Adek I'm BAD
69. Towards Bandung

Today the three Ario brothers will leave for Bandung, starting the search for Raisha. Indeed, Zahra has not healed properly, there are still four days left before his legs can really be used. But he still stubbornly wanted to go to Bandung. Finally, inevitably his two brothers comply with his wishes. They leave all office matters to their respective secretaries.

Before leaving for Bandung, Zahra and Gery had reported the crime that Dion committed. The police who investigated the case went to Ario's residence for the completeness of the report. Finally the mystery of the case some years ago was revealed. They opened the case back. After being closed for eleven years, because the main witness and the victim at that time did not want to be open to the police.

It was hard for Zahra to recall that, the thing that had up until now affected her soul. He was afraid to reopen the case. Fear of it happening a second time, but it has happened. Yesterday's incident, only a small part.

Stranded there, completely dark. It's hideous! Only the voices of those who loved him could help him to the bright light in the darkness.

Although severe, Zahra finally tells the story of the death of Zaskia at that time, also about various crimes that Dion had committed.

Everyone who heard Zahra's explanation stiffened after hearing it, Gery also revealed the article of his adoptive mother who eventually became a victim of Dion's greed.

Everyone finally knows. Not everything that happened that night was really revealed by Zahra, just the outline of the incident. But it made him a little relieved, he could be a little more open. The police will go hand-in-hand to arrest Dion, as he has already done a lot of harm to people.

Now they are asking Bi Heni's blessing to allow the three to leave for Bandung.

"Are you sure you want to go to Bandung now?" ask auntie to Zahra.

The woman was worried, because Zahra—physical and mental condition that has not healed properly. Auntie was afraid that later when she got there, the trauma would return. Going there is the same as picking up the trauma to come back.

"If you're sure you want to go, aunt can only pray. Hopefully what you are looking for there really met, be careful there," said Bi Heni before the three left. That netra turned to Rio and Rizki. "Just look at your sister!"

"Surely, Bi," Rio replied steadily.

Aunty approached Zahra who was in Rio's back sling, the woman kissed him on the cheek. Zahra extended a hand. Afterwards, Rio and Rizki also approached the aunt, kissing the woman's hand.

"We're leaving, Bi!"

Rio stuffed Zahra into the back seat. Rizki and Zahra were indeed sitting in the back seat, while Rio was in front with the driver.

They chose the fastest route to get to Bandung. Zahra was ready to climb back into the house.

Three hours drive, until the car out of the toll and surround the beautiful Bandung. The car continues to run until it reaches its destination.

The car they were riding entered the residential area on the outskirts of the city. Environmental areas that are not densely populated like in the city center, but the homes of the citizens are clinging to one another.

The car stopped in front of a large house on a street corner. Many leaves fell, as did mangoes ripe to rot, which no one took. Falling down in vain, until flies swarm around him. The house was surrounded by a yellow line of police.

Mr. Mahes, Rio and Rizki got out of the car. The three frowned when they saw the appearance of a dirty house unkempt.

"Is this really papa's house?" rio asked Mr. Mahes.

"Yes, Sir. The maps that the lady sent stopped here."

"Why is there a police line?" muttered Rio slowly.

Just as Rio wanted to enter and research the house, someone interrupted the man's steps with the bomber jacket.

"Sorry, who are you, huh? This house should not be entered by just anyone, "prevent a middle-aged woman, he guessed it was a neighbor next to the house who might be asked to help not let just anyone enter the elite house area.

Rio did not have time to answer, the car door suddenly opened. Showing a girl with her eyes closed sitting on a chair facing them.

"Sir Rio ...," he called out slowly while trying to gather his consciousness.

Rizki who happens to be still close to the car prevents Zahra who already wants to get off. "Here it is!"

Rio paused his intention to enter the house, he approached his younger siblings. While the woman was walking following Rio.

"You who? What are you going to do with this house?"

"I'm sorry for my stupidity. I'm Rio, they're my sisters, Rizki and Zahra. We are here to accompany our youngest brother, he misses the house and his memories. Besides, we're also looking for her brother who went missing a few years ago."

The hijab-wearing woman began to think of something, then her gaze turned to a girl who looked at them confused.

"In-she Zahra? That's Zahra?" The woman was waiting for the answer from the two men in front of her, after they nodded the woman seemed to approach Zahra. She likened her height to Zahra and hugged her.

"Thank God, you're safe, baby." The woman is certainly happy to be reunited with her friend's child first. Good-natured immigrant neighbors who are well liked and accepted by the community. The woman had considered the neighbor her own brother. He also loved the children of his neighbors, because he himself had not been blessed with a child at that time.

The woman let go of her embrace and smiled as Zahra looked at her. The three young people were confused by what happened.

...***...

"What's? So Dion made Zahra like this?"

"Yes, Bi. Even Zahra had been unconscious for four days, we were very worried about her situation," Rio replied as he was.

While those discussed are enjoying cookies made by Bi Zaida. It just so happened that the woman made a lot of cookies yesterday and one of them was Zahra's favorite cookies as a child.

"Thank God he still survived, because before Dion to Jakarta. He promised himself that he would eliminate Zahra and Raisha. It is tragic the fate of his family, Mas Johan. Though Dion was only Adhitama's adopted son, but like a nut forget skin. We neighbors were eager to report the incident, but they threatened us. Finally we decided to shut up and pretend we didn't know anything."

Zaida glanced at Zahra at a glance and continued her story "Every night, we hear the voices of someone moaning from Mas Johan's house. But we are powerless to demand justice. As I and the others were holding a rally, suddenly Raisha and Zahra ran towards us with tears in their eyes. They just cry while pointing at the house.

"We were confused, we just carried them home. And we were all surprised by what we saw, it happened. We could only incline Raisha and Zahra who were crying nonstop. We were the ones who took care of Zaskia's funeral, while Dion and Hana were going to throw Zakia's body away." Zaida cried herself remembering that.

Zaida told him everything he knew, including the part Zahra said. That's right guessing! Zahra was still injured when she peeled off the dark incident.

Zaida immediately wiped away her tears as Zahra turned her head towards him.

"Crying aunt?"

"Engga, Honey. Aunty just looked at you as big as now. How's it? Cookies good?"

"certainly. Aunty cookies are always number one in this village. I'll get 2 kilos, Bi? Want me to share the same house people in Jakarta."

"Yes, Honey. Aunt make it." Zaida chose to change the conversation because Zahra was already in the chat. "Where are you going to go?"

"At the hotel it seems, Bi," replied Rizki.

"Nope. We're not gonna sleep in a hotel, we're gonna sleep in papa's!"

"House must be dirty, dusty. Kasian your brother, they must be tired. You guys just stay here, my son's room is empty, he's in his room" Zaida suggested.

Zahra shook her head, insisting she wanted to spend the night in her old house. Although he had to be ready when something suddenly hit him.

"I can clean it up, it looks like the dust ain't too thick."

Rio and Rizki widened their eyes, not thick how? From the outside it is already visible if the house is very dirty, it is impossible if someone cleans the house and the dust becomes a little.

Zahra still shook her head after Rizki's words, she remained steadfast with her wishes.

"If you don't want to, let me be alone!" Zahra's voice rose and he had already taken a standing position. Just about to step up, Zahra felt that her body was currently floating.

Rio instantly brought Zahra's body outside, while Rizki couldn't believe what Rio was doing. "Bang ...."

Zaida restrains Rizki who wants to follow Rio, the woman gives a key. That must be Johan's house key.

"If you need something, just come here" Zaida said with a smile, then he gave the setoples mini cookies that Zahra liked. From a small Zahra already likes to eat snacks, in the house there is certainly nothing that can be used as a snack, even if there must be stale.

"Thank you." Rizki smiled as she received the key and the snack.

...***...

It's been three days that the Ario brothers have been living in Johan's house, it feels strange. They sensed that there was an aura of its own lodged in the house. Naturally, in the house there has been a murder incident several years ago.

They are surprised when they first enter the house, the house is very clean away from their minds if a lot of thick dust and cobwebs.

Zahra smiled faintly as Rio brought her in. He was convinced that his mammary spirit inhabited the house. Seen the silhouette of someone in the corner of the room, as the girl turned around—a woman in a green dress looked at them with a smile.

The three of them occupied one room, Zaskia's room. The bed in the room was big. During these three days, Zahra to and fro using a Tiffany wheelchair, the wheelchair is still clean, rust-free. Like always groomed.

Zahra found some items that could be used as clues. He finds an obsolete tablet in Tiffany's room and some letters that Zahra had taken. The letter was stored in a brown map that was on the shelf under the closet. He is suspicious of it. Zahra hid the item in her bag, she did not want her brother to interfere with the matter. This case must be investigated to the fullest. Until now Zahra had not known Dion's motive, except for the matter of the treasure. But he believes there is something else behind it all.

When her two brothers were also not in the room, Zahra also rummaged through her mammary room. She found her mother's album, Zahra brought it to her brother. He ransacked Zaskia's old closet first. Zaskia's clothes were still neat there, nothing had changed when she had left. In the clothes, Zahra's hand touched something stiff and it was taken away. There Zahra found a chocolate map. She's curious. She was forced to squat downstairs to tear apart the lower clothes. There he found three other chocolate maps.

After finding the map he returned to tidying up his actions and returned to sitting in a wheelchair. He put it in his bag before his brother knew what he had found.

Zahra is currently enjoying her own television show. However, not the television that he enjoyed, he instead daydreamed. He misses the warm atmosphere of this family, the family that raised him, took care of him from childhood.

...***...

Two little girls were fighting over a rectangular object with various buttons.

"Sir, I want to see Doraemon. I'm not really watching Naruto."

"Huhh .. how Naruto knows!"

Then there was another remote scramble. But who would have thought if the tip of the remote that Raisha was holding suddenly came off and finally the remote was tapping on her sister's forehead. Sobs began to sound, the confused Raisha finally rubbed her sister's forehead. His forehead was bruised, it must have hurt a lot.

"Cup ... cup. Don't cry dong de. Later papa sama mami angratin brother .. stop yes," persuaded Raisha, the girl pengucir two right left was trying to calm her sister, but instead of stopping—isak crying was getting louder.

"Are you sick, Dek? Sorry brother, yes ...?" Raisha said softly as she gently rubbed her sister's forehead, her eyes looking at the remote that had fallen under the table, then an idea flashed through her head.

Raisha squats under the table, then lifts up a snack jar. "Remots are naughty huh, Dek. Let brother hit ya, the remote?" Raisha takes the jar, hits it on an innocent remote.

Zahra watched her brother, she wiped her tears and squatted with a whim. Occasionally wiping the thick liquid coming out of his nose, rubbing it slowly with the tip of the shirt. The little girl goes along to pick up the jar, then smashes it into the remote, alternating with Raisha.

Either Zahra was too strong to hit or what, obviously, the jar was now scattered. It was also in disarray.

Raisha was amazed to see Zahra. "Eh, deck, can break gini. Great you." The butterfly-shirted girl showed her two thumbs to her sister.

Zahra ignored Raisha's chatter, her eyes twinkling at the contents of the jar splattered. A red curved tube-shaped food was in front of him. The food he always craved, the food he always craved, the food he once stared at from behind a glass jar. And now, this food was in front of him. Zahra immediately took the food and put it in her mouth. Chew it cheerfully.

Risha who saw Zahra enjoying the food finally took part in the tasting.

Haven't had five mouthfuls, the food went into their mouths—both of them were already crying. The difference is, Raisha cries while putting her finger in the mouth, like eating sunduk candy. Zahra put the food back in again, chewing it while sobbing.

A woman and a man ran from the kitchen in a hurry, they were worried ever since they heard the sound of a broken item.

"Geez!" They were shocked to see the fragments of the jar among their children. They lifted the two up, sat them on the sofa.

The man looked at his wife. "You calm them down first, let me get them a drink."

"Darling ... get your fingers out!"

Raisha. "Marine, Mum ...."

"So soon, papa's got some water, all right." His gaze turned to the other child who was struggling to go down again, his finger pointing at the food he had devoured.

"Mommy, will ...."

"Don't, Honey. It's not your food!"

...***...

"Hey, daydream. What's wrong, si?"

Zahra smiled, looking at Rio who was now sitting beside her.

Zahra shook her head briefly, returning to watch television. "Gue just miss the warm atmosphere of this house."

Rio embraced his sister, then kissed her cheeks and temples. "So your clothes have been cleaned. Tomorrow is our last day in Bandung and last we will be Raisha. We'll go home tomorrow!"

"Yes, Brother."

"Tumben lo watch soap operas, usually also ogah."

"Pengen aja."

Rizki came in and sat in front of the two.

"A long time, brother?" Zahra took the plastic bag that Rizki had just placed. Check out their dinner this time.

"Far too warteg here, I just met on the side of the road big, tuh. Tau gini mending delivery as usual."

"Udah-ud. Eat well, I'll take a little water." Rio stood up, walking towards the kitchen.

Rizki and Zahra were silent in her position, but the girl's hand distributed the package to her two brothers.

Rio came with a teapot and a glass. The man returned to his position beside Zahra. "Not eaten?" ask her while raising an eyebrow.

Zahra smiled faintly, shook her head later. "Wait for brother dong, he-he."

Rio's scrambling his sister's hair because of the anxiety. The three ended up eating the rames rice at the same time. Rizki also asked for more rice and more side dishes, because he knew if he and his two brothers ate large portions.
