Find Alya.


           Adrian and Bayu combed every street of the city, his eyes incessantly watching every bus stop they passed. I hope Alya is found soon. Adrian took his breath to unravel his anxiety. Before long his phone rang, a call came in from Jonathan.


 


         The call is connected.


 


            "Yes, Jo said what information, would you tell me.?" Ask Adrian.


 


            "The boss, according to the instructions obtained from the cctv recording, at a bakery opposite the hospital, Miss Alya boarded a mini bus." 


 


            "Bus , which Miss Alya was riding, the last stop of stop no. 13 not far from the city, there is a small village there boss." Jonathan said steadily giving information.


 


            "You're sure, it's not wrong to give information, if I'm wrong to cut your salary.!" Adrian said coldly.


 


            "Relieve boss, now my men are combing the village." Answer Jonathan.


 


             "I sent the boss's address, let you trust me more." Jonathan.


 


              "Hem, now I wait." Answer Adrian.


 


             The call ended. Adrian's mind was still agitated waiting for the incoming message from Jonathan.


 


              "How, did Jonathan find a clue.?" Ask Bayu.


 


              "Yes." Yeah." Adrian answered briefly.


 


         Not long after Adrian's phone sounded the notification of incoming messages. Adrian immediately opened the incoming message from Jonathan, his forehead shrunk thin, and,.


 


               "What's up.?" Ask Bayu.


 


               "Bay, isn't this area not far from where we are now.?" Said Adrian while thrusting the phone towards Bayu.


 


                "Yes, it's about five hundred meters from here." Answer Bayu.


 


              Bayu was still driving the car and slowing down the speed of the car, his eyes watching every bus stop. And sure enough, not far from them clearly plastered the bus stop number. Bayu turned the direction to find a parking spot that is safe from road coverage, so as not to interfere with traffic.


 


 


             Adrian and Bayu get out of the car. Their eyes rotated in every corner of the shop that was in front of them. They were looking for the village Jonathan mentioned.


 


             "Where is it.?" Sayodu his hands scratching the head that does not itch.


 


  


             "Bro, is this the real address?" Bayu.


 


         


             "Since when was , Jonathan misinformed.?" Adrian answered with a grunt.


             Before long they were waiting, Jonathan came with some people behind him. 


 


             "Boss, here's the footage I copied from that store, try to take a look at this picture , is the woman holding the baby Miss Alya who was meant.?" Ask Jonathan.


 


              Adrian grabs Jonathan's phone, his forehead shriveling he takes very seriously any movement of the video inside the screen of the phone. 


 


              "Bro, this is Alya holding her baby, and then where does she go.?" 


 


             "I think he's still around here Bay, he doesn't have enough money to travel far." 


            


 


             "Here are many hallways, we're going down these aisles one by one." Adrian.


 


            "If one of us first finds , remember don't be rash to take action, immediately contact me and don't make a fuss.!" Adrian told his men.


 


            I don't think time goes so fast. Five hours down the aisles hasn't yielded any search results . Until they gathered in a hallway not far from them there was a mushola. 


 


           "We rest first, bro, we're tired."Say something with bad breath.


 


            There was no word from them, they walked and went to the mosque, then sat on the terrace of the mosque. Time-consuming searches leave them exhausted. 


 


            "Bro , I guess this is just this hallway we haven't been through yet.?" Sayu broke the silence.


 


           There is no word, Adrian just nodded his head. Soon a mother came out of the mosque. The mother was very surprised by the presence of Adrian and his men. Adrian approached the mothers who were looking at them suspiciously. Adrian who understood the mother's mind, Adrian tried to greet her.


 


            "Mom, I'm sorry we're good people, we came here looking for someone." Adrian.


 


         The mother who looked tense, now turned into a smile.


 


            "I'm sorry, I thought it was the thugs next door ." Said the mother.


 


            "Mom, have you ever seen this woman and her baby pass around here.?" Adrian said while proffering his phone which was plastered in a photo Alya.


 


             Adrian had taken a photo of Alya and her baby, while Alya was holding her baby on the bed of the patient, at that time Alya had not recovered, but was still recovering, adrian secretly takes the photo without Alya's knowledge.


 


            The mother who saw the photo of Alya also frowned. 


 


            "Sorry, what is your relationship with this woman.?" Ask the mother.


 


            Adrian was silent for a moment thinking of the right answer to answer the mother. The mother looked suspiciously at Adrian. 


 


             "Eee. mom, he's looking for his wife to run away 'cause she's cheating." Answer Bayu origin. 


 


             Adrian and the mother immediately widened her eyes, hearing Bayu's statement. Moreover Adrian his eyes glared perfectly, with a silly Bayu speech.


 


             "Oalah.mas.mas.., the wife is already beautiful so kok cheated, want to find out what else, yes.just if run away , just look handsome , if I were your wife I would love your poison!" Said mother in a annoyed tone.


 


             Bayu, Jonathan and his men clenched their lips tightly holding back the almost bursting laughter , because seeing the look of Adrian's face that turned all red because of the mother's nagging.


 


         Adrian as much as possible held his anger, because of the action of Bayu he had to swallow a bitter pill in the spray of the mothers without knowing the real problem.


 


           "If I don't see it wrong, I've seen this woman, she lives in Isma's rented house from here just ten houses turn right." Said the mother.


 


           "So mom, is it, ?" Tanya Bayu spirit.


 


           "Yes, the baby is a boy, right .?" Said the mother.


 


            Adrian breathed a sigh of relief, at least his search is now not in vain, because he misses his baby so much.


 


           "Thank you ma'am for the information." Adrian said with a smile.


 


            After the departure of the mothers, Adrian turned his gaze towards Bayu, a drawn gaze, Bayu who felt guilty just grinned in response to Adrian. 


             "Sorry bro, kidding." Sayu grinned.


 


             "You're an outrageous Bay, a time to be in love poisons everything, I'm not like Jonathan who is loyal ************." Adrian said annoyed.


          


             "Kok my boss.?" Jonathan protested.


  


 


             "I want to be the boss." Jonathan.


 


             "New to insaf, not yet converted right, Jo..Jo.., if you have a venereal disease, then know the taste.!" Adrian said firmly.


 


 


           "Let's walk, it'll be dark soon." Adrian.


 


            After walking from the mosque a few meters they stopped at an intersection. According to the instructions given by the mother, they also walked right turn, their eyes rotated around every corner of the house mentioned by the mother.


 


          "Whose house is it.?" It's densely populated .?" Sayu.


 


          On the other hand, not far from them standing there was a sound of someone shouting for help.


 


            "Please.please…" 


 


             "Jarot let him go, he has nothing to do with you, he's innocent." Said Isma in her sobs.


 


           The hand of Jarot the village thug, clutching Alya's hand and not intending to let go was increasingly violent to see Alya who was frightened. Highlight her sharp eyes, changed when she saw Alya's shirt torn off the chest, the frightened Alya immediately covered her chest with both hands. 


              "Jarot let him go ,!" I'll pay off my husband's debts but please don't hurt him." Said Isma begging.


              "Silence.!" I don't care anymore about your husband's debt, you don't intend to pay." Jarot said annoyedly.


               "Have the boss just brush.!"  We'll keep watch outside." Said one of Jarot's men who was holding Isma's hand.


 


              "No, don't ." Said Alya in fear 


 


              "Please.please..., don't hurt me." Alya pleaded with tears.


 


           Adrian sharpens his hearing, he runs towards the source of the sound not far from Adrian standing he sees Alya being carried by someone, Adrian watching Alya fight on the man. Bayu and Jonathan and his men who followed Adrian from behind stopped him. 


 


           "That's Alya, bro." 


 


             Without much ado they stepped into a fairly modest house, floating their bogem towards the two people holding Isma's mother. There was a great clash between Jonathan and his men. Bayu helped Isma's mother get out of the fight.


 


            Adrian ran to break down the door of the house that was locked from the inside, the sound of crying babies in the house also made Adrian's blood boil. 


 


              BRAKKS


 


            


            The door of the house was opened, Adrian's anger peaked watching Alya who was lying unconscious, with her shirt open on her chest ,while the fabric of the skirt worn by Alya has also climbed to the top of some.


 


             "Who are you .?" How dare it interfere with people's pleasure." 


 


               The man stopped his action, staring intently at Adrian.


 


           "Sat.!" Dare you touch it." 


      


           Adrian walked with his broad strides, his hands pulling the collar of the man's shirt slid his fists several times to Jarot's face. The fallen Jarot tried to get up, Adrian did not give a chance to throw his fist back into Jarot's face for the umpteenth time, fresh blood came out of Jarot's mouth.


    


            Bugh…


       


            "Ampun.forget.." Rintih Jarot's.


 


          Several times he tried to get up, but helpless due to Adrian's blind punch, Jarot was back down.


 


           "Here bro, stop bro." Shouted Bayu.


 


            Bayu tries to stop the blow that Adrian will deliver. He swiftly grabbed Adrian's body which would overlap his opponent's body.


 


            "Here bro, stop.!" Could die for him." Bayu.


 


           "He deserves it.!" Adrian said.


 


            Ooeekk .


 


           The cry of the baby voice undoes Adrian's intention to return to his fists. His gaze turned towards Alya who was now lying helpless with a very sad situation, almost Alya suffered abuse, making Adrian sore to watch that. Slowly Adrian approaches Alya's fainted body. Several times patting Alya's cheek tried to make her aware.


 


            "Bro, you take care of Alya and her son, the police are coming soon." 


 


             "Let the police handle this case, I've made this report." Bayu.


 


           Adrian nodded his head. Adrian's heart again throbbed pain watching the house occupied by Alya, in addition to a narrow and stuffy room, also not worth occupying 


 


             "Wake up Alya, let's go home, I won't let you suffer anymore." Adrian buries Alya's face into his arms.


 


             


            Uhuk.


 


          Alya who felt short of breath, slowly woke her eyes twitching. Samar he saw the figure of the man in front of him. Alya was thrashing with fear, trying to escape from Adrian's embrace.


 


             "It's me Alya." 


 


          Alya stopped struggling after recognizing the owner of a voice that sounded so familiar in her ears. Several times he blinked his eyes trying to sharpen his vision. 


 


             "Mr Adrian?." Alya lirih said.


 


             "My son, don't hurt my son." Rintih Alya with tears.


 


             Bayu who was holding the baby also understood and handed the baby to Alya. Adrian who was sitting crouching also took off the suit he wore and put it on Alya because the clothes Alya wore had been torn.


          Soon the police came and arrested Jarot and his friends. The village immediately became excited, because of the arrest of Jarot and his theme that had been troubling the surrounding community. 


 


            "Bro, the car is ready in front of the hall." Bayu 


 


            "Alya.., Alya you're okay." 


 


              Isma's mother came over hugging Alya and her baby. It was clearly the look on the face of Isma who was very worried.


 


              "Alya, it's okay ma'am." Alya said in her sobs.


 


              "I'm sorry mom." Said Isma's mother.


 


              "Sorry ma'am, I have to take Alya away from here." Adrian said with great emphasis.


 


          Alya was silent, hearing Adrian's words. Alya slowly ventured to look at Adrian who was in front of her. He was eager to refuse, but Alya's lips were too faint just to say the word. Alya tried to get up from her seat, because the pain in her stomach Alya almost fell to the floor. With a swift Adrian capture Alya's body.


 


              Adrian also ended up carrying the tiny body of Alya and the baby in his carrier. Then take her out of the house. Outside the crowd had arrived, they were very happy for the arrest of Jarot and his friends.


             


            "Master put me down, I can walk by myself." Alya lirih said 


 


            "Can't you just shut up, why are you so chatty." Adrian flat.


 


           "Bro, here I carry the baby." Sayu who was standing next to Adrian. 


 


           "No, just let me be strong." Answer Adrian.


 


          After saying goodbye to RT sir and local residents, and also did not forget to say thank you to Isma. Adrian and Bayu, and Jonathan and their men went down the narrow aisle and into their car.
