The River House

XLVIII. The maroon red rain

"Armghhhh!" Ferry groaning in pain. The joint on his shoulder slipped off. While Erwin laughed satisfied to see his cousin whimpering to endure the pain.

"You're a real jerk! I'm sure the reason why you chose my room to hang Ali Sabet is so that I'm the accused suspect. You're gonna set me up! You're willing to sacrifice me, aren't you?" Erwin glares. Liur dripped between his hissing breath.

"Ahh ahh ah, you've gone crazy Win!" Ferry whimpering in pain. He could not move his shoulders or his hands.

"I'm crazy? I'm Mas? You are crazy! When you hung Ali's body in my room, you noticed my collection of books by Zainul Rich Man. Those of you who are worried that your crimes will be exposed if anyone reads the third book series, finally decide to hide the book. But your actions led me to remember what was in the book. And I finally realized, you're the villain who poisoned Erfan!" Erwin pressed Ferry's neck.

"The loss of my collection also prompted Inge to find out what the third book series really is. When Inge found out, I felt I had a responsibility to protect your family. I thought it was time to return the favor. In the midst of my concern I attacked and injured Inge," Erwin seemed to shed tears.

"I thought I killed him. I'm sure I'm the villain. Turns out I was wrong. Vita says Inge died of an incision in the neck. I just attacked his stomach. Then who took Inge's life? The answer is you! People who wear a demonic mask. The man who tries to imitate the nature and evil of the devil!" Erwin continued to press Ferry's neck until his face turned red.

Buugggg

A punch hit Erwin's back head. The man fell down. Vivi managed to attack Erwin using an iron rod.

"Aarrghhhh," Erwin grimaced in pain. A thick red liquid dripped onto the living room floor.

"Mas Ferry! You're okay what?" shouted Vivi, holding onto Ferry's shoulder which looked sagging down.

"Erwin is crazy!" pekik Ferry while holding back the pain.

Erwin was still able to stand up, even though his head was injured quite badly. His face looks red with blood flowing down the forehead to the cheeks. He grinned, like a wolf ready to pounce on prey.

"Maybe I'm going to hell. But I don't want to be alone. I'll drag you all with me" said Erwin. A red liquid flowed in the corner of his netra as if Erwin was crying blood.

"Come Mas Ferry, wake up. We have to run, "pinta Vivi. However, Ferry had trouble standing up. Pain in his shoulder radiates to the back, waist and spinal column.

"Don't come any closer! Or I'll beat you up again!" Vivi swings her iron stick, trying to scare Erwin.

Actually Vivi is the one who is currently scared. He never expected, Erwin who had been very calm and obedient, in fact had an unexpected crazy side. Inge's death was like a spark to ignite the anger and madness in Erwin's heart.

Now, both the appearance, attitude, and nature of Erwin really look different. No more face, the dashing aura that once emanated, had turned dark. Highlight the eyes that looked empty, like a human without a soul.

"Aren't you the one who stabbed him Win?" Ferry asked while holding his shoulder.

"Yes, I intend to return the favor to you. Inge, who was about to tell Anggun about your crime, I felt like I could not let him. I've convinced myself I'm going to finish Inge with my hands. I'm ready to go away from your life after that. It turns out that in the end your demonic hand was destined to take Inge's life. I am glad to know that I am not a murderer. But on the other hand my blood boils knowing my loved one must be the victim of your madness!" Erwin bobbing head.

Suddenly Erwin jumped and tried to attack Ferry. Vivi swiftly slammed her iron rod into Erwin's face. The iron stick hit Erwin's nose hard, but the man didn't look like he was in pain. His sanity has vanished. Blindly she grabbed Vivi's hair, and desperately slammed Ferry's younger sister.

Vivi's body fell to the floor. Erwin ran and hit Ferry with all his might. They rolled on the floor, until Erwin's head hit the foot of the table. Tired and physically wounded, Erwin began to weaken.

Ferry is now sitting on Erwin. With his elbow he pressed down Erwin's throat. Erwin just hissed hiss trying to keep breathing.

"You know Win, why I never liked you?" tanya Ferry with a grin on her lips.

"The reason is because every human being without blood ties, no one can be trusted. Different from anj*ng. When you give bones, the animal will always remember and obey you. While humans, even given hearts they still ask for the heart,"Ferry pressed Erwin's throat getting tighter.

"My messed up life, my barbaric father left me with no value in life except to show him success. Unfortunately, he disappeared. No matter how successful I am, that man never knows. The man never had any remorse for abandoning and hurting me. I who lost my purpose finally found a new port of life. The port of the heart is called Anggun. I love her, and no one should touch her, hurt her or hurt her. She is mine. She's all mine. There can't even be anyone else thinking about it except me!" Ferry kept pressing Erwin's throat.

Erwin who was starting to feel out of breath, his consciousness faded. His vision began to blur and fireflies. His hands twitched and felt the palpation around with the rest of the energy that was there. Until finally Erwin's fingers reached for a small ceramic jar placed next to the living room table.

Before his breath ran out Erwin lifted the small urn and smashed it right at the back of Ferry's head.

Preanggggg

Ferry fell down. The broken jars scattered along with splashes of maroon red color that rained down on the living room area. Three people died at one time.

Erwin was still breathing, although it sounded increasingly quiet. His mind was far away in the past. When both of his parents were still there. Although simple even sometimes feels lacking, but the happiness obtained is second to none.

The memory that looks faint, because Erwin at that time was still very small. The warmth of the parent's embrace is something that Erwin misses. Material can still be sought, but the integrity of a family in fact becomes impossible for Erwin to get. The shadow of his parents vanished along with the end of Erwin's breath.
