NOT PERPETRATORS
Move Tomorrow

In Rudi's car.

"Rud, your car got dirty because of me."

"No problem, Imania. You just calm down. Can be washed too."

"Thank you .. for helping me, Rud."

"Together."

I don't know, how could Rudi suddenly appear. Would I rather just ask?

"Rudi, you suddenly showed up. What, where are you from?"

"It just so happened to be stopping by the coffee shop" Rudi replied with a smile.

"You didn't accidentally wait for me, did you?"

I bit my own lower lip. I shouldn't have asked like that. Oh, Imania, what a PD!

"I was waiting for you."

Rudi's answer surprised me. Why is he waiting for me?

"Actually, I also saved up at Dimas' father's bank. Then, suddenly the thought of waiting for you in the store."

"waiting me? What's for?"

Rudi paused for a moment, then replied, "To bring you home together."

***

When Rudi got home. I thank him too. And, Rudi immediately went home as well. Our bodies are already very fishy, due to the smell of eggs that sting. Taking a shower is the best solution.

I also went into the house. And immediately scouted with various questions by Fania. Thankfully, my mom and dad are gone. So, only Fania and Arka knew how I was coming home.

"It's my birthday." That's the excuse I used to keep Fania from being so fussy with me.

After the bath, I took Fania and Arka to dinner. At the dinner table, we talked to each other as usual while eating food.

"Actually, where are mom and dad? Not home yet, right?"

"Say it goes away," said Fania.

"Mama? When are we going out for another trip with papa?" ask Arka suddenly.

"Sometimes, yes, dear," I replied with a smile.

"Arka kangen with papa!"

"Yes, Honey. Tomorrow, if mama's off, we'll go for a walk."

Arka nodded in understanding. He also continued eating.

"Imania," call Fania.

"Hm ..." I replied as I chewed the food.

"I feel bad, when I'm constantly here."

I stopped eating. I put down the spoon and turned to look at Fania. "Why are you saying that?"

"I've lived here a long time. Free sleep, free shower, and free meal. I felt ... long ago bad for your mother and father, Imania."

"Fania .. Why do you think that? We're all glad you're here. Moreover, you've been like baby sitter Arka. You take good care of Arka. You love Arka sincerely. You've become Arka's playmate. And you did all that with sincerity. So ... we're so lucky you're here. Please .. don't say that."

"Imania, I'll keep going."

I was wide awake to hear it. "Fania, don't leave here. Please ...." I'm really sad to hear Fania's statement. Not wanting to continue the food that is still on the plate.

"I'm sorry, Imania. I'm still going."

"Where are you going to live, other than in this house."

"Not knowing."

"You didn't finish your meal?" ask Fania.

"I no longer have appetite."

After waiting for Arka to finish the food on her plate, we sat on the sofa while watching television. However, my thoughts drifted to Fania. I can't let Fania drift on the streets. Moreover, Fania already had no one. Except, her father knows who. And the sister of her mother, who also knows who.

Ting! Incoming messages from Dimas.

I don't want to think about how complicated my relationship with Dimas is. That's very confusing. I better let it go.

"Fania," call me.

"Hm .... "

"When are you going to get out of here?"

"Tomorrow."

"Give me the clearest and most honest reason. Why should I go?"

"Don't I tell you, I'm uncomfortable here?"

I thought for a moment before deciding to say this. Perhaps, this is the only way to keep Fania with me. "All right, start tomorrow." I took a deep breath. Bismilbornrahmanirrahim, hopefully this is the best decision. "From tomorrow, we move into my new house."

Fania immediately jumped up happy to hear the words from me. He stood on the sofa while shaking his hips to the right and to the left. "Horay! Moving tomorrow! Moving tomorrow! New house! New house!"

Fania looked so happy and excited. His behavior always made me shake my head.

"Tante Fania is noisy!" shouted Arka who was watching Ultraman film on television.

Fania furiously kissed Arka's cheek. Arka immediately shouted annoyed. As for me, it was good to see him happy.

"Pack our things now. Tomorrow, after work, I'll pick you up."

"Ready, Commander!"

Fania ran straight to the room. I smiled to myself to see his spirit. I don't know why, I thought, that this is just Fania's wits so I would move to a new house. Because it's been a lot, Fania wants to stay there with me.

An hour later, my mom and dad came home. I also expressed my intention to move to a new home. Or rather to occupy a new house. And they allow.

***

The day is getting late. I stared at the two suitcases that had already been filled with clothes. There are some boxes too, containing our stuff. Tomorrow, we'll occupy a new home. Hopefully, this is the right decision.

Fania and Arka are asleep. I took the phone from the nightstand. I saw a message from Dimas who was talking. There are a hundred more messages from him. He must be thinking about me right now. However, I have to be reckless. Must not be weak (says Readers Keceh haha).

Alright. This is part of my determination. I better not open the message from him. I put my phone on my pillow, near my head, after tuning my favorite song, 'Rivers Flow In You'. I immediately closed my eyes while listening to the sound of the heart-shaking piano melody. Let go of the problem for a moment, cooling the heart and mind.
