Morning Star
Sweetest Farewell

The clock is 06:30 in the morning. I deliberately permission not to follow the first hour of the lesson because I want to deliver Sky to the airport. Yes, here I am now, with Dana, Aunt Marisa and also Bintang. The decision of Heaven to leave today was already unanimous. Even when Dana asked him to stay a few more days at home he continued to be rejected.

"Take care of yourself there. Don't forget the news after arriving," said Dana while hugging her first child affectionately.

"Sure, pa. Papa don't worry." Sky reassuring.

"This mother's son is an adult. Hope your dream is achieved there. Mama will surely miss you," lead aunt Marisa and embrace the Sky. Kissing both cheeks of his first son.

"You take good care of yourself. The sky will often phone mama there."

The sky took off aunt Marisa's embrace. Now he looked at the Star that was standing not far from my place.

"Lo don't want to hug your brother who wants to go this far, huh?" The Sky Syndicate who saw the Star was just as silent as ever.

Got the satire that the star chose to walk over. They then hugged each other. Pat each other on the back.

I smiled when I saw the two of them getting along. Although Sky knows I like Stars, but he doesn't prolong the problem. He did not hate the Star until it dragged on, let alone until it was a grudge. The sky seemed to have let go of his feelings. I don't know. I can guess that from her different eyes. Not as scary as it was then.

I also don't know since when they could suddenly get along like this. Is it the sky that initiates peace? Or even a star?

"My message, follow what your heart says. Don't be afraid to fight something. Men must dare to make a decision," said Sky while releasing the arms of the Stars.

The star only fell silent expressionlessly, yet the next second he gave his thumbs up with a smile. Maybe after Heaven's departure everything will return to normal. The sky has decided to stay in London, and the Star is starting a new life in its college environment. As for me, I will go about my activities like before. Without anyone in my life.

The sky stopped before me. Staring at me fixedly. What kind of look is this? Why can't I read something behind his gaze?

"Take care of yourself, Ra. Thank you for all of our wonderful memories so far. I just want to say, I hope you'll find someone who loves you more than me."

That parting sentence made the tears I was holding fall as well. I still remember the memory of how I first met Sky back then. A happy man full of surprises. Who never ran out of sense to make me laugh.

"Lo also has to take care of himself there. I'm sure you can get more girls than me. I can not hug you?"

The sky smiled, then he hugged me tightly. I don't know when the time will bring us back. I don't know. But clearly, I feel like I have lost a big brother in my life.

"Gue's definitely gonna get a bule chick in there."

My crying instantly turned into laughter. The sky also seemed to be laughing with his words just now.

"That little bule-girl isn't like you." my lips.

"Romantic hook like I no one wants to refuse, except you." he replied.

I cleared my throat for a moment to neutralize my heart again. What did that mean?

The sky smiled as it slowly ruffled my hair. "Have a joke."

That smile is contagious to me. Eventually the arch was re-engraved on his lips, though not as sincere as it once was. I'm sure it's all just a matter of time. The sky is a good man. He deserves better too. In a new place, of course.

Right at 07:00 the Sky plane is departing. I still don't think he's leaving. The sky has taught me many things. From him I can learn, we should follow what our hearts say. We must be brave to make decisions and accept all the risks that will happen. Dare to fight for what we want.

Sometimes, God deliberately presents someone in our lives just to know each other and share life experiences. Comfort cannot guarantee that someone can remain there to accompany us.

Destiny cannot be denied. Every meeting will have a farewell. Those words really exist. And I never thought my farewell to Heaven could be so fast. I will never forget the memory of being with him back then, where our bodies were together but my heart was never there for him. I never liked it, but I always appreciated how I tried to make me laugh.

Thank you for all your kindness so far. My mind as it looked at the plane that the Sky was ascending slowly drifted away.

"Tumben are you guys resting together?" my Serobots are sitting at their desks.

"Eh Ra! I was nyariin lo. I don't know if you let her sister Bintang to the airport" replied Natalie.

"What's up with me, Nat?"

"So gini, I want to ngajak lo ngerayain Adira birthday in one of the villas in Bandung. You coming, huh?" said Natalie while confirming her sitting position facing me.

"Adira ILtah? When?"

"Tomorrow we'll leave. We can have two days off because of the red date. So we can go for it." Natalie looks so enthusiastic.

"Third doang?" ask again.

"Yes, it's not. Beval, Abel, the stars follow."

My mind drifted back to the thought of Natalie's invitation. If you want to refuse, but it's Adira's birthday. Someone who has done a lot of good work when I need help. But on the other hand, the Stars also participated in the event. I don't think I'm ready to be involved with the Stars anymore.

"Udah come, Ra. I really want to be invited, just you know my own store is not a guard." said Keisha who saw me daydreaming.

"Yes go with me, Ra. Must be more exciting if the rame-rame." persuade Natalie again.

I let out a sigh of resignation. Hopefully tomorrow's show will not happen things that are beyond my expectations again. Like the promnight of the other day. It needs to be underlined again if the Star of the person who can not be guessed what he wants.

"I'm coming" I replied final.

"That's dong. Thanks, Ra." Natalie looks so sumringah.

I smile at the smile. A few minutes later the entrance bell rang out, the students who were in the cafeteria would inevitably have to leave the place. No exception with me. Before I got out of my seat, I pulled out my phone and sent Line to Adira without Natalie's knowledge. I wanted to ask her a few things related to the impromptu event tomorrow the day after which she should have invited me herself.

Kejora Gem

Why should I celebrate his birthday in Bandung? And you didn't mention me directly?

While waiting for a reply from Adira, Keisha and I walked towards the class after parting ways with Natalie in the corridor. Before long, my phone rang right before I entered the classroom. And that's a reply from Adira.

Adira Leonardo

Is it my birthday, how do you set the place? Anyway you have to come. I have contributed a lot to your life. Remember that!

Kejora Gem

I don't want to come. My feeling is not neutral yet if it is in the Star Deket.

Adira Leonardo

It's your business as heart. What I want you to come with. The point!

I was breathing rough. Adira is a bitch! More annoying than the stars. I don't want to be involved with them anymore. I want to focus on learning, living a white-gray time without love. Love is complicated. Falling in love alone is a waste of energy.

"Lo why, Ra?" asked Keisha looking at my upset face.

"Nothing's."
