“Rio, don't go home..” Gracefully clasped Rio's arm tightly while staring with a pleading look.
“Gue should-“
“Please, please!! Don't stay with me,”
“Tomorrow still no test Nggun,”
“Then I come! Wherever you go I come!”
Rio also sighed hearing the Graceful plea. The guy looked towards Mr. Banyu, asking for approval. Mr. Banyu seemed to be sitting pensively on his sofa reluctantly.
Then he stared intently at Rio.
“Anggun, Rio must go home,” said Mr. Banyu.
“I'm coming with Rio home,”
“Can't be Graceful, Rio has his own life,”
“What about my life? If he doesn't exist-“
“If he doesn't have you why? Die off? You should be able to control your trauma.”
“Could be so at that time I die, Kan dad is not there.”
“You should have been dead a long time ago, and indeed you remember that time the father who saved you? Not really, right? Why about Rio do you remember?”
Gracefully looking at his father while agape, “I was 7 years old and it had been going on for a very long time! It's my duty to help me anyway!”
“And it is not the duty of Rio to indulge your selfishness now! He also has his own life!” Mr. Banyu stood up and approached Anggun. “You always made it difficult for others! Do you want to know what Rio should do when he gets home? Everyone you can be subordinates, you queen, we are just jongos, including father! So?!”
“Anggun silently looked up at his father.
“If you like Rio that much, you should think about his needs as well! The need! No more you, you keep winning! You ask now, you love Rio, Rionya love is not the same you?!”
“He was kissing me..”.
“Say like it? Or did he just kiss you out of empathy let you calm down and talk?!”
“Eh?”
Gracefully speechless.
Rio just stood leaning against the wall while staring at Mr. Banyu.
His gaze was just relaxed, not tense, not panicking.
In his heart he agreed with Mr. Banyu, but on the other hand, this time was not the right time to attack Anggun who was still plagued by Trauma.
But Mr. Banyu said so because he did not know what happened, also because he might not like the existence of Rio and the attitude of Graceful possessive and cheap impressed in front of people.
“Rio?” with nanar Anggun staring towards Rio.
Rio only returned his gaze, but was still silent. His face is expressionless.
“You... you like the same-“ Graceful does not forward the sentence.
The girl looked at Rio's face that turned cold and was impressed. Such a look of disdain as when he saw Rio during the debate.
Impressed not to care and... “Rio..” Gracefully stood facing Rio while dumbstruck.
“Kan, I told you that you feel important. It's not that Dad doesn't care about your suffering. Yes, of course, my heart hurts so much to hear you being treated like an animal by those people. But, Graceful, here there is a father! When you liken dad to them? Equating the Police Officer here with the criminal? Do not generalize the origin of men must be evil! Dad took care of you all this time, was that not enough for you?”
The momentary silent atmosphere.
Graceful feeling very dizzy.
His mind was filled with things.
The pain is too big, too deep.
“Gue agrees with Mr. Banyu,” Rio said.
Gracefully took her breath.
“But be calm Nggun, I do not carelessly kiss girls. Even though I'm a jerk, but for girl problems, I still have ethics.”
“What..” Graceful rather limp, “What does that mean?”
Rio caught her arm and gently sat her down on the sofa.
“So like this,” said Rio while staring Anggun deeply.
The graceful view began to unfocus. But he tried to face Rio.
“Loving is not mastering. People have different ways of loving. In this case, you love in your own way and I love in my own way. People who love each other automatically understand each other,”
Graceful was still silent hearing Rio's explanation.
“Gue understands you are acting this way to me. But there are people who love you more than me. He's loved the same since you were born, Nggun. He spends his time just thinking about you, how you can grow well. You must be hurt if I refuse lo?”
“Don't-“ murmured Gracefully.
“Sick right?”
“Sick.”
“By the new lo reject someone. Yes that... Your own father. Mr. Banyu. From the beginning he was eager to get ahold of you. It even hit me. The one who feels the most lost is him. I wasn't. I just knew you,”
Gracefully looked at Rio with stunned.
It was as if a finger had touched his heart. God's finger is invisible. A little touched by his priceless reprimand. It was as if the blood flow directly flowed into the pulse. Opening the heart and eyes of darkness, facing reality with truth.
“Dad..” Gracefully start sobbing.
Realized that he was very wrong.
From the beginning, it was wrong.
He constantly blames God, blames others. Why should he, why not someone else. Why should he be alive, why should he be humiliated. Why he should be the most tortured.
“Gue is also dear lo, but I have just become a person who loves you. If your father was from 17 years ago, Nggun. Lo should be more priority than me,” whispered Rio while stroking Anggun's head.
Then the guy gave the code to Mr. Banyu to sit in front of Anggun.
And he came out of the graceful room.
**
In silence he lit his cigarette on the edge of the Family Room window.
“Ops boss..” his coolness in disbelief as he stared at Iptu Rayhan. “Many crazy things I've ever experienced, this is the craziest. Believe me anyway sir, people who are daily role models turned out to be the mastermind of the most unthinkable crime?”
“Hehe,” Iptu Rayhan standing in front of Rio while bitterly smiling. “I used to think, what the hell is the Almighty's Purpose of creating a lot of bad things? Is it right to show man His Greatness?”
“According to Mr Iptu?”
Iptu Rayhan shook his head, “Until now I have not found the answer. But someone once told me, God's scenario is not to be read and interpreted, but only to be played by us as the main character.”
“Each individual is the Main Cast,”
“Betul. Our brain cannot surpass Him. Instead of asking keep going crazy, better just go through everything and rest assured always With Him.”
“In His own way, he teaches us how to face the world. The case this time frankly makes me feel very small as a human,” Rio smoked his cigarette calmly.
