Happy Birthday's

Chapter 17's

For the first time I was lazy to go to school just because of one person that I currently did not want to see for a while. I was on the school rooftop alone with the bell coming home that rang a few minutes ago with great difficulty avoiding Alvin because of this erratic feeling. I decided to seek my own answers about this trauma that I had.

I try to remember my 4th birthday. A glimpse of the puzzle pieces that are still not neatly arranged. I remember where I was celebrating my birthday at the pool that was in my house first. At that time my family's economy was quite good and since my father died his company went bankrupt due to the actions of aunty and omku who fought for the leadership of the company. To remember it more I had to go to the house again and see the pool that I currently know the house has been occupied by Sita.

I thought of a way to enter the house, where Sita had to be outside anyway because if Sita was inside the house then I would not be allowed to enter. Sita's still cold to me even though I don't know what the problem is.

I came up with an idea but I couldn't do it on my own so I called Zio for help.

'Hallo Sya, where are you anyway?' the answer was not long after the phone ringing went off a second time.

'Where's zio?' askaku.

'*Ck even turned it back'

'Lu's still at school?'

'Still'

'Where?'

'Parkirants'

'If I go there now*'

I came down from the rooftop and walked through the stairs and corridors of the school which were now filled only by people who were doing exculpation in the school. I saw Jimin who was gathered in the sausage room, male students who were having a basketball experience, and several other people who were busy with their respective activities.

I saw Zio playing his phone by leaning against the wall next to his bike.

"Where are you going?" Zio instantly closed his phone as soon as he became aware of my arrival.

"There is" I replied.

"Rase?" call someone behind me.

"..." I didn't answer him and just watched him step closer to me. That person is Alvin.

As far as I ran as smart as I hid I finally met him and it shouldn't look like I was avoiding him.

"Where is it?" tanyakanya.

"Ah I have many tasks" I replied.

"What duty?"

"Yes a lot."

"That person said there was no duty" he said pointing at Zio with his chin.

"Ziokan the guy is lazy where maybe he thinks about the task" I answered looking for the right reason and it looks reasonable.

I saw Zio afraid he was angry. I know whatever Zio is, Zio, he will not leave any assignments because he was in the 10th grade he hardly went to class because he often skipped and now if he does not do the work from school then he was forced to have to change schools if you don't want to stay in class.

"Ohh" Alvin nodded his head.

"Where are you going now?"

"Gue wants to continue the mission."

"I'm coming with ya."

"Don't let me be with Zio."

"Why?"

"Yes because you won't help."

"Judah if you'll be"

"Yes" I replied cutting Alvin off.

"Yuk Zio."

I got on Zio's bike and left Alvin I saw still looking at me and Zio who were already far away from him.

Feeling guilty seeing it like that but how else. I still haven't accepted this reality.

I explained to Zio what I planned and when we got near Sita's house, he called Sita to invite her to meet if Sita was in the house and if it was not there then Zio and I would enter the house because of the house assistant who was at the house of Sita he knows us and will let us in.

"We're not home" Zio closed the phone. However, to make sure it was true that there was nothing with Zio entering the house first and I waited for him near Sita's house to hide a little.

And it was true that Sita was not there after Zio entered and asked the waiter there. I entered Sita's house that looks luxurious even though it is not as luxurious as Alvin's house with Zio who is served by the service there.

"Why haven't you been here for a long time?" tanya bi Ria who is a household assistant.

"Yes bi, Is it still a long time?" ask me to be more sure after entering the house.

"How long will you wait?" ask again.

"Wait a minute" I replied.

"What a bi" I replied and Zio just looked around.

Because bi Ria already knows and believes in us making us easy to enter Sita's house.

After bi Ria had started to be invisible. I was with Zio entering the backyard that had a swimming pool. Although the place has changed a lot, I still imagine the pool that used to be.

I try to remember some of the events of that time.

"I had my birthday here at the time" I pointed to the places that were oppressed in my baby even though the position and place were now much different

"The temple is in this" pointed me out.

"People come from here, and some tables for food"

"There is a small stage there" I pointed to the flower garden around the pond.

"Gue saw all the children laughing cheerfully together"

"Ah I see a boy who is silent by himself here"

"I was samperin and he looked really upset"

"Continue?" ask Zio who is now starting to be curious.

"Gue came again and brought the cake to the boy, but there was a boy who suddenly ran towards us and pushed us down into the pool and finally drowned"

"Wait for me to remember something" said Zio who listened to me.

"Huh?"

"I'm that boy"

"I mean you?"

"This suddenness reminds me of after you showed me some position at that time and imagined in my memory as if I was there too."

"..."

"It's not the boy you mean to push you. The point is it's not me who pushed you'

"Continue?" manya curious.

"Maybe you don't remember because I was 4 years old and I was 5 years old"

It's true that I was one year different from Sita and Zio because I went to elementary school at 6 years old while Nazwa was 1 month different from Nazwa who was born earlier than me.

"Gue saw you holding the cake and at the same time I saw the child you said was alone that pushed you when I ran to help you" he explained again.

"But then you saw the kid's intention and tried to help me but in the end you were accused because right at the time you came the boy was fuming in panic" I guess.

"Just exactly Rasya. I got punished for it"

"We have to find the girl"

We returned to the living room with a goodbye to bi Ria.

"Kaya Sita is still a long time ya bi. Then Rasya said yes"

"In fact, not on the phone first is non Sitanya karunya or have been waiting for a long time" said bi Ria where the regional language outside. Indeed bi Ria comes from Tasikmalaya where people use Sundanese language.

"Iya bi forgot Rasya thought Sita would not be long" I replied a little complaining to look natural.

"Judah or non-careful"

"Yes, thank you"

Reveal me while walking outside.

"Eleuh siah aunty hilap teu ngih drink non" said bi Rian patted her forehead.

"Gakpapa bi relax" replied Zio.

"I'm sorry"

"Yes bi" I replied.

and we went from there for fear that Sita would come home soon.

Zio stopped his motorbike on the side of the highway waiting for me to call my mother asking the boy who was drowning with me. After hearing the answer from our mother a little confused because she forgot her name and address she only knew the name of her mother and father as well as the company that her family owned.

We finally decided to go to the change looking for clues because the distance of the company is not so far away. After until we can not just go inside because it is maintained tightly by security. I know the company is quite strict security anyone who enters will be checked his identity first both employees and guests.

We just fell silent on the street looking from afar and I was surprised that a teenage girl holding a man who was about 50 years old was walking out of the company building.

"Fara?" I said reflex when I saw that.
