Mute Witness
Tito's Writing'
December 8th, 2019
This morning is the weekend. I decided to go through #humahaja. The events that have happened to the Husain Family lately
it always drags me out of the house. I have indeed become a part of
that event, therefore, there is no reason for me to be sober.
However, this morning I chose to relax while reading a book in the room
my work. A novel I just bought two days ago. I
I almost forgot I had a novel. I found him when
planning to clean up my bag.
It was only a moment that I read it while smiling like a fool,
a message came in on my HP. I immediately grabbed it and read it.
Message brief.
“Kak, I want to talk about something important. Can you meet me at
place Mr Hakim?”
I answered briefly, “Good.”
I'm sure that's Ali's message.
I rushed immediately after. Change clothes immediately
snatching my bag containing only my diary and a pen. HP
I tucked it in my pants pocket and immediately walked away.
My mind moved wildly with my quick steps.
One thing I was really hoping for..
I want to be useful this time..!
I went through a long journey haunted by the feeling of
curious. Now I was standing in front of the room where I met
with SMS child. After sighing softly, I started to open the door
and step in.
“Excuse me.” Sapaku while giving a glance around the room.
My steps stopped for a moment and looked straight ahead in surprise.
Loh?!
“Kak Tito’, login.” Greet the boy cheerfully.
“Ari? Where is Ali?” I was confused while giving a glance
again, look at every corner of the room.
“Ah.. Ali is busy. So can't come.” Reply Ari while
smilingly.
What reason is that?!
We all know they are a very difficult pair of leaders
separated. To the extent that the Advisory Board and the perpetrators of the crime are made
frustrations.
But these?
What makes Ali not visit the Judge? And why Ari
instead of helping her and choosing to meet me here?
“Sit kak.” Said Ari.
His attitude has now turned serious.
“What's up?” I asked him after sitting right in front of him.
“Eh Tito’, have you come?” The judge just came out of the room
little approached us.
I stood up to greet and to greet him. To be honest, I'm very
curious about the current situation.
What the hell is going on?
What does Ari want to talk to me about?
What is the relationship between Ari and Ali now?
Where is the position of the Judge if the two are in conflict?
Wild thoughts come back to haunt me. Curiosity will all
I want to answer that question immediately. And the thing that bothers me so much when
this is, what kind of role will I go through after this?
“Something has happened, Brother Tito’.” The opening words of Ari with
the sad expression managed to make me anxious.
“Then.. Do I deserve to know all that?” Me ask carefully.
Given this kind of great trust by the top brass of the Husain Family
makes me uncomfortable. What are my specialties among the Advisory Council?
“I trust Sister Tito’.” Ari said while looking straight at me.
“What's up?” I instantly became awkward.
I deserve to gain trust after being involved in
crimes against his family?
“Someone threatens Ali kak.”
His words succeeded in surprising me. I became very worried.
Could Ali have experienced what I had?
“Si..who?” Tanyaku.
I hope the menace isn't the one I'm thinking about. If
right, I'm worried, not even Ali can handle it.
Ari answered exactly as I feared.
“Yes.. God.”
I lowered my head and covered my face with both hands
frustrated to hear it. For a moment, I could not say
anything at all.
“Ali didn't know I knew the threat, Kak.” Ari's coming
bowed and said weakly, “The threat has something to do with me.”
I guessed!
“I don't want to burden Ali any further. I want to help her, Brother.”
He said again, looking straight at me.
“Then.. You need my help?” I try to understand what
thought of.
Ari nodded.
To be honest, I don't even know, what kind of help can
done by someone like me.
“What should I do?” Me ask carefully.
“Seeing Ali's character, I'm sure she'll choose to save me,
Brother.” He said weakly, “He will definitely
Ari clearly held back her tears.
Ali's position must be very difficult. I know, because I'm in a position too
the same with him. Ali and I are faced with a difficult choice, choose
close people or surrender to the perpetrator!
“Then.. What are you going to do?” I asked full of search.
Could he be against Ali?
“I want to hang on to the initial opinion.” Sighs, “I want to
the mines remain returned to the government, Kak.”
“Ali threatened to keep mine in family?” Ask would like
ensure. Even if I knew, the answer would be yes.
“Iya, Brother.”
Holy jeez!!
If the mine remains in the hands of the Husayn family, the perpetrators will
it was easy to exploit the mine. In the end, there is no more
what's left for the people, the rightful owner of the mine!
The last few days, I breathed a little. I believe, Ali and
Ari is able to protect the property of the people. Who would have thought, Ali came
victim of threat. His position is now very difficult.
“So.. What's your plan?” My toot.
“Can big brother support me in family meeting later?”
Her request surprised me. That's a tough request. I
they are considered a threat. Lately, I've been trying hard
to keep my attitude.
But this time, I was asked to oppose them directly?!
What am I supposed to do?
“I know brother, it was a difficult decision.” Ari said weakly. Him
seems to understand my concerns.
“Kak Tito’ threatened too right?”
“Kak Adi is in danger right?”
His words made me fall deeper. That's all right. Matters
that's what I'm so scared of. If only I had taken a risk for myself
by oneself. Then I will take the decision to support him without hesitation.
“Y.. Just like Ali worried about me.” Sighing heavily.
“I'm the one in danger position if Ali chooses to oppose
they.”
“Wait.. How did you know about Adi?” Much
curious.
Ari laughed a little.
“Involuntary meeting, Kak.”
Ari began to laugh, “That time, Kak Adi came
family library. Actually, I wonder why Adi's sister was there.
It was Sunday, the library was not receiving visitors because it had to
cleaned.”
“Although Sunday, Ali and I still have to go to class
which is boring under the guidance of Mr. Great Master.” Ari laughs, “Because
sleepy, I'm going to the restroom. Not to the bathroom, I was
malleability.”
Highlight Ari's eyes now become serious, “At that time, I
see the strange gelagat from Adi.”
“White why?” I don't know why, I'm worried.
“She looks wobbly here and there like
don't want to be caught. And I saw him take the family history books.”
I nodded because I was so surprised. So, Adi
even been caught by the vice-leader of this family?
I squeezed my hand restlessly.
“Just relax Brother Tito’.” Ari laughed a little looking
my manner. “Since that time, Adi and I began to exchange information.
I promised him not to tell anyone his actions.”
“We decided to make friends.” Smile next.
I looked at Ari with great attention. Attempts
looking for lies there. But I didn't find it. He's telling the truth.
“Kak Adi knows that Kak Tito’ was threatened.”
I'm shocked. Did ya?
The shadow of Adi's face instantly flashed through my mind.
I want to feel like I squeezed that face, how dare he deal with Zen and
his boss. Yes.. Actually my boss too..
But hearing she was on good terms with Ari
it made me pull my lips and smile. At least, he's trying to make up for it
his mistakes in a better way.
“Tito’, your support for Ari means a lot
to him. His voice as vice-chairman was equivalent to Ali. If you are
help him from the government, then your opinion will surely be able to
considered.”
The judge who had been silent since then began to lift up
speakin. It seemed, she had indeed deliberately provided space for Ari to
expressing his wish to me.
I admit, the support I gave Ari will definitely be
it has a big influence.
“I don't want to force Brother Tito’. I know, Brother
Tito’ is in a difficult position.” Ari smiled.
“Think, Brother. Better talk to brother, too
Adi.”
I smiled clumsyly.
The meeting was over, before I even took it
decisional. I know, Ari didn't mean to force me.
Now I have a chance to choose.
