EIGHT TARGETS

EIGHT TARGETS
36. Wilda, The Mysterious Girl


“No.  Nah!  That's slander.  The man asked for an address.  Come to think of it it was strange why that man approached me.  He must be your man to set me up, right?”  Alicia snapped furiously at Ratih's accusation.


Ratih exhales reluctantly like seeing a thief who says not to steal when his stolen goods are in his hands.  He then released a voice recording.


“You are the detective?”


“True Mbak.”


“Please steal the door lock of the northwestern library in Angkasa Jaya High School.  The teacher room is usually dipel every 7 – 8 pm and then abandoned about half an hour before being locked.  Take advantage of that opportunity to steal the key.  And remember, don't leave a trace.  Here's the face money.  If your work is successful, I will give you 3 times more than that.”


“Wah, Mbak is really generous.  Well, I will definitely do well.  But what about those key traits?  Or do I just take all the keys that are there?”


“Every key in this school is usually labeled and has a description.  However, if there is none, just take it all.”


“Good Mbak.”


The recording was cut off.  Ratih walked closer towards Alicia while exerting superior aura pressure.


“Still want to dodge?  Diana, Mutia, show me those photos!”


Diana and Mutia, 1A students, who are also Kaiser's classmates, showed pictures of Alicia ruffling Kaiser's locker.


“Wah, you must be a stalker huh.  There is no label in the locker, but you can immediately know which locker Young Master.”


“You!”  Alicia shouted furiously at Ratih's provocation.


“Alicia, stop!”  Suddenly Ms. Indri, the school's BP teacher yelled at Alicia.


“But, Mom!”


“All is clear.  Do not reason anymore!  You'll only embarrass yourself.  Follow Mom to room BP.”


Alicia could no longer say anything.  He clenched his teeth and squeezed both his hands.  He stared at Ratih with a very angry look.


“Then, excuse me ma'am to monitor our academy students.”  Dono said as he bent his head slightly lower to Bu Indri.  Dono immediately left the place, showing an annoyed expression and not wanting to know what happened to them again.


Not long after, Ms. Indri and the group with Alicia also left the class.  Seemed an expression filled with anger mixed with disappointment on Alicia's face.

“Wah, Ratih, from the beginning you were really amazing in finding information.  I didn't expect you to be able to gather all that evidence!”  Said Andika while walking to near Ratih.


“Of course.  Is information not a weapon for us business people?  Not so the prospective heiress Setiabudi Corp.?”


Andika was a little uncomfortable hearing Ratih mention her social status.  But he chose to ignore it.  He scratched his head slowly to cover his awkwardness towards the words of Ratih.


“Do you already know the woman's plan?”  Andika continued her question.


“Wah, who is the stalker here?” Andika said while laughing as if it was funny.


“Well, the senior seemed to have just coincidentally found Alicia's car parked in a suspicious spot.  And based on his recent moves that always want to disturb Young Master, inevitably we become worried.”


“We?”


“Don't underestimate the union of a member of the fan club Young Master.”  Said Ratih while looking straight into Andika's eyes while smiling mischievously while looking proud of what he said.


“Ehem, ahem.”  Ratih suddenly cleared his throat looking consciously had said things he shouldn't have.


“What's up?”  Andika who looked curious asked.


“Nothing.”  Answer Ratih briefly while turning his head.


“Back to question.  Once we learned of any suspicious moves from Alicia, Wilda went there to confirm it and that's where we got the evidence.  Then Wilda once again goes to school to record their evil plans.  Mirna and I helped with the recording from outside the school gates.  Since the distance of my house, Mirna, and Wilda was quite far from school, then I asked Diana and Mutia to come early to watch over him.”


“It was a pleasant experience huh Mutia?”


“Iya, we have just left school for the first time at 4:30.  It was still dark when we left the house.”


“But seeing the sunrise in a beautiful school environment is a truly unforgettable experience.”


Diana and Mutia interrupted the conversation between Ratih and Andika with seemingly happy expressions.


“But if I can give you the MVP title on this mission, I'll leave it to Wilda.  He really is a stalker.  He follows a veteran private detective from his home to school without being discovered.  He is truly an expert in eliminating the air of his existence.”  Said Ratih in admiration.


Wilda who heard herself being praised by Ratih, only smiled with a hint of a timid expression behind her face.


“Oh yes, about that private detective.  It was the same private detective who had been with Rihana trailing Young Master.  At first I had forgotten about it after Rihana's sudden death.  But it seems that I should make the detective deterred so as not to dare bother Young Master anymore.”  Ratih said that while smiling so evil that it made Andika who saw him immediately become shivering.

In the afternoon approaching, Kaiser was playing so cheerfully along with 2 children beside him.  Hmm, it seems less appropriate, if the other one is called a child because of his age who has been a teenager, even older and taller than Kaiser.


It was Danial who, with her innocent expression and childlike demeanor, played so cheerfully with Kaiser and Amanda, an 11-year-old girl who has just been left behind by her only family as a result of a criminal attack.


Amanda is now fully cared for by Kaiser.  He was a good and innocent child.  He was well aware of Kaiser's sincere affection for him.  Therefore, he did not want to make his Big Brother grieve by seeing him grieve. 


He often forced himself to smile and look cheerful in front of his Big Brother.  Although, he sometimes still can not stem his sadness when remembering the sudden death of his only brother, Sharif Saleh. 


Kaiser is not an insensitive person either.  She soon learns of the sadness in Amanda's heart.  However, it did not mean that he could act carelessly in handling it.  Wrong action, it could be that Amanda's heart is now fragile, broken. 


He decided to temporarily not discuss Amanda's older brother and still behave as usual in front of Amanda by showing a cheerful smile while waiting for the child to recover a little more with the time medicine.


Amidst the preoccupation of the three of them playing, came a woman who approached them and greeted them.  He is Aliska.
