GROWINGS
67

Kinno woke up in the middle of the night, because he felt like urinating. In addition, the throat is also very dry.

As he came out of his room, he heard the soft sound of television from the living room. He approached. Found Nata asleep with a sitting position and head on the table.

Kinno shook his head in astonishment as well as amazement. This is what Nata is known for as a hard worker.

Click!

Kinno turned off the television. Then he broke Nata's body, and covered him. However, when he was about to turn off Nata's laptop, he barely blinked what he saw on the laptop's screen.

Kinno shifts the cursor from one tab to another. His face turned serious and tense.

'Why did he open the website of SMK Ellite Rovario..?'

Kinno continued scrolling all the way to the bottom. Then right in that courtyard, his eyes widened and his heart was racing.

'Dafa?! She's looking for information about Dafa? What'd he do it for?'

Then Kinno was more surprised when he opened one by one the tabs in the chrome window of Nata's laptop.

'Julian's? Gabriel's? The tita? Sheila's? The eka? He-how does he know about them?'

Kinno looked at Nata. His heart is growing. His premonition grew stronger, about the real figure of Nata.

"Nata--- what exactly are you planning? Why are you doing all this to me and the others...?"

Bend morning...

Geck.. Geck..

"If mommy don't come in!! This is a special room for boys who are on their way to adulthood..!!" Hassel's voice shrieked from within.

"It's me, Kinno."

Cklek..!

"If you enter, quickly close the door and lock it again. Hassel didn't want the drumming mothers to get into this room.."

Kinno just grinned. Actually, if not forced, he was also lazy to meet Hassel. But since this was an order from Nata, inevitably he had to carry it out.

"Said his laundry shirt --"

"Tuhh, put it there..!" Hassel pointed at the large wooden cabinet near the window.

This was not the first time Kinno had entered Nata and Hassel's room. But every time he came in, he was so curious about the drawers in Nata's closet. Slips of thick books that do not know what it contains. Up to the bottom of the mattress that every night is always slept by Nata.

Kinno felt and was convinced, that in this room -- he could find a clue. Guidance that will lead him to a proof. Proof that Nata is, in fact, Dafa.

Suddenly his attention was on a picture frame on Hassel's study desk. Not too big. But it was quite prominent and caught his attention.

"This photo --" Kinno grabbed a blue-listed picture frame with a picture of a dolphin surrounding it. "What is this man whose whole face is bandaged is Nata?"

"Who else, try it?" Tukas Hassel while putting on his blue tie. "Please takein dong, brother..!"

Kinno felt like he had a green light. It was time for him to dig deeper into all the information from Hassel.

"Why was his face bandaged?"

"The name is also out of plastic surgery. Brother Kinno thought, Brother Nata again play mummy-mummy'an?!"

"Plastic surgery?" Kinno's forehead is wrinkled.

Hassel withdraws. Stay away from Kinno with a face that doesn't like. "Don't like to know...!"

Kinno's spinning the brain. He knew that Hassel was not a stupid boy he could just fool. So he himself must set the strategy rather Hassel want to open his mouth.

"What if you, I taught you how to drive a car?"

"If the car bombs go bad!!"

"A real car, Hassel." Kinno. "Dufan premium picket, eat at McD, KFC, Pizza Hut as much..?"

Hassel stared intently at Kinno. "Seriously?"

Kinno nodded. But Hassel has his own way of promising adult men. He thrust his pinky.

"Promise between men --"

"If you lie, Brother Kinno later his face will be ugly, black, and fat..!"

"okay!"

Hassel now thrust out his right palm.

"Hmmm..?" Kinno.

"Signs are first.." Said Hassel lightly.

Kinno took out his wallet. It contained only fifty thousand bills. The rest is just his identity card, his sim, his credit and debit cards.

"Don't want to doang! Did you buy enough of what?"

Kinno scratched his head. "Later in the afternoon, I'll have to go first."

"Hassel can go to atm. Yes, Hassel's account number.."

For his purposes, Kinno was forced to obey Hassel's wishes. Through mobile banking, he transferred some money to his personal account Hassel.

Hassel stroked while looking at the screen of his phone. A notification sms from the bank where the account is stored. Notifying that there has just been an incoming transfer of -- one million three hundred thousand rupiah.

"Enough?"

"OKAY. If only one piece of information is enough."

"So?"

Hassel tidied up his textbooks. "Yes. That's Kak Nata out of plastic surgery. Because at that time, Kak Nata's face was very serem!!" He said while shivering in horror.

"What's so mean, Hassel?"

"One hundred more dong..."

Kinno immediately transferred the money back to Hassel's account. Although with a feeling of annoyance, but there is no other way to do it.

"When the accident ended, Kak Nata's face was badly damaged! Like a monster! So scary!"

"Accident?" Kinno thought for a moment. "Is that what caused Nata to be blind?"

"Yes, now Hassel wants to go to school first. It will be noon again if you want a fun story. Okay?"

Kinno sat on the edge of Nata's bed. His eyes were still staring at the picture. He tried to connect all these events with all his premonitions and also the similarities that Nata and -- Dafa have.

Kinno caught something popping out a little from the thick stack of books on Hassel's study table.

If the other books, the cover is brown. Not with that one book. He grabbed the book. But he just realized, if it turns out the blue-covered book with a picture of dolphins on the front cover is not a textbook, novel, or diary. But it's a photo album.

"Sir Nata..." Kinno rubbed the front cover of the photo album. "Little dolphin stickers on her laptop - - her light blue t-shirts - her white hats - and the stickers in this room.." Kinno felt an extremely intense heat and tightness.

'You know, 'why do I like dolphins?'

'No. I think the dolphin is a very disgusting fish.'

'You don't do that, Kinno! The sound of dolphins is so beautiful and fun!'

His heart trembled as he recalled the events of the past dozen years. With a shaky heart, he opened the first page of the photo album.

'Excitement yes, Brother Nata!! Because of Hassel, mami and Mbok will always support Kak Nata...'

Kinno read Hassel's handwriting. His eyes barely blinked when he saw one by one the photos below the writing.

Now he has moved on to the next page. Then the next page. And then again. And again. And again. He finally arrived at the last page of the photo album.

Kinno wasn't too surprised by the last photo. The photo shows Nata with his face as it is today.

But what made him shocked and shocked was Hassel's writing on the bottom of the photo. He even had to read it over and over again, in order to understand the meaning of the writing.

'Now Nata has nothing to worry about. Because they won't recognize Kak Nata anymore...'

Kinno's mind soared everywhere. All the events that he went through with the two people - - as if replayed.

'Will you continue to pray for me, so that I can continue to help many people in need...?'

'Yeah, sometimes I don't like strappy shoes like this. Very annoying..!'

'Kinno, thank you for being patient with me all this time. Kinno, you're the nicest person I've ever known in this world..'

Kinno closed the photo album. Without feeling it, a tear fell from the corner of his eye.

"You think you can fool me, Dafa-you think with you changing your face, I didn't know it was you..."
