RETALIATION (THE Former)
Bereft

"I'm looking for someone. I think he's still here." Ivan's reply moved closer to Tommy

"Owh looks like he's the one who's escorting you" said Ivan, putting his suitcase on the floor

"We passed by earlier." said Rony took off his black hat

"What's your plan with your stuff?" tanya Tommy walked over to Ivan

"My mom found me. I promised I'd be home tonight, so I packed up my stuff." Ivan replied flatly

"What about.."

BUGS.. A blow hit Ivan's left waist. Ivan groaned and sat on the floor, fresh blood flowing from his wounds that had not dried.

"I thought you were healed. It turns out that your body is as fragile as the heart you have! You .. Again you fall in love with someone else's" said Tommy

"He.. The girl is innocent. Rama has gone too far for him." replied Ivan by still holding his waist

"And you feel pity? You pity to see, that weak girl being played with by him? Then, why don't you fight back? Why did you let Rama hurt you? You should have just killed him!" tommy smiled cynically

"not yet. I will give the same painful death that he did to my brother and my father!" ivan said, his revenge is back on the rise.

"You can finish him off, after you make sure my victim's dead! I'll give the girl you love as your bonus!" tommy's provocative remarks rekindled Ivan's anger.

Ivan stood up, with a sharp look clenched in both hands.

"I agree. Soon, I'll finish your target." Ivan lifted his suitcase and stepped away

"She's so quick to get angry." joked Rony

"He's my spearhead. It is illegal for him to have mercy on anyone. We destroy them all, once this is done." Tommy said

Ivan grinned. Tommy's conversation behind him was clearly heard in his ears. Ivan continued his steps leisurely. He called back the cab that drove him here. After mentioning his destination address, Ivan got into the car and left from there.

Ivan focused on the photo that the other day Tommy sent, Anton Raharja, what it had to do with Shindy. Why did Tommy have to kill him? I have to investigate first. What if he's also an innocent victim?

CKITS... The taxi stopped suddenly. Some people got out of the car.

"What's up ahead?" ask Ivan

"Mas Accident. Hit and run." said the cab driver

A red car with batik decoration barged out from the crowd. The deafening sound of a horn disperse the citizens who were in the middle of the road.

"The car is.." said Ivan.

The same car as the car that followed him from the hospital. Ivan rushed out of the car. The body of a woman was covered in blood. Ivan tried to get close to the laka victim who had just been left running away.

"Biyang's.. Shayang!" the strangler was so aware the figure being hit was his mother.

Ivan crouches his mother's critical head.

"Biyang, wakeup. Survive biyang. We're going to the hospital." Ivan panicked

Ms. Nyoman just blurted.

"That's nice to see you again Made. Be a good boy, never do anything bad to anyone." - Ms. Nyoman

"Biyang remain conscious. I'll take you to the hospital." Ivan lifted up his mother's body and took her into the taxi he was riding in

"To Santa's hospital sir!" hatch Ivan

"But Mas, this is a laka, the business will be long if taken to the hospital" said the driver refused

"Hurry up!" shouted Ivan

The driver complied with Ivan's request. Ivan kept talking to Ms. Nyoman to stay sober. Suddenly a loud snoring sounded. Ms. Nyoman's body twitched.

"Biyang's.. Biyang why? Wake up!" call Ivan

"Biyang's.. Whoa-yang!"

Mrs Nyoman's breathing has stopped, as has her heart beat.

"Biyaaaang." groans of loss began to spring from Ivan's lips. Ivan was crying, the only family he had was now taken by God.

Ivan wailing. Staring at that lifeless body with regret. If he had come back before this, be a good son to his mother. Maybe it wasn't as big a guilt as he felt.

"Take me home sir." said Ivan weakly.

The red car sped quickly back to its hiding place. The hood was covered in blood. Rama, the driver rushed out of his car. Take a large hose and turn the water faucet. The car was driven with a satisfied smile.

"You're dead too. Ivan's.. Now only you and I have to finish this fight to the end." muttered Rama with a happy laugh from his mouth

Shindy woke up, hearing her husband's typical laughter. Shindy opened the curtains of the room, looking Rama humming lightly while washing his car.

"So weird, why is the water red?" Shindy focused her vision. The water is red. Shindy closed the curtains

"Other than that crazy guy did! Did he hit something? Or kill someone!" Shindy covered her mouth with both hands.

Chequek.. The sound of the door lock playing from the outside.

"You miss me?" rama asked with a disgusting sweet smile

"Do you want what?" shindy asked trying to get up

"I know you're hungry. I brought this for you!" Rama put down a pack of rice with seplastik iced tea.

"I.. Not hungry." said Shindy, turning his eyes away

"How is that possible?" Rama stood up while playing with his knife

"You refused my food all night, now you want to refuse me too? You're.. Are you tired of living?" tanya Rama put a knife on Shindy's cheek

Shindy swallowed her saliva. He's really scared.

"I want to tell you something interesting. The tragic story behind the rice wrap. You wanna hear it?" rama threw his knife on the floor

Rama's body clings to Shindy, locking her in the wall so Shindy can't run.

"After I bought it, I accidentally bumped into a mother. Owh no! I did it intentionally. Because what? That mother has given birth to the enemy that I hate the most." said Rama

"You.. Killing a Mother?" shindy's voice choked

"really. The mother of someone you know well. Hmmm maybe you could say, she is your dark lover!" rama said with a strange smile

"But.. I'll keep it a secret from you. Ck.. It's a pity that my mood for storytelling suddenly disappeared. I hope you're not curious and you're not trying to figure this out." Rama walked away from Shindy

"Who did you kill Ram? Whose dark lover do you mean?" shindy asked, starting to tremble.

Rama turned towards Shindy. His deadly sharp gaze seemed to silence Shindy's mouth to ask further.

"Niemann.. Name's Nyoman!"

Shindy was crying hysterically. Just yesterday Ms. Nyoman helped her now she has to be a corpse because of her husband. Shindy sat down with sadness on her face. It is inexhaustible to think what creature he marries until he, with the heart to finish the lives of people without mercy.

"You ever heard of his name? Or do you know him?" ask Rama

"He.. He's a good man." Shindy replied as she continued to cry

"Owh, the good guy who helped you the other day huh? Ck.. I'm sorry Shin.. Excuse me.. Because that's what I want!" Rama mocked with his laughter.

Shindy stared at the folding knife that Rama had dropped. Shindy pulled the knife and ran to Rama.

JLEB.....
