It was getting late in the afternoon, finally the long-awaited came as well. Radit came home from the office according to his working hours. Then they set off to take Grandpa Rinto and Bu Tari back to his house. Such a long journey put the passengers into deep sleep. Now only Radit as a driver and Grandpa Rinto as a guide who is still awake.
"Is it still far away, Cake?" Radit repeatedly asked the route he still had to go.
"Still Mas, we still have to go through one more forest. But the roads are not all paved either. Due to the location away from the city, making the development in this village far lagging behind other villages." Grandpa Rinto's old strength actually exceeds the strength of people who are much younger than him. Grandpa Rinto has eaten too much salt acid, so his strength both physical and spiritual has been well tested.
Radit was getting tired, he felt overwhelmed by the road he was walking. Heavy routes and roads make the journey longer. Roads that are hollow make the car can not walk quickly. Fortunately it is not the rainy season, if it rains maybe this road will turn into a puddle and mud.
"Of course, the car is parked here. I'll ask permission from the man who owns the house." After the car stopped, Grandpa Rinto immediately went down to ask permission to the owner of the house to park Radit's car in his yard.
"By Mas Radit, Mas Radit can park Mas Radit's car in front of this house. I've got permission from Mr. Rt who owns this house." Grandpa Rinto came with a breath that was starting to cringe
"Where is Grandpa's house?" Aishah who had been awakened from earlier because of the steep road was getting curious.
"Soak through this rice field area Mbak, so if the car can't get in until the front of the house." Rinto's grandfather pointed at the small path in the vast rice field. The atmosphere was quiet and dark, there were only a few street lighting lamps deliberately made by residents.
Then after parking the car, they walked down the rice fields to go to Grandpa Rinto and Bu Tari's house. Throughout the journey Radit was ceaselessly astonished. How could they live in such a situation. Then after arriving at Grandpa Rinto's house, Radit increasingly felt concerned about the state of the house which is more appropriately called the bamboo hut.
Grandpa Rinto's house is made of rickety wicker bamboo. There are a lot of holes between the bamboo walls. The state of the house is really concerning, Radit thought. The size of the house is not too big. There is only a living room, kitchen and two bedrooms. And everything is limited by makeshift curtains. All night Radit couldn't close his eyes. Radit has been used to living luxuriously since he was a child.
How could they live in such a distant place on a road like this. Moreover, it must pass through a large rice field area on nights like this.
Unlike Aishah who is used to his simple life. Aishah can survive wherever he is. Even when it comes to sleeping on a cold floor with just a mat, Aishah never complains. Instead Aishah felt grateful because his life now is still better than the lives of disadvantaged people such as Grandpa Rinto and Bu Tari.
On this dark night, Radit sat in the bright moonlight. He saw the expanse of rice fields in front of him that were exposed to the moonlight. Late in the morning, Radit decided not to lay down his body. Because even if he tried hard to sleep would be useless. He realized that his life had been more than enough. All this time what he complained and he was not grateful turned out to be many people who were much more miserable than his life.
Seeing Grandpa Rinto's apprehensive state, Aishah decides to help build Grandpa Rinto's house. Aishah gave a lot of money and groceries to Grandpa Rinto's family. After the morning, Mr. Banu shouted in pain. Everyone was surprised by him. Radit and Grandpa Rinto who were chatting in front of the house immediately approached Pak Banu, as well as Aishah and Bu Tari who were cooking in the kitchen.
"Dad why?" Radit arrived first among the others. It looks like Mr. Banu is in pain. Mr. Banu was unceasingly holding his head. Seeing his father in more pain, Radit approached.
"Radith? Where am I? Why are we here?" Mr. Banu seemed to be trying to remember what was happening to him.
"We're at Grandpa Rinto Yah's house." Radit looked towards Grandpa Rinto.
"Bella, Bella's been so mean. I have to put him in jail. I need to report it to the police right now." Mr. Banu suddenly said a shocking thing.
"So you remember Bella?" Radit scrunched his forehead.
"Bella made Dad like this." Mr. Banu looked all over his scarred body.
"What has Bella done?" Radit continued to urge Mr. Banu to continue to tell stories about the crimes committed by Bella.
"Then we have to report it to the police immediately." Radit was getting excited, because this is what he had been waiting for, namely revenge with Bella.
Finally Radit, Aishah and Pak Banu immediately returned to the city. They immediately head to the police station to report Bella's crime. The drowsiness that Radit felt because he could not sleep last night was immediately gone. Radit was very enthusiastic about the case. Radit hopes Bella can be punished severely.
"Good day sir." Radit approached a police desk nearby.
"Good day please sit down, can we help you?" The policeman who was busy typing something on his computer looked at Radit and pointed at the chair in front of him so Radit could sit there.
Then Mr. Banu recounted the incident he had experienced. Mr. Banu told me in detail all the crimes that Bella had committed to him and his family. The police then processed Mr. Banu's report.
"We'll catch Bella's mother soon. Father don't worry. But we beg for cooperation." The police said firmly.
Finally they went straight to Bella's house. At that time only Mbok Minah was at home.
"Good afternoon ma'am, we're with the police. Can we meet Bella's mother?" One of the police said firmly.
"Sorry sir, the Bell is out of the house." Mbok Minah looks scared.
How surprised Mbok Minah when she saw Mr. Banu, Radit and Aishah coming with five police officers.
"Mr Banu, Mas Radit and Mbak Aishah." Mbok Minah who now looks thin and old can still recognize her former employer well.
After allowing Radit, Aishah, Pak Banu and the police to enter, Mbok Minah and Pak To tell all the crimes that Bella has done so far. About the crime of Bella five years ago, which has made Mr. Banu unconscious and took him away until the news circulated that Mr. Banu went into the ravine. Now complete is evidence of the crime that Bella has committed. With all the evidence gathered, Bella can be severely punished according to the crimes she has committed. So that the police will immediately arrest Bella if she meets him.
Not long after, the sound of Bella's car came home. The police immediately approached Bella who had just arrived. The police forcefully opened the car that Bella and her secretary were driving. However, Bella quickly escapes. Only his secretary managed to secure the police. Then there was a pretty exhausting chase. Bella is very good at escaping. The crowded conditions overwhelmed the police to pursue Bella.
Finally, overwhelmed by Bella's evasion, one of the policemen fired one shot.
Dor…. The sound of gunshots makes everyone who hears it. One shot landed on Bella's calf. Bella screams in pain. However, he only paused for a moment then got back up to try to keep running. By continuing to drag her bloodied legs, Bella tried to keep evading the police. Bella really doesn't want to give up.
When Bella was about to cross the road, suddenly came the truck from the side with high speed. Bella who walked by stumbling with her feet holding her back could not dodge anymore.
Bruks…. And it was an accident. Bella was hit by a large truck that passed by. The police who are after Bella immediately come to see the state of Bella. Bella was already lying in the middle of the street with her head full of blood. The police immediately took Bella to a nearby hospital. However, Bella's life could not be helped anymore. Bella died on the way to the hospital.
Only his secretary was put in jail. And all the property that Bella had fell back into the hands of Mr. Banu and Radit. How satisfied Radit was with all this. Radit is very happy because his revenge so far can be avenged with worth. It was finally resolved that night. Just to take care of the transfer of Bella's property into the hands of Mr. Banu back.
Then Radit, Mr. Banu and Aishah could return home quietly. They feel very relieved, because the case can be resolved quickly. And now the memory of Mr. Banu has returned to normal. Mr. Banu can remember everything well.
