Gareta Ambriel is a beautiful girl who has a special ability, indigo. Gareta is still very young and he is able to help people around him who are in distress in mystical problems.


“Doni, where are you? Don't hide away, let's get out!” gareta said while looking around.


“Bwahh... You miss me?”


“Do I miss you?” gareta replied with a very sweet smile.


(Start again! Stop, don't show me that smile! Why should I like a human like you!) doni's inner cry while leaving Gareta.


“Where are you going, Doni? I'm not done talking!” shouted Gareta who was not ignored Doni who had disappeared from Gareta's eyes.


He could communicate with invisible beings without fear, as he is today. Ever since Gareta was little, he had been able to see strange things beyond reason. Only certain people can understand it.


Since childhood, Gareta has been ostracized by his friends. They find Gareta strange and reluctant to befriend him. And it was already familiar to Gareta, for him the most important thing was that he had a loyal friend accompany him every time.


And the friend Gareta meant was a pretty handsome male ghost. His name is Doni who died a long time ago. Doni came from the Dutch colonial era, he died because he was killed cruelly by the Dutch army.


Now Doni has been attached faithfully to Gareta, from childhood to adolescence. They feel like there is a strong bond between them and they are inseparable.


In every Gareta in trouble, Doni will quickly come to his aid. For example, when Gareta was being run over by a classmate in the toilet, the toilet lights went out and the wind blew very fast in the room.


(No, why Doni? Lately you have been missing a lot!) guman Gareta is upset by Doni's attitude.


***


With quite heavy footsteps, Gareta carrying a plastic bag after shopping at the shop mak Ipah.


Gareta is still reminded of the attitude of Doni who often disappeared secretly without Gareta's knowledge. And it makes Gareta feel sad, even he thought, maybe Doni was getting tired of playing with him and he will again feel lonely again.


Suddenly a group of teenage women block the path of Gareta who is still drifting in her daydream.


“Wah..wah... Look who this is?” said Putri while pushing Gareta's shoulder firmly until it fell to the ground and caused Gareta's groceries to fall scattered.


The princess and her two friends laughed as if satisfied after pushing down Gareta.


Gareta looked furiously at the Princess and her two friends. It had been a long time since the incident that was in the toilet they had never bothered him. But, today they have gathered what courage, so they still dare to act? Are they not afraid of the last incident?


Gareta got up and took back her groceries that were scattered on the ground due to the actions of the Princess and her friends.


“Indeed deserve that designation! You don't even look more like a monkey!” lili said while pulling Gareta's hair violently.


Gareta remained silent without replying to the actions of the Princess and her friends.


“Maybe he's mute! He didn't even say a single word!” mona's taunts that followed pulled Gareta's hair.


The princess stared in satisfaction after bulldozing Gareta. He and his two friends laughed.


“Happy?” gareta finally spoke.


Gareta got up and stood facing the three girls with an angry look. He would not have expected that the three girls would still dare to bother him.


“You are satisfied? You think I'll just be quiet treated like this?” gareta asked as she tightened her hands.


PLackk...


The princess slapped Gareta's cheek, and left a red mark.


“How dare you stare at me so! You're not even comparable to a dog on a despicable street!” the Princess' speech this time greatly provoked the emotions of Gareta who was already at the top.


As honestly as Gareta's body shook, he was already barely able to withstand this overflowing emotion. He looked at the princess closely, like a lion was eyeing his prey.


Suddenly the wind that had calmed down earlier, was now blown very fast. The leaves flew here and there following the direction the wind was blowing.


The three girls were quite frightened by this incident. They ran off in any direction leaving Gareta who was still standing there in a bursting emotion.


“Are you stupid? Why are you just silent without fighting back?” ask Doni who's been standing behind Gareta.


“...” Gareta did not answer Doni and he was busy putting his groceries on the ground due to the actions of the three girls.


“Already, talking to you is getting me mad!” doni said he was getting away from Gareta.


“Why?... Why do you come and go as you please?” gareta finally dared to ask.


Doni was silent right behind Gareta, he stared fixedly at the girl. Doni doesn't want to be like this either, but there's a reason that has led him lately to stay away from Gareta.


“I can't tell you!” doni's answer is not what Gareta expected, what he wants to hear is the reason why Doni is avoiding him.


Unknowingly the crystal clear granules flowed from the corner of Gareta's eye, without Doni noticing. Gareta was crying in silence. He buried his face behind his hands.


(I'm sorry. I should stay away from you, because we're different natures! I don't want to fall deeper with this feeling! Let me suffer, not you Gareta.) these are all expressions that Doni wants to convey, but can't and can only be said in his heart while staring at Gareta's back.


After he finished picking up the groceries, Gareta ran away and left Doni there, crying bitterly through the sudden rain.


Not even the sky is on my side! Thought Gareta was running.


Arriving in front of the house. Gareta stood in front of the door and just stared blankly at the door. Now all over Gareta's body is drenched by the rain that is quite heavy.


***


“Kok your sister has not come home well?” ask Gareta's mother to Gabriel who is busy playing online games on his mobile phone.


“Where do I know.” Gabriel replied without looking at his mother.


“This you, your brother has been gone since last afternoon and has not come home. It is raining down too! Aren't you worried about your brother?” ask her mother again.


“Bu, sister is already big. It can't be lost! Maybe now brother is in shelter!” gabriel replied quite upset at being distracted.


“Mother is worried about your sister. Try you out looking for your sister. I'm worried!” his mother said, peering out the window.


Gabriel, forced by his mother's orders, goes to find his brother.


But, when Gabriel opened the door, he was shocked by Gareta who was standing all wet while shivering with cold.


“Mother...” cried Gabriel calling their mother.


“What's up?” he ran out because he heard the screams of his son.


Sontak made Gareta's mother surprised to see her daughter standing up in this condition. Without asking, he pulls Gareta inside the house.


“What happened? Why are your cheeks red?” asked her mother while drying Gareta's hair with a towel.


“...” Gareta just kept quiet, she was still in a sad mood.


Krriiiieett....


Gareta's room door is open.


“Other times if out, don't forget to bring an umbrella!” said Gabriel who was right standing in front of Gareta and his mother.


Gareta raised her face looking blankly at her sister.


“Gabriel, your sister is not well. You just go out first. I want to talk to your sister together!” gareta's mother's tone turned serious.


“Ok, I'll be out. But, brother if out do not make people worry dong!” while closing the room door.


Gareta's mother was silent for a moment while breathing the oxygen in the room. There is a burden that is difficult to explain looks very clearly on the face that began to wrinkle it.


“Gareta, try same story mom.” Ask her mother gently while continuing to dry Gareta's hair with a towel.


Gareta began to turn her body around to face her mother. The two beautiful eyes were filled with tears that Gareta could not take anymore.


Yang Gareta wanted just a warm hug that was able to calm the weight of his current mind.


“i..ibuuu..” Gareta hugged her mother while crying in tears.


“Honey, I know all this time, you have suffered enough with this situation!” his mother said as she gently stroked Gareta's head.


“huhuhu..” Gareta's cries filled her room.


Without Gareta realizing it, Doni silently sees Gareta crying in her mother's arms. He wanted to hug the girl, but he couldn't. Because they come from a different world! And that has become an indisputable fact.


(My heart hurts if you cry. Why should we be separated from this situation? I beg you not to cry again.) cried out inwardly Doni while disappearing from behind the walls of Gareta's room.


Still in her mother's arms, Gareta is no longer crying. He let go of his embrace and looked into his mother's eyes as if to tell her there was a burden Gareta wanted to convey.


“It's relieved? Try mom's story, what's the problem?” while wiping the remains of Gareta's tears left behind.


“But, mom promise first. Don't tell anyone.” pinta Gareta while sticking out her little finger.


“haha... You are, yes mother promise!” while welcoming little Gareta with her pinky.


“Bu, lately Doni is avoiding me for no reason! I'm confused why he's so.” Gareta said slowly with eyes still moist after crying.


“Your invisible friend?” asked his mother while breathing heavily.


“i.iya mother, Doni. What I often tell my mom!” gareta replied while looking around like looking for something, but nothing. He was actually looking for Doni, but there was no sign of him.


“Gareta baby, maybe Doni has his own reasons why he stayed away from you.”


“Mother's right, maybe Doni has a reason and can't tell us why.” Gareta answered seriously.


****


With a heavy heart his mother came out of Gareta's room while continuing to think.


Dude, if only you were still here! Maybe the burden is not this heavy. You see, our son has grown up healthy. But, why did you pass that ability on to our daughter? I can't watch Gareta continue to suffer with that ability. It was all the inner screams of mother gareta who felt almost hopeless.


“Mother” call Gabriel from back.


Reversing the body while looking for the direction of the voice.


“What's up?” ask his mother with a smile.


“Nothing. Forget it!” gabriel said as he went into his room. I can smile, but I'm wrong. I clearly know you've been holding deep wounds since your father's death 10 years ago. How long will you continue to suffer like this? And sister can only make mom continue to feel sad! That's why I don't like my sister. Gabriel's mind was turbulent.


In Gareta's room. Room lights have been turned off and leave only a little light that penetrates from the window. Gareta was asleep in her sleep.


Instantly the wind blew playing the curtain of his window. And now Doni is standing right next to Gareta's bed. He looked at the girl meaningfully and at her door the hair of Gareta's head gently.


“I'm sorry.” Doni's words sounded very sad. “I have to leave without telling you! All this time I've liked you, but since our world is different, I can only keep quiet in this feeling! I was sad when I saw you cry!” said Doni who has shed tears.


Without Doni knowing, from now on Gareta had heard all the words of Doni in silence, he did not dare to open his eyes, he was afraid if he opened his eyes, then Doni would go again without finishing his speech.


“You know Gareta, why since I was a child I always followed you. Because when I'm with you my time can run. I've been in this world a long time with children, but since you I can grow up like this!” Doni kissed Gareta's forehead with his cold lips.


Gareta could feel the genuine warmth of the kiss, which though the touch given Doni was very cold.


“I remember when you were a kid! You were so funny back then, and I knew you could see me from so many people. And only you innocently came to me carrying a piece of bread to give me! Maybe at that time you still do not know I am not a human.”


“You remember, when I kept following you wherever you went? Haha, maybe that's the funniest part of my life that I'll never forget! You've driven me many times not to follow you, but I who was so stubborn keep following you until now!”


Gareta heard all the words that Doni said, all that Doni said was their memory as a child, when Gareta still did not know his ability. And it was Doni who always helped Gareta overcome all the mystical problems that often approached him.


“Did you also remember when you got lost in the woods while camping in Junior High? You forbade me to follow you. But, you kept calling my name. At that time, I felt like you were in danger! I kept looking for you in all directions until I found you behind that big tree while continuing to cry in fear.” Doni's speech came to a halt as Gareta turned her body towards the wall.


Gareta shed tears, she knew the meaning of all Doni's words. He knows very clearly. Gareta felt he would lose Doni this time.


In silence Gareta cried without noticing Doni who was stroking his head. He could feel a cold touch on his scalp.


“I like you so much, Gareta. But, we are not destined to be together in this life! And my time is not much anymore, even soon they will come to pick me up, take me away to a very far place!” Doni threw his gaze in a careless direction. “Sorry, I'm sorry that I've been staying away from you lately. Because I can't stand to see you sad when you know the truth! Let me alone feel this sadness all!” Now Doni is standing a little away from Gareta. “I must go, I beg you to live happily. Don't cry about my departure again. Because I love you so much! Goodbye Gareta.” It was the last words from Doni before he disappeared for good.


After hearing that all Gareta cried sobbing that night. His heart was crushed, like it was on a thousand needles. Immerse her face in the palm of her hand withstanding her cries. He'll be alone again, without a friend.


During this time Gareta also keeps a liking to Doni, without being revealed. Now regret covers his entire body and his feelings.


Throughout the night Gareta wept over the passing of Doni who left her forever and never came back. His eyes are still swollen and swollen.


Gareta seemed reluctant to get out of bed, he was lazy to do anything, he felt his heart was very empty, and he was very desperate with his feelings.


***


This is the last year for Gareta to sit in High School. They'll be passing exams soon.


Gareta slowly began to live her life again, although her heart was still not fully healed from Doni's departure.


But Gareta still clearly remembered what Doni asked for, before he left. He wants Gareta to live happily without her anymore. He wants Gareta to live his life normally.


And sure enough, since Doni's departure. Gareta could no longer see invisible creatures or communicate. He has been living a normal life and now has some friends.


But, it still could not shake the emptiness in his heart. Until now Gareta still misses the figure of Doni, his laughter, his face, which still continues to be imagined in Gareta's mind.


“Gar, how do you daydream? Later lho.” Nina's voice resuscitated Gareta.


Gareta laughed a little at the expression of her friend. “Tadi to where? Sorry I was a little out of focus!” answer gareta while continuing working on ‘PR’.


“Tata, can you not?” asked Nina who turned her eyes to Tata who looked very serious about doing the task.


Gareta is not as smart as Nina who always won the 1st title every year. For Gareta, he was very grateful that now there was Nina and Tata who wanted to be his friend.


Back then, when they were new students, Tata and Nina once greeted Gareta. But, instead of greeting them back, Gareta just gave a flat face and just went through them.


But, without giving up Tata and Nina tried to get close to Gareta, even though Gareta had often refused. Until one day, when Putri and his friends try to bully Gareta, Tata and Nina without fear against the Princess and her friends. Since then Gareta's heart has been a little open to accept the two of them to be her friends, until now!


“Aahhh, I'm so dizzy! It feels like my brain is frozen all, all the lessons explained by Ningsih's mother nothing goes into my brain!” Tata finally gave up staring at the problem on paper that was considered difficult.


Nina and Gareta could only laugh amusedly seeing Tata complain of resignation after a while grappling with the task ‘pr’.


***


Finally the day that awaited has arrived, Gareta, Nina, and Tata are already impatiently waiting for their graduation. They had been sitting neatly on the student bench and accompanied by their parents, as well as Gareta who had been accompanied by her mother.


His mother held Gareta's hand tightly with a sweet smile, knowing that her daughter was agitated while waiting for her turn to be called by the headmaster.


“Just relax, mom is here.” His mother's words suddenly made Gareta's feelings immediately feel calm.


“Mother, sorry all this time Gareta always made mom worry!” gareta said as she stared softly at her mother.


Gareta and her mother smiled back at each other, they looked at each other meaningfully. And now, Gareta and Gabriel are getting along. They didn't fight anymore, even Gabriel took care of his brother very much.


5 Years later....


After graduating from college, Gareta worked at a very well-known S company. Now that he busies himself with work, he wants to forget the shadow of Doni.


And sure enough, now slowly and somehow since when, Gareta completely forgot her feelings for Doni, she had buried deep in those feelings.


That morning, as usual before Gareta started his activities, he always bought a cup of coffee in his office cafeteria.


“Thank you, happy activities.” Said the canteen keeper with a smile while giving Gareta's order coffee.


“Thank you.” Gareta replied while receiving the coffee, she smiled slightly and passed away.


Doni, I've lived as happily as you wish! I really forgot about you. Gareta said inwardly while smiling as she recalled her past with Doni, the handsome ghost who once filled her heart.


“Again, is the coffee good?” ask a woman Gareta's coworker.


“As usual! I still can't distinguish the taste of coffee.” Gareta replied with a laugh.


“Basic, so why do you always drink it, if you yourself can not enjoy the taste?” asked Rosa while crossing her hands on her chest.


“I also don't know, why I drank it!” gareta's face looked slightly moody while continuing to look at the coffee glass he was holding.


“Have it, forget it. You have an event this weekend?” ask Rosa again.


“No.” Answer Gareta briefly.


“How about we go on a blind date?” rosa said a little excited.


Suddenly they were shocked by a man who approached them. As soon as Gareta's heart beat strongly upon seeing the foreign man, he was agitated by the man's presence.


(I've been waiting for you for a long time, Gareta. I finally found you!) speak the man's mind.


The man was already standing right in front of Gareta and Rosa. He looked at Gareta with a smile.


“Old no see, Gareta!” said the man greatly surprised Gareta and Rosa.


“You know me?” gareta asked confusedly while pointing at herself with her finger.


Rosa, who understood the man's gaze, chose to leave quietly leaving Gareta with the stranger.


“Sure I know you very well, I miss you very much!” reveal the man.


Gareta was still on the verge of questioning in her heart, she was confused by the presence of a foreign man who claimed to know her well.


“Ok, so what's your name?” ask Gareta who is quite curious.


“You will definitely be very surprised after hearing my name!” replied the man with a smile.


Gareta was made quite upset by the man.


“Meet me Doni Wiranto, CEO of this company!” doni's words surprised Gareta.


The glass of coffee he was holding fell onto and spilled its contents onto that white floor.


Gareta did not expect, will meet again with human-shaped Doni. The feeling he buried deep now churned back.


They were found again after a long time separated by time and different nature.


Gareta stared fixedly at the man named Doni, as soon as her tears flowed from the corner of her eyes, her body trembled slightly.


Doni who realized Gareta was still shocked by her presence, immediately hugged Gareta's body tightly. He calmed the girl in his warm embrace.


It was a very beautiful sight, many employees who witnessed the incident, some felt jealous of Gareta because they were embraced by their CEO and some were also moved by the moment.


A few minutes Gareta was crying in Doni's arms, now a cold body, now feeling very warm and comfortable with his masculine fragrance. Now the two men have been reunited, hopefully after this they have a happy ending.


Done it.
