Yudha and Yanto had serious talks not so long ago. Mirna called and told them to have dinner. Yanto got up from his seat. Then he took hold of Yudha's shoulder. Yudha smiled faintly in response to the friendly treatment.
Dinner is going on. Everything's going fine. But Yudha felt there was something strange about Yanto. Elisha's stepfather, kept looking at him suspiciously.
"What's up, Om? Is there still something Om wants to talk to me about?" ask Yudha.
Yanto who felt caught off guard, immediately shook his head. He smiled and said no. He instead gave up by offering more side dishes for Yudha.
"No Om. This is enough" replied Yudha softly.
"Oh yes, Yud. Until now, Auntie still remembers your first visit here. Why the hell, do you have to cover your real name?" ask Mirna suddenly. Yudha had already opened her mouth to answer, but Mirna continued to speak, "Pah, Yudha used to say his name is Andre loh. He said he was too embarrassed for me. Funny not to." Mirna chuckled as she positioned one hand covering her mouth.
Yudha and Elisha relfek exchanged glances. Only the two of them know the truth. Yudha lied thinking she was going to kill Elisha that day. But in reality, the plan was not carried out by Yudha.
"really?" yanto's Response. Then he looked at Yudha through the end of his eyes. "It turns out you can also be ashamed of Jud" he commented.
"Nothing Pah, the important thing is not to be shy!" Mirna patted the husband's shoulder gently. Back to the little laugh. He seems to like Yudha very much. Especially after knowing that Yudha was also in the same department as Elisha.
Dinner for half an hour. The time is not felt because it is filled with various chat topics. All dishes have been spent.
Yudha is seen trying to help Mirna and Elisha bring the dirty dishes to the sink.
"Oh my goodness, Yudha, you don't have to help. Elisha is quite loh," said Mirna. Trying to stop Yudha's movements. She was honestly very happy, witnessing how good a man she thought would be a future daughter-in-law.
"Yes, you deliberately think of Om who sits casually, huh?" timpal Yanto's. He's conspiring with Mirna.
"Udah, sit down Jud!" Elisha forced Yudha back to the table, and sat down before Yanto.
Yudha and Yanto are having a conversation again. To be honest, everything felt awkward for Yudha. Because Yanto kept talking about his recently deceased partner. Elisha's stepfather even mentioned Erwin's name.
"Yud, where did you buy perfume? I like the smell, too" said Yanto. He slightly inclined his head to smell Yudha.
"My father bought it." Yudha replied with a wry smile. He immediately kept his distance from Yanto.
"Oh, so..." Yanto shrugged his head.
Yudha spent another hour gathering with Elisha's family. He then immediately bade to go home. After Yudha's return, Yanto secretly invited Elisha to speak with four eyes.
"What's up, Pah?" ask Elisha, curious.
"When have you known Yudha?" Yanto immediately asked the point.
"Before I met Papah with Mamah. She was a good friend of mine when I was in High School" Elisha said with a faint smile.
"Yes... Emm..." Elisha rubbed his neck for no reason. Eventually, his brain gave him an answer. "That's because Yudha and I just made up. Our relationship is strained because there are complicated problems" he explained.
"Oh, so. Yes, you better get some sleep. There's a lecture tomorrow, right?" Yanto rubbed the top of his daughter's head. Elisha automatically nodded and immediately went to the room.
Upon arrival in the room, Elisha checked his cell phone. His pupils dilated when he saw that there were many unanswered calls from Yudha. Not yet had he called back, Yudha had already made a call.
"What's up, Yud?" ask Elisha. Put the phone in the right ear.
"El, did your father ask you about me?" yudha from across the phone.
"Just me and Papah were talking. Yes, we are talking about you" replied Elisha. It flashed in his memory about the question that the father had posed earlier. Elisha thinks his father is suspicious of Yudha. However, he had no intention of telling the real Yudha. Elisha did not want Yudha to do anything to Yanto.
"What did he say?" ask Yudha again.
"He said you were a good man. I like you very much" said Elisha. Lied.
"Is that so?.." - Yudha. He breathed a rough breath. And then ended the conversation with Elisha.
"See you tomorrow, El!" yudha said before actually ending the call.
Elisha now puts the phone on the nightstand. He stared blankly at the window. Curiosity began to gnaw on him. Elisha wanted to know what was going on between his father and Yudha.
For the sake of knowing the truth, Elisha willingly did not sleep. He's waiting for midnight. Because the girl intends to find answers in the workroom of the father.
Elisha was now in Yanto's study. He's trying to find a rough answer. Especially something related to Yudha. Nihil, the girl found nothing at all.
Elisha's eyes scanned his father's study. His attenuation was directly aimed at the tablet lying on the table. Without thinking long Elisha immediately grabbed the tablet. Checking the articles stored by Yanto.
Elisha found many articles about the murder incident that occurred two days ago. A cop named Erwin and a night woman. Their death has not been solved until now. It said in the article that police were still confused about the suspects. Police even wanted to close the case, stating that the victim committed suicide.
The name Yudha automatically crossed Elisha's mind. He suspected that Yudha had committed the murder of Erwin and the woman of the night.
"So because of this Papah was suspicious of Yudha... Butwhy? How did he know it was Yudha?" muttered Elisha who was curious.
Elisha recalls the barrage of Yudha and Yanto talk at dinner. There was one thing that made him know. It was about Yanto's question about perfume to Yudha.
'Could Yudha wear the same perfume while committing murder?' inner Elisha. He bit his lower lip. Worried about the relationship between Yanto and Yudha. Elisha did not want the two to have a disagreement. Moreover, he already knows how the identity of Yudha. His lover would immediately kill the person who dared to disturb him.
For the most part, Elisha felt that what Yudha was doing was wrong. The logic has actually protested hundreds of times. Nah! Not only the real logic, but also the bottom of his heart. Honestly, until now, Elisha was haunted by feelings of guilt to Anton. The murder incident he committed was a coincidence. At that time Elisha just felt annoyed with Anton, to accidentally release and push him into the river.
