Bad Boy Agents

Go home

Mira and Barkah's eyes were still glaring in disbelief as he saw a young man sitting before him with an infusion pole on his left. Those wrinkled marsupial eyes looked teary and tiring of a circle of tears as it turned out that what he saw was really his eldest son.

At the door of Shaka's house, the pair of old men limped over to his son who always lowered his head and occasionally glanced in fear at the people who approached him.

Mira ran up to approach the young man and bowed her knees in front of Galih, her hands smothering her own mouth that wanted to scream to see the son she longed for finally coming home.

“Lo home? Hemh?” asked the woman in a trembling voice holding back tears.

Of course Galih did not answer him, his trembling hand still clasped Gayatri's hand which he had never let go since the girl had confirmed his desire to go home. This man only has one pedestal, the younger brother who is always by his side and protects from his fears.

“It's Worthy Bang, you inget right?” lure Gayatri, so that the man will come to his senses from his deep thoughts.

“Enyakk...” The young man's voice was quiet and was greeted with a cry by Mira.

“Iyaakk... This is Enyak Galih... Suck that is taffy and like neriakin lo if you have not woken up. It's good that can't sleep because you miss the same lo but don't have the guts to find you. This is Enyak Galih, this is Enyaakk...” The woman's cry broke while lapping her own chest that felt tight.

Back there, Barkah also rubbed his tears violently looking at the son who came home in this miserable condition.

“Enyaakk... Enyaaakk...” slow voice Galih that so thrill Mira heart. His son always looked down, but remembered himself well.

Without waiting for long, Mira immediately hugged her son tightly. It was so tight that Galih hid his face in Mira's soothing embrace. All this time he himself, full of fear, threatened the environment. But now, he felt he had returned to the right place, his mother's embrace.

“Body lo hot. Lo sick, hem?” ask the woman in her tears. He cupped both sides of his son's face, also examining his son's thin forehead and neck.

Galih did not reply, he was still between dreams and could realistically feel back his mother's embrace.

“How can you bring your brother home? Are you getting the same doctor? Then why not go back to our house, even to this house? Whose home is this?” barkah asked his daughter. His burly hand gently rubbed the back of the son he had missed.

“Later Aya certain Beh, Nyak. Now calm yourself first, do not touch the head Brother yes..” That was Gayatri's message, without letting go of her hand from Galih. The change in emotions within Galih, could be clearly felt from the grasp of his hand.

Barkah nodded in understanding, there was no other choice, other than to obey his daughter.

Satisfied with the longing, this time the three gathered in Shaka's living room. The jar was placed in a room near the living room with the door deliberately opened. I worry that man needs help.

"Why did you bring your brother here? Whose house is this, how big?" mira asked while looking around the house with many open areas. Rarely do divides that separate between rooms, making this house look very spacious with a warm room arrangement. Yellowish lights illuminate this room, as well as suit sofas and other furniture made seaestetic possible.

“Malem Nyak, Beh,” greet the voice of a young man who just arrived and immediately crucify Barkah and Mira alternately.

"Malem, why are you here too?" Mira's surprise is growing.

The man just smiled, then sat down next to Gayatri. The tall man, only returned after redeeming some of Galih's medicines

"This is Shaka Nyak's house, Beh." Gayatri answered quickly.

"Oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Your house is big, even though you live alone. Not afraid of you?" Mira leaned her body slightly on the young man.

"What are you afraid of? The devil?" The man replied casually.

"Ah lo there-there aja. Really, why was Galih brought here? You're not scolded the doctor brought her back?" Mira still with her high curiosity.

Shaka and Gayatri turn to each other, somehow they have to start a story that might be very surprising. The man seemed to nod, as Gayatri looked doubtful. "Your rights make it clear that it's as good and as Babeh" said Shaka with a thin line of smile. Gayatri only nodded weakly, agreeing with Shaka's words.

"What the hell is this? Why are you both so serious?" Mira looked at Gayatri and Shaka alternately.

"Yeah, you two don't want me to. We're both old, what hangers?" Barkah leaned towards Gayatri.

Gayatri is seen sighing deeply, then exhaling slowly before beginning her story. His hands twisted each other and tried to gather the courage to talk to his parents.

"Abang, indeed Aya brought it home because Aya wanted to take care of him. For a while, brother will stay here, nemenin Shaka. Brother needs a quiet environment and Aya will often come here to take care of brother." One explanation that Gayatri could just say.

"But your brother is sick Aya. Is there no danger of nitipin your brother here? What if your brother is not here anymore? This is going to bother people," Mira glanced at Shaka who looked calm.

"Nerepotin Kok Nyak. Anyway, I don't have any friends here. During the day, during Aya school, there will be two nurses who take care of Galih bang here. The doctor said, a calm condition and a feeling of security, is the thing that is needed the most. So according to Shaka, it's fine to bang Galih living here," Shaka added to calm the pair of old men down.

Mira and Barkah looked at each other, their hands clasping each other with feelings that could not be expressed. "If I was still working and the disaster did not happen to our family, I would give you the safest home for our children Mir," said Barkah with his sentence full of destitute. There was a lot of regret in him. He regretted that he could not be a figure that his small family could rely on.

"Lo, by the way, our family is not your responsibility. Although you are the head of the family, but I am the same children do not want to just be a burden lo doang. We have to work hard, in order to provide a safe shelter that is comfortable for our children, especially Galih." Mira chimed in on the sentence her husband was no less sad.

There are times when this tom and jery do get along, but why should it be in this sad atmosphere?

"Again, this is not the time for money. It's time to fix everything. You cry blood also will not take us suddenly on top again. We still have to work, no one can be in charge of our family other than our own." Mira confirmed her sentence.

Barkah does not chim. The man just sobbed while looking down. The weight on his shoulders was heavy, but he could not give up.

"Sin.. Beh... The existence of Galih here, is not a burden for Shaka. Shaka hope, it is also not a burden for Enyak, Babeh and Aya. Lagian Shaka is alone in this house, as Enyak said, it's scary living alone in a house this big."

"If there is a Galih bang, Shaka so there is a meeting. After all, according to doctors, bang Galih has been stable for several days. Importantly, reduce the things that can trigger fear and sadness. He can also take medicine regularly, so Shaka feels safe" Shaka added with confidence.

Mira and Barkah turned to each other, whether it was sign language they were using which clearly both nodded.

"If Babeh guards Galih fit you guys into school how? Let Bebh also be able to deket the Babeh child." Barkah's moon-eyes stared at Shaka and Gayatri alternately.

"No problem. But who helped you in whose shop?" Shaka asked back. However, the income wheel of the Barkah family must keep turning.

"Gue can find workers. Many young people need a job. Now, it's not only money to be sought, but also healing and caring for our children." Mira followed her husband's advice.

"Gue had permission from the big lady. How, can you not?" Rarkah looks so excited.

"Can. The door of this house is wide open for Enyak same Babeh. Just Shaka asking for one thing Enyak and Babeh, same thing,"

"What?" The pair of old men immediately subdued his body.

"Hide the existence of Galih bang in this place. Not for nothing, but for his safety and comfort. Do not let outsiders know Galih bang here and even interfere with His healing process. Can it be Beh, Nyak?" pinta Shaka really.

Shaka and Gayatri breathed a sigh of relief. Finally there is a way to protect the cave without keeping it away from the nearest family.
