The Nick's Life
Dissapeared

The Flashback

Rahman exits the room as soon as Iza says ask to marry Nick. The man took his cell phone and contacted his sister. After waiting for a while, his call was finally answered.

“Assalamu’alaikum.”

“Waalaikumsalam. At.. Iza is at my place.”

“Really? Thank God he ran away from home. Did he come alone or with a man?”

“He came alone. And now Nick is here.”

“I'll pick him up..”.

“Di.. listen to me first.”

Rahman immediately cut off his sister's speech. The man then says that he will marry Iza and Nick. Rahardi initially rejected the idea. How could the elder brother marry them off when he desperately separated.

“I don't agree. I am his father, their marriage will not be valid without my blessing.”

“I know. That's why I told you this. Their blessing, what's Nick's lack? He is a good and responsible man, he also understands religious science, let alone lack?”

“Do you know how his family is? Her mother is a mistress!”

“Then... but now it is not. Iza and Nick have told me everything. Why are you so stubborn? Don't you want to see your daughter happy? You should be grateful Iza came to me and asked me to marry them off. They could have done something else, something forbidden by religion. Stop being so stubborn, their blessing. If I do not marry them, it is not impossible that Iza will find someone else to marry them or can be desperate. If they commit sins, then you are responsible for their sins. Restui them, do not let you regret later.”

There was no response from Rahardi. The man seemed to be considering what his brother said. Rahman was still faithfully waiting for his sister's answer. He needed to do this in order for his nephew's wedding to be legal.

“Good kang. I let me marry Iza to Nick. But please don't tell me I gave you permission. I still want to see how seriously Nick takes my blessing and shows himself worthy to be my son-in-law.”

Afraid of the child's determination, Rahardi also gave his blessing. For now he was forced to budge, but he would continue to look for loopholes to make them separate. For him, Nick still not a good figure as the priest of the child.

Flashback Off

“Exploit!! Really outrageous of you, mas!!”

“Mina.. i.”.

“What??!! What else do you want to say?! You gave kang Rahman permission to marry Iza, you knew Nick was your son-in-law but you were trying to separate him. You even betrothed Iza to Shehan when your son was married with your permission!!”

Mina was endlessly holding her head. It was as if he had just been hit by a large rock. His disappointment and anger now began to turn to hate. The woman's cry began to break. Winny approached then hugged his sister-in-law.

“Abi already know about my wedding?”

All eyes immediately turned their eyes towards the stairs. Rahardi was surprised to see Iza was listening to what happened earlier. Meta immediately held Iza's hand, as soon as the woman moved down the rest of the stairs. Ridho stood up then extended his hand towards Iza.

“Abi knows I'm married but Abi is still trying to separate me from Nick. Even Abi betrothed me to Shehan. Why bi? Wh why? Am I not abi's biological child until abi hates me so much?”

“Ngga Zi.. abi love you, son.”

“Honey? If Abi loved me, Abi would support me. If Abi loves me, Abi will not separate my son from his father. If Abi loves me, Abi won't take me away from Nick. Even Abi called my son an illegitimate child even though he knew my relationship with Nick was a halal relationship. Why bi? WHY?!”?

“Zi. forgive abi. Abi is guilty, abi khilaf.”

“Khilaf? So easy abi said khilaf when everything had happened. I lost my son, I lost my godliness and I lost my husband. All because of abi!! Now Abi has managed to separate me from Nick, FOREVER. IS ABI SATISFIED??!! COMPLACENCY??!!”

“Sabar Zi.” Ridho approached Iza then rubbed his sister's back.

“Why should I live? Why don't I just follow my son and husband!!” the crying began to break.

“Zi.. don't say like that son,” exclaims Mina.

“Zi. forgive abi.”

“I HATE YOU!! HATING YOUUU!!! AAARRRGGGHHH!!!”

Iza shouted hysterically letting out all her anger. Once again, the father played him. His chest felt tight, the bitter reality continued to hit him in a row. Suddenly Iza could not support his body again and fell drooping. With a swift Ridho caught his sister's body. Due to the shock, Iza was unconscious again. Rahardi immediately ran towards Iza as soon as he saw the princess faint.

“DO NOT TOUCH MY SISTER!!”

Rahardi gasped at Ridho's screams. Her heart melted seeing her son staring hatefully at her.

“Don't ever approach my sister again! From now on Iza is my responsibility! Stay away from her!”

Ridho lifted Iza's body and carried her to the room. Rina and Meta hurriedly followed from behind. Rahardi dropped himself on the floor, his cries instantly breaking. His wife and children hate him.

“I can't live with you anymore. Let's get divorced!”

Mina walked past Rahardi who was still sitting on the floor. No matter the sedu sedan husband. His heart had hardened and would not melt again just because of the sobs of the man. He continued walking towards his son's room upstairs.

Rahman and the others were only able to fall silent to see the ark of his sister's household being destroyed instantly. The family that was once harmonious we have broken like a ship that was hit by a big wave and soon the ship will sink to the bottom.

🍂🍂🍂

Diah enters Nick's room. He had just delivered both his parents and his sister back to Bandung. They have been living in Jakarta for four days. In addition to visiting Nick, they also come to marry Diah to Bryan. The wedding took place at the KUA office in the area where Diah lived.

The marriage was done without Nick's knowledge. They agree to cover up their dark story and start a new chapter with Nick. If Nick's memory doesn't come back forever, then let the man assume that his life is just like any other child of a normal family.

He sat himself on the sofa. His eyes fell on Nick's room. There his son was chatting with his four best friends. Nick's condition is better now. After consulting with a psychiatrist, the man rarely complained of pain in his head. Diah really hopes Nick's condition will recover as soon as possible.

Diah's eyes were then fixed on the wedding ring that encircled her ring finger. A smile was printed on his face. Undeniably his heart felt happy, after going through a winding and steep road, he was finally able to get back together with Bryan. The man who loved her so much, Nick.

Sleepily, Diah laid her body on the sofa. Some days he always sleeps late at night because it is too cool to chat with his family. It didn't take long for the woman to fall asleep.

“Ok Nick.we test again. You already want our name-us,” exclaimed Fahrul.

“Fahrul,” points to Denis.

“Abe,” points at Arnav.

“Denis,” points to Abe.

“Arnav,” points at Fahrul.

“Salah Nick. I'm Fahrul, this is Abe, that's Denis well who's kind of Shah Rukh Khan's Arnav.”

“Ok.. Fahrul, Abe, Denis, Arnav.”

Nick repeats the names of his best friends in the order Fahrul said before but points to the wrong person. Fahrul looked annoyed at Nick, he only realized that from now on it was only bullied by the man. Nick laughed at the face of Fahrul who had put on the face of war.

“Lo tuh ya.. let again amnesia tetep aja ngeselin,” kelutus Fahrul.

“Lo her aja who want to be negotiated ama she hahaha,” continued Denis.

“Sorry.. sorry abis face lo tense, already rich people kebelet,” Nick chuckles.

Fahrul shook his head. He climbed into the bed and lay there. The size of the bed is large enough to allow the man to lie there. Abe picked up a pillow and then hit it towards Fahrul but the man was unmoved.

“Gue mutual friends from when?”

“Then I and Denis from Junior High. But if it's the same sort of two, right after college. Equally rich Typhoon,” bright Arnav.

“Lo both oplosan products yes.”

“Buset calculated gasoline times, oplosan,” chirped Denis.

“Hooh. they are both oplosan products,” timpal Fahrul.

“Arnav derivative sir Takur sure.”

“Gue derivative Pakistan yes not India.”

“Sama is different thin. What is clear is that a lot of its fur is a rich body of ape.”

“Hahahaha..”

Fahrul and Abe couldn't help but laugh at Nick's words. Unlike Denis and Arnav, they look pensive. Nick had said that before when they were still in High School. It seemed like he was unconsciously repeating what he had done.

“If lo.. must be a Korean derivative..” points to Denis.

“Tul..” by Denis.

“North,” Nick continues his speech that was truncated Denis earlier.

“Lo think I'm descendant of Kim Jong Un what,” sewot Denis.

Nick chuckled back. He was enjoying this moment so much. Talking with four people who claimed to be his best friend made his mood improve. For a moment he forgot his sadness at still not being able to remember himself.

“You're already in marriage?”

“Pacar?”

Denis just shook his head, Abe shrugged his shoulders while Arnav just kept quiet. The relationship with Meta seemed to stop in the middle of the road. He still couldn't meet the girl after the lies he had committed.

“So I'm also single rich you guys?”

Though hesitant, but all three nodded their heads. Nick scratched his head for a moment. He thought he already had a lover or wife because sometimes he got the brightness of a woman's memory or like hearing a woman's voice calling his name.

“Serious I'm single? How can? Though I'm handsome gini.”

“Narsis,” ketus Abe.

“Pede crazy,” ruk Denis.

“Songong,” chirps Arnav.

“Friday,” connect Fahrul.

Nick again laughed at the reaction of his friends. Their conversation continues. Nick continues to extract information from the four men. I wish there was a word they could remind him of something. But nothing, none of them remembered. Only the situation he was in right now felt familiar to him.

🍂🍂🍂

After Maghrib, Fahrul and Abe said goodbye to having to meet with Mr. Dewa talking about the dealer's payment process which must be delayed by several days. So does Arnav who must review the promo activities held by his office. Denis followed suit, he wanted to see Ayura and Azka.

Bryan just came in after a day of taking care of Nick's coffee shop diversion. Diah asked him to do that. The woman doesn't want Nick to come into contact with or relate to things that would remind her of Iza. She really wanted to start a new world for Nick. A world without Iza in it.

The man then approached Nick who was lying down watching television. He pulled the chair to the side of the bed and then sat himself there. Several times Nick changed television channels, looking for channels that caught his attention. Nick's hand stops the remote when he sees a news story about a car accident. Bryan quickly picked up the remote and turned off the television.

“Dad.”

“Someone wants daddy to talk about.”

“What's the problem?”

“After discharge from hospital, what do you want to do?”

“Did I not work before?”

“You work as an MPR manager at Ambrossia Hills. But a week before the accident, you resigned. You said you wanted to open your own business.”

“Usaha what?”

“Daddy don't know because you haven't said it.”

“Let me think again, dad.”

“Hmm.. let's get ready. Soon isa, we pray jamaah.”

Nick nodded his head then walked towards the bathroom. The situation with Bryan and Diah feels foreign to him, unlike when with his friends. Although foreign, but Nick still

feeling happy.

Just finished ablution, sound adhan from Bryan's phone. Nick immediately came out of his room and approached his mommy and daddy who had been ready first. Shortly thereafter, they began praying.

🍂🍂🍂

Nick wakes up when he feels his throat dry. He grabbed the glass on the nightstand then gulped the contents down. The man laid his body back, but could not close his eyes again. To fill the boredom, he turned on the television.

Just like before, Nick keeps changing channels. His finger kept pressing the remote button, looking for interesting programs. His hand movements came to a halt when he saw a program that aired news of a car accident. The show he had seen but was turned off by Bryan.

Nick was seriously paying attention to the news being aired. The voice of the news reader alternates with the voice of the police officer as well as the witness of the accident. The picture also shows the condition of the car after the accident. Suddenly a shadow flashed in his head.

Nick closed his eyes. He tried to calm down, so that the shadow could give a hint for him. His efforts succeeded, several times the shadow of himself was in a vehicle flashed. He also saw a woman with him, yet his face was faint. It was just the sound that was ringing in his head.

“Abi chasing us.”

“Be careful mas.”

Memory stopped. Nick tried to remember it again. He must know who is the woman who often comes in and out of his memory. He took a deep breath and concentrated. A shadow appeared in his head. Not about an accident but the memory of a house. Nick continued to push himself to remember, because the house was so familiar.

Come on Nick a little more..

Nick continued to concentrate. Without caring for the advice of a psychiatrist he continues to force his brain to remember the things he wants to know. The greatness of the memories re-emerged, houses, schools, railroads, rows of tombs. Nick's eyes instantly opened as memories of the row of tombs appeared.

Land coachman. It's a cabman's burial ground. Whose house is that? I have to make sure.

Nick got off the bed, then changed his clothes. With a sneak, he walked out of the room. Denis was asleep on the couch. Tonight, it's the man's turn to accompany Nick at the hospital.

Nick slowly opened the door. His head looked towards the nurse's desk. It just so happens that no one is guarding there. It seems the nurse is checking the state of the patient in another room. While running small Nick towards the elevator then press the arrow keys down. How long the elevator doors were open. The man rushed into it.

Once pulled, Nick removed the patient's wristband on his wrist then threw it into the trash can as soon as the man got out of the elevator. Pulling a hoodie to cover his head, he walked out of the hospital.

The atmosphere of the streets looks lonely. Time is past midnight. Nick kept going, looking for ways to get to his destination. He didn't bring any money. While walking, his ears caught a song coming from one of the cigarette stalls he passed by. Instantly, the shadow of a woman flashed.

Ilove you..

I love you too..

It doesn't matter where we live as long as it continues with you..

Let's do it..

Random memories continue to mill around in Nick's head. The memory of Iza, Rahardi, ummi, Diah came in and out of his head. Only a shadow with voices kept buzzing in his head.

Nick's steps stopped when he felt such intense pain in his head. For a moment he rested himself while holding on to a pole. The pain did not decrease in the slightest, it just pierced his head. His moans were heard as the pain grew. His nose started to bleed.

With a staggering step Nick continued walking. The one on his mind at this moment found a place to lie down. While shrinking the blood that kept coming out of his nose, Nick continued on his way. Then his eyes caught a pick-up car parked a few feet in front of him.

Nick hastened his pace. Then with the remnants of his strength, the man climbed into the back of the car. A few sacks of vegetables and rice were also there, but still left a place for him to lie down. Unable to endure the pain any longer, Nick's body collapsed. The man was unconscious.

Two men approached the car. Without looking back, they got into the car. Not how long the four-wheeled vehicle rolled across the streets of the capital. Without them noticing, there was another passenger coming behind them.

🍂🍂🍂

Denis woke up when his phone alarm went off. He lazily turned off the alarm and closed his eyes again. Five minutes later, the alarm went off. This time Denis forced himself to get up. With his eyes squinting he looked at the digital clock that was on his phone. Half-time five over seven minutes.

Denis straightened his body. His hands stretched out to stretch his back muscles. After his life was gathered, the man got up from his seat and headed for Nick's room.

The man was silent for a moment when he did not find his best friend there. Then he stepped into the bathroom. The door of the bathroom closed and called his best friend's name.

GECK

GECK

GECK

“Nick.. Nick.”

GECK

GECK

GECK

With no answer from the inside, Denis opened the bathroom door. Apparently there was nobody inside. Denis's drowsiness disappeared instantly alternating with panic. Especially when his eyes saw the patient's clothes were lying on the floor. Opening the closet door, the arrangement of clothes was a little messy, like someone was taking it in a hurry.

Denis rushed out of the ward. His eyes swept across the floor corridor that still looked desolate. He went back to the room and took his cell phone. He quickly called Diah's number. Until the ringing ended, the woman did not answer her call. Denis called back and this time his call was answered.

“Assalamu’alaiakum.”

“Waalaikumsalam. Mom..”

“What's Den?”

“Nick.. Nick doesn't exist.”

“How is it?”

“Nick lost mom.”

“WHAT?!”

Nick stuck in the tub car, mom🏃🏃🏃
