LOVE BLOWS FROM REUNION
Episode 171: LOOKING FOR A LOVER

    Yudi brought the HP Bagas into his room. He's gonna move the tape to his computer. Before transferring the data, Yudi observed the room. Because he was sure, if Yuna must change clothes first before being taken away by people who come from Japan. So Yudi tried to find, the possibility of a message left by his wife.

    Some time Yudi examined the room, all still intact. Nothing has changed, nothing is lost. Then Yudi went to his desk. Yuna's bag on the other side of the table is still there. His position has not changed either. Likewise, a small bag, a kind of wallet rather large and made of typical Malioboro leather, also still remains in place.

    Next Yudi observed Yuna's large suitcase beside the wardrobe. The suitcase is intact. Not changed position. Then, Yudi opened the wardrobe. There is an empty hanger still hanging in the closet. It means Yuna is already wearing her clothes. This is the clothes his wife wears. Yes, the work blazer shirt, which he brought time came from Japan. Was Yuna told to go back to work in Japan? Question mark in Yudi's mind.

    Yudi sat at the desk. Like its main purpose, it will move the recording data in HP Bagas. Then he turned on the study lamp to light up his desk. Next Yudi pulled the corner of his desk, took Yuna's wallet back. Yudi opened the wallet. It's still intact. Some money sheets in the form of Yen and Rupiah, still exist. Only passports that do not exist. Yuna is only allowed to take her passport. This is because of the identity of the trip.

    Yudi. Mind floated. What is this really about. Confused, not knowing what happened to his wife.

    "Here you go, Mas ...?!" bagas voice asked Yudi.

    Yudi shocked. It dawned on him that he had been daydreaming for a while. Of course imagine the concern with the state of his wife.

    "Eh, yes .... A moment ..." said Yudi from inside his room.

    I opened the laptop. Search for data cables. Then connect the recording files in the HP Bagas, moved to the laptop. Not only stored in laptops, but Yudi also stores in drives and in flashdiscs. Of course, to anticipate that the recording data is not lost.

    After saving the data, Yudi re-opened the recording through his laptop. He wanted to convince the people who brought Yuna. Yudi carefully observed the recording. A few moments were stopped, to confirm his sight. But it was very strange for two men to force his wife to leave. Not known at all. Even from her clothes, Yudi also did not know what uniform was worn.

    Likewise with the language used when talking to Yuna. Although the language used was Japanese, but because it was done during a quarrel, the conversation was too fast. It is very difficult for Yudi to understand. Although there are some that are understandable.

    "It's over, Mas ...?!" Bagas asked again.

    "It ...! Here, his HP ..." said Yudi.

    Bagas retrieves the HP that has been transferred by Yudi.

    "Old to, Mas ...?" ask Bagas.

    "Yes, I keep it in a few places. If something is deleted, you still have another file. Let's keep. The problem is proof, Gas ..." explained Yudi, which is actually just an excuse.

    "Walah, Mas Yudi is indeed smart ..." said Bagas.

    "Tomorrow to come with me to Jakarta, yes ..." said Yudi invited Bagas.

    "What's up, Mom? If invited to meet Rini's mother, I do not want." said Bagas who anticipated with Yudi's invitation.

    "Kok even called Rini's mother .... Take me to the embassy. Want to ask the fate of Yuna." explained Yudi.

    "Oi .... I guess .... Yes, Mas .... Ready. What time are you leaving?" ask Bagas.

    "We're taking the night train. Until Jakarta morning, go straight to the embassy. Sorenya go home, take the night train back to Jogja. Until Jogja morning." explained Yudi.

    "I'll bring anything, Mum?" tanya Bagas who is certainly confused will be invited to enter the embassy.

    "It is important to bring a KTP. Change of clothes, wear a nice batik shirt. We're at the Japanese embassy. Wear shoes, not flip-flops. At least we respect ourselves." Yudi explained to Bagas.

    "Ready, Mas Yudi ..." replied Bagas.

*******

    The M.H Road. Thrin, Jakarta. At eight in the morning, Yudi and Bagas visited the Consular Building of the Japanese Embassy in Jakarta, for the Yogyakarta service area. Long enough Yudi communicated with security officers at the front gate. Must complete the arrival procedure at the Embassy.

    After the security officers convey the purpose of the arrival of Yudi, to the administration and protocol. Yudi was finally approved to enter at around nine. Only Yudi himself was allowed to enter. Bagas cannot enter. Doesn't matter. The important thing is that Yudi can meet with the Consular. While waiting for Yudi, Bagas can only sit in the waiting room near the security section.

    Without hesitation, Yudi immediately entered the Consular room, escorted by the protocol officer. After opening the door, Yudi bowed, as a sign of respect. There was a man sitting on a chair behind a large work desk. An adult male from Japan, who wears a full suit, and looks neat. Hair with pomade combed to the side, typical of Japanese official style.

    The official who was sitting, now standing, also bowed his body, a sign of respecting his guests. Certainly not Japanese, because wearing batik typical of Indonesia.

    "Ohayogozaimasu's chat. O suwari kudasai." said the official, allowing Yudi to sit down.

    "Sumimasen, Watashinonamaeha judidesu, Jogujakaruta kara" Yudi said.

    "Oow .., from Yogyakarta. Fits the batik cloth. Don't worry, I speak Indonesian. I have been in Jakarta for five years. I have also been to Yogyakarta several times, an interesting city" replied the consular official.

    "Sorry, Mr .... I am originally from Yogyakarta, my wife is from Kyoto, Japan. Her name is Yuna." said Yudi opening the conversation.

    "What ...?! So you're this great guy named Yudi ...?!" the consular official stood up and immediately greeted Yudi while patting Yudi on the shoulder.

    Yudi was certainly surprised, what happened to him. Why so know the name of Yudi, the official seemed immediately surprised and respected him.

    "Mr Yudi .., you're a great man. Thank you for helping to fix the Japanese Cave in Yogyakarta. Thank you for planting the cherry blossoms. You are an extraordinary person, Mr. Yudi. Are you planning to stay in Japan?" ask the consular officer.

    "Thank you, Mr .... Don't flatter us too high, it will hurt if I fall. I'm just an ordinary person, sir." said the embarrassed Yudi flattered.

    "Ah, Mr. Yudi is too low. Can I help you?" ask the consular.

    "Sorry, Mr .... Today I came to the embassy, because there was a problem with Yuna, my wife" Yudi said slowly.

    "Problem ...? What problems?" ask the consular office.

    "Today there was a guest from Japan. My wife is wanted. They met Yuna. But Yuna was taken away by force. Is that the knowledge of the embassy? Who're they? And now, where is Yuna?" ask Yudi.

    "Sorry, Mr. Yudi. We don't know. There were no reports of officials coming to Indonesia. And of course we can't be sure where Mr Yudi's wife is. Does Mr Yudi know the characteristics of the guest who came to bring Madame Yuna?" ask the consular office.

    "Sir, I brought a recording of the conversation. Yuna is forced to return to Japan. We were newlyweds, and the honeymoon was not over. Can you help me?" yudi said that immediately issued a flashdisc, and thrust it to the consular.

    "Can I open it?" ask the consular officer.

    "Please" said Yudi who wanted to know immediately, who they really were.

    Then, the Consular Officer put flasdisc in the computer. Then open the video file that Yudi gave. Yudi looked at the video again. The Consular Officer observed carefully. Not only did he listen to the words being debated, but the official also observed the clothes worn by the people who picked Yuna up. The official had been watching the video for quite some time. Even repeating certain parts several times.

    "There's another tape? Maybe the beginning or the end?" ask the office.

    "Nothing, Sir. This is the only proof of the recording." replied Yudi.

    "Surely they didn't come through embassy protocol" said the official, who had been observing the footage.

    "Is this a secret?" ask Yudi.

    "I dare not convey to Mr. Yudi. It's a state affair. I don't know the exact place in Japan, where now Mr Yudi's wife was taken. But there is something important" the official said.

    "Is this some sort of abduction?" ask Yudi.

    "No. Don't say it like that. I just want to say to Mr. Yudi, that Mr.'s wife, that's an important person protected by the state. He's an asset of our nation." the official explained.

    "Then, what about our wedding?" ask Yudi again.

    "Go to Japan as soon as possible. Meet your wife's parents or family. Hopefully Mr. Yudi can still meet your wife" the consular official said.

    "Depart to Japan? Soon enough? So I can still meet?" muttered Yudi who was certainly very worried.
