EMBRACE YOU: Presence & Poison
Episode 334

...

“Mother!!” I exclaimed glad to see the mother appear in the doorway that was originally closed.

“Ich. We have to get out of the airport.” Mother approached me, her eyes looking at me from top to bottom, as if making sure no one was hurt.

I nodded, despite hearing the screams out there, but I had to follow the plan Bayu had conveyed earlier.

“To avoid attention, there will be no escorting until we meet Dika.” I nodded ready.

“Maybe we should run, but mother make sure it won't overload your body.” Mother continued, looking at me seriously but there was a spotlight of attention there.

Once again I nodded, mother who saw my calm response, smiled a little and grabbed my hand.

“Ayo.” Bring along.

Mother walked in front of me, before we came out of the special room in the airport mini market, mother glanced around which was still crowded by people running around. Our hands clasped each other tightly so as not to separate while in the crowd.

After making sure no one was carrying firearms, Mother glanced at me while nodding, I can guess that it was a sign that we would join the people.

The two of us did not run, but walked quickly between the increasingly crowded crowds.

My shoulders have been nudged by people who want to quickly get away from the source of the problem behind us. I also saw some airport security officers leading us to safety.

“Why are we not directed to the exit?” My whisper panicked to see the officers not directing us to the exit.

“That means, they've mastered the door so people don't come out. Rasha's father had said that, they would block the door, but mother did not expect it to be this fast.” Mother whispered worry.

“Ayo, we're through here.” But she quickly led me down another path.

I don't remember what happened, but we passed through some narrow corridor roads and doors, joined by panicked people and ignored our bodies being swayed by the crowd. If there is a locked door, out of nowhere but you always have the key from inside your pocket.

Shortly after, the last door you opened in front of me turned out to be heading to the plane's takeoff field, because there was no crowd here, only a few airport staff who looked at us with a look of alert expression and were hiding, mother invited me to continue the fast road to the other side of the airport building.

We don't talk much but I can tell by your breath that she's just as nervous as I am.

The wind was blowing hard on our bodies. The sound of people screaming in panic was still heard inside the building.

My heart that has been pounding so hard since then feels pained when I think Bayu is overcoming a chaotic situation inside with his team.

“—This is it.” mother's voice breaks my daydream.

We were in front of a motorcycle parked not far from the plane under repair.

Then the mother took out the key of the motor, I who saw the hands of the mother trembling immediately took over.

“Let Icha use bun, this will take us to the terminal ‘kan?” I took the key from my mother's hand to put it in the keyhole of the motor.

Mother nodded, not arguing about this.

DOOR!

My mother and I were shocked to hear the sound of a gun in the building. I could feel the cold sweat rushing out of my face and palms. Unconsciously my hands were also shaking nervously.

“Oh no.” Mother sighed softly, her face was sad and nervous. Mother almost cried.

It made me realize that maybe to my concern there is nothing compared to mother. In not only there is a mother's child who is on a mission, but her husband, Rasha's father, must join Bayu.

A few minutes ago looking at the mother who was valiantly leading me out of this situation, her back seemed big to protect me. But now, to the concern of the mother can not be hidden. His shoulders shook slowly staring at the airport building.

DOR'S!

DOR'S!

DOR'S!

PRANGS!!

I think my heart will stop hearing other gunshots. Not one, but three. The screams of the people inside grew louder which added to our worries.

How'this? Bayu is inside. He was so close but considering that earlier when Bayu did not look back while leaving, I was sure that he wanted me to follow his plan. But, is that the only one that's best? By pushing me away? At least, if I were here, though worried, I would quickly meet him once all this was done.

I surrendered.

“Mother, we can't go.”

“Tapi—”

DOR!!

“Arrrggghhh..!”.

I gasped in shock because the voice sounded so close, as if it was in the building behind us. But before I could respond to all that, suddenly my mother pulled my hand towards the boxes arranged in the corner. Cardboard that contains airplane part speartparts.

“Sstt...” Mother forbids me to make a sound.

I frowned, why should we hide, but the next second my question was answered hearing the sound of the footsteps of some people getting closer from the direction we came earlier.

“You're sure someone came here earlier?”

“Iya. I saw him just now. Two women came here.”

“You know, sir will be angry if we waste time like this, while we have to move the goods as soon as possible.”

“I'm so sure! One of them is similar to the person you are looking for.”

“Sial!! It's all so troublesome because we got caught by them. But our numbers are many, they will be overwhelmed.”

“Oh view! That's right what I said! There's a key hanging on the motor. They'll run away from here.”

I'm too careless! I put it up.

Mother squeezed my hands tightly, she was as nervous as me, we both held our breath and did not move.

The two people were still near the motorbike, apparently checking that the motorbike was correct for the escapees.

“It looks like they are hiding here.” Mother and I stared at each other nervously at one of the men's guesses.

Tap

Tap

Tap

They no longer spoke, but I could hear the sound of their shoe steps going around checking.

I looked down, closed my eyes, thought.

What we should do. If we get caught, maybe we can get shot.

Nah!

At least I have to protect you.

Tap

Tap

The sound of their shoes was getting closer to us, but my brain couldn't think of anything. My heart sank because I was so nervous.

Tap

I could feel them in front of the boxes blocking us.

Whahuh?

What am I supposed to do?!

Now I can only think of Bayu.

Boo!

Sruk—
