The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug

The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug
Ta. Full standby, yes!



After the plane took off, sadness like coming back to the heart of Adel. It is undeniable, between love and hate again raged in its heart. Between disappointment and confusion, over the series of events in recent days.


I let Adel drown in his sadness. He only gave a gesture of clapping on his left shoulder. Which means, she gave him her shoulder, if Adel wanted to lean on.


And tadungpun together. Adel completely leaned his head against Budi's left shoulder. He continued to sob during the flight.


The hour hand was already showing the time for lunch, when they landed at Adi Sumarmo. Budi invites Adel to pray and lunch first.


He also told his mother that they had arrived at the solo. From Pacitan, Mrs Ratih reported that Ms. Lusi had recovered from her illness, and was now waiting for their arrival at the gallery.


“The chopsticks are pressed, Bram?”


Adel was confused, used chopsticks eating chicken noodles, even wiped using tissue by Budi. And he wrapped it in a tisue. But Budi did not immediately answer.


The call of love that Adel spoke again, made his heart wonder, whether Adel was conscious, or still drowning in his sadness.


“We must be vigilant, Del. Your husband is not a random person” replied Budi later.


“My husband is dead” said Adel.


An angry look was on his face. Budi gasp.


“He's dead, even while still breathing. Kalopun he is still alive, Adel is disgusted by him” continued Adel increasingly emotional.


“OK, okay. Calm yourself, Del! We can't let our guard down. Stay focus!”


Adel gasped to hear Budi speaking in a soft voice. Slowly but surely, he tried to temper his emotions. He still remembered the serious look in his eyes.


“What's the matter, Bram?” ask Adel.


Replace the pensive Budi. The call of love was far more intoxicating to him than the whisper of the devil. But it hurts to remember his commitment to Erika.


“Eem, sorry mas. Let Adel use that call of love during the trip, mas! Adel wants to feel happy even for a moment. And even though it's pseudo” Adel said his greeting.


“Huuufft” Budi sighed heavily.


“Iya, Ta” reply Budi briefly.


Although short, but Adel immediately understood. Budi really allowed her to use that dear greeting.


“Originally don't let go in front of Erika! pity the PRAM” children.


“Iya, Bram. Just during the trip. Tata knows, Abram already has Erika. And Abram was not an easy man to break a promise. But yes, as Abram said. We have to focus, right? It's just the call of love that keeps Tata focused, Bram. Magical word that make me happy in the midst of confusing realities” Adel replied. Be nodding while smiling.


“Ya. Bring, gih!” pinta Budi, while thrusting the chopsticks that he wrapped the tissue earlier. Adel was doubtful.


“Don't just go, just follow!” budi said, answering Adel's doubts.


He received the chopsticks and put them in his bag. They walked to the parking lot.


On the way to the parking lot, Budi took the time to call Erika, but did not get a response. He thinks that Erika is busy helping her mother, or has been on the road with Mr. Paul taking care of work.


*Please take care Princess yes, Ka*!


I sent a short message to Erika. With the hope that Erika can read it when she is free. He received the car keys from Adel, and immediately prepared in the car. When he started the car, his phone rang. Erika replied to her message.


*Sorry, mom. Just managed the legality of medical masks. This just went back to the office. Daughter, it's in the gallery, mas. There's a former camer mas too noh. It must be safe. Want to be guarded from what try*?


Erika's reply ended with a loathsome emoticon. Shit on because of it.


Be willing to return the message without paying attention to the jealous Adel.


*There are also Budi mas who must take care of themselves. RC cepek very inviting tuh. Especially just two. Not only perverted demit nyamper, the embah demit also nyamper tuh. Watch out for his hands everywhere*!


Budi chuckled reading a reply from Erika. Was it demite, perverted too? How thought.


*Quiet! I'm not going to macem, though. Please take care of the Princess, yes! A perverted Demit does not make people sick anymore. Please check, yes! I want to walk, nyetir*.


Adel is increasingly jealous to see Budi looking friendly chatting with Erika.


*Oh, have you been to solo? Look out, it's a matic car! Don't pretend to be manual! The lever in the middle of the cabin. More left, it's thighs. Watch out for pretending to miss*!


He could not hold his laughter. Although only for a moment, but it has been able to make Adel stare sharply.


*yes, baby. Missing it just take your car, deh. He he*


Adel lowered his window glass, he felt the rage, even though the air conditioning had been turned on.


*Ya. Ati-ati yes, dear! See you at the gallery. Emmuach*


Erika is still adding the end of her charms with the ketchup emoticons.


*Emmuoh. Hi hi hi*.



*Mas Budi, iiih*


Keep your phone while laughing. He imagined what Erika's annoyed face looked like.


“Great you, mas. An Erika can only melt the same you” Adel comments. Budi's attention was diverted to Adel.


“You're better, Del. A class of Erika though can not make me really move on” replied Budi.


There was a faint smile on Adel's lips. Pretty beautiful among the tangles of that face. Budipun looked back ahead and drove Adel's vehicle out of the airport parking lot.


Elsewhere, Erika was pensive. He felt something was hidden in the message. Budi's request to keep the Princess was repeated up to three times.


Although the effect is joking, but Erika is sure, a Budi would not send such a message if only to keep Zulfikar not to pervert the Princess. Zulfikar never did that.


*Then, who is the perverted demit that is meant by mas Budi? Does it have anything to do with Bejo? Jeez*.


Erika called someone immediately. He got into his car, not anywhere. It didn't sound from the outside, what was he talking about.


Since leaving the airport, Budi hasn't said much. He focused on watching the surroundings. He scanned every vehicle that was in front, overtaking, or behind him. Really standby one.


But because there are so many vehicles that are in line with them, Budi felt a bit difficult to identify, whether there is a threat or not.


But he had seen some motorcycles that did not precede them since. Even when there are many opportunities to get ahead. Until there Budi did not raise the status of vigilance. Because of this, there are a lot of coincidences on the road.


Suspicions began to arise, when they had entered the city that had the meaning of forest on the mountain, some motorcycles behind them were still driving casually, without any desire to get ahead.


Soon they will enter a road that divides a wide field with a long track. The road is quite scary when passed at night. Far from the homes of the people.


“Ta. Full standby, yes!”
