisa also directly looked at Ibel, although she wanted to get the happy news that Ibel brought home, it turned out that even the sad news that never stopped in Nisa's mind that she even got. Not long after the woman's tears shed, she couldn't bear to hold back her sobs. Why was he faced with bad news again?  He had just begun to forget everything he did not like in his life, but now what? It was as if fate had not allowed him to be happy.

"Sister. I-Ib-el, really? Hicks."

The nod from Ibel made Nisa immediately cry hysterically, she could not forget Miah's services to him. Nek Miah is a very valuable person in his life, it is Miah who strengthens him when his mental fall. One more thing that makes Nisa's heart like squeezed, why she is not there next to Grandma Miah for the last time.

The chirping of birds welcomes the morning sun, the sound of peace is like a soothing music. The noise that every morning always sounds pleasant now adorns Nisa's new residence.

"Mother, later Iel there is a teaching competition. Pray Bun, Iel will be able to display the best and boast Mother," said Gabriel while vertical milk given by Nisa.

The boy placed the finished glass on the table, and thanked him when his stomach was full this morning. The touch on the head that the culprit was Nisa also made him feel calm.

"Definitely dong dear, Mother always pray Iel. I hope Iel wins."

"Aminnn," cried Gabriel proudly, after which he approached Nisa and unexpectedly immediately kissed the woman's cheek suddenly, until Nisa who was collecting used dishes was immediately stopped.

"Today we're off with Papa, aren't we Bun?"

"No Iel," said Nisa made the child's lips instantly cut.

Gabriel moved from his place and approached the boy's study table not far from the table. He took his pink bag and there was a picture of strawberries in the bag.

Ibel who was out of the room and saw the shape of Iel's bag spontaneously laughed at the color and picture of the boy's bag. He did not expect if the child really likes colors that are very disliked among men.

"Iel is seriously the color of Iel bags like that, not ridiculed what friends?"

Iel turned to Ibel and shook his head, "No Aunty, Iel's friend who wears a bag like Iel's."

Obviously Ibel was immediately shocked to hear the words of Gabriel who said that many of his friends were using such bags. After all, young children are very amused to wear bags that are pink and have strawberries.

"Who is Iel's friend who wears such a bag?"

"Many Aunty, like Lina, Risa, Tsya, Luna, Aninna."

Hearing the sentence made Ibel and Nisa take a deep breath. The child was indeed very fond of strawberries, out of whom the oddity was revealed. What is clear is that Nisa does not like pink too much, is it possible that Arsen? Ah the feeling is not, the man also does not like the color, and even really hate it.

Tong

Iel who heard the bell ringing immediately ran towards the door. His feet were so excited as they passed through the treads by the floor treads. Do not know who came, but for sure the arrival of the man was very much awaited by the boy.

"Hay Papa, so we will go together," said Gabriel as he immediately raised his hand asking to be carried by Arsen. And it was with great pleasure that the man obeyed the wishes of his son.

Nisa who heard Gabriel mention the name of papa immediately stiffened on the spot. He's not ready to meet Arsen, after what he did last night.

"Mother let's go!" Shouted Gabriel making Nisa's daydreams crumble.

"Iel, Mommy can't Iel."

"Why Bun," said Gabriel with blushing eyes.

Arsen finally spoke when he saw a wound in his son's eye, when Nisa refused the boy's request.

"Can't you just obey him. Didn't he just ask you to take him to school? Is it hard if you just obey him?"

Nisa can't say anything. Right now all he wanted was to briefly dodge the man.

"Aren't you also my private secretary?"

Nisa bit her lip, she was confused as to what to say. He closed his eyes, I hope this choice is not wrong.

"All right."

"Yey!!!" Shouted Gabriel in excitement.

Nisa looked at Ibel who looked relaxed enjoying the bread she was eating.

"Sister Ibel, Nisa go first."

"Hmm."

Nisa follows Arsen from behind, while Gabriel leads the way. The boy greeted everyone he passed by. But suddenly Arsen stopped, so Nisa who was focusing on her phone suddenly hit the man's back.

"Auu."

Arsen turned around, so that it shook Nisa. "I know you're avoiding me, I don't mind if you reject me Sa. Because I also know my position in your eyes, the reason you can accept. But never avoid me, because I can't if I don't see you. And remember well, I will fight for your whole heart, and assure you that I can be your companion." Then Arsen kissed the wisdom of Nisa's forehead, then he took the woman's hand and continued on his way, without caring about Nisa's current expression.
