Tama And Ratna

24. Tama's affair

The next morning the entire base was conducting security patrols. What caused this to be done was due to reports that a weapon was missing from its storage at the headquarters. As a result of this report Tama did not even have time to spend his breakfast and just left.

"Do an examination in the dorm area. Take care of Mr. Aji's residence, remember if one of the victims is here. If something happens I punish all of you," said Mr. Sabar gave instructions on the ground.

While in the office of Mr. Slamet, Tama and Nesya also participated in the investigation, "Most likely that person who stole it, he met you yesterday right? He entered your work space yesterday while your work space is close to the armory" Mr. Slamet told Tama.

"Have you checked really? Not because of a miscalculation?" ask Tama to a subordinate.

"I've recalculated several times and it's true we lost one short-barreled firearm."

"When is the possibility of disappearance?"

"Obviously overnight. When the last check was yesterday afternoon everything was still complete including the number of bullets and other weapons. But when picket officers went around this morning the lock on the barn was broken and when checked a firearm and 20 bullets were missing" he reported.

"If the thief does not get caught immediately or even has come out of the area we will get a big problem. If you don't want to get fired, find the culprit right away" Mr. Slamet said.

"The question is how did the mother break into the barn?" now Nesya is talking.

"If we assume her to be an ordinary mother, then this is impossible. Yes, you go to the information room and find out the identity of the mother as soon as possible. If necessary, ask the intel to help," Tama ordered.

"Ready, sir."

"Ji, you tell your wife first."

"Already sir, there were two enlisted men coming right when I left earlier. I asked them both to stand guard from inside. If indeed the motive is revenge, it is better not to attract the attention of the perpetrator."

"Bu Ratna must be scared. Wouldn't you rather go home and accompany her?" ask Mr. Slamet.

"It's been a consequence of her being a soldier's wife. After all, if I want to dispel her fears I have to solve this problem right away. Only then will his condition be safe, right?" said Tama.

"Your devotion Ji, Aji. I am proud of you. It is not unexpected that there are still young people who have a patriotism soul as big as you," said Mr. Slamet.

"Father overdoes."

"Sir Aji...!" Nesya barges in as Tama and Mr. Slamet prepare to leave following her to the information office.

"You're back too soon. What's up?" ask Mr. Slamet.

"Sir, I have obtained the identity of the perpetrator. But the problem is, the perpetrator is listed as one of the targets of military operations due to his participation in a separatist organization. I've also confirmed that this information is correct."

Shortly afterwards the sound of gunfire from the front door made Tama, Mr. Slamet and Nesya immediately ran towards the sound. Some helped secure the victims while the rest were on standby to surround the perpetrators from various directions.

Tama walked over and passed the circle of siege just like that, "You think by breaking into the police headquarters, you know, breaking into an armory and stealing a few bullets and a firearm is enough to become a provision for revenge? I already know your identity. You say your son is a good boy? You dream," Tama said with an icy gaze.

"You guys caught him. You're the ones who got him sentenced to death. You guys are looking for trouble with me. Was it my fault for taking my revenge?"

"Then I return the sentence. I am the husband of the victim of your son's crime. I lost my daughter. If I want revenge you can't blame me. There are also dozens of other families out there who have lost their children or family members due to the dark business done by your son. Do I need to gather them all to avenge you?" tama made the perpetrator's hand shake.

That's when Mr. Slamet gave the code to the one standing behind the perpetrator. The perpetrator was immediately arrested and immediately locked up. For the quick response of the members, the perpetrators were not to create a riot so that the security level of the headquarters could be immediately lowered. The two people who had been guarding at Tama's house had also been saying goodbye.

...***...

Even if the problem is solved, but still the chaos does not stop. This time it was Tama's turn to work overtime to make additional reports on the events that occurred. Already reports of arrests yesterday is not finished he worked on, now his work has increased 2x.

"I'm sorry I didn't come home tonight" Tama said as she called Ratna.

"Where's dinner?" ask Ratna.

"No.., hehe," Tama chuckled. He did not want to add work because he lied to Ratna because he would immediately know that Tama lied so he better confess. Ratna was more fearsome than her commander so she always surrendered in the presence of Adiratna.

"You want to be in the dinner anter? I dried your favorite potatoes, Mas" said Ratna.

"Ohh very deck, which is a lot of packaging. Original Mas laper really."

"Nelangsa temen uripmu Mas.., Mas..," said Ratna laughing at Tama.

"Uripmu luwih melas Dek, due bojo rich Mas," said Tama trying to use Javanese.

Ratna's laughter disappeared immediately after hearing Tama's strange accent when using Java. No matter which person he is, but because he grew up in Jakarta so he is not able to speak Javanese at all, but strangely he also can not speak Betawi or Sundanese. The point is there is no Regional Language that Tama mastered. The city's children's logs are too thick attached and will only disappear if he uses standard Indonesian.

"Mas.., no support. You don't have to talk about Java. Weird."

"Yes want to be able to Dek, let's not mulu meledek same as your favorite micin spice," said Tama.

Finished with her cooking, Ratna went to the kitchen to wrap up dinner for Tama. Both of his hands were busy picking up Tama's supply box from the top shelf. The medium-sized blue box consists of 3 layers. Ratna fill it with rice in the bottom row, then side dish fried chicken in the middle, also do not forget dry potatoes meet the topmost arrangement. Finished arranging the food, Ratna first aerate it so as not to water when closed later.

"Excuse me, can I see Mr Aji?" ratna asked the one sitting at the front desk.

"Sorry who?" tanyakanya.

"By Mom, I can. Dad's in his office. You just go in" replied the man sitting next to the man.

"Who?" ask this guy still curious.

"I am Mrs Ratna, Mr. Aji's wife. Want to send dinner for you" Ratna explained.

"Uwaduh Ma'am, sorry I don't know. I'm sorry Mom I'm new because I don't understand who it is."

"It's okay, I understand. Then excuse me."

Ratna then decided to head to Tama's office. During his walk down the hallway, several people he met greeted him so politely. No matter the rank of Tama, Ratna still answered all the greetings politely. Arriving in front of Tama's room, he knocked on her door.

"Please enter" replied a voice from within.

"Excuse me, would like to meet Mr. Aji. Does he exist?" ask Ratna.

"There's no Mr. Aji here, there's Mr. Tama. How, want to keep nyari Pak Aji or want to see me?" tanya Tama was still sitting at her desk.

This model of Aji's workspace is not a single room just for her own. The model is not much different from Ratna's workspace in the hospital. It consists of several tables arranged in rows, and a set of table chairs also a small pantry on the right side. Getting such a funny sentence was actually common for Ratna, but she was still embarrassed to find that Tama was not alone. There are also Mr. Leo, Mr. Slamet, Patience, and Nesya.

"Eh there's Mrs Ratna, come in please," said Nesya.

"Thank you," replied Ratna politely.

"Yes, you know what's more extreme than throwing a grenade?" ask Mr. Slamet.

"What tuh?"

"See Aji again with his wife. Extreme for your rich singles," said Mr. Slamet again followed by laughter from Mr. Leo and Mr. Patience as well.

"Emang sir, really hurt until the heart," replied Nesya.

"Weh sir, yesterday I saw Nesya together with the new child. The power of light again we get an invitation, "god Tama.

"Ah Bang Aji is dead" said Nesya.

"Mr. No secret love, will you?" continued.

"What?" ask Ratna.

"Your husband cheated on Ma'am," said Nesya, making Tama who was drinking coffee choked in shock as well as the rest of the room.

"Heh. Where have I cheated, crazy have you!" tama quickly corrected.

"Checking? Same who? Here's the story," Ratna said.

"Hmm, you die Aji," said Patience.

"I once caught Bang Aji affectionately on the phone. But I don't know who, because the name of the contact is strange" said Nesya.

"Whose contact name is he?" ask Ratna to make sure.

"What microwave is wrong if not wrong. It's not clear if the picture is on a paper cap but it's pretty. From her voice is really beautiful, but rather spoiled like that," said Nesya so innocently without realizing who she was talking about.

Ratna did not respond. He just put a flat face towards Tama who started to misbehave. So it was discovered that he kept Ratna's contacts by what name.

"It's not really a microwave, it's a mikrowife. This is the person here," Tama said as she pointed at Ratna who was still maintaining her flat face.

Laughter just broke out. Nesya is increasingly embarrassed to know the fact that when he went, it was not Tama who was on the phone with his affair, but Tama with his wife. Tama also finally showed Ratna's contact on her phone in the entire room, not forgetting to also explain to Ratna so that there was no misunderstanding.

"Where dare I cheat deck? Wong's wife is already a rich lioness gini," muttered Tamapada in his last sentence.

"Huh?"

"Huh? Whahuh? No, no, no. You are beautiful," Tama said with a clumsy smile.

"Indeed. I went in again, the rest of the work. After that go home, tomorrow I will send Mother Sasa to the airport and I will go to the hospital."

"Yes dear, be careful on the road yes," Tama said before Ratna passed away on her bike.
