Kirana

Kirana
Chapter 45. Aurora Murka


The star came home almost before dawn, she had to go home empty-handed for not finding Kirana.


The star immediately went to the bathroom to clean himself and then prayed at dawn because the dawn adhan had reverberated.


After the prayer he spilled his body, his eyes closed because he could no longer resist sleepiness.


The morning sun has risen.


Meanwhile in the dining room, Galaxies and Auroras were having breakfast. "Well, Kirana's the same star hasn't come home yet." Aurora opened her voice.


"Maybe they're on the road now" replied the Galaxy.


"I'll call the Stars for a minute."


Aurora called the Star, heard a continuous tone but not lifted, Meanwhile in the Star room, she was fast asleep with a phone flashing without a sound beside her.


In the dining room, Aurora frowns as her phone is not picked up by the Stars.


"Not taken up, Pah" she lamented to the Galaxy, her husband.


"Maybe, he's driving." The galaxy is done eating. He kept the dirty dishes out of his presence.


"It can be." Aurora kept her phone and continued to eat breakfast.


***


Sunlight gushed into Kirana's hotel room.


Kirana's eyes that were exposed to the rays of sunlight moved slowly opening her eyes. He closed his eyes and opened them again.


Kirana then changed position and opened her net. He then looked at the clock on the phone lying next to his body. It's eight in the morning.


Kirana sat on the bed and stretched her body. He rushed to the bathroom.


When she wanted to wear clothes, Kirana was confused that she did not bring a copy shirt. Kirana had to wear the clothes she was wearing from yesterday.


At the knock of the door, Kirana came to the door and opened it.


"Good morning, sorry Miss we delivered breakfast to you." A man dressed in hotel uniform came. Kirana opened the door wide.


The officer then walked in pushing a trolley filled with food.


"Please enjoy Miss. Excuse me. I'll stay first."


"Thank you, Mum."


"Yes, Miss."


***


The star woke up, he looked at the window when it was already noon. The star looks at the wall clock that adorns his room. It's nine in the morning.


The star got out of bed and went to the bathroom. It didn't take long just ten minutes he had finished his bath and got dressed immediately.


Kirana's not home yet, she has to find her. But before that, he would have breakfast first.


The stars descend the stairs one by one. Aurora, who was watching TV, was confused to see the stars.


"Loh, Star! You're at home? When's home?"


"Evening." The stars answered briefly.


"Where to Kirana?" ask Aurora.


"I want to eat first." The star dodged him straight into the dining room. What do confused stars say?


"The star answered Mom! Where is Kirana? Is he coming home or not?" Aurora chased the Star into the dining room and kept asking the Star.


"Bi, please prepare a meal for the stars!" aurora shouted at ART. Then he sat down next to the stars.


"Where's the star Kirana? Is he upstairs why don't you take him out to eat?"


The barrage of questions from Aurora made the Stars dizzy.


"Well, I eat first yeah, I'll just answer all your questions" Mom."


"Why later? Now it's just."


"My stomach is hungry, I haven't eaten since last night."


"Oh, so. Yes, I'm eating fast."


"The food is not there yet."


"Wait for Auntie's set up again."


Aunty came to bring some dishes, helped by her friend.


Finished eating, just as she took a drink, Aurora had already asked back.


"Are you coming home with Kirana or alone?" aurura asked the Star that was drinking.


"Just like Kirana," replied the Star after she gulped down some water.


"Where is Kirana now?"


"I don't know."


"Can't you?"


"Overnight we arrived around magrib. I dropped him off in front of the compound. I'm leaving because there's an important need."


"You put him down in front of the compound and you leave? And look, Kirana hasn't been home yet! You crazy?" Aurora shouted furiously at the Star.


He did not think about his son. Maybe he dropped his wife off on the street.


The silent star did not answer.


"You don't think your wife's safety? Now where is Kirana? He hasn't come home from last night. Sleep where is he? Is he okay now? Are you thinking?"


"I'm gonna find him now." The star rose from its seat.


"Where were you going last night? What business is important until you leave Kirana on the road?" Aurora got up and immediately asked the Star.


"Business business."


"You think Mamah believes it? Be honest with Mamah what made you take her down on the street?" Aurora is really angry.


Just hearing him he was heartbroken, let alone Kirana who was put down on the road.


"I ... to the hospital."


"Make what? Who's sick?"


"Maya," replied the Star quietly but still heard by Aurora.


"May? You put him down on the street to meet another woman?"


The silent star did not answer. Aurora massages her temples


"Is Maya more important than Kirana? He has nothing to do with you. Kirana, she is your wife. The woman you asked from her parents, you promised before God to protect and take care of her, but, what you did made Mamah ashamed of the Star you let Mama down."


"The star forced Mah, Maya critically she wanted to meet me."


"Why don't you take Kirana?"


"I haven't introduced them yet, the time hasn't been right and it's never going to be."


"Maya, just use you."


"Don't tell my wife that."


Aurora's eyes widened, she couldn't believe what she just heard.


"You what? Your wife? Maya your wife? You married her when you married Kirana!"


"I was forced, he was critical and that was his last request."


Plaques


Aurora slaps the Star. "this represents how sick and disappointed Mamah is to you."


Aurora leaves the star.


The silent star saw the passing Aurora, and she turned around and went out to look for Kirana.


However, his body immediately stiffened to see a woman standing in front of the family room door.


"Kirana," muttered the Star quietly.


They looked at each other but no words were spoken. Kirana then ran to her room she ran up the stairs one by one.


The star came to a realization and immediately ran after Kirana, she arrived at the front door of the room. The star tries to open it but it locks.


"Kirana, open it first. I want to talk to you. I'll explain everything. Kirana hear me."


Kirana just stayed behind leaning on the door. His body then fell down. Kirana sat down hugging her knees.


"What explanation? All you say is your alibi to cover up your mistakes" Kirana said from behind the door.
