"Say you want to ask for something! If your request makes sense. God willing, I will try to fulfill it. But if your request is illogical, let alone grant it, I will also make you regret for daring to ask for it."
I'm now sitting opposite Fuad at this dining table. Mama and Nadya seem to have gone to sleep.
Fuad chuckled.
"Your ultimatum is terrible, Brother-in-law! What do you think I'm gonna ask for? Ow .... Don't tell me you think I like you, huh? Something Mahfudz likes as long as you know, I don't like. My taste and taste are different. Including in the case of women. I as a normal man certainly prefer young women at least the same age. Mahfudz. He seems to be suffering from an oedipus complex psychological disorder. Well, just imagine it. He likes people who are much older, sorry brother-in-law, in terms of face and appearance I admit you are attractive. But you're still an old woman. You're a long way from Mahfudz. Doesn't that prove that he suffers from an oedipus complex? Well it can be understood throughout his life before he knew you, he only knew two women namely Mama and Kak Rahmah who were far away until 14 years from us, and he also caused Rahma's brother to die. In his heart there must be so much regret that he chose even women without realizing it looking for a mature figure like you as the redeemer of his guilt."
"To the point only. What do you mean by words?" I'm not happy.
"I mean don't be too sure that he loves you? What if all this time you just become the object of the oedipus complex only? He likes older women there must be a cause. And it was because of his guilt for Rahma's death"
"Fouad! Is every talk you always talk like this to anyone?" I said I couldn't believe it.
Fuad nodded arrogantly.
"For the size of a man if I think your mouth is too rough and cozy. Ahh, I feel sorry for Mahfudz. He must have often received harsh words from you like this. My poor husband!"
"He deserves it. Rahma's brother died because of her" Fuad said sharply.
"It looks like you're obsessed with Rahma's sister not Mahfudz. Or maybe you're the oedipus complex?" I said not happy.
Fuad looked at me sharply.
"We're back to focusing on your request. Tell me what you're asking for?"my many.
Fuad looked calm again.
"I heard back at the police station that you said the mastermind of your kidnapping was the deputy mayor of Waridi. Right?"
Now I look at him wanting to know. Whatdoes thatmean? Whatwant?
"Yes, then?"
"It looks like you want the tape because you're still curious about the case. You still want to find out about your abductee. My guess's right?"
I'm nodding. "Yes. Right"
"Let me go find out what's really behind the case."
I gawk. Wonder.
"Why do you want to investigate? Don't tell me because you care about Mahfudz and your sister-in-law. That obviously doesn't make sense" I said cynically.
Fuad who had stopped fiddling with the drone assembly resumed his activities.
"I want to investigate it and if it's proven true that Waridi's deputy mayor did it, I want to be the first person to make it content and upload the crime on youtube."
Ooooo, it's just about being a youtuber.
"In addition, I don't want people like that to be in politics. The political world has often been stigmatized negatively in society. Such a person does not deserve to be a politician" he said furiously.
I was more and more astonished to hear it.
"Are you interested in politics?"askaiku.
"Yes, why? I'm a student of Fisip. Is it wrong that I'm interested in the field of science I'm studying?"
"I thought you were a mechanical engineering student" I said.
"Tekhnik is just my hobby. My soul is in politics" he replied.
I mustered her.
"That's really cool. I hope one day you will be a clean and trustworthy politician. Well, even like you said, I also have a bad stigma on all politicians. I don't think any of them are sincere. All for the sake of interest. Well, like you! You are also currently helping me just for your sake right?" tanyaku.
Fuad smiled cynically. One corner of his lips looks up.
"Not to be fussy! Do you want or not accept my offer? Whatever my reason for helping you remains, you benefit in this as well" he said.
That's right Fuad said. With his help it might be a little easier to find the evidence I'm looking for about Waridi.
"Ok, okay. I'm taking your request. Where's the full vidio footage?"
Fuad nodded his head to look at me. She left me alone in the kitchen while she walked into her room to take what I asked for.
Not long after he returned and handed me an SD card memory in front of me.
"The file name is Andra's house" he said. "Later I need some information I need to investigate Waridi. I hope you can work together to tell me what you know" he said.
"All right" I said. "I'll tell you what you want to know about the kidnapping. Now I'm going back to my room first, sister-in-law?"
Fuad developed his hand to let me go. I can't wait to see Vidio's full recording back then. I hope there's a clue.
I walked into the room, put a glass on the study table and impatiently started picking up my phone. I took out my SD card and inserted the 64 GB SD card given by Fuad. Without lingering I began searching for the file Fuad meant. There is a lot of video footage of your website content there. I started looking one by one.
And ... aha!.. I found it. Andra's house!
I can't wait to open the file.
Ok, without lingering again guys like my promise in the previous vidio, this time I ...."
I watched Fuad's vidio closely from opening to minutes per minute. Until the 6th minute I finally saw the sighting of the big house from above. That's the house where I was kidnapped and held captive a few months ago. I could see it from the tall stacking board fence in front of the house. My heart began to thump at the house. But it looks like the house is deserted. There were only two parking trucks in front of the house. I was thinking whether the sighting of two units of the truck could be used as a tool to get additional information later. I took a screenshot first. I rubbed my three middle fingers on the screen several times until there were some screenshots I could take.
But it seems like I have to be disappointed that Fuad's drone only had a few seconds to capture the house. Although disappointed I had to keep watching this original recording until it was finished. A few minutes I was just treated to the view around the house. But finally from a distance I saw the house in the camera capture again. Getting closer, closer, wait a minute .. Now there is a person near the inner fence. Walking towards the security post. I rewinded the tape again, wanting to see more clearly. Looks like a man in white without arms. Soon I took a few more screenshots. Then there was no more clues until the end, until finally the drone was smeared because of strong winds to fall into a tree beside the house and had taken video footage when I was held captive.
I sighed to end watching the 13-minute vidio. I then copied the vidio into my phone memory. Tomorrow I have to return this SD card to Fuad.
After I finished watching, I checked the screenshot I got during the entire time I was watching. First I saw the screenshots that captured the two units of the truck. I enlarged the image size. Although not very clear, it seems I can find out the license plate number of this truck later.
The second, I began to observe the photo of the man I took the screenshot of earlier. I enlarged the size of the photo a few times. And when the dizoom, it was seen that this man almost had tattoos all over his body, on his legs, hands and neck. Reminds me of someone. Bang Gogo's. Mahfudz's patient gave me a packet of cook pan sets.
I checked again my other screenshots that managed to capture the figure of the man. I increased the size again. The photo captured the sighting of the man looking to the side. Looks like he just threw out a cigarette butt. I zoom bigger to the biggest. And the result left me speechless.
Oh my God, he's really Bang Gogo!
\*\*\*\*\*
The sound of the adhan on my phone app and also in the mosque, woke me up. I haven't even slept in an hour. Last night I couldn't sleep thinking about the unexpected discovery I had in Fuad's original footage. My head's dizzy.
I don't know how that guy could be Bang Gogo. What kind of coincidence is this? Was he really sick or just wanted to investigate me and Mahfudz on Waridi's orders? But if he pretended to be sick, Mahfudz would know. During this time Mahfudz routinely follow up him every morning.
But even if he was really sick, did Bang Gogo know Mahfudz and me? I never saw her at home in that barn for as long as I was kidnapped. It is different from Gogo. When I met him in the parking lot. I can tell she seems to have seen me. Oh my God, how is this? What should I do with this lead? Do I have to find that person's address and ask what I want to know about Waridi? Where do I find the address? I can't ask the disease department for data on Gogo. Or do I ask Mahfudz to find the address? I wasn't sure if my husband would willingly look for me, while he knew Waridi was dangerous. And even if I manage to find the address and contact him. Is that guy named Gogo gonna help me? What if he harms me? He seemed kind therefore he gave the set cook pan to me out of his gratitude to Mahfudz. But what if that cook pan set was just an angler for Waridi's other plans? Instantly I remembered the mutilated carcass of a kitten and made a gift for me. Is he the culprit? It's a little exaggerated to think that Ali did it even though I don't know the reason for coming to my wedding without seeing me. Gogo is far more likely to be the culprit.
I immediately stood up from the bed and would take the ablution water to the bathroom. I'm a little thirsty. I glanced at the glass of drinking water I took last night but never had time to drink. All right, I'll have a drink, and drop the glass off to the kitchen. The bathroom is close to the kitchen.
My lips have touched the end of the glass, but I undo my intention to drink. I took my bag and opened it. From the inside I took out a test pack that I deliberately brought from the hospital. This test pack I should take to test with Ummik to find out if I am pregnant or not. Ummik didn't call me last night, Ummik didn't look for me. I forgot to tell her I was staying at my mom's house. Maybe at this time Ummik thinks I'm sleeping in the hospital because I insist on not testing.
I wonder why they all think I'm pregnant. Eve, Umik even Ali? That brash ex! I growled at myself remembering the words he told me to check my menstrual cycle. What right does he say that? He's not my doctor, especially my husband.
That's why I had to do a test pack again this morning. I want to prove that I'm not that stupid to know my own body condition. I canceled drinking so as not to reduce the concentration of hCG levels in my body if I was actually pregnant during the test pack with the first urine this morning.
Immediately I went to the bathroom. It still seems lonely. Didn't Mama pray dawn?
I urinated, and dripped a little bit of my urine into the test pack. This time without a container and do not need to be dyed because I use a test pack equipped with a urine container so it does not need another holding container. I left it for a minute in the bathtub without seeing it.
After the time I think it's enough I take it and see it.
Oh my God, my eyes are still half sleepy until I am shocked to see it. The line is really two. This time it looks very clear. I can't say anything. This is clearly very surprising. In my mind there is only a question, how can it be? How could? Why am I not so happy to know this? Shouldn't this be good news? I'm rattled.
I remember the words of Fuad last night who said Mahfudz suffered from an oedipus complex? I was so disturbed by those words. Didn't Mahfudz actually love me? Was she just obsessed with me being older because she felt guilty about her brother's passing? And now in my womb there's a seed she planted, what if she doesn't love me? I really feel ill at myself right now. I am tickled at myself.
Old woman, oedipus complex suddenly I feel nauseous just thinking those words.
I immediately doused the test pack to remove the stool from the urine. Immediately I abudhu before I oversleep the dawn prayer. I opened the bathroom door and was shocked to see Mama standing at the door.
"Mama!" pekiku.
Testpack in my hand until it falls.
"Richa!" Instead, Mama was surprised by my screeching.
I hurriedly took the test pack, before Mama saw it. But late! Mama did see it.
"What is it, Raya?" ask Mama.
"Hmmmmm. Anu, Ma. It's just ...."
Mama took the test pack out of my hand.
"It was to ngetest the same Ummik at home, so Raya brought it from the hospital. But finally Raya was curious and ngetest herself ...."
I can't say anything more about that. Mama seemed very fixated on seeing the testpack she was holding.
"God, Ray! You pregnant? Positive this ...."
Mama looks amazed. I just smiled speecless.
"Yes, Allah is very good. It's a dawn blessing. This morning we got happy news. Oh, my goodness.... My mother will have two grandchildren. Mama's getting old donk now. Ray, we need to tell Ummikmu and Mahfud immediately. They would be very happy to hear it. Moreover, Ummikmu, this is really the first grandchild that is anticipated. Ouch.... Granddaughter Oma!"
Mama stroked my stomach with a baby.
"Mrs ...." I held Mama who was about to take ablution in the bathroom.
Mama quit.
"Please don't tell Mahfudz!"
"Hmmm .... Wh why?
I'm speechless. I don't know why I should hide it from him. I really feel ill for him.
"Because I want to tell you myself, Ma! Surprise."
I tried to smile.
