THE CONQUEROR (One Body of Two Souls)

THIRTY TWO

The car driven by Reksa stops right at the point of location sent by Seruni. Seruni was already standing in front of the fence of his house with Faya to welcome the arrival of Reksa. Muta immediately turned his wheel into the courtyard of Seruni's house.

Brak!

Mutual got out of the car, then the three of them went into the house. Seruni immediately allowed Muta to sit down.

"I'll go back first." Pamit Seruni and Reksa nodded.

"Let me!" Prevent Faya from darting straight inside. Making Seruni undo her steps and then sit her body on the sofa opposite Reksa.

"Mas!"

"Roon!"

Said Seruni and Reksa together then they both looked at each other then chuckled together.

"You go first." Mutual.

"Where can Mutual Gas be from in this city?"

"There was a little work."

"Owh, man,"

"How are you doing Run?"

"Good!" Seruni said with her own face, making Reksa frown. Ok? Why does his face look so sad?

Just as Reksa was about to open his mouth again to question the situation of Seruni, Faya had already come to bring a drink with mama Amara.

"Eh, are there guests?" Greetings mom Amara.

Reksa immediately stood up and then bowed a little to greet Mama Amara. "The Auntie."

"Jiang," replied Amara's mother "Who's this Run?"

"Eem, know this Mas Reksa ma."

"Yes, you can continue talking, Mama wants to go back first." Pamit Mama Amara who was immediately embraced by the three.

"It looks like you're not doing okay Run?" Todong Reksa stared fixedly at Seruni. Seruni made a mistake and immediately lowered his head. "Say, I'm ready to listen to it."

"Do I need to leave so you can speak freely?" Said Faya sitting next to Seruni.

"Don't!" Seruni held the hand of her best friend. He does not want to be left alone with Reksa. The three of them can misbehave this, especially just the two? Could die her style.

Apparently Seruni forgot that night, the night where they were staying at Mbah Suro's house. The two of them, he means Seruni and Mutual have been that close. Even between the two there was no more awkwardness. But I don't know why he feels awkward at the moment. Maybe because of the place and also the atmosphere that is not supportive. Or is he who is aware of Mutual's gaze upon him and he feels inferior? I don't know....

"Yes, I'll stay here. Now tell everything to Mas Reksa. Isn't this what we're waiting for?" Said Faya while holding his best friend's hand.

Mutual still silently watched the two. He patiently waited for Seruni to recount his grievances. He wished he could be a backstop for the girl. The feeling of wanting to protect that fragile-looking girl grew stronger.

By clasping her best friend's hand tightly, Seruni tried to strengthen her heart. Slowly he lifted his head. The test! A drop of tears fell down his cheek. Muta's heart was immediately torn apart, his chest immediately felt as tight as squeezed. His two hands clenched tightly as if channeling a sense of tightness in his chest.

He wanted to move to sit next to Seruni and then embrace the fragile body into his arms. But he is self-aware, this is not his place. He cannot do anything as he pleases. Now all he could do was muffle the rumbling inside his chest by taking a breath and throwing it away slowly.

Seruni slowly began to recount all his complaints and frustration for not knowing where to look for Alpha again. Tears are always flowing every time he says. Faya's hand gently rubbed his best friend's back to calm him down. Without them knowing, Mama Amara eavesdropped on their conversation. But Mama Amara still did not understand clearly the real situation. He will ask for an explanation directly from his son later.

"Do you have a photo of Alpha?" Reksa asked suddenly after hearing Seruni's explanation.

"I have a mas, a minute." Faya immediately opened the gallery folder on her phone then searched through the photos of the six of them. After finding their photo, Faya immediately put her phone on the table then showed a photo of Alfa among the six of them.

Apparently Alfa was on the right end, more precisely standing next to Seruni while embracing Seruni's shoulder. The six of them were wearing white-gray uniforms. Because the photo was taken while they were still sitting in High School.
