Blue Berets
96. The Disaster that Came Back
Deden has just moved up the ranks. After devoting himself for 12 years, they are now appointed to the post of Chief of Police. Although he had to be mutated to another place, he was still proud. After all, not only himself but also his best friend Odi also mutated and became his aide.
The deden that had just been lifted obviously became busy all of a sudden. What's more in a new place, even though it's not far from where it was before but he still has to adapt. Deden had just washed his face when Odi approached him. Odi carried a blue stopmap and stood quietly waiting for Deden to finish his business.
“Bang..,” said.
“Udah ready?”
“Already.”
Deden stepped down the hallway. When he tried to get Odi to talk, the man instead of answering, became quieter. Deden then turned his head back and began to realize the sad look on the face of his co-worker.
“Sick In?” ask Deden.
“Ngak Bang.”
“Keep that moody why? Any problems with wife?”
“Ngak also Bang,” replied Odi this time while shaking his head.
“Terus?”
“Today the perpetrator who once hurt the wife of the late Bang Raihan will be released,” he said in an even sadder tone.
“You mean the rapist**n it?”
“Iya..,”
Deden. He was silent before continuing his steps while daydreaming, “mau how else, the culprit has a strong backing. Already mending he was punished,” said Deden who continued to look ahead.
“But it is not fair Bang, the perpetrator is not only hurting Ms Kirana. He also hurt a lot of other women before,” Odi said.
“His name lives in the world, Di. Nothing is really fair here. The law of the jungle remains in effect. If you want to survive, the only way is to be strong. Let no one destroy you. Just like the perpetrator, he tried to be strong until the law alone was unable to block him.”

“Aa woke up...,” called Kirana because she found that Galih and her daughter were going back to sleep after dawn prayers.
“Hmm.”
“Ami woke up,” this time Kirana called Amira.
“Hmm.”
Both of them moved a little and then went back to sleep. Amira sleeps where Kirana used to sleep while Galih sleeps curled up next to her daughter. Kirana held onto her stomach then bowed slightly to reveal the blanket that Galih was wearing.
“Papa..., it's 6 o'clock,” Kirana said.
“Mama lied yes,” replied Galih.
“Jeez Papa, there's no way I'm lying. Tuh see the clock is 6 hours more,” said Kirana again.
He then sat down next to Galih then stretched his hand to pat Amira who was still comfortable in her sleep.
“Honey wake up come on, we go to school.”
“Mama..., Amira can not go to school?” ask Amira.
“Why?”
“Head of Amira dizzy Mama,” said.
Galih immediately woke up and pressed her hand against Amira's forehead. Kirana approached Amira. With understanding Kirana sat next to Amira then stroked her head, “Ami, you finished praying and went to sleep. What time does Ami pray?”
“Jam 5”
“But Ami is not strong Mama, dizzy,” he said again.
“Ya already but promise yes today only tomorrow-tomorrow no,” said Kirana.
“Iya..,”

Kirana and Lucy were sitting in a cafe all day. They are busy evaluating the work of their employees. Starting from the monthly performance evaluation, financial statements, to discuss the target next month. Kirana does her job while continuing to snack. He was always hungry at this time. Counted already 2 times he ordered delivery messages with no small portion during this half day.
“Waw, amazing you eat it Ki,” said Lucy who had been trying to finish the rice box.
“No idea how laper feels. When I thought I had to shake the doctor instead said to eat a lot. Yesterday when checking up his weight was a bit less had time to wear it too I,” said Kirana.
“Given his health huh Ki, good luck. I hope you can be normal,” said Lucy.
“Aamiin..,”
“Eh Ki, how does it feel? Does the wound still like pain?”
“Lumayan. If the one in the stomach shakes and fits the wound, yes, the feeling of twitching. But the pain this time was not felt because I lost the same happiness I felt. Moreover, a Galih was very attentive Cy. He if you want to sleep always hug, if dinner is also often nyapuin. It's a pity anyway,” said Kirana with a sparkling face.
Lucy smilingly looked at Kirana who was telling her husband with pride and affection. Kirana seemed to love her husband. In retrospect, Kirana has never told her lover in this exited way. Even about Keenan.
Lucy smiled as she listened to Kirana continue to tell her story without pause. Lucy is grateful Kirana has finally found the one that is best for her. She was grateful that Kirana, her brother-in-law, had finally found her true happiness. Lucy inwardly prayed, hopefully with Galih Kirana will be happy, hopefully Galih will be her last love that will always be with her and always accompany her.
“Mission, Mbak?” call Dimas.
“Why?”
“Can you ask for help at the cashier? More crowded nih,” said.
“Let me alone,” Kirana who answered first.
“Eh you take a break Ki, your hard-working time I diem. Bumil sits a henchman here huh,” said Lucy prevented Kirana from leaving.
“Ngak papa's. This is what is asked to be moved about. Later if I'm tired of you changing yes,” said Kirana finally embraced by Lucy.

Adnan walked out of the headquarters gate towards the other side of the road. After walking for several tens of meters he met an ATM then he started to step inside. Adnan continued to hum as his left hand touched the ATM doorknob and his foot stepped in.
He was inside the ATM not so long ago and went back out to immediately return to headquarters. He was already looking forward to meeting his son and wife today. In his heart Adnan hoped that Lucy would give him something today. Usually his wife can suddenly be sweet if you get a salary transfer from her husband. So Adnan likes to use it to get what he wants.
Just had time Adnan turned down the road, he passed a man.
“Long time no see, Adnan Dzaki,” said.
Adnan automatically stopped and turned his head towards the man who was dressed quite covered. It took a while for Adnan to finally remember who this familiar-looking man was.
“You?!”
“Hmm, still remember you apparently,” he said with a scary grin.
“You want to come again? Do you miss bui kah? Want me to post it again?” adnan said it did not lose to sarcasm.
“Please if you can.”
“You ruined my family's life and you still dare to challenge me? Remember that! There will be no congratulations to you,” Adnan said before he walked away from the man just like that.
“I don't care if you're going to imprison me or kill me. As long as I can enjoy what I haven't had the chance to enjoy that night. Well think of this as my last request before you execute the venerable master brimob,” he said made Adnan more emotional.
