I Choose You!
#126 The Open
Rasyi should be behind me. Oh. He might have run first. There was a mother father. Rasyi is a smart kid, he knows where to go.
Mending I just quickly return. Later, I will not be able to walk. People are so piled up. It's hard to cross.
I arrived, Rasyi must be here.
“Mother!” shouted while walking slowly, “Rasyi is already here right?”
Crepe mom take, “Loh? Same with Fares.”
Yes but....
“Cute equals Rizki?” look back.
Most likely. Uncle stayed we bought a drink. Maybe Rasyi wants to find his papa first come here.
“Fares,” Uncle Rizki! “Should have waited for uncle there.”
Aa..., “... sorry,” Rashi invisible, “Uncle.... anu...”.
“Rizki, Rasyi is not the same you?” dad said it right away.
“Rasyi?” uncle see me, “Fares?”
“Tadi Rasyi behind Fares, go on..”.
Uncle doesn't know where Rasyi is. Continue, Rasyi....
The drink that uncle bought quickly was given to father. Uncle's running really fast. He tried to go back across the street.
Yes, it could be that Rasyi is still there. I should also look for.
“Fares,” hand father nahan, “You same mother used to be here.”
“Fares can help find!”
“Honey, please yes. Just a little while here aunty. Yes?” mom rubbed my face.
Yeah, I understand. If I hadn't been seen when I was looking for Rasyi, my mother's father would have been scared too. But if Rasyi isn't wanted now....
Already, not papa. Uncle was great. He could get Rasyi so easily. It could be that now uncle is looking for his friends, so he can help. You can also ask for help from many people.
For now, I'm silent, just be a good boy first.
“Iya. Fares wait with mom.”
Dad smile, “You find a place to wait. HP must be online.”
“Iya,” mom hold me tight.
“I'm coming,” aunt Ira running with dad.
Same aunt father not seen, until night. All I remember is that my mom always talked. Take me to a nice cafe. I think there's nothing. Rasyi is gone.
When dad called mom, her voice was hoarse. Rasyi met but he was crying. Rasyi's hand was wounded.
...)( )( )( )( )( )( )( )( )( )( )(...
“Why's number, sir?”
Uncle carried Rasyi in the house, “Please bring P3K.”
Rasyi is still sleeping. Her eyes are swollen. But uncle did not shut up. He's cleaned Rasyi's wounds.
Why would... Rasyi was hurt like that? If the wound is in the place of the bracelet, it does not fall, right?
“Rizki,” father forward uncle and Rashi.
But uncle just shut up. Uncle must be angry. His eyes had never been so scary before. I see, Rasyi got like that because of me.
Uncle must be mad at me.
“Ki, I just want to help.”
“Silence. You can't help at all.”
Dad still talks, “Police held him until now⏤”
“Then how did he bring Rasyi?! Rasyi got hurt for sure because of him.” uncle was very angry.
Nothing I understand. Adults are always confused. Uncle didn't see me at all. I was angry at someone else.
But, whose uncle is angry with? It's wrong of me.
“Iya, understand,” dad still effort to talk, “Makanya⏤”
“Stop taking care of my business.”
“This is the problem! This is not the case if you want to cooperate with us from the beginning!!” dad, don't get angry, either.
“You want to repeat your mother's death in someone else?!”
Mammy? Motherfather?
“Rizki!” Mom was angry too.
“Do not talk!” uncle is silent.
Aaa!
Why, daddy why?! Don't pick uncle up a fight! Dad, don't pull uncle's shirt!
Don't get. I just want me not to be close. So mommy held my shoulders tight.
“You've gone too far!” dad, off.
Mom, off. Uncle and Dad want to fight! Must stop!
“I told you, you don't know anything!” uncle, don't be angry.
“It's my fault!!”
They're silent. They should be quiet when I scream like this.
I admit that I was wrong. Like a bad boy. I've been like an evil brother. I will be able to accept any punishment.
The important thing is not to fight. Justjust please.
Rasyi will be afraid.
“Sorry, uncle. If I keep an eye on Rasyi..,” do not cry, then Rasyi is more afraid. Her brother must be strong, “Sorry..”.
Guess, I must have hugged her. Dad's not in front of uncle anymore either. Not everything papa. Let's just get mad at me, so you don't have to fight.
“Papa?” Rasyi's awake!
Uncle quickly nahan Rasyi to keep sitting at uncle's feet, “Papa wokein Rasyi, huh? Excuse me. Let's sleep in the room.”
Nearby uncle stood by the side. His hand is a dozen of my head.
“Uncle is not angry. It's not Fares' fault,” keeps, uncle goes.
Looks like Rasyi's sleeping in her room.
“They're going home.”
Uncle can say, but I also know that uncle is still angry.
Uncle....
Of course he's angry. When he was eleven years old, he understood. If you think about it again, it's not a complicated thing to understand. Moreover, if uncle is not really angry at me.
Also true.
Six years.
I think it's that long until I understand something's wrong.
It's free if I ask Dad. Especially mother, she must have avoided trouble. Just one and I have to ask you directly.
I've been trying to find out for a long time, nothing to spend anymore.
“Uncle,” try to stay focused on lessons.
“Hmm.”
“Days. That's uncle's grandfather's name, right?”
Quiescent. Uncle's library is much quieter.
It's difficult. It is not easy to face uncle. Dad admitted that too. I did this because I had no other choice. Everyone, I should know everything.
“So right, who took Rasyi away at the age of six yesterday..”.
“Where to?”
“Difficult, but I can dig up info everywhere.”
Uncle laughs, “Hendra ajarin his son is too smart.”
Let's get serious. Book and pen. Looking at uncle Rizki.
“Uncle,” should be ready, “Please tell me. Why was Rasyi's grandfather even a fugitive from the police?”
“That's a question for your father right?”
“I wouldn't have gotten into uncle's neighborhood if it wasn't through uncle. I understand that from my father's circumstances as well.”
“Hmm...,” uncle is not interested, “Then you should also understand this is not your reach.”
It was expected that would be the answer. Uncle can always return people's sentences. It's all just to keep others away.
Answers that should satisfy⏤
“Riza died because of her too.”
...
Whahuh?
“By knowing that, you already understand you can't mess around, right?”
What uncle said, right. Danger indeed.
Honey, uncle misunderstood. That's the reason why I want to know more. His red line, towards his grandfather Rasyi. Sister Riza left, aunt Nisa left, Rasyi almost left.
Just try talking again, “That's also the reason.”
“Means?”
“I understand that uncle thinks I'm an outsider. I love my uncle's son. Rasyi...,” Rasyi it.., “My sister also.”
Uncle, just shut up. Keep talking again, “What do you have?”
“Nothing. That's why I went straight to my uncle. Uncle's smart is amazing. Uncle can definitely find more potential that I do not know.”
Looks like uncle laughs again, “I don't like brash children,” but I see his eyes are clear, “But I don't hate it either.”
The answer..positive!
“Do not blame me if finally impressed you uncle use.”
“Sure. I already know uncle must be like that.”
I'm Rasyi's brother. This is all natural. I'm doing everything.
