The Foreign Taste

Empty House

Flashback a few hours before...

Ranum was awakened by the impact his head was experiencing.

Brucks.

His body was simply thrown onto the floor of a very dark room. And he realized that his hands had been tied to the back.

Brucks.

Ranum again heard the sound of a body falling to the floor. And he looked to the other side of his body. He's surprised. Because in addition, Adnan also fared the same as him.

"alright. We split up here first huh, beautiful. I can't bear to hurt you with my own two hands. So I'll let you die slowly in this place. Don't be afraid, I brought your twin brother as well to accompany you to death. So you two will be together in the end!" Said a man who was so well known to Ranum.

The man was the man who had attacked him on the occasion yesterday the day after tomorrow.

"Wait first! Answer my question first! Why are you attacking me?! And what do you mean by my twin brother?! I only have a sister!" Lecar Ranum towards a man who looked the same age as his father.

"Hmm. Should I tell you?" Ask the man to himself.

"Oh. Alright. Let's just say it's the last gift for you before you die rotting here" the man said.

"introduce. My name is Jeff. I am the confidant of Young Master Aditya in the Skull gang. The reason I locked you up in this place was for the Master and Madam to quarrel and eventually separate. The Madam will certainly blame the Young Master for missing you both simultaneously,"

"So I just meant to kidnap you. But it turns out your twin was, following us on his bike. So, yeah, it's okay. Just dickin' all. That would probably have been better for the split between Young Master and Madam" said the man, who claimed to be named Jeff.

"Young Master Aditya? Who is it, I don't know! What is his relationship with me?! And Adnan is not my twin brother!" Cecar Ranun doesn't understand.

Jeff took a breath. He finally leaned against the wall and continued this question and answer session.

"Too long if I have to explain it from the beginning, beautiful. Just trust me if I tell you that Adnan is your twin brother. You've been separated since you were babies. And your real mother is Adnan's mother. Poor that boy. She thought her biological mother as an adoptive mother all this time," Jeff explained.

Ranum. It was hard to believe Jeff's haphazard-sounding remark.

'Me and Adnan are twin brothers?! Can't be! We..'

Ranum's mind then felt deadlocked.

Suddenly he remembered all the moments he passed with Adnan. The familiar feeling he felt towards the young man. There are also some similarities on their faces. White skin, high body (though still higher Adnan than Ranum).

And the most inexplicable by Ranum is the feeling of interest he felt towards Adnan. Not as interested as the opposite sex. It's not like that. But more like the feeling of being interested in staying together and getting to know Adnan better.

"Just blame your biological mother!" Said Jeff again.

"Tante Ayu?" Tanya Ranum unconsciously.

"Yes. Blame him for giving birth to you in this world. And his stupidity also for making Mr. Aditya fall for him. Because of that woman, you became a weak man!" Jeff sounded so angry.

"Already! As good as I'm going. Good bye, Beautiful! Happy dying secars slowly.."

"Wait on! Wait up! Don't leave us! Help u! Help u!! Somebody help us!!" Ranum tried to get up and break down the door that Jeff had just closed. Unfortunately, as soon as his body hit the door he realized that his efforts would be useless. Because the door is made of metal.

With his hands still tied, Ranum tried to fumble around him. Thankfully there was a bit of light that could still enter through the small holes in the wall. So he could still observe the room where he was locked up at the moment.

Ranum was in a room with an iron door. It looks like this is an empty house. When viewed from some furniture such as old sofas and wooden tables that have been dusty.

In this room with a lot of sawang, Ranum did not see any windows. This dispelled his hopes of being able to get out of this place.

Ranum's view then returned to Adnan. Slowly, he approached his classmate who was still unconscious.

Once he was near her, Ranum tried to call his friend's name many times, but Adnan remained unconscious.

Perplexed as to what to do, Ranum finally chose to sit down near the young man. And look at Adnan's face closely. He tried to find similarities in both of their faces. For the sake of being able to prove Jeff's remark about Adnan as his twin brother.

"Are we really brothers, Nan? Did you know her? Is that why you've been trying to get close to me all this time?" Ranum asked Adnan who was unconscious.

Some time passed. Ranum had grown tired of screaming for help. Unfortunately, his effort was worth free. Because until now there is no one who approached his and Adnan's existence in this place.

Feeling tired, Ranum finally sat limp on the floor. Trying to think of other ways that can be done to be free from this place.

About an hour after Ranum woke up in that place, Adnan woke up with his own.

The young man complained of his backside head being in pain. Like his Adnan was hit from behind by Jeff and his minions earlier. Hearing that, Ranum felt sorry for him.

"Say you follow the car of the man who kidnapped me. Why are you doing this, Nan?" Tanya Ranum a moment later.

Adnan has untied the bond in Ranum's hands. Because his own hands were not tied by the kidnappers.

Right now the two were sitting on the sidewalk leaning against the wall near the door. The two were cool to talk in the dim room that began to get darker. Looking from the hole in the wall, the color of the incoming light had turned reddish. The sign of twilight that begins to pick up the day.

"Because I heard you were kidnapped. So how can I just let them go!" Adnan replied if there was any.

"But.why do you care so much? You can simply report the car sign number to the school or police station. There is no need to pursue it like this," commented Ranum.

"That was done by your sister, Kania. So, I pursue you alone," Adnan replied indifferently.

Ranum looked at Adnan in disbelief. A few seconds later, another question was asked of the young man.

"Nan, did you find out that we're twins?" Ranum asked so suddenly.
