The rain fell to make a puddle in some places.
Police lines have been installed, after a search for a day finally team Gus, Rio and Tony managed to find the location of Richard missing, more precisely, killed.
"Shaaahah!"
It was raining very hard that afternoon, before dark so the police with the SAR team had to work extra quickly before losing their natural light.
Rio and Tony behind a large umbrella saw the evacuation of the bodies found at the bottom of the pier.
"Drap drape!"
The sound of rain hitting the umbrella was loud, as if an enormous grain was actually dropped as much.
It's not unusual that no one found it after two years because the dock was actually closed to the public and was raising cargo ships two years ago, and due to the condition of the dock which is quite fragile even transport activities were moved to the other side, it just so happened that Cody never crossed once there.
They managed to find it because Cody saw the name of the last ship that docked two years ago there, the Alily transport ship that also stopped operating and docked two years ago because of a leak.
Rio just took a deep breath.
Two years later, a missing persons case was handed over to their team as it turned into a murder case.
And that almost settled case, successfully solved by Cody, through his dream, all of this, is still beyond the real thought of Rio.
"Heh two years.."
Tony understood that, they stood up to take a short breath as the search party managed to transport a lump of bodies with the help of a crane heavy equipment, the corpse that had become a bone wrapped in clothes from the base and lowered it on the edge.
Gus approaching.
Patted on Rio's shoulders proud of the hard work of his men.
"He you guys are great! this is going to be the topic of the month, a case where the missing person part can't be solved quickly, you're going to get double points this month" he spoke like that and then moved closer to the corpse.
Rio and Tony looked at each other, both of them knew this was not the result of their hard work, were it not for Cody, nor would they be able to think up to it, either, thinking of that the two took a deep breath together "heh"
*-*-*-*-*-*
It rained very hard.
Cody stood still in his place.
Regardless of the rain water and lightning that shook to cause the sky to glow several times.
It stands under the rain that falls unstoppably, resting under a wide, red umbrella, its dark surroundings, however, Cody was seen quite clearly under the dim chandelier that slightly swayed in the wind.
A lump of body that lives bone wrapped in worn clothes, which has been lifted and placed on the edge of the dock slowly incarnated, he said, before long turning into the figure of an adult man with a handsome face and a big smile adorning his face, he was Mr. Richard, Cody thought.
The man's face was glowing, smiling very beautifully. It was nothing more than a beam of light that formed Richard's shadow long ago as he lived.
"Cody, thank you, you're making me go now"
Cody smiled, the man was Richard, who did look very kind and charismatic like what his wife had said.
Finally, he can return intact, he can continue his journey for the next after this.
"What, you're not going back, to your house?"
Richard shakes.
"He, maybe, won't be able to, all this time, I've been trying to come back but I can't, and I, too, have let them go, heh sorry, because lately it's been making you hard, but I've been trying to, when I saw you here at that time I always tried to appear in front of you but could not, no matter how hard I tried to talk to you but could not, there was actually hurt you"
"Thank you again, Cody, you're, very well, thank you for everything" and he slowly disappears, along with the rainwater that mingles with the bright light, he can already continue his journey, which may have just begun.
Cody was relieved, as if, all the pressure that was on his chest was gone, suddenly becoming very light, his headache was also much better, he did not feel all the distress coming back.
Richard was always by his side. His ears were buzzing because of Richard's experience when a bullet penetrated his kneecap, he felt short of breath because Richard was urgently trying to communicate with him, all the unpleasant experiences that Cody had been through were Richard's.
Because of the differences in nature, Richard who died in the water, making him unable to bring himself fully in front of him, perhaps, also because of some other things that are still a mystery.
Whatever it is, Cody can now be much more relieved.
He could see the man leaving quietly in the end, hopefully.
The sound of rain is getting heavier, and it seems that it will not stop even though puddles have formed everywhere.
*-*-*-*-*
The sound of water.
.
A warm touch.
.
The fingers that touch her cheeks are soft.
Cody opened his eyes, a glimpse of the sun dazzling his eyes, but slowly as he turned he could see Riana's face forming in front of him.
The girl smiled and greeted him.
"Dear Cody dearly" softly, Cody felt the little towel that had been dipped in the warm water hit his forehead as well as his face, at least it could make him a little more comfortable.
The girl looks so bright and beautiful.
"R"
Riana smiled, since morning she had been sitting there as usual. Washing Cody's sweaty forehead and face lovingly, no one really enjoyed what he was doing like his current self.
"Cody is better? Thank God the heat has gone down, the doctor said there is no problem, Cody makes people anxious, you have slept two days and two nights"
Cody was tired, it felt like his body was crumbling into one with the bed, unable to move, very heavy.
However, despite still feeling very tormented due to her fever but Cody knew Riana was always by her side all this time, she who always held her hand, stroked her face when she was full of sweat, she said, make everything better.
A beautiful girl who loved him more than herself.
His cheeks started to get a bit taper, Cody thought, probably because of how many days he hadn't noticed the girl.
"He's sorry well, it's been bothering you"
Riana smiled, surely because of the high heat of Cody's speech nothing serious yet, she thought, lifted Cody's hand and washed it, then clasped the big palm tightly, she was sure, forever he would never let go of that hand, even if Cody pushed him as hard as he could he would stay there.
Cody closed his eyes again, he was too weak, either because of the influence of drugs or indeed because of his fever, all like continuing to sway, the bed he slept on was also like swaying slowly like a boat.
"Heh Ri" was held tightly by Riana, trying to close her eyes, although in the corner of the room she could see some black shadows looking straight at her, waiting for her, their dark air seemed to never leave, some may have been around for too long until the energy released gets darker and heavier.
In an instant, a girl, bowing her head looking at Cody close, made her very surprised but unable to speak anything due to the exhaustion that made her eyes very heavy.
"Help us" the last voice that Cody could still hear before his eyes closed tightly came back tired.
