Forcing Restu

Chapter 6

"Has not yet, Yang?" Rio again called Rani who was not finished dressing up.

"Eh. Yes, Mum." Rani immediately left the mirror in front of the bathroom sink.

"Yuk, down! Make sure nothing is left out, yes. We're directly CO." Said Rio reminding.

"But, Mas. The bedspread? Still that?" Rani pointed at the messy white bedsheet with blood spots on it.

"Udah, justin! It will be cleaned up with the hotel clerk." Rio replied casually.

"Oh, okay." Rani according to him.

They both left the room that was still a mess. Then get down to return the room key, also pay the rate.

"Well, let's have breakfast!" Take Rio to Rani, he took Rani's hand to the parking lot below.

"Loh, Mum? How to get to the parking lot? He said he'd eat?" Ask Rani wonder.

"Yes, we have breakfast outside. It's expensive." Rio replied casually.

Rani. He thought they were both going to have breakfast at the hotel, where they had dinner last night. It turns out the estimate was wrong. But how else? He could only follow Rio. They both left the hotel and had breakfast chicken porridge near the square, which is not far from the hotel.

After finishing breakfast, just like his promise earlier, Rio drove Rani home. When they arrived at Rani's house, they were both awaited by Mama and Mas Fajar, Rani's brother.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Ma." Said Rani while trying to greet her mother. Instead of getting a good reception, it was the scolding that Rio and Rani had gotten.

"Where are you from? Why just come home? He said go with your friends? Why did he come home with her?" Mama Laras strafed Rani with questions. His hand was pointing towards Rio, with an unhappy face.

"Sorry, Ma. Rani lied." Reply Rani lirih. While Rio was still far behind Rani. He did not dare to approach towards Mama Laras.

"Oh, so you lied to Mama? You went with him, huh? Why are you the same as him? Until not coming home? Don't tell me you've done such a disgusting thing!" Laras immediately thought negatively of Rani and Rio, who actually deserved such negative thoughts.

"Pantes from your HP semalem is not active. You turned it off on purpose, didn't you? Let's not trace him again?" The dawn added.

"Huh? My HP isn't active?" Rani is confused by her brother's accusations. Because he didn't feel like deactivating his HP.

"Yes! You know what, you're making us both worry?!" Dawn still nagged Rani.

Rani immediately retrieved the HP from inside her bag. Indeed from this morning, he did not look at his HP. He remembers seeing HP last time in the hotel parking lot last night. And it turned out to be true, his HP was already in a dead state.

"Sorry, Mas. I didn't know my HP was dead." Rani apologized again.

"Oh, that's it! It's so exciting for you two, to not know that his HP is dead." Dawn smiled obliquely.

"It's not that, Mom. But...." Rani remembers what happened last night. Though vague, but he could still remember it.

"But what, Ran? What the hell are you two really doing? Where did you sleep last night? Don't really know what Mama said earlier. Did you do that disgusting thing, huh?" Dawn increases his tone.

"I'm sorry Rani, Mas. Ma's. Sorry Rani!" Just then as Rani's tears were dripping down, she really felt guilty. Rani knelt before her mother, trying to beg her mother for forgiveness.

"Why are you sorry? So is Mama's guess right? You two did what you felt you deserved?" The barrel back ensures.

"Bad!"

Saying Dawn directly on the apoplexy. He clenched his hands, and walked quickly towards Rio who was still standing near his motorbike. When he arrived before Rio, without waiting for the cue, Fajar threw his fist at Rio's face.

Buk up!

Buk up!

Twice Dawn hit Rio, without a fight.

"Mas! No!" Rani shouted, she ran over to Rio who was already holding on to his motorbike, while the other hand held the cheek that was hit by a bogem from Dawn.

Hearing Rani defend Rio, it makes Fajar even more angry. He intended to hit Rio again, but was already blocked by Rani.

"Hit me, Mom! Hit me! I was wrong, Mom! Not Rio Mas!" Rani tries to defend Rio who is behind her, hoping Fajar will stop hitting her.

But Rani's guess is wrong.

Plaque!

Rani gets a hard slap from Dawn.

"You two are the same!" Say Dawn before leaving the yard. Leaving Rani grimacing in pain, enduring the slap from Dawn. Her tears are flowing more. He could only squat, enduring the multiplied pain.

"Darling! You're not papa?" Rio tried to invite Rani to stand up again.

There was no response from Rani. Obviously he's not okay. What he was afraid of this morning really happened. His brother was furious. Her mother was also disappointed. Rani was crying again. But unexpectedly, Laras approached the youngest child.

"Mama?" Rani raised her head. Waiting for what his mother will say after this.

"You two, get inside now!" Laras gave the order to Rani as well as Rio, then turned around and entered the house first.

"Ran's? I'm not wrong, am I? Your mom is not wrong? He gave me permission to enter your house?" Rio was astonished by the orders from Mama Laras.

"Yes, Mas. You're not wrong."

"Yaudah, let's go in!"

Rani nodded. He stood up, then wiped his tears that were still wetting his cheeks. He took a deep breath several times. After feeling calmer, Rani and Rio together went inside Rani's house.

Arriving in the living room, Mama Laras and Fajar were already sitting in the living room chair with his hands in front of his chest, waiting for Rani and Rio who continued walking while looking down.

"You two, sit down!" Laras again gave orders to Rani and Rio. They both comply. They sat in chairs opposite the one occupied by Mama Laras and also Dawn, separated by a small table in the living room.

Rani and Rio did not dare to speak at all. They just kept quiet, waiting for what Mama Laras would say. Rani set her breath, preparing to receive anger from her mother again. He thought that his mother would scold him all out this time. If outside earlier, maybe his mother can still hold back, for fear of being heard by neighbors. But now? Mama Laras could vent her anger at will.
