JUDITH

JUDITH
IT WAS WRITTEN BY IRENE



While Irene and Eva were asleep, Yudith was still filling Irene's observation book with reading lights. The girl stopped taking notes, then pensive. Since yesterday she felt like something was wrong so her heart did not stop fidgeting. He had tried repeatedly to remember it, but the result was nilihil.


After a long time of just wasting time in silence and doing nothing, Yudith continued writing. Just writing a few words, he suddenly felt like his brain was being refreshed.


I don't know what happened, he then flipped the book sheet haphazardly, like very impatient. After finding what he was looking for, he read it and then breathed a sigh of relief.


"Yes, Lord," he murmured gratefully as he slammed his back against the back of the chair. "How can I forget this thing after death." Now he was muttering with regret.


Always show hostility. Staring hatefully. Does not like to be rebuked or advised. If it is forbidden to do something, he willfully does it. Doesn't like to hang out. I like to be alone and read books. Not talking, but likes to suddenly chuckle to say something that seems aimed at someone he really dislikes.


It was the result of observations at the beginning of Yudith's handling of Irene. He forgot something so important. If not realized until the end of handling the case, it can be a big hole that will make him fall into failure.


Irene is not mute. There is even where Yudith notes that Irene likes to talk in sleep. That fact was forgotten just like that because Irene never again suddenly dabbled or spoke in her sleep. His battle had indeed gotten better, but he was completely silent instead.


Yudith, who was struggling with her own thoughts, was unaware as Eva got off the level bed. The teenage girl approached Yudith, then touched her shoulder in a whisper,


"Mrs Yudith."


Yudith looked up and looked over. "Cock, haven't slept?" His voice was very slow so he did not disturb Irene who was sleeping soundly.


Not immediately answering, Eva reached into her pants pocket and pulled out a lump of paper, then gave it to Yudith, whispering more slowly than before, "So Irene wrote this kept throwing it in the trash."


Yudith received the lump of paper and Eva went straight back up to the bed. Arriving at the top and seeing Yudith looking at him, he put his index finger to his lips. After which, without a voice said, "Don't let Irene know."


Yudith could read his lips very clearly. He also nodded and smiled. After that, immediately parse the clumps of paper and put it on the table, then rub it like ironing so that it is not too tangled and the writing is easier to read.


As soon as the writing could be read, Yudith's eyes widened. "Yes, God," he murmured in shock.


Dad was put in a mental hospital. My mother died of illness. Ms. Duwina's twin sister's mother, but Irene's no love. He was willing to take Irene in just for the sake of inheritance.


Yudith immediately came out of the room and knocked on the door of Ms. Yuliana's room. "There's something important, ma'am," said Yudith as soon as Ms. Yuliana opened the door.


Ms. Yuliana glanced at the paper that Yudith was holding, then said, "We're going to the study."


It's almost twelve at midnight. All the residents of the dorm are already asleep. Talking in Yudith's room or in Ms. Yuliana's room is equally unsafe because it can disturb children's sleep. After sitting facing each other and reading Irene's writing, Bu Yuliana's reaction was the same as that of Yudith. Shock.


"So so. Jesus, the bad."


"And actually Irene wasn't mute, Mom."


Ms. Yuliana looked at Yudith with narrowed eyes. "She's already talking to you."


Yudith. "No. But I've heard him delirious several times complaining of pain, begging. Because I've been forgetting long enough."


"Okay, at least we know Irene's not mute. You see, the principal sister told me to take Irene to the ENT doctor. He's worried."


"Yes, Mother. That's so sorry, that kid."


After that, the two fell silent and not long after that went into their respective rooms. Arriving in the room, Yudith was surprised to see Eva sitting on the edge of Irene's bed patting the back of her hand.


"Nogugo." Eva spoke without a sound, but Yudith could read her lips.


As he approached, Yudith sat down next to Eva. "Have it, let's just mother. You sleep there again."


Instead of going up to her bed, Eva pulled Yudith by the door, and asked, "Are Irene going home, Mom?"


For a moment Yudith just stared, then asked in a whisper, "So Irene ngigau what?"


"Will not go home. So many times."


Yudith. "Irene's not going anywhere. He will always be here. Don't be sad."


Eva's eyes glazed over and her lips trembled. "Mom Yudith didn't lie, did he?"


"No lie. Don'worry. Believe the same mother's words, yes." Speaking in whispers, Yudith wiped Eva's wet eyes. "Now sleeping. If Irene suddenly wakes up and sees you crying, she must be sad."


Eva nodded, then turned around and walked to her bed. Yudith watched until Eva lay down and covered herself with a blanket.


The next day, Yudith missed the first lesson because he had to face the principal sister with Ms. Yuliana and Mr. Heru. Yudith sat in the middle, between Bu Juliana and Pak Heru.


"You're careless, banged up. Something as important as this is to forget." The headmaster sister spoke in a strongly condemning tone, after reading a copy of Irene's observation about sleep talking and interrupting.


"Sorry, Sister. Next time it won't happen again."


Ms. Yuliana mediated by asking, "So there's no need to go to an ENT doctor right, Sus."


"not yet needed. Let's see the development. Oh, yes, Mr. Heru, you will try to check, the empty house in Tidar. For the house that he said orphanage in the Pasuruan area for a while do not be disturbed first. Don't let them suspect."


"Good, Sister. What should not be immediately reported to the authorities to be supervised. People like them are usually good at running away."


"I know. But if they don't know that the crime has been discovered, it'll be easy."


"Take it too."


Afterwards, the principal sister spoke to Yudith and Ms. Yuliana, "This afternoon we take Irene to meet her father. I know which RSJ. Who knows, after that he'll talk again."


After each task, the meeting broke up. Just as Yudith and the others came out of the office, the office phone rang. The headmaster sister rushed to accept it.


"Hello ...."


"Hello, Sister. It's Irene's mother."


"Yes, Mom. Can anyone help or what?"


"Look, Sister. I'm sorry, but we've decided to bring Irene home."


The headmaster's sister fell silent. Those people are getting suspicious.
