Rayyan
Chapter 24. The Passage of a Dearest Person (II)



Rion started to blink as the light from outside hit his face. He still wants to sleep, maybe another hour can make his drowsiness disappear. He lifted his blanket, trying to block the sunlight.


"Rion, it's seven!! Do you have any intention of making breakfast?!" Rion just cleared his throat. He's really still sleepy.


"In the kitchen there is instant noodles... Do it yourself!"  Said. Ray just clucked slowly. Rion when he sleeps can never be challenged. He would wake up only if there was Nia yelling at him, or the deafening sound of Karel singing.


"Oh, I'm not responsible if you wake up later the kitchen has been left ash!" He said as it passed. Rion just cleared his throat. There's no way he's just burning the kitchen, is there?! Just as Ray passed from Rion's place, there was the sound of objects falling from the kitchen. Instantly, Rion opened his eyes. Climb out of place, and go running towards the kitchen. Afraid that kid will actually set this apartment on fire.


"Lo what the hell?!" Shouted Rion when he found a lot of instant noodles scattered on the floor. Ray snorted in annoyance. Don't blame him, the instant noodles are too high for him to reach. Then he pulled whatever he was holding, hoping he could pick it up without any commotion ensuing. But, in fact, not. Now he was even treated to Rion's endless nagging.


"Don't mistake me, I told you. I don't have the talent to perform in the kitchen." He said while picking up instant noodles scattered on the floor. This time, inevitably Rion must obey Ray's request. He could not cook, the only thing he could serve was instant noodles.


"Gue just want to reconnect with me, is it difficult the door lock is just as careful?! You will not fall poor. It does not make you paralyzed for life. But the thing is, you never looked at me! What the hell am I doing?!" Ocehnya in teenagers who are now sitting in front of the dining table. Ray was just listening.


"Gue is a fool, semalem..." Ray stopped the sentence. He just remembered the consequences that must be paid when someone knows about the incident last night.


"What?! Semalem lo why?!" Rion now turned to Ray who was frozen in place.


"No, yesterday I slipped in the bathroom. Wet all clothes equal my hair!"


"What, how do you feel?! Until it gets wet from the head end, do you plop in the bathtub?!!"


"If I said yes, you would laugh!"


"Gue won't laugh, let alone sleep without the hair cooling! I'll get it again if you get sick later! Try dong, lo it's big! I'm the big brother here, not the big brother!"


"As far as I am, dong!" Rion only sighed violently. Ray is still the same person. With his head hard. Rion only wished that he could live with the boy even longer. Moments later, Rion thrusts a bowl of instant noodles in front of Ray.


"Thank you" Rion just cleared his throat. Then start eating his food.


"Rion..." Rion stopped all movement. Started to look at the boy who was now silent while staring at the bowl on the table.


"Gue's sick. Because they..."


"What?!" Rion's voice made him realize. If he really can't say it. If he can feel pain, without anyone getting hurt, Ray is ready to do anything.


"No, just call me!" He said with a smile as wide as he could. But, Rion is not a stupid kid. He knew the boy was hiding something from him.


...  ***...


There is no day that Rion likes except Sunday. There are many reasons why he loved the day more than anyone else. One of them is the time when he can sleep. Without Nia or Ray's Nagging bothering the ears.


And today, he can do whatever he wants. The repetition is also over. So, he can freely skip school on the grounds of empty lesson hours. It's simple maybe, but it makes the day a little more peaceful. He didn't want to be as ambitious as Kensie, or as laid back as Shan. He could be a more serious person than Kensie, and there were also times when he became more relaxed than Shan.


A few minutes ago, Sam's friend he used to tell me about came with a warm smile on the corner of his lips. Rean doesn't really know what it's like to go to a friend's house. He himself was so foreign to the environment he was going to visit. But, because of his longing with the figure of Ray that makes his mood better, nothing. Just for once. Maybe the next time, he will rarely meet with Ray. Or even he never had another chance.


But unfortunately, when Rean came, Ray was not in the apartment together with Rion who was relaxing on his bed.


"Just wait until the boy gets home, he said just for a moment. Anyway, it's the same if you go out with Sean's brother for just a minute. Sometimes..." Said Rion while leaning back leisurely.


But, Rean was not happy if he waited for Ray in an unfamiliar place like this. Luxury room with elegant colors rarely swept by his view. Only bright colors and also a room full of children's toys that he often sees when at home.


Therefore he preferred to go, and wait in the garden. The meeting place of Ray and Rean before.


Rion?!


Don't ask about the teenager. This time, he prefers to go back to enjoying his sleep.


...***...


Ray snorted in annoyance as he looked at Sean who was choosing the uniform before him.


"Sister, a little sneak why the hell?!"


"Duh, Ray broke. What if I choose wrong?!"


"Why the hell is Sean's uniform torn everything?!!" Ray began to snort in annoyance as he folded his two hands.


"Today I bumped into people on the street, uh my rock was so I fell into a ditch! As a result, it was a shirt on the front!"


"Why not get stitched?!"


"Ray, we have money. If you can buy a new one, why not?!" Sean looked at Ray who was still upset with him.


"Please, I'll give you a reward later! Lo want what?! I'll buy it!"


"Really?!" Ray glanced at Sean. His sister just nodded.


"This is one why?! From now on, I kept huffing, dong! Lo why?! After fighting with Rion?!" Ray shakes. He realized, since he woke up this morning there was something wrong with his body. Which made the boy suddenly become agitated.


"Sister, pick up the clothes, huh?! I want to go home!"


"Loh, he said he wanted chocolate. Not be?!" Ray shakes. And Sean knows that there's something wrong with that kid. There was an almost invisible red line under his chin.


"This why?!" Sean asked while staring at the red scratches. While Ray who looks nervous just cover it with his hands.


"Yesterday got the same claws as his own nails!" Sean smiled bitterly. His sister is good at lying. Don't forget that they grew up together for a few years. Sean remembers Ray's habits. Including his habit of cutting nails in a week.


"Now you can lie to me." Ray can only be silent, avoiding Sean's gaze is his way of running away from the next question.


"Lo know what?! If the lie comes from another lie, what do you hide from me?!"


"Son's brother what the hell?! Ray's people don't hide anything!"


"Lo can lie to Rion, Shan's brother or the others. But inget, you can't lie to me!" Sean's voice is colder than ever. There's no wearing that comes from Sean.


"Lo is the same as Rion?!" Ray looked at Sean.


"Rion is nothing."


"So..."


"Gue didn't lie! Yesterday's got nails..."


"Whose nails?!" Ray was silent. He really did not dare to look at Sean's face right now. Sean would be even scarier if he was angry.


But all Ray heard was a heavy sigh. Then continue his activities, choosing the uniform he will buy. Without saying anything more to him. Congratulations, Sean is really mad at him. Sean passed from Ray's presence while carrying a pair of uniforms. Handing over the items he will buy in front of the cashier. Ray just followed from behind.


"Lo if you have a problem talking! I exist, your brothers are many too! Same Rion or Sam can too, I wonder the same lo! How can a rich man live with a micule of burden alone?! Realize, you're not alone!" Sean kept it that way. Until he did not know that his sentence really had a big effect on the child standing next to him.


"Yes. Lo really, sis! I can't say much about my life! You must know, right?! My mom doesn't exist, my dad doesn't want me, and my grandpa, who always supported me, left last week!" Now Sean realized that his sentence hurt the figure beside him so much. But it was too late to realize.


"That's not what I mean..."


"Gue know, I mean Sean. You mean, I'm a troubled kid, right?! I know, I don't need to say that I know either." Ray smiled blandly. While Sean's bead was unceasingly staring at Ray's shady eyes.


"Do you know how far I want to get out of trouble?! And yet not one problem, another problem has come! It's good for my life?!" Ray smiled back.


"Ray, that's not it..."


"Try me rich you guys, can freely say anything. Can be free to choose which path." Rayenghela.


"Just try me rich artists that I often see on television, I will try something for the outlet. Or even, I could've killed myself..."


"RAYYAN!!" Ray smiled back. But there was a pain that he had just shown Sean.


"But relax, I'm not doing it because I still love you guys!" Ray stepped slowly, away from Sean who just wanted to pay for his groceries. Her steps felt empty. Because he was re-elected on the hard stuff. Make them safe, or lose their trust.


...***...


One is now in a car with a dark black feel. Observing the streets, and also the people who cross each other. He stared fixedly at a teenager who came across the many people.


"Mrs, I found the boy!" Said the man in a black suit to someone on the phone.


"Entermitate him!" Said a woman from there. And the man just nodded. After the connection was cut off, he stepped on the gas pedal. The speed of the car increased. And the only target his boss has decided on, a teenager who crosses far behind people. He's a little left behind. The boy did not realize that anyone wanted to do evil to him.


BRUISES...


His body was hit, then rolled around on the hot asphalt. There was nothing that could be done when the black car just left at high speed. While many people watched, then shouted loudly. His body was in pain, even in some places it was painful that he could not even explain with a voice.


The blood pooled, making his body wet. His eyes felt heavy, there was still something he wanted to tell someone. A brother who used to always accompany her. But it seems, now he does not have a chance.


...***...


Rion woke up from his sleep. It was not because of Ray's voice that suddenly shouted. Not because her mother came unexpectedly. But because of the sound of ambulance sirens roaring across the road there. From the window, he could see how the ambulance path split the city streets. He just had a feeling that he wasn't wearing about it.


So now he decided to get out of the house. Making sure that the people who are huddling across the street are just an ordinary crowd.


But what he saw there were people starting to gossip. About a teenager who gets hit by a car violently, ending up in a terrible state. But Rion started to stand with trembling hands.


He stared at the streets that had been lined with police lines. He could see there was blood on it. And also, the white sheet that was already stained by the blood red.


The same sheet as Rean's, the one the boy had brought.
