Handsome Fugitive

Blue Ocean

Elmina had just stepped on the last rung of stairs when the father had just entered the main door. Dressed in a police uniform complete with all his attributes, the middle-aged man greeted the youngest princess with a fluffy smile.

"Papa seemed very happy, did he just manage to catch a criminal?" search Elmina who is now in her father's arms.

His face turned to the side, demanding an answer. However, Mr. Sanjaya only smiled faintly. The second step swung compactly towards the family room.

"Eh, papa's home. Where's Prima?" Renita appeared from the kitchen. His head looked wryly looking for the existence of the eldest son who would usually follow the steps of the father if he arrived home.

"He's still at the scene, Ma. There was a case of murder committed against a small child," said Mr. Sanjaya because he took Elmina sitting next to him. Sofa sleep in the family room becomes their contest.

Hearing the news Elmina and Renita compactly screamed as they covered their mouths with palms. The middle-aged woman was sitting next to her husband. Flanked the husband's body, because Elmina was opposite him.

"Is Tegar also with Prima?" ask the middle-aged woman who is now starting to panic.

There have been frequent murders lately. And if calculated the case reaches the number fifteen to twenty in one month.

Of course, as a mother, Renita must have been worried about her son's safety. Apart from Prima being a member of the police, but still, for Renita he is a child who until any time will always be worried about him.

Mr. Sanjaya cleared his throat. Before replying, he removed the Copel that wrapped around his stomach. Slowly he also took off one by one the buttons of the shirt, then handed the uniform into the hands of the wife. There was a police shirt on his body.

"Actually Tegar who handled the case, Prima just accompanied," replied Mr. Sanjaya after some jokes made Elmina and Renita wait.

The middle-aged man grabbed the television remote, then turned it on. On the 42-inch widescreen it features a weekend event.

Mr. Sanjaya and Elmina focus on the television, while Renita gets up from the contest, then heads to the room to store the husband's uniform into the closet.

"When are you coming home from the top, El?" Mr. Sanjaya turned his attention to the princess.

Elmina who was asked now blinked.

"Last day, Pa." The girl replied with a gaze that kept on the television.

"Isn't your vacation long?" Mr. Sanjaya kept asking. Both his eyebrows looked cluttered. The tail of his eyes glanced thinly at the youngest princess.

Elmina blinked, then looked at her father.

"Too long in the villa bore me, Pa." The girl replied with an annoyed facial expression.

Mr. Sanjaya looked frown. Wasn't it before leaving for the top of his daughter that it seemed very enthusiastic to go on vacation? Why was his expression inversely proportional now?

"Last-minute news ...." Voice of the News Bearer on television.

Elmina and Mr. Sanjaya were compactly staring at the white screen.

"The Blue Ocean, the only diamond necklace in the world, and is a famous icon in our country has been stolen from the historic Museum by a young man with the initials B," continued The Bearer of News.

Elmina looked gaping, while Mr. Sanjaya looked ordinary. Of course, he already knew in advance about the news.

"The police are still looking for the whereabouts of the young man who is currently lost to the earth" the News Bearer reported, displaying an image of the thief's face.

The television screen showed a picture of Bari wearing a Hoodie jacket, wearing a hat, and the pose was walking while looking to the left. Her face was not very visible, but her pointed chin and fine hair filled her jaw, making Elmina able to recognize the young man validly.

Elmina didn't blink at all. His mouth was open as if he was watching an amazing show.

"For anyone who sees this face, please report to the local police," said the Bearer of the News and closed the event.

To some jokes Elmina looked unmoved. Mr. Sanjaya did not make any sound at all. Both are busy with their own minds.

"Pa-" Elmina's voice choked, as her father slashed her sentence.

"Did you see that young man often?"

Since then, Mr. Sanjaya did steal a look at his daughter. He was sure that the girl would definitely say something after the news was read out. Moreover, he had heard from Prima that Elmina knew the young man whose face had just been plastered in the media earlier.

The girl stuttered immediately. He hesitated to speak. His mind was still weighing; should he tell the father? Or is it better to pretend not to know the young man?

"Ah, i-"

"She's very dangerous, you better call me right away if you see her" Mr. Sanjaya cut off as Elmina would answer questions.

Ah, papa and brother are the same, his mind while frowning spoiled.

Somehow, why Elmina felt that the accusations inflicted on Bari were just an accusation. He wanted to say that, but his father had speculated.

"Not been caught yet, Pa?" Renita suddenly came out of the room, then slashed the conversation of the father and son.

"Not yet" answered Mr. Sanjaya briefly.

"Papa should eat first" said the middle-aged woman. His steps immediately swung towards the dining room. As usual, Mr. Sanjaya will have lunch at home, although the return hour is definitely late afternoon.

Mr. Sanjaya nodded, then followed the woman's movements. While Elmina was still staring in front of the television with all the thoughts that were again filled with the shadow of Bari.

***

At the biggest fast food restaurant in the city. Bari had chosen one of the tables, then pulled out his chair. Slowly he sat there comfortably, having placed his order on the table. A big burger complete with fresh vegetables, coupled with abundant sauces and mayonnaise and a glass of his favorite Coca cola looks tantalizing in plain sight.

This time the young man's appearance looked different than usual. Her hair is rather curly and long. Denim shirts and black fabric pants are her outfit choice. Not forgetting the end of his shirt put in his pants, like the brothers gallon builders. There is an additional one more accessory that makes the appearance more disguised, clear glasses with thick round lenses.

While glancing left and right, he began to enjoy his order. One bite with a fairly greedy eating style, making some visitors stare uneasily at him.

"Ehem .. ahem!"

On the sidelines of the curdling ritual of his hull, suddenly a nearly middle-aged man, wearing black jeans and a jacket, stood up while beating next to his desk.

Bari. One large bite seemed to clot his gaping mouth.

"Mrs. B?" asked the man while sitting in front of Bari. His gaze was straight towards the young man who now did not seem to be a crack at all.

How could?
