This Is It?

Chapter 50: Conscious

I watched Metha's movements carefully. Once there's a chance, I'll grab the phone. I don't care if I have to appear violent. For me, the most important thing right now is to save my good name and my future.

Metha knew what I was doing, but she chose to record rather than prevent. Such is the irony of man in this century. Any potential to invite the masses, it will be used as content. The footage is also used as an alibi as a helper and witness.

Yes, there must be a purpose and purpose veiled in Metha's mind. He might want to make my action footage a negotiating collision. The point is, I don't get hooked in the flow of the game he's starting to buzz.

“Basic killer!” objurgation. “I don't imagine how your life will be after this. Detained in prison for life and lost everything he had.” He took a few steps back, away from me.

I kept looking for an opportunity to erase the evidence he had. Unfortunately, my energy has somewhat receded. I have to take into account the distance and speed in one step managed to reach his phone.

“You're tired of killing your own friends. What if we make a deal?” Metha developed laughter to make my sense.

“What agreement?” reply with a sweet voice.

“You follow all my commands. In other words, you are my slave forever. Relax, I don't have any feelings for you,” is haughty. “Because I know who you really are. Haha..”

What else does Metha mean? He knows the real me? Ah, maybe it's about what I did just now, not about this identity.

I relax for a moment. ‘Kan I let him speak a lot. When speaking, a person's reflexes are not working to their full potential. That's where I can launch an attack.

“Why is it? Do not need to be late thinking, later your body rolled up again,” figuratively.

Akhhh!!! I ran into Metha's body. I managed to touch his phone. However, he was so strong that he maintained an object capable of messing with everything I had.

I don't want to go to jail to atone for my sins. I also don't want to be his man for life.

Buggghhh! Metha kicked my body until I fell. His strength was quite strong, beyond my estimation.

“Lu think with your limp appearance like this, you can pit my equal strength?” insinuations. “But I've been kind to you." He pushed his left hand to his waist. "Gue wait for your answer in two minutes. If you don't answer, I'll spread this video to my WhatsApp contacts. Please you digest well my generosity, Prasetya Winardi.”

Whahuh? Metha calls me by my full name as Ardi. Where did he know about this?

I touch my body. All the pieces still show me this Bagas. Then, I reflected the image of my face on the sea water. In the dim light, I could make sure there was no physical exchange.

“Bagas, Ardi. Ardi, Bagas. It's hard to believe, but it does exist." Metha makes small step rounds. "Bagas give his body to you so you learn that being a person whose life looks perfect, not as perfect as living it yourself. However, you don't even know thank you. L'm greedy. You are not grateful about the life you live,” he said wise.

Metha not only has evidence of my crimes, but she also knows who I am. Did I send him to meet Kunyuk in the middle of the ocean?

I don't like being threatened and challenged. My life is full of freedom. No one can limit what I want to do.

Sighing while absorbing energy from nature that is milling through the wind. I'm sorry, I've betrayed virtue.

Ahahhhh!!! I'm strangling Metha's neck. He was not aware of the second attack, because he was too busy celebrating by looking at the screen of his phone.

“People said, don't be too quick to celebrate victory before being declared a winner,”.

“A…. Ardi. Le... pelein ta. I ng.... can not breathe nih,” he said intermittently.

He was so arrogant to me. Now, the tip of his breath is in my power.

“Gue give you a bid. You become my servant for life or you will paddle to hell with the Kunyuk. Haha...” My turn is to thrust him into the malakama.

Uhuk! He's coughing. “O. Gu.. I ma. Ta.... but please release first ta.....your hand from my neck,” the door is in pain.

“Seriously? Lepasin first hape lu!”

He dropped his cell phone into the sand. I release my giggles. I give him a chance to lick my shoes every day.

Turn on Metha's phone. As soon as the screen displayed the picture, I flinched. He shared the video to some of his WhatsApp contacts.

The insolent!

I breathe heavily. Again, it was not I who wanted to be evil, but those who changed my persona to demikan.

Metha ran away. I immediately chased after him with all the energy that was clumping in my body.

The distance between me and Metha is quite far. I should be able to prevent him from meeting anyone else, let alone until he returns home. I threw a rock the size of my fist.

Bingo! The rock hit his back. He fell down while groaning. Our distance is also closer.

Aw!!! Suddenly my chest felt tight like there was a foreign object greeting the heart. My move's delayed. Metha ran into a building that used to be a fish auction.

With my legs staggered, I focused my eyes on Metha. Sometimes I scream to intimidate him.

Bukkk!!! A beam is targeting my back. Surprisingly, I just felt like I was touched.

“Lu want to mess with me before meeting the Kunyuk?” getirku.

He looks scared. His eyes widened with a hand that shook violently. He tried to hit me once more, but I managed to fend him off.

The beam he used to beat me, turned to my hand. Without hesitation, I thrust the beam into Metha's head. Instantly, he was lying on the floor.

A dark night befriends the breeze. The moon was only a quarter, the light was just enough to see the fear of Metha.

“Ardi, what do you want me to do? You don't intend to kill me either, do you?” tanyanya trembling.

I scuffed the beams on the floor to emphasize the sadistic impression. “Kill you? Me and you. I and you. You were so takabur as if you could escape. Now, you just have to count the time to sigh. Haha...”.

“Ardi, please forgive me. I promise to obey all your orders. I will devote my life to you.” He begged for mercy.

Unfortunately, I've been unanimously allied with the inhabitants of hell. I hit one more blow on Metha's head. Fresh blood poured out from his head.

I leaned over while pulling her long hair. “Why did you share that tape to some of your friends? You might want to make a deal, but you're just outwitting me. You also know who I am. You're dangerous to me if you let it stay in the world. So, what's your last sentence?”

“A... forgive a... I, Di. To... please!” he said he was starting to run out of breath.

No longer was there any compassion in my heart for her. I shove his head to the floor until life is undetected in his veins. Then, I poked his body to be thrown into the middle of the sea.

“Bagas, stop!” exclaim Andy's voice when I had sex again with the cold sea water.

Metha saw me kill the Kunyuk. Then, Andy saw me about to dispose of Metha's body. Do I have to destroy Andy too? Why is it that in my actions there is a snowball effect?

“Bagas!!! Bagas!!!” Andy kept putting my name out. I still refuse to turn my back.

“Bagaaaas!!” I think someone else is calling me too. The crowd was echoing loudly in my ears.

Huh!!! My breath was puffing when I opened my eyes. I saw everyone gathered in front of me, except Dita.

Yes, the Kunyuk and Metha were present before my eyes, looking at me with astonished looks.

Thank goodness they're alive. So, I'm not a killer. I said in my heart.

“Lu why, Gas?” asked Andy while shaking my shoulder.

“Drink first, Nak Bagas. Like Nak Bagas a nightmare yes,” said Mother gave me a glass of water.

Flowers sleep in the afternoon, but feel so real to the body and mind. Maybe this is called abstinence from sleep in the afternoon – makes daze and can be approached dreams that make sense.

Hem! As I recall, after returning from the mini library, I leaned back on the chair for a bit to adjust the sweat before watching the sunset. Apparently, I'm asleep.

I embrace Mother with great relief. He greeted me warmly, then wiped the sweat off my forehead.
