Sky couldn't do anything; even if he spoke, Casya knew he was lying. I don't know. Sky was happy when Casya found out that Tirta had children. It's just that, when he heard it directly from Casya's mouth, for some reason Sky felt that Casya hated him for a reason, namely that he was a liar and a coward. That's who he is.
"Sya," Sky called with a tight throat, as if there was a stone stuck in his throat.
Silence, Sky, I don't want to talk anymore." This time, Sky was really silent. She didn't even say anything; she just kept quiet. Yes, that's what Casya wants. Sky sighed before finally driving slowly back to the car. He no longer carried it as fast as before, but just enough to hear each other's heartbeats. Casya also didn't care where Sky would take her. What he cared about was, for a moment, clearing his mind so as not to think too much about Tirta.
They arrived at their destination, an angkringan, which is the usual place for young people, teenagers, and even the elderly to hang out. The place is comfortable and outdoor, in an open space. Casya just got down and walked first without bothering to pay attention to Sky, who was behind her. Then they sat on a chair that was quite far from the corner, not too bright but enough from the Tumblr lights above them.
"What do you want to order? Sky asked, Casya shook her head, and a waiter came with a menu. Casya said her and Sky's orders were the same. After that, the waiter left, and Casya and Sky returned to each other in silence.
"I"
"I don't want to discuss anything, Sky; after eating, we'll go home. Casya said it firmly.
Sky, who heard that, gritted her teeth softly and clenched her fists tightly. He had already warned Tirta not to make Casya cry. But what did the man do?
"Are you really in love with Tirta? Isn't your relationship just an act? Sky always reminds her of this because Casya looks normal when she walks with Tirta. But what other people don't know is that Casya has been touched by that man, Tirta. He deliberately didn't show his affection because he was afraid he would end up like him and Sky.
"Sky, can we not talk about Tirta and our relationship? Whatever happens, it has nothing to do with you. You and I are just friends, nothing more. And don't make me misunderstand your attitude of always being there for me—acting like a hero." Casya looked at Sky calmly. But Sky knew that it was also a warning full of firmness. Sky looked at Casya with a hurt look. He never felt that he was a coward or a loser. But in this case, he admits it.
"Yes, I know that Tirta already has children. But I never knew that he lied to you. All this time I wanted to tell him, but I held back because I knew that Tirta himself would tell you. But maybe he hasn't had the chance to tell you about it; you already know. Sky finally confessed.
"Sky, do you realise that all your words are just an excuse? And for me, you are putting on a mask and a fake face now. For me, you are nothing more than a loser and a coward indeed, hiding under the word friendship, and you are looking for the shadow of Maudy in me, which you haven't found in Maudy; you want to look for it in me, and so do you when you feel that I'm not an option and have always said that you love Maudy. Sooner or later, Maudy will only belong to Arga. Although, yes, even if not Arga, he will belong to someone else, and that is definitely not you. Don't expect too much, just find your own happiness. You know, why do I still want you to go out and be nice to me? It's not because of my grandmother or father that my father doesn't even care. I don't know if you really have an appointment with him; I don't care. Grandpa? I don't think Grandpa is a primitive person either. Grandma? Likewise, he even advised you to find your own happiness, right? Then, why should I continue to be with you? Are you my best friend? I could have dumped you, but that's not it. You are human, and so am I. Treating humans like humans is difficult, Sky, and I don't want you to feel that I'm different, even though in reality you've seen me differently since dealing with Tirta. Casya explained, continuing with a look that was difficult to interpret, and this time Casya was sure that Sky would not always discuss Tirta in front of him.
"Whatever happens to me and Tirta, we can handle it. Always be a good friend; if one day I need you, I will always call you Sky... in the first place—even more than Reyhan, who is my adoptive cousin. He said it the last time, before the waiter came and took their orders.
Sky was silent for a long time; he didn't even touch his food much. He was still clearly remembering what Casya said to him until they went home; there was no conversation at all. Sky grabs her hair and ends up at a nightclub. And somehow Reyhan was there too. He happened to see Sky and ended up sitting near the man.
"Hi," said Reyhan.
Sky looked at Reyhan and chuckled.
"Are you drunk? Reyhan covered her nose because Sky was not feeling well.
"I'm not drunk; I don't even drink often. Sky did not accept being said to be drunk.
What? I've finished two bottles of this. How can you not get drunk? They say they rarely drink, and I see you're not someone who can stand drinking for long. Kekeh Reyhan, who sat next to him,
"Why? How come your face is so wrinkled? Reyhan asked again, taking the nuts that were in front of Sky.
"Why? You must hate me too, right? Sky asked with a sad look, but for a moment he chuckled again.
Reyhan shook his head, then nodded.
"I don't understand what you mean. It's just that I really hate you because you made Casya feel like a woman with no self-esteem for waiting after all this time. But it turns out... she lost, along with her own best friend—thrown so cruelly. Rehan said. But when he also has a partner, you approach him as if you care on behalf of a friend. And also, I don't like Tirta because of him and his past. I know about Tirta, but I also don't want Casya to be sad. If Casya herself doesn't refuse to be the child's mother, after all, why should I bother? I want Casya to be happy. It doesn't matter when he has to marry someone who has already been married or has to have children out of wedlock. because so am I. I even experienced it myself. Tirta also doesn't want the child to suffer injustice, even though he is rich, but people's views of children who have no father or mother, one of which is from an unclear marriage, are not an easy matter. That's because you were born into a complete family; Casya and I are different. Reyhan explained again. Sky never thought about things that far; he just thought that maybe they were too perfect for humans who were actually ordinary.
"But Casya was born from the marriage of her parents. Sky answered again.
"Unhappy. His parents' unhappy marriage That's what you mean. Reyhan got up after saying that and smiled at Sky, patted the man's shoulder, and said something that made Sky finally realise
"Never deal with other people's relationships, even if they are your friends, your parents, or your siblings. You just have to monitor them; if you really need them, you can intervene. Just remember that when they do ask you to help. That's where you have to help, not interfere. Reyhan really left, and Sky had forgotten about that since Maudy's accident. She didn't care who or how; she had to help and intervene because all she knew was that they were part of her life. Sky forgot that every human being has their own privacy.
