Sacred No Longer Sacred
Chapter 9 (In prison)
Saints are currently at the Police Station. Even though Suci continued to avoid harming Rian, but three witnesses paid by Mama Linda, making Suci unable to evade the accusations shown to her.
After the Witnesses finished giving their testimony, the Holy One was put into the cell, and finally the Holy One could only surrender to the destiny of life that he had to live.
Mother said that if God would not give a test beyond the limits of His people's ability, and I am sure that behind all this misfortune there would be a hidden wisdom, the Holy Mind.
"Heh New boy, what crime have you committed?" ask a senior prisoner named Rita.
"I have done nothing wrong" answered the Saint.
"If you didn't commit a crime, why did you get into prison?" ask Rita again.
"I've been slandered."
"It is your holy grail, now you should penditin my shoulder, here you must obey all my commands, because otherwise, I will not hesitate to hurt you, like the woman in the corner. He can't talk anymore because I always beat him up" said Rita proudly.
"Mother should be ashamed that Mother has oppressed the weak" Suci said by approaching a woman who is currently aloof in the corner, and Suci ignored the cries of Rita's men.
"Boss, he has dared to fight the Boss, we should teach the new boy a lesson as well" said Ina, one of Rita's men, said, but Rita was only silent because actually Rita was embarrassed by the words of the Saints, especially Saints were so gentle in speaking.
Why me? why do I feel ashamed when I hear the words of the new Son, the inner Rita.
................
Suci tried to approach the woman who was currently in the corner, then slowly Suci held the woman's shoulder.
"Mom, what's his name?" holy Tanya, but the Sacred Woman asked seemed to tremble in fear.
"Mbak don't be afraid. My name is Holy, and I will not hurt Ma'am" said Suci.
"Sa_i'm Hesti," hesti said in a stammering voice.
"Sir Hesti, from now on, Ma'am Hesti can think of me as a brother" said Suci, and Hesti who heard the words
Saints immediately cried out in shock, then Hesti hugged the Sacred body.
"Thank you very much Saints, you are the first friend I have," said Nesti.
Suci asks Hesti about the cause of his imprisonment, and Hesti tells him that he was forced to steal because at that time Hesti needed a fee for his father's operation.
"I'm sorry I stole, because in the end I still can't save my father's life," said Hesti who again cried because he regretted his actions in the past.
"Hest, now regret is no longer useful, the important thing is that you have to fix everything so that you do not make mistakes in the future. We should pray Ashar now," invite the Saints.
"But I've forgotten how to pray" said Histi bowed in embarrassment.
"You don't have to be ashamed, I'll help you, and we'll learn together."
Rita and her men continued to see Suci and Hesti who were about to pray, until finally Suci decided to invite Rita and his four men as well.
"I have many sins, surely God will not accept my repentance," said Rita.
"Mother is wrong, for the Lord will always accept the repentance of his servant."
"My sins are too much Saints, I am a murderer" Rita said in a bowed shame.
"Whatever sins you commit in the past, be sure that God will forgive the sins you have committed, provided you really want to repent, and try not to make mistakes again in the future," said Suci by embracing Rita's shoulder.
"Is it really like that?" rita asked with a fixed gaze on the face of the Holy to seek the truth through the eyes of the Holy, because Rita was afraid that Suci would lie to her.
"Of course, God is always waiting for His people to repent, so God is still giving age to us. As long as God gives us the opportunity, we should use it as best we can, because we do not know when the end will come" said Suci with confidence.
Rita and the others are very grateful to the Saints, because the Saints have reminded them, until finally all who are in one cell with the Saints join the congregation with Saints and Hesti.
Prisoners are so grateful that the presence of the Holy has made other prisoners change for the better, when usually if there are new prisoners, the prison will be crowded, because the old prisoners will oppress the new prisoners.
"The new prisoner named Suci seems like a good person, not one hour he is in prison, he can already take Rita to the path of truth, he said, whereas all this time Rita has been famous as a culprit in all this Prison," said one of the Police Women in charge of guarding the prisoners.
"Yes, what a pity for his fate, it seems he was slandered, but there were three Witnesses who incriminated him. Hopefully the truth will be revealed soon" said one of the other prison guards.
................
Arya and her three friends are on their way to Rian and Alina's wedding, and as Arya passes through the pine forest where she snatches the Holy Sanctity, she is, arya's body shook violently as the incident re-shadowed in her memory.
"Yes, you're okay, right?" ask Farel who is currently driving a car.
"You remember this pine forest, right?" arya asked her three friends.
"Of course we still remember, this pine forest was a silent witness loe do_" Erwin's speech stopped because Irwan who was beside Erwin immediately closed his mouth.
"Loe if you say the same Arya was careful, do not come from my feet. Loe see for yourself, now Arya looks sad," Irwan whispered to Erwin.
"Gue has become a depraved man because he is under the influence of alcohol, surely now Holy life has been destroyed because of my actions. Is it possible that the Saints would forgive the mistake I made for him?" Aryan muttered.
"Yes, you better forget the girl named Suci, it was all just an accident" Farel said.
"Yes Rel, you're right, it was all just an accident, but it was an accident that we had on purpose, and it was all because of the loe that had affected me," said Arya who was ignited by emotion.
"Yes, Rel, stop arguing no more, we're friends, and I don't want our friendship to be ruined because of this problem" said Irwan who tried to mediate the debate between his two friends.
"All of you don't know how I feel, every day, every night, I'm always haunted by the evil that we've done, I'm always haunted by guilt. Hopefully later I can meet with Suci so that I can make up for all the mistakes I have done," said Arya by ruffling her hair violently, and the three friends of Arya finally just silence without issuing a single word, because they do not want Arya back offended by their opinions.
