Audie Day's
After an hour on the way, Audie has now arrived in front of his house. Jack had gone down the busy highway today after leaving a few messages to Audie. That is, for Audie to immediately test his wound and get enough rest.
Audie steps like a zombie losing prey, she drags her rancel bag helplessly. At times Audie grimaced in pain when touching the scratches on the cheeks, chin and also on the forehead of the girl. Audie said a greeting before she finally entered the house. No one said so he had to repeat.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Audie's home!"
"Wa'alaikumussalam!" one woman said she was in the kitchen.
Without thinking much, Audie immediately headed to her room while enduring the pain in the bruised face. Linda came from the kitchen just to remind her daughter to have lunch.
"Luncheon dul..."
"Oh my God, deck! What's your face? Oh, my God, why is your hair so tangled? Astagfirullah.." worriedly Linda felt every inch of Audie's face.
"Argh... Pain, Mah!" Audie grimaced as Linda touched her wound.
The woman with two children immediately carried Audie to the sofa, her heart sliced at the wounds scattered all over her daughter's body. Linda took the P3K box before she finally treated the girl's wounds.
"Why do you think it's this, deck? You fight? Huh uh?" linda's chest was up and down, her breathing was congested just by looking at Audie's tragic state.
Many scratches dominated Audie's face, the blood from both corners of the girl's lips had dried up, her hair was tangled like it had not been combed for a month, her eyes were black and black like panda eyes, audie's gaze was sad as if it had not been fed for days so that it lost power. If you look around, he seemed to have just fought and fought each other with tigers.
Audie did not answer Linda's question, the pain in her heart had neutralized the pain Alea had scratched. The words that came out of Xavier's mouth were still ringing, making the heart that had been injured now increasingly gaping wide.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Irfan's home." Shouted a young man from the doorway. In his hand was a large enough parcel with a pink ribbon.
Irfan smiled when he saw his birthday brother sitting on the sofa with his mother, "happy birthday Adek Bang Irfan pal—" Irfan's mouth was silent, when he realized Audie's current condition.
"Astagfirullah, deck! What's your face?" worried Irfan, he approached worriedly.
He examined Audie's injuries that looked so familiar. He de javu scratched his nape using his index finger. In the next second, Irfan immediately checked his phone to see a photo that had just been sent by his girlfriend via WhatsApp a few minutes ago.
Linda's breath was heard clearly after finishing treating Audie's wounds, "Mama also does not know what happened with this child, asked instead of silence. Must have just finished a fight, right? Same who, same girl? Is it because of guys?" guess Linda's not careless.
Because often the woman watched the news on television a lot of bullying between girls and other girls just for fighting over one man.
Audie was still down, in fact he was not satisfied to let out a grain of tears. But because there is Irfan and also Linda next to him, Audie had to hold back. "A-Audie doesn't have a papa, Mah! Audie's fine, don't worry." The voice sounded hoarse and vibrated.
While Irfan, the net is still focused on turning off the screen of his phone. Where 15 minutes ago Alea just sent me a photo of herself with the same scratch scar as Audie.
"Can't do it, Dad?" asked Irfan scratching his nape for the second time.
"Why, Bang?" Linda, who had found Irfan confused, immediately asked her son.
Once again, Irfan noticed Audie's scar, "this.." then he showed me a photo of Alea's face with the same scar, "..Why can your wounds be the same, deck?" irfan asked suspiciously, his attention was diverted to Audie with his head still down. Likewise with Linda, he did not want to turn away from the face of the princess only puppet.
"Audie..." Call Linda soft, without coercion.
"Don't tell me if—" guess Irfan, but he doesn't dare to say something that is uncertain and not guaranteed the truth. Let Audie explain what happened.
Boldly and with eyes still flushed like blood, Audie got up from her seat. He passed by leaving Irfan and also Linda who were looking at him strangely. Just a few steps Audie immediately stopped both of her legs, "yes! Audie just fought Alea, brother's boyfriend." After saying that with a heavy heart and full of doubt, Audie immediately rushed off towards her room through the swivel stairs.
Irfan's pair of perfectly rounded eyes with a clear frown on his forehead, both of his eyebrows clinging to each other as well as Linda, not believing what Audie had said just now.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN, DECK?" shouted Irfan, but the tiny body figure had sauntered away until it was no longer visible.
Audie closed the pink wooden door aloud. He cried and threw his body on the bed until finally his body bounced. Audie cried so much, he was not wrong to have loved someone, but the way the girl was not right.
Audie cupped the pillow next to him and hugged the soft object tightly, so there were tears stuck smooth on the surface of the white pillow.
Audie stopped her sobbing when she heard a knock from outside.
"Adek, open the door, you want to talk to you." Irfan brought his earlobe closer to the door wall, but he did not hear any word from inside.
Irfan knocked again, "Audie, please open the door." Pinta Irfan with a higher octave of voice, more precisely snapping.
There was no answer at all from within, just silent, silent as there were no inhabitants. Irfan gave up, he grabbed her hair violently and then passed by massaging her temples. "It's ok, Brother will talk after you feel calm. Just rest for that! Brother bring gifts for you, it's your birthday, isn't it? Taro's brother at the door, yeah?!" Irfan shouted and immediately rushed away.
The occupants of the room were still crying. Until the sun that had been shining brightly had changed orange color and then slowly sank towards the western horizon. The sky has eaten the light, but tomorrow it will shine again.

Night threw the wind just like that made Audie's unraveling hair sway to and fro. After a half-daily sleep, Audie immediately moved on and chose to stay on the veranda. His gaze focused on the flickering lights of the city, while his mind was now empty. There was no life in him, his body alone stood upright while his soul had flown by the night hovering in the air. Until finally one incoming message from WhatsApp disperse the girl's daydream.
Audie tighten the jacket with an open zipper when the wind makes it cold, he does not intend to open a message from the phone logo application. Until the next second Audie was disturbed when many messages arrived so that the notification of his phone did not stop sounding.
Audie clucked lazily then reached into his jacket pocket, opened the green application and got many birthday greetings for him scattered there. Either from private chats or even groups. One of them was a group created under the name of the group, "his protege Mr. Xavier". Who else made that name if not Arini the girl calar, because she also included admin in the group created by Xavier.
The first message Audie opened was a group named "his protege Mr. Xavier". There's a lot of birthday wishes out there with funny stickers. From Lovely, Arini, Zayn, Yuda or even Jack. Not just a birthday, but a long do'a along the way. Of course, the person who is eager to write the sentences do'a is Jack himself and two friends Audie since sitting in the bench of Junior High School, namely Indah and Arini.

Audie laughed amusedly at the contents of the chat from his friends. Finally, the girl was still able to smile even for a few seconds before she finally returned moody when Xavier joined their group.
Mr. Xavier
This group is made to learn, not for the others what else to play around with.
20.12
It was true, being happy was too short, as short as winking. Audie smiled wryly, only then he could laugh and Xavier instead made the clouds that had been bright back fog black.

Exquisitely
Yes, Sir! Just wanted to say congratulations. Don't be too serious, sir? the innards are angry mulu.
20.13
Mr. Xavier
You can chat privately or you can create your own group. Once again I reiterate, this group is only to discuss the material, there is nothing else especially just to say happy birthday is not important.
20.15
Yuda just wanted to join the chat, but Xavier immediately deleted Arini so the admin and all members can not send messages except Xavier alone. Really, I'm sorry about this tutor.
There was regret in Audie's heart for opening the group. Had he not checked his notifications, perhaps his heart would have been fine and would not have been this injured. Audie's cry broke out at night with the star. This was the first time he loved someone so deeply and this was the first time he felt the deepest pain.
Audie's cry did not want to stop even though out there a woman he called Mama was knocking on the door several times while shouting her name. The injured girl did not want to say, she rubbed her snot and tears using her jacket sleeve. He was as unwilling as to then again break the sunyinya night along with the breeze.
"Audie! Open the door, deck. Don't make your mom worry about your situation. Papa wants to talk too, why don't you get a phone call from, Papa?"
"Open, deck. You haven't eaten since noon." Linda who did not stop knocking on the door was more and more anxious because there was no speech from inside the room.
Linda lowered her head, she exhaled a long breath. This time, he failed to take care of his daughter. He also failed to coax Audie out of the room, which meant Audie also did not want to meet him.
"Mama has prepared a birthday cake, the candle has also been likened to Bang Irfan. Emang you do not pity Mama, far away the day Mama has prepared your birthday this loh. Mama please, don't disappoint Mama, deck."
Audie heard Linda's screams from outside the room. Little by little his heart began to move, he felt pity with Linda. Audie knew, surely her mother had been very worried about her, and Audie should not have done such a thing.
Before opening the door, clean the remaining snot and tears that stick to his face, then Audie opened the door and found Linda was up in front of the room door.
"M-Sorry Audie Mah, it's been a worry for you!" audie said while looking down, he did not dare to look at Linda's face, because there were still traces of tears there.
Linda did not budge, hugging the little girl while stroking the soft samurai long Audie. He kissed Audie's forehead until he felt calm.
"Come, Audie has to blow the candles, Bang Irfan and the others are already nmugguin below." Linda said, both palms pressed on Audie's cheeks making the girl quite difficult to talk and breathe.
"Bang Irfan and the others? who's the other one, Mah?" audie's forehead wrinkled faintly.
"Udah, come with me. You'll know later." Linda held Audie's hand like a friend, inviting her down.
Arriving at the bottom floor of the house, Audie was quite stunned when he saw five creatures that were no stranger to him. "Arini, Lovely, Zayn, Yuda and Jack why are you here?" tanya Audie, passing on her best friend one by one.
"Well, why was my name the last one called? Smells of injustice here!" muttered Jack.
"It's not..." Audie paused her sentence, "..why not while chatting in the group chat was you guys already here?" guess later.
Lovely nodded furiously while showing off her neatly arranged rows of teeth, "yes, why?"
"Where are you from, Audie? we-we've been waiting here a long time." Yuda was upset.
"Lo... cry out?" guess Zayn at the sight of Audie's perfectly swollen eye pouch.
Audie shook her head quickly, "no, I just woke up from this afternoon, so my eyes are swollen gini."
"FROM NOON???" ask them all in unison. Maybe tomorrow-tomorrow they'll be the choir.
"Lo man what supernatural creature, Audie? Moleons from day until night like this." Arini patted her eel.
"Already, pity Audie, it's his birthday so don't be made more depressed that way." Jack's advice, because he already knows why Audie seems not excited tonight. And he also knows why Audie's eye bags are so swollen like an art, of course, because crying all day is not because of sleeping all day.
"Come-ayo, time to blow out the candles," Linda invited, all around the cake decorated with two candles. Birthday chants echo in every corner of the room. After completion, Audie then showed both hands praying, not too long just a few seconds before finally the candle that was lit has now been extinguished after Audie blew it.
"Yeah... Happy Birth Day, friend!" exclaim Indah then kiss the cheek Audie on the right.
"Wuahhh. I also want dong," said Jack suddenly, making the attention of everyone who was there to him, not least Mother Audie.
Audie's forehead creased faintly, "what desire? A cake?" guess it.
Jack shook his head, "a wonderful Audie kayak kisser just now," Jack said before a hard slap landed. Irfan patted both his hands satisfied, as his slap hit the target.
"Jeez Bang Irfan, my forehead is not a mosquito, play slap-slap alone." Whimper Jack.
"Eat him, the talk is guarded. Noh, mending you kiss the wall. Maybe the wall wants to date you." Irfan hit a wall not far behind him so he could still reach.
Everyone laughed, even Audie laughed. For a moment, he forgot the wound, the wound he would remember before going to sleep. Only for a while he was happy, then the next will be back to how it was.

"Your prospective daughter-in-law is saying yes, Auntie." Said Jack, his hand immediately fended off Irfan's hand that almost slapped his eel.
"Zayn pamit, Auntie.." - Zayn.
"Yuda's good-bye too, Auntie!" Yuda kissed the back of Linda's hand as did her two friends.
Linda nodded, her lips smiling, "yes-yes, thank you so much for celebrating Audie's birthday."
"Together, pretty aunt." Zayn and Yuda said together. As for Jack, his gaze looked at the room of a girl on the second floor.
"Why, Jackey?" ask Linda.
Jack's breath sounded lethargic, "not fair deh Aunt, same time Arini was allowed to sleep in Audie's room, Jackey's will also want."
"One child, go home? Don't let me kick your ass Jack." Threat Irfan.
Jack looked at Irfan cynically, "very fierce. Yuk Zayn Yuda, we're home."
Zayn and Yuda said they rushed to where their motorcycles were parked.
Before Jack actually drove off his motorcycle, he unharmed as he shouted, "TODAY PROSPECTIVE IN-LAWS, GREETINGS SAMA AUDIE, YAH!"
Platkk ....
A pair of flip-flops landed on Jack's forehead riding on a motorcycle with one leg dragging on the ground.
"No, rasain..." Shouted Irfan proudly, then he ran to take back his flip-flops, because the sandals were his favorite flip-flops. As for Linda, the woman was just bobbing heads on the porch of the house.
...🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️...
..."To this day, let us chat with wounds, a new tomorrow with likes." ...
