Chiyome felt heavy telling.but it was an obligation.the woman sighed and began to tell stories. "I didn't think it was the last day we saw them. As usual, Brother Ais and Bakri drove Saburo to school." chiyome said that her son's name was Japanese so Kameie could understand. "After that, news about them we no longer know.later Saburo story that Bakri Kak at that time did not have much efficacy on him. plus Kak Ais he said hugged him so tightly... Saburo thought that maybe he had an unintentional mistake that made his uminya hug and cry.but Kak Ais refused and just continued to hug while crying."


Chiyome stopped her story for a moment and took a deep breath. Kameie looked at him in a sitting style similar to a samurai general who was leading the war title.


"Saburo called the two of them what was it?" ask Kameie.


"Umi and Abi. It's a call in Arabic which means my mother and my father. Indeed Kak Ais and Kak Bakri love Saburo so much that Saburo calls them by that call." answer Chiyome.


Soon Mariana appeared and as soon as she saw Fitri, the woman was hysterical and ran to the yard and hugged Fitri.


"I'm sorry.I'm sorry.." sedu Mariana. "I'm a useless mother! our son is dead. I can't take care of him... Fitri..I'm sorry..you can kill me! kill me, Fitri. I'm a useless old man!" the woman wailed and Fitri further tightened his embrace.The two women were crying and both lamenting.


Kameie lowered her head and closed her eyes, letting the two drops flood her cheeks, but, as a man, it was a challenge. after the otu he looked up and wiped away the two traces of tears flowing and looked at the dissolved Chiyome until he again cried as he pleased. Kenzie swept his wife's shoulders and provided moral reinforcement.


Kameie took a deep breath and looked at Chiyome. "Forward.." she asked.


this time, however, Adnan did the talking. "I got a bad feeling when Kenzie called me, asked where Aisyah was. I said, Ais hasn't been here yet and Kenzie's voice sounded nervous.I suspected and we decided to go to Lasantu Residence, I said, picking up information from Kenzie, it turns out there is Trias too. I urge Kenzie to tell me everything. And then I know, my son and daughter-in-law did not see any news this day. I got more agitated when my grandson Sandiaga woke up and cried.he dreamed that Bakri was tied to a pole and Ais while being tortured by someone unknown..."


"Wait," interrupted Kameie. "Who's Sandiaga?"


"Saburo.." said Adnan. "I mean, Saburo had nightmares about them. So I asked Chiyome to look after my wife and Sandiaga. Then me, Kenzie and Trias rushed to track Ais and Bakri's whereabouts."


"Where was he found?" ask Kameie.


"Digudang tua in Tanjung Keramat area, the southernmost region in the western part of Gorontalo. Bakri was killed by a bullet. and Ais.." said Adnan stuck, unable to continue his story.


"Why Ayesha?!" hardik Kameie with clenched hands.


"Otoosan.." reproved Chiyome with trembling.


Adnan. "Don't tell me to tell you this." the man cried and fell on the ground. "I can't tell you any further." he said softly amid the sedu sedu.


Kameie got up and gripped the collar of Adnan's clothes, forcing him to stand up. with an angry face and slick eyes he urged. "He's our son, Adnan! tell me! HOW DID HE DIE?!!" kameie shouted hysterically.


"Otoosan.. don't force Papa to speak." chiyome said, "Let me tell the story."


Kameie releases her grip on Adnan's clothes.The Japanese man looks at his daughter. "Tell me!" her door.


"Sir Ais was killed by sexual violence, Otoosan was raped so many times that her genitals were damaged and Kak Ais was killed because of it" Chiyome replied trembling.


immediately boisterous in the tent.Mantulangi family members and the surrounding residents are instigated emotions and they curse in Gorontalo language.Even among them directly speak in Gorontalo language to do the terrorizing to the rapist.


AAARRRRRRGGGHHH..... BRAKKKK!!!!


Kameie immediately roared furiously and grabbed the chair she had been sitting on and slammed it hard to the ground.The plastic chair was smashed to pieces by a loud impact mixed with a deep burst of energy that came out through the slam.


Fitri immediately semaput in the arms of Mariana.The woman was surprised. "Fitr?! Fitri?! Fitri?!" mariana exclaimed to pat Fitri on the cheek but the woman was also unconscious. Mariana lamenting lago. "Dooooohhhh Fitri.. Don't make us more guilty with your fainting... wake up Fitri!!!! banguuunnn... ooooohhh Fitri.." lamented Mariana.


some residents helped carry the woman into the house followed by Mariana who was still crying. Chiyome went inside also wanted to see the state of her mother who fainted due to not being able to withstand the sadness.


Kameie looked at Adnan who was standing still. "Who did it?! did you catch him?!" tagged Kameie.


"Trias is tracking him now? the boy is now a policeman. He will definitely find him." replied Adnan with a bitter smile.


"Bapu.." said the voice on the door of the yard.


all turned to see a little boy who stood holding a broomstick.The child then stepped and stared for a moment at Kameie then looked at Adnan.in front of Adnan, the boy asked.


"Why is Bapu crying?" ask the boy who is none other than Sandiaga (Saburo Koga Mochizuki).


Adnan just smiled and shook his head. Sandiaga looked at Kameie and directly brandished the end of the broomstick, looking at the genyosha man with a sharp gaze.


"You made Bapu cry? you don't pity to see us while we grieve?" reprimand Sandiaga with an intimidating tone.


Adnan knelt on Sandiaga's shoulder.The boy turned to look at him. Adnan smiled in the middle of his eyes that were still wet with tears.


"Father is okay, son." replied Adnan. "Well, welcome your grandfather from Japan" Adnan nodded his head at Kameie.


hearing that word, Kameie thundered and looked at Sandiaga with a haru look. "Watashi no mago." he hissed with eyes filled with tears again.


Sandiaga turned to look at Kameie. Now Kameie can see that his grandson's face is similar to Chiyome's face just looks in masculine form.The man kneels.


"Are you... My papa?" ask Sandiaga.


"Yes, Saburo..it's your father... from Japan.." Kenzie chimps with haru. Sandiaga looked at his father. Kenzie nodded his head in strengthening his opinion. Sandiaga looked back at Kameie.


"Father.." said Sandiaga and the boy's eyes glazed over.


Sandiaga suddenly cried and ran to hug Kameie. The Japanese man hugged his grandson tightly.he shed his tears once again and bit his lips trying to hold back from crying out.


"Pity Abi and Umi Bapu... Bapu.." sedu Sandiaga in the middle of his arms.


Kameie nodded as she continued to bite her lips. "Father knows... Bapu knows.." he said sweeping his back of the boy.


local residents and members of the Mantulangi family were moved and melted his tears hearing the curses of a grandson to his grandfather. Kameie opened her reddened eyes as the saga looked at Adnan.it tightened her jaw.


"Sure up!!! you caught it!!!" kameie Pinta. "If I could find him, I would have covered him alive." Kameie said in a very angry voice.


Adnan nodded withdrawing his sobbing then wiped away his tears. "Surely, Kameie...for sure!!! I won't let him live!" welcome Adnan.


Kameie hugged Sandiaga back tightly and then took off his embrace.The Japanese man looked at his grandson.


"Can you take Bapu to Umi's tomb?" kameie Pinta.


Sandiaga nodded and pulled Kameie's fingers to follow him.The man got up and stepped following Sandiaga.The two men of different ages walked down the path to the Mantulangi family cemetery.


soon the two arrived. Sandiaga released the handle of Kameie and the boy ran ahead in front of the two new tombs, with the flower beds beginning to dry up, Sandiaga stood up.


"Permy... Abi... Sandiaga returned again, but this time brought Bapu.


Kameie arrived at the two tombs.the man then sat down and poured out his cries.His head lowered and his fingers clenched, his body trembled.The man cried without making his voice. Sandiaga who saw Kameie cry then swept her shoulders.


"Bapu.. don't be sad anymore. If Bapu is sad, Umi and Abi will not be calm buried." reprimanded Sandiaga resuscitated Kameie. the man opened his eyes and looked up at the newly carved tombstone.


"Brook... Otoosan apologizes. can't take care of you..." Kameie stopped and sobbed again. "But don't worry. Otoosan will make sure that person, will not survive.if not Otoosan who will silence him... Chiyome will silence him..."


Kameie tightened her jaw. her gaze again circulated and found the tomb of Bapu Ridhwan Mantulangi right on the side of the two centers. Kameie's emotions bubbled.


"Father!!!" he shouted loudly in Japanese. "I have never asked you for anything in this time! the Mochizuki family will demand blood from the perpetrator! if it wasn't me who did it, then Chiyome did it!!!" exclaiming Kameie, suddenly snatched his black shirt and dumped it on the ground.looks like a piece of his body decorated with Irezumi knit makes Sandiaga flabbergasted.


suddenly Kameie pulled out the tanto hidden behind his hip. The man stripped the small knife and sliced his own palm. blood flowed down his palm and the blade of the knife and paddled the ground on the side of Aisyah's tomb.


"Father...why did Bapu slice through Bapu's own palm? it means the same thing as hurting yourself... The Islamic religion forbids such a thing." - Sandiaga.


Kameie gasped.The little boy had dared to advise her.The genyosha man turned to look at his grandson.The man smiled then sheathed the knife and hid it back under his pants.


"That's a genyosha's oath, son." replied Kameie.


"What is Genyosha, Bapu?" ask Sandiaga.


Kameie understood that the child did not understand his bloodline very well, and it could be that Chiyome did hide it so that Sandiaga did not know his family history from the maternal line. Kameie smile.


"Your mother will answer when you ask her." replied Kameie.The man nodded firmly. Sandiaga looked at the crochet that adorned Kameie's body as if knowing what the boy was thinking, Kameie smiled.


"This is Irezumi, one of our customs as genyosha" Kameie said, touching Sandiaga's shoulders. "Belak, you must also decorate your body with this crochet."


Sandiaga silently digested his grandfather's words. Kameie then removed his grip on the child's shoulder and got up and took his clothes that were seen on the ground.he flicked it for a moment and then put it back on. His hands stretched out to Sandiaga.


"Let's go home.... Umi and Abimu have listened to Bapu's vows." take Kameie.


Sandiaga looked at the two centers. "Permy... Abi... Sandi and Bapu go home first huh? god willing, Sandi is here again tomorrow."


after saying the farewell sentence, Sandiaga stepped in to greet Kameie's helping hand and the two stepped out of the Mantulangi family's funeral.
