Chapter 6 - The Promised Meet At Night

I arrived at my house, I opened the door of the house and headed to my room, before I got to the room, I saw my mother was cooking for dinner.

"I'm coming home, ma'am," I said, when I saw my mother who was cooking, the aroma of cooking was very fragrant and seductive, making me so eager to enjoy it, impatient every time my mother cooked me a meal.

"Refta, hurry up and take a shower and get ready for dinner, today mother cooks your favorite menu" While cooking without looking at me, my mother is very focused on cooking, especially when cooking my favorite food.

"Fine ma'am" I said, then I rushed to my room I opened the door of my room, then I put my bag in the corner of the room, very tired, I lay down on my bed, for a moment I remembered the shadow of today together with Olivia.

Just for a moment I imagined the day with her, not long after my cellphone rang, a call, I immediately saw my cellphone, one call from Olivia, I called back, but there was no answer, I thought what was the matter of her calling me, is there any homework to do finish, but as far as I remember there hasn't been any homework today.

I wrote a short message from social media to Olivia, "Hi, do you need help?" A little stiff I made the message, because I hardly ever send messages to female friends. I waited for a long time for a reply, made me a little worried, while waiting for me to go to the bathroom, I opened my bathroom door, the bath was large and there was a dipper, the bathroom was very simple, I immediately took a shower, I scrubbed and cleaned my body.

After I took a shower I saw my cellphone there was an incoming message, definitely from Olivia I thought, I quickly opened it, a congratulatory message from the operator was printed in front of my screen, I put my cellphone back on.

"Refta come here quickly, eat warm is better" shouted my mother from the dining room, while preparing plates and drinks for us.

Immediately I sat down and was ready to enjoy the dish that was given by my mother, I immediately ate it with great gusto and finished my meal.

After eating, my cellphone vibrated again, this time a reply message from Olivia "Sorry I took a shower for a while, tonight you want to accompany me to the market at night, I want to buy something" It took a long time to take a shower, I thought, I can finish a lot of work while she is bathing.

"Let's meet at the night market, okay?" I replied to Olivia, finished answering. I helped my mother tidy up the food and wash our dishes.

I also left with my rumpok bike, I walked along the road to a very beautiful beach towards the city, in the middle of the road I saw a crowd, three men and one woman, I saw the men were trying to snatch a woman's bag.

"Please… .." shouted a woman who was having a hard time facing three men at once, who tried to take her bag from her, I had not yet reached the crowd, the three men forcibly removed the strap of their bag with a knife, and immediately ran using their motorbike, I memorized the license plate. the motorbike and I immediately chased it.

My bicycle is very slow I thought, but I really know the area I am traveling through, I quickly pedal my bike, I am quite far behind with the motorbike that I am chasing, three men with one motorbike, I think they will not be far away.

After a long time I turned around and looked for finally I found their motorbike under the bridge, I put my bike down. Immediately down towards them.

"Let's hurry and divide the results, boss," said one of the men, holding a knife and wanting to rip his bag.

"Are you that low to earn money?" I said, trying to stop the actions of those who were happy because they managed to snatch a bag from a woman they met in the middle of a dark road.

"How dare you say, do you not love your life?" Threatened a big, burly man holding a knife and pointing it at me, so dark and very narrow the alley was under the bridge, around the grass and on the other side of the very large lake water , no one will hear or know what happened down here because of the sound of the water.

Around this lake there are often crimes, theft, rape, murder, and even suicide often occur around here, that's why people often call it a bridge of despair, everyone is so frustrated and many give up when they don't know what else should they do, because of that the crime rate around this bridge is very large, there is not the slightest authority who wants to handle the area around here, because the area around here is the area of ​​a large group that is very much feared on the border between the village and the city.

"You don't need to worry about me, you better quickly hand over your stolen bags, and leave this place immediately, or report to your superiors that you failed for the night" I threatened with a sharp glare at them, it seems these three men are just subordinates, no. battle experience, so far maybe they only threatened people who were weak.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ..." The three men laughed simultaneously

"The boss is so brave this kid to us, he doesn't know anything about us boss" While laughing and holding the shoulder of the man he called boss.

"Young man, let's just say that today is your luck, go, we are being kind, let's say we never met you, this time we are sorry" While wiping her tears from laughing excessively.

Because I remembered my promise with Olivia, I decided to take the bag they stole, I stepped my feet towards the three of them, immediately when I got closer one of them pointed the knife at me to create distance between us.

"That's enough play, go before we change our minds" said someone who was already feeling depressed because of me who was not afraid to step towards them.

"If you don't want anything to happen to you, put down your bags and get out of here, and never set your feet in this area again." I threatened the three men who were still standing boldly and courageously in front of me.

"Enough young man, don't exceed your limits." Bluffed a man who was usually called the boss among them.

Finally one of them who was holding the knife quickly ran and swung the knife at me, while running he raised his right hand that was holding the knife and then swung it at me.

The direction of the sharp blade he pointed from above my head and swung it down very quickly, I dodged it in the opposite direction more quickly.
