...****************...
A stolen car driven by Rein enters the suburban area. Many slums are standing haphazardly there. Rein walked into an alley on his right side was a river. Rein's heart slightly scratched at the flow of water that looks calm, but can actually wash away. The accident he had experienced last time still left a deep trauma. Now, he was afraid to see the river flow.
Rein arrived at a house that had a large courtyard in front of him. The house was slightly covered by a high barrier surrounding it. There is a shop in the front of the house.
Rein parked his car in the front yard of the workshop, then immediately came out when he saw the figure of a man standing inside the workshop while leaving his waist. The man stared at the arrival of the unfamiliar car with a wary look. Rein smiled happily, even his tears had been dammed so much to him. He cried happily to see his best friend who was still in shape after the accident, because Rein thought his best friend was dead.
"Daren!" rein shouted after getting out of the car in a hurry. He forgot to close the car door.
"Cow," muttered Daren as he lowered his hand from the waist.
Rein immediately ran over and hugged Daren's body.
Daren was as surprised as Rein. "Lo's still alive? I'm not dreaming anymore, am I?" Daren asked as she stroked Rein's embrace. Looking at Rein with a surprised look.
"Oh, sick!" Daren complained of getting a hard blow on his arm by Rein.
"Well, that's your pain. It means you are not dreaming. I'm alive, and I'm glad you're alive too" Rein continued. He hugged his best friend again. The two hugged each other to resolve the longing that had greeted. Rein already considers Daren like his brother, and vice versa. Daren and Rein once agreed that there should be no love between them. Because if their love is not reciprocated, the fate of their friendship will surely be unlucky.
"Gue is also your seneng still alive, Sap. But Marvel ...."
The face that had been shining instantly dimmed instantly. Marvel's death makes Daren lose one of his limbs.
"Gue was also sad when Miss Wanda said that." Rein looked sad. Her tears could not be stopped anymore.
"Have you been to the parlor?" tanya Daren shifted the sadness that surrounded the atmosphere there.
Rein looked up then nodded his head. "Udah" he answered. "Gue would like to say thank you too, because you've replaced me take care of them when I'm not around," Rein said as he developed a smile, although the remaining tears still wet his smooth cheeks.
"Not to say thank you, I'm also part of the parlour. Since childhood I have been an orphan, and Ms. Wanda always welcome me to come there. It is my job to help them too. Especially when the milk cow does not exist," said Daren with a small laugh meredek Rein. Not without reason Daren always called Rein the "Cow".
In addition to the long name Rein who approached the name, Daren always equated Rein with a dairy cow who never tired of making a living. Rein aspires to buy a house for the orphanage family, because the house they now live in is a rented house that Rein pays for every six months. The money he collected from the proceeds of stealing was not enough to buy a house he wanted.
"Damn, lo. I'm not a dairy cow. I work hard because I want to give them a comfortable and quiet place to live. Without fear of land disputes anymore like first," said Rein. He pretended to sulk with pursed lips.
Daren was also laughing. "Yes, yeah. Coming, yuk!" bring Daren. Rein nodded in agreement. However, a glimpse of Daren's attention was drawn to the car Rein had brought to his home. "Whose car is that?" tanyanya. Make Rein step aside, then turn his back toward the car parked in the yard.
"Can be found on the street," Rein replied figuratively.
"Kirain lo's ability to drift into the river," Daren joked while laughing discordantly.
"No, lah. It's a hidden talent that's dear to be eliminated." Rein laughed too. He hasn't thought about sin, "so don't I come in? I'm thirsty, right!" rein exclaimed as she rubbed her own neck.
"So, dong. What do you want to drink? I only have water in my house." Daren said while embracing Rein's body, inviting her into the house.
"Ck, if there's only water, why would you want to drink what?" decak Rein's.
Daren laughing. "It's pleasantries" he said.
...***...
Rein was silent for a moment when Daren asked him to tell her a story. Taking a deep breath, Rein started telling me everything. There was nothing Rein missed. Rein told me everything including his marriage to Aska.
"Huh? So you've married the same child of someone who already nolongin lo? It's called coercion, dong. They were sincerely nolongin lo. Very bego, si! I want to get married!" Daren gasped and immediately scouted Rein.
"Lo heard my story, didn't he? I told you I had to, Daren. Be forced, not forced." Rein spelled out his words with great emphasis.
"Just like that." Daren clucked again.
Rein sighed, he shadowed Abian's face. "Gue is the same as that kid. He was an orphan when he was a child. Just like me. I'm the same as if he made a deal. If Bian had been able to live a normal life like before, me and his omnya would have separated."
Daren's gust of breath was thrown rough. His best friend was too naive and unbearable. "How is our profession? You want to stop being a thief?" Daren asked seriously.
"No, lah. You forgot the car I brought?"
Daren pulled the corner of her lips. True too, Rein came to his house in a stolen car. That means that his marriage has no effect on the profession they have been doing for a long time.
"We agreed not to interfere in each other's affairs. Although ...."
"Even what?" Daren was curious to see Rein's face look riled up.
Rein looked at Daren while twitching nervously. Her lips hesitated to admit that her husband was a policeman. "Even if he doesn't know that I'm a thief," Rein's clairvoyant isn't entirely lying. She was not ready to talk about her husband's profession. I don't know what reaction Daren's gonna give him. It was possible that his best friend would immediately tell Rein to leave Aska and his nephew.
"What time is it?" ask Rein. He remembered Abian. The boy came home from school at about twelve in the afternoon. So Rein should've gotten home before Abian came home. Luckily at Abian's school there is a student invitation facility, so Rein doesn't have to bother to pick her up for school.
"A hour and a half eleven." Upon seeing the circular watch on his wrist, Daren answered Rein's question.
"Gue has to go back. Before Bian nyampe home, I have to go first." Rein stood up from his seat. Then he put the small bag he had on his shoulder.
"Lo want to go home with that car again?" ask Daren.
"No, lah. Take care of the car as usual. The owner may have reported to the police. If I take it home, kill yourself. Lo anterin I take the big road! I want to take the bus, all for the operation. I don't have HP now." Rein said as he widened his smile. Daren understood, he smiled amusedly.
"Basic maling!" his words insinuate themselves.
***
Time rotates according to time. The sky that was once bright, has now darkened. Evening arrived, Aska had also returned from traveling duty. Actually today Aska is not part of the traveling duty, but as a state servant, it does not feel at home if only stay at home. Now there is Rein. As much as possible Aska tried to avoid being alone with his wife at home.
"Rein, I want to ask you something." Ask when they are having dinner.
"Ask," said Rein as he bribed food into his mouth.
"So morning there was a car theft case around the road that you asked to stop. Didn't you see anything suspicious when you were there this morning?"
"Ohuk!" Rein immediately choked on his own food. He brought the glass that Abian had brought to him, and drank it quickly. Rein gasped at Aska's question. Turns out being a police wife would be this scary. Just once stole, but already made half-dead misgivings.
