"Let's meet. I'll send you the address." Phone's closed. Faris looked at Sunday who had also been like wanting to know the phone from whom he received until his face was as serious as that. Faris, who could read the look on Sunday's face, approached the girl again.
"I'm going to meet a friend."
"Who?"
"Some, I think it's very important so it's with a heavy heart that I'll have to miss the moment to take you home."
"Who?" Sunday began to be curious because Faris seemed to be covering something from him.
"Is she Gina?" Sunday narrowed his eyes.
"Not... Wasn't... Not Gina. It's someone else."
"Then who?" Sunday began to get anxious because Faris seemed to want to play guessing.
"Later, once this business is over I'll see you."
"really?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"All right..." Sunday had to obey Faris' wishes.
"I like you getting possessive."
"Who is possessive?"
"What you just did." Faris.
"It's not possessive but rather because I'm curious." Sunday was acting indifferent.
"Well, whatever it is I like your curiosity." Faris rubs her Sunday hair.
"I'll go first. Tomorrow I come to your house. Make sure you're there."
"Tomorrow I'll start working."
"Can't." Answer Faris quickly. "You should rest well enough. Even though the doctor said the wound on your head wasn't serious enough and your lungs were smoke-free, you had to convince your body to get back to work."
"Ahh, it turns out you're more protective than mom."
"of course. I'm your boss. I don't want to be sued by the Employment Agency for ruthlessly hiring a sick employee."
"I feel better."
"can't. I told you not to, yes, no."
"Said Lita when she came here she missed working with me so much."
"Hey, is your boyfriend Lita or me?" Faris until glared as she said that.
"All right. all right. I'm your girlfriend."
"So come with me if you don't want me to retire early."
"Oh my God, you're so authoritarian. Play fire as good as your bidat. You're the boss." Sunday pouting.
"That's why you need to be nice to me." Faris smiled at jumawa.
"Yes, I'm going first. Hope you recover soon." Before turning around and heading for the door, Faris commented a sweet smile to Sunday.
Sunday felt something was hidden Faris but what it was he did not know. Sunday is just hoping that's a good thing. As a girlfriend, Sunday does have a little bit of suspicion. But then remember how Faris tried to convince him that he was not the old Faris and Sunday had given him confidence so his feelings were a little calm.
While driving Faris was still thinking about who called him. And as important as what information he wants to convey to invite him to meet in a place that he thinks is quiet. Until finally Faris arrived at the place as written on the address that the person sent. Faris parked her car next to an empty, high-fenced building. There was no sign of life there. He was only alone.
Faris got out of her car and looked around. Then he looked back at the address listed in the message box. Right address here. But where is the existence of the person who invited him to meet? Why hasn't he appeared yet? Faris was a little regretful for just trusting that person's phone. Why think now if it was possible that the phone was from a prankster who wanted to take advantage of the situation to work on it.
Faris was determined to wait for him for another 15 minutes. The dark and quiet atmosphere makes the atmosphere around it look creepy. Who wants to meet in such a place must be very guarded secret that he wants to convey. Even if this is just a prankster act, surely he is a person who has a very high level of cruelty due to being missed ignorant
It wasn't until 15 minutes before Faris waited, there was a light approaching and it was like the spotlights of a car on the cobbled street where Faris parked his car. The closer Faris saw a car walking towards him and the driver parked behind Faris' car.
Car lights out engine signs turned off. Someone opened the car door and saw a woman in high heels get out of there. The dark atmosphere made Faris' vision limited by the distance between them.
"How are you, Ris?" Greet the woman who was in front of Faris now.
"You???" Faris frowned trying to recognize the person in front of her.
"You forgot about me?" The woman smiled.
"But we haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's only natural that you don't recognize me."
"For a moment, let me remember." Faris tried to open her memory again.
"IPA class at the far corner." The woman tried to give a clue.
"IPA Class 1?"
"Yes." Yeah."
Kelaa IPA 1 is her class when she sits in the 3rd grade of High School. Classes also occupied by Desy.
"You... Ratna?" Faris recalled a face similar to the one in front of her.
"Yes, you're right." The woman named Ratna smiled happily.
"It turns out your memory isn't too bad."
"Well, how I almost forgot about you. How long have we not seen each other?"
"I don't think since graduating High School we've seen each other."
"I think so."
Faris looked as if Ratna had just taken a heavy breath. Faris felt that something was strange to Ratna.
"So, how? Was there anything I missed at our school?" Faris began to wonder what information Ratna had to ask her to meet.
"Oh that. I saw you on tv and my guilt really has to end here." Ratna said.
"What do you mean?" Faris was astonished.
"At that time I was looking for a comfortable place to study because after the break there was a repetition of physics, right?" Ratna is like asking Faris to remember an incident.
"So, I was near a water-tandon on the roof. Then I heard two people talking. At first I didn't pay attention to it but the conversation has been a matter of debate for a long time. The debate between Desy and Gilang."
"Desy? And Gilang?" Faris was even more shocked when she heard the name Gilang. The name is known as Desy's ex-girlfriend.
"Yes, so that's the time..." Ratna started to tell stories
"I told you we're not getting back together, Lang."
"But you can't do that to me, Des."
"I can't, Lang."
"Is it because of Faris?" Gilang.
"No." Answer Desy briefly.
"It's because of him." Glazed looks angry now.
"Yes, it must be him. It must be because of him you can't take me back."
"Say, we're over. I can't be with you anymore."
"Impossible. You can't just forget me."
"We don't fit in, Lang. Didn't we agree to break up that time."
"But then I thought I still liked you."
"No Lang, I don't want to repeat it again. We force ourselves too much to fit in even though we are very different."
"I'll change, Des. I want to be what you want to be."
"No... No. gabe... No.." - No..." Gilang suddenly became hysterical after finding Desy could not take it back either.
"We have to get back together and be the perfect couple." Now Gilang even pulled Desy's shirt.
"Don't do this, Lang. You're hurting me."
"You chose it. I offered to love you but you refused. So don't blame me for turning around to hurt you." Gilang grinned.
"Take it off, Miss it." Desy tried to pull Gilang's hand which still grabbed him because now he felt like strangled.
"No, you have to accept me again and I can let go."
"Tell me. Have you gone mad." Desy began to cough because her throat felt choked.
"Yes, you're driving me crazy."
"Gi. lang.. le.. pas..." Desy's breathing began to growl. Finally Gilang released his grip violently so that Desy crashed and wobbled. But unfortunately Desy was too close to the edge of the building so that his body that was not balanced it caused his hind legs to hit the edge of the building that is not fenced and Desy freefall from there.
Ratna who saw that spontaneously shouted as panicked as Gilang who tried to reach Desy. But the incident was too fast that Gilang's hand could not reach Desy and finally Desi fell from the 3rd floor building.
A panicked and fearful Gilang approached the trembling Ratna seeing the tragic accident before her.
"You have to shut up." Threaten Crossed.
"If the cause of Desy's fall is known, you're the first person I'll destroy. After that your family will be destroyed as well." Gilang felt he could do that because he was the son of a powerful man in the city. Rich and influential. So if only to destroy the Ratna family whose father was only a PNS would have been very easy for him.
Because given that, all Ratna could do was nod in fear and cry in restraint.
"Remember my words. Don't let anyone know." Add Gilang with a sharp eye highlight turn it off. Then after that immediately Gilang got off the roof of the building and pretended nothing had happened. Then came Ratna, who was still trembling, following behind her with sobs.
When the ground floor looked hysterical students, some were panicking and some were afraid to see Desy lying in the middle of the field.
Ratna didn't even dare to go there. He chose to run to the bathroom and cry there but with a voice he was holding. He was scared and felt guilty. But he could do nothing but obey Gilang's words because he did not want his family to become victims.
"But didn't I hear from friends that you're finally married to Gilang?" Ask Faris in surprise.
"It was just a wedding on paper. We've never been husband and wife." Reply Ratna bitterly.
"Don't you find it strange to know that I'm from an ordinary family married to Gilang whose family is very respected?" Faris silent. Actually when he knew the news Faris had thought so but then he dismissed the thought because he thought that love sometimes does not know caste.
"She married me for being more free to watch over me. After all, he won't give me a chance to move let alone divulge the secret." Ratna.
"We are not husband and wife at all. He even married another woman behind me. I repeatedly wanted to get divorced from her but what was the fate of my parents and my younger siblings who were still in school. I'm worried about them if it's just because I'm past their futures are threatened." Ratna shed tears. Faris.
"Remain..." Call Faris to calm down.
"I'm sorry, Ris. All this time I couldn't defend you. I know everyone blames you and I can't do anything about it." Ratna's sobbing now.
"But now I can't take it anymore. All my life I can't even sleep in peace. I feel like Desy always comes with a moody face to me. I feel like Desy wants me to tell someone the truth. And seeing you as a scapegoat for Desy's departure, I'm even more convinced that I have to reveal this truth. Now I'm even ready to die." Ratna wiped her tears.
"I beg you, reveal this to the authorities." Ratna looked at Faris closely.
"But Ratna..." Faris could not believe Ratna said that. A wife from Gilang pleaded to reveal her husband's guilt.
🌸🌸🌸
Faris looked at Sunday sleeping in her room. Sit on the edge of Sunday's bed and watch the peaceful face of her lover. This afternoon he deliberately went out of the office to meet Sunday at his home.
Before long Sunday squirmed and slowly opened his eyes. It was shortened when he found Faris sitting on the edge of the bed looking at him gently. Sunday blinked his eyes to make sure he wasn't looking wrong.
"You're here?" Ask Sunday in a sound of waking up.
"Hmmm..."
"How long have you been here?" Ask Sunday again while taking a sitting position.
"Just now."
Sunday saw a clock on the wall of his room that pointed at 2pm.
"Hey boss, are you ditching?"
"Yes, because bosses are human too. Who sometimes want to ditch and can be tired if working continuously." Faris complained but then chuckled.
"You're really not an exemplary boss." Cibir Sunday and Faris only replied with a small laugh.
"How was your business last night?" Ask Sunday suddenly. Faris mangulas wry smile.
