The Secret of the Heart (Loving My Brother)

The Part 24

The night was getting late, Kennan who had just arrived home at one in the morning, found his parents who were sleeping on the sofa in the family room.

With the position of Nina's head in the lap of Danu, and Danu sleep with a sitting position leaning his back on the side of the sofa.

No matter how long they slept, Kennan who pulled the blanket to cover Nina's body, actually made her wake up. Slowly Nina opened her eyes and found her son's face kneeling beside her, which looked so tired it was mixed sad.

His eyes scanned Kennan's face very closely. This was the first time Nina had looked at Kennan's face with such a frustrated look.

"Ken woke up mommy?" ask slowly, afraid that the father will also wake up.

Nina blinked once more, not answering directly.

"Why don't you sleep in the bund room?"

For a few seconds, Nina got up from her sleep and sat down.

"Have you heard from Zara?"

Kennan shook his head, making Nina sigh slowly.

"Mending mother wake up father and go straight into the room" ordered Kennan

"You also rest yes, tomorrow we ask the police for help to look for it" he said with his outstretched hand rubbing one of his son's cheeks "Mother does not want you to be sick, do not think for yourself, mommy's sure Zara's gonna be okay"

Nina's words somehow left a pain in Kennan's heart.

After cleaning, Kennan did not close his eyes immediately. The sudden feeling raged, All the things related to Zara, even the bad thoughts did not escape from her brain.

It's past two, but there's no sign of Kennan getting sleepy. Moving away from the mattress, he opened the glass door that connected the room with the balcony. Sitting in a chair, with his feet resting on the table, while enjoying a cigarette, hoping that cigarettes can clear his mind that the fog is not because.

Elsewhere, Zara had just come to her senses from her stupor that exceeded 9 hours. He looked around the whole room. A fairly spacious room, where there are some sewing equipment here. Sitting in a chair, he shrunk his nose smelling a very pungent paint smell.

A few times blinked, his mind repeatedly recalled the incident a few hours ago, when some people surrounded and suddenly did not remember anything.

"Where am I?" he murmured with his face turned to the right and left and then to the roof of the room.

With his hands and feet tied, Zara could do nothing.

"Astaghfirullah's... Sorry I'm sorry, sorry, I shouldn't have broken your words"

"White, mih, sorry to shoot"

"When Ken had reminded me to go straight home" he said regretfully "it would not have been like this, if I had obeyed him"

Grunting softly, Zara took a deep breath, then exhaled violently.

"Actually who's done this, what's my fault until he keeps me here?"

"Are they Yusuf's men, because I have canceled ta'aruf with him, like Karisa who is also vengeful, because Yusuf also grudges me?"

"Ah no, Joseph was a good man, he could not do it"

"Astaghfirullah, what should I do, my family must be very panicked"

Zara is still monologuing as she continues to try to remove the rope that tied her hand.

"Sorry, sorry, mih"

As moments passed, Zara faintly heard the voice of the Adhan, she still did not know what time it was, but her curiosity did not last long when she heard the muezzin's voice reciting "Assolatuhoiruminannaum"

"It was dawn" he murmured as he continued to listen to the voice of Adhan solemnly, his mouth muttered following the voice of muezzin who recited the sentence of Adhan.

In the morning, Rio got a call from the police station, that there was a fisherman who found Zara's motorbike on the beach, the fisherman handed his motorbike to the authorities.

After opening the trunk on the motorcycle seat, with a duplicate key, finally the police found who the owner of this motorbike and immediately contacted Rio.

"Good morning sir" said Rio when he was at the police station, he was accompanied by Bima his youngest son.

"Good morning"

"You're the one named Rio Anggara?"

"Rubber sir"

"Well, come with me" The police brought Rio and Bima to check Zara's motorbike

"Really sir"

"Alright, then, come with us"

Rio and Bima followed behind the man in the brown uniform.

After Rio was allowed to sit down, the police handed over some of Zara's belongings in the trunk of the motorbike, there was a raincoat, and also a mukena suit.

"When did my son leave the house?" ask the police to begin the interrogation this morning

"Yesterday morning sir" Rio replied "He went to leave for the office, but as of this morning, our daughter has not returned yet"

"About, before leaving for the office, was your daughter in trouble, or perhaps had an enemy?

"To our knowledge, she was fine, but before, our daughter was also followed by two foreign men"

"When that?"

"About a week ago"

"Excuse me good morning" Sela Kennan with a gasp, made Rio and the police scan her gaze.

"Kennan" Rio muttered

Kennan who had just arrived and saw Bima waiting outside, immediately told him that Rio was being interrogated.

"Sorry to interrupt" he said again

"Sorry, who are you?"

"I'm her brother"

The policeman invited Kennan to sit in the chair next to Rio. Kennan clasped Rio's hand trying to strengthen.

After several questions were answered by Kennan and Rio, they were allowed to go home and wait for further information.

Police also immediately moved in to conduct a search.

Likewise with Kennan, he has asked Bagas for help to find him, and also an IT expert, to track the position of Zara's phone.

"How's the girl doing?"

"Relax the boss, he's fine, we're bringing him up at the boss's behest"

"Did anyone see your action yesterday?"

"Of course not"

"Good" he said, then "burn all his belongings, including his cell phone"

"Good boss"

The man rushed up to the second floor where Zara was. Slowly climb the stairs one by one, until right in front of the door of the room that is used to hold it. He opened the door knob.

As soon as their gaze met, Zara who had just this time looked at that person, gazing at him full of wonder, with an inner condition that of course was wondering.

"Who is he?"

"Why did he kiss me?"

"What's my fault?"

Zara finds the cynical smile she throws at her, making her even more fearful.
