Last Port

A Conjecture

That morning with restless Lika pacing back and forth in her house, the children just finished breakfast, they were noisily about to play outside, while Lika worried about the mysterious message last night, Lika was afraid that if Kezia and Nando played outside, there would be people who kidnapped her like that time. Therefore with all her strength Lika keeps the children stay at home.

"Sister.I went to a friend's place first yes.there are group tasks to be done..." Lia said to surprise Lika.

"Can't work at home aja Lia.help sister take care of the children dong..." Pinta Lika pleads.

"Well, we can't do it.we have agreed.This is why I'm late..." Said Lia while glancing at her watch.

"Hmm, yes already.but don't go home for long..." Sahut Lika relented. Not long after Lia left Lika.

Lika sat on the sofa looking at her sister's departure until she was lost behind the gate of the fence, not how long Kezia and Nando came to her.

"Bu Lika..i bosen nih at home continue.learn already, PR work already, watch TV already. I want to go outside..." Kezia said as he struggled spoiled to Lika.

"Yes Ma...Nando is also bosen.ayo dong we play outside..." Take Nando along and start pulling Lika's hand.

"Let's play with Miss Lika at home...Ms. Lika has a good toy you know.certainly you guys have never played.gimana...want you not?" Lika asked diverted the two children.

"Others, ma'am...?" Kezia said curiously.

"I want to, Mom..." Connect Nando.

"Okay.oke..wait a minute..don't go anywhere..." As fast as lightning Lika ran towards the warehouse looking for something. Then it was not long before Lika was welcomed back by the children.

"Where's the toy Ma'am...?" Ask Kezia enthusiastically. Then Lika took out something from behind her hand that she had been hiding from earlier.

"It's...." Show Lika. Kezia and Nando looked at each other in wonder.

"That's what's the ma'am...?" Ask Nando.

" This is her name... congklak!'

"Huh..congklak?!" Both at the same time.

"How to play Mom..ajarin dong..." Kezia.

"Okay.yuk sitting close here.note the way.later Kezia and Nando can change the game." Deftly Lika taught them how to play congklak. For now Lika could still distract them to play outside.

Lika gives a lot of activity to Kezia and Nando, she tries to keep the children from taking her outside again, before lunch after lunch, Lika tells the children to take a nap. After the children slept, Lika breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ah thank goodness they can take a nap.so there is no temporary whining to play outside..." Mumbled Lika.

Lika pressed her mobile number, she was about to contact Ricky, it felt like her heart was already hard to face the children.

"Hello..."

"Hello mr. Ricky.bapak when to go home..." Ask Lika without a stale base.

"Lho..What's the matter Teacher? The kids are okay...?" Ricky said with a slightly worried tone.

"Good children sir.now they're taking a nap..." Lika Sahut.

"Oh..thank goodness.I come home tomorrow morning Mom.later I go straight there and pick up the kids.it feels like I've missed them..." Ricky.

"Well sir, I hope Mr. Ricky can come home soon..." Lika Sahut.

"That's not it, sir.but that's it. I'll wait for tomorrow morning sir..." Said Lika, she did not want to tell the incident of a mysterious message last night, afraid to disturb Ricky's mind, because Lika knew, everything that concerns her children must be Ricky will be quick emotions.

Lika thought, she also needed a friend to reveal all her heartbreak, she wanted to tell Bu Ina, but hesitated. Finally he decided on the story with Mr. Alan, because at least Mr. Alan knows a lot about himself and the children, and Alan is also good at keeping secrets.

Then Lika wrote a message on her phone, she asked Alan to come to the house this afternoon, in addition to making the children happy and forgetting the desire to get out, can also shed a little.

************

That afternoon, when all the residents of the house were bathing, Lika sat on the terrace while waiting for Alan's arrival, suddenly her eyes caught something strange behind a tree near the fence of her house, Lika focused on her gaze and watched closely who was behind the tree, like a person, but it was unclear, that person was wearing a jacket and hat, she said, from a distance far enough Lika does not know whether the person is female or male.

Lika's chest started to rumble, she felt that someone was in love with her, anxious and afraid to approach her, then she went inside her house and locked the door tightly. Kezia and Nando appear to be watching a cartoon film accompanied by Lia who recently returned home.

Tok.dok....

Lika was aghast at the sound of knocking on her door, she peeked out from behind the curtains, it turned out that Alan was already standing there. Soon Lika opened the door of her house.

"Hi Bu Lika.kok surprised to see a ghost..." Alan said with a smile. Lika looked to the right and to the left.

"Sir.we talk in front first..." Sahut Lika while out to the terrace. Lika looked behind the tree there was already nothing strange anymore.

"What's wrong, Miss Lika?" Ask Alan curiously.

"Sir Alan, did you see anything behind the tree in front of you?" Ask Lika. Alan shook his head.

"What happened Mom.Say!" Alan was curious. Then Lika opened her phone and showed Alan the mysterious message she received last night. Alan was a little surprised.

"Oh my goodness, this is like a terror..." Said Alan.

"Yes sir.mah before the father came, I saw like someone was observing this house.I was afraid sir.fear this is related to children..." Clearly Lika with a face full of worry.

"Please calm down Mom...Wouldn't you tell me the same story, Ricky?" Alan's Advice. Lika quickly shook her head.

"No sir, tomorrow morning Mr. Ricky has come.I'm afraid that if I tell him now he will be shocked and keep thinking with his children, so that it will interfere with his work..." Lika. Alan gave a long sigh.

"Hm....It's unexpected that Miss Lika is very attentive with Mr. Ricky..." Said Alan.

"That's not so, Mr. Alan.toh later if he comes home I will also definitely tell him...for this case, about Mr. Alan know who did it?" Ask Lika. Alan seemed to think.

"Kalo logically...who is most likely to do that is the biological mother of the children...because she has a clear reason..oya....why did the mother not call the mobile number?" Alan asked back.

"Already sir.but the number on the phone is not active.it was active but not lifted.it looks like a disposable number.. because that number was different from the first number Kezia and Nando had with their mother..." Obviously Lika.

"If it is true who did his mother.Why did he not come well to ask permission to borrow children...no one can break a child's relationship with their birth mother..."

"But Mr. Ricky does not allow anyone including the biological mother of children to meet with children..."

"Let me help you investigate this case, ma'am..take it easy, ma'am.I like something that smells of mystery he he he..." Alan chuckles. Suddenly from the inside of Kezia and Nando's house had already rushed out.

"Sir Alan didn't come to say anything?" Chirp Nando.

"Kezia's...Nando.ayok invite Mr. Alan to go inside.have wanted magrib..we just play inside ya..." Sergah Lika while returning to lead the children into the house, Alan just tailed behind following him. Then the door of the house is closed and in the lock.
