BUNCHES

CHAPTER 25

In the afternoon, cloudy weather even heard the sound of lightning rolling along the way Cici picked up Akmal in his office. Their habit, if the Cici who carries a vehicle will visit Akmal to the office, and vice versa.

Akmal is waiting for his beloved wife in front of the office with other co-workers including Dony.

They plan to visit Sony at home. The last time they heard from his office colleagues, suffered severe depression because his broken leg had to be amputated. It was a great surprise to hear the news.

Cici parked her car in the parking lot, honking her horn to have her beloved husband approach her.

Rushing Akmal approached the wife to invite along some colleagues who want to visit the Sony residence.

Dony took his motorbike off following the direction of his best friend Akmal's vehicle.

They left the branch office to the Sony residence, because they did not want to be too late to return to their respective homes.

Sony's residence looks very simple, in a subsidized housing that is a fair distance from their office.

It was seen that Sony's wife welcomed the arrival of her husband's co-workers. The woman who is said to be strong in dealing with Sony's condition that looks depressed since losing one leg with all the grief over the past few months.

"Assynn...!!"

As they said their greetings before entering the house that looked gloomy.

"Waalaikumsalam," Sarah opened the door, "Come Brother, Bang." he asked Akmal and all the colleagues who had stood in front of the entrance.

Cici pulled Akmal's hand, whispering a little, "You guys here, you got nothing? Mr Sukoco why not come?" tanyakanya.

Akmal took out a brown envelope containing donations from colleagues they had prepared before heading to Sony's house.

"We've prepared this, Mi!" point Akmal at the envelope in his shirt bag.

Cici smiled, immediately his eyes saw something unusual when he went back into the Sony house. Since he can see the existence of invisible creatures, he can see something that is very disturbing at Sony residence.

The figure of a headless woman approached Cici. He could only close his eyes and squeeze the hand of someone next to him.

Akmal, who was next to Cici, grimaced in pain as he got a squeeze from the fingers of his beloved wife, "Auuugh.... Ami, this hurts so much...!!" the upset.

Cici opened her eyes slowly, looking for the invisible woman's figure to disappear instantly from the Sony residence, due to Akmal's presence.

Cici again whispered to Akmal, "It seems they are afraid of Abi, because Abi is Datuk Rajo Mudo!"

Akmal fell silent, asking Sony's wife, "Sarah, where is Sony? Did he not know we were coming?"

Sarah turned to Akmal, bowing respectfully to her husband's best friend, "Bang Sony in the room! He's been locked up for a long time, without socializing like he used to, Bang. I'm worried because things are getting worse."

Sarah's words made Akmal and Cici even more worried.

Rushing Akmal to find the whereabouts of Sony left other colleagues in the guest room, including Cici. How surprised he was, seeing Sony who was curled up in the dark corner of the bedroom bed without wearing clothes.

The room that is not illuminated enough light makes Akmal increasingly worried about the condition of his best friend. He closed the door at Sarah's request, embarrassed by the stinking, stuffy room.

Sony looked at Akmal, hugging his best friend tightly, "I'm sorry, Mal.... I thought you were dead? It was like arguing with a woman who wanted to take your hat! I pulled it, so I fell on the rocks I was unaware of! My leg is broken now, Mal! I lost my leg! I lost my job! I lost everything! How will I meet the needs of my family? While my condition is like this, Akmal!" she cried in the arms of the friend she missed.

Akmal flinched, so many sacrificed in search of his whereabouts at the time. Instantly Akmal's eyes glazed over, he was just trying hard in the face of such a difficult situation right now.

Sony is a friend and co-worker of Akmal, who is always cheerful all the time. Very different from the current figure of Sony looks shabby and old.

"What's wrong with him? Why is he like this? This is not the friend I know. I have to help Sony immediately, however she goes through this because of me," Akmal's inner clutching tightly onto Sony's body.

Akmal took off his embrace, choosing to sit next to Sony, precisely covered in a bed that looked shabby.

"I'll take Mira to Malacca, are you willing to come with me? We can make fake legs, or check your condition! You still have no children! I feel sorry for my daughter Mira, who has been in a state of silence since I returned!" akmal's story without looking at Sony.

Sony looked fixedly at Akmal's calm face, even more authoritative than usual, "Am I not burdensome to you? You know, I can't leave Sarah! And going there costs a lot, Mal!" he said full of doubt.

Akmal smiled confirming, "Relax! The important thing is tomorrow you get ready, I'll pick you up!"

Hearing Akmal's very convincing speech, makes Sony excited again. Her shabby face, looked brighter and full of passion.

How not, the house that looks gloomy immediately looks brighter, not even looks gloomy even though the atmosphere is messy. Dirty clothes scattered on the floor, even mixed with doormats.

Sony grabbed the stick next to the bed, turned to Akmal, "I don't think you're going to see a friend who's no longer legged and isn't considered by the boss himself! I'm gonna resign from my job, and start opening a business. Mumpung is young. Sarah is also an online novelist on one of the platforms, because of her belief that she can earn money from it" she explained before entering the bathroom.

Akmal was silent, "Thank God, but did Mr Sukoco never visit the Sony residence? Why?" he murmured in the heart.

Akmal shook his head, moved out of the room, re-assembled with other colleagues including Cici.

Sarah, who was preparing dinner, asked Akmal as she passed the door, "How's Bang?"

Akmal smiled at Sarah, "Relax, Sony's cleaning up in the bathroom!" he said passing by to Cici.

The tenga-looking Cici enjoyed a cup of tea and a few snacks, giving Akmal space to sit next to him.

"Where's Bi? Is Sony okay?" whispered kelinga Akmal.

Akmal nodded, looking for Dony's whereabouts.

"Eh.... Didn't you see Dony? Dony isn't nyampe yet?" akmal asked the other colleague.

Dony appeared at the door, with a confused face, "I'm here....! Oya, that's why are they bustling out of here? What was the event just now?" tanyakanya.

Cici and Akmal stared at each other, as did the other co-workers. How could anyone else come out of the Sony residence, while Sarah just a few minutes open the door for them.

Cici stared fixedly at Dony's eyes, "I mean? Where are people from, Don?"

Dony grabbed his own hair, "Oh my God, there's a troupe of women out of here. He said there's a grandfather here, they're scared! I thought, Where's grandfather?" the story with faces getting confused.

"Cough.....!? Which grandfather!?"
