"Do you have any memories at this cafe?" nathan asked Sukma.
Sukma. "I used to come here a lot, after school. Meet friends, secretly."
"Silently?" nathan asked to make sure. Sukma nodded back.
"Go get you here because someone wants to see you. He who has been helping Papa with Brother reveals your case. He's always hiding his identity, for some reason. Is that maybe your friend, her?"
Sukma was silent for a moment. Then smile thinly. "Maybe. Turns out he still remembers, me, Bang. I'm happy!"
Nathan noticed Sukma's happy-looking face. Did Mr. Black was indeed an important person in Sukma's life all this time?
"You bus-" Just asked who Mr. Black on Sukma straight away, Nathan's phone instead reads.
Mr. Black
Where are you guys?
I've been waiting a long time. Don't break the promise!
Nathan clucked. Exhaling a rough breath, then bring Sukma down. "If it is true Mr. Black's your friend, please tell him, don't be a mysterious ass."
Sukma just laughed. The two then entered the cafe. When opening the door of the Cafe, Sukma stopped his steps suddenly. The girl exhaled softly, then pulled her lips into a smile. He feels Dejavu.
As if he was very used to it, Sukma immediately walked towards the cashier. The cashier looked at him confused, because he did not recognize Sukma who was smiling widely in front of him.
"Mrs. Black." The cashier watched Sukma carefully. A moment later, his eyes were round, his hands reflexively closed his mouth from being stunned.
"You-you"
"Freaky girl" replied Sukma casually. The smile still remained faithful on the lips of the girl. While Nathan was paying attention, immediately thought. What not Mr. Black was the code for Sukma and his friend when they met?
The cafe cashier moved from behind the table and approached Sukma. Staring at the girl from top to bottom with a stunned face. "Where are you going?"
"I'm not going anywhere. Just trying to heal myself."
The cashier guard girl then whispered towards Sukma. "You know, Mr. Black is sad. His family has a problem."
"Hidden trouble?"
"Yes. You should entertain him. Anyway, don't make him sad. Poor, handsome in droves sad." Sukma laughed at the cashier's words. They often say hello first, even if only potluck.
"Yes, you go straight up." The cashier said. He then grimaced as he unintentionally looked behind Sukma.
"Eh, sorry, Mas. I want to talk. What do you want to order?"
Sukma who saw the guilty look of the cashier immediately turned to Nathan. "He's my brother."
"Huh? Shucks! Your brother is so handsome!" compliment the spontaneous cashier.
"God! Don't be teased, yeah. I'll stay upstairs first."
Nathan intends to follow Sukma's steps, but Sukma immediately shakes his head. "Abang a message. I promise, it won't be long. I'll be fine, so you calm down."
Nathan shook his head, not agreeing with Sukma's words. "Cannot. Anyway, you should come along."
"Will Mr. Black wants to see Brother? Bang, I'm sure, he doesn't want you to know his identity yet. Aye, right?"
Nathan exhaled a rough breath. He was actually not afraid of the man hurting Sukma. Because they seem to know very well. Nathan just doesn't want Sukma to be alone with another man in a room far from his reach. This is the first time Nathan has released Sukma alone with the opposite sex. Nathan is not very sincere.
"But you'll be with him."
Sukma shook his head inexhaustibly. "Don't believe in Sukma?"
Nathan sighed harshly looking at Sukma's pleading face. Inevitably, the man finally allowed it as well. While the cashier who saw the interaction of Nathan and Sukma, even confusion.
"Are you really the weird girl's brother?" ask the girl. Staring at Nathan's goal, he suddenly remembered something. "Heh, you, right, that time. Who came here twice, Mr. Nye. Black."
Nathan grunts. The cashier turned out to be very chatty. Without lingering, Nathan mentioned his order and immediately moved on from there. Lazy to answer the question of the cashier. Besides, the mood is bad. He is restless, considering Sukma who is meeting an old friend.
Sukma knocked on the wooden door slowly. She's a little nervous. This is their first meeting in two years.
The door opens from the inside. The two people facing each other instantly froze. Stare at each other, while the mouth seems locked. Dive into each other's eyes, looking for the longing point hidden there. And yes, they both found it.
Three minutes the two just stared at each other in silence. The heart decub is clearly heard, whether it belongs to anyone among them.
Until the clanking of Sukma's cell phone resuscitated the two. "Eh, sorry. A-ayo, comein!" The man looks nervous. Sukma is the same. The smile that he had displayed when he first came, had even disappeared somewhere.
"L-yes!" Sukma nodded slowly. He took a look at the phone he was holding. turned on the screen, saw who sent him the message. It turns out that Nathan, who warned him to contact her if there was anything.
"Don't see you for a long time, strange girl!" The man said after a long time the two returned to silence. Now, they sit facing each other on the sofa in the room. There was a small table in front that limited the two.
"Not seen you for long, Mr. Black."
"Ah, I don't think I believe that in front of me this is you." Mr. Black looked at Sukma with a sharp, shady look.
"Why? Pangling, huh?"
Mr. Black nodded. "More than that. You finally showed up after two years no word. I feel like yelling at the world, saying that you're finally back."
Sukma smiled sweetly. "God is good. I may have been unlucky since childhood according to others, as well as for the old me. But now, I just realized. I was that lucky. God always sends me good people. Never left me alone. Although it takes a long time, it's okay. The proof is, I'm here now, now."
"I heard you helped Papa with my brother, didn't you?"
Mr. Black nodded. "Wait on! Waitaminute! I just realized something. My brother said, Mr. Hans will take responsibility for his actions at the police station. Don't tell me, you-" Sukma shut his mouth in disbelief.
Can Sukma see, the man nodded slowly. "He must be responsible. He's the mastermind of everything that's happened to you."
"You do realize, don't you, sacrifice your own family?"
Mr. Black nodded. "I knew. I just hope that once it's all out, you won't hate me."
Sukma shook his head in disbelief. How could this man go that far, just for her?
"Why are you doing this? It must hurt your family."
Mr. Black shakes. "That hurt me, my own father. He's the one who ruined our happy family with his crimes."
"But he just threatened me not to get close to you. What harm? I realized that she didn't want you to get close to my poor rich girl."
"You're wrong. You don't believe me, I just said, he's the mastermind of everything?"
Sukma of course immediately shook his head. "No way. Time's just because we're close"
"Yes, because of that. He doesn't want us to be close. He doesn't want you to get caught with his wife, if you've been here all along. He doesn't want you to take his wife into our family."
Sukma looked at Mr. Black confused. "What do you mean, Apin? It has nothing to do with me waiting! You call 'his wife'? That means your Mama, right?" Sukma re-digested Apin's words.
Apin nodded. "Yes. Mama hook me up. She-your mother. That's why my father wants to eliminate you."
Sukma gaped yak believe. The girl shook her head violently, trying to deny all Apin's words. "Apin, don't joke!" Sukma Sweat. His eyes began to dew. Body shaking.
"I'm not kidding." Reply Apin with a hoarse voice. He knew, maybe after this Sukma would stay away from him.
"No! No way!" Sukma says. Her tears started to fall, the girl squeezed her hair. "No! I don't believe it."
"Sorry."
"No! No way! Tell me this isn't true!" Broken already crying Sukma. The girl roared. Can't believe the reality that hit her. That woman, why is her trauma always because of the woman who gave birth to her? Sukma has been trying to come to terms with what the woman did in her childhood. But the reality even reveals, the trauma two years ago, again because of him.
Apin who saw it was cute crying. He approached the chaotic Sukma, Lali hugged the girl.
"You must be sick. I-i know. But this is the truth. Sorry!" Apin whispered these words in Sukma's ear. "I'm always there for you. I'm always on your side. Protecting you. I'm sorry, if all this time that's been hurting you is the one whose blood's been running through my body." Sukma. No, he doesn't hate Apin. Apin doesn't have to apologize. Wrong is that woman.
"I want to go home. Take me home, Apin. I need some time alone." Sukma felt his body so limp. The truth is so painful, and so hard to accept. He needs it himself.
