Andara's Revenge
Too Late

If only time can be replayed, of course humans will not know the meaning of late.

🔥🔥🔥

Andara furrowed her eyebrows. His neck was still painful even though the wound had been cleaned and treated. His body temperature was rising, but he felt cold. You roll her tired body in a blanket, not energized to do anything.

"Ra, don't you come?" Natha appeared behind the door. After last day came the invitation to coffee, tonight came another invitation dugem. Kin seemed to have a lot of free time in Jakarta, very different when he was in Johor.

Without even bothering to turn around, Youara muttered in response. His mouth is hard to open. "No."

"Lo ngehindarin Kin, huh?" Natha's question sounded probing. "Ladian is fine, the verdict should also be fine, dong, Ra."

Andara grimaced among all the discomfort in her body. He wiped his sweat-filled forehead. "No, kok. Just tired of it."

The sound of the horn interrupts, coming from the front of the house. They both know who is coming. "So .. you're not coming, are you?" Natha asked again, and Andara nodded in response. "Well, I'm cabs first, yeah."

After the front door was closed, Natha's departure was empty. Sepi like gripping so you have trouble breathing. He then limped to sit, leaning on the bed, while looking from the front camera of the phone. The wound looks swollen. Maybe this is what causes fever. Shit, the kerambit is not rusty, huh? It's not funny that he's tetanus with his own knife.

Youara closed, trying to lower the thump in the chest. Though only hearing the sound of Kin's car horn, he's been stubborn. How about meeting in person try? Suddenly frozen like undead maybe, huh?

She was not feeling good with Kin. The guy was used to her, and she seemed to still be hurt. What you say friends should not be selfish and he who invites Kin to be friends, he should not be selfish. After repeatedly typing and deleting messages, she sent a message to Kin.

Andara Ratrie: Kin, sori did not follow. So sleepy.

Andara biting lips. The reason is strange, right? He wanted to delete the message, but Kin had already read it. His chest grew louder as Kin was seen typing the message.

Kin Dhanandjaya: Relax, Ra.

Your hands have ruffled your own hair. Two words of reply from Kin alone was able to break his heart. It is difficult if the person is gone, but the feeling still remains. Basic failed move on! Andara curses herself and rolls her body back in a blanket. He better get some sleep.

Elsewhere, in a car that was stopped at a red light, Kin was still watching the phone screen, waiting for an answer from Andara. However, there was no sign that the message would be answered. Kin then put the phone back in the drawer. "Why can't she come, Nath?"

Natha looked over while looking at her face. "Andara mean lo?"

Kin.

"Oh, he said tired. From the group's work it's possible." Natha raised her shoulders and returned her gaze to the street crowded by the vehicle lights.

Kin laughed softly while snorting. Tired? Andara told him to get sleepy, not tired. Group work? Which group work? The two with the former, you mean? Uh, they're either ex or they're still dating, anyway? Kin pulled lips. After all, hasn't this week already entered the semester break?

"Lo, laugh at yourself, anyway? It's weird!" natha looked back while shuddering.

"No, it's okay. Why are we both alone, huh? For a long time the accusation of the Son was getting worse to me." Kin shook his head, laughing at his reasoned accusations.

Natha's grunting turn. "Ge-er very lo, Bang. Yes, this is me ajakin Ocha deh let rame."

The girl grabbed her phone and called Rossa. Kin did not hear exactly what they were talking about. Ten o'clock in the night and the streets were still crowded. Mind raging. Kin had thought that his return to Jakarta could improve relations with Andara. Apparently not, there was no progress.

***

The ringing of a roaring phone made Andara forced to open her eyes and inching to reach for the object. He glanced at the wall clock, almost four in the morning. If you do not forget to turn off the phone ring, of course his sleep is not disturbed like this. Andara will already be angry with the caller. However, he became stunned to see the name listed. It's not unusual for Vina to call in the early hours. What's new? 

"Hello, Vin," said Andara in a heavy tone. He was still sleepy and his life was not yet perfectly fused.

The voice from across sounded crowded and noisy. "Hello, Ra," call Vina. The girl then called out her name over and over again like a panic. You can hear Vina's voice containing a stifled cry. "Please, please. I met Buana, he was hit by a mob for hitting people. I tried to hold them and say Buana's my friend, but Buana's hunting bonyok."

"Continue?"

Andara can hear Vina terbatas explain. A breath that was drawn many times was heard.  "Gue doesn't know what this is?!"

This phone just bothers. He doesn't care what happens to Buana, seriously. You close your eyes, want to sleep again. Why would Vina ask him, anyway? The answer is only one. "Yes, justin. He's the one who crashed, let him take responsibility. I don't have to go back, go home. Why are you still wearing this clock?"

"The new cave back overtime keeps stopping by for coffee, there's a lot of people on the side of the road. I thought what the hell, uh turned out to be Buana. You know, Buana's motorbike is easy to recognize."

Vina is still full of energy explaining that the girl is in the hospital, and does not know the contact number of the Buana family that can be contacted because the boy's phone is dead. Andara heard without comment. Aware of being silenced by him, Vina called out anxiously. "Lo still hears me, right?" ask Vina for a while before talking to someone for a while. "Ra .. who was hit just now. Innalady. Die me! People are getting more emotional looking at me. Well, how's this?"

Andara muttered and was about to fall back asleep. "Lo also did a show please help him, just stay. Let him face the masses. Tell Buana it's responsibility."

"If the Buana I can talk to, why do I ask the contact of the people of the same house you?!" Vina groaned softly, making Andara open her eyes again. "If Buana is not bad, I also do not want to interfere, bagusan also go home. This is Buana at IGD, Ra. Coma!"

Cold ambushed the nape of Youara, making him reflex immediately sit down. "Seriously lo?"

"Well, why am I joking at four in the morning? Would you like another birthday, would you give me prank?! I was asked by the police, now the crowd also asked Buana to me. I don't know anything. The wallet does not exist. I also don't know where his house is. Help me, Ra!" vina's cry began to sting and hysterical.

The girl then mentioned the name of the hospital that made Andara get up and wear her jacket. He dropped a bag containing some important needs and he immediately ordered a taxi. This is for Vina. Even if he came today, he came for Vina who needed help.

Before long, the passenger door in front opened and Natha got off. The girl's eyes narrowed towards him.  "Rho? Why are you on the morning terrace blind?" natha asked as she opened the gate. The surroundings were still very quiet, and a little commotion could wake the neighbors.

Andara glanced at the mobile phone, the taxi ordered had entered the complex. He scratched his head while looking at Natha. If Natha was with Kin, then what's in the car now is Kin? He only memorized the red Kin car that used to be often used. Andara grimaces thin. "Wait for a taxi."

"Well, take a taxi? Same with Kin sono." Natha pointed to the car earlier whose windshield had gone down and the inside lights were turned on. Kin is right there. The guy saw it and your heart started pounding hard.

Thank goodness the taxi was booked up so that you do not need to talk much. He tried to raise a reasonable eyebrow to reprimand Kin and passed Natha on the fence. "No need, it's up to the cab" he said quickly while pulling heavy legs. A car with Kin would be very awkward especially without any mental preparation at all. Don't forget, his feelings are still pol-polling for the guy.

"Where are you going, Ra?" Natha was still watching him.

Andara winking. He had not thought of what to answer but his mouth first said without control. "Hospital. There's an accident friend."

"Where?" 

Natha's question is what only Andara silenced and she immediately took a taxi. Without being answered as well, Natha sooner or later must have known who had the accident. Andara leaned her head. His eyes closed again as the vehicle drove down the road to the hospital. In silence, Andara blasphemed her own heart. What the hell did he say there was an accident friend? If that's Buana why? Kin has broken up from him. Muscle base wire, iron bone, heart pudding puyo!

Taxis are speeding past rows of residential settlements, passing through the streets of the city that is still quiet, passing street sweepers who have been on the move so early. When Andara reached the hospital, the sky was clear and she found Vina hugging her knees in front of the IGD. "Vin, are you okay?"

Vina raised her head and immediately hugged her. The girl's crying came back. "When we have a false judicial practice and we know that being a witness is risky. Why should I be a witness now?!"

Andara's hand started patting Vina's shoulder to calm the girl down. "Yes, patience. Actually I also do not know the contact of the Buana family. Where's hapeenya?"

Vina reached into a plastic and gave it to Andara. "Gue tried to live but needed a password," explained Vina with a pale face and tired eyes.

Andara nodded and tried to enter the six numbers she once knew to be the opening key numbers. The phone was sparkling, the number sign entered was correct. He tried to find contact with the name of the house or home, but nothing. Papa or mama's writing is also not in contact. Why did he just realize that those names weren't in this phone book, anyway?

Andara's choice eventually led to one of the Marionette members. He called Indra up to three times and was not picked up. You try to contact the others, Choky. Luckily Choky picked up her phone. The man also promised to tell the others.

"Udah, calm down. Her friends are coming soon, okay." Andara re-embraced Vina who looked hit hard.

"This gue is a lifestyle journalist not a war journalist. Where have I ever seen kayak gini," muttered Vina staring blankly at the park in front of them.  The girl's mouth was clucking softly. "Lo didn't see how Buana was, last night. Her face is out of shape, Ra."

Speaking of Buana, she doesn't know the guy's condition. "Where is he now?"

"ICU." Vina pointed quietly at the room across the garden. They both fell silent. The atmosphere of the hospital began to light up, some nurses then passed by. 

From the end of the corridor, Andara saw the arrival of Choky and Indra who were scattered. Tense rails shaded in the face of the two. "Where's Buana?" choky asked as she approached where they were sitting.

"In the ICU" replied Andara.

"Why did he get in an accident, Ra? Where did it come from?" This time, Indra asked.

Andara was surprised to be asked that way. He shook his head while raising his shoulders. He looked at Indra's curious eyes. "Gue doesn't know, who found him beaten by Vina. Vina called me because Buana's hape is dead and needs his family's contact. I'm the same, don't know also the Buana family contacts."

Indra then moved away and fiddled with the phone. That guy was like trying to contact his acquaintances. You can see Indra repeatedly clucking or scrambling hair after talking to someone. "Why?" askanya while approaching Indra.

"There's nobody in his house, Ra. Just a maid," hiss Indra began to rile. "Gue's got his sister's number, but it's definitely school, right?"

"Don't pity her again for school, shock later. Call Bonyoknya just."

Indra whispered softly that only she could hear. "His father was arrested for corruption yesterday. That's what a lot of news on TV."

You froze for a moment. She remembered Buana's poignant look as she came to the house and stared at the television screen. So, the office was Buana's father? His breath felt choked. "Try to send a message to make him yokap, deh."

The word nyokap makes Indra turn. The guy looked up and down like he couldn't believe it. "What is true?! She ran away from home six months ago, Ra. You don't know, do you?"

Indra's last sentence was like slapping his consciousness. Almost a year he was with Buana, telling a lot, planning a lot, laughing a lot, but he didn't know anything about the guy. He never wanted to go to that guy's house. He was not ready to get to know his girlfriend's family. There is excessive worry and you are afraid, what if the family does not like it?

You bite your lips, dragging your feet to the front of the ICU room. There is a sense of guilt and pain begins, beating the wound in the neck that has been covered with plaster. But it's all too late. He learns too late that Buana is as broken as himself.

🔥🔥🔥

Gaes, thank you for your faithful on this lapak. For those of you who want IG, please help this chapter is far from the plan. 😂

In the future, I can't be sure if I'm going to publish Wednesday or Saturday. Because this has entered the final chapters, and do not know why my mood is deteriorating, my health is broken.

Hopefully I can finish Andara's Vengeance well.

Why is Buana sad, huh? Yeah, because he's the main character. Pick it up, the same dear Buana is also a little. You are too fixated by his evil than his good. All because of the consequences. 🤭
