BLUE METAVERSE

IN A NARROW ROOM

Blue doesn't remember anything. His head feels heavy. The earth feels irregularly tilted as it begins to open its eyes. Dens. He saw the atmosphere around him lying with his hands and feet tied. He was in a small, dull white-painted room. Spider nests are scattered on the ceiling. Dirty. This is a disgusting room. Although born an orphan, but Blue has never slept in this kind of unkempt room. Throughout his life he always obtained rooms with the standard comfort of star hotels. Where is he now? Who smothered him with that pungent-smelling handkerchief? It seemed like the handkerchief contained inhaled anesthetic that smelled similar to the smell of alcohol. Why was she kidnapped and why did they take her to this cramped, shabby room? The rain of questions filled his brain. Blue head is getting sicker.

Blue let out a long sigh and tried to move her body to gauge how strong the bond that chained her legs and hands was. Akh, not how strong. If his inner power is deployed, Blue thinks he can break away from the rope meshes made of nylon easily.

His head is still throbbing. Blue let herself be tied up first while resting waiting for her headache to subside.

What time is it? As he remembered, he closed the shop alone ahead of Maghrib. Other employees were busy serving booming visitors at restaurants and game houses. Closing the shop is easy. Just turn off the cashier's computer, turn off the lights, close the curtains, then lock the glass door. Blue doesn't need any help doing that kind of work. But it turns out his business is not just about his job, but his personal security. If this is the case, Blue tomorrow will not mind if Mbak Sari stalked him anywhere for his personal security. Jakarta is not the same as Jampang. There are bad people after him even though he does not know and does no harm to anyone. The reason is only one, because he is part of the family of Wirajaya Halim.

How are you with Satya's family? Right now they must be restless and busy looking for his existence. Sari's mom must have gotten her sap. He will be severely punished for his negligence. Blue is not afraid of kidnappers. He was worried about people who felt lost.

In order for the heart to be calmer, Blue turned his mind to pray and pray maghrib as best he could because he believed it must have passed from the azan maghrib. No matter what the situation, he always remembered his family and his pilgrimage to prioritize prayer. For Muslims, prayer is an obligation that must be fulfilled as long as humans are still in a conscious state. Let it not be ablution or tayamum because of circumstances. Allah is All-Knowing. Blue continued to say his maghrib prayers with gestures in his imagination. Until the greeting ended the third rakaat, there was no sign of anyone coming to see him in the room.

Chequek. Someone opened the door of the room violently. At first glance he saw a beautiful woman enter escorted by several women and men with sturdy bodies. Blue immediately closed his eyes, pretending to be unconscious. It's safer that way. He wondered what the people who kidnapped him were talking about.

“You must make sure not to kidnap people's children.”

“True, Mistress. We've been investigating him for a long time. It has been a few months this boy has been living in the house of Mr. Satya. Previously he lived in a boarding school located near the villa Miss Lily.”

Huh huh? They intend to kidnap Satya's son. So they thought Blue was Satya's son. The vow. Blue is eager to laugh at their stupidity but is oblivious because at this time he is still pretending to be unconscious.

“Why are the girls you brought here? Begos. You're wrong, Meng. Satya's first child was a boy. He's about 15 years old. Maybe now school at Junior High. I met when the kid was a toddler in Goldlight's office."

“If not the son of Mr Satya then who is he? He lives in the house of Mr. Satya, Madam. The clothes are nice and branded. It can't be a maid's son. After all his eyes are a bit narrow and a little similar to Mr. Satya.”

“Bego. Next time find the right information. Satya's first child who will inherit Goldlight's business empire is male and her eyes Blue like his wife's eyes.”

“Then who is he? What should we do, Madam?”

“Just throw him in a quiet park in the middle of the night.”

I heard the door slamming violently. Blue smiles in the heart. Bego kidnappers. Faiz should have been in his position by now, but the boy was lucky. At the launch of the second day he did not appear at all to the restaurant game house stub. Whether he already had the instinct of being hunted by people or just a coincidence. Blue doesn't know. Faiz said he was called Pakde Bas because suddenly there was a new type of virus attacking in the network security application he developed. Thank God, the boy had a stock of blessings and good luck in his life that made God willing to spare him from this kind of danger.

And what about Blue? His fate is unclear. The female lead kidnapper told his men to throw it in the park. Which park? Blue doesn't know where this is. Looks like the device as a smart clue is no longer with him. It must have been the kidnapper who took it. How did he get back home?

Slowly Blue opened her eyes. His headache has subsided a little. He saw a female bodyguard left in the room.

Blue turned to the right and left pretending to be confused. He also rubbed his eyes that were not itchy at all.

“Where am I?”

“Where am I, brother? Why are my hands and feet tied?” tanya Blue with a plain face. He pretended to be scared.

The young woman dressed in black T-shirts and jeans did not answer. It must be because the question was too to the point.

“I kebelet peed. Can you untie this and take me to the toilet?” Blue has another reason. In movies people pretend to want to pee to see opportunities to escape.

The woman did not flinch.

“You like it when this place stinks because I wet the bed?”

“Wait a minute! I asked the boss first.”

Although with his strength he can escape, but Blue chose to be patient and pretend to be stupid. While the female guard came out to meet her boss, Blue filled her time with dhikr so that her mind was not busy guessing something uncertain. Anxious it usually takes a lot of energy, but Blue must be more energy efficient to anticipate circumstances.

"Don't worry, Blue. Hasbunallah wa nikmal sure. Maula wa nikman nasir. Sufficient is Allah as a place of self for us, as well as our protector and benefactor” Blue uttered it over and over again while filling his lungs with more oxygen.

A beautiful woman whose face she had seen in the photos shown her family appeared from behind the door with the guard earlier. Blue was flabbergasted, yet lightning-fast immediately neutralized the situation. She must still look like a weakly helpless foolish girl.

His heart continued to wonder, was it true that what he was seeing right now was his biological mother? Why would he want to kidnap Faiz? What's the matter between her mother and her brother.

“You're aware?” His voice was soft but Blue saw flames blazing on his body. It seems that he is very upset with the stupid work of his men who can be switched targets.

“I kebelet peed, Madam.” replied Blue is somewhat flattened.

The woman whose face resembled the portrait of her mother looked at her sharply. Does the bond between mother and child exist? Blue wants to feel the warmth hugged by her biological mother. But it was just a dream. Do not expect an inner bond. A mother who can leave her orphaned child is definitely not a woman who has a heart. Blue glared, avoiding his gaze with hatred climbing the peak. His chest felt full and crowded. His hands clenched furiously. It should be the meeting of the mother and the child is the most romantic encounter that sweat the hug and kiss release longs.

“Open the bond and take her to the toilet. Don't stay in the toilet for long. Your maximum time is only 5 minutes.” he said firmly.

Blue did not answer. He was very disappointed with the attitude of a beautiful woman who was similar to his mother's photo. Consider it really dead. William Shakespeare said, Hope is the root of all pain in the heart. Really am. Blue wants to destroy the hope of meeting the mother who gave birth to it.

After her hands and feet were free from the knot, Blue followed the young woman escorting her to the toilet. Once again he stared intently at the beautiful woman who was the brain of his abduction. She really looks like a picture of her mother. Just look at the mole on the right side of her lips. Exactly. Women cannot age because of time.
