Chapter 60
"Why did you do such a stupid thing? I've replaced your position!" Arsyad asked with a sharp look towards Afif.
"I want to save him" said Afif, sipping a cup of coffee on their table.
Afif and Arsyad are in a coffee shop near the ocean. Arshad snorted, His resentment towards Afif, making him feel vain has replaced Afif as the lustful gratifier of the same* maniacs.
"Is the comfort woman more special than Fatimah?" Arsyad asked back, while continuing to stare at Afif.
Arsyad's question made Afif's face instantly blush. He returned Arsyad's sharp gaze. There was a flash of anger in his eyeballs.
"Never carry the name Fatimah in any matter!" infuriated Afif, who began to feel tightness in his chest.
Hearing the name Fatimah, made guilt and pain enter his heart. His decision to replace Salma as satiating the depraved passions of Sony and Aslan, that was the end of his decision to forget and eliminate Fatimah from his life.
"What are you hiding? Who's Salma?" Arsyad stared hard at Afif. She did not expect that Afif would do such a foolish thing for the foreign woman she had just met. In fact, the woman was just a comfort woman from a foreign country.
Arsyad's question, made Afif's emotions explode. He looked at Arsyad no less sharply. He clutched the collar of Arsyad's shirt, thus inviting the attention of some visitors at the coffee shop.
When Afif wanted to say something, suddenly a message containing video entered his phone. He immediately took off Arsyad's rough collar shirt, making Arsyad's body slightly pushed, so that his back crashed firmly against the back of the chair, making him grimace in pain.
At once Afif's eyes are perfectly rounded, when he sees an adult video containing a hot scene, where the woman is Salma. Meanwhile, the man who was enjoying Salma's body did not show his face.
Afif squinted his eyes, paying close attention to the details of who the man was?. Afif's jaws instantly hardened with reddened eyes. The curious Arsyad, immediately snatched Afif's phone. He was surprised by the video he saw.
Afif recaptured his phone from Arsyad's hands. He immediately got up from his seat and immediately stepped away without saying anything. Arsyad immediately ran following Afif's broad steps.
"I'm coming!" said Arsyad, who immediately sat behind the Afif motorbike.
Afif who was turning on his motor did not answer. He had eyes and his face was crimson withstanding the rumbling of his anger. The motor is traveling at high speed.
...****************...
After a while, they finally arrived at a large enough old house with two floors, which was located far from the residential area. Arsyad frowned staring at Afif and the old house. He was eager to ask, but, Afif's expression made him undo his intentions.
Arsyad followed the steps of Afif entered the old house which was like it had been very long not taken care of. Visible, the number of wild plants and grasses towering, as well as house paint that peels a lot. Some parts of the house look like burnt marks.
"Get out, you coward! Don't just dare hide behind your mask!" afif shouted, as they were already inside the house.
Arsyad gasped with a cry of Afif calling someone. He circulated his gaze to a dark corner of the room due to the absence of lighting. The hair is slightly bristled, because the atmosphere of the house is so gripping.
"I think only Fatimah can make you do anything! Turns out brothels"this cheap one brought you to your knees!" A voice suddenly rang out along with the light on in the room.
A man wearing a mask was standing with a woman sitting on a bench, playing with a doll in shabby, dirty clothes, and disheveled hair. In fact, some of it covered his face.
They were flinched, especially Afif. She stared intently at the woman who was singing, without a sound coming out of her mouth, holding her puppet, as if it were a baby for her
The woman immediately stopped her movements, when she heard Afif's voice calling out to her. The woman immediately raised her face and looked towards Afif, making Afif and Arsyad aghast because the woman's face was broken, the woman immediately stood up and the doll she was carrying was immediately released from her hands.
βHer skin was peeling with her right eye almost closed and lips unformed. Likewise with other body parts damaged by burns. The woman looked in disbelief at Afif.
Looks cold sweat soaked Arsyad's face and body shivering in fear. To him the woman before him was like a female ghost figure. In contrast to Afif, in the midst of his shock, his eyes were teary with various questions in his head.
Seeing the condition of the woman called Arini, made Afif's heart feel very bitter. Slowly, he stepped closer towards the masked man and the woman with burns. Arsyad hesitated and his legs trembled following Afif from behind.
"Arini," Afif again called out to the woman, making the formless lips tremble. It looks clear circles emptied into his creepy eyes and the circles also fell soaked his broken facial skin. There was also a longing in his eyes.
"What happened to you, Arini?" Afif asked with a trembling voice.
Afif got closer to the woman named Arini, making Arini step back, clear circles wetting her face, but the sound of sobbing was not heard. It was as if she was crying in silence.
"Stop!" The screams of the masked man stopped Afif's steps. Arini is now in the arms of the man.
"Say, what happened to Arini? Why did he become like this?" Ask Afif with a tight chest. For years Arini disappeared, even declared dead. But today, he was reunited with Arini in a very heartbreaking situation.
"You still recognize him? What do you care about him, huh!" the masked man shouted in a voice full of anger.
"For so long, I didn't expect Arini to be alive. The accident ...." Afif did not continue his words, he stared at the nanar towards Arini who continued to cling tightly to the body of the man hiding behind his mask.
Afif recalled, when he wanted to chase Nabila to the airport. He was with Arini. But unfortunately, the high-speed car can not be brake, so Afif can not be controlled.
Until finally the car they were riding hit the road divider and could not be avoided, their car fell to the bottom of the ravine.
