The secret is like a lake, which people know looks clean, clear, but all they see is just the surface. You can only see the calm surface, only know what you see and interpret yourself.when the truth is deep inside so you have to dive and drown if you want to know. It could be that the truth is far from what you can think, mostly worse, very rarely better, more terrible. But who would have thought the secret hidden this time was actually able to heal the wound.
it's a secret you can't hide, love.
...****************...
Two children playing on the lake. The wood is neatly arranged to the edge of the deep water lake. Cold water. The green clumps and surrounding foliage create a distinctive smell. The smell is fresh, especially the cool breeze present makes the atmosphere calm.
Quiet...very calm, too quiet. The woman grew tired of just looking green in front of her. For some time he only played his feet which touched the water almost reaching the knees. He wiggled his legs until they caused ripples and small bubbles.
He looked at the boy who just kept reading books about nothing. The little man was too focused until the woman finally caught his guard.
"Ta, Ananta" the woman begins to annoy the boy, but he is ignored. He doesn't like to be ignored like this, especially by the man in front of him.
A mischievous idea popped up suddenly in his head. Although it was a little dangerous, he wanted to try it. Who knew he would get the attention of the stiff boy beside him. He stood up from his seat, very slowly until the little man did not notice it at all.
The woman drowned, only her hands were seen reaching the surface of the water. His face was drowned on the surface of the deep visible water.
She thought she was just playing, so she kept quiet and observed, until after a while her hand moved down in a panic. He immediately went into the water, but as he remembered he was not good at swimming.
He entered the lake and reached for the woman's hand. His hands twitched to great lengths to keep him on the surface while sliding towards the edge on the wooden bridge he was sitting on. Whether what kind of swimming style he uses, fortunately the movements managed to make him not drown with the woman he wanted to help.
His left hand gripped the woman's arm tightly, his right hand grabbed the edge of the bridge for a grip. But the woman's hand did not suddenly slip back from her grasp. The man panicked, then turned to look for the woman he had just brought to the side. The small body almost disappeared from his sight before reappearing on the side of the lake slightly to the middle.
the girl smiled happily. As if he had won something. He swam back to the middle and laughed.
The man was upset, he went up to the bridge looking at the woman who was still swimming cheerfully. He threw away his face before stepping away with his own luggage, he felt he no longer needed to help women who were even better at swimming than him. He chose to go home first leaving the woman who was still laughing. Without him knowing, in the slightly murky lake water Alana whispered a promise.
"anyone who helps me now, I will love her for the rest of my life." that phrase came to mind of a little girl who pretended to drown. Well, even though he knew, only one person he hoped would help him. Don't tell anyone. This is Alana's first secret.
