LEAFY LONGS FLOWERING SILENT
CHAPTER 71: THE UNIVERSE AND ITS CONTENTS

Rosa woke up in a not-so-well sleep and saw a wall clock stating that it was now 07:00 West Indonesia Time. Rosa seemed resigned not to go to school because my body felt weak, her eyes were straight up looking at the ceiling of the room where there were many star decorations and the moon was still burning.

Rosa begins to imagine with her journey of thought, passing the buana around the world imagining a face, a face belonging to Fakih Alfarizi.

"Gue didn't believe that we had broken up. Then, now my heart is really hurt. So like this is the end?" Inner Rosa.

Rosa turned her face towards the window and the sunlight was timid to enter the room. Rosa got out of bed and looked outside and saw the wet road with rain stubs falling. Making the window glass condense because of the heavy breath of the beautiful girl. Rosa looked around, somehow wishing that someone was standing below and hoping that it was Fakih Alfarizi.

"I think I'm still a darling. No...! I'll forget about it. Love is supposed to trust each other. If one of them breaks that trust, defending it is just a futility...!" Inner Rosa then.

"Body you hot Cha?" Mamah went into the room and held the girl's forehead and saw this mama Rosa also became worried.

"Gga mah, just a little dizzy" replied Rosa while letting out a smile to mamah. I hope you are not so worried about him anymore.

"Down yuk, mamah has made you your favorite chicken porridge!" mama said while embracing Rosa's arm.

"Yes" answered Rosa later.

When the way out of the room suddenly mamah entered again and said "Oh yes, Fakih telephone mamah...!" Obviously mother.

Rosa was silent. Mamah looked confused and finally Rosa came down to eat and take medicine.

When Rosa walks into the room, she gets a phone call from one of her best friends.

"Cha, why don't you go in here? Elo is sick? I was heard from the friends that Elo broke up with Fakih why can try elo story dong...?!" Said Intan a close friend of him and Fakih from across there.

"Gue's okay Tan, I'm just not feeling well, I'm breaking up with him. Tomorrow, if I go to school, I'll tell Elo...!" rosa replied, When Rosa received a phone call from Intan, Ijah's aunt said that someone was looking outside.

Rosa immediately went downstairs and saw who was outside. For a moment I opened the door Rosa was so surprised because that someone was Fakih Alfarizi.

"Why didn't you go to Cha's school?" Said Fakih with the look on his face that was so worried.

Rosa looked at Fakih's hair that was slightly wet due to the rain stub. And his school uniform was wet because he drove here on his bike.

Soon I let him in.

"Not school yet?" Ask Fakih.

"Yes I'm truant." Rosa's words are short.

"Gue thought elo, I'm afraid elo why-why” Fakih said.

"Yes but don't get rich gini too, later you can get sick!" said Rosa worried also with Fakih's condition now. "In the meantime, I'm going to go back and get a towel and make a drink for you!" Answer Rosa immediately.

"No need Cha, I just want to ask you something!" Fakih held Rosa by holding her hand.

Finally Rosa sat back on the living room sofa. "Elo can also get angry Mr. Sigit Suparaman, Kih!" Rosa Say.

"Biarin Cha, besides I've only been truant for the first time, right! answer Fakih while talking about Rosa.

Rosa accidentally smiles and somehow Rosa forgets her relationship that ended with Fakih. Silence then appeared and finally Fakih started the conversation.

" Cha, you don't papa?" Ask Fakih.

"I'm really fine" Rosa answered with a small smile.

"Gue knows all that …!" Fakih said stopped.

"Yes we broke up, not because of Elo. That's because of me" Rosa replied firmly.

Fakih just fell silent and then she looked at Rosa...!!!

Rosa was just silent and astonished, what did Fakih mean?. Then Fakih came home waving his hands from his motorcycle. Rosa looked at the smile from her sincere lips.

Rosa began to be lazy with what had happened and she closed her eyes and at least had enough of her thoughts.

***

Not felt the cloud that was orange has now turned into a dark blue color that is almost at zero black color. With the darkness of the sky above but not alone the sky was accompanied by something so radiant. Not just one but thousands and even billions.

Rosa kept looking up at the sky and noticed she was getting bored all day in this cage. Rosa was like being imprisoned for her own anger her own vexation. Finally, Rosa got up to walk outside the house looking for fresh air by walking to a supermarket around her house.

Rosa bought some fresh drinks and paid for them at the cashier.

"So a total of thirty-three thousand mba!" Mas Kasir.

"The money is...!" Said Rosa while giving the money mentioned by the cashier.

"Thank you mba!" Answer the cashier.

Rosa came out by taking the ice cream out of a crackle bag and sitting on a bench in front of the supermarket. Rosa saw the streets crowded with cars and motorcycles passing by. While eating ice cream that melts over time as well.

Rosa remembers Fakih again. "Why didn't he text or call me. Does he really have no heart?" Inner Rosa. Rosa grew increasingly upset and inwardly she said "If Fakih sends a message or calls, I won't respond to it." Continue inner Rosa.

While Rosa was finishing her ice cream, she saw a guy who she was very familiar with, walking from the corner of the net towards something. The cowo was walking so fast and without paying attention to what was in front of him. Rosa is shocked because she is Fakih Alfarizi.

"Where is he going?" Rosa lirih.

Rosa started chasing him and kneeling him from behind. Instantly he crossed and headed for HM Major General Hospital Ryacudu Kotabumi.

"Huh Hospital? Who's sick?" Rosa began to be curious and finally decided to continue to blind Fakih from a place far enough away.

With a fairly simple dress memorable as usual, Rosa only uses long shirts and trousers and continues to walk blind Fakih and not to lose Fakih. Rosa followed him into each of the dark alleys. Since many of Rosa's men almost lost track of her, it was fortunate that Rosa could still find her. Finally Fakih stopped in one of the rooms and he entered the room. Rosa looked from outside the room with a peek from the gap of the door that was not tightly closed.

When Rosa was seriously peeping, suddenly from behind someone touched Rosa's shoulder. Rosa was immediately startled and spontaneously her arm nudged against the door of the room and finally opened wide. All eyes in the room were on Rosa including Fakih. Fakih was astonished by the sudden appearance of Rosa. If only a sister's hand hadn't surprised Rosa, this wouldn't have happened.

Fakih's mother approached Rosa with red, teary eyes.

"Mom, is it okay?" Ask Rosa.

"Mother what is Nak Ocha, you are here with Fakih yah Nak?" Fakih continued with his question.

Rosa felt bad and began to be shocked to see that what lay was her father Fakih he was critical and now only prayer can save. Rosa felt sad and felt sorry for Fakih.

After a while in the room, Fakih invites Rosa to get out of the room. Rosa and Fakih sat on a park bench at HM Ryacudu Kotabumi General Hospital. Rosa saw her eyes glazed so clearly because of the spotlight of the pole light that stood firmly behind the bench. Rosa kept watching and held her hand.

"Fakih forgive me!" Rosa broke the silence.

"It's okay Cha, I'm fine" Fakih replied.

"Elo lied. I don't know what's going on in the Elo family, you should tell me and be frank with me!" Reply Rosa sadly.

Fakih then replaced Rosa's words, now Rosa's hand in her hand "Gue is fine, Cha, I know elo must be worried right me?" Fakih lirih.

"Yes, I'm obviously worried about you. I wish papah elo could be healed!. Do not be sad continue Kih, all we do now is pray, expect healing papah elo!" Rosa's words strengthen Fakih's spirit.

"Thank you Cha, I don't know if there's no elo!" Fakih smiled at Rosa.

Rosa returned her smile and felt guilty for thinking no-no because Fakih rarely even contacted her lately.

"So you don't go to school, because of me?" Ask Fakih.

"Emm maybe!" said Rosa, trying to answer it and then continue it again "No, Kih" continued Rosa.

And it made Fakih laugh and pinch Rosa's cheek. Because it was almost night at 21:00 West Indonesia Time Rosa rushed home and said goodbye to her fakih mother and Rosa began to walk quickly to her home, because incidentally Rosa's house is close to HM Ryacudu Kotabumi General Hospital.

Arriving at home, Mamah asked Rosa to go anywhere because she was just saying goodbye to the supermarket. Rosa explained at length to Mamah and finally Rosa went into the room. In this room Rosa imagines Fakih again.At once Rosa feels dating Fakih again and forgets the problem yesterday. Looks like Rosa has already decided something too soon.

In the school yard there are dried leaves falling and scattered too. It looks like the school's broomstick is working on cleaning up the garbage leaves of the rain last night. Rosa walked down the corridor and into classroom 2A. Rosa felt that she had not seen the atmosphere in this class for a long time, even though only one day did not go to school.

Rosa was sitting on the bench that she usually occupies, it seems that there are already some people in the class who read books and even do assignments. Rosa takes the novel out of the bag and then starts reading it until she realizes Nelly put her bag on the table.

"Cha, how's it going, you're healthy?" Ask Nelly.

"Yes to Nel!" Rosa answered by putting the novel she was reading back in her bag.

"Thank God, how do you keep Fakih?" ask Nelly who's so cool.

"Yes, I broke up, but......!" Rosa paused her speech because she felt confused about what to do with a situation like this.

***

Still I keep a neat, beautiful story in a note. I haven't opened every volume in a long time. The notes paint all the memories. Yeah though, I don't remember much of every incident. At least it's been arranged in a row of words. You know, I write all this to remember you at any time.

1994...!

At that time, it rained so slowly. I enjoyed every speck with a bitter cup of coffee. Drowns me in sadness. The year 1994 is full of stories, where Allah SWT brings us together among many choices, even if you choose to end it. But the rain still rained. Just like the longing I always put in every spark.

This Fakih Alfarizi about you, this morning is yours.

Rain continues to wash over the earth. Along with the rhythm of your favorite song. You slowly entered my memory. It's up to you. I want to end it immediately. It seems selfish. "Let this pass properly!" that's what you said. But it is not as easy as imagined. How can I forget the events that made me lose my way. Getting lost, missing, crying and always just like that, over and over again.

Don't you understand, just a little bit. The feeling I created was just for you, it was all about you. You understand a little, can you?

Am I wrong?

If I always ask you to come back, and sit opposite me, just play your favorite song, when the afternoon comes back. Make me a cup of coffee. How hard is the world, how can we survive and how can we fall in love? Yep.

That's funny, isn't it...!

That's all I want and why you're not talking a word right now. Or you've been so happy, until you completely forget, there I am always waiting for you to come back. Or you purposely made me cry. Let me know what a wound is, what a tear is. You're joking too much.

Is there no other way to make me cry?

Hey Rosa...! How are you today, I saw you smile. You tau? I'm so happy. I wrote my first note. Decorate the white paper with your name. Is this in love? And allow this taste to express. Even without a single word created.

Happiness is beyond the universe and its content...!

Let me say a few words that I have never spoken to anyone in the world. Just a little "I Love You, Always and Forever" said this I put on the wind that brings rain in every speck I put miss for you may you remember me.

Never mind...!

Maybe you forgot.

Thank you for the injury.

Thank you for that smile.

Thank you for everything.

I miss you so much.

This message I send to the gentle wind as gentle as your attitude, a message I had not yet delivered when you were still in the world. When you cry in my arms, when I can still see your smile, May you Be Happy there, I am the one who liked you a long time ago.

"TAMPERED"
