I'm Not a Little Girl, Om!

85. Goodbye Jessi

Gilda stared at Verry's hollow, stiffened in the coffin. She could not believe her first son was dead, her tears breaking while waiting at the funeral home.

"This can't be allowed, that unlucky kid should be taught a lesson immediately." Gilda spoke with hateful eyes.

"Quite Gilda, how much more do you want to see the destruction of this family? Haven't you realized Verry's death was our fault, too?" dion patted his wife on the back.

"But Pa, because of that unlucky kid, Verry died. The pity of Edward's fate as young as this was left by his Father" said Gilda who had not realized the situation.

"Mom, all this happened because we trusted the myth too much. And the cause is you and Verry who kidnapped Jeniffer 9 years ago. If you don't do that, maybe Jeniffer won't have this kind of double personality" Dion said in a high note.

Gilda who did not accept will protest, but before she could say something some police officers entered the VIP room at the funeral home located in North Jakarta.

"With Lady Gilda Kusuma? We of the police officers want to make an arrest on the person concerned for the kidnapping and detention of Jeniffer Sukmajaya," said one of the police officers surprised everyone. Even Gilda until struggling when 2 police officers already hold her hand.

"What the fuck, let go. I'm innocent, that unlucky kid who obviously caused all this to happen." Jerit Gilda while continuing to curse Jeniffer.

Dion, who knew his guilty wife was immediately bowed down in lethargy, there is also a possibility that this case can drag him into one of the defendants because he helped silence Gilda's evil plans.

He wondered why the police would decide so quickly that his wife was the mastermind of Jeniffer's kidnapping plot. Has the Ongtara family reported it?

Risda and Edward who had been silent since then only looked at Gilda's back which began to move away from the room filled with this wreath.

"Mama? Would you like to reply to Ci Jeniffer?" ask Edward lirih.

"No, son, from the beginning Mama had disagreed with the way your Papa kidnapped her own daughter and planned to eliminate her. But Mama can't do anything, now your Papa died also due to his own actions. We better go on living and let go of the grudges that will hurt us" Risda said with tears in her eyes.

"Then, is Mama still in town or are we moving to Phopho's place in Singkawang?" ask Edward again.

"That's what we think about later, the most important thing is that we finish Papa's funeral tomorrow the day after tomorrow," said Risda who finally tried hard for his future and Edward.

Dion who heard the conversation of the son-in-law and grandson immediately said, "If you want to move to Singkawang it is your right. Papa can't make it, but Papa beg you to come back here every vacation, huh?"

"Yes, Pa, I'll think it's okay to go home or stay here" both sayings should be stopped because there are guests who serve.

The kind who had regained consciousness held his head and grimaced. Apparently his voice was caught by Joseph's sense of hearing, the man quickly approached the lover's bed and asked.

"Thank God you're awake, I'm so worried because you've been unconscious for almost 4 days. The psychiatrist you told me there's an upheaval between you and Jessi."

Jeniffer stared at Joseph's anxious face, the dark circles under the man's eyes confirming that Joseph had been sleep deprived for several days. Indeed, he had a fight with Jessi in a dream, maybe he will tell me when his stomach is full.

"Om, I'm hungry, can you eat chicken noodles or Padang sate?" jeniffer asked while showing the look on the face full of pleading.

"I'll ask you if you can eat it with the doctor. Now you eat hospital food first yes," persuaded Joseph when he saw Jeniffer's face pouting.

"Hospital food is tasteless, not tasty," Jeniffer refused, covering his mouth with both hands.

Joseph breathed a long breath, how could Jeniffer recover quickly if he did not want to eat? While there are drugs that must be routinely taken by the girl?

"Do not worry, just swallow yes, then get out of here I take you out and eat good," finally Joseph tried to persuade the girlfriend again.

Inevitably, Jeniffer complied and began to swallow his porridge lunch.

"So I felt in an empty, dark room, I was alone. I walked but found no way out until I cape myself," Jeniffer paused while remembering what happened in his dream.

"Jessi showed up and we both argued, saying I was too weak and couldn't keep myself better than the one who was forever coming in my place" Jeniffer said.

"Can you explain what happened?" Joseph asked while looking at the lover's eyes.

Jeniffer ran indeterminate directions while searching for the whereabouts of someone in this dark and empty place. His strength was already drained away but he did not find a way out of this increasingly stifling chest.

When Jeniffer stopped because he was exhausted, suddenly in front of him appeared a girl who was exactly the same face with him, he said, only what distinguishes it is the girl in front of him wearing a tomboy-style shirt with a hat tilted to the back of a t-shirt and training trousers in black and white outer for the exterior. Black sports shoes further reinforce the impression of arrogance from the girl.

"Jessi, is that lo?" jeniffer asked after neutralizing his breath.

"Yes this Jessi cave appears only to tell you that the cave wants to take your mind experts forever" Jessi said with a cynical tone.

"It can't be so anyway the cave is Jeniffer not Jessi!" jeniffer started to panic.

"Why can't it? You just can't take care of yourself properly so it's better the cave is awake and you are sleeping" Jessi replied as she pointed at Jeniffer.

"Isn't revenge achieved? The cave of the image you shared also that Papa was shot for protecting our bodies" said Jeniffer, who immediately mentioned Verry in a second conversation.

"Not enough! The family has not been destroyed at all" Jessi cried with a thunderous cry.

"Jessi, cave beg you, stop your revenge. How many more lives will be sacrificed if we continue to fight with our own families?" jeniffer asked in a clear tone.

"Againly sure, Aqiu will definitely not stay silent. They must have been reported to the police for our abduction and detention" Jeniffer said.

Jessi laughed loudly when she heard Jeniffer's words, after her laughter subsided she said in a sharp tone, "Can you imagine if the cave did not come out at that time you must have been dik*sa took turns with the old grandmother's men."

"The caveman thanks Samalo for that, but please forget that grudge and eliminate the hatred. Doesn't the cave now have Om Joseph protecting the cave?" Jeniffer tries to negotiate and Jessi seems to think.

"Only for the sake of a man do you become so pussy like this?" jessi's taunts were only responded to silently by Jeniffer.

"But he also called the cave out while inside here and the cave is sure he is the best man for the cave" Jeniffer said steadily.

Silent shortly afterwards because the two did not throw words at each other, Jeniffer and Jessi seemed to be thinking.

"OK, if you believe he's the best man for you, you can't do anything. Actually the cave waits until the moment someone who can keep you from threats. It seems like with or without Joseph you can take care of yourself, huh?" jessi said with a sincere smile and Jeniffer gasped when she heard it.

"What does it mean to talk like that?" ask Jeniffer.

"Gua just wanted to say, goodbye. The task of the cave was over by now. From now on live well with the man you love. Remember don't call the cave anymore, yeah. Because if the cave until called again then the history is not lost and replaced by the cave," said Jessi while breaking tears.

The two cried together to face the breakup. Jessi prepared to turn around to head to that boundless space. But before that he said, "From now on we are both an inseparable entity. Lo is a cave and vice versa. Good bye Jeniffer."

After saying that Jessie steadily stepped up and Jeniffer who realized immediately said. "Goodbye Jessi."

Joseph only fell silent when Jeniffer finished telling the story and in his heart he was grateful that Jessi would not bother Jeniffer. It seems like a bright future awaits them both.
