Ray managed to put his sister to sleep. The little boy fell asleep probably about 20 minutes ago. Slowly, he got up from his place. Trying to make his movements as smooth as possible so that his sister does not wake up.
Ren looks tired. Evidently with his face that looks dull and dark circles under his eyes. He was a five-year-old boy. His clothes were exposed, featuring his stomach filled with bruises and bluish in color. Ray bit his lip. Then take down the brother's shirt and cover him to the chest.
"So Aunt Sasha ..."
...๐น๐ ๐น...
Arnold bit his nails. Seeing her young child get so many injuries frightened her. No, not afraid of the culprit. Perhaps if the culprit had been caught, he would have finished it off until the person disappeared. Or even more sadistic.
Karen took her breath. Seeing a brother who is very weak when his children are bullied.
"Calm down. Ren is fine. He'll be cured soon. Just needโ"
"Do you know?"
"What?"
"Do you know who did that to Ren?" arnold's look was demanding. It made Karen uncomfortable at all.
"Stop looking at me like that!"
"Just tell me the truth!"
"That's her mother!" Arnold fell silent. "What does Brother mean? Sasha's in jail!"
"Are you stupid or what, Arnold?! Sasha was out of jail a month ago!" Karen completely silenced Arnold's mouth with her sentence. "Two weeks ago, he went to the office. Said he wanted to see his son. But I know he's someone who's not sane. So I didn't say anything about your whereabouts and your children. But who would have thought that he was looking for your information alone."
"So that woman ..."
"That's just my speculation, the crime rate in this city is very low. People always believe in karma. So it's just not possible that those who are minimal to commit crimes could apply that way to a 5-year-old." Arnold swallowed his saliva. "If it wasn't for Sasha having a mental disorder" Karen continued.
"The woman ..."
...๐น๐ ๐น...
A few days have passed, the bruises on Ren's body have faded. But different from his psychic. Every night, the boy couldn't sleep well. Every midnight, she wakes up calling her brother's name. Not eating unless Ray's next to him. In essence, Ren was already dependent on his brother.
For days the teenager did not come home from the hospital. He left the school which he thought was his number.
"Today, you're going home okay. Brother saw Ren was improving. You rest at home is okay, let Brother keep it here." Qian raises Ren's blanket. The boy was still asleep after crying this morning after being forced to eat by Ray.
"How will Ren be?"
"It's okay, you'll come home with Dad. Dad also has work to take care of later at the office" said Arnold who was behind Qian. "Let's let me get Rion to come here with the others."
Ray just nodded in understanding. He began to tidy up his stuff that was strewn over the sofa. "If Ray wants to play with Rion, can't he?"
Qian and Arnold looked at each other. They both frowned. "Well? Tumben really want to play with Rion?"
"To be sure, he made sure Ray played yesterday. But not yet stamped."
"Byeah, as long as five o'clock has arrived home. There is no objection!" Ray smiled happily. Then he paid respect to his father. "Ayay Captain!"
...๐น๐ ๐น...
Time shows at 13:32. Rion was just confused, why his brother this one suddenly asked to be invited to the edge of the lake to see the scenery. He himself had only been to this place a few times. When he jogs in the morning, it's only a few minutes. Then he'll come back home.
"It's amazing how you, suddenly get here. What's the matter? So important that you stay in the hospital alone!"
Platc ...
Rion snorted in annoyance. He rubbed his head and was just slapped by the teenager beside him. "I don't have to make it hard the same time! Yes, I left my own brother in the hospital! Anyway yes, there is Bang Qian. The others said they wanted to go there!"
"I was surprised!"
"Gue don't shower for 3 days if you don't know!" Rion got a little out of Ray.
"The smell of fishy fish is rich!"
"Lo want to make a noise like me?"
"Eh uh, relax Bro. I was just kidding!"
Then they both chuckle to themselves. See how the blue lake looks calm. "Where's it in?" The question just came out of Ray's mouth. Unlike Rion who has now put on his cold face.
"Why? Want to kill yourself?! Of course, this lake is deep enough for you who are short and can not swim! Want nyemplung? I can get stuck now if you want!"
"Cockfighting! I don't want to die!"
"Yes, that's a weird question!"
Ray took his breath. He threw himself on the ground. Just below the tree that is now covering the sunlight falls right into the retina. So did Rion who was now sitting beside him. Look at the same lake. The two fell silent, repeating the times they had together. It's just that, all of a sudden it's like an old tape spinning around in the head.
"Rion ... if it is the same .. I do not haveโ"
"You mean?"
"Ahahaha, no. Just suppositions. If I were to die, would you be depressed again?"
"Sure" Ray stared at Rion at a glance.
"Why?"
"Why do you ask? You don't die if I get depressed, let alone you it's really happening!"
"So .. am I really influential in your life?"
"Hmm" Rion just cleared his throat. He was still staring at the vast expanse of water before him. "It's not just me, Bang Qian, Bang Erik, Om Arnold, all our brothers, even Grandma. You're influential in all of their lives."
"Ah, you can. I'm salting!" Ray responded with a harshness.
"Because it's important to all of us, so don't die!" sentak Rion's. But it made Ray laugh. "Nothing's funny btw ..."
"Oh yeah, you pack that necklace I bought yesterday?" Rion nodded his head. Then pulled the necklace pendulum inside his clothes. A silver crescent moon.
"Don't be told?"
"Hmm, I tried."
"Yesterday, I forgot to buy one for Ren ..."
"No more, he said yesterday only 7."
"Continue?"
"Later if I go to a faraway place, you give me a necklace for Ren, huh?" Rion snorted in annoyance.
"No! I won't give you!"
"CK, what a hell of a bitch!"
"Let's go nowhere!"
"Who knows, whose name is destiny, no one can read!"
...๐น๐ ๐น...
Qian stared at the small figure lying on the bed. Ren wakes up and searches for Ray. He thought the boy would cry like before, but he didn't. He just put on a pouting face and then went back to lying down.
"His body still hurts?"
The little boy nodded. "No."
"Ren wants to eat? Or want a drink?"
"No, Bang. Ren doesn't want to."
"How about box milk? Bang Qian bought a taro flavor. Wanna?" Ren looked at Qian with a sparkle. "Really?" Qian nodded. Then took out one medium-sized box of taro-flavored milk that the little boy wanted from long ago.
Ten grabbed the milk and immediately drank the contents. "Thank you Bang Qian! Bang Qian is the best!" the boy was happy. Qian chuckled. Seeing Ten's smile back up, he became relieved. Really, seeing it filled with bruises made Qian's heart cut open.
The two talked lightly. Qian occasionally threw jokes to make the child laugh loosely on the bed. To the extent that, they did not realize that there was someone who entered without permission.
Kreeet ...
Qian turned his head, but it was too late. The woman had already floated the seat she had in her hand towards Qian. Until the young man slammed into the reply closet near the bed.
"Dragon!" the little boy exclaimed when he realized his uncle was in pain.
Not enough there, Sasha again hit Qian's body with a chair in her hand. Many times to cause a noise that is quite disturbing.
"MAMA! NO! MAMA DON'T!" Ren involuntarily pulled out the infusion needle in his hand. Get out of bed and hug the mother's feet. "DON'T MA! DON'T HIT BANG QIAN!!" yelled the boy. But obviously that did not make Sasha stop the action.
"Acc ..." Qian whimpering. Head's dizzy. Bumped different made of iron. His head feels spinning, blood has also flowed from the corner of his lips and temples. The young man tried to maintain his consciousness. But it failed because his eyes were so heavy. Until dark pick him up.
"Nrt ..." Ren held onto Qian's legs which were now sprawled on the floor. But the young man did not move with his eyes closed. "Bang ... no! Don't sleep! Don't stay in Ren! Ren is afraid of Mama! Bang out! BANGS!"
Vain.
Sasha threw down the chair she used to hit Qian. Staring at his son who was hugging Qian's leg. Crying with fear. "Now ... it's your turn, yes, Renand." Ren shook his head, about to run away but first Sasha held onto his body. Then without further ado strangled Ren's neck until the boy was lifted.
"Ma .." said the boy. Trying to remove the hand link on his neck. "Ma .. This ... Ren ... Mama's son ..."
"Yes, you're Mama's son. So, now you have to obey Mama huh? Mama wants you gone, so Mama doesn't feel pain anymore. Okay?"
Ren coughing. He began to have trouble breathing.
BRAKK ...
"Generic ... Uhuk..." Ten held onto her sore neck and her tight chest. He looked at his mother. There, Ren could see her brother holding her hand.
"TANTE IS SANE?! THAT'S AUNTIE BOY! HE COULD DIE!"
"YES! THAT'S WHAT I WANT! I WANT THIS CHILD DEAD!"
Ray realized, this woman has a very strong energy. Even his strength alone could be overwhelmed to hold Sasha's rebellious body. Until Sasha's body was freed from Ray's shackles, he immediately grabbed a nearby chair. Turn the chair toward Ray. Then the woman brutally beat him with the same thing. Going on a few times. The teenager screamed in pain. Back to make the sister scared.
"You ... I must also disappear!"
"No ... Aunt ... sober!"
BRAKK ... BRAKK ... BRAKK...
The last blow, right, hit Ray's head that immediately made him bleed. Her hair was wet with that thick liquid. But he still had his consciousness.
Ray manages to make Sasha's movements stop. He threw away the chair in Sasha's hand. "Stop! Aunt Sasha!" Sasha fell silent. Letting his breath hunt. Ray's screams made him realize. What is he doing right now?
"Tante .. hiks ... Auntie don't do this ..." Sasha fell silent. Seeing Qian's predicament was already unconscious. Also, Ren's crying became more when he found out his brother was also injured.
"SASHA! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" That stern voice, Sasha knew him. Arnold, he got there with Karen behind him. No less surprised by the situation. "DAMNIT!"
"Dad ..." Arnold immediately caught Ray's limp body. Her hair was wet with blood. His eyes dimmed while Sasha, Karen dragged him away from there. Making the whole hospital in an uproar.
"You hold ... I'll call the doctor ..."
"No. .. I want you to call Mother ..." Arnold shook his head.
"No! You can't come with your mother! You must accompany Father!'
"Dad still has Ren, the others ... The others also love Dad ..." Arnold shed his tears.
"Dad .. don't push yourself anymore. Dad ... Don't be hard on yourself. Please ... if later, Ray can't open his eyes again .. Please take care of everything, will you?"
Arnold returned.
"Rigger ... Brother don't go! Ren doesn't want to be alone! Brother's promise .. hiks ... Brother, don't!" the boy shouted as he hugged his brother's arm lying on his father's lap. The teenager turned his head, "Ren .. should not be crybaby .. you are a boy, men should be strong ... remember, do not be recalcitrant if you say Bang Qian is the same Bang Erik yes ..." Arnold and Rem cried.
"Mother has arrived ... Ray wants to go with Mother first, huh?"
"No! Brother! No!! BROTHER!"
...๐น๐ ๐น...
Rion stopped his steps. He had just returned from the lake, after being abandoned by Ray who suddenly stopped a taxi and said he wanted to see his sister.
"I don't feel good, what's wrong?" Rion looked at the twilight that still looked reddish. He did not know that at that time, he had lost his best friend. Losing a precious friend.
He was still in his place. Until dusk sank, he still did not move from four. Along with the many phone calls he ignored. Her memory goes back to this afternoon, "So ..where did you go, Rayyan?"
