He's Not A Bad Boy
Chapter 19 - Becoming a Suspect


The next day, Khaira was allowed to go home and undergo outpatient treatment for her burns. Since yesterday, Zafran did not say much because the girl had not yet made a decision between the two choices her father gave her.


How could Khaira have let the man who had helped her that night go to jail. On the other hand, he was also so difficult to give up the favorite school that had long been his dream, being able to get into that school alone so many sacrifices he made.


Although Khaira's situation is better than yesterday, but his family still lives with him until now and does not allow Khaira to go to school first., he said., Especially since yesterday Shaza spent the night at his classmate's house to do group assignments.


Currently, Khaira is resting in her room while watching the latest news through her mobile phone, maybe she can get the latest news about the continuation of the case that night.


Sure enough, the news of the incident that night has now appeared again. However, he was shocked by a news report that Anton, the name of the head of the motorcycle gang that kidnapped him that night, has now been released and found not guilty.


Instead, Boy was declared a suspect this time. From the information, only Boy and Khaira were at the location of the incident when the fire occurred. Evidence of a fire extinguisher was found inside the warehouse and not outside. Plus Anton's alibi at the same time the clock was recorded CCTV in a night club, so in the end Boy who has a great chance to be a suspect.


Everyone is blaspheming the man. Unlike Khaira who did see everything and became a victim. He clearly knew how the real facts were that night. However, he has no evidence to prove Boy's innocence.

"I told you, your son is a useless child, usually just a burden on the family and make the family's good name ashamed."


Boy tried indifferently to the sarcastic words of his aunt when he came to the police station with his father. However, how hard he tried to be indifferent, in fact his heart still hurt.


Boy sat in a chair facing the two middle-aged men. The arrival of the father this time as usual to free Boy before news of his mischief spread widely and made the father embarrassed. However, it seems like everything has been delayed, because the news has already aired on TV. And because of the news, now the aunt came to follow him to the police station.


"What are you, boy? Look at your cousins, they've all been successful, you? It is even the rubbish of society. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have let your father marry that jal4ng woman, have betrayed her, instead of giving birth to a litter child. You are useless!"


Boy was getting bowed in hearing word for word the dagger that pierced his chest many times mercilessly. The burn on his back that he had received that night was not even as painful as the heartache he was now feeling.


Boy clenched both his hands under the table. He only hoped that his father would defend him this time, even though he knew what he expected would be impossible.


"Let him go to prison for life, don't let him out if necessary, and I'll assume he's gone" said the father, who has been silent since.


Not yet exhausted the pain that Boy felt from the words of the aunt, now he must return to feel the pain that is very deep when hearing the words of the father.


"Dad! ...."


"We're gone, don't ever expect us to come see you" his father said, leaving Boy alone in the room with his aunt.


Now the room is quiet. There was no sound anymore, but the sound of a stuffed sobbing from a fragile man.


"You guys are really evil!" she watered with tears that began to flow down her cheeks. It was the first time Boy had cried because of his family, his heart was completely unable to endure all the pain and loneliness he had been craving all this time.


***


Khaira walks around looking for someone she strongly believes can help her this time. However, from the living room, to the kitchen, he did not find the person, but found a halal couple who were dating. Zafran and Ainun are in the living room, and Akmal and Aisyah are in the kitchen while cooking.


Now the last place to search is the backyard. Sure enough, the person he had been looking for had been there. However, just like the previous halal couple, that person is not alone either. Yes, Billy is now seen having a warm conversation with his wife.


It felt so uncomfortable having to disturb their togetherness, but Khaira really had no choice but to talk and ask for help to the om.


"Eemm, excuse me, Om and Auntie, I'm sorry to interrupt your courtship time" Khaira said, making Billy's and Aira's attentions go straight to her.


"Ish, what the hell is this boy, what a date, we are talking about you again, you know," said Aira then pulled Khaira's hand to sit next to him.


"Talking about Khaira?" Khaira pointed at herself and the two adults nodded.


"Regarding you and Boy, as well as the events of that night," explains Billy.
