Section 24

"You remember that big house we passed when we came home?" Alisha asked Rain who the girl immediately nodded.

"That's Bryan's house" continued Alisha quietly. Rain's eyes instantly sparkled. Enthusiastically, A asks Alisha to drive him there and introduce herself to Bryan's parents. The other two girls who heard him stared at Rain strangely. Rain is so lebay. Alisha then said that Bryan's parents were no longer there to make Rain fall silent for a moment.

“His parents have long since died. So, she lives with her foster grandmother,” explained Alisha slowly. Hearing the words of the foster grandmother, Ara and Rain scrunched their foreheads confused. They looked at Alisha as if asking for more explanation. Sensitive Alisha soon tells Bryan's story further.

“He was raised by the Aldebra family who are a distinguished family here,” the story.

“Grandmother once said if in the past children, daughters-in-law and grandchildren of the Aldebra family disappeared suddenly without anyone knowing it. The husband of Bryan's foster grandmother had tried to find him even help from the residents as well. However, the results are nil," explained Alisha.

"Until when Bryan's foster grandmother's husband died. He met Bryan at the orphanage. Bryan reminded him of his favorite grandson. He then immediately adopted Bryan to be his grandson," continued Alisha. He took a slow breath after a long story.

“Then how now?” ask Ara curiously. "Has their family not been found?"

“Yes. Still haven't met,” nods Alisha. The pitying Rain looked at Alisha sadly. He asked if Bryan knew about his foster family. He smiled when he saw Alisha nod.

“Of course he knows. He did not mind it because Bryan loved his foster grandmother very much,” said Alisha.

“Really pity” iba Rain. She looks forward to imagining the fate of Bryan's foster grandmother and her husband. Ah.. He doesn't know what to do if he's the one in that position. It must be very painful if at one time he loses the entire family he loves.

“But, if this is a crime, it is impossible that no trace is left behind, Al," Ara chirped suddenly. Alisha and Rain immediately turned to Ara who was propping up her chin. Rain justifies the word Ara. It's impossible if the police don't get any leads.

“It seems like a planned crime!" Connect with Ara again. However, this time, Rain did not justify his words. He has his own thoughts. Alisha listened to their conversation in silence. In the past, he also thought the same as Ara. It is strange that his entire family is missing and has not been found. They may have been killed for a long time because of a grudge.

“Can they leave without asking permission,” Rain said thinking positively. Hearing him, Ara shook her head in disapproval.

“It seems impossible, Rain. If it is like that, it is definitely easy to solve,” said Ara. Just as Rain was about to answer Ara's words, Alisha immediately interrupted their conversation.

“Jeez, what's wrong with you guys, anyway? You guys are acting like you two are detectives! So annoying? The aspiring detective is me!” spray Alisha rolling her eyeballs. Ara and Rain were shocked to hear that.

“Al, we are indeed a reliable detective team. But, since when do you aspire to be a detective? Don't you want to be a hacker?” answer Rain. Alisha never wanted to be a detective.

“Heol, who said? Alisha's mom can't be found yet!” ara's teasing of Rain made Alisha chuckle.

"After all.. Since when do you want to be a detective, Al?" Ara now asks Alisha. Alisha suddenly stopped chuckling and just smiled wryly.

"Since the founding of Al2aint, perhaps?" Slowly follow.

"Yeuu"

Ara and Rain cheered Alisha upon hearing the girl's reply. They even pelted Alisha with pillows or dolls that were around the three. Alisha herself just chuckled in shame.

“Quiet we must find Mamah Alisha. We just need to try harder,” Rain said suddenly. Alisha and Ara stopped their jokes and turned their attention to Rain. The two of them nodded in agreement with Rain's words. They, especially Alisha, are convinced that they will be able to find her mother.

“Oh, yes. Tomorrow morning we will return to Jakarta. I already booked the ticket,” said Alisha to surprise her two best friends. Moreover Rain, he had already widened his eyes in disbelief.

“Really? You said we're going on vacation for the next two days? Why did the plan change?” tanya Rain was upset. Because, from the beginning they have promised to vacation in Bandung for four days. But, now the white girl in glasses even changed her schedule without talking about it first to herself and Ara.

“Iya. Anyway, I forgot that four more days will be held midterm. Did you guys forget?” sahut Alisha relax. Ara and Rain now widened their eyes in shock. They forget that the midterms will come early.

Moreover, Ara, it was only appropriate if their family driver was a little unwilling if Ara went on vacation on the grounds of the exam in a moment. Ara thought the exam was coming in two weeks away, so she calmed down a bit for a vacation. Do not ask where the driver knows, we certainly already know if their relationship is like father and son.

"Damn it! I forgot about that! I don't think it's changed the schedule!" Heboh Rain's. He had completely forgotten about this just like Ara. He then grunted in annoyance.

“Ah..not cool. Right, Ra?” lethargic Rain then turned to Ara. However, the response he got was only Ara who was silent daydreaming not responding to his words.

“Gosh, did he start again?” asked Rain to Alisha who just put her shoulder indifferently in response. Rain snorted in annoyance. Then, an idea popped up in his brain. He picked up the bolster next to him and heartlessly poked Ara from behind using the bolster.

Ara who was daydreaming was surprised to receive a sudden attack from Rain to make him fall from the bed. He complained in pain as his back landed smoothly on the cold room floor. He fell on his back to make Rain and Alisha laugh out loud seeing the pained face of the round glasses girl.

“Ra, are you okay? It must have hurt,” asked Alisha in a worried tone. Contrast with a flushed face to hold back his laughter. He's still laughing now. Ara got up with a face that was flushed with embarrassment as well as anger.

“Rain, are you crazy? What if I'm a concussion?” hardik Ara with a slightly irritated tone. He got up and rubbed his ass and back.

“Ck! That's not possible. Your head will be as strong as steel, it is impossible that you will be hit by a concussion of the brain,” chirped Rain who held pain in his stomach due to laughter. Ara and Alisha responded to Rain with different expressions. Ara who was increasingly showing a look of annoyance, while Alisha who had returned laughed loudly.

“Damn it!” rutuk Ara's. He then took the pillow in Rain's lap and prepared to reply to the girl's actions. However, deftly Rain managed to dodge the attack. The attack was about Alisha. Because his position on the edge of the bed is the same as Ara's position before falling, he was too shaken because of the strong hit of Ara to make him fall to the bedside just like Ara experienced.

“Aw.. it hurts so much my butt and waist!” curse Alisha. Ara grimaced at him and took the initiative to help Alisha stand up, while Rain grew louder.

“RAIN!” yelling Ara and Alisha together then attacked Rain blindly with a pillow or doll that was within their reach. The three end up in a pillow fight until they are exhausted and agree to stop.

“Yes. I am also very hungry,” said Alisha nodded slowly. He briefly set his breath back to normal.

“We don't have food” said Ara lethargic. He is also the same as his two friends who are busy regulating each other's breath.

“Who said? 'And my instant noodle stock is unlimited!” kilah Rain is proud. He went to his mikikikik bag intending to take out his instant noodles for the three of them to eat.

“Mie instant again?” asked Ara a little unwillingly. He was very nervous because he ate instant noodles during their time in Bandung. Can't they eat out or at least buy any food as long as it's not instant noodles? After all, it was also not good for the health of the three of them.

“Already, the important thing we eat. Come!” invite Alisha to pull Ara's hand to immediately go to the kitchen to follow Rain who has been lost behind the bedroom door. Ara tried to rebel and whine about his desire to find food outside, however, his whimper was only avenged by the demen or intentions of Alisha. He can only surrender.

The Bandung-Jakarta train has been departing since five minutes ago. As when leaving for Bandung, Rain sat next to Ara while Alisha sat alone.

Before leaving, they had to say goodbye to Bryan and his grandmother. Bryan's grandmother said that Alisha had to go on vacation to Bandung often to play in their house. Alisha also promised to come again in the near future to make Rain look at her with sparkling eyes.

Alisha and Rain were playing on their phones, while Ara was thinking about something in her mind. It seems, lately daydreaming is a new hobby that Ara has. Alisha and Rain choose not to care.

'Is he still alive? But, it's impossible!' he said in his heart. Ara was getting frustrated with her thoughts. The girl snorted loudly making Rain's focus split. Rain who was streaming the film also glanced at Ara with a look of wonder.

‘Did he really admit a ghost?’ ask Rain in his heart.

The girl then chose to pause the film she watched and remove the earphones attached to her ears. He then called the name Ara slowly to attract Ara attention. But as he expected, the girl just kept silent not hearing Rain's call.

“Hey, New Monotone!” call Rain once more now by patting Ara on the shoulder. The one who was patted felt surprised and looked over.

“There's ap-Heol! What the fuck with that monotonous call?” exclaiming Ara looked at Rain annoyed. He knew the call was meant for him. The one stared back at him flatly.

“Yup, Nyai Monoton” nods Rain with great emphasis. They stared fiercely for a moment.

On the other hand, Alisha paid no heed to the two. The girl was busy chatting with Bryan. Bryan says that Alisha should come for her upcoming birthday soon. The girl promised to come and bring her two best friends.

“Heol, good! My name is Ara know?” sahut Ara was upset. He even glanced at Rain who was now smiling mockingly making the girl even more annoyed at him.

“Yayaya! I know it. But, you are too monotonous, Ra” said Rain repeated his words the other day making Ara feel deja vu with this situation.

“Better monotony than like you whose life is too complicated!” reply Ara with emphasis on the word ‘complicated’ makes Rain now upset.

“At least my life is full of colors,” Rain said. Both of them again looked fiercely until Alisha's voice shifted their attention to the girl.

“On the train still behave like children?” chirping Alisha suddenly glanced at the two cynically. His sharp eyes made an even more sinister impression on his face. It made both Ara and Rain feel guilty. A cynical expression with a sharp gaze belonging to Alisha made both of them feel intimidated and chose not to mess around.

“We're not fighting, Al," said Rain with a big smile. Ara nodded confirming the words of the girl beside her.

“Then?” short Alisha who re-routed her attention on her mobile phone.

“We're playing a debate only. Right, Ra?” sahut Rain asks for Ara's approval again. The one spoken to only shrugged his shoulders indifferently and chose to play his phone. It made Rain anxious to grab the girl's hair as hard as he could.

“Samely, Rain.”

“ Of course different, Al.”

“As far as you are.”
