The Untouched Heart

Chapter 246 - Deja Vu

~Hendra~

I knew that the cold wind that I felt was a sign that someone had a bad plan. And it's true. Mama and Za came with the kids and Ara to take me home. I can't fight because, just imagine, how does one man sitting in a wheelchair fight 2 women, 2 children, and a dog?

Of course I'm happy to be back with my family, but I don't want to admit it. After all, the memories that came back this morning made it difficult for me to manage my own emotions. My head did not stop showing my uneasiness after our separation.

He resigned when signing autographs, he did not try to restrain my departure, he did not even come during the trial process. During our divorce, she also made no effort to bring me back. All he discussed was Hadi, Hadi, and Hadi. No more conversations about us. And I'm jealous. Jealous of my own son.

But hearing his explanation on our way home, I realized that I had misunderstood him all along. She is not the type of woman who easily expresses love first. The person she loves must state it the first time to convince her that her feelings are reciprocated. He wants to say love.

And I remember that after I found out about her affair, I never said love again. I really don't understand. Why do I have to remember all the past things like this? Why don't my memories come back at once?

I momentarily threw away my thoughts as I watched the car on our right continue to be near us with the left penny light on. Because Za was sitting on my right, so I watched her. What I didn't realize was that the car on the left was doing the same thing. I wouldn't know if it wasn't for Sakti saying it.

To find out if they were deliberately buying us, then I asked Sakti to speed up the car. If they go along, then it is true that they deliberately follow us. If Sakti braked, then they would be far ahead and we had a chance to steal the left lane. We need to stop by somewhere around here so I can get help. The theory is easy, but doing it is not that easy because the traffic is not quiet.

Suddenly my head hurt. There were so many flashes of events playing out like a movie before my eyes. This incident is like deja vu.

I was in the car on the highway. The cafeteria had installed a penny lamp to enter the column and waited. When it was safe and he entered the fast lane, suddenly a car appeared that made him slam the steering wheel to the left.

The deafening sound of horns greeted us. I who was not wearing a seatbelt was thrown to the right and my head was hit hard on the window. The collision made me dizzy and confused with the circumstances around me. It was the last thing I remembered before it went dark.

Like waking up from a nightmare, I opened my eyes. Although I was still confused by what had just happened, I remembered what I had to do. Sakti drove fast, both cars on the right and left we also drove.

“Rem, Milky! Turn left, and get into that supermarket!” I said give the order. He did exactly as I said. And as I thought, theory is easier than practice. Sakti had trouble entering the supermarket because of motorcyclists who did not want to give way.

I opened the car window, then took out my hand so they could make way. “See the penny lamp, Sir! Drive it with the eyes!” amucku. One of them stopped so we could get into the parking lot.

The two cars will not be able to follow us because the road is one lane and they have to turn far to chase us. I had a few minutes to ask for help, then I pulled out my phone and typed Irwan's number.

“Honey? You're all right? Does your head no longer hurt?” ask Za. I put my hand on her shoulder and brought her closer. I can't answer the question at the moment.

“Track my phone and please send someone to escort me and my wife home,” I said as soon as Irwan answered my call.

“Hey, welcome back, my friend. I am very worried about your situation,” said Irwan who did not sound worried. “Two of my people riding a motorbike will come to your location within five minutes. Coincidentally they're around there.”

“Please check the CCTV about one kilometer before this point. I want you to check out the owners of both cars that booked my car.”

“Wow. Hurry up and he tries to finish you off again. Give me twenty-four hours. Once I get the info, I'll send it to you.” I didn't ask who he meant by ‘dia’. My head has received enough information today.

“Thank you, pal.”

I closed my eyes when the pain came again. Too much memory comes in one attack. Looks like both cars were triggers for the return of my memory. Because it was the last incident I had before the accident and I lost my memory.

It is a truly unique disease. I've done so many stupid things, including hurting my wife again. Fortunately, I decided to wait and not follow my emotions that were still exploding as soon as I remembered his affair with his ex. If not, I will divorce her again.

“I bring your medicine if you need pain reliever,” said Za who still looks at me worriedly. I smiled at him.

“I just need you,” I said sincerely. He put on a pouting face. Of course he wouldn't believe me after I just left our house.

Two motorbikes approached us, I asked Sakti to continue the journey home. I didn't see the two cars coming back near us. Good though. They've given up. I closed my eyes and put my head in the car seat.

“Why didn't you answer my question?” ask Za confused.

“My attention has returned and the attack made my head very sick. Give me a minute. I'll answer all your questions later,” I said quietly without opening my eyes.

“Really?” ask Za not to believe. I smile. “Thank God!” He hugged me so tightly. I'm laughing a little.

I hate feeling helpless, but I can't refuse to sit in a wheelchair. My head was still dizzy and I couldn't stand properly. Za offered me the medicine again, I refused. Depending on the medicine will only make my body spoiled.

Za wanted to take me to the room, I refused again. Right now I don't need sleep. I want to see my children and apologize to them for forgetting them. So, I asked him to take me to the living room.

But something is strange. I asked Za to stop, then I looked around us. Ja. This is so weird. We stopped long enough, Mama and the kids should have arrived home first. Why did they not welcome our return?

“Abdi, where are Mama and kids?” many confused. He frowned.

“What do you mean Sir? Madame Naava was away with the Big Lady and the children. I don't know where they are now, Mr.” He looked at me and Za in turn.

“Oh, God. Why don't I watch that? Mama's car is outside, I forgot. We went to use my car. Honey, where are they? Why did we get there earlier than them? What if something bad happens?” said Za panicked.

Damnit. I was so focused on my headaches that I forgot that they could be targeting my kids, too. I immediately typed in Mama's phone number and waited until she answered. Hope they're okay.

    Meanwhile, in Za's car.

    Naava tried to be calm as the two cars booked them directly not far from the intersection of the road to his son's house. He did not want to make his grandson join in fear seeing the worry on his face.

    Liando deliberately avoided the deserted road and decided to turn to a further path. Both cars are just attached and do nothing, so the safe way is to stay moving and be in the crowd.

    They don't know what the two cars want. But given what Hendra had just experienced, Naava asked Liando to be careful. He almost lost his son in an accident. He would not be able to live if he lost his two grandchildren. The two precious gems he had just been able to embrace after a few years he was being stubborn.
