The long hallway building of the Dutch era. Still firmly standing to this day, its pillars are sturdy, supporting every corner of the building.
Lapas Kediri city, where currently Djaelani must be willing to enjoy, his days behind bars, with conditions that are still in care, because of the dagger stab wound at that time.
Leaving a wound that is difficult to dry and heal, a week has passed but the wound was reluctant to be covered by the skin.
Walk a warden, and stand in front of that stuffy, airless room.
"Lurah Djaelani...! Wake up...!" The voice will raise the ears of anyone who hears it.
"You get a visit, meet up soon."
"And remember...! cigarette commission don't forget, he..he.he.." the skinny tall warden looks like a blackmailer, every prisoner who is in the garage.
Lurah Djaelani walked gontai, passed through the hallway, and saw the left right of some rooms with minimal air ventilation.
When he reached the corner of the room, a heavy voice greeted Djaelani.
"Ndoro lurah!"
"Suroto..? why did you get here too?"
"I'm a goat ndoro!"
Traangs...
"quickly...! don't stop there. Just buy time." The warden shouted loudly while lashing out at the iron bars beside him.
Back Djaelani stepped foot, towards the meeting room for visitors. Djaelani's footsteps stopped, seeing Harjito with Mahendra already sitting on his long waiting bench.
"Sir Lik. We came to see Mr. Lik." Mahendra greeted, looking closely at Djaelani's eyes. And observing Djaelani's body looks thinner, and his left hand is still held in a long cloth, because of his wound.
"Mr Djaelani.." Harjito extended his hands to shake, then let him sit down.
Mahendra stood up, approached the warden and gave a five-cent break to keep his mouth shut.
The prison warden accepted it, then nodded politely and left the three of them behind.
"Sir Lik, how are you? is the body back healthy? Mahendra asked pleasantries, while correcting the sitting position.
"As you can see, Mr. Lik's wounds have not dried up properly, and the atmosphere here really tortures Hendra." Djaelani began to take out his uneg-uneg.
"Please defer the sentence of Mr. Lik Hendra!" Djaelani.
"It's very heavy, and Mr. Lik is not strong and very sorry." Djaelani's face was down and embarrassed.
Harjito, who was sitting behind Djaelani, shook his head, then stood up and approached Mahendra, who was sitting opposite Djaelani.
"Mr Djaelani, Sundirah lost both his parents, he became a victim of your Greed, then...? Where should he seek justice?" Harjito's voice.
"And I, in the near future will marry Sulastri. But I am nobody."
"Poor youth, without any meaningful possessions, there are no paddy fields and vast fields. Is the master going to kill me? or my parents too?" Harjito was right beyond patience, blurting out a scathing phrase for Djaelani.
"Jito! We're talking good." Mahendra stood up, and guided Jito back to his seat.
"Sir Lik, apologize in advance. Our arrival here, to straighten out the problem of collecting debts between Mr. Lik and Mr. Jupri, is it true Mr. Lik?"
Djaelani leaned back sitting on a long bench.
"Mahendra, Yousra! this is my mistake. I forgot, I was ignited by emotion and ambition. And blinded my mind"
"I'm sorry le.." The cry of Djaelani is heartbreaking, for anyone who sees and hears, as if he is a sickly and persecuted.
"Everything's happened, sir, it's not easy to roll back, and erase all events."
"Mr Jupri, come and collect four bauw fields or rice fields, return policy to sir lik."
Mahendra stopped and stared intently at Djaelani.
"Pay the debt of the four bauw, or Lastri as the avenger of greed Mr. Lik..!"
Silent....
Silent without a sound, the breath was like reluctant to exhale his subtle voice.
"Mahendra, please Mr. Lik, I have nothing. Djaelani again sighed heavily."
"if sulastri, as the payer of my debts. Is Jito gonna take it off?"
"I don't have anything, only Sulastri can help me ." Djaelani's answer made the eyes of the two young men in front of him wide-eyed, they looked at each other.
"Do you want the bloodshed to happen again?, say Mr Lik?" Red instantly extinguished Mahendra's face.
"What is the heart of sir lik...?"
"A beast's savage beast will not sacrifice his son in a fight."
Harjito clenched his hands and..
Braakk....
The big hand was breaking the table. Harjito's anger is already at the top of the crown.
Mahendra whispered to Harjito. "Jito, be patient, I won't take Lastri off either, as hard as I can help you. So! let's get your anger."
"I don't think, what is in his brain den Hendra. what is still lacking? All the noise, he is the main trigger!" Jito is hard to control his anger.
"I've lost both of Sundirah's parents, there's no way I should have lost my loved ones den Hendra."
"Mr Djaelani..! try to think, do not you feel sad will lose the figure that we love i." Harjito walked to the window, and cast his gaze away out, while throwing away disappointment.
"I'm sorry Jito! I have nothing. Then what do I have to do, I pay Jupri?"
"Give us the real answer, sir, is it really the four bauw that must be paid?"
"True Hendra, it's true, Mr. Lik has lost among the chickens, and four bauw fields or rice fields become his bet."
"I beg you all for help, to save Sulastri. And Harjito, get married to Sulastri." Djaelani groans with his hands clutched in front of his chest.
Mahendra sighed heavily, there was no point in talking to Lurah Djaelani.
"Pak lik Djaelani, do not plan, give us a statement, like Mr. Lik, about to run from responsibility, If all will return to the complexity that has occurred, we will raise our hands."
"Alright, sir, we'll stay away, take care of Mr. Lik's health."
Not yet they moved from the room, the emergence of Suprapto, fully dressed while serving as a state servant.
"Good afternoon, Jito, sorry I'm late to see you."
Suprapto greeted, while taking off the hat he was wearing.
"Finely, we sit down first and discuss the problems that we will face today."
"I've got a report from Naris. And I've been getting, all the reports about who Jupri's brother really is."
"So mas Hendra and mas Jito, I beg you to be able to control anger, which can trigger losses on us and have a bad impact later on."
suprapto's speech, a little gives a looseness of the hearts of each who hears right.
"For Mr. Djaelani, there will soon be health spells, will check for dagger puncture wounds, which like his already infected. And according to the health data we received, from the local Bhayangkara hospital."
"Bapak Djaelani was also identified, the sugar level in the blood of the father is too high." Suprapto's words stopped, and saw Djaelani's surprised reaction.
No matter how long they mince words and negotiate something to find the best solution, Mahendra and Harjito say goodbye.
While Djaelani, must undergo his health examination.
