The Man in the Dream
17.Explain it!

This is where Shenaa is now, Beni's private workspace. Sendu a glance of the woman, staring fixed face slightly wrinkled. There's no one else but Shenaa, Alan and Beni.

Shenaa is setting her heart so that she is able to accept all the explanations from Beni that she herself is not sure of her truth. The woman took a deep breath to loosen something tight inside her chest there. "Explain!" pinta Shenaa.

Likewise with Beni, the man took a deep breath to explain the events of several years ago. "That night, at one in the morning mama Alan will give birth. I took my wife to the hospital, and as the car was speeding, I kept asking my driver to hurry because my wife's amniotic fluid had broken. Sharp bend, that's when my car and the car to your two parents collided. It's an accident, I'm not the killer you think I am. My wife is dying, so are your parents." Beni breathed back while recalling the events of that night. "Your parents died on the spot. My wife was unconscious. My driver died and I only had injuries. I thought that night Iu only had your parents there was you in that car too. After being in the hospital, the police are confused to find your family or relatives because you are not from this city. This is the heaviest burden and also a lifetime of regret for me. The child in my wife's birth died to make her mentally disturbed until now. I admit that the accident that night was my fault."

"Why am I in an orphanage? why did you put me there?" shenaa asked with tears.

"It takes two weeks to find out who your family is or who your brother is. They live in the city of K. Me and some of the police officers met with your family and reported about the accident but they refused to take care of you. They don't even think of you as family and I don't know what the reason is. It was at that time that I and the police brought you back to this town, and we agreed to send you to the orphanage" Beni explained at length. What kind of harsh reality is this? does Shenaa still have a brother? I don't know!

"Not that I don't want to babysit you, but I'm a man. I have to take care of Alan and Mama who's mentally disturbed. I can't take responsibility, every month I always send stuff and pocket money as well as money for your school fees until you go to college."

"cost? which cost do you mean?" shenaa asked not understanding. "I grew up on the streets, for school to college I worked part-time. The parlour doesn't cost me a penny." Shenaa muttered as she wiped her tears.

Beni frowned deeply, "Don't joke you! I stopped sending to the parlors when I found out you didn't live there when you were in junior high school."

"Mr Beni. From Junior High to college I lived on the streets working and taking care of myself." Shenaa said once again.

"Means the parlor has committed fraud" continued Alan.

"I have all the proof of his transfer." jeloroh Beni

"Forget that. I just want to know about my brother. About the death of my parents, I was sincere. Maybe it's his destiny." said Shenaa steadfastly.

"I've already sent people to investigate all your family lines. I don't know why I feel like something's awkward when they're rejecting you outright." Shenaa took a deep breath, not about the death of her parents that made her sick but her self-existence that was rejected. "Looks like you're not from just any family. Sorry for not finding out more about your family. I have my reasons too." Beni then wrote a name and an address on a piece of paper. "This is the name of your parents and the address I went to first" Beni said and handed the paper over. "I'm sorry for making you an orphan. Sorry for putting you in trouble like this. I'm really sorry for what happened that night" Beni said with a lowered face.

No tears come out, no anger is free. His parents will not wake up. Besides praying Shenaa can what? His task now only wants to find the truth told by Beni.

"Don't resign from the company. I'm not going to forbid you from ever being friends with Alan again" the man said.

Shenaa simply replied with a smile. "I will solve my problem first" said Shenaa. "I'm not some kind of vengeful human being. Living on the streets made me understand how she felt to hold back patience and accept reality."

"Know Shenaa, since your departure from the home I've been trying to find you" Beni said back.

"Forget it. Sorry if my words yesterday offended Mr. Beni. I have indeed confessed the death of my parents. If this is the case I already know why I live without family." Shenaa said trying to put out a smile in her wound.

"Speak Shenaa." Alan asked.

"What do you want me to say?" shenaa with a straight forward view.

"anything. I don't like to see you quiet like that."

"Take me home, Alan. I have to go to the city of K." said Shenaa.

"But it's so far away! you want to go alone?" ask Alan to worry.

"Who should I go with?" ask Shenaa.

"I'll keep you company." jolly Alan.

"no need. You're a busy man!" reject Shenaa.

"Why would I pay Dava dearly if he couldn't finish my job."

"Let your fiancee be angry and jealous!"

"I don't care. I never wanted that engagement." Alan said of stupidity. "At least if the marriage happens, it will only benefit the family."

"Don't confide in Alan. I don't want to hear it." said Shenaa then closed her eyes.

Alan laughed crisply, in his lyrics the woman's face from the side. "Remember, don't resign" Alan said.

"I don't care." said Shenaa with her eyes closed.

"Stay be the Shenaa I know. I don't like the Shenaa right now."

"And that I don't care" Shenaa muttered.

After her contract, Shenaa immediately packed some of her clothes. After that he returned to Alan's car and accompanied the man to take his clothes as well. That afternoon they immediately left for the city of K with a fairly long distance. If using an inter-city bus can take ten to eleven hours of travel. But with Alan's sports car, it may only take about eight to nine hours.
