A Piece of Asa In A Taste

A Piece of Asa In A Taste
Karma for Frans


At exactly 03:00 p.m., Ghani and the others arrived on the island of Serbia. The island is only 8.82 hectares, with the majority of Bugis tribes.


The panorama there is really amazing, white sand spread widely along the greenish open ocean. Hundreds of pine trees lined up neatly, combined with coral rocks on the beach. Not to mention the towering lighthouse that is sturdy. Very pampering to the eyes.


Everyone laughed as they set foot on the island, Kacuali Ghani. He began to fidget, as his phone screen showed absolutely no network. And Tommy, he smiled obliquely as he glanced at her.


"Ghan, what's wrong with you?" satya asked who was walking beside Ghani.


"There is no signal" Ghani replied briefly.


"really?" muttered Satya. Then he pulled out his cell phone.


"How do you sound?" ask Ghani.


"Zonk" answered Satya.


Hearing their conversation, Arsen, Rizki, and Bryan check their respective phones. And they were upset when they found no signal.


"Kok can not exist, but at that time said my friend smoothly here. Ck, shit!" tommy grumbled as he stared at the screen of his phone in annoyance.


Ghani and the others looked at each other, and each of them could only exhale violently, as everything had already gone. One thing Ghani loves is Bylla. He had not been able to tell the woman, if he was going to Sebira Island.

Sunday, 25 April 2021.


The business world was horrendous by the arrest of a married couple in the Jackson family, namely Laras Kurniawan and Frans Been Jackson. For the planned murder of his sister's family. Revandio Son, Alsena Haliza and their eldest daughter, Aletta haliza Princess.


They disguised this murder as an accident tragedy. But as much as anything hides the carcass, the aroma will still be out. Sehan, a lawyer who has long worked for Revandio Putra, is now resurfacing.


He brought the tape when Frans called someone to violate Revandio's car. The evidence is reinforced by the fact that now all assets belonging to Alsena and Revandio, are under his control.


In the Jackson family, Revandio's existence is not recognized, because of his imperfect physique. He had a speech impediment from childhood, however, he was very intelligent and loving.


In addition to the murder case, they were also charged with other cases. To harm a minor. Frans dumps Princess Alina Haliza, the youngest daughter in the Revandio family who is still in search.


In the case, the lawyer also has evidence, namely the recording when Frans forcibly removed Alina from his car. And the location is not in Jakarta, but in Surabaya.


The suspect was arrested last night at his home in Jakarta. But until this morning, Frans and Laras have not opened their voices. They are still keeping the identity of the other perpetrators involved in the case a secret.


A very surprising thing. Being the hottest news, both in newspapers, the internet, and television stations.


Two facts that have stunned the public. The existence of Revandio, and also the original nature of Frans Been Jackson. Those who used to flatter as generous men, now blaspheme him with various meanings.


One person who was devastated by this incident was Reymond. He who just yesterday officially divorced, is now faced with a very tough test. He never thought, if all this time his parents were slick.


They told Reymond to stay in Surabaya, without introducing him to Alsena or Revandio. However, hearing Alina's name, Reymond felt familiar. It's just that he didn't manage to remember who the little girl was.


Once he got a call from his father's right hand, Reymond flew straight to Jakarta. And this morning he met his parents who were at the police station.


"Why are Mom and Dad doing this?" regret Reymond with his head bowed.


"Rey, I'm sorry Mama. All this is also for our future" Laras replied with a wet corner of his eye.


"Without doing this, our future won't be bleak, Ma. Papa too, why is that cutlery the same as your own sister? Until I'm this old man, until they're gone. I don't even know what Uncle Revandio, Aunt Alsena, Aletta, and Alina look like. Why Pa, why?" Reymond raised his tone, holding his dizzy head.


"From the time he was not acknowledged, is Papa still not satisfied! why did Papa take their treasure? To the extent that Papa took their lives, why?" shouted Reymond. It starts to get emotional.


"He's mute, he's disabled! He doesn't deserve to be rich!" furious Frans.


"Just talk, and Papa thinks it's inappropriate. Then what about Papa himself, Papa was even engaged. That speech is the destiny of God, while Papa. Papa has no heart because of ambition!" reymond said with a hunting breath.


Frans did not answer, but immediately got up from his seat and slapped Reymond hard.


"Mas, no!" laras shouted while trying to hold Frans' hand. But too late, the hand had already landed on Reymond's cheek.


Reymond stood up, the heat on the cheek was not worth the pain in the heart.


"Now I know why Papa and Mama prevented me from marrying Bylla at that time. Because in the view of Papa and Mama, lack is something that is despicable. I wonder where Papa and Mama got such thoughts. And stupidly I, even obeying your orders," Reymond said at length.


"Don't disobey Rey, don't blame your parents, who have worked hard for your future. We took this treasure for you, we told you to marry Sania also for your good! You___"


"Don't make me an excuse for Papa's ambition. Have I ever demanded, have I ever been lazing around, not Pa! I've always been working hard, even since college I've been studying!


And for Sania, it seems like Papa's choice was wrong. Sania was carrying a baby in her womb, she was already pregnant before marrying me. And ... now we're divorced" Reymond said.


All this time he had always covered up Sania's disgrace, but now he didn't. He explained the truth.


"What, Sania, Sania___" said Laras stammering.


"Yes Ma, she's pregnant with someone else. The one who was born wasn't Mama's granddaughter, because I never touched her!" Reymond.


"If only I had been allowed to wait for Bylla, maybe my granddaughter would have formed by now. But now, I don't promise when I can give a grandchild to Mama. Right now, there's no woman I love other than Bylla. And coming back to him, it's very difficult" Reymond said after a few seconds of silence.


"And you blame Papa, yes!" The child does not know himself!" snapped Frans.


"Mas!" shout Laras.


"I don't blame Papa, because parents are always right, that's what Papa taught me. I'm just.. disappointed, very disappointed," Reymond said slowly.


Then he turned around and walked away from his parents.


Laras was crying more, when he looked at the back of his son who was getting away.


"Mas, how is this, Reymond was very disappointed," Laras told her husband.


"He's a dissident child, don't think of him!" answer Frans.


"Why don't you drag them all, Mom? You should just say it, so they can feel what we feel!" laras.


"Don't be stupid Ma, if I drag them, and they say I told them to. Our punishment will be even more severe. I believe Tommy can set us free. He made a gap, he also had to close it" Frans replied as he looked at his wife.


"Is this Ghani, Mas?" ask Baras carefully.


"I think he did, he must have asked Da Vinci for help, so the trail wasn't detected. But, he'll be down in a minute. I told Tommy to separate them. Without Da Vinci, what can Ghani do" Frans said, adding a sly smile.


"Ghani, you may dream of throwing Tommy away. But none of that will ever happen. Without Da Vinci, you are useless dust. Forever, you won't be able to pinpoint Alina's whereabouts" Frans' inner self.
