The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug

the other debt

The day quickly passed. I don't know how many times Budi thought about his girlfriend. Until the stand was dismantled, he did not appear to meet him at all.

Some short messages in the form of text and video, it is enough to relieve his anxiety. But he was not satisfied. There was still something in his heart. Even though he was also confused, what felt stuck.

After waiting in line for quite a while, he finally finished his bath. Yes, he's not at his house. He's staying at the factory, tonight. After dismantling, transporting, and tidying post-expo goods in the district.

In the former cubic belonging to PPIC, which has been completely converted as a meeting room for the European expo team, Budi was enjoying a cup of black coffee. Befriend fried bananas that are still steaming the steam. But his eyes were focused on his laptop.

Many photos and videos are scattered in cyberspace. Telling the latest development of the virus that is considered dangerous, China has imposed tests and quarantines on thousands of people who are in Wuhan. They even plan to quarantine the area.

In other countries, it is also no less exciting. One finding alone has made a stir of one country. And these wildly scattered videos are already unsettling. Because it has not been proven the truth, but those who make the videos have framed if the sufferer who contracted the virus looks very suffering. And the virus can spread through the air, and last a long time in solid objects.

“Weis, for dong! Diem-diem aja”

A loud cry distracted her.

“Iya. I'm also a laper, here. Why breakfast first, Bud?” sounds like a word from someone who just came in.

“Ki, which Aldo?” ask without heeding their call.

“Again to polres” replied Riki, in a somewhat unclear voice. Because he was chewing on a hot fried banana.

“Lah. Why the child? Hello?” ask Budi curious.

“Muin si Vani” replied the other person.

“Muin Vani?” this time, my face turned red. Hearing the name called, suddenly the emotion of mind seemed to be burned.

“Bud. don't get mad, dong! You are nanya. We ngejawab”

Budi gasped at the reprimand. Slowly she tries to control her emotions. He tried to suppress the many painful shadows that were milling about in his wishful thinking.

“Yes, mbak Farah. Sorry” replied Budi a moment later.

“What do you want to ask, Bud? Aldo nitipin some things are the same to me. Goodness times can bring up your questions” asked Riki carefully.

“Huuuffft. Notwithstanding. Entar aja” replied Budi. His breath made Riki afraid. Marks Budi is still angry.

“Budd. You don't get mad at Aldo, yeah! He still feels for Vani. He still hopes to get his heart Vani” Farah said slowly. Be fixed on him. It felt that stare to Farah.

“Huuufft. Yes, mbak. I have no problem with Aldo” replied Budi.

“Times they're really married, shoot ask, you don't take revenge, yes!” farah Pinta. Budi scrunched his forehead.

“Hempf. Ha ha ha ha ha. It could also turn out to be Aldo, Naklukin Vani. Salut gua” Comments Budi while laughing.

That laugh sounded scary to Riki. Farah also felt that the laughter of Budi this time was other than usual. Like a jungle ghost who is ready to ambush the enemy.

“Yes, that's a long time. It could be that I already have children, and have forgotten the same problem” continued Budi.

No one's saying. Even the faces of Farah and Riki looked confused. For a moment they looked at each other.

“Why?” The question finally came up. They both get more confused.

“Embak asked, you are legowo yes, Bud. kayaknya will not be as long as it” replied Farah.

“Means Farah?”

“You know what ngetes is?” Farah turned back.

“Yes, lah” replied Budi rather sewot.

“There are a lot of people who have been taken by the police, Bud” Farah said.

“Yes. There was a lot from yesterday too. But there is no real if they are not related to Stevani” said Budi. Farah and Riki looked at each other again.

“Ya. We'll have breakfast, yuk! At the soto stall there, if there is a morning that sells nasi uuk. Sono yuk! Get Farah to switch the conversation.

“Huuufft. Pinter you, mbak. Udah pantes so ibu” comments Budi while standing.

“Means lo?” ask Farah in jest.

“Ha ha ha ha”

Just laugh. They went from the office, to the soto stall behind the factory where they worked. Because he was full, Budi just ordered another cup of coffee.When others focus on food, he focused on his phone. He's looking for news about Stevani.

Turns right. From the Princess he got the info. Princess said last night Zulfikar said that the directorate of cyber crime had localized the network used by the intellectual brain. And further narrowed down based on the general characteristics or habits of the intellectual brain in launching the action. Even some of the people examined gave information about the situation when he was called and terrorized by the intellectual brain.

Sounds such as bird sounds, truck dump sounds, bus horns, provide additional clues about the location of the intellectual brain. Soon, this intellectual brain must be caught.

And chances are, getting caught by that guy will ease even freeing Stevani. So, the Princess said that Zulfikar asked Budi not to act subjectively.

Hearing the Princess' explanation, Budi took the initiative to tell Adel. He sent a message to meet up soon. When asked what is the matter, Budi just said that he wanted to meet soon. Out of curiosity, Adel said that he would meet her this morning as well. Be sure, even if you are not sure of the outcome.

At his house, Adel was already preparing to leave. Her sling bag was already leaning sweetly on her shoulder. In his mind he had prepared a reason that he was certain his father would not reject. With a quick half-run step, he walked down the stairs. Madina and her mother had breakfast.

“You are taken mbak, what's the breakfast?” greet Madina.

“Neither, deck. Embak want to go” replied Adel.

“Breakfast first, nduk! Where are you going, anyway? it's still early morning, you know. Enem clock is also not even” sahut bu Ratih.

“Abram want to meet, bu” replied Adel.

“Yes you told him to come here, please! Ora becik girl nyamperin boy”

“Emang Adel forbid here, Mom. If caught by father, can storm”

“Ya breakfast first, lah! Can't jerk around, what?”

“His tenacity is very important, ma'am. I think Abram has an update on the case of the Vani” replied Adel. Bu Lusi gasped. He was confused to answer how.

“Yes already, drink the milk first! Mother who made it” orders bu Lusi.

“OK”

Adel sat down and drank his mother's milk. As if there was no time left, Adel drank the milk quickly.

“Adel go first yes, bu?” pamit Adel's.

“Ati-ati, baby! Don't speed!” answer to miss Lusi. Adel nodded and smiled.

“Embak to leave first huh Dek?”

“Iya, ibbak. Ati-ati” replied Madina.

“Assalamu’alaikum”

“Wa’alaikum salam”

He left his mother and sister. He played the keys to the bike. Swirling around on his index finger.

“Excuse”

I heard a greeting from the front door. Just before Adel emerged from the living room.

“Ya” reply Adel.

A man of his father's age, smiling. From the appearance, Adel can guess that the person is an employee of a store.

“Who to find, sir?” ask Adel.

“Pak Dawn, no?” answer the man with a question.

“Loh. Aye, yes. Father where? Kok car no” murmured Adel.

“Eem. I think you're out, sir. Any pesen?” answer Adel.

“Oh. I just want to nyampein pesen from the boss of Kadir. His future will not be at home. Juragan Kadir is in Teleng. So later you will be asked directly to teleng” replied the man.

“Loh. Is the coach of Kadir back home?” ask Adel.

“Already. Already weekly”

“Oh. Well, what the hell is this talking about? Business, surely” guess Adel.

“Not. Speaking loan”

“Loan?”

“Iya. Loan sir Fajar to the manager Kadir”

“Loh”

Adel's face changed immediately. Only this time he knew that his father had a lot of debt. But he doesn't know what it's for.

“Emang how much do you loan to Kadir?” ask Adel slowly.

“TWO HUNDRED MILLION?”

Adel exclaimed loudly in shock. So loud was the cry, until Miss Susi and Madina who were in the dining room heard the cry. They moved forward, to see what was going on.

“What's up, nduk?” ask Ms. Lusi, when she got to the doorway. But Adel was still stunned in shock.

“Sorry, mom. I am the manager of Kadir, would like to tell if later the dawn sir asked to be teleng only. Not at the home of the Kadir” boss the man said.

“Oh. Ja. Good. Later I say” replied Bu Lusi.

Adel looked at his mother. He was surprised to find his mother understood what the man was saying.

“Then I say goodbye, ma'am. Excuse”

“Iya. Please” reply bu Lusi.

Until the man came out of the yard, Adel was still staring at his mother. Making Bu Lusimernyiten his forehead.

“Create what ma'am, two hundred million? The feeling of the new father's wood workshop this time rocking” asked Adel slowly.

Ms. Lusi did not immediately answer. They stared at each other for a while. Then Susi smiled.

“Bapak did never tell his complaints, other than the same mother. That's part of the strategy mr” replied bu Lusi.

“Bu. The capital of the father's material is not fifty million, you know. The biggest project ever, just fifties. What do the rest do, ma'am?”

“That's your room” replied bu Lusi.

“What? Our room?” ask Adel not to believe.

“Iya”

“Why do you make it, ma'am? We just used to enjoy it in the lower room” asked Adel again.

Ms. Lusi did not immediately answer. He stared fixedly at the eyes of his eldest daughter. In his heart he laughed. Her eldest daughter is an adult. Was critical. Her secret in college.

“Future who knows, nduk? You dare to take a loan because the prospect of his job promises”

“Yes why not go to the bank, bu?”

“Bapak also still has dependents in the bank. So can't”

“Continue, ?”

There are still a lot of questions he wants to ask. But from her mother's answers, Adel felt it was inappropriate for her to scatter her mother. After all, his father did it all for himself as well. Adel massaged his forehead. Bu Lusi embraced and rubbed the left shoulder of his eldest daughter.

“Which father, bu?” adel asked, a few moments later.

Ms. Lusi did not immediately answer. She found it impossible for her to tell her where her husband was going. But he was also not sure he could lie to his eldest daughter.

“Father to solo, nduk” replied bu Lusi later.

“To place mas Luki?” ask Adel again.

Again Ms. Lusi did not immediately answer. He just stared fixedly at the eyes of his eldest daughter.

“Huuuffftt”

Her mother's scrupulousness was enough to be the answer for Adel. He sat on the sofa patio holding his head. Madina approached and hugged her brother from the side.

“All will be well, nduk” said bu Lusi calming.

“What's good, ma'am?” ask Adel. Bu Lusi gasped.

“Kalo pak more and more debt is the same mas Luki, later you will not be able to escape the sense of debt. Surely you will feel bad if you have to refuse the request for Luki” mas continued Adel.

“Do not think that is not necessarily the case!” sahut bu Lusi's.

“Haduuh”

Adel leaned back while covering her face.

“Kalo knows it will be like this, mengingan Adel so the bad guy, bu” Adel chirped.

“Kok Adel said that?” ask mom Lusi in shock.

“Bu. The person who breaks the promise, is not the bad guy, his name?”

“What promise?”

“Bu. Adel has promised Ratih, make Abram's heart no longer hurt. If this is the case, what is more nakutin than his application mas Luki?”

Bu Lusi gasped. He realized, this condition was indeed heavy for his eldest daughter. He is not the type of person who easily forgets promises, let alone reneges.

“Then Adel can nahan, can nunda. But if it's like this, it's too good to sacrifice him, ma'am. He has shown his value. Adel already can not run anymore” continued Adel.

“Do you think you can't mengelunasin?” ask mom Lusi.

The gasping Fatian Adel. He was surprised to see his mother's face turn red.

“Help the father with prayer, so that the father can repay his debts! Let you not be constrained by the same sense of debt budinya pinta” bu Lusi.

“Ibu”

And Adel rose up and fell at the feet of his mother.

“Sorry Adel, mom! Adel lancang” said Adel apologized.

“Nduk. Don't squabble, dong! Mother is not angry. Wake up yuk!” answer to miss Lusi.

Adelpun standing with the gesture of his mother's body that seemed to pull him up. They look at each other.

“Mother angry with herself mom. Mother's heartache in the past, it turns out to have the same impact on the mother's own children. Desire to be recognized, curiosity, make the mother continue to ask the father. If Adel is angry, be angry with mom! Father is not wrong. I just want to know what I want mom” said bu Lusi.

“Ya Alloh, ibu”

Adel hugged his mother. In his anger, he could only cry. He felt that there was no way he would be angry with his mother.

“Ya. Adel left first, huh, ma'am? Afraid of kosangan” saying goodbye Adel again.

“Don't despair ya, nduk! You are clever. Must be mute, same nego tak” replied bu Lusi with a smile. Adel laughed at the clever word.

“Iya, mom. Adel sure, there will be other wonders”

“Nyindir” comments from Lusi.

“Ha ha ha” Adel laughs at that short comment.

“Assalamu’alaikum”

“Wa’alaikum salam” replied bu Lusi and Madina in unison.

Adel left with a troubled heart. His mind drifted far away. He's simulating the worst.

What if he could not avoid Luki's proposal. A proposal that he could not refuse, because his father felt indebted.at once there was still a debt of several hundred million that he could not pay off.

But reflecting on what had happened, it felt that it would be too difficult for him to explain the situation. Maybe he'll get a worse reception than the previous one. And it must have been more painful.

But deep down, Adel felt, as long as he was obedient and obedient to his parents, Gusti Alloh would help him. It could be that Alloh will change the storyline, or Alloh will lighten the way. You can make everyone understand and accept each other. So, meeting him well, the separation is also good.

“Astaghfirulloh. Why am I so sure I will be rich? Just mother can turn out so good, Imam suddenly died, why do I not ask to be kept away from Luki? Why don't I ask for Abram's relationship? Or, I ask that Luki's mas be fooled by Sofia. Doesn't Imam also have a debt of gratitude to his father Sofia? Yep. I can ask for all that. I have to be optimistic. Maybe this is just a way Allah aja, make me wake up at night and kowtow to him”

At the soto stall, Adel listened to Budi's story while enjoying fried food. He was quite stunned to hear the news. Like Budi, Adel also burned his emotions. Moreover, the victim was not only him himself, but his parents as well. But if it's true that Vani is not the culprit, Adel can't imagine what his treatment is like for the real culprit. And he wondered who that man was.

“Bud”

Their attention was distracted by a greeting.

“Sori, disrupt. Want to tell me. The container has arrived. But Aldo hasn't come back yet. Can Riki back up Aldo?”

It turned out that person was Farah.

Hearing the name Aldo called, Budi so burned again his emotions. solely because Aldo was meeting Stevani. He wanted to say no, but he was also once lost and backed up Aldo. And he also realized, if in fact it was just a subtle language to ask him to go back to the factory immediately.

“Huuuffft. Okay. may, mbak” replied Budi, after a heavy sigh. Farah was stunned.

“OK. I wait, yeah! we need your approval” said Farah again.

“Siap, mbak. I nyusul” replied Budi.

Farahpun resigned.

He was not as brave as Erika when dealing with Budi. Even though he is also more senior than Budi.
