Butterfly Night But Virgin
194. Jony?!
"We're here waiting for someone to come soon. This person claimed to know about the true origin of Sumi," Rayyan said in a flat voice, but looked very authoritative.
Instantly, the room became quiet. They are dissolved in their own thoughts.
Sumi and her mother stared at each other. There is a glimmer of hope in Sumi's heart to find out who her two biological parents really are.
While Sumi's mother felt a dilemma. On the one hand, it feels happy if Sumi finds her biological parents. But, on the other hand also feel afraid of losing Sumi who already loved him. If Sumi had met her parents, she might no longer be able to meet her adopted daughter. Perhaps also, if both Sumi's parents find out that she and her children are hitchhiking on Sumi, they will be evicted from this house. But that doesn't matter to Sumi's mother. Sumi's mother was just afraid of not being able to meet Sumi again.
Sumi's mother loved Sumi too much, never even distinguishing Sumi with her other children. To Sumi's mother, Sumi is the most precious jewel in her heart and life.
While the Sumi sisters looked surprised to hear Rayyan's words. Except for Yuniar who already knew about this secret when his mother went to the hospital. From Rayyan's words, the Sumi sisters could understand that Rayyan meant that Sumi was not their siblings. There is indeed a difference between Sumi and them, because Sumi's face is not as beautiful as the other siblings. There is no resemblance to his other brothers.
But the Sumi sisters never suspected it, because they felt their parents loved Sumi more than they did. But they understood that, and did not feel jealous of Sumi at all. Because Sumi is an understanding child. Before they told their parents, Sumi had already done it and cared for and loved them as her sister. Therefore, they were very respectful and appreciative of their eldest brother
"So, is it possible that big, Sumi will meet her two biological parents, sir?"ask Sumi's mother to vent.
"I don't know for sure. Because this person did not want to say anything if he had not met Sumi in person, "that Rayyan made the room go back to silence.
The sound of the house bell broke the silence that occurred. A waiter opened the door. There was an old grandmother and two Andi men on the left right of the old grandmother. Both of Andi's men took the old grandmother because her body was a little weak because of drunkenness on the trip. Andi who saw his men bring a grandmother approached the grandmother, then replaced his men memapah grandmother to sit on one of the sofas.
"Sir, where's Sumi? The kid you found on the bus?"she asked Andi, then looked at all the young women in the room.
Andi looked for a photo of Sumi on her phone, a photo before Sumi had plastic surgery, and then showed it to her grandmother, "This is the picture, Grandma,"
The old granny's eyes glazed over as she looked at Sumi's photo, "She looks a lot like her mother," said the old granny, then looked back at Andi, "Where is she now, Mister?"
"He had plastic surgery. Let's see this grandma!"he said he showed photos of stage by stage Sumi undergoing plastic surgery, until finally his face like today.
"So.. "the old granny did not continue her words, spread her gaze and stopped at Sumi, "Ka... You are Sumi?"the grandmother asked pointing at Sumi.
"Yes. This is Sumi. Sumi Sumarti's. My husband and I gave it that name because on the bedong when we found it there was a embroidery of that name. We found him in Akas Jaya's car.. Dated five September year two thousand, Tuesday, "said Sumi's mother who still remembers clearly, when and where she and her husband found Sumi.
"really. It was the name given by his parents. And from the bus, the date, the month, the year and the day you mentioned are all right, "that grandmother with teary eyes, "Do you have a birthmark?"
"I have a birthmark on the soles of my feet.."
"Red color?"the granny asked cutting off Sumi's words. Sumi nodded and showed a birthmark on the soles of her feet.
"So, if we could find out. How's the story going until Sumi gets left on the bus?"rayyan asked politely after the grandmother looked calm
"The story is long, sir. But I'll tell you. I have four sons. Sumi's father was the fourth child, the youngest. In the past, our family was the richest family in our subdistrict. My husband and I share the inheritance fairly. My second son chose to complain to the city, while the other three remained in the village and lived under the same roof with me and my husband. Developing farms, cattle ranches and plantations. We lived well together and were happy, even though we only lived in the village,"
"One day, my second son came home from the city and asked my other children to lend me their land certificates. With a reason to develop the company he founded in the city. My children investigated my second son's efforts in the city which turned out to be a loss, and the development from the beginning was not very good either. So, my other children are not willing to lend me their land certificates. Afraid that my second son's business will go bankrupt. If that happens, then we will all fall into poverty due to having to pay the company debt. Moreover, my second child was arrogant to my other children. Never even wanted to take my son-in-law and granddaughter home,"
"Just one Sunday after my second child returned to the city, that night I woke up in the middle of the night to hear Sumi crying. I was shocked to see flames everywhere. I woke up my husband, but he was like a fainted man. I shouted for my children, grandchildren and daughter-in-law, but no one said anything. Finally I took Sumi who turned out both her parents also like fainting. As the fire got bigger, I came out of the house carrying Sumi,"
"I cried silently in shock at the sight of my entire family being grilled before my eyes. The villagers could not put out the fire that was too big. When I want to ask the neighbors for water, I overheard two people calling my son who was living in the city and said their job was done and managed to take all the land certificates and eliminate his entire family. I was shocked to hear that. I finally took Sumi away. Sell the jewelry I wear to fulfill our lives,"
"However, one week after that, I heard all the land we had was sold by the ungodly boy. And finally I left Sumi on the bus because I felt like I would not be able to give Sumi a decent life. Until now, I only stayed hitchhiking to a kind citizen who gave me shelter" explained the grandmother with tears.
Everyone in the room was also sad to hear the story of Sumi's son. And also felt angry at the grandmother's second child.
"Truly heart, a brother and a child, burning brothers, nephews and both parents themselves just to get the treasure" Andi said.
"God is Most Fair. He will not let the ungodly child be happy, "said the grandmother full of hatred and anger that radiated in her eyes and face.
"That means your grandmother's son is a businessman, right? If you may know, what is the name of the grandmother's child?"asked Rayyan who was very curious. Who is that cruel man? The one who killed his entire family included both his parents just for the sake of obtaining the treasure. That's what's in Rayyan's heart.
"Name Junedi. But in town, she changed her name to Jony, "that old granny.
"Jony?!"
