The Story of the Sky
You're Selfish


Five minutes later. After chanting adhan and praises also sholawatan, and after seeing the pilgrims, who are usually present to participate in congregational prayers have come. Fadil immediately declared iqomah.


Although the number of people is not small, but in the implementation of congregational prayers at every time, there are only a few people who come. Very different from when performing Friday prayers, or prayers on Eid.


When he heard that Fadil wanted to approach another girl, Tiara's heart seemed to be burning with jealousy. Moreover, in the days that followed, Fadil was completely indifferent towards Tiara. Let alone to talk or just a seductive fad. To cross paths and stare at Tiara's face alone, Fadil always dodged. This made Tiara feel pain, loss, and also a jealous flame in Tiara's heart.


There is a longing in Tiara's heart, in Fadil's often nosy attitude teasing her. And also the sense of attention given by Fadil to Tiara. Really Tiara really missed Fadil's usual attitude like that.


In fact, in the hearts of these two men, both have sprouted seeds of love in their hearts. Both Fadil and Tiara felt lost and tormented over their own behavior. They are tormented by their own selfishness.


Until one afternoon. Fadil who was sitting in front of the gate of the Mosque with his friend Ulil, joking as usual, Ulil beckoned to Fadil. If not far behind, the village flower and its friends have come to the mosque. And of course, they will pass through Fadil and Ulil. At once Fadil instantly fell silent and threw away his eyes, pretending as if there was no Tiara behind him.


The atmosphere of silence was instant when Tiara, Yunita's older sister Tiara, and also her theme Rina, would pass through Fadil and Ulil. It was only after they passed that Ulil and Fadil resumed their chatter.


Of course, Tiara, who at that time felt bitter by Fadil, felt a bitter and bitter taste in her heart. Until unexpectedly, Tiara and Rina after putting their prayer equipment and salary in the Mosque, they again passed before Fadil and Ulil.


Fadil, unaware of Tiara's presence, was immediately startled and reflexively looked at Tiara's face. The gazes of the two met, their mouths mute. But still looking at each other, and there was no sign of the two to turn their gazes away.


The atmosphere became ambiguous, it made Ulil and Rina also fixated on seeing the behavior of the two of them. Two seconds, five seconds, even nearly fifteen seconds of that stiff atmosphere happened. Then both of them were the same as turning their gazes away.


Tiara then took Rina's hand to go and pass through Fadil and Ulil. While passing through Fadil, Tiara unconsciously said:


'' Huh, now so arrogant huh!'' Tiara while rolling her eyes towards Fadil.


Fadil who felt himself being insinuated replied.


'' Who is arrogant?'' Fadil who was sitting, raised his face looking at Tiara.


''you !'' tatus Tiara answered.


'' How arrogant? what the hell do you mean?'' Fadil with a confused face.


''On top of that, Deketin Vega!''


'' Hey. mak. sud..''


'' Alaah, that's it. I know you are like that!'' Cerocos Tiara, without giving Fadil a chance to finish his words.


Being treated like that, Fadil's heart burned with emotion, so without thinking he immediately said:


'' Okay!, whatever you say, I don't care. Anyway, what if I deketin Vega? are you ready for me? so what if I like Vega? you jealous? hhh Egoist basis!''


Tiara who had not stopped chirping, suddenly fell silent at the words coming out of Fadil's mouth. His tongue could no longer say, his heart as if it were pierced with a dagger. Unknowingly, her tears came out from both corners of her beautiful eyes. Sick, it really hurts. That was how Tiara felt.


Fadil who was already emotional, after saying those words, he immediately left Tiara, Ulil, and Rina, who were still dumbstruck by what was happening in front of him. These two people, they were looking at each other, then had a fight for no reason, and suddenly left.


The next day, both Fadil and Tiara, they did not come to the mosque. Fadil was still angry at Tiara, while Tiara, thinking too much about yesterday's events, was sick and had a fever.


The next afternoon Fadil came to the mosque. He was as usual, waiting for Maghrib to sit on the terrace of the mosque. A little while later, Yunita and Rina came to the courtyard of the Mosque. Seeing that Tiara was not with them, Fadil asked Yunita:


'' Yun, where is Tiara? not leaving?'' fadil asked when Yunita was near.


''I am sick, he has had a fever for two days now Yunita replied.


'' Yun, please apologize to Tiara. Please also say my regards to him, hopefully soon to recover!'' fadil said with concern.


After that Fadil went for ablution, then entered the mosque to proclaim the Adhan, the sign of the time Maghrib had arrived.


Time keeps passing. After the maghrib prayer, then teach until the arrival of the Islamic prayer time, they also perform congregational prayers. Fadil who usually did not go home immediately after the Islamic prayer, that night he went straight home. His heart felt uneasy upon hearing the news that Tiara was sick. He wanted to come to Tiara's house, but there was no courage to visit there.


After returning from the mosque, he immediately lay down on his bed. His eyes looked at the ceiling of the room, while his mind went nowhere.


Yunita when she got home directly entered her room. After changing his clothes into sleeping clothes, he then fell down on the side of Tiara. They both sleep in one room.


Tiara is weak. Although his fever had dropped, but his face still looked pale. For these few days, Tiara had done nothing. He only sleeps, eats, and occasionally sits in the family room to watch TV shows, to get rid of his satiety.


Usually, Tiara is very active doing homework to help her mother. Be it cooking, washing dishes, clothes, or sweeping. These few days, Tiara felt extremely bored.


Realizing Yunita was lying next to him, Tiara shifted her body, and gave Yunita some space. Tiara had almost fallen asleep before, but when Yunita came knocking on the door, she was awake.


" You still have a fever?'' yunita said as she checked the temperature of Tiara's forehead with her hands.


Tiara shakes.


'' I met Fadil, ''' whispered Yunita deliberately shrunk her voice, afraid to be heard by her parents.


There was no response from Tiara, only her beautiful eyes with pliable eyelashes, which flickered staring at the ceiling of her room.


'' He said, apologise about yesterday, and he sent greetings to you, he said to get well soon.''


Hearing what Yunita said about Fadil, Tiara's face remained flat expressionless. But in the corner of her beautiful eyes, there was a slight change, indicating that her heart was pleased with what Fadil said through Yunita.


'' Finally he wanted to talk to me.'' Tiara murmured inwardly.


When Yunita saw Tiara not giving any response, or a word coming out of Tiara's lips, Yunita only let out a long sigh while fixing her position and preparing to sleep. After a while, Tiara turned to Yunita.


'' Does he know that I am sick?'' tiara lirih.


''I told her, Yunita replied after turning her head and looking at Tiara's face.


'' Sorry, '' he continued.


'' Brother Tiara turned to look at Yunita.


'' Hemm, Yunita muttered.


'' Thank you'' The two are still staring.


'' Yes, now we sleep, it is night, you must rest so that it heals quickly, continued Yunita while fixing her sleeping position again.


The sky was so bright, even though there was no moon, yet millions of stars were hanging in the sky, adding to the beauty of the night. Some people have fallen asleep and entered into their dreams, including Fadil, Tiara, and Yunita. Although some others are still awake and fun to hang out hanging out enjoying the atmosphere until late at night.
