Chapter 21

“If I can see pain in your eyes, then share with me your tears. If I can see the joy in your eyes, then share with me your smile.” – Santosh Kalwar
_____________________________________
Haru and Arche, on the seaside, were walking while holding thier hands. Haru enjoys spending the day with Arche because it might be the last day they can do it, and it might also be the last day she can be with Arche. Because in her mind, she wants to see Arche happy, so she trains Arche when she die, and when she is not by his side, it will be easy for Arche to forget Haru.
Until night came and everyone agreed to have a bonfire. They were all around in the middle of a fire and the others were holding marshmallows and hotdogs that they were grilling while chatting. Everyone was full of laughter except for one person. Haru was still quiet.
"What if we go hiking next time?" Samantha asked, and everyone agreed.
They stopped having fun when Haru suddenly asked a question, which surprised Jasper and Nicole.
"What if it's the last day we get to be with each other? Or it is the last day I am with you?"
"What's that question, Haru? We'll be together for a long time." Casey said everyone was more filled with silence because of what Haru said next question.
"What if I die today? What will you do?" Haru looked at everyone one by one and almost all of them were thinking about what to say. While Nicole and Jasper looked at each other and at the same time looked sadly at Haru. Because they know what she implies. They feel sorry for the people around them, especially for Arche, who didn't know about Haru's situation and about her questions.
"What are you saying, Haru?" 
"I know we won't lose one of us because we'll be together for a long time." 
"Haru, that won't happen,"  said of the others.
"For me, as I said earlier in the van. When you're gone, I'll follow you." Arche said, Haru smiled a little bit at what her boyfriend said and looked at Nikki when she was the one to speak.
"If you die now, I'll be happy." Nikki made a foolish statement, so other colleagues scolded her, but Haru stopped them. 
"Arche, your answer other than them, you're the only one wrong. Don't waste your life when I'm gone."
"Stop it Haru! You'd better eat that marshmallow; it's going to burn now." Nicole said, but Haru didn't obey her. Instead, she asked again.
"If you were to choose before you die, what would you want to see or do last?" No one tried to speak or answer because, to her question, only the sound of the waves of the sea not far from them could be heard.
"Me, if I have to choose before I die, I want to see the sunset with the person I love and catch a glimpse of his face and before I close my eyes, I want to feel the pouring of heavy rain that will touch my body. As if they crying because I was going to be lost in this world and feeling sorry for the people I was going to leave behind." Haru said and looked up at the sky and smiled with sadness in her eyes. Everyone looked at her as well as Arche.
"Oh, why are you all looking at me? And why all of you silent? Just ignore what I asked earlier. All of you was so serious." Haru laughed and she felt her stomach and head were hurting, so she quickly stood up and ran away from them. Arche would have stood up to follow Haru, but Nicole stopped him and she followed Haru.
"Omy god! Haru, are you okay? Damn, what am I going to do?"
"Arghhh ... N-Nicole It hurts, it hurts Nicole."
Haru said, writhing in pain while holding her stomach and one of her hands was holding her head.
"I didn't bring your medicine, Haru. What should I do?"
"Here, Nicole." Jasper suddenly appeared and was already carrying Haru's medicine. They immediately handed it to Haru.
"Haru? Are you okay now?" Nicole, with a worried face, asked Haru.
"I'm fine now, Nicole. We need to get back there." Haru said weakly. 
Nicole refused what Haru said because she needed to rest.
While Arche was with his colleagues, they were wonder by the actions of Jasper and Nicole, especially Haru.
"What's going on with Haru? Why is she suddenly asking questions and talking like that? I'm terrified of her." Kelly asked them.
"I don't know, I didn't know too much about her. She's very mysterious to us. She doesn't socialize with us."
"Yeah, when I saw her first, she looked like there was something strange about her."
"You, Arche, do you know Haru well?" Arche's eyes widened at Nikki's question. He didn't know what he would answer if he already knew it completely about Haru. 
"Y-yes." He wasn't sure of the answer to them. 
"I'll look them up," Arche said, and he stood up from his seat and left the friends.
On the other hand, Jasper noticed that Arche was approaching them. He didn't know what to do, so he immediately caught Nicole and Haru's attention.
"Da*n! Arche is going here." Both Nicole and Haru were shocked, so Nicole helped Haru stand up. When Arche approached them, he looked at them in astonishment.
"What happened to her?" He asked and his eyes were on Haru. She couldn't stand up straight. And the two do not know what to answer.
"S-she's too tired, Haru fell in the sand because she feels dizzy. Thanks to Nicole, because of her, she followed Haru." Jasper's lied to his friend.
"Is she okay?" He asked with a concerned voice, and he approached his girlfriend and carried it like a bridal style.
"Take me down Arche, I can walk," Haru said, but Arche didn't listen to her.
"No. Jasper said you're dizzy, so you might fall again if I do not carry you. Thank you, Nicole and Jasper. I'll take her to the room you're staying in." Arche said and walked away from Jasper. 
After Haru and Arche left, the two couples looked at each other. Jasper put his arm around Nicole's waist and told her that Haru would be fine when she rested.
