You Decided
Yarn Unraveling

Alvino is still in his father's grave. Very messy and not ready to go from there. The man looked a lot like a madman despite wearing an expensive suit. Yes. Cry and keep stroking the headstone. That's all Alvino has done since. No one bothered him or made him quit the mess.

“Nino.” The sound was so soft. Makes Alvino sharpen his hearing. Is that a voice from heaven?

“Nino.. Its me. Do you remember me?” The soft voice said again, making Alvino immediately rub rough his face to wipe away the tears, then turned to look for the direction of the sound source.

Uh.. Her.. It's Eve's mother.

“You look so messy once, son.” Cynthia said again as she rubbed the shoulder of Alvino who was still kneeling gently. “How are you doing?”

“Mother.” Alvino stared in disbelief at the woman who had accompanied him and Little Eve many times when they played first.

“You didn't forget me it turned out.” Cynthia smiled sweetly at the kind-hearted young man. Not expecting Alvino can still do good, although surely Alvino already knows about what happened in the past. The young man still called her mother. Just like the name when they occasionally met when Alvino was still a little Nino.

Alvino then tidied up although clearly still unable to hide his messy self. Then mince words with Cynthia and finally leave Alfian's grave. Cynthia invites Alvino to talk at her place of residence.

“So all this time you guys stayed here?” Alvino stared around the house that he said was where Cynthia now lived. That means Evelyn and Alfian also live there.

“We stayed here almost last 5 years. Come in.” Cynthia allowed her young daughter to enter. There was really no feeling of hate or anything else, Cynthia had truly forgiven the past and made peace with her own life. However self-defense, it still plays a big role in mistakes that may never be forgiven.

Alvino's in. And he saw a simple house but it felt so warm. There are many pictures on the wall of the living room, including a picture of her and little Evelyn. “Today I searched for your whereabouts, and it turns out that all this time you guys are here.” Alvino rubbed the photos on display, then looked long at a photo that showed Alfian, himself and Evelyn in one picture. Memories of when they were together.

“Time is indeed so fast passing, the proof is that you have become an adult man now.” Cynthia smiled again while taking some treats for guests who were not expected to be invited to step on the pain.

“Where is Evelyn, Bu?” Alvino turned his head and found Cynthia pouring warm tea in two cups.

“Sit.. I really wanted to meet you and tell you about this. Turns out the world still wants to kindly bring me and you together by accident.”

Alvino then sat down, staring at Cynthia who seemed like she was going to say something serious.

“Somewhere from I should start telling you this, obviously you're definitely figuring out where Evelyn isn't. Evelyn's actually all around you, son. I can't hold him back from satisfying his ambition to avenge the suffering your father suffered. He's so hard to control.”

“What does that mean? Does he have a grudge against me?” Alvino was staring intensely. This is the last puzzle that must be obtained to end the strange search for Alvino so far. Let's hear what kind of story the Cynthia version will tell.

“Iya.. Your sister is very ambitious to destroy Lucatu and your relationship with them. The mental load greatly hit Evelyn's inner self, making her difficult to control herself. I've run out of ways to prevent it.”

Cynthia then started telling me everything. Telling everything from the beginning, it tells how the little family is suffering with all the limitations they have in a small and remote village. They can't leave or change their fate to get out of there because of Ken's power. Their lives are full of pain. Even to give Evelyn a decent life they can't afford.

Cynthia also recounted when someone came to their house and offered to get them out of the cursed village. Spending life for the better yet having requirements as well. Who would miss such a golden opportunity? Of course they accept. They want.

Alfian, Chyntia, and Evelyn were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief as they arrived at the city after many years of living in the cursed village. They all changed identities so that the departure from the village was not sniffed by anyone let alone Ken. That's why Evelyn's name became Laura.

For years Laura was taught how to deal with life in the city, applying new habits to move on with life. And slowly Eve began to find out why their lives could be as miserable as that in exile. It was all because of Monica and Ken. Those who made Eve and her family's life suffer. They are people who have no conscience.

Alfian should have loved Eve more and Cynthia who was clearly his family. Who accompany in the grief of their struggle to survive. Not even remembering those criminals.

When Alfian went before God that's where Eve went crazy. In addition to being depressed because he was left dead, but his heart was injured for what Alfian did at the end of his life. Eve had even intended to end her life full of endless suffering, unable to bear to accept the other sufferings that would befall her and Chyntia.

Until finally Bianca and her aunt stopped Eve's actions, trying as much as possible to get the girl with thousands of mental burdens to undo her intentions. That's where it all started, Eve and Bianca went to the town where Lucatu was. Two girls who both have mental burdens due to problems created by their parents pit their fate to set their intentions straight. Eve wants revenge on Alvino and Lucatu, while Bianca wants revenge on her parents by destroying her own life.

Cynthia told everything vividly. And the storyline is the same as what Alvino got from Ken and Monica. From the story that Cynthia elaborated, Alvino was able to draw a common thread that Alfian had loved her so much. It could be concluded as well that Evelyn had a grudge with a strong reason. The little girl only needed to be made aware so that she could accept the god fate line that had been given to her.

“So you really know Bianca too?”

“Iya, she is my sister's daughter.”

Ahaa.. The story is the same as Bianca. Which means they all say honesty.

“I hope you will forgive Evelyn's behavior like that. Also forgive our past.” Cynthia looked embarrassed. I am so ashamed to face Alvino. Seeing Alvino as if seeing Monica and returning makes Cynthia remember her sins in the past.

“Mamy and daddy have also forgiven the past, so have I.” Alvino smiled kindly. Eventually the conflict gained a bright spot. One more step left is to awaken Evelyn and bring the girl back to the path of goodness.

“Then I will contact Sam first, who knows Laura is with him.” Alvino reached into his pocket to pick up his cellphone which had been neglected since. I'm gonna call Sam to ask Laura where she is. Gosh darn. Actually Alvino still did not expect that the sister he had been looking for was Laura. Laura is Sam's lover whom she hates. Laura's a bad girl who's a bad influence on Sam. But Alvino can respond wisely, what Laura does is there is a reason. And luckily they were able to find out earlier before Evelyn did anything worse. “Gosh! Turns out my phone was left in the car.”

“You're still like a little Nino who sometimes forgets to put important things.” Cynthia smiled as well, however they had once spent time together when little Alvino was forcefully brought by Alfian first.

“Let me take it first.” Alvino got up from his seat. A second later, he sat back down. “Wait, it looks like I missed something.” Alvino stared intensely at Cynthia. “Who is the one who came to your house and made an offer so that you can get out of that damned village? and what kind of requirements are meant here?”
