For You Little Girl's

CHAPTER 32 MUTUALISM

A drop of tears trickled down his cheek. The shadow of the incident when Ray was ten years old began to spin back in his mind. Little Ray who just wanted to take the father, but had to end up coming home in a state that was so heartbreaking.

Ray was silent to Raka's words that were so worried about him. His heart warmed, as there were still people who cared so much about him. He stared at the face of the friend who had shed tears, then hugged the friend to suppress the anger that had greeted him.

Raka returned a hug from Ray while patting Ray on the back to strengthen and calm the friend who was being hit by anxiety. After hugging Ray, she sees the pale face of someone who means so much in her best friend's life.

You should wake up soon.

Under the bright moonlight in the night sky, they strengthened each other. Have the same hope in order to immediately find common ground. Both eyes also turned sharp with a cynical smile on their lips – each.

“Pa, Ray will help papa to escape the shackles that bind papa without papa knowing. Rest, Pa”, Ray said as he stroked the face of the papa who already had a few wrinkles.

Not long after, the two of them immediately left the room where Mr. Badir was treated. Passing to a place to meet someone. The car that took them, drove very fast on the streets that began to be empty. Every now and then, the – man looks sigh while suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

Arriving at the intended place, Ray immediately got out of the car with Raka who could only exhale while shaking her head. “You never change, Ray”, so muttered Raka who also came out of the car.

The light rays entered Ray's vision that had just arrived inside the room. His eyes were seen scouring all over while looking for the whereabouts of someone who had previously promised to meet. His man has managed to find someone who has helped the girl he likes.

A person's footsteps could be heard approaching in the direction where Ray was. He sharpened his hearing to know the direction of the arrival of someone who was getting closer. Samar – faintly under the dim light of the lamp in the room, appeared a person with a mask covering part of his face. Walk while looking at Ray.

Leaving only a few steps between the two, Ray is seen beginning to judge someone who is already before him. Looking from the tip of the foot to the tip of the hair that is in the body of the masked man –. He tried to see the shape of the eye hidden behind the mask, but it was his failure.

“To the point”, Rauf who is a masked man – immediately open his voice when he saw his interlocutor just pay attention to him.

Ray gasped and immediately stared intently which made Rauf smile on his side. He walked towards a sofa that was there and dropped himself with Ray still staring at him sharply.

“Where is Sara? I know, if you brought it that day”, said Ray who also sat on the sofa, right in front of Rauf.

As for Raka, she chose to pay attention to the two from a distance. So is Ghaly who is still in another corner with a lack of light, so Ray and Raka are unaware of his presence.

“What right do you know about him”, said Rauf with a flat face that began to decorate his face hidden behind a mask.

Ray who heard the words from Rauf clenched his hands together. He stared at Rauf as if he was about to skin him alive – alive. With full decisiveness, Ray spoke by emphasizing every word – he said. “Because Sara is my girl. So, give him back now. I can also protect her”.

Rauf chuckled as he looked at Ray with a soft look. The corner of his lips was slightly interested, but no one was aware of it. Your girl?

“Sara is my responsibility. He'll be safe under my protection. So, if your goal is just to bring it, you better leave this place”.

Ray, who heard Rauf's words, couldn't help but laugh. A thin grin began to adorn his lips. “Hahaha, you think I'll let him be with you? Don't be naive, it could be that you are the –-eye eyes sent by the old man who started smelling the land”.

Deg

Old man smelling of soil? Could it be that Ray knew who was behind all this?

Rauf looked at Ray with a gaze that was difficult to define. His hands raised upwards formed a wave meaning that made Ghaly who was in the corner of darkness immediately walk towards Rauf. Ray looked at Ghaly with a watchful gaze and tried to guess the face behind the cloth that partially covered Ghaly's face.

Immediately, Ghaly gave a file to Ray who frowned. He looked towards Rauf and Ghaly with a gaze asking for an explanation. However, Rauf only smiled obliquely without intending to explain.

Ray's hand immediately grabbed the file that was in a brown map. A paper he took and began to read the writing contained in the paper. For a moment, his eyes narrowed and turned to look at Rauf.

“Cooperation?”, Ray asked by re-reading the contents of the file.

“Aren't we having the same goal? So why not just have a profitable relationship? You are the son of someone who has caused many people to lose their lives and their homes. If I don't guess wrong, you want your father to be detached from that someone, then we are the right partner”.

Ray is silent with Raka who starts walking towards Ray and sits next to Ray. With high curiosity, Raka asked Rauf. “Who are you and why should we work with people like you?”

“Who we are, of course you should be able to digest yourself. And remember, our goal is the same: peace. Settlement to the incident a dozen years ago”, Ghaly was the one who answered the question posed by Raka.

“Then what about Sara?”, Ray voiced, because his desire to find Sara was not harried.

Rauf stood up from his seat. Staring sharply at Ray that Ray could not see. Then Rauf spoke with conviction. “As you said before, Sara is also my girl. So, I won't let anyone touch her even hurt her. I'm perfectly capable of protecting her”.

Ray's jaw is hardened. He also got up from his seat and was about to beat Rauf who was immediately detained by Raka. “Relax, Ray”, whispered Raka.

Ghaly also raised his voice to see the debate between the two that began to heat up because of a girl who was none other than me. Those who are not who – who I am, lightly acknowledge the right of ownership over me.

Very funny to me.

“Sara's problem, I know it's a matter of feeling. Personal problems should not be involved in a serious matter. Since we have the same goal, you should both get rid of your ego and your desires. Walking in a direction will also further improve the safety of Sara until when the peak of the problem begins, Sara will end this all”, said Ghaly who was approved by Raka.

“Relationship of mutualism, that's what's more important. After all, you two can equally protect the girl in your own way”, Raka said.

Rauf and Ray were silent. The two of them drifted into their own minds and a few minutes later, a deal struck. Cooperation between two people who do not know each other began to run in the same direction. Although Rauf knew his partner, he was not close to Ray during his time at school. Moreover, he was wearing a mask, so that Ray would not recognize him.
