Luccane
Chapter 14: The Beautiful Stars in the Multiverse

"Yes, but you cannot match your beauty Vishabea adore my heart."

Luccane's words I could only respond with a smile, I was too misbehaved just to reply with a few words.

"Because it's dusk, do you want to see the night sky here?" bargain Luccane while pointing westward, where the sun will set soon.

"A very interesting offer" I said enthusiastically, looking in the direction Luccane was pointing.

Slowly but surely, the golden orange color that adorns the sky began to fade changed into a dark sky that now shaded us both.

In silence I marveled at the beauty of the sunset that I had first seen from a different age than where I had come from.

Luccane seemed to enjoy the sight, making me faintly sigh.

"Are you thinking of something?" I ventured to ask after a long silence enveloped the two of us.

The sound of crickets is faintly heard which indicates that the flower garden belongs to Luccane is still so natural.

The handsome ghost smiled wistfully.

"i just miss Mama and Papa a little bit after not coming here for a long time to treat my longing."

"What do you do when you go back in time like this?"

"I will sit still, watching the movements of everyone from the place I like the most like in this flower garden or certain corners in my house. If I'm lucky I can see myself coming home from school with a sour face, or Mama who's busy cooking in the kitchen sometimes I see Papa busy working in her study."

I'm sure Luccane's feelings weren't okay after telling all that but the handsome young man's smile didn't fade.

"If I had known that I would die at such a young age in such a horrible way, I would not have come home from school grumbling," luccane said, pointing to himself while still alive who was walking into the house.

Luccane's face there did look sour when he was about to enter the house but in the doorway there was already the mother who welcomed her son with a warm smile typical of a mother.

"Why did you come home that late, Luccane?"

Luccane's pair of blue obsidians still reluctantly turned away from him at the gate of the house that was chatting with his mother.

"By meeting Papa's very high expectations I studied so hard even after the school hours were over. Because at that time there was no tutoring then I studied after school in the library," Luccane explained after he and his mother actually entered the house.

"Usually if it's waiting for me to come home at the gate like that, we'll have dinner together. Yes, even though Papa kept asking me about my school business no matter how I felt but I still enjoyed it and considered it all to be a family interaction."

I grabbed Luccane's big hand, gently rubbing the cold hand trying to channel positive energy to him.

Luccane sighed, looking at the sky with a glaring gaze.

"His father was very cold and firm. I wonder why Mama wants to marry a man who is too stiff like Papa."

I snorted amusedly. "no one can control his feelings, Luccane."

Luccane smiles. "yes even so I am still proud to be their child even though I have to be treated less fun because I am a 'Sinyo'. Be thankful that you were born in an age where everything has gotten better."

"If we could meet earlier." - my great-granddaughter while also looking at the vast horizon.

"It's sad because we have to have a relationship like this. My bones are even still on the ocean floor without anyone knowing whether they're intact or not."

I bowed listlessly. "sorry I can't do anything for you."

"You don't have to apologize for something that's definitely not your fault. Quickly close your eyes, we must return immediately."

...****************...

Without feeling like the day has changed into a Sunday and I am proud to say that all the paper assignments that I have to collect have been completed I did without a single difficulty.

Thanks to the help of concrete historical sources as well as the visual evidence I could see and listen to with my own eyes I was sure the value of my duty would be very satisfactory.

Luccane is awesome!

"It's Sunday, what do you want to cook?" asked Luccane who was busy opening an old book.

"I cooked the side dish and rice this morning. Then can you give me a snack idea today?"

Luccane turned his attention to me, rubbing his chin with his thumb and index finger seemingly thinking hard.

"I don't know much about snacks nowadays. Doesn't it matter if I give you an idea with a typical snack of the past?"

I chuckled, but had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Of course, Luccane.Give me the idea of a delicious snack in the days you lived."

"If you often eat nastar, are you also familiar with Kastengel?" luccane said with sparkling eyes.

"Castengels? Yeah, I eat it a lot do you know the recipe?"

Luccane cengengesan. "it's a simple matter. I'll read the ingredients then you take notes and please buy."

Eagerly, I took out a piece of paper and a pen and carefully recorded all the materials mentioned by Luccane.

"This is an original recipe from the Netherlands brought by his sister Aunt Papa who used to live in Batavia, I guarantee this recipe will taste very good and with a slightly different taste from the local recipe," luccane said with a confident smile.

"Alright, now tell me how to cook it properly and correctly in order to be as wise as you say."

Luccane nodded. "get ready, get it done! We'll just start right away, then."

"By the way that the aunt is of Dutch origin, is Oom also of Dutch origin?"

"Yes, it means Aunt and Uncle. If Oma and Opa mean Grandma and Grandpa."

"Well, the new science is very useful haha thank you, my dear Luccane!"

I'm lucky to have Luccane by my side. He is not a human being who can promise me a serious relationship with a bright future at least now he can be a person who makes me feel happy.

Establishing a relationship with a creature other than humans is not a good step and I do not recommend it to you but really, really, only Luccane can make you feel what is serene in the middle of the great and deep abyss of difference that stretches between us
