BETWEEN THE CEO AND THE MAFIA

Travel Planning

Glek glek!

Bayu was trying out several rifles in one basement. The room measuring 3 x 4 meters is located under the stairs of the living room. There's a secret access door and a connecting staircase to get there.

One room was filled with various types of weapons from short barrel to long barrel. Bayu memorized all the types of weapons that were there.

FN FAL weapon with a length of 1 meter and weight of 4 kg, within 1 minute this machine gun is able to pass 700 rounds of bullets. The Heckler & Koch HK146 is the equivalent of the FN FAL and can fire 900 rounds per minute. Desert Eagle Marx XIX, a large-caliber semi-automatic pistol of Israeli production weighing 2 kg and 26 cm in length capable of killing people in one shot.

The choice fell on the tiny revolver type Ruler RCL. This type of gun weighs only 13.5 ounces, is 6.5 inches long and has a five-round cylinder. The material is made of aluminum and polymer frame. The shape is very small, easy to put in a pants pocket, tucked in the waist or tucked in the ankle.

Bayu made sure his gun was bullet-riddled before he slipped it into his pants pocket.

"Take this!" Bayu throws one of the guns at Ben. Glock 45 GAP a semi-automatic pistol made in Austria.

"Do we need to carry weapons, boss?" Ben looked at the gun his boss had given him.

"The enemy isn't just the police, Ben. There are also herds of jumping squirrels and business rivals that might also be a hindrance on the trip this time around. We should also get ready for that possibility."

Bayu fondling M16. The weapon is made of a mixture of plastic and light metal with the use of a 5.56mm caliber bullet that has a very elegant shape. It weighs 1 kg and is 1 meter long. The US weapon can fire 700-950 rounds per minute with a bullet speed of 944.88 meters per second.

"Preparation is done. Are we leaving now?"

Bayu glanced at his watch. It's still one in the morning.

"Is everything ready?"

"Already, Boss."

Bayu held a rope of rifle shields on his shoulder. The M16 is on his back. He brings a smile.

"Let's go!" his orders.

Soon Bayu walked up the stairs to leave the room. Ben followed her from behind.

In the living room, his people were already gathered and ready to stand by with their respective weapons. They are waiting for further instructions from Bayu.

"Give me the map!"

One of them gave a map containing the route of travel. Bayu carefully looked at the map.

"Which areas are vulnerable?" ask Bayu.

"The road trip we will take takes about five to seven hours to the port. There are three border points that are usually guarded by police. But, more to watch out for is the herd of jumping squirrels that usually act around the forest next door." the person pointed to the place on the map.

"They'll probably be after us for carrying the wood even though they don't know what exactly we're carrying. In action, usually in groups, can be 10-20 people."

Bayu smiled, "Yes, of course. That's the point we're carrying weapons."

"Is it not too conspicuous if there are many casualties?"

"Prepare for additional people to clear the road at the back. So, later we bring 3 jeeps to escort the truck. One jeep at the front secures the front, one jeep at the back secures the rear. And one additional jeep to anticipate if we need to clean up the bodies of bullies. Remember, jeeps should avoid police security posts. Are you guys ready?"

"Ready, Sir!" answer them in unison.

Bayu put his foot out. In the yard already parked several jeeps and a truck filled with logs. Bayu again smiled when he saw the wood on the truck was really like whole wood. Their work did not disappoint.

Bayu, Ben, and three of his men ride the front jeep. Followed by two people who served as a driver and kernet. The two rear jeeps are filled by five people each.

Vehicles began to walk to spread the silence of the night in the middle of the wilds of the palm forest. There was no sound other than the roar of the engine of the vehicle they were riding. The cold came out but had no effect on them at all.

"Where can I get a signal, Ben? Nice phones are useless here!" Bayu grunted annoyedly. His 25 million phone can't be used for communication at all. Without the signal, it was no different from a regular camera.

"After passing through this plantation there is a signal, sir." chirped his men who drove the jeep.

"Then drive this jeep quickly. I can't wait." he lamented as he looked at the portrait of Prita in his cell phone gallery.

Prita's photos on his phone are mostly taken while Prita is sleeping or photos secretly. Prita never wanted to be invited to take pictures, especially with her.

*****

Raeka was pensive on the balcony of her apartment. He stared blankly at the apartment across the street. Orion Tower, the 25-story apartment where Irgi now lives.

Since yesterday's incident, he has not met or just communicated with Irgi. Neither he nor Irgi wanted to start a conversation.

Their living quarters are visible to the near. However, he felt very far away from Irgi. It was no different when they were LDRs when Irgi was still in Singapore. Now, even though they were already in the same country, the same city, even the same district, but that distance partition remained. I don't know when their relationship will be so intimate.

Prita, though she is absent, Raeka feels that she is always present in her relationship with Irgi. No matter how good Irgi treated him, his heart still felt that half of Irgi's heart was in another place. Raeka can't have Irgi in one piece.

Continuing the relationship with the shadow Prita makes it tight until it is difficult to breathe. But, parting with Irgi made her suffer more and feel like she was going to die.

When Irgi decided to stay back in Indonesia, he already offered one of the units in his apartment. Yes, Raeka lives in one of the Tower apartment complexes with her father's Greenland Paradise hotel and mall. Irgi refused. The reason is, do not want people to consider him aji mumpung because of dating him.

But Raeka knows the real reason. He chose Orion Tower on the 20th floor next to Ayash's apartment. That is, he wants to stay close to Prita.

Raeka could only laugh bitterly remembering it. Why is Irgi still acting like that? Prita is dating Ayash. And that status still does not change Irgi's sweet treatment to Prita.

Double Date.that is also the reason that Irgi used to be able to go with Prita. Although there was himself there, but Irgi's eyes were always directed elsewhere. If Irgi really likes Prita, why is he not being straightforward? Why is she even dating him? Why was her attitude also sweet during the dating with him?

Raeka still doubts whether Irgi really loved her long ago. Or is the status of the courtship just to hide the true feelings to Prita.

Raeka took a long breath. The night air is getting colder. He went back into the room and closed the balcony door tightly.
