Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 118 - Home
...***...
"Sorry Rei, but it looks like it'll be better if you, we take you home today." Elvina opened the conversation after a moment of silence with the clinking sound of spoons and forks clashing. "It's nothing, but we're just afraid that yesterday's events will happen again. So for your safety, it would be best if we drove you home."
Rei was silent at Elvina's words. "Come home?" Her masterpiece, which was possessed by Elvina.
"Honestly, we don't really want to make this decision, but it seems to be best to keep you safe. At least with you at home, you can have someone to talk to as long as we're gone and there's someone to take care of you."
"Well, if it's like that."
"You're not angry, are you?" Elvina.
"angry? What's for?" Rei raised his brow next to be confused.
"No, nothing." Elvina shook her head slowly. He decided not to extend this. At least Rei was willing to understand and agreed to return to his home. "Then you finish eating, you get ready. After that we go."
"OK," he said. Elvina and Rei returned at breakfast, while William remained silent with a gloomy look on his face. He still finds it difficult to accept the decision they made to bring Rei home.

Rei stopped the speed of his motorbike in front of a large and magnificent building there. Elvina and William stepped out of the cab they were riding in and paid with some money.
Rei got off his bike. He was silent beside Elvina and William, his eyes looking towards the large building that was none other than his home. Somehow there was a strange reaction to him when he saw the building in front of him. His heart ached as if in a word with a sharp dagger that scratched so deeply.
What's the matter? Why does my heart hurt when I see this place? Rei held onto his chest, he was trying to regulate his oxygen circulation. Adjust his breathing to stay calm even though the pain is getting worse.
"Let's go in" said Elvina. Rei nodded slowly, with a step that suddenly felt heavy, he walked tailing behind Elvina and William.
Elvina pressed on the front door of her doorbell. After waiting for a while, the door finally opened revealing a middle-aged woman who was a household assistant in the house.
The woman was quite surprised by the arrival of Elvina who came along with her employer's son who had been missing for a year. He even seemed so happy when he knew Rei was alive.
The woman hugged him spontaneously while crying, while Rei who was in her arms just remained silent with a confused look.
"Finally the young master is back, aunt is really worried about master. Where have you been all this time?" The woman broke her embrace. He looked up at Rei who looked confused as to how to react.
"Bi, the question will be later. Does Aunt Isyana exist?" Elvina hurried to shift the topic.
"Mrs? There, he's inside. Then please come in, let auntie call first." He hurriedly stepped inside the house with William, Elvina and Rei behind him.
"What just now was the housekeeper in your house, her name was bi Ella," Elvina told Rei. The man just nodded slowly in response to Elvina's explanation just now.
