ALL ABOUT REVENGE

My Old Wound is Back Open

Half an hour later, Tama woke up. It takes too long to soak in water. As he stood up, he wiped his remaining tears.

" Dad said, the man must be strong. I can't cry too much. Even though I only live alone, I must be able to survive. I remember Dad's words. Fathering.. I'll always remember what you said." Tama said, then walked out of the bathroom.

Then he was confused when he was about to wear clothes. All of his clothes were scorched by fire when the fire broke out. He crouched down and thought.

" I don't have any more clothes. That shirt was Uncle's only gift. Should I wear it again? But the clothes are wet and dirty." Tama complained.

After thinking for quite a while, he found a way so that he could wear the shirt again.

She went to the bathroom to wash her clothes. With his little energy, he brushed and rubbed his dirty clothes gently. Sometimes he plays washing soap foam to make bubbles.

Laughter that he created himself, making the atmosphere of his home became quite crowded even though he was alone. While washing, he stood up and jumped up and down, blowing soaps soaring high up in the bathroom.

" Ahahaha, there are so many balloons. Mom, I can make soap balloons." Tama said as she shouted and laughed with excitement.

Before long, he felt tired and sleepy. Tama immediately finished her laundry and dried it inside the house.

The drowsiness that became more, making Tama unable to hold her eyes. He then laid his body on the chair without wearing any clothes.

...----------------...

Meanwhile, Bono and Bara have arrived in front of the wreckage of Tama's house. As far as they searched, they found no one. They have traveled in all directions, but there is no trace of Tama. It was like disappearing into the earth.

Desperation makes them stop and rest in front of the ruins of Tama's house.

" Bon, where else are we going to find that kid. We've been looking for him all day. But we didn't find him. We'd better get help, if we need to report to the police. We have no skills in finding something. Especially in the middle of a forest like this. There's no way we can find him."

" Are you desperate, Bar? If you don't want to look for it anymore, I'll find it myself. Asking for police help? Did you forget, we once asked the police for help to find out who the perpetrator of the burning of Mr. Tanu's house. What do we get now? They didn't give any news. They seem to have no intention of finding out who did it. Never mind.. We don't need to ask anyone for help. I think there's something wrong with the apparatus in this country."

" ah.. Sorry, Bon. Youre right. I was suspicious from the beginning. Why until now, the police have not told us. Looks like the search has been stopped unilaterally."

" They didn't stop their search, but they didn't. It's been.. I don't want to bother thinking about that. What's clear is that we shouldn't be dealing with the police."

" Okay, I'll just come with you. I don't have any other ideas."

" That's better. Come on, let's continue our search."

" Where are we going to find him? It should have been from the hospital to here, it must have taken a long time. Moreover, he just walked. There's no way he's gonna get here. Is he..."

" Don't connect with the mystical. I'm sure he survived. I'm sure he's still around here. Where else is it back, other than his house."

" but.. How did he get to this place. The distance from the hospital to the house is very far. Riding the bike alone, takes over an hour. Does he have science?"

" What a precise guess. Ja.. Maybe he has some science. But I don't know, what science does he have."

" What is possible? A little boy can have knowledge. Where'd he get it?"

" We don't know the family tree. It might be from his grandfather's legacy. I've heard, Bu Rani's parents have great inner science. No one can win against him. So I guess, Tama did inherit knowledge from her Grandpa."

" You're right. I remember, Mr. Wira also has a very great inner strength. Everyone was disinclined by him. Too bad, he died because of Ba*** that was!"

I know he's a ruthless criminal, but.."

" Why, Bon? Is there something you're hiding?"

Bono let out a strong breath. It's too hard to say. But he had to say it, even though he didn't want to expect it now.

" But he raised me. Feeding me even with dirty money. He taught me great martial arts. Actually, he helped me a lot."

" Bono, do you accept her attitude? Even if he raised you and took care of you, but it was all with the ill-gotten money. That should not be considered a merit. Bad people are still bad. Whatever he does, it doesn't make you good.

Do you remember, before you became you now, you were a ruthless criminal. You almost killed one of the residents of West Hill Slope. You also hurt many other people. You once desecrated Rika, an innocent girl who has never known a man. Then, what good is it to remember the good he did to you. Besides, you know who your parents really killed."

" that's enough.. Enough, Bar! Don't continue. My old wounds reopened when I remembered the truth I heard. Never mind.. We better continue our search. We'll try to find it on the hilltop there. Hopefully we get a lead."

" ah.. I'm sorry, Bon. I didn't mean to make your wound open. Then let's search now. Soon afternoon, if we don't find him up there, we'll just move on tomorrow morning."

" Come.." said Bono and then stood up and set his feet toward the top of the Hill followed by Bara beside him.

The day was getting late, Bono and Bara continued to search Tama to the top of the Hill. Meanwhile, a thin fog began to arrive up to the top of the Hill Peak.

Bara began to worry when it had arrived above the Peak, gradually the thin fog began to thicken and cover the view. He became unable to see well.

" Bono.. Are you sure you're going to continue our journey, this fog is getting thicker. My sight is blurred."

" If we can't find the boy today, I'm afraid he won't survive. If he has knowledge, if he does not eat, he will die. I don't want to waste my time. You just follow me. The road is right behind me and don't get away from me."

" Can you see with this thick fog? I'd better get down, anyway what can I look for with this thick fog."

" Don't underestimate me. I'm used to this kind of situation. My eyes are trained."

" But what about me, I'm not just hindering your journey."

" no.. You're pretty useful to me. You can help me when I'm in trouble."

" In a foggy place like this, what can I do for you?"

" Have it quiet, and just follow me. I'll definitely need you."

" All right.I wish I could find him around here. Otherwise, it would be a waste to have us in such a difficult place."

" Don't complain too much. We won't find anything if you always complain. Focus.do what you can do."

" Yes.iya." said Bara while grumbling.

Up to an hour at the top of the Hill, Bono and Bara get nothing. They found no sign of Tama at that place. After thinking for a long time, Bono decided to go down the Hill Peak because the day had begun to evening.
