Which Unites Love

CHAPTER 3: Eagle Tattoo

Upon arrival at the boarding house, Arani immediately locked the door. Closing the window curtains. Fear enveloped him. His body trembled, to the point of dropping HP in his hands.

Tok tok tok tok tok tok

The knocking of the door sounded. At that moment Arani moved away from the door. Snuggling his body in the corner of the room. Smothering his own mouth hoping not to make a sound.

Tok tok tok tok

The door was heard again. Arani closed her eyes.

" Dear........!"

That voice, Sai Ail's voice isn't it? inner Arani.

"Darling...., Arani you're inside ?"

Yes, my husband's voice...

Hurriedly he immediately got out of his place and immediately opened the door.

Seeing her husband on the side of the door she opened, Arani hugged her husband tightly.

What was once Derriel spread a happy smile because she could meet and see Arani in front of her, the smile was gone when she felt Arani's body trembling in fear as she hugged her.

"Let's go in first." take Derriel who is still holding her.

"What's the matter, baby ? why are you scared like this. What the hell's going on?". Derriel asked worriedly, still hugging his little wife.

" Him, he, he...he came again ! . " Say Arani and shed her tears, which she had been holding.

Slowly Derriel let go of Arani's embrace, and led her to sit in her study chair. Derriel knelt before Arani, seeing the woman she loved so much in fear like this, making her heart restless.

"She, who do you mean, baby? " Task Derriel as she rubs Arani's shoulder gently and puts on a calm face . I hope Arani will calm down too. And the other hand wiped the tears that soaked Arani's cheeks.

"People with eagle tattoos on their wrists". Arani's speech was brick-styled.

"Who is he? do you know him?".

Arani shook her head. Then bow his head.

"Darling I said, don't cover a single thing !. Your habits. If you keep your head down when asked a question, you want to cover it up".

"I'm sorry, I, a, I'm afraid I am now." Arani quipped.

Derriel hugged Arani.

"Tell me if you're ready to tell me. Have you eaten?"

"It has. At school eating meatballs with friends."

"Well, you're still wearing this uniform, just as bright as a shower, so it's fresher".

Arani nodded and went to the bathroom.

#####

By nightfall...

"Let's go out on the road celebrating your exams that have ended".

"I'm scared. Inside it."

"Alright if that's what you want. So you're ready to tell me?."

Momentary silence. Then Arani took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He looked at Derriel as calmly as possible.

"Actually the man who had the eagle tattoo on his wrist, I've met him three times."

"Three times?"

"Yes. First during class 1 SMK time off semester 1. Last Ara to AAA city. When Ara was angry with Grandpa Dirdja at his company because the woman that Grandpa brought was nothing really for Ara.

After exiting the courtyard of the grandfather's office, on the roadside, from the prank Ara saw the motorist Moga who drove towards Ara. Like trying to accidentally hit Ara. At that instant Ara gasped back from the edge of the sidewalk.

Ara had seen an eagle tattoo on her left wrist before Ara fell down.

The 2nd time when Ara mired on the edge of the cliff camping time . Ara had a glimpse of the eagle tattooed person on her right wrist behind a tree near the cliff as Ara slipped.

Then the third one was when Ara came home from school. Ara accidentally hit someone while walking. "

"Do you remember the person's face?"

"No Say. At that moment, their faces were all covered. Moge rider covered in black-glazed helmet. The time in the forest his head was covered in a hat, wearing sunglasses, and wearing a mask. The one Ara had met was the same".

"Why didn't you tell me back then?" An annoyed Derriel asked not knowing that.

"Sorry Ara, to ignore that...

Ara woke up at the school Anet reminiscing about the events of the time in the forest.

The tattooed man was there at the time of the incident on the cliff. It is not possible that the eagle tattooed in the forest, Ara at a glance saw its existence, even he only saw when Ara fell . There is no reflex movement to help when Ara will fall even though the position is close.

Twice the tattooed person was there during a dangerous incident against Ara, So Ara concluded that person was dangerous for Ara. That's why when I met you, Ara was scared."

"I'll correct it first. The person that Ara met earlier had an eagle tattoo on his hand..."

"Right." spontaneously Arani answered.

"The time of the incident The motorist's moge tattoo was on the wrist..."

And the thing on the cliff, the tattoo is on the right hand. Arani-Derriel

"Is the person with the eagle tattooed on the wrist.... "

"It could be more than 1 person" said Derriel cut the sentence that Arani would say.

"Say.." Ara's eyes started to look glassy.

"Calm down. From now on we will always be together. I'll take care of you as best I can. No one will ever hurt you again " said Derriel and hugged Ara tightly. Ara hugged Derriel tightly, too.

Does this have anything to do with what happened 18 years ago. When I first met you, honey... Derriel's.

The flasback

18 years ago

On the outskirts of the remote village. In the middle of the night with cold air after the rain, a middle-aged mother ran limped while holding a baby aged approximately 1 year. He continued to linger even though his leg was hit by a shot.

Until he finally met little Derriel at the age of 10.

Derriel, who was walking by the side of the road near the forest, accidentally saw the middle-aged mother lying down, he immediately approached her. As she gets closer to her mother. How shocked he saw the wound on the mother's leg.

"Don't take this baby as far away as possible. Save it. His life is now threatened. Please.." Pinta the mother immediately handed the little baby to Derriel.

"There's no more time. I was unable to run with my leg injured like this. Please save him, keep him from finding him."

At first glance he saw the tiny baby in his carrier at this time. Something was strange about this baby. Seeing the strangeness in Derriel's face. The mother also said.

"He's just asleep because of the dope effect. 3 more hours he'll wake up. I am so begging you. Please take him as far away as possible. And take care of it. I beg you !." Pinta mother with hope and tears.

"Crazy right now. Quickly..."

"What about mom".

"Don't worry about me."

Sayup sayup heard the sound of people shouting and saying the sentence must find the baby.

"Go away. They're almost closer."

Soon Derriel's into the woods . Run as fast as possible while holding the baby in her arms.

"That's it.." said the man who saw the mother's whereabouts lying on the side of the road.

"Stop her and the baby" said the other man.

The man who saw the mother immediately approached her. When the distance was close he shot the mother several times, until lying in the middle of the road.

Upon their arrival they approached the mother's corpse, and turned her stomach upside down, how shocked they were to see in the blanket of the baby she was carrying only a few tree branches.

"Damn... ! where is the baby . Quickly find the baby around here and on the road we went through earlier. Ask for help, expand the search.

"Okay boss!". replied the material.

On arrival Derriel at the other end of the forest close to the other village. He immediately ran to the residential area. And see there is a pickup truck vegetable delivery who want to go to the city. Derriel immediately opened a tarp covering the vegetables, and she and the baby in her arms immediately climbed up and closed it again..

The driver came out of his house. And drove his car without him realizing there was an intruder riding on top of his car.

######

Almost 3 hours passed by the pick up car entered the City. When he stopped by the side of the road, the driver bought cigarettes and coffee. At that time, Derriel got off the vegetable pick-up.

He continued walking without direction until he finally saw the orphanage. Arriving at the orphanage's door. The baby he was carrying woke up and immediately cried loudly.

The person in the orphanage came out when he heard the baby crying. And look at the boy holding the baby.

The baby Derriel handed over to the orphanage. He quibbles. If the baby is his nephew. And made up the story that Derriel's brother the father of the baby had just died. His mother died giving birth to him. Derriel's parents are dead, too. He cannot and does not know how to care for a baby. That's why he left his nephew here.

"Then stay here too." Pinta's the guy from the orphanage.

"I don't want to. I had to go back to the village to take care of the old man's house. This is the only legacy that my nephew and I have. So that the life of my nephew is guaranteed better I leave it here. I promise to visit every time to see him."

"It's still dark, come back after dawn".

"All right."

"Who's the name of this beautiful baby?"

It turns out that this baby is a girl. Ask Derriel in heart. The mother did not name the baby. All right, I'll name it...

"Name Arani....! "
