UNIVERSES
48. Thereafter
Time after time passed. Nothing was okay after the sad news. There was no Desta, no Desta's parents, and only Keyra's parents felt lost. One school felt it. Even on the seven days of Keyra's death at school they held an event to commemorate Keyra. That beautiful girl really had a bad destiny.
Eleven o'clock in the night, but presumably Desta was still at home withstanding the piercing night wind. Leaning on the car with both hands in the pocket reduces the cold. Almost every day Desta came here, just to make sure the owner of the heart had turned off the lights of his room to prepare for rest.
Yeah, stupid. Desta admits what he's doing now is stupid. After hurting deeply what did he expect? Explain everything to Sema then the girl easily forgives?
He straightened his body as the silhouette of a girl was seen from the window. It was seen to pull the curtains until it was clearly visible the owner of the room that Desta always observed lately.
Their gazes met, implied many things. "Gue kangen." Lirih Desta was unconscious. His gaze wound and deep yearning on the figure of the girl who seized his heart in quick time. Sema who is able to move the center of the universe Desta only through her innocent gaze. In the end the one who is missed just stare without interest. Immediately Sema closed back the curtains of her room before turning off the lights made Desta sigh heavily.
If he had been given five minutes to talk, Desta might have just muttered an apology without any intention of explaining what happened. Because basically, Desta is guilty. Hurt his lover's heart intentionally. Is it still worth mentioning a lover?
Come to think of each other no one ever said to end their relationship. But isn't it outrageous that Desta still thinks their relationship is special? It was clearly all formed due to the ridiculous plan that Desta agreed to. Their relationship may be fake but not with Desta's feelings.
In the end, Desta could only go back to swallowing the facts. I don't want to see him or just see him. Again the young man had to go home disappointed.
Maybe he finally got what he deserved.
...—o0o—...
Meanwhile, in his bed, befriended the dim sleeping lights, Sema moved uneasily. Tears fell without expectation. Repeatedly he tried to wipe the water that fell from the eye peluhan but eventually he fell again and so on.
Same thing with Desta. His feelings are uncertain for whom. Between Haru and Desta. But the pain is now more dominant, more cramped than the time of seeing Haru with Keyra.
Not that Sema did not know a few days ago Desta always came, whether it rained or not. Just standing in front of his house without intending to enter. Repeatedly every night. Then leave right after Sema turns off the lights. It was as if the young man was deliberately waiting for Sema to sleep.
"Gue kangen." Her speech.
He and Desta were together for no more than a year. But every memory with Desta seemed attached to be the best film to make himself slumped.
Sema and Haru's friendship is back. But it's not like it was because they've been expressing feelings to each other. Sometimes Haru occasionally invites Sema to date. But always Sema responded jokingly. He wasn't ready for some reason.
Honestly dating reminded her of Desta. They had only been in a relationship for a day but the heartache was deep. Desta was always looking for an opportunity to just meet with Sema and the girl was usually dodging. Always make Haru as a shield because Sema knows Haru will not let himself meet with Desta.
In the end Sema will only cry until tired. Until he fell asleep and momentarily forgot all his problems. I have to cry again tomorrow night.
...—o0o—...
"Desta, you don't usually think of it. Any problem? Maybe you can help." Desta still silently did not answer making Bu Yuni sigh.
"Mom hope you solve your problem as soon as possible huh? Soon school exams and graduation exams. Don't let your grades drop, too. Understood?" Ask Bu Yuni. Desta nodded in the end he was left out of the teacher's room.
Desta stopped, leaning against the outer wall of the teacher room with a rough sigh. Lately everything's been messed up. Desta had no appetite, his face was pale. Plus the habit of waiting for Sema to sleep makes Desta late to rest. Clear printed eye bags. The young man clearly looked tired.
Even recently, Desta has been in the hospital twice. Tama started to worry about her son but she could do nothing. Desta's cold and never open attitude with anyone makes Tama and Arina confused. Repeatedly they got calls from teachers BK because Desta who sometimes found often sleep hours of lessons. Like a hundred and eighty degree change.
Desta walked over to return to class. But only a few steps he suddenly held his stomach. His hands leaned against the wall as a focus.
Damn, his ulcer relapsed.
Desta tried to walk even though it was a bit difficult.
He was surprised when suddenly someone held his body as if acting as a crutch.
"They?" Call Desta.
The girl did not answer, she was as strong as she could to bring Desta to the UKS. Trouble the girl walked by memapah Desta until they finally reached the UKS. Desta sat down on one of the UKS beds.
"Why?" Ask Sema. Very cold to sound.
"Maag." Answer Desta. The young man was still busy looking at the face he missed. Being able to stare at Sema this close somehow made Desta feel her heart racing faster.
The girl took something out of the plastic she was carrying. Put the sandwiches and mineral water on the nightstand. After that it turns around, find a cure for the ulcer and put it near the bread and mineral water.
This cannot be separated from the monitoring of Desta. How the girl behaved, even though her gaze seemed cold but Desta was happy that Sema actually cared about her. How the girl was breathing, how the girl was walking. All Desta misses.
"Where are you going?" Desta asked as Sema walked back. The girl glanced at me. "Lo can call a UKS officer if you need." After that the girl came out of the UKS. Left Desta alone. The young man sighed. He looked at the cheese sandwich on the nightstand.
That's Desta's favorite bread. The young man clearly knew that Sema was heavy with chocolate. It was as if Sema was buying it indeed for Desta. Huh, you better not be too confident.
But from here Desta felt he still had a little gap to get sorry from the girl. Yes, in the end Desta was back excited in his life.
