Rest

Chapter 54

After a long journey because it was a very long distance, Kriss finally arrived also in the hometown of Delia, where Mama Delia lived.

Kriss knows Mama Delia's house because Kriss often joins Delia home when they are off school.

Geck.. Geck.. Geck.. Kriss knocked on the door.

But no one responded from within. Never mind responding, even Kriss did not hear a sound from inside the house.

Kriss thinks Mama Delia must be on her way.

Kriss chose to wait for Mama Delia in the car while resting her body tired from driving.

Delia has two younger siblings. One became TKW in China and the other was still in junior high school and living in a dormitory. So in that house, Mama Delia just lives alone.

The clock showed at seven o'clock in the night, not feeling Kriss had been five hours asleep in the car.

"Eugh..." Kriss nodded while opening his eyes.

"Good night already!!" Kriss chuckled as he looked at the sky that had already turned dark.

Kriss quickly got out of the car and re-entered the terrace of Mama Delia's house, which was not fenced.

Geck.. Geck.. Geck. Kriss knocked on the door. But still no one responded.

"Squeaky. The porch lights are on, but there's no one." Kriss Mumbles. Because this afternoon he did not see the porch lights on.

Undeterred, Kriss knocked on the door again. But the result is still the same, no one responds.

Until finally there is a neighbor Mama Delia who saw Kriss in front of Mama Delia's house. And the neighbor was also given the trust by Mama Delia to turn on the porch lights if it was night and turn off if it was morning.

The neighbor approached Kriss.

"Eh.. You're not Delia's boyfriend?" Ask the middle-aged woman.

"Eh. i-iya Ma'am." Answer Kriss.

"Yes, Mom." Answer Kriss again.

"Well, you don't know that Delia's mom is in town? Delia's place?"

"Oh.to the city well ma'am. I don't know Mom. I just got back from Singapore." Reply Kriss with a slightly shocked face.

"Delia didn't know?"

"Don't tell Mom. I came suddenly too, to give you a surprise. I think Delia's here, because the last communication, Delia said she wanted to go home." Kriss replied lying.

"Oh..."

"So Delia doesn't have to go home?" Ask Kriss.

The middle-aged woman shook her head.

"Serus Mama Delia to the city in what order well?" Ask Kriss again. He wanted to extract information from the middle-aged woman.

"Lack of knowing too. But it's been over a month that Delia's mom is there. I never called again, I called her cell phone number. Call Delia's number to her son who works in China, but I don't have her number." Reply to the woman.

"Another month. Without news? Maybe her mom was there to attend Delia and Roy's wedding." Kriss murmured in the heart.

"Yes, Mom, thank you. Excuse me first." Pamit Kriss's.

"Eh.. Mom, you're going back to town, right?"

Kriss nodded his head.

"When you meet Delia or her Mama, please send a message from me about the electricity money of her house." Said the middle-aged woman.

Kriss nodded his head while smiling wryly. This woman did not know that Kriss was also looking for the whereabouts of Delia.

Seriate...
