For a long time Dicky had his breath and heart set, preparing his heart for storytelling. Adellia was not much different, her heart was pounding, her hands were frozen. Slowly he also set his breath, preparing his heart to hear the truth. "Do you remember the first time we met two years ago, in Denpasar?" Adellia nodded. Ask Dicky a question.
"You remind me, when that papper bag we switched? Inside I found this photo." Dicky pulled out a cutout of a photo, painted in the face of Adellia and her mother. The photo is tucked between the pages of a small notebook in an exchangeable paper bag. The photo was taken when Adellia was just entering boarding school.
"Sister Dicky could not have forgotten the face of my mother, the woman who had disappeared nineteen years ago. At first Brother Dicky thought it was just someone who looked like a mother, but the writing behind the photo was very similar to the writing of mama. And mama used to write down the moments that happened behind the photos." For a moment Dicky was silent.expressing the rhythm of his breath again.
"Finally Dicky decided to hire a detective to find out the truth. It took time to investigate and it took time for Dicky to believe that. After the full proof, Brother Dicky believed. Especially after Brother Yudha came to see Brother Dicky here."
"Sir Yudha?" ask Adellia.
"Hmmm ... " Dicky took a glass of mineral water in his presence. Drink it up. This condition makes his throat dry faster and feel thirsty.
"Sister Yudha, knowing that Brother Dicky is investigating you. Then Yudha came and explained everything. He asked Brother Dicky to be patient until his time."
"Mama knows all this, doesn't she?" urged Adel.
"Yes. After that, Yudha spoke to my mother. Explain everything to my mom." Then Adellia understood what happened after that. She's speechless. Her tears dripped from between her cheeks. Her chest tightened.
"So .... When you were in that dorm, you already knew the truth. Isn't that right, brother?"
"Yes." Yeah." Take Dicky slowly.
"That's not what it means, deck. Brother dicky just ... " Dicky didn't continue his words.
"What really happened nineteen years ago. Tell me, brother?"
"If so, only Brother Yudha and mother would know. But they don't want to tell me yet. They're waiting for the right moment." Dicky changed his seat again. Find a comfortable position for him.
"Then ... papa?"
"Papa doesn't know yet. Brother Dicky hasn't told papa anything."
"So I am .. lest .. is an unwanted child. Don't you?" Adellia ran out, down the building and was lost in the crowd of the highway. Dicky wasn't playing in shock and panic. He was chasing his sister, but Adellia had disappeared from his sight.
Not Dicky's freaking out. He's like a madman going around looking for his little brother who's still very emotional right now. Many times he contacted Adel's phone, but there was no response. Dozens of WhatsApp messages were not answered.
Oh my God, what if something happens to Adel, what to say to mama. His mind went awry almost to the point that his car hit the sidewalk. Dicky stopped his car on the side of the road. Adjusting his breath, regulating his heart. And also calm his mind so that he does not get it wrong in acting. He's not being rash. Once he wrongly took action it would be fatal later. He tried to convince himself that Adellia was not the type of woman who was reckless in acting.
He believed that his sister would be wise in making decisions.
