Reyna paced here and there when the time had shown at five in the afternoon. From noon Lala did not give news if she was going to come home late. And, when Reyna tried to contact Lala's cell phone was off.
This was the first time Lala had worried him. Previously Lala would tell Reyna in advance if she would stop by somewhere to buy something, or there were additional lessons that allowed her to come home late. However, this time Lala had no news at all.
"Where, Reyn? Belom any word from Lala?" ask grandma.
"No, Grandma. Lala doesn't usually come home late, Grandma."
"You need to be more assertive with that kid, Reyn. Let's not let him start dating until he forgets time!" accuse mami.
"No way, Mi. As Reyna knows, Lala doesn't have a boyfriend. Lala usually comes home on time, Mi. Every three o'clock, he's home. Instead Reyna was worried if something happened to Lala." Reyna was very worried about the situation.
"Calm down, Reyn. It's probably a low-batt phone." Grandma tried to think positively.
Even though Lala and herself had no blood relation, they were already very close like siblings who cared for and cared for each other.
Lala is a sister, a friend, and a good friend to Reyna. He was always there when Reyna needed help. Lala can also be a good listener when Reyna needs a friend to share her complaints, although Lala cannot give advice.
This can be understood because Lala is still a child who is just a teenager who certainly does not know about the problems of married life. However, the child is quite independent when compared to a child his age. Not once did Lala deny what Reyna and grandmother ordered.
When Reyna looked outside, she saw a car parked in her yard. A car that is no stranger to who the owner is.
Reza and Abiyu are seen coming out of the car. Then they walked closer towards the terrace where Reyna was currently.
"Assalamu'alaikum!" papi Reza said upon arrival on the porch of the house.
"Goddessalam!" said Reyna and immediately shook his father-in-law's hand by sticking the back of the hand to his forehead.
"But, go inside first huh, Reyn? About what you asked this morning with Papi--you can ask that directly to Abiyu. It was clearer than Papi explained. Papi believes you're mature enough to take the best path forward!" reza then walked into the house.
Reyna frowned, as a sign of not understanding what her father-in-law said. Reyna looked in wonder at Reza who moved away from the view and left the two of them on the front porch.
Reyna turned her gaze towards Abiyu who was still faithfully standing before her, waiting for the cue from the owner of the house.
"Please sit down, brother!" said Reyna who tried to be friendly, who then sat down to the bench next to her, after Abiyu nodded and sat down on the other bench.
"Where was that at the police station? Does Jono want to tell you about who told him to, brother?" ask Reyna to the point without offering her a drink first.
"Yes ..he admitted that the one who told him was Rangga's ex-girlfriend, her name was Princess," Abiyu said.
"Daughter!" exclaimed Reyna who was so gasped to hear the name of the Princess called.
Reyna did not expect if the Princess after all wanted to hurt Rangga, because it used to be seen if the Princess really wanted her husband to return to her.
What is the motive of the Princess to harm Rangga! inner Reyna wondered.
Her chest felt tight considering the death of her husband that had to end tragically in an unnatural way. He wondered why the Princess always tried to destroy her marriage with Rangga. Even just for a moment he felt the happiness of having a complete small family. Now lost is the hope that he once hung to the owner of the universe and all its contents.
His eyelids began to cultivate tears that were about to break, but as much as he could hold them, so as not to see how fragile he was in front of the man beside him.
"You're patient, Reyn, the Princess will be found soon" Abiyu tried to comfort Reyna as she watched the grief in the eyes of the woman she loved in silence.
Hearing Abiyu Reyna's words to remember something. "Sister Abi, do you know where Jono's hiding place is?"
"Emm. I'm sorry, Reyn! When you met Jono near the banyan twins that afternoon, I was actually there. I was following you. Then after you came home I followed Jono until he was in the house of a woman, " said Abiyu honestly.
"So all this time Abi's brother followed me?" asked Reyna in a slightly raised tone.
"I'm sorry, Reyn. I just want to take care of you without bothering you, " Abiyu said softly.
"What did you do that for? I can take care of myself, brother!" Reyna was irritated and increasingly clueless with Abiyu's actions.
"It's all because Abiyu's son cares about you Reyna!" said the grandmother who suddenly appeared from inside while carrying a tray containing a cup of warm tea for Abiyu.
Grandma put her tray on the table that gave Reyna distance from Abiyu. "Let's have a drink, son!" grandma says.
"Thank you, Grandma!" Abiyu took the cup from the table and gulped it down slowly.
Grandma sat on the long bench that was in front of them. Reyna felt guilty for deliberately not giving Abiyu a drink so that she would not linger in her house.
"I think now is the time to tell Reyna the truth, son Abi!" grandma said as she looked towards Abiyu.
Time to tell the truth? What do you mean by words, Grandma? It means true my guess all along right, there are papi, grandma, and brother Abi hide from me! reyna's inner being was getting curious.
"The last seconds before Rangga lost consciousness, Rangga left a message to Abi's son, Reyn."
Grandma tried to start what Abiyu was difficult to say.
"What message? Why didn't you tell me a long time ago? Why are you just now about to tell me that!?" Reyna is upset that she is the only one who does not know her husband's last message.
"Calm down, Reyn ...," Grandma tried to calm Reyna who was starting to get emotional and was about to cry.
Flashback.
Ciiiiiiiiitttttttttt ... Braaakkkkk!
There was a single accident that resulted in a car crashing into the road barrier.
Abiyu immediately pulled over his car when he saw the incident in front of him. Then he got out of his car into the crowd in front of him.
His net gasped as he watched the figure of the man who was the victim of the single accident. The ladder!
Instantly he approached the ill-fated car and approached the driver.
"Rangga, hang on for a second. I'll take you to the hospital!" abiyu.
"A-- somebody sabotaged my car!" Rangga.
"Sabotage!?" pekik Abiyu was surprised.
Rangga nodded slowly.
"Well .. I will say this to the authorities!" abiyu.
"M-I'm sorry, I took Reyna, from you!" rangga said with great difficulty.
"Getted!? Whatchu mean?" abiyu asked in surprise.
"I-I asked grandfather back then!" rangga said stammeringly, "T- Please protect Reyna when I'm not around! I-I brought back your Reyna pa-da!" instantly Rangga was unconscious after saying that.
It was witnessed by people who were at the scene. Then the ambulance and police arrived. Rangga was immediately rushed to the nearest hospital.
Off Flashback.
"No! Abi must be lying! Rangga couldn't possibly speak like that!" Reyna was in shock and shouted in disbelief after hearing Abiyu's words, "You guys must be lying! That's not possible! I'm not going to peecaya ...."
Reyna let out her emotions while crying hysterically, until shortly she fainted.
