Father of My Son

Evil Liar

A boy hummed cheerfully, he jumped up a little without releasing the grip of his hand from a teenager, who was holding Adam's tiny hand.

The other hand of the twelve-year-old boy, carrying a basket filled with fried foods that are still warm.

Both walk towards a factory construction project, Rafa usually peddle fried food there. The frying made by the mother.

"Adam don't jump around, you're tired" complained Rafa.

"And Adam jumped, why was Rafa tired" replied Adam relaxed.

Rafa could only sigh at Adam's reply. Once they get to the project, it's just right when the workers take a break for lunch. Rafa also approached the workers who were ngaso, to offer fried food that he brought.

"Fry sir," said Rafa offered to a group of people who were sitting on the ground, some using the wood stacked as a seat.

"What's up?" ask a middle-aged man wearing a yellow shirt whose color has faded.

"Greens master, tempeh, know the same content of bananas," replied Rafa straightforwardly.

"May, 3000," the man replied.

"I'm 2000, Fa. Know what it is."

"I'm interfering 5000, the cab is profuse," said another.

Rafa smiled widely while nodding excitedly.

"Adam sit down, Rafa wants to serve the buyer" he told Adam.

Adam nodded obediently, he crouched down beside Rafa. Rafa opened the basket he was carrying. With deftly he began to stamp one by one fried into the plastic according to the order of the buyer, people began to come to Rafa and buy his fritters. Adam who was bored, secretly left Rafa who was busy with buyers.

The little boy left unbeknownst to Rafa, at the age of now Adam is actively exploring what is around him. Although this is not the first time he joined Rafa selling on the project, but Adam always likes to explore.

An orange-colored cat caught Adam's attention, the cat sat on a pile of cement sacks while busy licking his body.

"Hey cat, play with me yuk," Adam asked with his sparkling eyes. Adam was very fond of the furry animal, unfortunately the owner of the contract where he and his mother lived, not allowed to keep pets.

The cat stopped licking, he stared at Adam lazily. Nimble, the cat jumped then ran away. Maybe he was disturbed by Adam, not staying silent Adam also ran after him.

A black luxury car is darting fast carrying an important person inside, a man who has the power to do whatever he wants. The man sat so quietly and arrogantly, he examined carefully each report sheet in his hand.

"The speed of the construction of the factory, I want the place to be completed in two months" he said, closing the map in his hands.

"Okay sir" replied the judge briefly.

The car they were riding finally arrived at the project, with the driver swiftly deflecting the car into the open gate. A security guard nodded respectfully welcoming their arrival.

The cat being chased by Adam stopped right in the middle of the dirt road, seeing that Adam smirked a little. No matter the scorching heat, and his dirty body due to several times fell while chasing the cat.

"Hehehe.. Where are you going." Adam walked around and approached the cat, baby. When Adam got close and jumped to catch, the stray cat ran. Adam fell down.

"The naughty cat, played with even run away again," he said annoyed. Adam slowly stood his hand hot as it rubbed against the ground, his knees bleeding, but Adam did not cry.

He tried to step in to look for the stray cat again, albeit with a limped step. When a car drove towards him at a high enough speed, Adam could not run away because of the wound on his leg.

Braaks...

Collision avoided, the car did not stop in time.Tiny body Adam bounced, rolled several times on the ground until finally hit a pile of wood. Fresh blood flowed from his body.

"Adam!" rafa shouted, he threw the basket he was carrying.The little man ran over to the tiny body of Adam who was lying on the ground.

"What's going on?!" ask Aric.

"Answer! Why are you quiet?" ask the judge annoyed.

"A..Anu ...Sir, I accidentally bumped into a small child," the driver replied stuttering in fear.

"What's? Child?!" The judge glared in surprise, in a place like this there should be no small children.

The driver nodded. His throat choked like he was suffocating, he looked down in fear.

"Kim, get it done, quickly" said Aric.

"Good sir."

"You! come down with me" said the judge, opening the car door, the driver nodded and quickly followed the judge's steps.

Some work had already swarmed the victims, one of them lifting the tiny blood-stained body.

"Adam ...Adam ...!" Rafa continued to call out the name of the little boy.

The judge stepped quickly through the crowd, his eyes wide at the condition of the little boy. The judge swerved sharply at the driver standing beside him. The driver could only duck him, terrified.

"Who's this kid, why is he here?" ask Judge.

"He ... My sister sir, she joined me in selling fried food," replied Rafa with a hiccup.

The judge threw a glance at the project employees. They nodded in agreement to Rafa's words.

"Call the ambulance, and you're coming with me!" The judge pulled Rafa's hand.

A worker who was holding Adam's body, looked at his friends. He felt unbearable if he had to let Adam wait for the arrival of an ambulance, with his condition that had lost a lot of blood.

"Master, can you take him to the hospital, I'm afraid he can't stay" he said timidly. He knew that the person in front of him was an important person.

The judge was silent for a moment, right what the worker said was true.

"You, carry him. Get to the hospital now" the judge told the driver.

"Ba ...Good Mr." The driver picked up the pale-looking Adam from the hand of the workman who was carrying him.

He then followed the steps of the Judge, who had first walked towards the car while pulling Rafa's hand.

Aric was waiting outside the car, with

the back he was resting on in the car.

"Sir, we need to get this kid to the hospital. The wound is quite severe" the judge reported. Although the Judge knew Aric did not like this troublesome thing, it was a very emergency.

Reluctantly Aric saw the boy in the driver's arms, he was quite surprised to see the boy's face. However, in an instant his face was back flat.

"Hem, why are you still standing fast in."

The judge was surprised, and thought the master would refuse to take Adam in their car.

"Why remain silent? Come on in," said Aric. The judge immediately got into the car, he sat at the wheel of the car waiting for the driver.

Rafa sits in front with the Judge, while the driver sits in the back with Aric. Rafa continued to cry, frightened to see Adam's blood-soaked body. The judge started driving his car away from the project, towards a nearby hospital.

"Hey, what's your name? and who's this little boy?" asked Aric suddenly.

"Sa... I'm Rafa, he's Adam's Aunt Lily's son" Rafa replied with a hoarse voice, trying to shrink his tears.

"He's not your brother?"

Rafa shook his head quickly. The judge was shocked in his heart, Aric who usually did not care about other people's affairs, why was suddenly interested in the boy they accidentally hit. Even his gaze could not be separated from the child.

"Tante Lily worked, so Adam was entrusted to my mother" replied Rafa, Aric nodding in understanding.

Before long they finally arrived at a private hospital in the village, Adam was immediately taken to the ER to get treatment.

Meanwhile, Rafa is in between to Adam's mother's workplace to tell her what happened to her son.
