Happy at the End of the Dusk
A Statement

"Can you arrange flowers?" Vino walked over to the Geisha.

"Aahh not too uncle! I've only studied a few times!" The geisha looked over for a moment and refocused on arranging the flowers.

"I didn't know it turned out that in your camp there was a room like this!" Vino smiled looking around the room filled with plants and flowers.

"This is a room especially Zidan! among all of us only Zidan likes things like this!"

"Wakhh Zidan also has this side apparently!"

Geisha just a little smile.

Vino then looked at Geisha, the girl seemed to focus on a few flower stalks in her hand.

"Sha?"

"Yes?" The geisha turned her head towards Vino however, the man just stood still looking at her.

"What's the matter uncle? you need anything?" Ask the Geisha and then refocus on arranging the flowers.

Long ago, there was no word from Vino, he still stood silently looking towards the Geisha.

"You still love him?" The question spontaneously came out of Vino's mouth.

"Heeem?" Geisha.

"Mad Zidan! you still love her?" Vino repeating the question made the Geisha fall into a clumsy silence.

"Suddenly?" Ask Geisha astonished.

"No! this question I've been wanting to ask you for a long time!" Answer Vino.

"Why does uncle want to know?"

"I think you still love him!" Vino said and walked away.

"How could uncle say that right away when uncle knew nothing?" Geisha's words made Vino stop his steps. Vino then turned around and looked towards the Geisha.

"Everything is clearly visible in your eyes! even when I said her name, your eyes clearly exuded all those feelings! everything is mixed up! I can't even interpret your eyes!"

Geisha is silent.

"You still love him, don't you?"

"Why ask again? didn't uncle already know the answer?" The Geisha replied with a pitiful-looking little laugh.

"When? when did you manage to forget it? ah no but, when did you open your heart again?"

The geisha was silent, and he looked confused.

"How long does it take? a month? two months? a year? two years? akh or years?"

"What do you mean uncle?"

"You must understand what I mean by Sha!" Vino took a slow breath.

"I don't know if it's appropriate to say this but no matter how many years it is, please make me the first person you call when you've made it! as long as it is, when you call me believe me, I'm still waiting with the same statement!" Said Vino then stepped back to leave the Geisha who just stood in confusion.

"Syeza?" Rayhan stood still as he watched Sheza standing pensively in the basement.

Sheza looked up and just stood looking at him. A few minutes passed and the two men stood still and looked at each other.

"You came alone?" Rayhan asked as he walked slowly towards Sheza.

"I came with my mom and dad, with my uncle, and there's Al too"

"Aahhhh" Rayhan nodded.

"You okay?" Rayhan's voice sounded slow.

Sheza just gave a small nod and was about to walk away.

"I missed you!" Rayhan's words make Sheza stop his steps.

"Eemm yes!"

"Eemm yes? that only?" Ask Rayhan.

"Then what do you want me to answer?" Syeza.

"Don't you miss me?"

Sheza sounded breathless.

"Is it too hard to miss me?" Rayhan.

"I want us back to what we used to be, you want to give me a chance, right?"

"Mom and Dad are waiting for me!" Syeza.

"You're coming home now?"

Sheza just nodded then walked away but Rayhan held back his hand.

"Please answer my question, can we start all over again from the beginning?"

"I've decided to focus on my education and career, not thinking about anything else!" Sheza then let go of Rayhan's hand and walked away.

"Uncle?" Syeza approached Vino who was standing in front of the picture frame together they.

"Eem?" Vino.

"What's the matter uncle? is something troubling your mind?"

"There's nothing!"

"Uncle says that there is an affair in Indonesia that uncle wants to finish! hows it? finished it?"

"That's aahh....,"

"Not fully?" Cut Scheza.

"Eeemm yes!" Vino replied with a small smile.

"Aakh but I'm sure if uncle wants to be patient a little more uncle will definitely get it!" Syeza made Vino look at him.

"Yakhh why is uncle looking at me like that?"

"You don't know about something, do you?"

"No!"

"Then why are you so sure that uncle will get it?"

"Yeah, I just feel that uncle is fighting for something!"

"Wakhh what don't you know about me?!"

"Ehehe is right?"

"No!" Vino's reply spontaneously made Sheza laugh.

"Yaakh uncle! I've known you since I was a kid!"

"But you didn't recognize me before and after I got home from Amsterdam!"

"You still hurt about that?"

"of course! waakhh how could a nephew not recognize his uncle who had always defended him since childhood? isn't that outrageous? looks like I should just change my niece?" Canda Vino as she passed away.

"Yakhh uncle!! even if you want to replace it, you won't find a niece like me!" Said Syeza while pursuing Vino's steps.

"Akh you're right! that's one of his weaknesses!"

"Are you right?" Sheza laughed and then grabbed his uncle's arm.

"Aakh uncle must be in trouble, right?"

"What?"

"Fight it!"

"You're talking about that again?"

"Ehehe, uncle doesn't want to know what I mean? just maybe what I mean is different to what uncle is fighting for?!"

"really? then what do you mean?"

"Something uncle fights for!" Said Sheza with a small laugh.

"Yakhh you!!" Vino was about to snap at his nephew's forehead but, Sheza had already run away leaving him.

"Waakhh are you happy to play uncle?!" Vino said a little scream.

"Eeemm yes! I feel like I'm back in childhood! isn't this fun? go after me uncle! if you manage to get me, I'll tell you what I mean!" Answer Sheza.

"All right! you made the Scheza deal! so you'll have to tell everything later without even a little left!" Vino replied and then went after Syeza.

"Aaaahhh uncle!! Your footsteps are too fast!!" Sheza screamed and ran fast.
