"If your mother wouldn't let you get close to Farel, what would you do?" flo asked Karen's soul.
"I don't know. All this time, I never thought about my mother's feelings. All I know is she's a strong woman. Even though my father had left us a long time ago, he had never once thought of himself." Flo just looked at Karen.
"Do you know why he's strong?" Karen shook her head, "because she has you." Karen shed her tears. He also decided to change places with Flo.
"Mother, let's go on vacation," Karen asked.
Astrid smiled and nodded her head quickly. "We haven't had a vacation together in a long time. Lastly, when you were 12."
Karen hugged her mother back. The old hug he didn't feel. Because all this time, he was just thinking about how to get Farel. I never thought about her mother again.
Flo lets Karen spend time with her mother. Seeing this, he missed his own mother. I don't know how much time he spent in the novel. What about time in the real world?
***
Karen really spent time with her mother. Vacationing to a beach, where they used to spend time. Flo stared with a smile from Karen's subconscious.
All day, Karen didn't make Farel or Arsen calls. Without Karen realizing it, the two men discover her whereabouts. Not only Karen and Astrid were shocked. Flo who could see them as if watching from the tv screen, frowned confusedly.
"What are they doing here?" ask Flo.
"Arsen" said Astrid.
"Hi, Auntie." Arsen kissed the back of Astrid's hand politely.
Farel did the same. Although Astrid's attitude towards him looks dislike. The man, trying to break the mother's heart from the woman he likes.
"Arsen, can you please accompany Karen?" pinta Astrid's.
Arsen looked surprised. But that didn't last long. A second later, he accepted it. Karen realized, her mother will have a serious conversation with Farel. There's a worry Karen can't express.
"You're afraid your mother still doesn't approve of your relationship?" ask Flo.
"That's not what I'm afraid of. I don't know, I can't describe my feelings."
Flo and Karen, now starting to be able to communicate with the inner. What Karen felt, now come with Flo. After all, his soul still depended on Karen's body.
Karen started to move away and sat on the rocks. Staring at the open ocean with the waves that sounded melodious in his ears. For a few minutes, there was no talk of anything between Arsen or Karen. In fact, Flo enjoys soothing nature singing.
"Do you love her?" Karen turned to hear the question that Arsen presented.
"Farel?" Arsen nodded.
His eyes were still staring straight at the vast horizon. Karen did not answer. He looked back at the ocean.
"I don't know. All I know is, I still feel the same pounding when I see it." Karen's reply, made Arsen turn his gaze.
Flo, who knew that, chose not to comment. After all, it's about Karen's feelings. Flo, can't go too far.
"What about me? Have you never put the same taste?" From his voice, can Flo and Karen make sure, the man is trying.
"Arsen, I already consider you as a friend and a sister. If I could control my heart so easily, I'd been diverting it a long time ago" Karen said.
"If I could, I wouldn't have killed myself. Especially if you need your help, Flo." Karen's words made Flo smile.
"You're right. Who knows, if your heart is still intact belonging to Farel."
Arsen no longer spoke. Karen turned her head, looking at her mother who was still involved in the conversation with Farel. I don't know what they're talking about, so it's more than 20 minutes.
"It turns out, I've lost before the war" said Arsen. The man lowered his head deeply.
"One day, you'll find a woman who loves you sincerely" Karen said, "sorry, because I can't return your feelings" she said.
"It's okay. Hopefully, the conversation of your aunt and the man of your choice, ends in your happiness." Arsen wished Karen all the best.
"Hopefully" said Karen.
The silence was re-created. They again enjoy the creation of God that lies ahead. Before long, a hug Karen received. He was shocked when he felt the tight embrace of a Farel.
"I love you" whispered the man behind her.
Karen was enjoying the thump of her heart that was starting to craze. Moreover, feeling the roar of Farel's breath in his earlobes. From Karen's subconscious, Flo feels happy.
"What are you talking about?" ask Karen.
I don't know since when, Arsen is no longer standing in his place. The man began to walk away from the two lovebirds. Farel looked at Karen in the eyes.
"Plan for our engagement." Karen's face was red.
"Have you convinced your mother?" Farel nodded.
"really?" Farel smiled.
"Come, let's ask your mother" Farel asked. Karen pursed her lips.
"Just calm. Mommy is sure of how I feel about you" he said.
Farel pulled Karen's fingers and kissed her. Flo smiled looking at the young couple. There is a longing for the lover and his parents who appear suddenly.
Flo saw a beam of light far away. Could that be the door for me to return? inner Flo.
"Karen, there's a light. Is that the door for me to return?" ask Flo.
"Go Flo. Thank you for all your help during this time. I promise to continue all your struggles. Go back to your world."
With a teardrop, Flo nodded and began to step towards that light. Hope after hope, began to knit in his mind. Gradually, he no longer stepped. But he started running. Tears are flowing more and more.
The miss felt more and more intense. He misses everything in his world. A little more, he will reach that light. The light that looks brighter.
Flo was running so fast that he could not see because of the glare he felt. Then, he opened his eyes slowly. The first thing he saw, was the room he had occupied all this time.
Smile expands. He knew he was now in the world he knew. Flo's hand was stretched out to look at her phone. Time, that's what Flo first made sure.
Flo let out a sigh of relief when he found out that time had been wasted only a few hours since he fell asleep. Apparently, her encounter with Karen, was her longest dream.
Before long, his phone rang. The call from Adri came in. Her smile was so sweet. Immediately, he raised the call.
"Hello, Mas," he said cheerfully.
"..."
Flo can't hear anything else Adri says. His phone fell with tears as if racing to get down. His tongue felt dull and unable to speak.
