Again Ridho was confused by the instructions written on the paper that was lying next to a black box-shaped bag that he was now carrying. What contents? He wonders. Is it a bomb? But the weight is very light. Even as if there is no. It was just that he had to obey the order written in the paper earlier. Worried that someone would love him to endanger his wife's life.
Ridho glanced back at his watch. The time to solve the mission this time is still about 57 minutes. The man sat himself on a stone step, while continuing to read the instructions.
The phrase the busiest place is his concern. Then on the phrase man will come from all over the world. Isn't that really easy to solve? The busiest place in the city can be a place of human meeting and doing various transactions in it. The market? But the phrase where humans would come from all over the world made the man wrinkle. The only place where humans could have come from all over the world was the airport, of course. But which airport is the busiest in the city considering there are two major airports in Jakarta. Ridho searched for it in the search engine.
The busiest airport in Indonesia is Soekarna Hatta, only the airport is located in Tangerang, Banten. The third part of the phrase, it may indicate the terminal. Is it true that the next meeting refers to terminal 3 of Soekarno Hatta Airport. Ridho again searches his search in search engines on the internet. He also knew that Halim Perdanakusuma Airport has three terminals, but is it true? Halim Airport is the 8th busiest airport in the country.
Ridho went back to reading the clues on the paper. There was one sentence of the language that he did not understand because it was not written in English like the others.
Non arrivare in ritardo al parco halal
What language is this? Ridho wondered still being chased by time.
Like Spanish or maybe Portuguese, or Italian?
Ridho typed the words in the sentence in the online translation machine and could immediately detect the language, which turned out to be Italian, with the translation results, ‘don't be late to the halal park.’
The remaining time is 45 minutes. Ridho typed Halal Park in the search engine, which turned out to be quite a lot of locations. He forgot to add another clue, so rewrite it with ‘Location Halal Park at what airport?’
The search engine also shows the answer. Ridho immediately ran to get out of the park and then called a taxi that passed, he had no time if he had to book a taxi online because the time was getting more tight. Forced to leave his motorbike parked in Proclamation Park. The time to get to the airport from this place takes approximately 35 minutes, he was really chasing time.
Ridho got into a taxi, “Ke Soetta Airport terminal 3, sir! Fast!” he shouted while closing the door.
The taxi driver tightened his gas speed, as Ridho kept telling him to like that. They passed through an endless density of highways before going into the inner-city tolls. Ridho continued to stare at his watch. The seconds hand keeps growing, but the man's chance of finding his wife is dwindling. The taxi driver drove his car inside the toll road in the city of Jakarta, towards Soekarno Hatta Highway. Nimble, the mustachioed man wearing his company uniform overtook the various vehicles there, so that within twenty minutes both of them are already in the Soekarno Hatta Airport area which is now entering the segment to terminal three Soekarno Hatta Airport. With anxious expectation, Ridho searched for roughly where the Halal Park was located.
The man ran out of the taxi that had taken him directly to the terminal three of Soekarno Hatta Airport. Ridho immediately asked about Halal Park or better known as Halal Park to the officers on guard.
“Sorry, Sir? Can you please show me the plane ticket?” ask the officer at the terminal gate.
“I won't get on a plane, I want to find my wife here!” he said he was panicking because there were 15 minutes left.
“Sorry you can't get in without a plane booking ticket!” said the officer again.
Ridho was really frustrated. Does he have to break down the guard to get inside and find Halal Park?
Suddenly Ridho looked at the box bag he was still carrying. He opened the bag because he was too curious, himself still in front of the terminal entrance gate. Suddenly his heart was shocked to get a plane ticket in his own name there. Without thinking anymore, Ridho immediately showed the ticket to the officer who questioned it, and immediately allowed him to enter without asking more.
Ridho ran towards the location of Halal Park, many people noticed him who was in such a hurry. Maybe they thought that this man was chasing the plane even though he did not pass the officer who took care of his departure. Ridho continued to search for the existence of the park, until he finally found a signpost that told him the location of Halal Park.
It turns out that Halal Park contains tenants from various products and brands in Indonesia that already have halal certification. Most are souvenir shops, cafes, and souvenirs. Ridho started scanning for the presence of a suspicious figure. There's still time left there.
He saw a figure similar to the one who put the bag on the Proclamation Monument earlier. Ridho immediately approached the man in black clothes and sunglasses without hesitation, then grabbed the collar of the suspicious man.
“Where's Patricia?!” ask Ridho with his emotions.
The man chuckled without saying anything.
“Quick say!” said Ridho using his English.
“Do you not remember me?” the man said later, he took something out of his pocket. Ridho took off the grip on his collar, then stepped back while continuing to pay attention to the man in front of him.
The man took off his glasses, his light brown eyes looking like Patricia. Then began to wipe his face brownish yellow, which then now turned into a yellowish white typical of Western faces.
“Leo!” ridho said he did not believe it.
The man smiled. Her face was clean without any bewok like the last they met.
“Why can you be here?” asked Ridho surprised.
“I just want to give you a gift!” said relaxed.
“Where's Patricia? And aren't you being held?” ask Ridho again.
Ridho chuckled in disbelief.
“Honey!” yelled at someone from the side. Ridho.
“Paty!” Ridho immediately approached his beloved wife and held her tightly in his arms.
“I'm so worried about you!” said Ridho clutched his wife's cheeks.
“I also did not expect this all turned out to be the work of Leo!” answer Patricia.
“He's really a crazy guy!”
Leonardo just smiled hearing Ridho's words insulting him blatantly. Of course, what if the name is not crazy? Kidnapping his own sister to give him a gift? Just be right! Ridho did not think.
Ridho and Patricia sat in front of Leonardo, ordering two cups of cappucino.
“You have to go, I already bought that ticket for you. So vacation!”
“You crazy?! Why not report it carefully?!” ridho shouted in front of the relaxed man.
“I only tested you, Mr. Effendi!” said smile.
Ridho was eager to give one punch to his face which now looks smooth.
“We are going on holiday to Bali, Honey! And we have to check in now!”
“Are you sure? Even we didn't bring anything!” Ridho.
“Wear this!” leonardo gave me a credit card.
“You can shop and vacation at will. Let's just say it's my debt to you for making your marriage fucked up.”
“Leo, you don't have to do this!” Ridho. He forgave her for a long time. He did not want to have any problems with his brother-in-law.
“It's okay! You deserve it, please! I want to see you guys happy. And come back to London, Papa wants us all together!”
Ridho and Patricia looked at each other. Ridho realized this should be discussed longer, because making a decision was not easy.
“Alright, we accept your gift! I don't need this and we'll rethink my return to London.” Ridho handed Leonardo's credit card back to the man. He still has his pride as a man. He doesn't need that card.
“Alright then. Have fun! Check in quickly because the plane will be coming in an hour!” leonardo said, leaving there and waving his hand.
Ridho looked at the man in surprise. Is it that easy for Leonardo to come and go from one country to another. Really crazy guy!
“So we'll honeymoon?” ask Patricia sparkling.
“Maybe!” answer Ridho.
“Aah I'm so happy!” patricia hugged her husband.
