"Mama... Papa.. huhuhu.... " Prita sobbing in Bayu's arms.
The sadness that had been long hidden now re-emerged. He missed his parents who he could no longer meet.
"Om why is evil.. makes me live as a country.... "
"I'm sorry, Prita. He was very afraid of prison. Meanwhile, your father kept urging me to turn myself in to the police. I can't think straight." Robi brings tears. "Honestly, after that five years ago, I never forgot it for a second. I, have killed my own brother. Every night I'm haunted by guilt. But, um really scared of being imprisoned, Prita. Om really sorry.... "
The accident coincided with Prita's graduation day. That afternoon, Prita's parents were supposed to pick her up at home. They will have lunch together to celebrate their graduation.
His mother, Sukma, had prepared a gift for him. A luxury watch and a pair of high hells shoes wrapped neatly in a paperbag.
Prita is an only child. But, she was never spoiled or demanded luxury items despite her family's sufficiency. His appearance is mediocre when compared to his friends. Maybe that's why her mommy dad wanted to give her that gift.
Congratulations on graduating, baby....
May your day always be surrounded by love and happiness. Wear this watch when you walk into your new world on campus. And this beautiful pair of shoes... May you take you to a beautiful place.
with love, with,
mom & dad
Such was the sound of writing found not far from the scene. The gift of shoes and watches was damaged by the explosion. Only the message remains intact.
That day, the news of his parents' death became a bitter gift of his graduation. People came to his house, not to congratulate him on his graduation, but to offer condolences.
At that time, his mother was also present at the feeding of his parents. After that, he disappeared somewhere. Prita had to hear the news that his uncle had run away carrying all his father's assets.
At that time he was completely alone. There are no family. His friends one by one went to reach his goals. Meanwhile, he decided not to go to college. The death of both his parents was truly the deepest turning point in his life.
Does his uncle deserve forgiveness? Did he have to imprison his uncle, so that he too might feel the pain of life? Or... should he let Bayu shoot him? A man like his uncle does not deserve to be allowed to live in the world.
"I want to get out of here." said Prita.
"Can I shoot him now?" ask Bayu. He could not bear to break the head of the old man who had made his woman sad.
Prita.
Bayu scrunched his forehead, he did not know what the woman was thinking. How could he still think after hearing everything his uncle had told him? Didn't his uncle deserve to die.
"Of... I'm not going to kill you. I'm not going to put him in jail either. Because I don't want to be a villain like om. I want to let you live and remember everything you did to my family forever. Please, go as far as possible. Don't let us see each other or see each other again for life. Let's just say we're nobody. Let's live in each other's world."
"Print... Pritas... Forgive om.... " Om Robi cries for forgiveness.
"Om. don't apologize to me. Apologize to mom and dad when you meet in another universe. Explain everything to them." Prita rubbed the rest of her tears flowing down her cheeks. He turned around and started walking away from his uncle. Bayu followed him from behind.
"Print... Prita.... " Om Robi kept calling Prita's name while staring at the back that was getting away from her.
What does it mean now regret. Time cannot be turned back to yesterday. Today is because of yesterday. Today's regrets are due to yesterday's mistakes.
"Please let go of me." said Prita after returning to the room.
"What's? That easy as you forgive her?" Bayu was not inexhaustible with the way Prita thought. He should have shot it and it's all over.
"Killing or imprisoning him won't bring my parents back to life either."
"At least your revenge can be avenged."
Bayu immediately hugged his woman, "You are indeed an angel. Ah, forget about this. I'll take you to dinner in a beautiful place."
*****
The meeting just finished. Ayash stretched his stiff body. All of his team members had gone home first to the inn. He was deliberately waiting for a quiet room until everyone came out of the meeting room. He's waiting for someone.
Tok tok...
the sound of the door knocking.
"Look in." he ordered.
A well-built man wearing a hat and mask entered the room. Ayash invited him to sit down. That person was one of the people he was assigned to look for Prita's whereabouts in J City.
"How's it?" Ayash could not wait to hear the report.
"Really, Sir. Miss Prita lives in one of these apartment units."
Berati, the person he saw in front of the elevator was Prita. I want him to scream so loud. Prita was in front of him, but he easily lost track of her.
Ayash let out a long sigh, "On what floor?"
"Unit 1534 29th floor."
"My earrings are there."
"Currently I can't, sir."
"Why?"
"This is Tiger King's property, sir. The security here is pretty tight. Privacy is also very awake. Especially for the unit that can only be accessed by certain people."
Ayash rubbed his face. He had almost forgotten that this city was the center of the Tiger King. "What should we do now."
"You just calm down. We'll try to break into their security systems."
"Related, can?"
"We will try. Because if you have to face the physical it feels impossible. They were numerous and scattered everywhere."
"Well, I'll keep waiting for news from you."
"I'll excuse you then."
"Wait a minute!" Ayash restrained his spies who were about to leave. "Please rent an apartment unit whose access is somewhat close to the unit."
"Good, sir."
"Use someone else's identity to rent it. Don't let Bayu know I'm here."
"I understand." the man immediately walked out of the meeting room.
Ayash was still sitting there. Opened a mobile phone gallery, looking at a collection of portraits of Prita that he once captured. He misses her so much.
