“KIKI..” a voice that feels no
the stranger called to him and the burly hand holding him made him sculpt..
the look on Kiki's pias face somehow had to show what expression in the middle
the violence that enshrined it.
The Flashback
Earlier...
When he was about to enter the building his gaze was fixed on
the large flower board underneath which was marked KeY Florist he began to suspect of
all the names why the owner of the flower board named KeY. That name is
the abbreviation of the name Kiki and his name does not stop there and he approached a person
the woman standing near the entrance was none other than Iin she was assigned
to stand guard in front and hand out business cards from where he works.
“Halo mas handsome, this is my name card
our office who knows need, oh yes we are there a 10% discount
for the wedding package.it looks like mas is still single kan” he explained to Yovi.
flirting and smiling flirtatiously.
Yovi received the business card and just smiled then
he asked the owner of the flower board.
“Sorry may I know the owner of the flower board
this?” he hoped that the owner was not this woman before him.
“The owner's name of this flower board is mba Marwa ” says
Iin at length so that you can look longer at the good looks of Yovi.
‘’Hah” Yovi is a little disappointed because it is not the name of the Kiki
mentioned except Marwa.
Iin thought Yovi had not heard his explanation and he
repeating words.
“Mas handsome..listen to the owner of KeY Florist.
his name is mba Syakila Marwa commonly called mba Marwa” Iin clear with a tone
like talking to a child.
Yovi rounded his eyes to hear his full name
the owner of the flower board he suspected. Isn't that Kiki's full name. It
I wish Kiki was inside and could find her. Then he realized that there was
someone was waiting for him in the building.
“Thank you pretty girl has explained” said Yovi
he rolled his eyes and walked into the building to Vika.
Iin who rarely get compliments especially from men
handsome like Yovi just silently blushed in embarrassment and became misbehaved.
Flashback Off
Back into the building...
“You Kiki right ” back Yovi calling the lady who
it was in front of him that was still silent.
Arief also felt familiar with this voice, yes.
remember this voice was the one he had encountered this morning while jogging in the square.
Arief felt something had happened to the two
this person looked at the silent Kiki and Yovi who did not let go of his grip
makes himself furious. Then what was it, this foreign man called out his rose
with the name Kiki. Cih. like a call baby.
“Roses you know this man” scolds Arief
elbowing Kiki's arm slowly tried to resuscitate the silent Kiki.
“Hah..no kak” Kiki stuttered.
“Maaf anda salah orang” lanjutnya melepaskan
yovi's grip without looking.
“Excuse me brother Arief, it looks like brother Santi needs
ku” but before he left he was surprised by the appearance of Vika.
“Pak Yovi, I was looking from earlier turned out to be father here” without
conscious Vika grabs Yovi's arm.
Kiki who saw the scene suddenly heated up and
with a rough step passed leaving the three people speechless in mind
respectively.
In the car
After the incident, they decided to go home
is not the business of the world over. Yovi's feelings are now mixed with sadness,
happy and also upset. Upset at the attitude of Vika who dared to touch him. More
again before Kiki whether he deliberately did it to make it appear that Yovi
was hers.
Without saying much he drove his car rough
and drive at high speed so that it soon arrives so as not to linger
one car with this sassy lady. He was not angry with Vika he was angry
with himself who could not anticipate that such a thing
will happen. From the beginning deciding to go with Vika was an
wrongdoing. If it came alone it probably wouldn't be this complicated. Fuck those
with Alwi saying going alone is something that
pitifully.
On the other hand Vika who has not realized that the action
his stupidity will push him to the abyss of hatred that will soon be
created. Along the way he did not dare to look or just glance at Yovi.
Since getting out of the building his attitude has changed 180°. He continues to explore memory
inside the building. He made a mistake, but what a mistake.
He continued to think while in the building he had found Yovi several times
he was looking at a woman standing with a photographer. Sufficiently
long he watched Yovi's movements. Suddenly Yovi pulls the woman's arm
that's. This made Vika wonder who it was. What is ex
her boyfriend but Vika is the only woman close to her
Yovi's. Unaware the car has stopped since 10 minutes ago but Vika still
dissolves in his mind.
“What is my car as comfortable as that until you are not aware
if it had arrived since then, until when I would wait for you like this..
I am in a hurry miss” said Yovi coldly.
Vika gasped to find the cold tone of the voice
no longer that friendly. He quickly removed his seatbelt and rushed over
down but before opening the car door he thanked Yovi.
“Thanks sir Yovi for the ride”ucap Vika
heartfelt.
“I hope this is the last time Miss hitchhiked on
i” jleb.. is not a sweet reply that he received precisely a sentence that
very slicing his heart.
Without concern for Yovi the clear bulir who was detained
from earlier escaped just like that on both cheeks Vika. After getting out of the car he
violently shut the car door and ran into his house. Yovi is not
whether his words are outrageous or not he returns to drive his car
with speed and at high speed. His mind went back to Kiki
the woman he had been waiting for for almost a year.
At home Yovi parked his vehicle and
rushing into his room threw himself down violently. Emotions have been
master himself until he screams like a possessed person
devils.
“Arrrrgggghhhh... Arrrggghhhhhh!!!” her voice
blaring in the room. Throw away whatever was in front of him. blankets, pillows.
throw it in any direction. His desk did not escape the tantrums of books
the neatly lined ones were now scattered on the floor. Until his sight is fixed
on the picture frame of himself and Kiki. The photo was taken with trembling hands
he carried it carefully and then he leaned himself on the edge of the bed..
in the face of it stick the photo in the swab of the photo especially on Kiki's face. Sequestering
tightly as if he was hugging Kiki and stared at the photo again then
kissed him gently.
Awakening to something received from Iin, he
looking for the existence of the object in his rabbinical pants pocket and his batik shirt pocket
then he took the business card from the pocket of his shirt in front of him
with eyes that have been reddened hold back anger and sadness.
I'm gonna

The event in the building has finished Arief and the troupe
been in the car to get home. Arief behind the wheel Kiki sat down
next to the front. Sisters Santi and Iin sat in the back with positions

agitatedly.
“Mawar, you are fine.what is disturbing.

templet.
“Iya I'm fine.” he replied lying because he didn't
want to add a burden of mind for Arief.
Arief did not continue his question, Arief knew Kiki

Kiki was just lying.
They reached Kiki's house at dinnertime.
As usual Mama has prepared dinner for them honestly
they were still full because of the banquet in the building earlier. But to appreciate mom
They still eat even if only a little. Only Kiki doesn't eat dinner
because he reasoned not feeling well and asked for time for himself, all
understanding Kiki except Arief he was very worried about her, he suspected this existed

Everyone has entered their rooms preparing to
recess. Arief had entered the guest room but there was something stuck
in heart. Until midnight he could not sleep. It finally
decided to exit the room to the front porch of the house to refresh
his mind. Accompanied by a cigarette.
In the middle of the night, Kiki feels hungry and finally comes out

turning his body around ensured that it was indeed brother Arief who was behind him instead

made as sweet as possible.
“Kak Arief hasn't slept” with half voice
whispered.
“So I can't sleep. How are you.

“Rose out for a while yuk not to?” said Arief
hoping Kiki would accompany him out. That's just an excuse so he can
free to talk to Kiki.
“Where are you?” kiki asked in surprise because the clock had

“Already come with”Arief.
“After brother I take the jacket first, cold” Kiki.
“Nih wear jacket brother only” Arief hand over jacket
what she wears for Kiki. Before rejecting Kiki has been withdrawn by
Arief, inevitably Kiki followed Arief's footsteps. They've been inside
cars and darting break the silence of the streets because it is already midnight is rare
the vehicle that passed.
Arief takes Kiki to a 24-hour coffee shop
far from the square. In addition to accompanying him to drink coffee, Arief
hope Kiki wants to share the unrest with him comfortably and freely.
“Why are we here brother?” ask Kiki wonder what Arief is
to convey something he thought.
“Nothing you want to say?” Arief is not
answering questions and asking back. Kiki just rounded her eyes
wonder what Arief meant.
“I don't understand what you mean” Kiki.
“You didn't hide something from your sister
ini” Arief plays an older brother hoping this way Kiki wants to
honest him.
“Ah.. no brother I do not hide
whatever” said Kiki lied.
The waiter then came to bring their order and
set it on the table.
“But why have you changed since meeting
the man in the building” asked Arief inquiring.
“Uhuk..uhuk” Kiki who is sipping his coffee, coughed gets
questions like that. Then he took a deep breath and breathed it out
slowly.
“This really has nothing to do with anyone
sis, I'm really not feeling well. Maybe this is the effect of being too long.
in the room AC” kilahnya.
The first question wasn't enough to make Kiki
lured.
“What guy was your ex-boyfriend?” Arief is attacking
with the second question.
Kiki who is eating French fries again should
choking gets a barrage of attacks.
“Uhukk,,uhukk” then he snatched the bottled mineral water
it was pre-ordered.
After being calm, he finally came back to defend himself.
“What kind of question is sis, if sis continues
asking strange things I want to go home” threatened Kiki hope this way
able to stop Arief's attack.
Arief was silent, both of them were dissolved in thought
after an hour each spent together at the cafe. Then
deciding to go home, Kiki asks to stop by the pharmacy for a while
buy fever medicine. Arriving home at 03.00 WIB in the morning. Without
to the knowledge of Kiki and Arief, when entering the house Isa saw both
he just came out of the bathroom, immediately Isa quickly
enter the room so as not to be caught by his brother.
Kiki entered the room quietly, Isa was just pretending
sleeping next to Imah's mother who fell asleep in the middle, while Kiki lay on the side
the other. Isa slowly opened his eyes he was still wondering where he was from
her brother in the early hours of this day, wait like he heard a voice earlier
man.is he that creepy gondrong guy.
I have to make sure tomorrow.Batin Isa.

Early in the morning everyone was busy with their activities
ma'am Imah is sweeping in Kiki's backyard and Santi's brother is preparing
breakfast Iin was packing in the room, and Arief was in his room. Isa
sitting at the dining table watching her brother's behavior.
‘’Isa, please you arrange this there” Kiki points to
the usual carpet directions for eating together. Without answering, Isa stared
a flat gaze and snatched the plate containing the flour fried catfish then headed over
carpet and styling. Kiki is unaware that her sister is harboring a sign
big ask for him about last night.
After breakfast was ready, everyone gathered in the living room to
eating breakfast, all seemed to enjoy breakfast only the twang of a spoon
and plates that collide without any chatter. After breakfast, mom
and Kiki who cleared it up, Iin and Kak Santi returned to the room to
pack up because they'll be back in the office by noon. Arief sat
relax on the terrace. Again Isa just stared intently at his brother. Isa is coming
helps with cleaning cutlery. Isa sat at the dining table. Kiki and Mama Imah
I was washing dishes.
“Kak.. brother last night where?” Kiki listened
the question from his sister, he began to trace the incident last night so Isa knows
he came out with Arief finished his story. But how does he know, what
when out of the house or when he came back but at that time he was sure there was nothing
see or when he entered the room with a sneak. I pretended not to
he heard him continue his work.
“Sister, instead of last night brother came out together
that gondrong big brother's friend?” this time the question of Isa makes Mama and
Kiki compactly turned towards Isa who was flat-robed.
“Eh. all night brother came out with brother Arief to
to the pharmacy sa” replied Kiki a little nervous fearing her sister asked all sorts of questions. However
Isa only ‘Oh’ ria responds to her brother.
“Oh” Isa then left the two, Isa knows
there's gotta be something her brother has hidden about her disappearance last night.
This time I was wondering if Kiki really came out
nights especially with a man even if it's his friend is not it
still not good. If it is true to the pharmacy why not wake himself up to
accompany his daughter.
“Nak... Is it true what your sister said? ” mom staring
his daughter hopes to get the real answer.
“I-iya bu” Kiki replied and lowered her face.
“Why not wake mom up to accompany you to
pharmacy?” mother's question made her die a tick, what other reason would Kiki
give it to his mother.
“Sorry mom, Kiki didn't have the heart to wake mom, mom
must be tired right after a day of taking care of the house, actually Kiki wants to leave
alone but when in front of met with brother Arief and brother Arief insisted
to deliver Kiki bu, finally Kiki went with him” he explained at length
hoping his mother would accept his explanation even if she had to involve others.
“Nak here.” mom held Kiki's hand and took her
sit on the dining table chair.
“Whatever the reason is not good out the night alone or
with foreign men. unless he is your husband will be natural” explained mother.
gentler. Mother doesn't entirely blame her daughter who's out in the middle of the night
with a foreign man. For reasons that urged my mother to tell her.
“Mother hope you don't repeat your deeds, regularly
you are not an example to your sister, even if you are.
he is rarely home but he will learn everything from his family
including yourself” pinta mom on Kiki to keep all attitudes and
his actions should be a good example for his sister.
Kiki just nodded and smiled sweetly grasping
his mother's hands tightly. He was deeply moved by the way his mother educated him and
his sister despite losing the figure of the father did not reduce the prestige of his mother to be
single parents for both.
They continued their work in the kitchen.
After finishing all gathered in the family room to relax and enjoy
fresh snacks and juices.
“Marwa. We will return to the office later at noon.
many other jobs that have been waiting for” brother Santi indirectly paid on
Kiki to go back to the office.
“Alright brother we will be back later noon” Kiki
agreed because indeed Santi's brother is the leader of their team so must comply
the decision he made.
“What do not want to go on vacation first, this has entered
holiday season, right?” hail ma'am on everything.
“Thank you ma'am, but many other schedules have been
waiting to be honest we also want a vacation but the job can not be left” replied
brother Santi glanced at everything and stopped at Ma'am Imah.
“Iya bu.. due to erratic work schedule
difficult to be able to vacation” Kiki helps brother Santi to give understanding to
her mother's.
“Kakak also come back there?” Isa is coming
conjoined.
“Sure dek” replied Kiki staring fixed her sister.
“Kakak stayed yes.. Isa still misses the same
brother” said Isa with a cute tone but keeps the mystery in it.
Kiki felt strange not usually his sister behaved
even if you miss a meeting a day or two days is enough to treat
miss her sister.
“Isa has been off sister stay longer huh
at home then we vacation together, the same mother also” Isa begged Kiki to stare
mother and herself in turn.
“Good sister will grant to your wish.

Jesus got up and left them looking

Mother also hurried to leave them after Isa.
“Kak looks like I'm permission for one week
kedepan” said Kiki asked permission for Santi's brother.
“Both brother allow because you too have long ago
not gathering with your family” Sister Santi understands the state of Kiki who has been
long separated from his family.
“In return I will leave it to Iin..

“Si-ready mba Marwa without being asked I will definitely
do it” said Iin lantang always ready to do his job.
“One week.what is not too long Rose” protest
Arief objected to having to part with Kiki. One day not seeing him
it can drive him crazy for a week.
“No need to be so Arief, he also need time to
his Family” Santi's.
“Yes, take it easy there is an assistant Iin who can big brother

his teeth.
The clock shows at 13:00 WIB all have been prepared at
in front of Kiki's house to return to the office. Mother, Kiki and Isa
stand up to let go of them.
“We say goodbye first, thank you for your kindness, sorry
it's been troublesome” Kak Santi represents a saying to mother.

this area so you can all stop by” Ibu Imah.
“We say goodbye ma'am, Marwa, Isa don't forget to learn

“Iya sis, be careful yes sorry to have sudden clearance” Arief
just smiling. Kiki felt bad about having permission to work. Iin just smile
and nodded towards Kiki and Bu Imah.
Santi, Arief and Iin got into the car
