Lies
A Sacrifice

Farraz came in by breaking down the door of Raya's house. He had no choice but to do so. Because from the gap he peeped in, Farraz saw something terrible. The hands of Raya were covered in blood. Not only that, beside the girl also looked very messy. Plates and other furniture floated everywhere. There is no place that is not filled with stuff. Fortunately, there were no glass objects in the house. Maybe this is the reason why Raya always buys her home furniture using plastic, iron or wood so that when her father rampages or fights with his father, the father, no single object is damaged so it saves the cost of spending on such trivial needs.

As soon as Farraz forcibly opened the door, he found Raya sitting in the corner of the kitchen with her hands clutching a knife. The blood came from alone. From the sharp weapons that the girl often used to prepare lunch and dinner. Ben Farraz wondered, where did that deep red liquid come from? Was the girl hurt? That's what Raya thinks. He was afraid of his girlfriend who was injured because she was wearing it. Soon the young man approached the Kingdom.

“Raya, why are you bleeding? Are you hurt?” ask Farraz in panic. His eyes roamed around the Kingdom's body, looking for if anything was scratched from there. The condition of Raya's body is so sad. Indeed there is no trace of scratches from sharp objects, but blue marks shrouded the hands and feet of Raya. Most surprisingly, this time Raya's face was also affected. The face that had never been touched ended up bleeding. More precisely in one corner of the left lip Kingdom equipped with her swollen cheeks. It is certain that Raya was slapped very hard there. It was so hard that his lips broke.

Farraz growling. No need to ask who it is. The only person who could beat Raya was her own father. This has gone too far. This persecution can no longer be justified. Tonight Farraz will take Raya out of this hellhouse no matter what. But what exactly is going on here? Farraz was still wondering where the blood that flooded Raya's hand came from.

“What happened Raya? Why are you sober?” ask Farraz again. The young man then got an answer as Raya raised her trembling hand towards the other corner of the kitchen. While pointing at that, the cry of Kingdom broke out. However, the girl hid her stuff. Only tears came pouring out from both eyes. Raya was used to crying without a sound. The girl would only cry bitterly while outside the house. It was only in his mother's vortex and also in front of Farraz. The rest, as much as possible Raya will not cry. Or even if he cried, his voice would not be heard so as not to provoke a commotion around him.

What was surprising to Farraz was not just the sight of Raya's cry, but rather what the girl had pointed to. There was someone on the floor. Farraz could not see clearly because the lighting there was minimal. Understandably, Raya only uses oil lamps to illuminate her home. Electricity was never there because Raya could not afford to pay her bills for the month. As a result, only two oil lamps were used. One in the living room and one in the kitchen. If Raya wants to wear it to study, then she will use the lights in the brighter living room in her room.

Farraz couldn't see it clearly, but he knew something was wrong with Raya's father. That is why he closed the door that he had broken before approaching the father Kingdom by using an oil lamp in the kitchen. In any case, Farraz had a bad feeling about this. He didn't want what was going on inside this house until it was heard outside. As much as possible Farraz will solve it in his own way although the way is not necessarily true.

Almost the lamp in Farraz's hand fell when he saw what was happening. Both balls widened and his mouth opened suddenly. Right, the person sitting in the corner of the house was the father of Raya. The problem was, the man not only sat down, but also bled. There was a clear cut on the bottom of his ribs, the place where the human heart was located. And that's where the blood flows. Unexplained Farraz can catch what happened there. This must have been done by Raya. The woman was holding a dangerous object covered in blood on her hand. While Raya's father was sitting with a clear stab scar. That is, Ray was the one who carried out the attack.

Unable to think clearly, Farraz managed to catch his breath. He panics in situations like this. A situation he had never experienced before. What exactly is going on? Why is it like this? What's he supposed to do? Those questions popped up in Farraz's panicked head.

As Farraz tried to find a way out, Raya began to speak. With a soft-sounding crying voice, the girl spoke, “How is this? Is he dead? Killed him! I must have killed him!” he said while sobbing.

The young man crouched down, he placed his lamp beside his body. Slowly Farraz pointed his hand at the neck and hand of his father. He was looking for the heart rates of both places. Despite trying it many times, Farraz did not find any signs of the man's life. Raya's father is dead. Farraz can confirm it because he has studied biology very well in school. In addition to mathematics, Farraz has also participated in the biology Olympics. So, he couldn't possibly misidentify a person's death from his heart rate. Farraz added to his certainty by examining the man's breath. And the young man could not feel the air coming in and out of the mouth and nose of his beloved father.

Farraz quickly picked up his lamp and approached Raya. This can't be allowed. Whatever had happened, he would not have been able to allow the girl he loved to endure everything. Looking at his battered body, this must be an unintentional act. Even if intentionally, surely because Raya wants to defend herself. For too long he endured the pain of his father's persecution. Maybe his patience is over tonight. That was what made him finally take reckless action by injuring his father. Yes, surely Raya's initial goal was just to want to hurt the man. Raya definitely did not plan to kill the man.

For this reason Farraz must act quickly to get Raya out of this situation. He must immediately remove Raya so that the girl is not involved. The young man took the clean clothes of Raya and told the girl to put the sharp object in her hand on the floor and clean herself. In the instruction, Farraz said words that influenced Raya. “You didn't do it, Raya. You don't know this man. He's your father, but you don't know what happened. You understand?”

Raya had stopped fighting back then, but she looked dazed. Perhaps this was the effect of his shock so great that he felt confused. He did not even understand what was happening and only listened to the words spoken by Farraz. No matter what the man said, he just nodded and said one word, “Iya.”

After making sure Raya had cleaned herself up so that there was no trace of any blood stuck to her body, Farraz took Raya to his orphanage after locking the Raya house tightly. There he told what happened to one of the caretakers who was Farraz's representative. The manager is also a friend of his mother. Farraz did not tell the story thoroughly and instead twisted the facts by saying that he had injured Raya's father when the girl was beaten. Farraz did that because he could not bear to see Raya being persecuted by her own father.

The young man then asked the manager for help to bring Raya away from this village to the place of Aunty Raya. Farraz also prepared money for them. The money he had collected included the money stored by Raya in the park beside the orphanage. Farraz could tell the place because he had once accidentally seen Raya keep her money there. Since it's an urgent situation, so there's no harm in taking out the Raya's savings to save the girl herself.

After begging the manager, the middle-aged woman finally wanted to help Farraz. He brought Raya out of the village using a motorcycle in the orphanage. Then take her to the bus terminal. Actually he wanted to accompany Raya until the girl arrived at the aunt's house. However, he could not just leave Farraz. The young man was still too small to bear everything by himself. He will help her find a way out.

However, the distance to the bus terminal is very far from where they live, it takes at least more than two hours to return to the orphanage. And after delivering Raya and returning to the orphanage, the woman was surprised to see the state of the village that was already filled with police. Even the orphanage where he lived had been visited by many law enforcement officials. They're investigating things related to Farraz. The young man's room did not escape inspection. A massive search was carried out until the sun rose high, finally Farraz, 16-year-old young man was taken to a police car with both hands cuffed.
