The Part 13
All the way home, we didn't communicate much. I chose silence, while Gavin remained focused on driving.
“It has arrived at your home Ryn,” said brother Gavin after stopping his car.
“Oh yes. Thank you, Kak,” I said and got out of the car.
“Em, Sorry. Today I have been much trouble Brother. Thank you, Brother helped me a lot today.” I stared at Gavin's brother, and was greeted with a warm smile from Gavin.
“Log in first yuk,” take me. Brother Gavin did not answer me, he instead looked at me with an observing look.
“Sister, Brother Gavin,”, I said as I waved in front of the face of Brother Gavin.
“ Oh, yes. Wh why? What's up?” Brother Gavin is now like a confused person.
“Almost first Brother,” bargain me.
“No, I'll just go home.
I mean ... Other times it might be.” Gavin's brother now looks nervous, but he's trying as usual.
“Em, yes alright. Once again thank you,”, I said with a small smile.
“Iya. Come on in, it's getting night. I'll go home now, see you tomorrow,”.
“Yes, I'll be in. See you tomorrow.” I walked onto the porch, while Gavin turned his car back out of the yard. I paused for a moment at the door, my eyes staring at Gavin's car that was getting farther away, and long disappeared from view. I turned around and opened the door.
“Hahs. Brother Alby,” I said half-screaming when I found Brother Alby standing behind the door.
“Why? Shocked?” tanyanya polo's.
“Why is Brother here? Since when?” I asked back.
“Why indeed? Seeing me is like seeing a ghost,” he replied.
“The boy surprised me. Suddenly just appeared behind the door, naturally I was surprised.”
I looked at Brother Alby irritatedly.
“You alone are amazed,” taunted brother Alby.
“Already, I'm tired. This is the meatball,”, I said while thrusting a plastic bag containing a pack of meatballs.
“Said earlier did not want me to titipi?” ask Brother Alby in a mocking tone.
“Eum, but ... may be, already purchased also.” Alby's sister grabbed the plastic bag I was holding. I didn't answer, just smiled wryly and went upstairs.
“Cold?” protest brother Alby. I just kept quiet, lazy to answer.
Up above, I went straight into the room and threw my body into the bed. Huh, it's delicious, I can finally unwind. I hugged my puppet, then closed my eyes. I remember a lot of things today. From morning, until now.

Tonight the air felt so cold, I, who was wearing a long white dress with my hair unraveling shoulder to shoulder, still survived sitting on the swing. Every now and then, my feet swung softly. This place is so beautiful as a garden, but more precisely a mini garden. Yes, the shape is small, also unique, but so beautiful. Many candle decorations are arranged standing in a circle, while in them many red and white roses are arranged neatly around the candle. Not only that, other ornamental flower plants that are in vases are also many. Ornamental plants are neatly arranged lined up on the shelves of\-flower shelves.
I really enjoyed this atmosphere, very comfortable. The sky above was cloudy thin and decorated with stars flashing, as if it also felt what I felt. The goddess Malan was also present, with her bright light. He did not want to miss this beautiful atmosphere. Sayup-sayup, I heard the sound of people singing along to the piano melody. I got up from my seat, my ears looking for the direction from which the voice sounded.
I try to fight the heart
But it feels empty here without you
It all means so much to me again
I want you here to clear my bike
With you...
I felt like I knew that voice, somehow my heart grew stronger and stronger, prompting me to search. I walked not knowing the direction, which I knew, I followed the origin of my increasingly clear hearing. I kept following him, the clearer, the closer I got.
There'll never be another one here
A whole soul just for you
And there's no way there's another side
I want you here to clear my bike
With you...
I stopped my steps, I found a man who was no stranger to me sitting playing the piano in a white suit, combined with white trousers. Because he was behind me, so his face was invisible.
To me it all means so much
I want you here
It all means so much to me again
I want you here...
I walked up to him, I wonder, who is he? Why does it feel so familiar? And that voice ... That voice ... I felt like I was really concerned about it?
*There's never been another one on the side
A whole soul just for you
And there's no way there's another on the side
I want you here to be my bike
With you...
Until the end of time
Until the end of time*
I stopped my steps, and stood some distance behind the man. I wanted to say hello, but my heart forbade. The man ended his melody, it seemed like he realized there was me behind him. He looked at me, and how surprised I was when I saw the man's face.
“Kenzhi,” gumanku. I was feeling very nervous right now, my heartbeat was feeling irregular, and my blood was rippling fast. Now, Kenzhi got up from his seat and quickly approached me with a sweet smile on his lips. Now he stood facing me, then grabbed my hands and held them tightly.
“Promise me, you will never let go of this grip. You will continue to hold it tightly, as I hold it now.” Kenzhi looked at me deeply. I wanted to talk, but somehow my tongue was confused, I seemed to run out of voice. My hands also felt trembling as Kenzhi looked at her.
“Never love another man besides myself. You are mine, and forever will remain mine. Promise me, you only love me. Don't share your love for me with another man, it will hurt me. Look, I just love you, and my love for you is undivided. So take care of this love, I trust you so much.” Kenzhi looked at me very seriously. I nodded small, my tongue still felt faint to speak.
“I'll go now, take good care of yourself.” Kenzhi let go of his grip and turned around. Before Kenzhi stepped up, I quickly held his arm. Yeah, I asked him. No, rather I don't want to part with him anymore. I don't want him to leave me anymore.
“Kenzhi.” I clenched both my hands in my mouth when I saw Kenzhi's face. I was surprised why his face changed. I was so scared to see it, the face I saw was not Kenzhi's face anymore, but a face with serious burns, like the one I saw at the police station. I took a few steps back, my body was trembling. In an instant, that face turned again into Kenzhi's face.
‘Ah, I can't believe this.’ I put it in my heart. I ventured to try to move forward. When I started to step up, that face turned creepy again. That is, it happens over and over again. If I step back, the face I see is Kenzhi's. But if I go forward, that face always gets creepy.
“Cannot be!” shouting loudly.
######
I opened my closed eyes, and I saw the ceiling of my room. I still lie in my bed. Huh, my chest feels tight, also pain. I still can't believe what's going on.
“I dreamed of Kenzhi again,” I said when I realized it was just a dream. I rubbed the sweat on my forehead.
‘Why am I dreaming so bad tonight? What did that mean?’ my question is in my heart. I got out of my sleep. I sat down and leaned against the headboard while hugging my doll.
“Kenzhi, I miss you,” I murmured involuntarily.
“Kenzhi, return. I can't be far from you.” I can't hide the feeling that I miss him anymore.
*****
This morning, I prepared as usual. I who was now sitting facing the dressing table, took a deep breath. I looked at my face in the mirror, a little different than usual. There are still remains of the remains last night I felt. I let out a long sigh, then switched to taking my backpack. Not forgetting I glanced at my watch, and it turned out that I was almost too late. After glancing at my watch, I quickly descended towards the dining room.
Arriving at the dining room, I immediately sipped a glass of milk that my mother had prepared at the table, then plucked a piece of fresh bread and devoured it quickly.
“Sit down first, eat not while standing,” scolds the mother who saw me eating in a hurry while standing up.
“Sorry Mom, I have to leave quickly, almost late. I'm leaving first.” I kissed my mom's arm and ran out.
Arriving in the living room, I accidentally collided with Alby's sister.
“Kakak, if the road be careful dong,” scold me. I saw Alby's brother's performance still messed up.
‘He just woke up,’ I thought. I took a long breath.
“What? You hurry up, it gets bumped. This early you want to leave? No one is in school yet.” Alby looked at me with a half-conscious look.
“Lazy basis, afternoon like this is said to be morning,” umpatku annoyed, then leave. While Alby's brother didn't care about me, he walked towards the dining room leisurely while occasionally yawning.
*****
I walked faster than usual. Luckily, I got to school. I stopped my steps and took a long breath.
‘Finally I can breathe a sigh of relief,’ I thought. I walked more leisurely this time, passing through the schoolyard towards the corridor. Today, school is more crowded than yesterday. The students were also seen more than yesterday. Yeah, how not. Today is the final match of the football event. Naturally, if more crowded than yesterday.
“Ryn, beware.” I heard from behind someone yelling at me loudly. I don't understand why he's yelling at me so loudly. I looked back, and suddenly someone grabbed me quickly and pulled me a few steps away from my position. A few seconds later, I heard the sound of a flower vase breaking.
“Kak Gavin,” said I half muttered when I found the face of the person who grabbed me. For a moment, we were silent and looked at each other. Meanwhile, my position is now within his deck.
“Oh, sorry.” Brother Gavin took off his deck, while I lowered my head. Why does it feel like my heart is beating faster.
“You all right? Is anyone sick?” tanyakanya. I saw a hue of anxiety on his face. I didn't answer, just shook my head. I still don't understand why he grabbed me.
“Thank God you're okay. You almost got hit by a vase of flowers from the top floor,” he explained. I now understand why Gavin grabbed me. Today I owe him again, he helped me again.
“Thanks. Brother has helped me,” I say thank you.
“Iya, equally. Next time, be careful if the road.” Brother Gavin smiled at me and I replied.
“You want to class?” ask brother Gavin.
“Iya,” my answer is short.
“What if we walk together?” ask brother Gavin.
“Loh, isn't it class Brother different paths with me?” I'm back to asking.
“I don't want to go to class, but I'll go to the principal's office. I had interests there, and the office passed your class, right? So, we're in the same direction, right?” ask brother Gavin.
“Ooh. Yes alright, I understand now,” I replied. Finally, Gavin and I walked together through the school corridor.
“Ooh, that, my inner” when at a glance looking at a vase of flowers that splashed into pieces scattered on the ground.
Gavin and I walked as usual through the school corridor, barely even communicating. But there was something strange today, I felt that many students were watching us. There were some who stared in wonder, and there were also those who chuckled\-strangles looking at me. I tried, and rushed to class. I saw from a distance that Sasa was waiting for me first. He waved his hand at me.
“We parted here, I'm going to the principal's room. See you later,”, Gavin said after me and Gavin arrived in front of the class.
“Iya, see you,” reply. Gavin just smiled and left.
“For Sa, it turns out you've been waiting for me here. In fact, I intend to go to your class after putting the bag.” I started a conversation with Sasa.
“You, leave with him?” sasa asked as his index finger pointed backwards.
“No. We've only been together since the schoolyard. Coincidentally,” answered me and then entered the classroom and put down the bag. Sasa followed my steps, and now looked at me seriously.
“I noticed lately you are in close contact with brother Gavin. He cares a lot about you,” Sasa said.
“We're not close, just plain friends. I don't think so, he's only been helping me a lot lately,” I said.
“Same. Does he like you?” I was surprised to hear Sasa's question. Why is he asking like that now?
“What! Silly question. Where possible, not. Don't worry you Sa if you talk,” I replied.
“Then, why does he care so much about you? He's also considerate, isn't he? Are they just friends?” ask Sasa.
“Me and him are just friends, nothing more. Why are you asking like that?” I asked back.
“You are now very close, whereas before - just say hello almost never. Yeah, I know exactly what you look like. I've known you since Junior High, and I know you're not carelessly friends with men. He is also so, a figure who is too indifferent to women. And now suddenly with you being close like this? Naturally I suspect,” explained Sasa. It was true what Sasa said. I also don't understand why I became close to Gavin's brother. But everything just happens, without any engineering.
“The problem is, one school is talking about you. And as long as you know, this is becoming the number one trending topic now. In fact, this beats the news that yesterday exposed the closeness of Yelena and Steven's relationship. The captain of the soccer player from Pambudi High School whose face is like that Korean,” explained Sasa.
“What is right you Sa? I'm on news?” I just don't believe it.
“If not, I won't tell you. There's no way I'm gonna make up a story, Ryn. I have proof that you don't believe me,” Sasa said last time showing a video posted on Instagram. In the video, it contains the incident when I hit Gavin's brother in the canteen. Including there was a scene when I slipped and was captured by Brother Gavin.
“You believe it now?” ask Sasa.
‘Basic fad. Who the hell did this!’ my inner. For a moment, I took a deep breath.
“Why silence?” ask Sasa.
“Who the hell did this? Very cute.” I'm really pissed off.
“You're like you don't know. Our school is always excited, little news is made. You also need to know, the video in the post is not just one. If you do not believe just check your phone,” said Sasa. I was curious to finally check on my Instagram homepage.
“Ah, geez why is it like this?” I'm surprised I'm not playing. It turned out that not only one account posted the video. Even I see, there was a video of me coming home yesterday with Gavin's brother. Then there was a video of me being helped by Gavin's brother. I saw a lot of likes and comments from students. What makes me even more upset, there are not only positive comments. But, the sneering comment was also nyelah.
