Cerpen An Orange Twilight


Flo kept running and running while she was crying.
She finally could run away from the hospital with infuse needle stick on her back hand. There was nothing on her mind except her best friend, Izi.
At a tea garden, that boy had been waiting so long. He united his hands to a fist and put it in front of his mouth. He looked at his watch on his left hand.
'I think she won't come. I'm sorry pal, this is what I have to do.' and finally he surrendered and began to walk.
Meanwhile, Flo was still running. Her face was so pale. She slow down her steps when she saw her best friend lost from her sight.
'Izi!' Flo screamed as loud as she could. Izi looked back, then he smiled.
Flo ran again with the tears in her cheek. While Izi was just quiet, waiting for her best friend come.
'Izi, you are wicked!' Flo directly embraced her best friend. She was crying and crying. And Izi just smiled again.
'I thought you would never come.' Izi said.
'You are stupid! Why did you go away without telling me?' Flo lowered her voice.
'I'm sorry. I don't want to make you sad. I expressly entrusted message to Aretha to tell you when I already left. Moreover, you were still staying at the hospital. I'm so sorry.'
Flo let off her embrace, 'Exactly, that what made me more sad, you know?! Why did you have to go?'
'Yeah, Flo. I have to go, I know, I don't want to go too. But this is my opportunity to go to Japan. Be calm, I will be back, trust me!' Izi tried to make his best friend calm.
'I know. Just go..'
Izi wiped Flo's tears, 'Flo, I promise, I will be back ten years later. Oh, as my best friend. I want you to keep this. Keep this camera, you can use it as long as I stay in Japan. Save more photos, after I back here.. I will dun. Deal?'
Flo startled, then she took the camera.
'So keep this camera. Don't make any damage on it. ^_^ '
They were silent for a while.
'Ok, I have to go now. The airplane will take off. Oh ya, one more thing.' Izi walked a little to the under of tea rows, then looked out upon Flo.
'Just for a memory, why don't you take my picture? Come on!'
Flo saw the twilight became orange, she turned on the camera and started to take Izi's picture with the perfect background.
'Ok, save it! I have to leave now, sayonara Flo!'
'…'
She smiled, 'Sayonara, Izi.'

The Painting of Destiny

"Are you sure of this, Navan?" The old pirate stared at King Mannas' chief merchant. However, his bright emerald green eyes sparkled with laughter. "The information came from Daoud, one of my former crew members, when I was ravaging the coastal villages of Vyrone." Navan smiled at the expression crossing Gerrod's face, whose family had fled from one of these villages. The Iron Falcon was a legend and parents had always used the threat of its crew and its flaming-haired captain to scare naughty children into sleeping and behaving differently. Gerrod quickly recovered and smiled. "Then he must be a man to be trusted, indeed." "Ah!" cried Navan. "Daoud will take the coin from the mouth of a dead man while it is still warm. I trust him only because he knows the fate of him who lies to me." I may have made him captain when I decided to infiltrate King Mannas' court, but he still knows who is in charge. "We must tell ...
