...Talk with the rain....
...I explore time in silence,...
...penetrating the limits of the unsung,...
...then stop at the endless corner,...
...seek among the lalang....
...The rain tells me about the rest,...
...lara love that has been burning,...
...like a sting of pain wrapped in grief....
...Story with the rain in silence,...
...heard the implied story of the heart,...
...bring fret away running....
...The rain wants to tell only sometimes the soul is reluctant to listen....
It's hard for me to express what I'm feeling right now. My mind was raging like a tangled thread that was hard to break down. The unexpected encounter with Jeremy in the twilight was an encounter I never imagined or expected at all.
Dusk tidied his stuff scattered in the hut. The rain that seemed to be tired fell no longer showed its hubbub. Dusk decides to return to his home. But just a few steps of his feet stepped from that place, his legs had to come to a sudden halt. When a familiar enough man in his memory appeared before him.
That face, a face that had long disappeared from his life, disappeared and vanished without a trace of words or farewells. Then I don't know where he came from standing straight in front of him right now. His figure appeared like a ghost that appeared suddenly. Twilight silent a thousand languages. He didn't know what to react to. Should he be happy or happy? Or does he just stay cool and not have to care?
" Hey, ! the man greeted first.
Because Dusk just silent to just stare.
" How are you doing? Ask the man back.
And Dusk did not answer him at all.
Looking at the silent twilight, the man approached and the distance between them was now only a few centimeters away.
Dusk could only stare at that face speechlessly. The face that once colored his days. The face that once perfected his life. The face that once resided in the depths of his heart.
Perhaps at this moment Dusk felt that he was dreaming. But Dusk was also unable to discern whether this was just a dream or reality.
The man smiled. With the same smile in the past. Nothing has changed. His gaze, his smile, his voice and his gestures were still the same as they were a few years ago. Making the memory of Dusk reminisce to the past. The time when her first love blossomed was beautiful. But it also reminded him of such a miserable time in his heart.
Dusk does not know where to start the word. Speechless. They sit next to each other. Not looking at each other. Because their gaze was only fixed straight far endless.
Jeremy tries to melt the ice between them at the moment by starting a conversation.
" How have you been doing for the past few years? I hope you're okay! But I'm sure that you're okay maybe even very good. I see you are getting more beautiful and sweet!
Hearing Jeremy's words, Dusk did not know what kind of expression to have. Because his heart seemed to not feel something that vibrates when it used to be when they still have a relationship.
But Dusk tried to appreciate it with a knotty smile. To show if he was there and listen to Jeremy. But nothing more than a smile.
" It may come as a surprise to you, because everything is so sudden. I suddenly disappeared and suddenly appeared. I hope you don't think too badly of me. Although I realize that my actions are not something that can be understood just like that.!
"Is he trying to explain the events of the past where he disappeared suddenly without a word?
" What and why now?
"After a long time my heart was filled with feelings of anxiety, fear and pain because of him!
Jeremy looked towards Dusk who just kept looking the other way.
" I understand what your silence means. And I can understand your feelings. Because I realized that my actions were not good.
I shouldn't have come suddenly like this as if nothing ever happened.! Said Jeremy in a regretful tone.
Implied deep sorrow in every word that came out of his lips at this moment.
But even so somehow the words are not at all able to vibrate the feeling of Dusk in the least.
Maybe just a moment ago Dusk was surprised to see the presence of Jeremy in that place. But it was just a feeling of ordinary surprise.
Not thrilling at all.
I don't know where the feeling that once lay in his heart. Or maybe because now there is someone else who has filled his heart. Someone who is able to give him comfort, heal the wounds of his heart that was injured due to the departure of Jeremy.
And that feeling is common. It is not a mistake to give a long-empty heart space to be inhabited by a man who truly loves him with all his heart.
Jeremy then said again,
" I came with an explanation for what I had done in the past. It might be pointless for me to give an explanation but at least I can feel relieved and accept my mistake sincerely.!
Dusk only replied with a nod, breathing a sigh of relief.
The awkwardness that appeared in Dusk made him like a person who could not think clearly. But as a normal woman, Dusk admits that Jeremy's face at first glance fascinates her a little.
It turns out that there is also something to be admired from a Jeremy for now.
" I want to take you to dinner, and I want to talk to you more! What can? jeremy tried to get approval.
Thought for a moment.
He could have fulfilled the request, or even rejected it. Because they are no longer lovers.
Or maybe he'll go fulfill: jeremy's request will be but not alone. Dusk wants to invite Zein of course.
However, Dusk has decided not to change his heart for others.
I don't know why Jeremy had to show up at the wrong time. After all the wounds have been healed. After all the wonderful memories had already been buried deep at the bottom of the endless world.
This sudden and surprising encounter may not bring about the beginning of a day that will change the current situation. Because Dusk had already decided in his heart that he would not waste his current time. When he made the best choice for her. He does not want to be haunted by doubt or worry.
Dusk sighed softly. Looking up at the afternoon sky. Orange and bright after rain.
The afternoon sky is always special. The height of maturity adds to the romantic atmosphere. Zein could not enjoy it.
Time to listen to him.
