Silka again stood upright in the middle of the dim room in the corner of the shopping center that she came to at this time. He looked at the person who had pushed him just now. Apparently, that person was Beriel, one of the members of the Adel gangster, during college who used to bury him arbitrarily.
"Maybe you think I'm still as weak as I used to be, Beriel," Silka said in a calm voice but her face this time did not cross a hint of fear.
"But, there's something you need to know, I'm not the one I used to be. This time, I won't let you rule my life again." Silka's head turned around looking for another figure.
Silka smiled cynically. "Tumben you're alone. Have all your gang members dumped you?" silka folded her hands on her chest.
Beriel looked at Silka with a look of disdain. He did not believe that Silka could do anything against him. "You think you're a queen? If you are a hero, try our opponent with your own hands! Not because of the gangster hand you asked for it," Beriel said, challenging Silka.
"What do you mean?" Silka did not understand what Beriel said.
Beriel seemed to be laughing cynically. "You're pretending to forget? After Adel disappeared, you never showed up again. A few days later, we got word that Adel was in critical condition at the hospital."
"There is information that says, Adel was tortured4 by men kej4m after locking you in the campus toilet. We are waiting for an explanation from you. But you never showed up again. After all these years, I've only seen you again, with the power struggle in your hands" Beriel said at length.
Silka seemed confused by what she had just gotten. Because, what he remembered after being watered and locked up by Adel and other members, was his last day sitting as a student. That day, she went home and fled from her husband to another country.
"You don't make it up! So, what's Adel's situation now?" ask Silka.
"You want to know how he's doing?" Without waiting any longer, Beriel stepped forward with full confidence. He launches an attack on Silka, intent on destroying Silka's bones, avenging Adel.
However, Silka deftly repelled Beriel's attack and nimbly dropped him to the floor. Silka used the judo techniques she had learned with great precision and speed. All his abilities, not just lost even though he never practiced again after having twins.
Beriel was very surprised by Silka's ability. His body began to drip after being toppled by Silka. She tried to get up, but Silka quickly locked her arms tightly, making her fall again in pain.
"This time it's my turn to show who is weak" Silka said in a firm but contented tone.
Beriel tried to struggle, but his strength was not comparable to Silka's skill in judo martial arts. Silka continued to apply the techniques she mastered, keeping Beriel from being able to move anymore.
In the midst of that situation, Silka saw an opportunity to teach Beriel a lesson. Finally, he stopped and looked at Beriel sharply.
"Why do you accuse me of what happened to Adel?"
"Can you just answer my question? Why are you accusing me of being so vague?" ask Silka back.
"Because of the news, your name is always called by them! Who else was this stupid girl named Silka at our college? There's only one Silkanah Aquela on our campus!"
Deghs
Silka gasped at the unexpected news. He hated Adel and his whole flock. However, there is no way a Silka who only knows learning and learning can do something bad to others.
He tried to recall what happened. And, in his head appeared a name. "Max? Is this him?" muttered.
"Whoever it is, the important thing is that I have to avenge Adel who died silly because of you!" Beriel ran quickly to lift his feet to Silka's face.
However, Silka's body was still quite agile in avoiding this opponent. Beriel's body continued to run crashing into the shelf of super market goods behind Silka.
"It's not just about fighting you, or Adel. It seems, my departure at that time left a lot of things I didn't know. However, it seems like they managed to stop the cycle of violence that Adel gave me. Even though I got my freedom, but it was not my wish. In fact, I myself do not know at all what happened to him," Silka said in a relaxed tone.
Beriel, who was in pain and feeling humiliated, looked at Silka in confusion. He begins to realize that Silka is not an ordinary person like the members of Adel.
"You don't keep dodging, Silka!" denounce Adel but the voice gets weaker.
"That's it! Why do you apply that Adel was a victim? Here, the victim is me! I am the one whom you always belittle, demean, despise, and hurt! If he's dead, then go to hell! Don't take me because I don't know that at all!"
Silka took out the wallet from the bag that was still neatly attached to her shoulder. "I don't have much time to fight with you anymore. My kids will be home from school soon."
Silka threw a handful of money right into Beriel's face. The money scattered and floated in the air leaving a sense of humiliation on Beriel. "That you can use for your treatment and at the same time the money for Adel. If you're gonna die, you don't have to look for me! Because I have absolutely no sympathy for you and the rest of Adel's flock!"
Silka stepped foot leaving Beriel who felt extremely humiliated. "Awas you're a cowboy!"
Silka walked quickly out of the shopping mall. His lips were smiling satisfied to see Beriel's look earlier. A moment later, she thought back to her husband.
"Max, did you really love me long ago?"
