Lantern Behind The Bars

Lantern Behind The Bars
Go on vacation



*****


After feeling quite satisfied all day with Zena around the park, Zena also drove me home.


But arriving at home it turns out the mother is only alone because the father has gone again somewhere. Luckily, nothing unwanted happened to you.


After the accident it seems like Aunt Isma is now a fugitive, because the news of the accident has spread almost throughout the media, both online and offline.


But until now there has been no news about the arrest of Aunt Isma, it seems like Aunt Isma has planned everything well, so the police have difficulty tracking her.


At dinner with my mother, I began to carry out my plans.


I invite you to move house, because I know you do not like the holidays and may just refuse my invitation if I take her on vacation.


"Mother ... can I talk to you about something?" I asked, starting a conversation.


"Yes, son, can you please, what do you want to say, dear?" My mother responded to me casually.


"Mother, do you know who deliberately harmed us yesterday?" 


"Dear, who is it? You know?" Mother frowned.


"Tau Bun, it's Aunt Isma!" I said, not wanting much talk.


"Huh, Aunt Isma? Are you serious, son?" Mother looked at me with an incredulous look.


"I'm serious Mother, even I can prove it," I also answered your question casually.


"Indeed, where do you get your evidence, son?" Mom seemed curious about what I just said.


"My friend Bun, it happens to be his security manager father, so there's CCTV footage." I lied to my mother intentionally.


"Oh my God, why would Aunt Isma do that like us, son, is it our fault with her?" Mother seems to believe in my words, that Aunt Isma caused all the disasters that occurred.


"Mother .. We are no longer safe here Bun, we have to move for a while!"


"Moved? But where to move, honey?" Mother frowned again.


"To Overseas Bun or out of town, do you want to?"


"But moving is not easy, dear,"


"I know Bun, but it's for our own safety,"


"It's Not Dear, continue to manage the same Shop Mother's Company who if we move abroad?"


"Yes if Mommy believes, I can kok Bun, I'm ready to replace Mommy for a while until Mommy is born later,"


"Anything is there, son! Mother does not believe in you dear, but managing the company is not easy, dear,"


"Mother I'm serious Bun, we're not safe anymore Bun stay here, please Our mother moved huh?" my door. "If it's about the company, Zena can help us too, she understands how Bun how to manage the company …"


"Hmm .. but we haven't prepared anything sweetheart, the place of residence is not there yet, the other preparations are also no kiddo,"


"But, Mommy agrees that we're moving?"


"Dear, if it's for our safety we better move first for a while, until it's safe here again,"


"Okay Mommy, anyway Mommy just leave if it's time, let me who ready everything, Bun?"


"Are you serious, son?"


"I'm serious Mother, anyway Mother just sit sweet, let all our needs I take care of Okay?" I tried to convince my mother to agree with my invitation.


"Yes already, Mommy believes you are the same .." Finally my mother agreed to immediately move house as soon as possible, although me and Mommy had a small debate.


"Thank you Mother" I said to Mother.


"Yes Darling .. oh yes, you definitely need money right make our transfer fee? Later Mommy loves the ATM Mommy the same as you!"


"Emc ... Yes Mother, but I have savings Kok Mother, God willing enough for our needs for 3-4 months,"


"No need to love it's your money, son, you just save it so that Mother only if it's about finances?"


"Emm .. okay, Mother, I'm following Mother,"


After chatting with my mother, I immediately rushed back to the room to inform Zena.


Zena told me to wait about two days to get everything ready.


While I have to make sure things are safe under control.


After informing Zena, I immediately returned to the family room and slept with mother.


At 06:00 in the morning.


Activities in the morning like I usually do homework and help mom pack her things to take away later.


****


Two days did not finally pass.


Today my mom and I are moving out for a while. All the supplies are ready, I don't bring a lot of clothes, just bring a few strands and important items.


I made sure in advance that Aunt Isma did not know about the departure of the mother and I saw in the CCTV footage, it looks like Aunt Isma was with her father in the dark house.


Shortly after making sure everything was under control, Zena called me and was ready to pick me up.


Mother was ready to leave, but suddenly mother seemed to forget something.


My mother and I chatted in the living room while waiting for Zena to arrive.


"Honey, you forgot to call me yet!" Cetus mother, while taking her phone from the bag.


"Later Mother, when you arrive. Oh yeah Bun, then please don't tell me the same dad, yeah, if we move?" I firmly on mom.


I forgot I haven't had time to forbid mom to tell dad about our move, lucky mom did not tell dad at all, maybe you forgot.


"Well, why darling? How are you going?" Mother looked at me in wonder.


"Mother .. father does not agree with us, father does not know anything, if we say suddenly want to move there later father even misunderstand Bun, justin aja father mah here, if we say suddenly want to move, after all, you rarely come home," I tried to convince you for a logical reason.


"Keep then Mommy has to say what is the same father son?" Ask mom, it seems that you are confused by my request.


"Mother said if at school I have a Special Tour for the 12th grade and the length is approximately for 3 months. So, Mommy comes along to guide, that's how Bun is it?" I proposed to you to lie to dad.


"Dear, Mother will look for the same reason your father!" Mother's speech.


Mother apparently agreed with my advice and did not get angry at me for lying to father.


"Yes, you need to be calm, Mother knows!" mother says. 


I am lucky to have a mother who always tries to understand me.


Before long, Zena finally came to pick me up and mom. Not much further ado, we immediately rushed to leave this simple mother's house.


All along the way I was just thinking about how I planned to go. 


Mother seems curious, where will Zena take me and mother go. 


Just like me, I was curious because Zena had not been able to tell me where we were going to move.


"Darling, where are we really going?" Ask mommy to me.


"Out of town Auntie," said Zena.


"Outtown? Is there a place for us to live?" Mother looked a little surprised and worried.


"There's aunty, I've prepared everything, as Sherin requested," said Zena casually.


"Oh that, okay thank you so much Zena? Sorry about Aunt Sherin so much to take care of you, son …"


"Together Aunt, I never felt bothered at all,"


****


After a long journey, we finally arrived at our destination safely. 


From the courtyard looks a building with a modern design. It turns out that Zena prepared the Villa for me and the mother to stay later, the Villa is not too big, but looks luxurious with complete facilities, it looks like the mother will be comfortable staying here.


"Finally we arrived too, just go in yuk?" Take Zena, while helping me bring my luggage and also mother.


My mother and I immediately followed Zena's steps leading me into the Villa. 'Wah .. what a luxury.' I murmured.


"Zena Villa as luxurious as this must be expensive right Nak?" Ask Zena.


It turned out that the question you were asking Zena was just like what I had in mind.


"No Auntie .. This villa has me, a gift from my father first, so Auntie can stay here as long as Auntie wants," replied Zena.


"Oh yeah, well .. Aunty really so not good with you or aunty just rent it, son?"


"Aunty, don't think about it? Now that Aunt is taking a break in the room, Auntie must be tired of traveling long distances?" 


"Oh yeah, let's talk about that later, shall we? If so Aunt rest first, Aunt's body feels sore all, you also rest huh?" 


"Do you want me to call a masseur?"


"No Zen, Aunt rest enough later also better,"


"real Auntie? If Auntie's sick let me call her Tan,"


"No thanks, Auntie, take a break,"


"OK deh Auntie, if there's anything or need anything, Auntie don't hesitate to say the same I am aunty?"


"Yes Zen, thank you very much already want to be bothered with Aunt and Sherin …"


"Yes Aunty, I don't bother at all Auntie …"


Mother only replied to Zena with a smile, then I immediately drove mother to her room, then I chatted outside with Zena, while enjoying the peaceful atmosphere here.


"Sherin, come here! I want to show you something," Zena asked while pulling my hand.


"Yes Zen, what's wrong? Where are you taking me?" I asked, while trying to compensate for Zena's sudden steps.


"Udah go," Zena didn't tell me where she was taking me.


I just followed him at last.


Turns out Zena took me to the backyard.


But suddenly my eyes seemed stunned to see a vast expanse, a beautiful natural scenery from above here. 


The breeze with the open natural scenery, it felt like my heart and mind suddenly felt calm and peaceful.


I breathed in that very refreshing air.


"Gee ... Very beautiful Zen here!" As I stretched my hands wide, I enjoyed the cool breeze and the enchanted sight.


"Do you like Sher?" Ask Zena.


"I love Zen here" I replied.


It feels like all the burdens are gone.


"Thank God if you like it, there's one more thing Sher wants me to show you" Zena said.


"What?" Ask me. 


I immediately turned my eyes to Zena.


"Mobile for you!" Zena suddenly thrust the phone at me.


I also reflexively frowned. "But what is Zen for? I have it!" I just kept quiet not receiving that phone.


"We sit there!" Take her, showing her a swing not far from where Zena and I were standing. "There we can chat while enjoying the atmosphere," he continued, while again gently pulling my hand.


I could only follow in his footsteps, then Zena and I sat on a chair made of rattan modified in such a way.


"In this Villa I have installed CCTV from various directions, so you can see everything from this phone. Take it easy, no one will know including your mother. And I also hired a few guards, there was a security guard, there was a housekeeper, and also some midwives who will take care of your mother while here, I also connected some cameras, I also, to my cell phone. But you calm down, on my phone I can only see the outside area of the Villa anyway." Zena broke the silence again and continued her words explaining at length to me.


"Geez your Zen to such an extent, thank you very much Zen? You're always there for me when I'm hard, I don't know how to repay all your kindness Zen!" I can't figure out why Zena's always been so nice to me, while I don't know how to return Zena's good favor to me and my family.


"Sama-sama Sher ... don't think about it ah, I will always be there for you Sher," Zena threw her charming smile at me.


"But Zen ... Why are you so good as me? Aren't you afraid that I'm the bad guy?"


"Because you're a special friend in my heart. If you're bad I don't care, I'll still be good to you. Anyway, as long as there's me, there can't be anyone else hurting you Sher," said Zena.


"There's still plenty of Zen, I'll do my best to help you, if you have any more problems, too,"


"Yes Sherin, we don't have to discuss it anymore, hmm .. We just enjoy the view here, okay?"


I can only nod in agreement with Zena.
