Still on the phone.
[The owner of this cell phone is shown to be in the hotel room where the drug party took place. The suspect is now being held at the police station]
[Good, Sir. Thanks for the information]
"Anita why, Mas?" ask Marni shortly after Keenan ended the conversation on the phone.
"Mother was arrested by the police, Mbok."
"Why can Madam be caught by the police?"
"Mother was arrested for having a drug party in a hotel room."
"Astaghfirullah."
"The objects Mbok found in the mother's room are actually containers of used drugs along with the syringe. Now I have to see my mom at the police station. If Gibran wakes up later, tell him to come there."
"Good, Mas."
"I go first, Assalamu'alaikum."
"Getishalight."
Arriving at the police station.
"Please release me, son. I was just being framed" the mother told Keenan.
Keenan smiled bitterly.
"I don't believe what Mom said."
"Whatchu mean? How could you possibly do this bo*oh act?" protest the mother.
"Mom can explain this? Mbok Marni found it in Mom's room." Keenan took out the plastic bag and showed it to his mother.
"These things are not my mother's."
"So, I'd like to tell you if Marni's mom is lying?"
Anita fell silent and lowered her face.
"Why did Mom do this? I know, don't you? The punishments imposed for both dealers and drug users are equally severe?"
After many times denying, Anita finally admitted her actions.
"I'm sorry, son. Mother's busyness is too much. I just follow the advice of my mother's friends so that the mother's body is always fit and not easily tired. But it turns out that mom was addicted," she said.
"There is no justification for the misuse of the prohibited goods."
"Mother please release mother from this place."
"Sorry, Mom. As good citizens, we must obey the law. What you did was wrong, and you have to take responsibility for what you did."
"But, Son. Mum's just a victim here."
"Hasn't there been so many cases of abuse of the prohibited goods? The punishment they received was not light. Why do you still dare to try it?"
"Mom's sorry, son. It has disappointed you," said Anita.
"Not just me. Mom also let Gibran, dad, and Mbok Marni down."
"You didn't tell your dad, did you?"
"Without telling you, Dad would've known. News of Mom's arrest and that of Mom's friends must have been widely circulated on social media."
"Mom's sorry to do this."
"Mas Yudha?"
"After hearing this news I immediately rolled out of the city. Tell me if this arrest is a mistake."
"I'm sorry, Mas" said Anita Parau.
"It's not a mistake, Dad. It was precisely the mother who had done wrong because the mother was found in the hotel room." Keenan.
"Why are you doing this, Anita?
"I'm sorry, Mas. I'm tempted by the seduction of my friends."
"Since when did you use that har*m item?" ask Yudha.
"It's been almost five years" Anita replied with a lethargic down face.
"What kind of husband am I? I didn't realize my wife had been entangled in that ha*am stuff for so long."
"Mas don't blame yourself. What happened to me because of my own fault."
"I will apply for rehabilitation with the police" Yudha said.
"Thank you, Mum. They care about me."
"I just don't want Yudha Mandala's good name to be ruined because his wife is a prisoner."
"May the police grant the father's request that the mother undergo rehabilitation" Keenan said.
"Oh yeah, where's your brother? Didn't he come here?"
"Sister at home. He didn't come home last night and came back drunk."
"The kid's just annoying!" gerutu Yudha's.
"Sorry, the visitation time is up. I had to take the prisoner inside the cell" the officer said, wearing iron handcuffs on both Anita's wrists.
"How long will the sentence be on my wife, ma'am?"
"The length of the sentence depends on how severe the case that befell the prisoner is. Excuse me." The officer took Anita out of the visiting room.
"We go home now" said Yudha. Keenan nodded in agreement.
Both of them left the police station.
Keenan was just about to enter his car when suddenly his net caught a cell phone that had fallen in the parking area.
"This phone must belong to that man."
The man in question was someone who had just parked his motorcycle in that place. Keenan rushed to retrieve the phone to be handed back to the owner. Accidentally one of his index fingers pressed one of the buttons to make the phone screen turn on and of course showed the image attached as wallpaper.
"It looks like this kid's face is no stranger to me" he murmured.
