The Destiny of the Mute Girl
Episode 31 ~ Four Eyes

...🍁🍁🍁...

"German..."

The shriek of the voice, inviting a sweet smile on the pretty face that looked chaotic, creating wide strides, running towards the screeches, scattering into his arms, not expecting that the papi was also here. Her tears broke, the warm embrace she had longed for since realizing a mistake after taking a step and leaving the house, making her regret.

"Where have you been, son? Papi is almost frustrated because he is looking for you. We're all freaking out, honey." said Dhana.

Wulan further immersed his face into the arms of the papi, calming down who already felt guilty for making the papi worried and frustrated. Seeing the scene, Sadha's heart cheered and was grateful that her niece had returned.

"Pa..."

The baritone voice of the Wulan preacher also spread Sadha's daydream, recognizing the voice made him look sharp and look at him with a full gaze of inquiry. While the one being stared at only smiled clumsyly, trying to eliminate awkward when dealing with the papa.

"Come in! You have an explanatory debt to Papa!"

With a flat gaze, without looking at the son, Sadha walked in, followed by Shahil, and Dhana and Wulan who broke her embrace. Meanwhile, Vanny, Aiziel and Syahal who were still asleep sitting on the living room sofa were shocked, seeing the arrival of Shahil and Wulan together.

"Silts..."

Aiziel and Syahal moved, approaching the little girl who was smiling towards them. Hugging the body of the little girl, channeling warmth and affection. In turn, Aiziel and Syahal could not wait to immediately embrace the tiny body of the sister who almost dried up after being flushed by heavy rain.

"Oh my God, honey. Bulik is really not calm hearing you run away from home. Be worried about you, son."

Wulan's heart warmed when the bulik cupped his face that was chaotic with love, even the bulik was very different from the mami who had never once cupped his face like this. It was very soothing for Sadha, Dhana, Aiziel and Syahal. But not with Syahil who was just silent, standing awkwardly near the sofa looking at the scene.

"Sit down!!! You must explain something that you should have explained without Papa asking for it, Shahil!!!

Still with a flat look, Sadha who was sitting on the sofa, ready to listen to the explanation of the son. While Vanny who understood with awkwardness on the face of the twin sons, chose silence, letting the husband who handled all this firmly as his father.

Shahil nodded, obeyed the words of the father and sat down beside Syahal, Aiziel and Wulan. Silence, the atmosphere that should be blue after Wulan's return, now became quiet and awkward. Confused to start the real story.

"Yahil... Why are you silent? Come, tell! How did you get home with Wulan on Al's bike?" satha asked with a probing look.

"Shahil and Mas Al saw Wulan on the lonely road after the crossroads leading to the apartment, Pa. Syahil and Mas Al intend to buy food that is not far from the lonely road. But when we wanted to go home to the apartment, Syahil saw Wulan who was being chased by two thugs. The two thugs wanted to harass Wulan then Syahil and Mas Al helped him. Then take her to the apartment. Mas Al did not want Wulan to be there for long, so I had to send Wulan here."

Silent, but all of them threw unexpected glances at the fate of Wulan for several hours outside. Wulan smiled faintly at the Shahil who had been looking at her with sorrow since, whether pity or what, only the Shahil knew.

"But you're okay, aren't you, baby?" tanya Dhana who still embraces the princess's shoulder and rubs it occasionally.

"Wulan's fine, Uncle. The thug has not had time to harass Wulan." replied Syahil who was downcast, awkward to see the netra the uncle.

"Okay how? Don't you see fresh blood on his knees?" timpal Shahal who stared hard at Shahil.

Shahil gasped, raised his bowed head, stared fixedly at Wulan's true knee, covered in blood.

'It's okay, Mom. The wound on Adek's knee was only a small wound from falling while running away from the two perverted thugs'

With sign language, Wulan tried to explain to Syahal and all, hoping that they would not blame Shahil or Aifa'al for this. Those who understood the language seemed to sigh in relief, although the small wound had to be treated anyway. But Shahil did not. The twin men of Syahal looked fixated, staring at everything full of question marks.

"Your sister said, we don't all have to worry because the wound was just a small wound from falling when she tried to escape the thugs." said Vanny who understood with the look of Shahil's face.

Shahil was stunned, herding her eyes towards the smiling brother towards her. Astonished, confused and insensitive to the situation of the sister who was far from being okay, made him speechless.

Wulan. He did not even complain of the slightest pain while running. Wulan ignored the wound, but Wulan was worried about my wound. Shahil murmured in the heart.

All eyes were fixed on Shahil, astonished at her strange and drastically changed attitude, unlike the Shahil that was last noon. While Shahil was busy monologuing, understanding how he felt at this time. Is it possible that Shahil has been destroyed?

"Shahil.." said Sadha as she reached out to the son's knee, causing him to flinch.

"Shahil's going upstairs for a second, Pa. Syahil wanted to take something in the room and then go back to Mas Al's apartment." replied Shahil who gasped, making him nervous.

Sadha and Vanny looked at each other, astonished to see the different behavior of the son. So did Dhana, Aiziel and Wulan. But not with its twin.

"The devil to the top first yes, Pa, Ma." said Syahal who moved to step.

"What do you want, honey? Don't tell me you want to." said Vanny surprised, seeing Syahal's sudden action.

"No, Ma. Mama take it easy. Syahal only wants to talk to Shahil with four eyes." cut Syahal while smiling, reassuring the worried mother.

Syahal moved, taking a thousand steps to the top floor to meet the twin who looked different after driving Wulan home. Then...

"Yes Mas... Go, Honey!" dhana replied, then invited the princess to rest.

Wulan nodded obediently, followed the papi to the guest room prepared by Vanny.

"You're not sleeping, Ziel?" asked Sadha who led her eyes towards Aiziel.

"Ziel sleeps here, Paklik. After all, Ziel's drowsiness was gone when he saw Adek Wulan coming home safely." said Aiziel while laying his body on the sofa.

"Eittssss, you can't sleep here son! Let's go into that room! In this house there are still many empty rooms to use. Bulik does not want to get angry by your mommy, when she knows her son is left to sleep on the living room sofa!!!" it was Vanny who woke up her sister-in-law's son.

The sound of small ruckus came out from the mouth of Sadha and Aiziel when she saw Vanny's attitude, chatty and firm, but soothing.

"Ready Bulik!!!" aiziel said with respect.

***

"Jail..."

The voice of the twin baritone mas successfully stopped the activities of the Shahil who was busy struggling with college books, to some clothes. Put all those things in a big bag.

"What's up, Mom? Shahil is lazy to make a fuss with Mas Syahal!!!" shahil said he was reluctant to turn to Syahal and continue his activities.

Syahal let out a long sigh, moving in closer to the sister who was reluctant to stare, even to look at her.

"You're wrong, Shahil! Mas came here to say thank you because you and Mas Al were willing to help Adek when he was in danger." said Syahal who sat on the edge of the bed.

"It has become the duty of the Shahil, Mas. Help a brother who needs help. No need to overdo it!!!" answer the shahil with coldness.

Syahal smiled faintly, noticing the gurgle of the younger brother who was indeed very different this time. Precisely after Wulan returned, came with Shahil without her guessing.

"Yes, you're right! It has become our duty as brothers, or more precisely as brothers for Adek. However, if the person you found on the lonely road was not Adek, would you do the same thing like this?" syahal looked at his sister.

"Depends!!! According to the situation and conditions! If the situation and conditions are dangerous, maybe the Shahil prefers to go rather than having to get involved with other people's problems. But if otherwise, Shahil dare to consider it." replied Syahil who was still busy packing his clothes and college books.

Both corners of aunt Syahal lifted up, forming a knotty smile when she heard the words of the twin sister. Meanwhile, Shahil was still busying herself.

"If the situation and conditions are dangerous, but Adek who is there, are you still considering it? Are you sure you want to leave Adek when he is in danger? Then what have you done tonight? Even you forgot about the danger and kept helping Adek, Shahil!" Syahal.

Shahil was stunned, trying to digest the words of the twin who increasingly confirmed what he was feeling at this time. Even he forgot his own safety to help Wulan. That is, Shahil loves Wulan without her knowing. But a high ego breaks down the affection that has actually existed for a long time.

"What did Mas Syahal really want to say? The shahil doesn't want to argue!" said Shahil who turned his back on Syahal.

"Mas sure that you can accept Adek's presence. Actually you really love Adek like Mas, Mas Ziel and Damar. But all of that is ruined because of your ego, Shahil! Proof, here!!!" syahal said while raising the twin sister's hand.

Syahal stood right in front of his sister, stopping all his activities that had actually been completed since. But Shahil was determined, choosing to remain in his position with Aifa'al, that Wulan could only bring bad luck to him, making him ashamed of having a silent sister like Wulan. Shahil's eyes heated up, staring at the wound pus wrapped in bandages.

"You see this wound! You must have been hurt while helping Adek and Mas really knew you, Shahil! From childhood until now, you have never been able to treat your own wounds this wean! There is no way Mas Al can treat you!!! This must be Adek!!! Adek treats your wounds and ignores his own. Can't you feel how caring and caring Adek is like you, Shahil?" syahal who tried to resuscitate Shahil.

Shahil fluttered, trying to digest well the words of the twin mas, making his heart melt for a moment. While Syahal, staring at the sister, hoping that the sister will change after realizing his attitude to Wulan that can not be denied. The soul of the helper who suddenly stirred when he saw the sister in danger, making him act without thinking of danger, as long as the life of the brother survived. That is what Shahil and Aifa'al have done unknowingly.

"The devil goes first, Mas. Greetings to Papa and Mama. Sorry, if Shahil hasn't been able to go home for a while. Syahil will stay in Mas Al apartment." said Syahil who was reluctant to look at Syahal.

For a moment Syahil was pensive, but a moment later he moved, taking wide steps out of his room without looking and answering Syahal's words. While Syahal sighed heavily, staring at the back of the sister who never admitted her concern for Wulan.

"Hopefully you can reflect, Shahil!!! So that you realize your concern for Adek and you love him!!!"
