Old wounds [2]

The man who carried it said, "If you want lollipops and chocolates, wait here. Om will buy you a big lollipop and the most delicious chocolate!"

The innocent Zia simply nodded with a smile. Slowly, the man left Zia alone. Zia was slowly frightened. "K-kok lonely bangett, huh?? Mamaa, Zia kafartt..."

"Sstt, don't be afraid." Suddenly a voice sounded startling Zia. Zia saw that Ivan, he settles in and saw Zia sitting quietly with ties on her feet.

"Bivan?" to Zia's astonishment, Ivan approached and immediately shut Zia's mouth. "Shut your mouth, Cici. Speak slowly. What are you doing here? Who was that guy?" ask Ivan.

"Om that's good, Van. He wants to buy me lollipops and chocolates, so I wait here," Zia replied innocently excitedly.

"Why are your legs tied up?"

"I don't know why. That said, he didn't want me to leave him so my feet were tied."

"Cici. He's a bad guy, he won't give you a lollipop or chocolate. Let's go home. Your mom and dad are waiting. I'll buy you ten chocolates and a lollipop you want if you want to come home with me now" Ivan asked.

Zia smiled then nodded, "Let's go home." They join hands and leave. Unfortunately, it's all too late. The man has gone back in. His look was emotional. "Dare to run away, huh?! Haha, I can't!"

Unable to dodge, the two boys were both trapped. Zia and Ivan's legs are tied.

"Omm, let's go."

Plaque! One slap landed on Zia's cheek. "SILENCE! Don't whine, I don't like to hear it." After slapping Zia, the man left again.

Zia who got a slap was quite strong, crying from the pain. "Don't cry, Ciii. Later Bivan will return his slap, we beat him up. Okay?" Zia nodded slowly.

They both try to get out of the bindings. Due to the very strong bond, Zia and Ivan's legs were scratched to the point of incision. Zia was crying again because she felt pain in her leg.

"Cici. calm down, I have you here. We're gonna get out of here, okay? Diem, don't move much. Don't cry, the oom will come again," persuaded Ivan while enduring the pain in his legs, Zia just silently obeyed Ivan's words.

Ivan thought of a way to escape. His feet and hands were bound, but only Ivan's right hand and Zia's left.

Ivan looked around, there was a shard of glass beside him. Ivan took the broken glass and untied his legs and hands. They managed to get out without the man's knowledge. Ivan drove Zia home and told her about the incident they had experienced.

Not until finished telling the story, Ivan felt weak because a lot of blood came out of his legs. They were both taken to the hospital for medical treatment.

"Since the incident, Zia rarely left the house. He just wants to play with his dolls. He was afraid of Zeco, Zai and Zean. He's just close to aunt. But when he started to recover, he played running around with Zai and even tripped until he fell down from the stairs. From that moment on, he forgot his past. In order to ease the burden of Zia's mind, we moved to this city" Zeva explained succinctly.

"Sorry Ivan, aunt. Ivan doesn't know that. I'm sorry that Ivan is repeating himself" said Ivan feeling guilty.

"Already, son. Om and aunty were even very grateful to Ivan's son, because Ivan's son always helped Zia in times of difficulty. Om and aunty are indebted to you, son," said Zeco.

"Ehm. I'm sorry, Van. I was rude to you earlier," said Zean who felt guilty. Ivan smiled, "Yes gakpapa, bang. Ivan knows, you must be freaking out to see Zia pass out on a cake like this."

A few minutes later, the doctor came out of Zia's room, all standing up and walking towards the doctor. "How's my brother doing, doc?" ask Zai first.

"Miss Zia is okay. He's been a little traumatized. In just a few days, he will definitely return to his normal state. For a while, let Miss Zia be hospitalized."

"Can you come in, Doc?"

"By, please. I go first" the doctor left. They went into Zia's room and saw Zia's condition. Zia was resting.

Just a few minutes inside, Ivan said goodbye to go home. Papa and Mama Zia thanked Ivan.

Ivan came out of Zia's room. Arriving at the door, Zean and Zai catch up with Ivan. "Sorry, bang Van's. I was also rude to you earlier. I also do not want your face," said Zai nyengir.

"Yes just relax. I know you're panicking about Cici. Look after Cici yee, I'm back." Zai and Zean nodded, Ivan left.

"Eh, Van. wait!" Zean was after him again. "Why, bang?"

"Lu is the same class as Zia, right? Please take care of him, yeah. If anyone dares to mess with me, he'll tell me." Ivan raised his thumb, "Aman. Relax, without being told also Ivan must always take care of Cici really."

"OK-okay.thank you again. Be careful!" the words Zean and Zai are together. After Ivan was far away, they went back inside Zia's room.

"You go home first, let papa mama be here."

"Reverse itu. Papa Mama's coming home, we'll take care of Zia here."
