Two Traitors
Eps. 55 RESTART

Pov Arfan

Long standing, weighing whether or not I took a shower, seeing the unclean water and incomplete toiletries, made me think over and over again, to do just that.

"Don't take a long shower! kayak a virgin." said Saiful who sounded from the kitchen.

I also started to undress, then flush with yellowing water, Somehow the water can be like that. If my body does not feel sultry, Maybe I will delay my bathing activities.

10 Minutes passed, finally I finished the bath, then I used my clothes loaned by Mr. Umar yesterday. After finishing wearing my clothes, I came out of the bathroom.

"Terrorok very much! change your clothes! if the scabbard leave it alone, it's still clean, right?" Said Saiful who saw me still wearing the shirt yesterday, then he gave me a long-handed t-shirt.

I just stared pushyly at him, not expecting him to notice me like this.

"You don't have to say thank you and remember! the cave is still normal." explained Saiful while entering the bathroom, not caring about me who was still standing. then heard a splash of water that hit someone's body.

I also took off the clothes belonging to Mr. Umar, then replaced them with clothes loaned by Saiful, after changing clothes, I sat in the living room, which measured 2x2 meters.

Twenty minutes passed, finally Saipul came out of the kitchen, while wiping his wet hair with a towel. Then he went into the room, before long he returned wearing a cocoa shirt, a sarong, and a towel, complete same pecinya.

"Where are you going?" i asked.

"We go to the mosque first, you if you want to pray, here alone!" Saiful.

"No, I want to come to the mosque, just praying ashar I've learned congregational prayer."

"Well, yes! let's go to the mosque first, then we will go to the house of Mr. Umar. We all sleep there."

*****

The next morning, after Saiful gave me breakfast, she immediately bailed to find her life. While I was silent, fretting over what steps I should take in the future, There is no way I continue to lament the events that have passed.

I raised my body, then took the stick I had kept on the wall, to retrain my legs which had started to hurt less.It may be true, what Mr. Umar said, he said, the wounds I suffered, will heal in the next two or three days.

I began to learn to walk in the yard, As I did yesterday, I continued to train my feet to support my body, so that I could return to my original life.

After feeling tired, I also went back to the terrace, which is made of bamboo, to rest first.

While resting, I kept thinking about how to repay karla's kindness, I couldn't possibly keep quiet, let alone the rapist incident happened in my mother's office. I had to quickly take action, so that the problem could quickly be resolved and not evaporate.

After my energy was collected again, I got up to close the door of Mr. Umar's house, then locked it from the outside.

After feeling safe, I walked down the Gang Street, looking for someone to ask something, there happened to be fathers who were tidying up the garbage, which he might just take.

"Sorry Sir! I want to ride on it, if Mom's house is next door huh?" I asked while mangosteen, a sign of respect for the older people.

"This is his house!" the man answered while pointing at the house before him.

"Oh sorry! thank you sir!" I said as I passed near the house that had just been appointed by the fathers.

"Assynnya!" I said my greetings after being at the door.

"Assynnya!" I repeated my greeting again, after no reply. But not long after that finally the door of the house Miss Narti opened, then out the little boy who yesterday gave me a meal.

"Mother where's Dek?" I asked while looking at the little guy.

"I don't know, maybe it's grand." explained the boy without the slightest look on the face he showed.

"When he's coming home"

"I don't know, I'll be here again!" he said, closing the door again. Not caring about me who was still standing staring in wonder at him.

"Maybe soon go home" said the fathers who had told the whereabouts of Ms. Narti's house.

"Oh yes, sir! thank you." I said, then I sat on the wall between the alley and Mother Narti's porch.

"What do you want, looking for Miss Narti?" he asked the man to start socializing.

"No sir, I just want to leave the keys to Mr. Umar's house."

"I want to learn the way a bit far, so I can recover quickly." My answer.

"Yes, wait a minute, later if it's time for me to go home."

I just nodded, then fell silent restlessly, afraid that she would not go home according to the schedule, but after a long wait, the man finally came, holding a sack on his shoulder. I got up from my seat, saluting the gallant woman who had just returned from the battle.

"Son Arfan!" he said with a friendly smile, then he let go of the burden that was on his shoulders.

"Yes ma'am, I want to ask you to help me." I started to express my intentions and goals.

Cklek!

The door of Ms. Narti's house opened, then her son appeared, carrying a bottle of cold water with his glass.then the little boy kept the drink in front of his mother.

"The glass is one more pic. for this brother!" exclaimed mother.

"Yes, well ma'am." replied the little boy, running back into his house, then no matter how long he returned with a glass in his hand.

Patently the child poured water into the glass, then he went back into the house.

"Drink Fan!" bargain Mother Narti while taking her glass, then sip the water until it runs out, making her face look fresh again.

I nodded, then took my glass, and drank it, following what Narti's mother did.

"Oh yeah! sorry what was I gonna do for you?" asked Narti's mother while looking curiously at me.

"Fear Mr. Umar will come home later in the afternoon, so I want to take the keys to his house because I want to finish my business first. Maybe in the afternoon I'll be back here.

"Oh so! where's the key."

I gave Mr. Umar the key to the house, then I said goodbye, not forgetting to say many thanks for helping me.

I walked on an armpit stick, ushered in by Mother Narti's gaze. I continued walking down the Gang. My limited footwork, so I could only walk slowly.

Struggling, I finally reached the Highway. I saw many cars passing by Lalang, also seen some passing taxis.I continued to scan the area, determine the location where I am now.

After remembering and paying attention to the surrounding area, I began to understand that I was now near my mother's office.

I raised my hand, when there was a taxi passing by me. But unfortunately the car did not stop, I tried several times, but the results were still nil. The car was no stop at all, no one stopped at all, it makes me feel weird why that happened.

I began to try to notice the clothes I was wearing now, which were only wearing long-sleeved shirts, and sarongs, coupled with the armpit sticks supporting my body.

"Oh God! is this how I am now, until people don't want to help me." I said in my heart, maybe this is how the poor all the trouble.

The sun was very hot, because time was approaching noon. But I kept trying to stop the taxi passing in front of me.

Long time trying, finally there was a taxi that stopped right in front of me.

I quickly approached the taxi and pulled the door handle, but the door did not open, feeling strange, then I walked towards the front door.

"Where are you going?" the taxi driver asked, looking at me.

"To priya Semanan, sir!" my answer.

"Why go to elite housing, begging there, huh?" asked the man while staring cynically.

"No sir, I have business there."

"Oh, don't have money to pay the fare?"

"Mister, I'll pay more."

"Well, let me see where the money is?" the driver said, as if he couldn't believe I had the money.

Got such a question, I just fell silent confusedly staring at the man who asked.for now let alone money, to eat only I expect from others.

"Based on the gil4, fortunately the cave asked first. Later can-can cave loss." grunted the taxi driver while lowering the handbrake, then without any more words, he left me, who was still staring sadly in the direction of his departure.
