What the question made Jebran stop putting his rice in his mouth? Until his eyes stopped staring at my mother who suddenly asked a question.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you, but I was just curious."
"It's okay, Aunty. Maybe, I'm more comfortable living alone in an apartment. Next month I also have to move to my private house," said Jebran.
"Well done! You are very mature and responsible! It is not in vain that Mr. Carlos has a son as handsome and as good as you!" praise my mother—Maila.
"Ah, don't overdo it, Aunt. I'm just a bad boy trying to be good," Jebran grumbled.
"So what? What's wrong with bad boys being nice? That's good!" call Maila my mother.
"Haha, that's right, Aunt," laughed Jebran, continuing a few grains of white rice with his side dishes.
Jebran even devoured all the food on his plate until there was nothing left. "Wow, auntie's cooking is delicious! I'm getting distended eating it."
Maila turned to Jebran who was sitting with his upright body. While chuckling, "hahaha, auntie already wrapped it for you. You can warm it up again tomorrow morning."
"Ouch, I'm just a bother!" Jebran complained feeling uncomfortable.
"Come on, don't refuse this! Auntie just wants to repay your kindness," said Maila.
"Thank you, Miss. But, can I go? It's late," said Jebran.
"Be careful on the way, ok." My mother's Maila rubbed Jebran's tall, sturdy shoulder. Jebran finally bowed respectfully to quickly leave my house. He walked, but his eyes occasionally glanced at my room which was still closed.
Meanwhile, I snored very loudly once, which woke me up from the shock of the sound. I myself was stunned when my snoring woke me from a deep sleep. My eyes forced open slowly, suddenly I looked up at the ceiling. It was still dark and quiet.
The feeling of being stuck makes me want to pee. I started to move my hands then groped my bed.
"Ah!" I said fingering my clothes which I didn't have time to change.
"I haven't even showered yet."
I kissed my body and armpits, "Uuweeeekk!" I covered my mouth as the overpowering smell damaged my sense of smell.
"I have to clean myself up, ah... why am I sleeping so soundly like this?!" I grumbled as I fumbled against the wall for a towel. Suddenly I heard something, "ah!"
"Who did I go home with?"
I closed my eyes in shame and even bit my lip slowly, "Did Jebran carry me inside?!"
'Aaaa...no! He must have seen my messy room,' I fidgeted inwardly.
I banged my head over and over, as the embarrassing memory crushed me in front of him. "Not even Dilan has seen my room," I grumbled.
My eyes went wide, with eyes focused on the corner of the room that had a partition with the bathroom. Oddly enough, I saw that the board was supposed to be facing the wall, but it had even turned to face the front position.
"Ah, looks like I turned this board over?" I thought confused.
Curiosity was so unsteady and beat my hand to check it. I already guessed! It turned out that someone had indeed checked my secret task board.
"Did Jebran open it?" I said.
"Ah, no, no! How could he possibly check?"
"If I had asked my mother, she would have cursed me," I complained.
His hand gripped the board firmly, pulling it and turning it back into its original position. With a dark colored cloth cover surely nothing will be able to mess up this little place.
"I wish I had my own house," I complained.
"I'm going to make a special room that no one else can reach," I said.
I shook my head slowly, and rushed to the bathroom. Body full of sweat makes my body so itchy and uncomfortable. It's like being swarmed by some fleas when sweat is already attached to the body's skin.
The itching disturbed my sleep, and I ended up taking a shower late at night. What can we do about it? Instead of sleeping I've been like a monkey. My fingers are very active when I sleep, so it can reduce the quality of my night's sleep.
The wall clock sounded so dull in the middle of the night, at 23:12 WIB. I dry my hair with a helper. The night was getting late, but the eyes suddenly weren't so friendly. Is it because my sleep has been taken since nine o'clock earlier?
Now, I'm sitting in front of my desk in front of the window. I open the laptop in this late night, I don't even care about anything. My eyes have passed the drowsiness, I continue the search for my secret mission.
Fredi sends a file containing data about Zaki.
My hands accelerated to press the file about Zaki Salmin—my father's best friend.
"He's been caught," I said while looking at his bio.
My finger stopped, one hand wrapped around my tired chin. "This uncle is always stalking me and Dilan when I get home from school," I said.
"But, is it true that the incident was father's order?" I thought.
The atmosphere of the night even kept me from searching for someone named Zaki and Mona Sandiara. Two people who are related.
"There's one more person I need to meet," I decided.
"Endru!"
***
Morning greets the state of the people in the area. The hospital is still waiting for news from Dilan and Riffat, who are both confined there. Dilan's fingers occasionally moved, while his eyes trembled slowly.
The figure of Fredi who was fast asleep on the comfortable sofa, finally jumped.
"Oh, it's morning already?!" he grumbled.
"Riffat, Riffat," said Dilan with his eyes closed.
Suddenly Fredi was stunned when he heard the murmurs next to him. Fredi immediately checked this man, Dilan was already awake.
"Huh! Dilan, are you awake? Wait here! I'll call the doctor," said Fredi.
Dilan is still moving his fingers, now his eyes are starting to slowly open as he tries to get out of bed. Pain from the side of his stomach made him hold and strong to move.
"Ah!"
A doctor entered the room along with Fredi with a cheerful face. The doctor also checked the pulse and heart rate regularly.
"Hemm, good! It's a bit better, but for the time being Mr. Dilan don't move yet. We have to wait until the surgical wound is dry."
"Oh, thanks, Doc!" said Freddy.
"Where's Riffat?!" moaned Dylan.
Fredi looked at the doctor's departure and turned his head to Dilan. "She is fine."
"Jebran," said Dilan.
"Yah, oh! He was here last night with Emira," said Fredi.
"Oh, what happened?" Dilan groaned, raising his gaze to the ceiling.
"Fortunately you are okay, I picked you up together with Emira," said Fredi.
"Is Emira also there to see me?!" Dylan looked up spontaneously.
"Hmm, yes!" Freddy nodded once.
Dilan was back on the normal side of the view.
"Fredi, I have something to tell you!" said Dilan suddenly grabbed Fredi's hand.
Suddenly Fredi was stunned to see Dilan's slightly worried behavior. "What is it?"
"Endru, Endru is here!"
"Don't get him close to Emira, please!" Dylan asked quietly.
Fredi's expression turned into one of curiosity. "W-what?!" All worries may have been seen. What happened to Endru this time? Is Endru very dangerous for Emira?
"He's back," said Dilan with a confused face.
