The Pearl of Ternista
Rain and its Dark Memories

The rain that embraced the earth this morning, added to the cold that is usually characteristic of Malang City.

In long pajamas patterned with pandas, Tiara sat down while sipping a cup of coffee she had just made. His eyes can not be separated from the window glass that displays the outside atmosphere. How the leaves are wet, also the water that pools in the yard. Syahdu and leave his own grief for him.

Five years ago, in the middle of the rain that battered the city at midnight, he groaned in pain all by himself. No one accompanies him, even nature seems reluctant to give help for him.

In extreme pain, Tiara just curled up in the bathroom. Letting blood flow between the two thighs, drenched and pooled on the floor. How else, he was not strong enough to stand. Wanting to ask for help, his phone was also left in the room.

Starting from defecation, Tiara slipped when she was about to get out. Then he fell, his ass hit the floor quite hard. After which, pain assaulted him mercilessly. It was limp and painful, until the head hurt and the eyes twitched. Under such circumstances, Tiara was instead faced with blood flowing profusely.

The fear and shock made the pain worse. It was all dark and he remembered nothing.

"Your son got us out, but sorry, can't be saved anymore."

The doctor's statement made Tiara scream hysterically. The child he later attended, turned out to be home before he could see the world.

Yes, according to the doctor, his son died because help came too late. He was unconscious for two days.

But who would blame. He really lives alone. He fainted in the middle of the night, which neighbor would know. The rain was so heavy, his moans and cries sank into the rumble.

"Blessed in the arms of the Lord, son," Tiara's inner self with her eyes closed.

Back to that darkest day. Where he was faced with a tiny, pale body. The body that was finally buried in the ground.

"Aah!" A drop of Tiara's tears fell, piercing through the petals that were trying to close lamentably.

That cry, he always failed to bear every time he remembered his son. The little baby that should have grown up to be a pretty boy was called God before he saw his smile or just looked into his eyes.

Since then, Tiara has returned. If only he was not stupid, of course the child conceived belonged to Shaka, in the middle of a legitimate marriage. No such incident will happen, for he will live a family. Even if there is something, help will not come too late.

Tiara's tears fell more and more, soaking her cheeks and also the back of her hands where she wiped. On that night, she was like a despicable woman. The one who is alone is sprawled without anyone knowing.

"Ah, no. Not just that night. Ever since I gave up my chastity taken away by Karel, I've been despised, too" inner Tiara.

Outside, it still rained. Slowly Tiara opened her eyes, staring at the wall clock that was still pointing at the number six. An hour later he left for work, becoming an employee at a large boutique not far from his contract.

During the five years of living in Malang, there was not much change in terms of material. How else, after losing a child, mentally somewhat disturbed in a long time, about two months. So, the savings run out to eat at a time of trouble at that time. It is still profitable that hospital costs are free, given the condition of the material that is far below standard.

"This is definitely the best. Perhaps, he was too holy to bear the disgrace later on. Because no matter how much I hid the origin, it did not rule out the possibility of being exposed as well," said Tiara, trying to calm her heart that was messed up by the rain, which automatically reminded her of that dark day.

Not wanting to continue to dissolve in sadness, Tiara also moved and cleansed herself. Get ready for work because the rain does not make the boutique close.

After wrapping her body in neat clothes, Tiara left for work using an umbrella. He walked on foot, walking down the street where there were many puddles.

"Sorry, I didn't intentionally. I___"

The man who hit Tiara, lowered his head and was about to help. However, the speech and hand gestures came to a halt instantly upon seeing who he had hit. Tiara, the woman he once knew, whom he had thought about for some time. It is so easy for God to bring them back together.

Not much different from the man, Tiara was also surprised. Although five years had never met, Tiara still memorized the face.

"Tiara, is this really you?" The man smelled a smile. Then squat while reaching out to guide Tiara up.

He forgot the rain that had been avoided by running around. Meeting Tiara, he did not mind even having to get soaked.

However, Tiara did not just accept the helping hand. He chose to rise up on his own, then bowed when consciously viewed for too long. Tiara didn't like it, not even this meeting. If he could choose, he would no longer want to meet those who had seen his past.

"Tiara__"

"Why are you here?" tiara concluded quickly, regardless of the man who is now getting wet because of the rain.

"I'm .. I'm coming with a friend here. He offers a lucrative job. It was unexpected that you were here as well," she replied rather nervously. It took a lot of effort for him to endure the bliss that was stirring.

"Oh."

"Where are you?"

Tiara took a heavy breath, "Work."

"Where work? Continue ... Whose child is the same?"

Hearing the question, Tiara clutched tightly onto the handle of the umbrella she had been holding. The feeling that had not been calmed down, returned to a mess because of the question just now. Unfortunately, the man did not realize this.

"I'm in a hurry, excuse me!" tiara said a moment later.

Then, he stepped away leaving the man alone.

"Is there something wrong with my question?" he muttered while looking at Tiara's back that was getting further away.

The feeling of happiness just now gradually disappeared, changing anxiety and was was. Not knowing where it came from, suddenly there was a hunch that said that Tiara's life now was not as easy as he imagined.

"I don't know what happened to you, but with this meeting .. maybe we can share. As before, standing in the same boat to fight the storm, because now ... My life is not easy." The man looked down. Letting a drop of her tears fall and fall with the rain.

Losing ... in fact turned him into a whiny man.

Seriate...
