The White Heart Jasmine

Chapter 70 - Where is Elvan?

In the Edgar family home all the fog. That morning at breakfast, Elvan did not show up. Bi Wanti looked at her room. The room was neat, but empty.

"No, Mom, Mas Elvan's room is empty" Bi Wanti said.

"Where is the boy? Look in the playroom, Rail." Erika instead sent Farel. And Farel went to the music room, nothing. To the multi-purpose room, to the side terrace, back, until all the rooms are in. It's blank! Don't don't, Elvan...

Farel quickly returned to the dining room. "Ma, wherever Elvan's in the room doesn't exist" Farel said.

"You sure?" Erika put the spoon in her hand. Well, where's Elvan?

"See the garage, the bike is there or not?" said Erika.

"Ah, yes.the garage I haven't checked." Farel ran small to the garage. Yup! Elvan's bike wasn't there! Farel's face became tense. His estimation was correct, his brother must have run away.

"The motor doesn't exist, Ma" Farel said after returning to the dining room.

Tirta appearing. She just finished her shower and went for breakfast. "What's? Why are your faces pale, Rel?" ask Tirta. Then he saw his wife also looked tense and confused.

"Elvan.." she said. Who he worries about Tirta's heart.

"Why else Elvan?" Tirta sat next to Erika.

"He's gone. He's got the bike, " replied Erika.

"What??!!!" As fast as lightning Tirta stood up and shouted. He clutched his chest.

Erika immediately got up from her seat and approached her husband. "Mas, relax... Calm down, Mas.we're looking again. Maybe he went to his friend's house. Or he's going to Azka..." Erika calms Tirta down.

Tirta took a deep breath several times. Erika took him a drink. After a few minutes Tirta started to calm down a little. But his body was still trembling. He did not expect his second son to make more and more trouble.

Erika took HP and tried to call Elvan's number. Couple times. Enter, but not lift. Maybe once the boy was still on his bike.

"He didn't pick up the phone" Erika said. He thought about where the boy was going.

"I'm calling Azka, Mas." Erika takes HP again and calls Azka. Much the same. Azka was as surprised as her parents. Elvan did not contact him at all.

"Ma, is it not possible for Brother Elvan to go to Kak Melati's house?" ask Farel.

"Eitherway. Try calling Lily or Damar" Erika replied. The woman's feelings were mixed. What happened to Elvan. The boy used to be obedient, big understanding. His big soul and his broad heart accepted anything. But now he's changed so far.

Farel called Damar. And... "Ga there, Ma. Brother Elvan ain't going there. They were shocked because I called" Farel said.

"Yes God... Where is Elvan? Bring him back, God. It could be a big problem if later in the afternoon he is not there," said Erika increasingly panicked.

"What do we do, Mas?" Erika turned to Tirta who had been silent, still calming her heart.

"Try to keep calling HP Elvan. He must have seen HP once. And keep getting ready for the afternoon. I hope before the show Elvan is back" Tirta said. His voice was sad and angry and disappointed.

"Azka, do you know anything about Elvan? You guys have been so close all along. Maybe there's something he told you. So that papa can understand why he rebelled like this." Tirta looked at Azka who was busy with her HP.

Azka put HP on the table. He looked at his papa. Adista, Erika, and Farel were also there. He should just say, Elvan's estimate of Fara's engineering which was immediately considered fabricated by Tirta before Elvan could explain.

Tirta, Erika, Adista, and Farel heard very carefully what Azka was saying. They did not want to interrupt until Azka spoke completely.

"Elvan was pretty sure he didn't do anything. Nothing he remembers at all. It makes no sense to accuse Fara of being determined to frame Elvan. But, I'm still sure Elvan is honest," Azka concluded.

"Therefore he chose to leave. Because he does not want to have to bear what he did not do" Tirta added.

He sighed, tapping the table with his finger a few times. On the other hand, the disappointment and anger in his heart slowly began to fade. Maybe Elvan wasn't wrong. Maybe he obeyed his emotions and immediately judged that his son had turned so bad.

While at Melati's house.

After Damar gets a call from Farel that Elvan ran away from home, Melati panics. What happened to Elvan? Why did he choose to leave and make a mess.

Anxiously Melati sat in the living room. By her side are Lily and Ranita. Melati did not mean to tell Ranita about what happened, it was too difficult, but her friend had suddenly appeared this morning. I don't want her to tell Ranita either. His best friend stopped crying when Damar got a call from Farel.

"Mel, you must know where Elvan is going" Ranita said.

Melati. Since the morning in the park Melati chose not to contact Elvan. And Elvan didn't send him any messages either. He knew Elvan was disappointed not to believe him. Melati remembers Elvan asking her to pray for a miracle.

"Lord, is it because of a miracle you did not present, that Elvan chose to leave? If I ask now to give you your miracle, may I?" inner Jasmine.

"Try calling him. Maybe if you call her back," Ranita said again.

Melati did several times chat to Azka asked about Elvan but still the same, no news from Elvan. But Melati was still afraid and hesitant to contact him.

"Sister, I'm sure Brother Elvan deliberately left because he was innocent. He doesn't want to be positioned as a suspect when he's a victim" Lily said.

"Ah, like a murder story. Victim, suspect." Damar appearing.

"Ehmm, come along. Do you understand?" Lily chimed.

"Learn laa.." Damar replied casually.

"Well, what do you think Elvan's doing?" ask Lily again.

"He wants to fight until the last blood, he did not do that stupid thing" Damar replied again. "Sister Mel, believe Sister Elvan is very dear to Brother."

Melati looked at Damar. He did not think Damar who had seemed indifferent could think that far. Melati smiled thinly. Something stuck in his throat.

"Are you still fighting, El? Fighting your heart for me? While I've resigned and want to let you go. Even though my heart hurts. El... Where are you?" whispered Heart Melati.
