YOUNG WIFE POLICE SIR
DISAPPEARS
Light rain accompanied the cemetery, Citra was buried next to Mora's grave. Now that Amora is surrounded by her Mom and Dad, their family has reunited.
One by one, Juna embraces Tika and Ria to offer prayers instead of tears.
"Let's go home, don't be sad anymore." Juna stood with Tika and Ria who still occasionally shed tears.
"Juna's right, we're going home now. Finished our duty to deliver Mama, as a good child send prayers." Altha wiped Tika's tears, strengthening her daughter who felt lost a second time.
The family returned, trying to release Citra's departure with a strong heart.
During the grief, Hana lives with Aliya to accompany Tika who is still often aloof and daydreaming. Juna had often reprimanded, but could not stop Tika's grief.
There were many things he wanted to do, but only memories. None of his wishes came true, either too soon or he was too late.
Genta has also been trying to entertain, but Tika prefers to be alone. Not cheerful anymore, more silent and always sleeping.
It has been one week Citra's departure, the atmosphere of grief still envelops the family. Usually every day is full of excitement, but an instant becomes calm.
Jokes and laughter suddenly disappear, children are also more silent do not make trouble anymore, their spirit also suddenly disappears into children who obey also obedient.
"For Ana?"
"For Aunt Al, let's sit down for breakfast. Ana calls Tika first." Ana's smile was visible, stepping into Tika's room.
Aliya's smile was also seen, feeling pleased with Ana's presence. He helped a lot and gave a positive side.
Not yet had Ana knocked on the door, Atika had come out by herself. He wears a work shirt to start his day.
"For Mami and Papi, where are Ria and Juan?"
"So, they've gone to school, baby." Alt embraces Tika to head towards the dining table together.
"Tumben Ria woke up on time?" Tika smiled looking at Ana who was also having breakfast with them.
Aliya put food for Tika, has not entered the food into the mouth suddenly Atika immediately daydreamed.
"What's the matter, baby?"
Tika's head shook his head, putting food into her mouth looking around the house that felt quiet and silent.
"It's been a week, why hasn't Shin come?" Tika chewed on food while looking at her Mama.
"Shin's overseas, there's a problem with his business." Al only knows Shin went on business.
Tika's little laugh sounded, shaking her head. The food ran towards Diana's house.
The Di family was also having breakfast together, Tika ran to Shin's room and did not find her whereabouts.
"Atika, Shin is overseas." He stopped Tika from ransacking the room.
Tika's smile was visible, towards the dining table staring at Genta who was also staring at her. Tika's hands immediately hugged tightly no matter being the center of attention.
"Are you okay?"
"Yet, Tika has not fully recovered. Tika just misses you all." Tika closed her eyes feeling a gentle swipe on her back.
"Don't take too long, I'm sad to see you like this. Gen doesn't know how to comfort you, hurry back to being the Tika we know. You are not alone, there are many people waiting for Tika cheerful back." Genta's embrace tightly missed his lover.
"Where is Shin?"
Mam Jes asks Tika to sit down for breakfast together, Shin is overseas because of a business problem. He'll be back soon after everything's okay.
"Why does everyone believe he's abroad? Shin won't go far." Tika paid to meet Shin.
"I don't understand these two kids, now much less. Where is Shin? why did he disappear?" Gemal looked at Genta who was chasing after Tika to look for Shin.
The door of Juna's house is open, since the death of the image of the house immediately empty. Juna chose to live in his apartment, and focused on working. Just go home once in a while, then go again.
"Shin, where are you?" Tika opened all the room doors, but did not find.
"Ayang, Tika knows Shin well. While grieving, Tika was surrounded by kind and loving people, in contrast to Shin she was alone." Tika kissed Genta's cheek which immediately panicked thinking about her sister.
Aliya's screams are heard asking Tika for breakfast, Ana will accompany her to go where her destination is.
Tika's head shook her head, she had to find her best friend who might be grieving alone. Tika got into Genta's car.
"Where are we going?"
"Restaurant,"
Genta confirmed Tika's guess, most likely Shin was in the restaurant doing his busy work.
"How is Juna's condition?"
"She's fine, every day going home but coming back to her apartment." Genta often sees Juna's car parked.
Genta's hand clasped Tika's fingers, Still worried about her because for days Tika did not talk even though Genta came to visit her.
"Tik, you sure ...."
"Tika's ears hurt to hear the call Tik tik, is Tika duck?"
"Then call what?"
"That Tika, stop calling not tick." Tika's lips pouted making Genta smile.
Seeing Tika angry is better than seeing her silent without a word. Genta was happy to see Tika getting angry.
When she reached the restaurant, Tika saw that Shin's employees were already preparing to tidy up all over the place.
"Did you guys see Shin visiting the restaurant?" Tika asked everyone, but no one saw Shin.
Tika stepped upstairs, but the condition of the house was empty and abandoned. Shin couldn't possibly live in an unkempt place.
"Where is this one kid?" Tika scratched her head.
Genta checked the entire room, Shin's whereabouts were completely invisible. Tika made a call, and just listened to the ring.
"Why is the phone here?" Genta held Shin's phone.
Suddenly the message came in, Tika received a reply if Shin was meeting overseas. He'll be right back.
"If I find you, I'll make sure it's battered." Tika cursed Shin roughly making herself worry.
Tika's last choice was to contact Juna, most likely Juna saw Shin who might occasionally check on Juna's situation.
[What's Tik?]
[Sister Jun knows where Shin is?]
[Not knowing,]
Tika explained that Shin disappeared since the departure of Mama Citra, Tika also only realized that a few days before the departure of Mama Citra Shin was always together. Tika was only worried if Shin blamed himself, for the death of Mama Citra.
Shin used to be shunned by many people because he was called the son of an unlucky carrier. Anyone close to him would have bad luck.
[Why tell now? where are you now?]
[Shin's restaurant, Tika doesn't know most likely where Shin is?]
[House of his childhood probably,] Juna just guessed it, as he suddenly thought of Shin's childhood.
Tika turned off the call, her brother said there was a point. Tika was very sure Shin was there.
