Riko took the file from my hand. “What's up? What do you want from me? Just tell me what you think... don't be convoluted!’’ he said it after he finished reading it.


“Ok. What comes to your head when you read it?’’ ask her who still holds Aiko's file.


“Why did he survive? That's all!”


“You're right. Nanda wants us to ask him that? Why he survived the incident. And Vishnu Pradana..there must be something he knows.”.


I started the car engine after Riko nodded her head signaling that she had understood the question I asked. And we're out of the office complex. Riko who had just focused on seeing the files I gave immediately said, “Misya, is not the address listed in the file is on Jl. A gem? Why did you miss the playback?”


“...We're going to that orphanage first. There's something I want to make sure there!”


Orphanage. At 10:45. Monday, the 09th. Six days before the deadline.


“What does this mean?” sahut Riko when we arrived in front of my house. Both of his eyes were on someone who came out the door of the house. “Don't tell me if you want to take her?” his tone seemed to be unacceptable with the presence of Nayla in the investigation.


“Nanda told me.” My voice whispered softly. “Already, anyway you are just being ordinary.. don't overdo it..”.


“What? For what Nanda told this kind of useless thing.”.


“Let me explain... Already, already.he has come... just relax!”


“Nayla,” sahutku after he opened the car door. Riko who realized his arrival immediately moved to the back.


''Greetings know me Nayla.'' Nayla extended her hand.


''I'm Riko!''


''Thank you, I hope I can help with this investigation" Nayla said.


After their conversation is over. We left together for the orphanage according to my promise to Nayla.


***


Orphanage. At 10:45. Monday, the 09th. Six days before the deadline.


"Ehemmm, I'm Missya Alexandra. And this is my colleague Riko," my voice came out politely. His two eyes did not flinch at me at all, slowly he watched me from top to bottom.


"What's wrong? I don't remember ever dealing with the police" the elderly man told me. 


Right now Riko and I are at the orphanage where I first picked up Nayla. Mr. Yandri as security here directly reunited us with Mr. Berend—Home owner. As Nayla said, this old man was of Dutch descent. Her hair was bleached and her face was folded in. If my guess is correct, he's about 73 now.


""Even if you call it sudden, this is the first time we speak one


same other. Isn't the introduction good?'' my lips are thinly curved. ''Maybe from your name first or…. Yes, so that this conversation will feel warmer," I said.


"Don't you already know. Then, for what else was such a banter," his words sounded heavy. Even though he has long mingled with the indigenous people. However, his typical western voice was not raised at all. " What do you want? Just say!" Further.


I smiled back to respond. "Huh... alright, can the television turn on?" My gaze was fixed on the television attached to the corner of the wall. 


"Yes." he didn't flinch at me.


"See from the condition.The television seemed to have just been turned on. At least, ten or fifteen minutes ago!" My eyes are staring at him. I know he's thinking something.


"It's very strange that the coffee was there," Riko and Mr. Berend looked back at the corner of the wall at the coffee I meant. "How is it possible, the still hot coffee is not in front of you…"


"Yes, right. I was just watching at that table, his forehead wrinkled deeply. ''What's up? don't tell me that television made you come here?"


"Yes," I said quickly. "Ninety percent of us coming here are going to talk about what's on that television!"


He just stared at me seriously.


"Riko, didn't you say that boxing was held every Saturday?" I turned my body half-facing Riko who was standing behind me.


Riko nodded her head slowly trying to understand the question I was asking.


"I don't like the boxing show you mean!" Answer Mr. Berend quickly.


"No, it's not. We're just going to talk about the television show you just watched, "my voice stopped for a moment while looking at his eyes that already knew the direction the question was going to ask him. "Amelia, Amelia Earhart!"


We both just stared at each other. His lethargic lips slowly lifted. "Yes. Yes, I just saw a TV broadcast that aired Amelia Earhart," She took a deep breath. ''A few days ago I got a report from the security of the parlour that the police came here while we were on vacation. So, you were the one who came here when the incident happened to one of my managers. What does this have to do with us?"


"Hmmn.., we're just here to ask you a few questions. About Amelia. From the results of the research we did you are included in the list of people he often met. So, we hope you are willing to help with this investigation without hiding anything!"


"How do you know each other?''


''Who's up? The amelia? Or Kirana?''


''We discussed it one by one... Starting with Amelia.''


"Maybe about four years ago... Right, Amelia was not as famous as she was now. back then she came with a man named.


''Vishnu Pradana you mean?" Greet Riko from behind.


''Yes. Right, the two of them directly met me at this place. I spoke to the man, there was not much we talked about, he just wanted to leave a woman and it was Nayla. That's all.''


"What about Amelia, were you talking to her then?''


''Yes, he only said that the girl who was entrusted was his own sister. There's not much we're talking about. They just want to leave it anyway. Such a thing is common.''


''Then what about the deal you made? What means?''


''Oh that. I don't know why. Amelia just wanted her sister to be left alone... Starting from the room to the activities he does. He asked me to give him that privilege.''


''How could you not ask why?''


''You're right, only a fool doesn't ask why. But, he only wanted his sister to be treated like that! Amelia did not give any reason at all!''


''Why do you agree to it? Wouldn't it be too much to tie his sister up?''


''I don't think I need to explain where you are?''


''You mean...just because this place is a shelter? That!'' his voice came out slowly with a breath. ''Yes, this place exists for the excluded! A place where people out there don't care about their situation at all. So, I just gave a place to them. Is there something wrong with that?''


''Of course, there is nothing wrong with your good intentions.I mean Nayla!''


''What's wrong? His brother wanted it that way... After all, her brother did not ask us to torture or abandon her. He only asked that his sister not be in contact with anyone? I feel like nothing is in question there.''


''Alright. Then, how can Kirana's mother work here?''


''Amelia took him. I don't remember the time. Amelia wants Kirana to take care of Nayla.''


''Then we can ask for his data!''


"the data? Your name form?''


''Yes.''


''This place will accept anyone as long as they are sincere and willing to serve. I don't care who or where he is. While I want to be paid. I will definitely accept. Not everyone wants to live and work in a place like this.''


''Yeah, yeah, I know that. Then I want to hear the talk that you guys have been talking about all this time?''


''Kirana is not a talkative person. She is also a shy woman. There's nothing I can say about him.''


''What does Amelia do when she comes here? I know that he came a few times!''


''He came just to make a donation. There is no other interest.''


''All right, before we go... What do you think of Amelia Earhart?''


''I didn't expect it to kill myself. Though judging from his nature and behavior he is not such a person.. Amelia is a good person. I really didn't expect him to do that.''


''Alright, ''' I stood before him. ''...When I first brought Nayla here did Amelia and the man named Vishnu Pradana look familiar or how?''


Mr. Berend seemed to remember so hard. The veins on his forehead look enlarged. ''Yes, it seems that when they first came here they were so familiar! I think they already know each other.''


''Thank you very much for the explanation, '' I said then farewell.


''What do you really want to make sure of? I think the questions you asked just now are of no use!'' riko said after we got out of the orphanage. Nayla who lives in the car is still listening as if she has not been interested in entering the conversation.


''I just want to make sure that my wild thoughts are wrong!''


''Which thoughts?''


''Listen, I don't know why I feel that Vishnu Pradana is alive!''
