Barsh And Kalistha (Something I Call Home)

Chapter 14: The journey that will be quite difficult

Arteta is reading some files in his office. His eyes were so serious about reading the entire paper.

I don't know how many hours? He closed the beam for a moment, throwing his breath rough.

"The problem is getting worse. Vile humans like them are faster in hell than bars!" he softly closed his eyes.

Arteta is reading through any crime records that Vince and Tressya have. The file is full of the names of dozens of innocent victims they killed.

The three-year hunt somehow Arteta will finish it. But, ferocious beasts should not be wandering around the city center for long.

Because Vince and Tressya kept the calamity to be bestowed on anyone who stood in his way, not looking at feathers.

A young man came in with two glasses of warm water. He approached Arteta, putting his drink next to Arteta.

"I was also very surprised sometimes. Why are there such humans in this hemisphere, should they just be wiped out huh?" the young man said, Arteta opened her eyes turning towards the young man. He is Alexo, his partner.

"But if people like them were to perish, we would be unemployed!" arteta said thinking if the creators of evil are eradicated on this earth.

Arteta sipped the warm drink that was beside her. Alexo was a little annoyed by his original partner's reply.

"You're a strange man! You just asked them to perish and then you're back?" ask Alexo to her. It made Arteta nod in hearing it.

"You who ask for their destruction send them in the stone age. Maybe a meteor could wipe them out!" arteta said to Alexo.

The clear answer from the genius Arteta again reminded Alexo that last night this girl was told to drink a lot of beer.

"It looks like this last night's beer effect made Arteta's imagination even wider!" alexo told him.

"Sometimes we need to fantasize to entertain ourselves. From a world that is not formed according to our wishes. So living in a delusion for a moment doesn't matter!" arteta answered what Alexo said.

Alexo was wasting his breath rough. Arteta is smarter and better at arguing.

Arteta recalls Vince's last words. He found something there too.

"Grapes!" areta suddenly said.

"Oh!" alexo was surprised. Alexo raised one eyebrow hearing that. Both eyes looked at Arteta.

"How many times has that vile man been caught?" ask Arteta. Alexo thought a little this time.

"It seems like five times but when he gets executed he always manages to escape!" alexo answered Arteta. Arteta thought again this time.

"Mean his men always follow him and are very loyal to him. How many of them are there?" ask Arteta again to Alexo.

"When I read your father's last file this mafia gang had about seven thousand men. But many have been caught as well maybe if the reasoned this time only about three thousand followers left!" alexo explained what he knew about the mafia.

Arteta nodded hearing that. Logic is working now.

"But there's no way those three thousand people are in this one country, right? Vince must have brought a few here. It might not be more than a hundred people!" guess Arteta. It seemed that the mathematical formula was currently filling his head. Alexo was astonished by the estimate.

"How is that possible?" ask Alexo to Arteta

He still doesn't understand.

"Because it is impossible to kill two people they involve three thousand people at once. Each member also has their own duties, right? Plus it's Vince's sister's personal matter. I don't think that's possible if three thousand people are here right now!" arteta said again.

His intelligent head instantly made Alexo nod in hearing that. Arteta looked at the watch in her hand.

"I'm leaving, there's something to be done!" arteta said, taking her bag and hurrying away from there. Alexo nodded at hearing that.

Elsewhere Barsh was walking leisurely in the town square. A little girl was on top of him.

It was Syena, Kalistha's sister who was in her arms. Barsh was taking her for a walk because Kalistha was busy with her exhibition. The two will meet for dinner tonight.

"That doll in the machine is funny can we go there?" syena asked sumingrah when she saw the machine full of the doll.

Barsh watched the machine from a distance and smiled.

"Was this little princess a doll maniac apparently? Tell me, am I or are you going to play Syena?" barsh asked Syena on it. Syena laughed at hearing that.

"Big brother is better than me!" syena told him. Barsh laughed hearing that.

Barsh approaches the machine buying some coins at someone guarding the machine. One by one the coins he used were already three coins.

But the doll still could not get. Syena puffed her cheeks like she was a little upset over Barsh's repeated failures this time around.

Barsh is frustrated. He who was upset randomized his own hair. He looked at that one coin in his hand while hoping that this time he would get it.

Barsh tries to put his last coin back in. When the coin came in suddenly a girl shifted herself from the front of the machine.

Barsh was surprised to see that. He gets even more upset when he learns that the girl is Arteta.

"This lousy human might be able to take this one doll. You wish on Syena's lousy man!" arteta said brag while moving the button on the machine.

The claw approached one of the puppets there. Syena smiled happily to see the teddy bear she wanted lifted.

Barsh is upset to see Areta this time. The machine rang while on the screen it was written win. This time Arteta gets a round of applause from Syena.

From below Arteta took the doll and handed it to Syena. The boy seemed very happy to receive the doll.

"Next time just rely on Arteta's sister. Barsh this can't be anything!" arteta said to Syena. The little girl nodded hearing that.

"Yes, you are better than me!" barsh said flattering Arteta. Arteta laughs at Barsh's resignation for her. Arteta soon searches for Kalistha's whereabouts.

"Where's Kalistha?" ask Areta to Barsh. Barsh raised his eyebrows while looking at Arteta.

"A little later, he was buying drinks at the minimarket!" barsh told him. Hearing that Arteta nodded small.

"Where are you after this?" ask Arteta to Barsh.

"I'll take him as far as possible!" barsh replied to Arteta.

That answer again made Arteta nod. Arteta remembered something about Syena. He stood before Syena this time.

"How's your leg? Is it no longer painful?" ask Arteta to Syena.

"A little, but not as bad as yesterday!" syena answered Arteta. Which makes Arteta show both thumbs in front of Syena with a smile.

"Well, that means you're gonna heal Syena. Today the doctor wants to see you again. He said there's a lot of presents after you've been treated. You want?" ask Arteta to Syena. The little girl looked at Arteta with a pleased look this time.

Then he nodded quickly. Barsh noticed the closeness of the two of them himself was quite happy to see that. His heart was relieved, it turned out that around Kalistha there were still good people.

"Good girl we wait for your sister for a minute!" said Arteta, gently rubbing Syena's head.

Not far from their place. Kalistha came out with her groceries. From a distance, he smiles at Arteta's presence there.

Arteta waved her hand, greeting her and vice versa. Kalistha walked over to them.

"It's very harmonious this little family huh?" arteta said when Kalistha arrived right next to Barsh.

Kalistha met to hear that. Unlike the Barsh who even rang while staring at Arteta.

"Je wish you a wish!" answer Barsh.

Kalistha began to wonder that Arteta was coming here. He also asked,

"What's up, Teta? Why did you meet me so early in the morning?" ask Kalistha. Arteta smiled hearing that.

"The doctor wants to see Syena. Is there any good news after this? Can I take him now?" ask Arteta.

Hearing the news, his heart was happy. Kalistha nodded in response to Arteta's request. She agrees that Syena will be with Arteta.

"Can!" answer Kalistha. Hearing that Arteta turned towards Syena.

"Little sister let's meet your gift!" arteta said right in front of Syena.

Syena nodded at Arteta's words. He was happy and he could not wait to see his gift.

"Be careful!" kalistha said to Arteta as the two began to move away from her.

"Yes, take it easy!" arteta said while helping Syena walk.

With a little teased Syena stepped slowly into the car Arteta. Before leaving Arteta waved her hand from the car window.
