Arna stood in the courtyard of a large house with a luxurious architecture, this is Gio's House, the son of one of the important officials in the city. Night darkness can not even hide the charm of this house, very different from his simple house but it is very enough. Unfortunately the situation here is so quiet, since childhood only Gio lived here with a few servants while his parents rarely went home.
In the past when they were still in SD, usually they both always enliven the atmosphere as much as possible, whether it's by shouting or whipping music instruments belonging to Gio's father carelessly, or not, the important thing is that this house should not be gloomy and no one forbids them. Even Gio's parents were very happy with his presence in this house, even telling him to accompany their child often. But without being told, he would always accompany his friend. Apparently this is how this house was after his departure.
“Where with my house?”
As his mind continued to tell the story, his feet continued to walk into the front door that was directly connected to the living room. Gio muttered something, clearly grumbling because of the lack of atmosphere, but not so with the furniture along the side of the wall full of high-value art objects belonging to Gio's mother who loved art, especially panoramic painting.
“Too quiet, even crickets will be sleepy here!” Gio's chirps make Arna giggle in horror.
“Big places that sucks.” Bumpat Gio again.
Arna turned to their right according to his memory, there was a staircase leading to the second floor of a private place for the Gio family, but usually they always played there after school, after school, father Gio's instrument is also located on the second floor as well as the bedroom.
“Where is everyone?” tanyanya.
“You forgot that it is very quiet here?” gio replied while walking backwards.
“Tante Daina, Brother Maera, Uncle, and others where?” He mentioned one of Gio's trusted confidants here.
More precisely are the people who nurture and accompany Gio and himself play if there is no activity.
“Owh., they?” Gio nodded lightly. “They are not here.” Answer then.
“Where?” Arna wrinkled in wonder.
“Dad hire them elsewhere.” Said Gio and Arna stopping his steps.
“Any.” He murmured, whereas all this time Gio's father always relied on them to babysit his children, even to help do PR, cooking, school meetings, sightseeing and others.
Over time Gio was accustomed to complaining about the things he experienced with these people, maybe more familiar with them than his own parents. But now, what's up?
“Yes, I don't understand either. But this way I can get closer to my parents because they took the time to come home to see me.” Gio answered with a smile.
“Thank God then.” Arna said, apparently a lot has changed during these three years.
“How about cleaning the house?” ask again.
“If that's the hell, they come every morning and afternoon.” Gio replied, along with that he hit the corner of a table and almost dropped the television screen on it.
“Aduh!” Gio rubbed his aching thigh while Arna darted quickly to save the screen.
“Fyuh.!” He sighed staring at the huge television screen that seemed to be worth a fortune.
“How much is it?” tease Arna on her best friend who only grinned because of her mistake.
“If I were you, I would have expensive and fragile items removed from near my room.” Arna.
“Hahahaha..., if you were me for a long time I would also get used to.” Answer Gio. “Your house also has something like this.” Further again.
“Not as much as you, let alone my house is much simpler.” Replied Arna remembered his house that was once very well maintained.
The sound of water droplets from the wastafle makes it float on a story, where there are families who are always busy on their respective activities, exactly like Gio. That's his own family, but it's also what makes these two children quickly accrap. Every night, the two children in this family always murmured complaining of longing for both their parents to each child, but when their parents came home they both even crammed as a form of their protest, so sometimes the time together feels empty. Their parents are not affected by the circumstances, even though with simple things and limited time they are both still trying to please their son
“Arna.” Call Gio to break his mind.
“You often daydream ya?” Canda Gio as he looked at her.
With a wry smile Arna looked away, Gio who saw him chuckled.
“You look cool!” He held two thumbs up.
“Hm?” the talk did not make him wonder.
“I can't even believe you're still a cute Arnawa belonging to class 5D!” Gio said, Arna gawked at it.
“Really? I guess not so.” Said Arna who had her eyes cut out.
“Iya.”
“No.”
“Iya.”
“No.”
That's how the two friends argue with each other until they enter Gio's room and one of them stays.
“What's Arna?” gio asked him who was sitting on the side of the door.
“I don't know, they just dragged me there and threatened me with a knife.” Gio replied as he fell silent again.
Earlier Arna could easily tell the child in front of her to immediately go away, but now the fact that the child was none other than her own best friend made this problem too. If Arna does not know the purpose of the Viper Army kidnapping Gio is a serious thing, because they could come again and threaten his life.
“Arna.”
“Gio, I'll tell you something!” His word.
“Give me your hand!” Gio extended his right hand to Arna.
“This is the epitome of Viper Amy, the organization that leads the bloody terror perpetrators of Medianpolis City.” Arna risks showing Gio the Viper Army crest.
“Terror?” Gio said it with a surprised tone.
Arna nodded seriously.
“Including the terror that killed Brother Rabka in the market is one of them.”
“I-this.” Gio clasped his hands tightly. “But I don't understand anything at all.” he replied.
“Try you remember again, don't hide anything from me!” Arna stared fixedly at Gio's marbles eyes.
Gio sighed trying to clear his mind.
“Wait a minute. What do they want with terrorizing the City?”
“Downloading power held by technologists, I don't know but I think so. They spread terror to threaten the government, scare the residents and damage the city from within.” Arna massaged her forehead hoping there was something she remembered to complete her description.
“But why is that? It sounds like they hate the technologists.” Gio Response.
“Entah, I also don't understand.” Reply Ana with a question mark.
“What is certain is that if this information is spread and pseudo-believers, their group is hated by everyone. In addition to taking a lot of casualties, they also threaten the wrong group. The technologists created a sophisticated tool that is very helpful to our lives so far, why hate?” Gio said at length.
“Unless the technologists make a big mistake, it might be like finishing off one animal species with its technology. It will make nature lovers angry big.” Added Arna.
Gio was speechless looking at the emblem that Arna had drawn on his palm.
“Wait, big mistake of technologists! There's a fairy tale telling it, but it's just a fairy tale.” Said Gio suddenly.
“Where?” Arna hurriedly cut.
“Daddy has a lot of clippings about such a thing in its workspace.” Excited Gio while running to the room followed by Arna's quick steps.
“Really?”
“Ya, she collects a lot of.” Replied Gio who had started to enter his father's study.
Then the two began searching around every corner.
“Maybe here!” Excited Gio crawled under his desk like a kitten.
“Interested?” Tanya Arna bowed to look for clippings that were not even known the shape of the cover.
“This is it!”
DUAKKS
Gio looked up suddenly without caring about the table above him.
“Addicted.!” He groaned but still handed over a large book containing the patch of magazine and newspaper pieces.
“Thanks Gio.”Arna laughed at Gio who was acting silly.
“This is indeed a strange story, ‘Forgotten Sin Of City’” Arna said, then they started reading.
But bum one sentence he read, the roar of the car was heard in the yard of the house, followed by a beam of light entering through the window curtain gap.
“Dad!” Gio.
“Quick get away from here!” Said Arna who immediately closed the book and began to tidy up the paper on the floor.
“Alright, come!” Gio said as they were outside the room to Arna behind him.
When the decit of the front door was opened, it sounded loud, because the two of them had come crouching in the bedroom blanket. Not to sleep, but to read the clippings of Gio's father pirated them. Between the darkness of the room, the dim light of the flashlight penetrated the blanket.
“Let's start.” The whispers of Gio and Ana nodded.
